Hey guys I got a question , I have a friend that rooted his droid 3, but when the update came out for it he went along and did it. Now the phone says its rooted but the computer won't read it. How do you fix this ?

He meant system version, not android version.
Anyway, assuming you're on 5.6.890, you can just reroot using 1clickroot
5.6.890.xt862 , so even though it says its rooted , just root it again ?

It could be a root issue but I would first ceck device manager on windows, try latest drivers, if that does now work go into recovery and turn on usb connection (I think its under advanced).

The main problem he's having is that the computer won't detect his phone.... I installed the drivers from Motorola and it didn't work....

Did you/he try the recovery thing? If all else fails then he could have to re flash the sys.

The 5.6.890 system update for some reason broke any no-name brand micro-USB cables from working with the Droid 3. Use the supplied one or buy one from Verizon or Motorola.

Same problem as the OP, tried all of the above. If I input the ADB DEVICES command, it output :
87897897897987 Offline
Can't get it to show as online or whatever the other state may be.
you could boot into the recovery options and flash the sbf using RSD.
I also have cheap blackberry MicroUSB cables bought on ebay that work just fine.
It seems simple but have you tried toggling usb debugging. I had the same issue until someone suggested that to me and worked like a charm. Toggle while unplugged then plug it.in

I already have Titanium Backup Full and Root Explorer. (Just downloaded again since I already had those bought on my Galaxy S)
I'm in Brazil so I can't watch NetFlix... -.-
Look in the themes and apps forum under the galaxy tab.it will give you more ideas.

Ok there is a similar post on this. Plug tablet in and charge it. While tablet is charging unplug your pc and then reboot it up to reset the usb ports. take your tablet and connect usb cable to pc. Ensure you have the samsung usb drivers loaded. Put your tablet in download mode and using odin try reflashing.

After rooting my phone and after using it fire about a week something weird happened to my phone, on Sunday the phone restart it itself and when it booted up the phone was stock on the Samsung screen after the metro pcs boot animation. I took out the battery several times but to no avail. It was dead. I finally took it to metro yesterday and they have me a brand new one. I'm more sure if i will root it again though.

I don't know what could have happened to the phone. Its weird because it just got stuck.

Setting phones on fire usually kills them.
Did you try CPR on it? Check if it still has a heart beat.
This is murder!

So your phone is on Gingerbread? And you downloaded the official stock ICS update rom?
What is the file name that you downloaded? How big is it?
It was on gingerbread but my mom thought she was helping and went and did the install so I think it may have deleted the file now

So she "did" the install on your phone (over the air update?) but the install didn't start yet? I don't think the situation is clear yet. What would you like to do, and what symptoms are getting in your way?

I had it downloaded and just set to install later but while my mom was using my phone saw the update and hit install now. So now phone is running 4.0. What I was winding to do was try and extract the update to use for later if I needed to.

Just do this if you want to ever go back to ics stock
1) Download this ruu: http://dl3.htc.com/application/htc_vivid_att_RUU_3.26.502.56_US.exe I got the download from here http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-vivid-att/software-updates
2) just double click file it downloads when ever you want to go back to stock...it will walk you through the process
Extra info:
-ruu stands for Rom update utility
-it is the official stock ics
-no, your warranty won't be voided by using it...
-it can only be used on windows
-it will delete all your apps and everything (except for stuff on your sd and external sd...like any thing you downloaded from a browser or put on your phone through USB)
-it takes a while...if it gets stuck do not unplug just wait it out
-if your freaking out cause its taking so long just ask in the q&a section for advice

Can't seem to find it anywhere on here, can anyone link me to it please?
Don't have a computer by me so I can't sbf back. I just want to flash a stock ROM so everything works before I get it replaced at BestBuy.
Cracked my screen and I went in to get it replaced and the dude said he could hook me up with an S3 instead of a new Atrix. Dope.
