Back to stock?

Well, I guess I finally complained about the data issue on my Bionic enough and they are sending me a Razr tomorrow. My question - I'm running Eclipse 3.0. I had to FDR a few weeks back when troubleshooting everything with big red, and that didn't erase anything. Based on my limited research, to go completely back to stock I have to find RSD lite and an FXZ file and reflash the phone with that? Is this necessary if just sending it back to them? Or will I be fine shipping it back as is?
Thanks in advance!

You should probably fxz it. There is at least a possibility that someone would pay attention and you would get nailed for full no contract retail for the razr and fxz is easy and takes about 15 mins.

Thanks for the reply!
I've found an all inclusive file that's supposed to include RSD and .902, is there a more up to date .905 somewhere?

Went ahead and went to 902, figure that's good enough for a warranty return. Thanks, it was alot easier than I thought! Now I guess I gotta go find some cool roms for the razr.

Man they sent you a Razr, that sucks, I would have hoped for the Razr Maxx.

I'd rather have the Bionic than the Razr.

If you fxzed 902 all you have to do is go to settings/about phone/check for update and you'll ota to 905. I think leaving it at 902 might make someone wonder how you got off path.

OMG

Invite received for something. For what I don't know...
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using xda app-developers app

haha me too

I did too. I am afraid to install official ICS Beta. Have the phone working so nicely right now. You know what, I'm not going to do it. For 3 reasons:
1) Am already running .232 already, no point in reverting it back to .905 just to install basically the same thing which isn't even the finished products.
2) They asked if I have rooted. If I answer yes, there goes my warranty for sure.
3) Hmm had one but forget what it was.
Either way, I will wait for official to come out and get peoples reviews. For all I know it will be crappier than .232 and I won't be able to go back to GB.

Same. Tingling with anticipation. Already defrosted my bloatware.

LOL well i was talking about a wedding invite. Wink wink. But y'all continue on.

Only emails to invite went out, soak hasn't actually stated yet.

And yes. Stock [currently] sucks...

Do you have to be running .905 to receive the invite? Or just to receive the soak...
I have gotten the invite / soak in the past, but I was never rooted / running a leak before. This time I'm on .232 leak.
Thoughts?

Need to be on .905 to participate.

To clarify you don't have to be on .905 for the invite, that is just emailed and you fill out a survey. You do have to be on .905 to get the OTA update (or to pull it once available).

Very but would be awesome

Make sure to leave the update on your ext sdcard so if anything ever goes wrong you can use the reinstall option and save from boot loop or brick as LNG as you leave that update file there.

The process s actually very easy and explains it step by step. My only mistake was I had to extract the files from the fwz set up file. At first when I launched the .bat file said files were missing from there. I extracted the files and piece of cake from there.
I just made a folder on my homescreen and put everything in one folder. Also roots it for you as well.

Did you get the invitational emails for the soak? Did you check in on the moto forum? If you got the invites but not the system update you could have requested a re-push to your MEID. However the soak is now over. The general release will be within a few days. Either download the 246 soak or wait it out. Sorry you missed it.
South Carolina here. I got it early yesterday morning.

Why haven't I gotten the OTA update yet?

Just about every hour of the day, I have touched my finger on that "Check Now" button in the System Updates page. It keeps saying I am up to date, although my system software number still says it is 4.2.2. I am on stock android, non-rooted, and I live in the USA. I just don't get it.
Also I am EST, so right now it is 9:18 pm as I post this.

It always takes a day or two for the rollout to get to everyone. Just chill, you'll probably get it by tomorrow.

OTA rootkeeper will NOT keep root they changed the way security works in 4.3
supercurio said:
Android 4.3 Notes:
Based on Android 4.3 release notes, on Enterprise and Security, Restrict Setuid from Android Apps, su binaries and Superuser apps designed for previous Android generation will simply not work on 4.3:
It means preserving root with OTA Root Keeper won't be possible anymore as new rooting techniques rely on more than just a setuid su binary in /system.
I'll look into solution of course to preserve the functionality if possible, but until then please follow Chainfire's job on SuperSU betas.

OTA update to improve camera - sprint?

So I'm seeing these articles about the sprint moto x getting an update but I haven't received or seen much talk about the sprint version on here getting that update. Is it still only hitting certain areas? Could someone maybe get us sprint users that are unlocked get a stock system.img and boot.img with that update applied?

Please god. I've been trying to find ANYTHING that can put this update on my phone. Nobody has posted the update.zip or any of the images or anything. I've seen people say they've received the update, but that's about it. I really want this update.

Minus the release notes I have seen very little about this update from anyone that has it. I would like to hear what people are seeing.

Ok so I got the update a few days ago and it failed to install because I'm unlocked and rooted and all that jazz. So I grabbed the zip file out of /cache and uploaded it here:
https://db.tt/oqP3l1Qs
For what it's worth, the last few times I've checked for an update, my phone says I'm up to date even though I'm still on 4.2.
Edit: Dropbox instead of Drive
Edit: Just realized this zip is the same software version I already have. Then why did my phone tell me it was an update to be downloaded?

I know it isn't much help but I was in the Sprint Store yesterday and their demo phone had the update sitting ready to install. They wouldn't let me get ahold of it and take it off though. Could have very easily done so in a few minutes.

So can I get the step by step instructions to apply this manually. I have downloaded the file from the drop box link here in this thread. I do not have rot nor is my boot loader unlocked. I can get phone into recovery via fast boot and selecting recovery but all I get is an android laying down with an error stating no command. I have moved the file to the root of my SD card but am unable to put it into cache obviously without root access.
