So I as working on theming the Adeo ROM and must have messed something up. I didn't think it had to do with the framework files I had pushed so I did a factory reset to clear off all the 3rd party apps from the phone.
Well, since that reset, I can't access the phone in ADB, settings FC's, Market FC's, and I can't download/install an APK because of the security restrictions.
The phone is "functional", I can place/receive calls/sms and use the browser. USB to the PC works for everything except getting ADB access. I verified I can get it to recognize for RSDLite and for Fastbook so I figure using one of those methods should (eventually) provide me an avenue to get my phone 100% functional again.
Does anyone happen to have or know where I could find signed files for Fastboot to replace the entire /system partition or an SBF file to flash the phone back to stock? Or possibly any other solutions?
Also, before I get flamed as a n00b who broke a phone, I've worked on over a dozen different Android handsets and I was well aware I was working without a safety net. This is NOT my primary phone so if I need to I can patiently wait for an SBF to leak. I'm just checking to see if anyone knows any solutions already so I can get back to theming.
Sounds to me like a permissions issue. I had that after I fiddled with the contacts database to unrestrict pictures from third party apps. I would double check any files you modified and make sure they got chmod'ed back to what they should be.
You will have to somehow access the Settings to re-enable adb. When you did a factory reset, you disabled USB Development (aka adb).
For now the only known way to recover is through adb. No fastboot or signed update.zip for now.

When I lost ADB access because of a hard reset (I think), this is what I did to fix my issue: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=974824
I never lost root after a hard reset so I went to the market and bought root explorer and sqlite editor and copied the adbd to the /sbin folder to fix adb. I then bought sqlite editor and followed this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=972760 to re-enable side loading of apps. To install apps that I had the apk's for.
I still lose adb after a reset, but I can copy the adbd file to the /sbin folder and adb works again until I reset the phone.
I made a post about losing adb access on the motorola support forums: https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/332307#332307 to see if there were any solutions, but Mark said he would get back to me after trying to reproduce my problem.
I hope this helps.
I think I'm just up **** creek without a paddle for the moment because I can't connect via ADB, the Market force closes, and the security restrictions won't let me side-load any applications via download from the browser. I can't manually add ADB because I have no way to move the files to where they need to be.
Thanks for the replies! airbillion, I'm following your thread at the Motorola Owners' Forum to!

No problem. That sucks, I'm not sure what you can do. Hopefully motorola or someone here will get a sbf soon so we can mess with our phones and have a way to fully recover. I hope you get it working again. Good luck!

Requires USB Debugging to be enabled, but I have no access to enabled it due to Settings force closing and no ADB access in pre-boot.
Could you download Android Terminal Emulator 's apk to your sdcard, then install it using a apk install you may already have that work.
If you can get any terminal access from your phone, do a su, then launch /sbin/adbd. This should hopefully give you adb shell access. Without needing to enable USB debugging.

It won't let me install a downloaded APK because of the security restriction.
If you have an SD card, try booting into recovery with an update.zip on the file.
I can get into the recovery, but the update.zip file needs to be signed. I created one that will push the original copies of the framework files I was working with but it won't install because it's signed with test keys. The stock recovery 3e needs update.zip files signed with the manufacturer release-keys which only Motorola has.
https://supportforums.motorola.com/thread/46051?tstart=30
I started a thread on the official Motorola Owner's Forum in hopes I can find a full factory restore method for the OS. It's unfortunate that unlike HTC and other manufacturers who release full wipe RUU files Motorola has chosen to keep their restore files internally.
http://www.4shared.com/file/7YXo_gmO/update.html
That's the link to the update.zip file I was trying to use that fails because it's only signed with test-keys.

Greeting,
It was heard that rooting T-01D are similar as F-05D.
I found a website regarding rooting F-05D, but I dont read Japanese, just want to know if anyone have tried the enclosed method to root T-01D?
or could anybody do the translation, since the terms become quite strange after using the online translators
The following link is ref. of rooting F-05D:
ttp://ayati.cocolog-nifty.com/blog/2012/01/f-05droot-1d0b.html
(should be "http" rather than "ttp")
The source code of T-01D have been provided also, but I have no idea how to use it and root the machine:
ttp://spf.fmworld.net/oss/t-01d/data/download.html
(should be "http" rather than "ttp")
Thank you very much in advance?
Update of 4/4
the following t-01d rooting procedures is provided by Magimaster
Hello.
I am sending this pm regarding the translation for flashing the Fujitsu f-05d sold by Docomo in Japan. I cannot reply in the development section due to my low post count.
My phone is an f-05d. I do not have a t-01d but, according to the original rooting guide for the f-05d, the users are reporting success in rooting the t-01d as well.
I will not really translate for you. Rather, I will explain what I did to root my f-05d.
Here is a rough summary of the steps I followed:
For starters, you need to make sure that adb recognizes your phone when connected to the PC via USB. This means that you need to install the Android SDK and the USB driver for your t-01d by Fujitsu.
I had trouble getting adb to recognize my phone, as Window$ insisted in recognizing it as an USB drive. What I did, among other things, was:
In the phone settings, go to Applications > Development and check USB Debigging and Stay awake.
Install the Google USB Driver package, in the extras section of the Android SDK Manager.
With the phone connected to the PC, go to Window$ device manager > Universal Serial Bus Controllers and uninstall (use the delete key from your the keyboard) every mass storage device that appeared when my phone was connected. Disconnect and reconnect the usb cable.
Only until I did this final step was my phone recognized and listed as Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface in the device manager. If your device is not recognized, you just cannot continue. Look for help about this, or else you cannot move on with this method of rooting.
Confirm that your phone is recognized as Android Phone > Android Composite ADB Interface in the Window$ device manager. Do not continue until it is.
From the Android SDK manager, install the package android sdk platform-tools.
You need download F05Droot.zip from the original blog page your linked before. I will not link to the file directly, but you should have no problem finding it. Extract the files within into the program directory \Android\android-sdk\platform-tools (this is my path).
You need to download a replacement for the file lsm_disabler.ko that is inside the F05Droot.zip. Get it from here and extract it an replace the one inside the platform-tools directory.
By the way, this platform-tools directory is the one that has the adb executable file. Just a heads up.
You need to download su. I cannot tell you where to get it. I just do not know where I got mine from, but was easy so go for it When you have it, extract it and put it in the platform-tools directory.
Confirm that the platform-tools directory includes these files:
Code:
adb.exe
AdbWinApi.dll
AdbWinUsbApi.dll
su
lsm_disabler.ko
f05dsu.bat
There will be more, but these are the ones needed for this to work.
Now, get ready to root. Connect your phone to the PC.
Go to your phone settings > setting my body > step/activity counter app > pedometer use and confirm it is checked on.
In the platform-tools directory, look for f05dsu.bat and run it. A DOS window will open. This is the funny part. Unless you are doing this from a Japanese version of Window$, or from a Window$ with Japanese locale active, you will see a lot of strange symbols instead of Japanese characters... which would be the same for almost anyone anyway Regardless, you will see a prompt to Press any key to continue . . .. At this point, you do not need to do anything on your phone, other than visually checking that the check mark on the pedometer is set.
On the DOS window press any key, your will see more garbage and another prompt to press any key. This is the important part. See if you can find among all those symbols this pattern: OFF/ON. If you do see it, it means we are on track.
Now that you were able to see the OFF/ON, go to your phone and uncheck the pedometer (OFF) and check it again (ON).
In the DOS window, press any key. Your phone will reboot. The message in the DOS window says that you must wait for the phone to boot up and for Window$ to recognize your usb connection to the phone.
When/if your phone is recognized by Window$, go to the DOS window and press any key.
Again, press any key and your phone will reboot.
The DOS window has a message indicating that you must now install superuser and busybox. When your phone reboots, go to the android market and install from there when you have the time.
You can now close the DOS window because, unless there was any error, you are now rooted, my friend
From the market, install a terminal, or an app that includes a terminal. I use Rom Toolbox because it has a terminal and scripts to mount the /system as rw.
Open whatever terminal you chose and, at the $ prompt type su
If new prompt is #, type soff
You will need to run these commands every time before trying to mount /system as rw.
That is all. I hope you can root your phone.
Just a petition, post this message in the forums, as it may help others who have similar difficulties. It sure could have helped me if someone had done before me.
Have a nice one and please forgive my English.

update 15/4
On 13/4 finally i got my phone rooted
I have to run f05droot.bat instead of f05dsu.bat
After I have run the f05dsu.bat, for the steps, no error popout.
then I open the terminal type su, it reply me "permission denied".
I know it is not successful, after several run, the situation still the same.
after that have checked the contents of f05droot.bat and f05dsu.bat.
They are very similar but the f05droot.bat will push the superuser and busybox into the device at the same time.
(so I added those files in the directory \Android\android-sdk\platform-tools )
Therefore, i tried that and its works finally.
I feel really exciting at that moment.
I hope this post can help they T-01d user to root the phone.
personally I really like this phone ^~^
the su file is also important
Anyone try it? Does it work?
I have got the source code from its web
But I dont know how to use that and lead me to root the machine
ttp://spf.fmworld.net/oss/t-01d/data/download.html
Can you post a review of this device?

If you have time, can you please post a mini review of the device? I wanted to buy one too and I'm quite excited reading your review!
Thanks and more power!
Here is the mini review
Screen color is perfect except black and accurate. Speed is good in comparing with SGS2. Battery life is similar to SGS2. Form factor is better than SGS2. Camera is outstanding, thanks to the 1.3MP camera. Waterproofing design is what I like. The bad is upgrading is only possible in Japan. Digital TV is useless. Sound level is a bit low.
personally i like this phone very much especially the outlook.
my personal review is the following:
1. same as above the screen is perfect
2. the camera is also excellent
3. while you have a phone call, it change mode automatically depends on the environment
4. if i switch off all the data things, this phone can stand more than one day
(so i wont blame the battery, because I think we use too many network related stuffs)
5. i have to admit that the firmware is not quite stable (fortunately the phone can be upgrade to 4.0 after july)
for the rooting process, it seems like someone has success:
(i think that is temp root)
search "T-01D 軟解, tofu-keitai" in google (that is chinese unfortunately)

hi HaoyuWen,
i have followed the steps, when i type su in the terminal simulator, it comes out segmentation fault su, do you have any idea.
I use titanium backup to check and it said my t-01d is not rooted.
for the pedometer on/off things, do i need to press the home key and go back to the pedometer to do the switch?
Thank you very much in advance

I think I brick my T-01D. Don' know why, I do exactly the same what I have been told here... Now It ends up infinite boot loop
Anybody help me please?
Hey there everyone, sadly this guide isn't working for me. Everything in the guide goes smoothly and I do exactly what is listed but after my phone reboots the final time I still have no root access. I run f05droot.bat instead of f05dsu.bat like the user said but to no avail, I even ran f05dsu.bat and still nothing.
Anyone else have trouble? Maybe it is because I am on a certain FW? I am on 2.3.5
Baseband Version C_L1_M23
Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 [email protected] #1
and Build number is V43R41C
Just wondering as I really want root to disable all of these RAM-hogging default applications.
Bump? Anyone?
As far as I know, this rooting method cannot be done on FW V43R41C.

Aw Thanks for the notice, of course it's my firmware. Any idea about ICS? It was supposed to come out in July but yeah..
I don't know about ICS for t-01d. My sc-01d has been already upgraded to ICS, the performance is improved a lot. sh-01d also gets ICS today.

I see, I read about the T-01D (among many others) getting updated from articles like this: http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/e.../docomo-update-ics-4-0-18-models-3662812.html
I'm sure the T-01D would perform pretty awesome and maybe pre-installed software would not be as big a deal as it is now. Maybe since your SH-01D is getting updated, T-01D isn't far behind. The only thing I have to see is if I can update out of Japan.
I don't have sh-01d but galaxy tab 10.1 sc-01d instead. My t-01d also upgraded to V43R41C last month during visiting Japan. Upgrade of t-01d may not be possible outside Japan as Software Update cannot be executed without docomo sim and network.

hey
as far as I know, only build #10 devices are not root able
if you want to root your tablet, enable USB-Debugging in your options,
after you have done that, go to this post, install the usb drivers, if you want to test if adb is working, start the batch file, which is located in the folder of the drivers, than type in the batch file, "adb devices", without" ", if it found devices, proceed to the next step
got to this post, download the AoI tool by condi, extract the tool, start the tool
type in "1" than press enter, wait till it's finished, exit.
congrats your tablet is rooted
I would recommend you, to also install the rescue-backdoor.
I hope that I could help you with my confusing tutorial
cheers

yes u can only do install rescue backdoor after the tab is rooted.
rooting in android means gaining root access. Market aka PlayShop is a place where all androids apps/games are hosted. Weather u can play on Sony Tab or other android devices are purely base on the Android version (eg: 2.3.5(GB), 3.2.1(HC), 4.0(ICS) ).
if u ever come across apps like Titanium Backup, CPU Tuner... u will need root previlages to run it because it is meddling with the Android system settings which default the tab is mainly run as a normal user. Also, with rooted android devices, u can change the wifi binary to support adhoc wifi which again, by default it is not enabled. It seems that ICS does support it thou base on the adhoc wifi functions i see.
hope this info gives u a better picture about android rooting. for apple devices u jailbreak to install free apps or freely distributed IPA files.

I have been able to get the update tool software to flash the kdz file and I over right the bin in the process.
The phone flashes fine. But, after flashing I still have no root at all. I'm following every step by step instruction.

I'm so happy that the Lelus Root method works. But, not for me. I have no other machine to use this method on that does not run windows 8.
When I attempt to put the phone in Software update mode when trying to flash the kdz file, windows 8 crashes because of driver issues. Has anyone else had this issue? Or could maybe point me in the right direction into fixing this so i can obtain root for my L9? :highfive: Team work guys, team work. *self five*

Not sure the situation of your window 8 and no one can help you without proper details, but my friend, in my humble opinion your title "[Q] Lelus root method crashes windows 8" is sort of misleading and may be scaring people from using Lelus method. It sounds like you are telling people that "Lelus root method crashes windows 8, so dont use it."
Make it "[Q] Please help! Why Lelus root method is not working on my windows 8?" to be more precise.
Are sure your clicking the network test flash button? Do not click the start button right under the kdz browser folder thing. There should be a button on the lower right hand. Also run the prgram in compatibility as administrator.

My laptop crashes right after it tries to detect the L9 running in SW mode. So, I do not even get as far as the program it self.
I appreciate the input Virusbetax.

my win8 laptop has a few runtime errors during the flashing process itself, and I have to reboot afterwards, but never something as bad as this. you may be experiencing other problems not related to this phone.
may not be the BEST solution but you could always download tinyXP and virutalbox and try everything in a virtual machine..........
Yea there also virtual xp you can use. I believe is from windows website. Try with cousins or friends computer? Maybe theres will work.
Re: [Q] Lelus root method crashes windows 8
Have you tried other cables? Have you used the other usb ports on your system? Have you checked device manager on your laptop to see if there are other devices with errors? Have you gone to your manufactures Web site to see if there are new drivers or an updated bios?

Switching it from the usb 3.0 port to the 2.0 port worked. I successfully got the phone in s/w mode to run with the software update tool. After the tool finishes my phone reboots. Still no root..... I am following every step....
Its all Security and Compatibility issue. Yesterday, I have done some changes in my Root Guide.
======================
2) Download Root_and_Flash_Guide_byCMahendra(date).zip file (attached with this post) and extract in your C-Drive.
Now you will get three folders named "C:\RootLelus" and "C:\RootFlash" and "C:\shttps"
If these folders need any permissions you should provide in folder security section by adding user "everyone" or "<yourname>" and give full access. (example video) This is Optional and should be done if you have permission errors while flashing. Do it for all three folders.
==================
Also run EXE files with WindowsXP compatibility mode and Run As Administrator, if any trouble. In fact I never did this. Just a suggested workaround.
STILL NOTHING IS GUARANTEED AND MAY NOT WORK FOR YOU.
Do some trial and error and you tell us.:good:

Glad it helped.
Hi.
Sorry if I'm posting on wrong area/section.
I have an old tablet Philco that I'd like to see Youtube videos.
PH9B, Android version 4.2.2.
I've found no Youtube app on PlayStore and the reason is because such device won't suitable for the last Youtube version. But I've found an old version APK of Youtube, suitable for Android 4.2, from apkmirror.com. After install it, Youtube warns that there is a newer version available (I know that). And gives me just one button: "Update". Clicking it, I go to PlayStore and it says that my device is not suitable for that new version.
Blind alley. Deadlock. Stalemate.
I can watch videos using the browser. But it's very poor of resources and stucks a lot. It hasn't even an option to speed up the video, at least.
I'm searching for another player as an APK to watch Youtube videos on the fly. Not offline video.
Unfortunately, almost all of them is complaining about the Android version.
So, I will try to root it, so I think I can update Android to 5+.
Anyone may point me the right direction?

How can you update Android to 5? and why you need root?

Thank you for the link.
I was informed that I'd need to root the device to get able to update Android version.
I'm newbie doing such things and I'd appreciate some advice.
But I'm afraid to go ahead because it seems to be a little complicated.
Reading this, I guess I would need Magisk, Android SDK Platform Tools ZIP file for Windows, a deamon (that I don't know exactly what is, and probably an OpenGapps (already downloaded, for Arm64, also not sure of it).
Using Kingo Root, I've already root the tablet successfully.
But I'm not sure what is the next step.
Any idea?
I'm ready to learn and dive into this world of updating OS.

Updating to Android 5 or more, I'd get access to new apps, including some Youtube players that allow speed up videos run.
you have root from Kingo Root, now what? you cannot update android if no update exist. root won't help you with this.
Magisk not supported btw.
That is, I'm looking for guidance and suggestions.
Perhaps, you'd solved the puzzle: no way ahead.

I'm trying now to update from that link you posted.
Manual says to press VOL+ and connect to computer, with tablet turned off.
Until device is being recognized. But only battery charge shows up. Connection between tablet and computer didn't occur.
What to do?
I don't know, but the other link is more recent at least. Do you understand the language of the PDF?

Yes, the language is portuguese, the same I use.
And it explains how to do the update.
But I turn tablet off, press VOL+ and connect USB cable to computer. Connection should happens. But I got no connection...
Tried too many times...
If I try to turn on after that, it enters on Recovery mode.
disable windows driver signature enforcement (restart F7) then open windows device manager and connect phone. on phone screen recovery mode (your picture above) select 'reboot to bootloader'
you should see device in windows device manager. click on -> Properties -> Update Driver -> Browse my computer for driver software -> Let me pick from the list of device drivers on my computer -> Show all devices -> Have Disk -> android_winusb.inf -> Android Bootloader Interface (use the driver that comes with firmware)
then try again the software.
btw my idea would be to install this app cn.wq.disableservice and try to disable Google Play in a way so that it won't bother updating youtube. not sure how exactly, we have to figure out...
at least, YouTube should work oneshot each time you delete app data from settings.

Would you, please, detail more your idea?
I've already installed Disable Service.
Whats services I should disable?
Google Play Services and Google Store have hundred of services allowed.
I'd like to try this suggestion.
well, I would maybe start with YouTube itself, trial and error if you can find the responsible service.
for more advanced tweaking, read some guides
