Waiting for devices means it isn't seeing the phone. Did you install the drivers from Motorola properly?

Unplug phone from computer, install drivers on PC from link above, plug phone back in, and wait until Windows has finished updating the drivers.
Also, make sure you are using a USB port on the back of your PC, as this can make a difference.

My best suggestion is to follow all of the instructions here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423 It sounds like you probably have the first part done, so go with the "Proper Recovery" section once you're sure you have the prerequisites.

Sending Verizon a Hacked Phone

what are the consequences of sending verizon my rooted eris for a refurb and should i put it back to stock before i do ?
are there going to be extra charges ?
just downgrade it to the stock 2.1 (or even 1.5) rom and you'll be fine.
The consequences are that they will take it back no questions asked then give you a ****ty 2.1 phone back with 1.49 locked boot loader then you will have to sit and watch this board on your phone with the faint hope that someone figures out how to root it one day in a way that does not involve you poping your SD card in and out about 700 times in the faint hope that it works once!

you can install a non-rooted room over top and lose root. if you decide to not hand it over, the bootloader doesnt change, so you can re-root it again if need be.

You might have to mess with your drivers to get your phone and pc to see each other. Try deleting your drivers, unplug phone, plug it back in and try to reinstall the drivers from sdk.

I need help with rooting my Rezound

I'm sorry if there is something already posted here somewhere about the rezound, but I haven't seen anything...yet...lol.
I've been trying to root my rezound ALL DAY and can't seem to figure anything out apparently.
If someone could help me out with sending me a link to the best way of unlocking bootloader and then rooting my phone. I had a dinc2 previously and that was not as hard to root compared to the rezound IMO. So please, if someone can take the time for me and help me out with getting my phone unlocked and rooted I would greatly appreciate it a TON!!!

hey guys thanks for replying back....I'm still getting no luck whatsoever with unlocking the bootloader.....I'm doing everything (or so I think I am) right with the steps on htcdev.com and when I get to the command prompt and type in fastboot oem get_identifier_token...this is what comes up
'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.....now I have NO CLUE what the heck to do!! I'm getting pissed off lol. I could really use some help here. thanks
You need to change the directory to where your fastboot is located.

I think I have everything ready to unlock my device but once I click fastboot OEM get identifier token it says waiting for device and doesn't do anything after that. Freakin sucks
Yeah make sure you have the HTC drivers installed. I had the same issue in Jan when I rooted mine, drivers weren't there.

After you install Android SDK the directions on the HTCdev site tell you to run sdk manager and download the Android SDK Tools and Android SDK Platfrom-tools. What I did was to take this a step further and also install the Google USB Driver which is listed in ADB Manager under Extras and also the API's for GB and ICS. The API's really aren't necessary but I don't think ADB will recognize the phone without the Google USB Drivers.

This may not work for you, but one time my drivers weren't working because I plugged my phone into a USB 3.0 port, so when I used a USB 2.0 port, it worked fine.

Let's clarify. You tried to install cwm, it failed and now your phone says unauthorized software take to Verizon? Your post honestly doesn't make sense. Oh and now Odin won't see your phone?
If this is correct then your phone is far from screwed up. Very common it's what happens when you don't unlock the bootloader. So let's get your phone seen by Odin. Are you in download mode? What os is your computer? Have you trired different usb ports? Are drivers installed?

Seeing as when I tried to switch to CWM I was already on Aroma I am confused as to how my bootloader got locked. I have been installing, uninstalling all over the place. in fact im still doing it. to answer your questions: yes,7 and 8,yes,covered.
And believe me I know that article inside and out. If I could get my odin to work Id be in fields of gold. Conveniently I have a new computer arriving today that I will try to get it to work with. It seems that my computer cant figure out how to communicate with it.
It calls it a "Gadget Serial" downloading PC studio didnt seem to help

You can't be on aroma. Aroma is a method used by ROM devs to allow the user to select options during install of their ROM. There are two recoveries, CWM and TWRP.
So you are seeing unauthorized software? Then your bootloader is locked, if it was unlocked then we'll figure that out later.
You should see gadget serial. Is it installing the drivers for that? How did you install drivers, Windows update our manually?

Okay, thanks for clarifying. That is a little strange then. I mean did you let Windows download the drivers for you, which you answered. You can try to put phone in download mode and keep plugging and unplugging it (give it time to recognize it first). There was a guy that said it eventually just recognized hos phone after 16 times. You did restart your computer correct?

Someone woke up on the butthurt side of bed this morning
You're most likely not bricked if it will turn on at ALL! Here's what you need to do:
1. Make sure your computer is setup with the proper drivers/ODIN.
2. Go here and download the stock ODIN image
3. Get a different USB cord you know works or try the most rearest USB port and put your phone in ODIN mode as stated above.
4. If ODIN doesn't recognize your phone, restart the computer with it plugged in and unplug it and replug it...
5. Flash ODIn in the PDA, not the Phone section (Follow the directions given by Imnuts).
That should fix you up, if it doesn't, chances are you missed a step. Good luck:victory:

go into recovery and try turning adb sideload on then off and see if adb recognizes your device after that.
failed to open driver control: no such file or directory
when i start adb, it zooms really fast through codes and then exits.

Okay im going to post the steps and maybe this will be easier for all of us.
1- Flashed Paranoid
2- Flashed crpalmers boot.img in flashgui
3- Phone was good for a solid day, then rebooted.
4- After reboot phone said a lot of the services are force closing and then rebooted into the white htc screen
5- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2131284 and followed it to the T
6- phone is not being recognized in adb
7- went to flash the recovery but its waiting on device even though its in fastboot usb
Maybe im missing a driver or a step I am not sure about but hopefully that helps a bit more than posting little by little.

Good thing though is now my device is being recognized in adb and fastboot but still having issues pushing or flashing rom

Might want to unplug from the net when installing them so it doesn't look for others which driver version you installing? EDIT: also if you have a otg cable then you can put the rom on a flash drive and flash it from that.

What error is it giving you when you try to push a rom.

"Security error"

Could someone help me with this issue?
I unlocked the bootloader of my p768 a while ago, and then I sent it to the carrier service, because it was having some signal problems.
I read that, once you unlock your bootloader, you can't lock it again, so, when I got it back, it was kind of restored and today I tried to flash Clockworkmod (.img file) and when I tried to reboot it, it said "Security Error", I followed this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470248
And when I connected the phone to the computer, and it says that the device already has the most recent version.
What do I do? Any suggestions?
Thanks

Hi @speakerstick
You need to update the recovery in the LG mobile support tool and then it should work.
Look in the top right screen and select "Support Tool Options Menu" and then select "Upgrade Recovery"

I've tried, but when it says it's uploading it to the phone it suddenly disconnects and I have to do the same process again, but the same thing happens.
What do I do?
Thanks

Are you using the stock cable? If not, do so.
Have you made sure nothing else (NOTHING ELSE BUT THE NECESSARY) is connected to the other USB ports? Unplug stuff.
Do you have the drivers needed? Uninstall, redownload, reinstall.
Have you tried on another USB port?
Do you have any idea, based on the logs the program generates, about what might be wrong?
I've done it! I finally was able to do it. I uploaded it with the battery, I know the guide says you shouldn't but it worked, now... Does anyone know how to re-root the device? I unlocked the bootloader a while ago and then I sent it to service, but how do I "root" the phone again?
Thanks!

Maybe you should try doing it the same way when you first unlocked the bootloader? Just a thought....lol.
