How can I tell which bootloader I have?
You can use an app like Root Checker or Phone Info from the Playstore.
does this knox void?

Flashing the custom recovery will trip KNOX.
This method worked for me on the MF9 bootloader.
Wifi and data (LTE at least) are working.
Only thing is that I'm constantly getting a "Sprint ID stopped working" popup notification.
Update:
Apparently factory reset/wipe data breaks wifi
That's not good
samjam keep us posted. Were you able to get wifi restored?
Data connection still holding?

Turns out wifi wasn't working because my router was on the fritz. I kept getting force closes using the NAE rom from Uknownforce after I restored with TiBu, so I had to flash back to MK2, at least until a newer NAE rom comes out. Still on NAE firmware with MF9 bootloader. Everything is working fine for now.
dumb question

Either in an adb shell or terminal emulator, type this:
Code:
getprop ro.bootloader
It should then return your current bootloader. If it's MJA/MK2/NAE you CANNOT downgrade it, because of KNOX.

Ps: Is my update working ?
I didn't try it yet. I prefer TWRP, so I was going to test if it's working with it. But I just got the XT1039 last week, so I set it up to my liking, then I unlocked bootloader to root it, so second setup, and then I messed up deleting some files (don't really know what happened), so I had to set it up for the 3rd time just yesterday. I'm not in the mood of wiping it again just yet!
But i will
EDIT: Just installed it, with TWRP and wiping only cache. Works like a charm!
I did the update with the file above without any wipe (except cache)

It works perfectly, thank you!
I was having some trouble updating to 4.4.4 using OTA as I changed a lot in the stock rom. After spending hours reverting changes, I still couldn't get it to work (without flashing stock and starting all over again, which I didn't want to do really).
Was thinking of starting all over again, flashing stock image, OTA to 4.4.4 and changing everything after that, when I came across your thread.
You saved me from spending hours having to start from scratch! Top job!
I only flashed your file from my OTG drive in TWRP , over my heavily changed system, and it works like a dream.
See this screenshot I took right after flashing and reboot:

Nice work Darius.
Also had probs with 4.4.4 OTA due to custom recovery/rooting.
This was easiest way to 4.4.4 happiness....
I want to try this one, but I want to know how can I verify that bootloader is locked or not, and how can I unlock it.
Any threat talking about this?
PD: Could be unlocked from adb typing "fastboot oem unlock"?
Will this work for the XT1039 from Great Britain? Build numbers are the same but instead of EU there is a GB. I bought mine from Amazon and it is the unlocked version.
Awesome!
Hi,
Just installed on my 4.4.3, wiping only the cache partition as you said. As far as I can see everythying works perfectly.
Thank you man !

The bootloader is proprietary so you need to ask Motorola for an unlock code. "Fastboot oem unlock" won't work. There are a lot of threads about this in Q&A and General.
I just finished updating my GB version to this EU version and it worked great! No issues to report. Installed CWM recovery, then EU 4.4.4., wiped cache then installed superuser. Fantastic work with no lost data. My 32GB sdcard works too!!!! AMAZING
I tried using a Sandisk 32 Gb sd card (bought in 2011, and still working perfectly in my old HTC Desire) that didn't work in this phone before the update, but it still doesn't. Have seen other reports about the same issue, so I guess not every sd card problem is solved with the 4.4.4 update.
The card mounts normally, I can see the files on it in any explorer, but it's not possible to read from or write onto the card.
Phone can't format the card, and a check with a Windows pc doesn't show anything wrong with the card.
Strange huh? Any ideas?

I factory reset the device and still I could not. I flashed the rom via recovery and that seemed to solve it.. perhaps xposed changed something that was not cleared on wipining

Factory Reset does not touch your system partition. Only wipes your data.
Xposed would have modified your system partition to prevent ART. Flashing a new rom would restore your system partition to how it was.
Next time, either disable xposed before uninstalling. Or if that doesn't work, either fastboot flash the system.img chunks found in the stock firmware OR flash the same firmware in a custom recovery (if zip available). This will refresh your system partition and restore any changes without affecting your data.
Edit: ignore
Wait so will this work on the XT1045?
I have flashed this ROM and my SD card (Sandisk 16 GB) is still not recognized by the phone. Any advices ?

Hey guys,
I installed safestrap 3.75 on my att note 3 (NC2 version). Couple issues I've noticed. When I reboot the phone, the screen says safestrap: disabled. So I click on "recovery mode". Now I"m in SS and try to back up my stock rom. I select backup, swipe to perform backup. It says backup failed. Questions are how do I get ss to enabled and why did the backup failed? Was ss installed incorrectly in the first place?
TIA.
Cyanogenmod?
Has anyone had any luck with installing Cyanogenmod via Safestrap? I'm currently getting just a black screen with CM11 (M11) or the CM-variant temasek v151.

first of make sure you're running the latest version, second it will say safestrap disabled when you have your Rom in stock slot, it becomes active when you have your stock Rom on stock slot and you create a slot and install your custom Rom in another slot.

With locked bootloader you can't install anything but stock based roms, for our note 3, and you're not flashing kernel either. Until the bootloader get unlocked nothing aosp based or cm we'll boot up.
RoloRacer on KillerKat Note 3
I have used this before on the t-mobile version of the note 3. I used it initially because I didn't want to break Knox. However, I now have twrp fully working on my note, with Knox tripped, but I'm wandering if it is save to use this to dual boot roms. That way I can rock my regular dd, and still boot some rocking aosp roms or some cm. Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
Where's the .apk?
I followed the links for download at the top of the thread, but once downloaded all I have is a .zip file. There's no .apk in the zip. Suggestions welcome.

I have a Galaxy Note 3 n900a AT&T and its rooted, busboy installed, Knox disabled and superuser. I followed every step to install safestrap but it doesn't boot into recovery at all. It boots to the Samsung Galaxy note 3 screen twice and then that's it. I've even tried wiping and factory reset and starting over. That didn't work either. Any idea where to go from here? ?

In superuser there is a checkbox ☑ in the menu, that reads "temp unroot". I personally have supersu and I am not willing to test it anyway. You can try and report back
Edit: I think I found why we can't update. It's because we have removed the bloatware.

Because you've uninstalled some system apps. Your rom is changed forever. Factory reset only wipes the /data partition. It cannot restore deleted system apps. If you want so much to update you must reinstall the rom.

I just learned the hard way that factoty reset won't solve the problem.
How can i reinstall the rom ?
There are three ways. First you can try repair your with PC companion. By using this way you will update as well, but you will loose all your data and you will get unroot. Second you can install a ftf file with flashtool, depending on the ftf you will get updated or not. And the third way is by flashing any lollipop zip.
First way is good coz its official you wont get any problems. but now repair option not coming now because new update received :/
now sol. is download stock rom and flash. but i am afraid. can i loose something after flash using flashtool?
I woke up this morning to a 95mb Android system OTA update. I cant find any mention of it on the T-Mobile support site.
I am currently on H81120o the latest build according to T-Mobile.
I imagine it's probably just security updates...
Anyone have any knowledge of this update and it's contents?
TIA
What's the Software version after the Update?
Did you find anything different from 20o?
I grabbed the file.
It looks like a radio update.

No, flashed over a fresh install of H81120o. I'm trying to root now.
Rooted fine flashing phh's SuperUser hidesu r266 in TWRP.
Passes SafteyNet check.
Done.
Unrooted first using 20o kdz file and flashed with LGUP, let it finished bootup and flashed again with update.zip.
You can use fastboot boot TWRP to enter TWRP and root again.

Haha. I just rooted this phone for the first time yesterday. Figures. Is it recommended I take this update? Can someone explain in n00bish terms how I should go about this? Here's my very basic understanding:
Boot into TWRP. Wipe and then install 20o kdz with TWRP. Install update with TWRP (where do I get this?). Flash SuperSU with TWRP. Install ROM of my choice. Dearie me this is mildly annoying.
unrooting is very simple. its within the settings of the Supersu app. For an update to work i i believe you must be on stock recovery as well, which can be flashed in twrp.
I unrooted and used LGUP to upgrade and install the stock recovery and still could not get it to install. When I pressed the button to reboot and install it would never reboot. Looks like I would need to do a refurbish to get it to install which would wipe my phone. Maybe someone like @MicroMod777 could make a TWRP flashable zip for the update.
Got the update today. Now on H81120p. Is there a change log?

My carrier is 4G only. So, I face a lot of issue. Most of the time there is no network on the ground floor. And if there is its unstable.
There is no issue when I am higher levels in buildings or outside. But my room is at ground floor and I have no network there. The phone becomes useless when I am at home.

Hi everyone, proud new owner of a Blu R1 HD here. I've been loving the phone ever since I got it. I flashed TWRP, installed the latest version of systemless root and xposed and was a happy camper. But I stupidly wanted more and started messing around with Magisk and trying to get that to work. I didn't back up my stock boot.img like I was supposed to, so after some failed attempts at installing Magisk (and its new MagiskSU) and some bad attempts at uninstalling SuperSU I just flashed the stock boot.img to the device over via fastboot. I then reflashed the latest versions of SuperSU and Xposed, but for whatever reason, my 4G data won't connect at all. I didn't touch any of the settings and I definitely know it isn't a carrier or plan issue. Does flashing the stock boot.img mess with stuff like this? I'm not all that acquainted with this stuff aside from basic flashing and Rom stuff, so I don't really know what could be going on. Literally everything is working just fine except my data... Any ideas? Thanks in advance!

What boot.img did you flash? You didn't back up yours.
Amazon version and oem should have been the same ,(blu only released one version of source) but v7.4.2 and v17 both updated the configuration to include band 12 and volte. So if you are on older version of rom and flashed newer boot , maybe thats the reason.

My phone came out of the box with version 6.1, so i was able to flash the modified stock update from here that updates the phone from 6.1 all the way to 7.4.2. I took the boot.img from the vanilla 6.1 prime update and flashed it, so that is probably what the issue is. I assume the next step would be to flash the boot.img from the 7.4.2 version, but I can't seem to find a normal version of the v.7.4.2 update that I can just take the boot.img from (unless I can take it from one of these flashable zips?). If it helps, here is a screenshot of my system info which has all the version numbers and whatnot.

Well, now here is another weird issue. The 4G LTE data is working perfectly fine and speedy as ever, but MMS messages are not being received or sent for whatever reason now. I've already manually entered the correct APN settings and reset them as well to no avail. Any suggestions on this? I've also tried some other SMS apps (such as Pulse) and cleared Messenger's cache and data settings, but that all seems like it did nothing.
Edit: Well, I just flashed the modified 7.4.2 rom that's from the Rom's section of the Blu R1 HD board and MMS is working again. Looks like something other than the boot.img was messed up or something. I did a dirty flash so luckily my roms are in tact.
Edit 2: Sigh, I have no idea what's happening. MMS keeps getting screwey whenever I even start playing around with Xposed (more specifically, Gravity Box). I have no idea why this is happening now all of the sudden. A few days ago before I messed with Magisk, Gravity Box wasn't messing with my MMS messages (at least... I don't think it was...).
