Clover view mode requires some drivers did you installed it (I don't remember, It's something like RNDIS )

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?

So i'm trying to unlock my bootloader, I found a way and saw I had to boot into bootloader, instead it showed "Downloading, Do not turn off target!" with text in the top left talking about Odin. Long story short I gave up and went to sleep, the next day (today) I decided to boot into recovery (not custom recovery, default) and clicked on "boot into bootloader". Last time I did this it showed the bootloader, it showed the android lying on it's back with its front opened. But then it just went to "Downloading, "again.
I have an Samsung Galaxy Tab A Rooted (Includes Busybox) 5.0.2 Lollipop Stock Touchwiz.

"adb reboot bootloader" run in debian terminal (device is recognized by laptop), it merely reboots to system?

Once again, the T580 DOES NOT USE FASTBOOT!!! To flash TWRP you need to use Samsung's Odin software on a Windows PC or Heimdall on Linux.
As the title says, my phone just boots till asus logo and switches off. The battery was 15% at night. I woke up and there was no juice left. So I kept my phone for charging. The phone just boot loops with big battery icon with no charging animation. Even the recovery doesn't work. I tried flashing via fastboot mode. My phone was already unlocked. But during fastboot, it says FAILED (remote: 'Error flashing partition : Write Protected'). Any help? Yes, I'm using usb 2.0 port.

Check whether your usb port is 3.0, fastboot needs usb 2.0 ports for fastboot commands.

Anyone? Please help us, I'm also in this kind of situation with OP. I still can't use Asus Flash Tool because it needs internet connection I'm just borrowing my cousin's PC and they don't have internet broadband either.
I'm wondering if it also gives an error "write protected" like on Fastboot CMD. And if it does I think our last resort is to flash with QFIL.
If I am right, you'll updated to the 073 pie version of the stock software, which bricked the devices.?

Hi all,
So basically I was trying to install Pixelexperience to my Note 7 today and I messed it up big time. So I was having some issues with TWRP and one of the solutions (according to posts I found on Google) was to update the phone firmware. So I went to do that. Downloaded the lavander firmware for my Note 7, put it in the folder with other stuff I was downloading. One of these was firmware for Redmi A5 (which I didn't notice) and ended up flashing that. Now my phones screen is dead (I guess the rest of it also?). When I plug it in to PC the PC produces the sounds that something connected but running fastbood / adb devices doesn't return anything. I tried multiple times booting to fastboot / recovery but I have no idea when the phone is on or off. So it just produces sound on PC that it disconnected and connected like 1 second after but nothing still shows up on fastboot.
Did anyone had similiar issue and is there anything I can do? Or should I go look for a new phone?
Thank you for your time
