Hey guys!
I have an unrootable Droid 3, and I'm gonna sell it and get another one which I can't root.
I figur I'll have a hard time selling it here in Portugal once the languages in it are only English and Spanish.
How can I add anther language pack using its original rom?
Thanks in advance
Why not just use the correct root method?

---------- Post added at 03:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:05 PM ----------
if motofail_windows.zip has failed, it's because you missed a step.
1. download motofail_windows.zip
2. extract files
3. verify you downloaded and extracted all the files
a. motofail_windows folder should be 3.78mb
b. make sure you have a file named motofail that is 489 KB (may show as 490), if it is missing disable virus protection and redownload motofail
4. install moto drivers
5. Make sure your device is in USB debugging mode , attach it to your PC
6. change usb mode to charge only or pc mode
7. run run.bat in motofail_windows folder
8. follow on screen directions
I'll do it now.
Btw, what's ur opinion on the best recent rom for this phone?
Stability and speed are my major priorities.
my daily rom is Steel Droid: 5.6
but minmoto is more popular
For some reason steel droid rom wouldn't connect to gsm network.
So I've instalaed Avatar 4.2.2 and I'm really satisfied with it.
Thxfor ur help!

hi, I got my moto x which is from claro PR. It comes with Spanish language. Any one can help with the steps to change it to English?
Many thanks!
I have the same one, if you erase your phone from recovery when it boots up it will let you choose the language.

1. pull down notification bar
2. click on top right corner
3. click on the third box to the right on the topline (this is settings)
4. scroll down to the 14th option and click it (this is language & input) or described differently, under the third heading, click on the third option
5. click on the first option in that menu (that is language) then scroll to english
once you get to step 4, if you can't find the language & input thing, just look up those words in spanish and find it.
You could also unlock it with fastboot and flash another image

Hello Guys. I really appreciate your help and dedication.
I spent a lot of time tryng fix my XT862. When I bought it, was working with Att. When I didn't have access to MY Contacts I install a new ROM but I can't make to work again.
The phone is unlock and rooted, v.5.7.906.xt863. the Baseband is N_03.18.29P but if I flash to "radio883", I get Baseband unknow .
I changed the build.prop 1 to 0 and 7 to 3.
Maybe my xt883 radio is not the correct one? Please help. Thanks

Is there not a custom recovery available on 4.4.2 yet?
Is there a root option on 4.4.2?
I have a unlocked moto x
You say your unlocked. Your reference is to the boot loader right?
Sent from my XT1058 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Recovery is separate from whatever the base OS version you're running. You can root 4.4.2 if you have non-stock recovery, but that's it. Given your post though, you should just leave the phone stock.

Does anyone know how to root running 4.4.2? Only method I can find is to downgrade first to 4.2.2. If that is the only way, can somebody point me the way to a download and instructions to do this for the g flex?

supposedly you cant root with a factory 4.4.2. you have to downgrade first.
I've already answered you in one thread you posted this. Try to keep these in one place and you'll get some help. Use stump root from the g3 forum.

Tried yesterday even asked developer about my model to see if it could get supported. If so, he would be a hero to many a g flex owners
It looks like the only way to root D950G running stock 4.4.2 is to downgrade. Does anyone know where instructions are for that?
Oh I'm in wrong section. Dame, just created new thread, didn't see any other selections. Will look harder next time ****

When stump root said not supported did you select to brute force it? It worked perfectly on my T-Mobile flex so don't see why it won't work for yours.

Yes I brute forced twice. It seems all root methods work on t mobile but not my D950G model or at&t D950. Only way to I to downgrade so far. I have rooted a wack of phones and this is the easiest method ever, no screwing it up.

Well that's strange. Anyways of i get a second I'll make a twrp zip of the kit Kat for your phone. Then you can just flash that and before rebooting flash the latest supersu zip, like what D-Fuse made for T-Mobile.

By the way did you download the supersu apk and open it after running brute force. Stump doesn't install it and i had to open it and update su binary once before everything worked

Thanks but I am on kit Kat, I need to downgrade to jelly bean 4.2.2 to root. No I didn't install super user because it said device not supported
I'm taking about doing this with your stock kit Kat kdz. Then follow those instructions so after flashing the zip you'd flash the supersu zip. That would leave you on stock rooted kit Kat

Do you think I could use the first option? I see sprint, at&t, and t mobile. I use rogers, model almost at&t D950G compared to at&t's D950.
For the second option, is it ok to use for my flex if I get kdz/tot for this phone? Just wondering because it only says G2. Thanks
That's how i made the Sprint downgrade zip and D-FUSE made all his zips. Just download the latest kit Kat kdz for your phone and follow the instructions i linked. It's very easy, should only take an hour or so depending on your computer
Cool have everything downloaded will give a shot later. There's an app call lg phone from, it tells everything about phone and even gives link to your kdz

None, it doesn't unlock the sim or allow root. Most people use this to remove carrier bloatware or as a stepping stone to convert from one carrier firmware to another.
