Everything has already been tried and failed. The All In One that mtmichaelson just released is the only way currently..

[Q] Revolt and Root

sorry for a dumb question, but I'm coming from Eris-land where custom ROMs required root.
Does Revolt require root ? or just boot with vol-down ?

You need root to flash custom roms on any device, you can find pretty detailed info and instructions on how to root the Revo in the Development section... The only stupid questions are the ones blah bla blah...

If you have trouble rooting after the downgrade to V4, download superoneclick root version 1.7 which has the rageagainsthecage exploit that you can use to root. The newer versions do not have this exploit, because it causes antivirus software flags. However the most recent version was unable to root my phone after the downgrade.
Make sure you disable ALL antivirus software, and run the superoneclick program as administrator

Good call, I completely forgot to mention the downgrade and superoneclick... I used 1.7 to root with hardly any trouble, I had to run it twice because it tends to hang halfway through the first attempt (i had the same problem before the update) but I got root the second time around with no issues.
[Don't forget to calibrate your battery, not doing this seems to be the cause of a lot of warranty replacements lately.]

Thanks for the advice...
Downgraded, rooted, cwm'd, calibrated and now Revolt-ing !
Greeeat people here !
You'll love it!! Revolt is awesome. Granted...I only had the phone for two hours before it was rooted/CWM/Revolt...but it only took that long to get sick of the stock interface.

The File you have posted there seems to be the .905 GB download if I'm not mistaken.
you're mistaken.
That is the OS you need to be on to update to the new update. That's how Moto numbers their OS's. Where you're coming from.
I'll post back after I make sure razr edge roots it and I wanna see if you can fxz back to .902.
I was happy with .230 except for the email issue I had with apostrophes.
I thought it was going to be another boring Friday night :laugh:
My Bad
Seems you are right. My Bad.
Downloading now.
Didnt mean to come off as an azz. Was just playin' I'm so excited.
I was able to root with razrs edge and read a report that you can FXZ back to .902.
I have successfully FXZ'd back to .902
You're good.
Any idea of changes from .230 to .232?

Dude. I used another method to root I saw in a different forum. You root with motofail after you accept the 905 ota. Then backup root with voodoo app. Undo root. Install ics update. Then restore root with voodoo. Works really easily. I'm still on 2233 running aokp nightly and no problems whatsoever.
Sent from my XT875 using xda premium
AUGH. I just put 230 on my phone last night. But I did it with moto-fastboot and no data loss, so I may just update now. Why not?
And the ICS root method for mac doesn't seem to work, so I downloaded the windows version, opened up the batch file, and copy-pasted the adb commands into terminal.
Can someone please post another download link please all the ones i have seen don't work anymore?

Really?... Or is that a joke that I don't understand because it came through the internet.
Screenshot? :/
And I managed to get this mirror online before I finished the partial 902 restore. (Then again I had to do that "by hand" with moto-fastboot, per the RootzWiki thread's instructions that now have a strike through them for some reason)

What i did was try to thank you twice. The first one showed fine, then the second time i hit "thanks" it said the "thanks action denied". Then my first one disappeared. So it was like i didn't hit it at all. But after i signed back in again it shows the first one. I'm using tapatalk on my RAZR. I'd do a screenshot but its a pop up message that only appears for a second. At least you know i was trying to be grateful! Lol

Don't see knock code either.

Figures. It can't be a huge update. Interesting to see what the changes are too. I can't believe knock code still isn't included in this. I am running a G3 port and don't really like knock code either. It sure beats entering a code, but I just prefer to knockon from anywhere and swipe to unlock. Knock Code was too difficult when my phone is in all sorts of weird positions and angles.
the link in OP's post is 2.2GB. It took a few minutes to install on my phone, so it's not a small update like the last one.

OP's link is the full factory image, not just an OTA update. I'm guessing 27A is just a bug fixer.

Did you upgrade from 26A(rooted)? I'm currently there & rooted. Hope stumproot still works after I update!

No, I was on my own build of Lolipop.
It shouldn't matter when you .kdz though, it will wipe everything, and start you fresh. I didn't have any problem rooting with stump root once on 27A.
You can let everyone one know if you kept root while upgrading to 27A from 26A.
Does 27a have different radios from 26a
I would like to know that as well.......

Try saying please again, maybe your phone will magically root. But in all seriousness, people are working on it, they have lives though, just wait patiently.
