Hi everybody!
I just got my hands on a RAZR MAXX LE (The red one) and I no longer have use for my OG RAZR. Instead of selling it on eBay or craigslist I want to give it to a developer (FREE!). Developers do all the work and hacks for our phones and I feel they get little or no appreciation so I want to offer my CDMA VZW RAZR (Blue) to a developer.
How should I go about this? I want to give it to one of our main developers like Matt.
Send it to a developer who is working on a bootloader bypass, they tend to brick phones more often. I think hashcode has been working on bypassing the droid 3 bootloader with some success, if he had a back up razr he might be willing to take a chance on working on it. Kholk has bypassed the boot loader with some limitations on hw for gsm, he maybe able to get the cdma bypass working if he had one. Just some thoughts.

I was able to get in touch with mattlgroff, he's working on bootloader stuff also, so I'm going to send it to him.

If you/anybody selling it cheap.. I'm willing to buy & do some usefull development.
Getting tired of my XT909 lately.
Condition : Broken screen/sound/etc is not a problem as long as USB is working.
I only need it for adb/fastboot session.
Just sent it, here's Matt's new toy!

so was at bestbuy today and the manager had an amaze.asked if he had rooted it or no and he said no. what surprised me is that he said he was able to get rid of tmobile preinstalled apps just by calling tmobile guys and they simply remove them...anybody tried?

He was probably blowing smoke up your ass. T-Mobile doesn't customize ROMs on a per-person basis. And there is now way to otherwise remove apps without root.
Hah what a lie
yeah thats what i thought,sounded too good to be true
Haha, another example of Best Buys tomfoolery.

I work at a Walmart "front-of-store" Wireless, I've rooted a Captivate, Droid X, G2, Vibrant, Sensation, Inspire, Infuse, Atrix, and probably others that I've forgetting, It's worth mentioning that most people I work with don't know what I've done with those phones or how to do it. I'm guessing that's the case with these best buy people.

Did I miss how to do this somewhere? How?
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G
You didnt miss anything... the ONLY way to remove Tmo bloat is by using the HTCDEV.com bootloader unlock and unlocking your bootloader. Then you must permaroot your phone. Only then will you have adequate permissions to allow you to remove the bloatware from your phone. There is NO OTHER WAY AROUND IT currently.
Thanks, that's what I thought.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G
I, being a t-mobile employee must tell you that the manager at best buy is bluffing. Just like users above have posted, you must root the device first prior to even having permission to remove the bloatware.

lol...I was insatlling ROMS something went wrong now am stuck on bootloop. thanks iRobby i will try that!
What a drag. I am really hoping to see an FXZ soon. Honestly it is the lack of FXZ that has me seriously considering the GN.
Personally I require a back out plan...if none exists honestly I don't want the phone. Mostly because the other thing I require is root. I know I can root the Razr as I already have....but I am seriously timid due to lack of FXZ.
This is why over Christmas I bought a Nexus, pretty much screw it up as bad as you want and theres always a way back. That and its been out for 1/2 the time and has 1000% more development on it already. I gave my wife my RAZR, her first smart phone.

Bro, use the one-click and put Safestrap on. Immediately make a backup. You'll be fine. It's a safety net. Not the desired one of course, but it'll save your tushy.

Put an ice cream sandwich on it and see if it runs faster!!!
Can we get an "Asshat" section setup to this forum and move some of these threads there?
Have you tried stripping one end of a extension cord and wiring it up to your device, see if you can get some more juice to it and overlock!! Also you may also consider adding a hamster + wheel for extra umph.
I know huh...I had to reply with that comment, couldn't help myself....we should have a TFP BS Thread section......would be at least a place for many laughs.
Is that 32geebees?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
No this one is latest model it has 128 geebees. No GPS though
yes but does it come in purple? I mean metallic grey?
If you take 20+ steps away, is the text still readable?
does it have a search option? if not maybe you need more geebees xD
is it faster than the overclocked HP touchpad a fellow member put a video up comparing Prime to? we all know how fast that thing is
Hey, and its already rooted! You can access all the files!
I needed this thread, I really did.

Really wish the Mods would start deleting these pointless threads.
Come on everyone lighten up a little. Be happy! Enjoy the comedy don't take life so seriously.
BTW: I have root access right out of the box and no encrypted bootloader. The nice thing about it is I can change the Rolodex cards to any style and color I want and I still get my warranty
I agree, among all this turmoil we can use some clowning.
*coughs* so.. Handwriting recognition is great, too!
The best part is that you don't have to buy a stylus! It also works with a BIC Pen! Now that's what i called backward compatibility.
please delete
great story.......

Couldn't you have said the person on Craigslist must have done something to it since you bricked it so soon after receiving it? That's what I would have said.
corypeterson said:
2 days ago I traded my HTC Vivid for a Galaxy Note with a dude on Craigslist (dumb move on his part) & within less than 24 hours of having it, I managed to hard brick it by flashing an incompatible kernel. Completely my fault.
LUCKILY, I took the phone into an AT&T store and played the dumb card. After about 45 minutes of going back & forth with the store manager and a warranty agent on the phone, they decided to send me a brand new replacement at no charge. Should be here Monday.
I feel like I really lucked out seeing as to how I traded with someone on Craigslist.. I really thought I was screwed!

Don't understand. Are you bragging about making a totally avoidable mistake or how you lied to AT&T reps? Either way I don't see too much to shout about.

Edit: this is exactly why manufacturers lock the bootloader. People like you ruin development. IMHO!

I couldn't agree more
If people are flashing things they should at least be responsible for messing up.
And this also could be a good reason why apple is closed source

Oh gee, I hope AT&T doesn't see that Cory Peterson from Texarkana, Arkansas has defrauded them.

The LG G4 vs986 is out and about. Only one reported user as of yet, user WhistlingCaruso is blogging about it over on reddit. im trying to get him to dump his system so we can get UX 4.0 on our G3.. Let's hope he does it for us.
Can you tell him to give an image of his G4?
Anyways goodluck on your mission. Try to treat him well, it always helps.

It's me folks! I have a VS986, and I've tried using avicohh's LG root (both 1.2 and 1.3). It appears to be successful, but when I login, it doesn't actually have SuperSU installed/loaded. I attempt 'su' in adb shell, but it fails.
I've been able to enumerate the partitions, but that is as far as I've gotten.

First you need to have custom recovery, and for that you need root, and for that you need an exploit, and for that you need the actual phone.
Calm down dude, the G4 on Verizon isn't even officially out yet.
nice that it's out in the wild but let's give it some time for more devs to get there hands on it
I've got one coming that is supposed to show up tomorrow.
Gonna have the wife test drive it.

She loves it and the camera is ridiculous.
Far snappier than the G3. Screens are pretty comparable. GPS pulls a lock in no time. She had heavy photo usage today and 4 hours SOT with about 30% left.
I was going to go get one this evening but Verizon had closed.
