Hello. I just purchased a Droid x for le gf off of CL. The bootloader is version 29.01. Is there any reason I should update this to 30.whatever? Thanks in advance.

if you want to run any of the GB based roms then yes but otherwise no. the botloader gets upgraded via OTA so if you do update it be careful to NOT take the .621 OTA as you will not be able to root if you do. The highest OTA you want is .602 or .605
I have a droid 2 non global. I had all ota updates and now i cant root my phone. I have tried everything, even the droid 3 root and nothing. Anyone else having this issue since the latest update? I am stuck and need this bloatware gone. And i want a good ROM. Please help..

If you installed the most recent update without using Voodoo RootKeeper to back up your root, you're up the creek without a paddle because the newest update breaks root and changes the bootloader so you can't SBF.

Thanks. That explains it!

What firmware? Updating to .621 will probably fix your wifi issues. This was one of tha main fixes with that update.
Make sure to install ota rootkeeper and follow instructions, if you are rooted.

I lost root after the update. Re-ran motofail2go, root is back...

I get the message that I do not have enough room to download the update. I did a factory reset and only installed ota rootkeeper and supersu. Any suggestions as to what to do?

If you have some frozen vzw apps you may have to unfreeze them before the update.
I used OTA Rootkeeper and it did NOT keep my root. When I tried to restore the root, it said that root had been restored, but nothing happened. Tried a reboot and ran it again, same issue. Ran the motofail2go and root was restored.
I thought I had kept root, but after a reboot I lost it. I have run the exploit several times and can't gain root again. Did a factory reset and still can't get it. HELP!
Reloading the stock firmware in RSD Lite. Let's see how this goes.
Edit: OK, back to original firmware. Root worked. Restoring from TiBU and will try root keeper and this update one more time...
Edit 2: OTA Root keeper worked. Latest firmware + root!
I can confirm OTA root keeper worked perfectly after updating. Even after rebooting recovery shows 1/1 rooted.

That's weird. I wonder why.. I tried it on my brothers phone, reboot and confirmed that it also held root. You are using OTA root keeper and running it before hitting update right?

Used OTA... protected root.....then did temp unroot before applying update
After phone rebooted it said failed

so is this small update pushed to allow use with the new isis wallet app?
from what i understood, the dinc 4g lte was the only working device on verizon and saw plans that the razr hd and maxx hd were to be added by the end of last week. can someone with either the razr hd or maxx hd that has the ota update search play for isis wallet and see if its available now on your device?
thanks in advance
(i'm planning on buying the razr hd monday)

sweet. at least there is progress being made on verizons part.
seems like swapping sim card shouldn't be too difficult for verizon to accomplish, lol. you never know though.
any chance someone could try using that ota rootkeeper app to hide root and then try installing isis wallet app?
i live in salt lake where isis wallet is being tested and am curious, sorry for all the questions. kinda excited to get the phone monday. feels like christmas coming or something lol.

the app is supposed to check for root as seen in the third paragraph here:
PCMag article for ISIS Wallet
i'm guessing the update was to enable the ability to use this new app.
No go launching Isis with root disabled using OTA root keeper. I get the warning message that says my phone doesn't meet the requirements. It doesn't specify which requirement fails so can't say if it's detecting root or if there's something else missing.
Is that all the new update is? isis wallet?
