Hey everyone,
I recently rooted my moto droid and was wondering now that I have done this can I drop 1.5 or any other OS on there that I choose? Also, if that is possible can someone post a link or tell me how to go about doing this. That being said, I was also wondering if there is a way to easily switch between android versions for development.
Thanks for your time and help,
Tommy
Here is a link to droidforums. It has links to most rooted Tom's for Droid.

You can also try other sites like alldroid.org, phandroid. The developers site which is "xda" and "sdx". There are many others so just search around they all have forums for different devices for this information. One of the most helpful I've found for noobs was unlocked.com. give it a try.

Look-up RomManager in the marketplace if you will be moving between versions alot, it handles these changes very well.
As to going to previous versions I can not say for sure. In theory yes but you will ether have to find a pre-made Droid rom or build it yourself.
Thanks!
Thank you both for the replies and information. I will continue my research and see what I can dig up. Hopefully I can find a 1.5 rom as building it myself is a little out of my ability right now.
Yes rom manager would be a good idea forgot to mention it. It works great for switching roms I just have a little problem with mount sdcard in clockworkmod recovery so mine will reboot after entering recovery and rom manager doesn't help some times but it seems to work great for most devices. My problem is I have to reformat sdcard because I came from Eris and I don't want to till I can get a computer to backup info on it.

I deleted "friend feed.apk"...or could of been "friend share.apk"...any way someone could post the .apk for me
Thx in advance...just got my bionic and loving it!..
And i just realized this is not the right place to be asking...sorry,if you could (mods),pls put this thread in the right area
Let this be your lesson to ALWAYS BACK UP whenever you are unsure of what you're removing. Especially if the app is located in /system
I'd post the APK but I'm not running stock. Hope someone else will help.
I would also help but am blurless and do not have the apk. One recommendation i have, only cause I've done this before, download the deodexed rom, unzip it, and find the apk you're looking for.

Hello all,
I've been looking everywhere for the stock froyo image for my wifi streak7. I've downloaded the tmobile images (as suggested on this guide - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1018809) but I've also had reports of this bricking wifi-only models. Is it actually safe to install the tmo image on my device, or does somebody know where to find the images?
TheManii has a few files on a dev-host account. I am out of town for a few days or else I would provide you a drop box link with the stock files.
Perhaps pm him directly, and be very kind and gracious in your request, or maybe someone else will read this and can provide you a link
Look in the stickies section, there may be a reference to where to find.
Also maybe look at tabletroms.com

Hey all!
If you've modified your system partition chances are you can not update to jellybean. Thankfully there is a quick fix.
First of all make sure your on the latest revision of Ice Cream Sandwich for your device (if you go to SETTINGS>ABOUT>SYSTEM UPDATES. You should see a 4.1.1 update; if it says that there is a 4.0.4 update then this tutorial is not for you. However if this is not for you, chances are I can get it to work soon.)
Basically what this tutorial will do is re-install Stock Firmware so that you are eligible for the Jellybean Update! Its quick and easy.
(1. Download this package:
firmware: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/dinara/7.7.1Q-144_MB886_MR1-22_SIGNED_CFC.xml.zip
xml: http://www.mediafire.com/view/?l4l81nxc49utk1y
RSD: http://www.mediafire.com/?yw9dh89jtqii71e
(firmware, xml and RSD LITE)
(2. Extract all archives to desktop place the separate xml file in with all firmware files this means: (put xml in with firmware files overwritting the xml it came with.)
(3. Turn Device Off
(4. Hold Volume + ; Hold Volume - ; Hold Power (ALL AT ONCE)
(5. You should now be in the boot-loader menu; QUICKLY use ONLY VOLUME DOWN! to scroll down to APFastboot, THEN PRES VOLUME UP!
(6. Plug device in (VIA USB) to computer.
(7. Install RSD Lite 6.1.4
(8. Open up RSD Lite 6.1.4
(9. Click (...) load / select the file you extracted (open 7.7.1Q-144_MB886_MR1-22_SIGNED_CFC.xml ; found in folder Firmware 4.0.4 in the folder you extracted.
(10. Press "Start" Be patient may take multiple tries
(11. After successful when device is restored go to Settings>About>System Updates>Download and Install Jellybean Update (may take up to 20 minutes to install be patient! Everything will be okay!)
(12. Enjoy your Jelly-beaned Atrix HD
REPLY OR POST NEW FOR Q/A / HELP
IF YOU DECIDE TO GIVE UP YOU MAY AUTOMATICALLY BOOT IN THIS BOOT MENU, JUST REPEAT STEP 4, THEN PRESS VOLUME UP!
***DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BRICKS YOU CAUSE BY NOT FOLLOWING MY INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY. IF YOU FOLLOW MY DIRECTIONS FULLY THERE IS A 0% CHANCE YOU WILL BRICK.

IF YOU HAVE YOU CAN POST A THREAD ON YOUR ISSUE AND WE AS A COMMUNITY WILL DO OUR BEST TO HELP YOU! OR YOU CAN PM ME!***

I know there are other options but this is way more safe, this is Motorola official vs. a third party app.
BTW: That third party app is distributing Motorola's software without any citing what so ever: that is straight up illegal!
I don't own any of the firmware / xml / or the program. All the credit goes to motorola

Yes, if you've deleted some system files and it's causing your OTA to fail, reflashing your firmware will let the OTA install properly. I'm not sure why you're getting so excited?

Its a common issue I helped someone with the yesterday, so I put it up for everyone to see
Im helping people that went by the other tutorial to just restore system apps, because that is not the proper way to restore it all and get jellybean chances are it will fail again. Plus this isn't really exciting Im just helping so i can post more threads, to be able to post on the development thread which I've just obtained the ability

Just a quick reminder, this shouldn't be your reason for posting more threads. Posting threads for the sake of posting threads is known as spamming and in most cases results in posts/threads being deleted and you having to start back from 0. Take this as a friendly reminder to anyone thinking of doing this as we're all meant to be here to help each other and share a common interest.
Thanks

The atrix hd utility was made for this sole purpose, and does this all in with one button.
Yeah, but where are the steps for using it???
Maybe im the only one on here never flashed before, using rsd or all in one...but this thread is really helpful at moment for me and other noobs..
There are so much other freds with less information here...pls let the thread open...ok?
The app was edited and doesn't work if your just now downloading it someone needs to re-upload I'm spreading this around. If you don't like this thread then leave, its really that simple. Obviously I'm not doing this for no reason I already got two thanks on it after about an hour, chill out.

Can't knock someone for trying to help. This is what the Atrix HD threads need more of! I've actually been kinda frustrated with the lack of details. It's just been expected that people know how to do things when not every one does... Thanks OP!
Jelly Beaned up on the mAtrix HD
Someone is actually on an acceptable level of intellect, thank you.

This is aparently a method to roll back the AHD on ATT to 4.0.4
Says something about using QPST.
I have no experience so im posting this and waiting till someone who understands it more can comment.
Well hopefully our great devs find a root for JB

DON'T FLASH IT!!!
This is most likely the Asian version and WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE!!!.
In case you haven't heard of me, I've been helping a lot around the Atrix 2 community. Then when i bricked it, at&t ran out of Atrix 2s and gave me and Atrix HD instead. Since then, I've been hiding in the shadows so I won't look like a n00b.
I'll take a look at this.
until then...
DON'T FLASH IT!!!
Check out that link I posted.
That looked very helpful. We just need someone with experience to make sure it could/does work.

There is the link just press the white button that says "下载" and download.
DEVS ONLY!!!!!
Started the download but its crawling along even on 20mbps connection.
Im no Deve though. Still the link I posted is a downgrade for US ATT phones!
IF that really works then we are saved even if JB isnt rooted ever!
So check it out as well. It uses QPST to fix bricked phones from the translated english I could make out.
i tried it
I tried no brick but it wouldnt come out of fastboot. Flashed back to 4.1.1 because it wouldn't let me flash to ICS either.
What method did you try.
The root or the rollback?
IDK anything yet,
10 minutes remaining.
I cant find download link

In China they sell them with unlocked bootloaders out of the box, don't even have to unlock them lol
So what's that mean for us Matt? While you LOL we wait anxiously for any hope of root.
Kinda figures the chinese hackers would be better than us
Since no one brought this up. This is form the chinese forum specificaly for ATT phones and rolling back.
We have to be able to get something from this. Here is the translated forum post and thread link.
http://bbs.gfan.com/android-5675929-1-1.html
Thread Title Translates into "[Experience] 4.1 downgrade to 4 and then root then OTA upgrade to 4.1 and then delete the at&t official app"
From the forums found this address http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09.5.0.40.sdQ42d&id=15839118382 Taobao bought mb886
Hand of machine comparison simple, no packaging box, no headset, no HDMI line (does not clearly full of should is what sample), only machine, and line and charger, Hou cover see with somewhat rough, words see does not Qing (just carefully see has see, original is has layer film, tore has lot has), however I is doesn't matter, 1500 Yuan, buy this machine of principles originally is enough on line, on figure a CrystalTalk.
Hand machine is 4.1.1 Chinese, no locked bootloader, you have root, Forum of Chinese-speaking fees, useful original and I try not to toss the habit
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/dinara/list.php
4.1.1 under firmware, installed the pre-release driver according to RSD brush machine for tutorials in the forums.
All the best, starting with a long time feels good, but too many app at&t too tired, and would also like to buy things with market unlocker (because they do the Internet for many years, never trusting any app store in the country, even before the official market is entering into the definition, 4 well after some), there is the root idea.
Forums and XDA-pass, and found that we cannot root, downgrading is dangerous, but don't see a post saying who try to downgrade the bricks.
Worked, we said that it would lose IMEI, use QPST out IMEI spare.
Then download from the above address 7.7.1Q-144_MB886_MR1-22_SIGNED_CFC.xml.zip (also need to modify the XML file, remove the GetVar two lines),
After the wipe (can be a feeling, first wipe wipe cache has been contained), RSD flush, when brush is also very worried about bricks, but smoothly brushed inside, after the restart, settings, found that IMEI in, not lose it? Also use QPST and search a bit, 550.
Opens the developer options the first use debug and unknown sources of security, from: http://Forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940594 motofail2go_ Windows.zip, implementation extracted run.bat, follow the prompts to root successfully, and then go to play store updated superuser, updated into superuser update Su
And then go to play Voodoo store installed OTA rootkeeper, or you can download from its official, http://DL.project-Voodoo.org/apps/, after install, backup root, and then UN-root, and then restore against each, several times, confirm no problem.
Enter the settings of the system update, start the download update package, download fast, faster than play app store synchronization, waited until all the app is installed, system update again to begin the update the update succeeds, IMEI (wrong ... ... ), But discovered that 4.0.4 with real racing2 does not know how ... ...
Deletion of official procedures,

And corresponds to the odex files, some of these files in/system/app, in/system/vendor/app, by deleting out wipe the cache (note that only wipe cache)
Delete method is to use ES File Manager manually to a directory with the TF card, XDA people recommend Titanium Backup, I haven't tried, there are free versions of both of these play store.
Circles I had, the small circle to the right of the display can be a battery, did not find major problems currently in use, there is less of an issue People are following a fall in a YP, a collapse at app, XDA people to machine YP-free version, I didn't pay attention to the MB886 is there, anyway, is the ~
