[Q] Method to root Xt902 (201m) ? - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone. One fresh Noob here.
I kinda decided to buy razr m which is japanese version. xt902...201m whatever.
However I heard that this specific model for softbank is unable to gain root.
I've never seen a device unable to root, so it's kinda confusing.
Is there anyone who found the way to root xt902?

Try the motochopper method at droidrzr.com

Hello. I also have the 201M and already tried the motochopper. After the CMD says successfull and reboots, I open SU and get an error message about the binarys. I can't update them so far, so I still don't have Root access.
Any suggestions?
Regards

Thx for the files... I'll try to look for how to manually flash it. Otherwise I'll ask again. Nevertheless, I'll let you know the answer. Thank you!

Any luck on rooting and unlocking this? I just got to Japan a few weeks ago and this was the first phone I got. I later switched carriers and got the S4, but I want to work on this phone first.

Un-root CDMA Hero (Sprint)

I have an HTC Hero running Fresh 0.7 with the two-part patch applied. I would like to un-root the phone if at all possible. I have attempted using the RUU utility, but received an error code 170 when I ran it. The error indicates a USB connection issue, but the phone is definitely plugged in and has all drivers installed (I have the SDK and ADB drivers installed).
Can anyone give me a hand restoring my phone? Any help is greatly appreciated.
try booting into fastboot mode (hold vol up and power on) then run the RUU utility. This method has saved me at one point!
saved me too! I got into a pickle when i flashed a cyanogen 6 rom. The rom worked but for some reason my sdcard would not mount, keep getting
E: can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk0
p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk0)
so then i tried fastboot and made sure usb was connected ( fastboot devices )
and still had problems.... fastboot failed, remote: not allow .. so after a couple of days reading forums i tried running my phone in fastboot usb ( made sure was connected through command on pc ) then ran Hero_C_Sprint_2.27.651.5_R_2.1update.exe utility and Bam! Loaded up back into stock. haven't had any problems and my sdcard works again
Fastboot mode has always worked for me. (Volume UP + Power On)
i have a question, i am taking my phone back to sprint today and if i just flash the RUU will it be fine, or will i have to unroot it??

it's right there in the thread you linked to.
1. Simply rename this to HERCIMG.zip and place on the root of your SDCard.
2. Power your phone completely off.
3. Press and Hold VOL DOWN and POWER until your phone boots into HBoot mode.
4. Wait for it to verify the zip, then click <ACTION> (Trackball) to update, or <SEND> (Green Call) to cancel.

If your running Windows 7 and get error 170 just exit out of the program, unplug, plug it in and rerun the program. That's what worked for me.

[Q] [i9505G] Rooting GE S4?

**Update**
ivanoterra and myself have both used CF-Auto Root on our GE S4's and we both can confirm that it has worked.
this is the file we used: http://download.chainfire.eu/316/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.zip
**update 2**
More good news, I flashed TWRP using Odin and it worked! TWRP found here: http://www.teamw.in/project/twrp2/182
**OP below **
Hi folks,
Just got my GE S4 this morning. So far it's awesome. The only problem is that I'm so eager to root this phone and I cannot find any information on how to do it. Any ideas? I'm doubting it's as simple as just using the same method as the regular S4's, but I could easily be wrong.
Also, any information on whether there will be a sub-forum for the GE phones?
Thanks!
Same here
Im on the same road...

I think we'll have to wait for a custom recovery before we can root, methinks.
If you're feeling saucy, you can try 'fastboot oem unlock' and see what that does? (Warning: it may wipe your device, it does for my nexus 10)
EDIT: Looks like auto-root does fastboot oem unlock if you're not unlocked.

Ill try that in a moment... Its recovering my apps... Its like 250 apps.. Its on 32%...
But i guess it wont show as custom, GE edition has a Unlocked Bootloader. It was made to be custom rom friendly....
Even if it counts... It wont matter... Probably a counter reseter will solve it...
Didn't work.

Nooooo... You dont know how to flash ?
read the instructions there:
- Download and unzip the CF-Auto-Root-....zip file (see posts below this one)
- If you end up with a recovery.img and cache.img file, you've extracted twice. You need to end up with a .tar.md5 file - don't extract that one
- (USB) Disconnect your phone from your computer
- Start Odin3-vX.X.exe
- Click the PDA button, and select CF-Auto-Root-....tar.md5
- Put your phone in download mode (turn off phone, then hold VolDown+Home+Power to boot - if it asks you to press a button to continue, press the listed button, or run adb reboot download command)
- (USB) Connect the phone to your computer
- Make sure Repartition is NOT checked
- Click the Start button
- Wait for Android to boot
- Done (if it took you more than 30 seconds, you need practise!)
(KILL ALL KIES PROCESSES... Before proceding...)

I know how. I've done it many times before this. While flashing, odin crashed. :crying:
Is it possible to flash the GE firmware on the international version? If yes does anyone have a guide?
Okay, it worked. Thought my phone was bricked. I used a different version of Odin and it stopped crashing and worked.
I can now confirm that Auto Root works on the GE S4!
Download mode shows that I'm on a custom binary now. It still says "Write Protection: Enable"
I'm curious to find out what that means. The bootloader is already unlocked. I wonder if a certain partition is locked.
I guess the next question to answer is: Can we use the same recoveries as the i9505? I hope so..

Would you be willing to try out Triangle Away to see if it'll reset the custom binary counter? I also wonder if you do fastboot oem unlock if it'll turn off write protection?

I might be wrong but I don't think download mode supports fastboot. Either that, or I'm doing something wrong. With my phone in download mode and my S4 connected, the command "fastboot devices" doesn't show any devices, but when I plug my N4 in, it shows up. Is there a special fastboot mode that is different from download mode?

[Q] L01F no download mode, no usb reading.

Hello. Please help me. I have a Japanese version of G2 (L-01F - DoCoMo) and i tried to flash an european version of kitkat because i couldn't update in OTA. Now the phone is bricked, it is bootlooping, the Download Mode doesn't work, it shows a few of blue dots and it stays there (the phone can't be recognized on PC using the USB cable). I can enter the Recovery Mode (the grey screen with LG logo) where the phone can be read by PC and using ADB tool is shown as "recovery". I can't use fastboot.exe because the device is not being recognized. What can i do? Thank you very much.

Actually i'm trying to repair it since October 2014. No-one knows the solution. I went to 3 different GSM Services and they don't know what to do...
So...when i'm trying to put it in download mode it stays like this and the PC doesn't recognize it.
The only way to connect the phone to the computer is to put it in recovery mode (Backup & Restore) by holding Volume Up and Power Button at the same time with the phone turned off. It should appear something like this. The PC recognizes the phone but only in ADB. Look.
The third possible screen, which also is useless is this by typing in the CMD the following: "adb reboot recovery" (click). Here, the PC doesn't recognize the phone too.
Fastboot doesn't work.
And that's my problem. I don't know what to do.

I don't understand the part I bold. Is it bootloop still, even after flashing a stock ROM via Odin successfully? That's weird!

Yes mate, I think its needed to be enabled. Still you can try and see if your phone shows up on ADB or not, there will be a six or eight digit code appearing on the ADB screen if the phone is successfully connected, but I guess you know that already by reading that topic.
You can ask ADB related queries in that topic too, I guess.
Do update here whatever happens.

So you type adb device, and the device isn't showing up? Ah, that's normal I guess, knowing you can't turn on USB Debugging. I am out of help sadly. You need to get in touch with more advanced users now. I don't know if it's possible to turn on a phone's USB debugging mode without booting into the OS. You could ask in that topic though.

[HELP] LG Spirit H440N cannot access to Download mode

Hi everyone, i have a big problem. Today i was trying to help a firend of mine by unlocking his bootloader on this phone but i got a strange message when i was trying to boot in Download mode. The message was:
"fastboot init( )
loading keystore failed status 5 usb init ept @ 0x8f20700
udc_start( )
fastboot: processing commands"
Basically it doesn't allowed me to enter in Download mode, so no reverting to v10f software, no pushing aboot, no twrp and no Marshmallow zip. Nothing at all, i could do nothing. In the following lines i will tell you what i did and tried:
1) Using different PC usb ports, no way to make it work
2) Using different cables, no way to make it work
3) Trying to boot in Download mode by removing battery and try without it, desperate, obviously no way to make it work
I spent two hours trying to find a way to make it work but i failed miserably...so i'm here hoping someone better than me can help me.
NOTES:
The phone was on original Lollipop firmware v10e (Italy) but rooted.
Basically i did nothing, just tried to put it in download mode (Vol - and plug usb in), tried also other ways but nothing showed up
When the phone is connected to pc (when it's on) it charges only, don't show the option to use mtp so... i think adb won't work
Hope it can help and hope you can help! XD

Upload mode is phone off, press VOL+ and then plug the USB.

Can you give more details? How can I access that repair mode and how to use adb commands on it? I have a bricked board that I want to put back on use.

Hi, i tried vol + but the phone just boots... i will try again and let you know in the evening
When device is off hold Vol- and power key until LG logo appear, then release the keys and hold them again, its really hard to time it correctly, but if you do you will get a factory reset option, on that screen you navigate using Vol+ and - buttons and power button is ok

Thank you, after the factory reset the combination Vol+ and USB worked (after a few try) and i was able to boot in Download mode, then i flashev v10f, rooted and pushed modified aboot, flashed twrp 1.1.0 with flashify (twrp official app failed many times) and finally installed v20b and supersu. Everything works as expected =)

Try to boot into download mode, if you can. Turn off your device then press and hold vol. Up and plug in the cable.

Do you have twrp installed on your phone ? If, yes try to boot into it.
I have a similar problem with my LG Spirit. When it tries to boot, it shows an error message: Boot Verification Fail, DIFFERENT_HASH... After that it just restarts endlessly... I can't enter download mode, because the computer doesn't recognize it when I plug it in via usb cable... The only thing I can do is to get to the hard reset screen, but that is useless because it just restarts and shows the same error mentioned above... I'm out of ideas, the only thing that comes to my mind is to try and see if Ubuntu recognizes it, but then again, there's no LG Flash Tool made for Linux, or is there?
Sorry for mistakes, english is not my native language.

If your pc doesn't recognise it, try to find an another computer that you can try it on .

Thank's for your reply. I did just that, but without success... I also tried to do what MadjijaHacker wrote, but I can't get it right. I mean, I can enter in hard reset, but can't get to download mode. It seems that my phone is dead...
