Just wondering how I can check which bootloader I have? as in the froyo or gingerbread one? Iflashed JVK and then tried to flash old bootloader but I'm not sure if it worked.......
When you reboot to recovery mode isnt the bootloader version shown there? like by default 2e or something like that?
cant remember exctaly but think that's it? Personally I have clockwork mod installed and would highly recommend it.
You can try if on windows :
adb bugreport | find "bootloader"
or if on linux :
adb bugreport | grep bootloader
Bootloader info?
+1 to that question: can't run adb on windows connected to phone and adb on phone terminal doesn't work. Can't find info on bootloader on default CW recovery.
Phone info shows Baseband version I9000XXJVK - but I don't know its connected anyhow?
There is no simple way to tell which bootloaders you have installed, there is no code to display it, no settings menu that will give you a clue. To be honest, 99,999 times out of 100,000 there is absolutely no need for you to know if you have Froyo of Gingerbread bootloaders.
However if you really want to know, and know your way around .bin files and hexadecimal editors, you can try the methods advised in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16319901&postcount=13308

I did it and, in my case (sgs i9000 cm7.1) says:
[ro.bootloader]: [unknown]
is it bad?

and me also but for i9305
7 years later, here is the answer:
The current bootloader version can be checked by running the command getprop ro.bootloader in a terminal app or an adb shell from a command prompt (on Windows) or terminal (on Linux or macOS) window.

Easiest solution: use the app Kernel Adiutor, you’ll find the info on the “Device” tab.
8 years later, here is the simple answer:
Use cpuz for android under "system" tab!

I unlocked my bootloader and everything was fine. Then I installed CM10.1.2 and it loads to the initial Welcome screen (where you select country) but the touch doesn't work at all. The volume and power button works but I can't tap anything.
Also no softbutton shows.
I also tried flashing CM10.1.0 and the latest FXP rom.
If anyone helps solve this it would be so appreciated.
Sounds like you flashed the wrong version for your phone.

I have an Xperia T and I flashed CM Mint.
ok, try flashing a stock ftf in flashtool to see if touch screen comes back.
If that works redownload the cm mint .zip and try flashing it again.
Let me know how you get on

I flashed yours onto my phone and it loads up but the same problem happens The touchscreen still doesn't work.
I saw this earlier before heading to work: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39920703&postcount=11
But when I adb shell I don't get a [email protected] I have some garbled text. Basic commands like ls work. su is not found though, neither is the rmi4_fwloader command found. But then adb devices showed it in "recovery" mode not "device". Though on this computer adb devices shows nothing but fastboot does. Did flashing the stock rom relock it?
Thanks

That postwas my next piece of advice to you...
ok, have you unlocked your bootloader? Have you rooted the new firmware? Use bin4ry or doomlords rooting method to root the firware and try again.
also, you can use a USBOTG cable and a mouse to control the phone instead of the touchscreen

The bootloader was still unlocked after putting your firmware on.
Is there a way of enabling usb debug mode outside of the phone? I'm guessing that's what's needed to get adb shell to work.
Woohoo! Progress! Still broken, but progress!!!!
I installed PdaNet and it made adb drivers work. Then I did adb shell from recovery.
This part is important:
The path is messed up on my phone so if anyone has trouble with that method for similar reasons would have to do the same:
Code:
/sbin/su
/system/bin/rmi4_fwloader -b /system/etc/firmware/touch_module_id_0x32.img -d /sys/bus/rmi4/devices/sensor00 -r -f
(echo $PATH is /sbin/ but for some reason su doesn't work without /sbin/. if /sbin/su doesn't work what I actually did was cd /sbin then su)
(It is important to run /system/bin/rmi4_fwloader because it simply can't find rmi4_fwloader, even if you cd /system/bin/)
Now my touch works! I just have no software buttons
Any idea how to get my.. nevermind, after going through the startup bit they just appeared.
Thank you you are a genius!
No problem, Glad its sorted for you now.
i ahve tried to install a custom rom but it didnt flash properly, and i tried to do a restore of my stock rom but its not on my phone anymore all i can do is put the phone into bootloader and recovery, i have my stock rom backed up on my pc, but i cant find a way of getting my pc to recognise the phone to enable me to get the stock rom installed, my 400pound htc one might as well be a paperweight at this rate!!
surly there is a way i can get acess to the internal sd card??

It depends on the recovery, but it works in TWRP.
It is the ROM that is rooted, so if you sideload a non-rooted ROM and flash it, you will lose root. It seems you don't have a working ROM, so you don't "have" root.

Let me correct you. You had a custom ROM that was rooted.
My suggestion is to fix the problem.
I can't help you because:
1) I don't know what recovery you have
2) I don't know what tutorial you followed
3) I don't know in which way it is "not working"
I suggest you flash TWRP 2.6.3.4 and use adb sideload.

You need to get adb working on your PC or you could try what bored_stupid is suggesting. You are a long why from requiring supersu at this point.

You don't even have a working rom so why are you still talking about root??? You don't need root to use a usb otg cable to flash a rom.
Make sure you have the latest android sdk installed on your computer and latest htc drivers.

It is problem globally! Google is experiencing major error with sync servers.
or try this: go to accounts.google.com and in security (left panel) go to the list of 3rd party applications that are using your Google credentials and start revoking the applications that you no longer use.

I'm trying to root my Motorola Razr i XT890.
First I need to unlock the bootloader (right?), so I was fallowing this thread: Unlock the Bootloader on Your RAZR i
The thread is about 2 years old, so if is there any new solution for rooting my phone, please point me to the right direction.
1. I've downloaded the USB driver and the full SDK from moto site. I've installed the USB driver and unzipped the SDK (I was not able to find any install.exe, I clicked "SDK Manager.exe" but nothing happens).
2. Config the phone to USB debug, reboot in fastboot mode, plugged to USB.
3. I opened the CMD, get into the adt-bundle-windows-x86_64-20140321\sdk\platform-tools\ where fastboot.exe and typed: fastboot oem get_unlock_data
the result is: FAILED (remote: Restricted OEM command)
Some phone data:
Version: 982.50.29.XT890.Brasil.en.BR

Welcome.
You don´t need to unlock the bootloader to root!
If you are on JB 4.1.2 than the only you need is: "Twerk my Moto" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2541398
If you are on ICS 4.0.4 you will need "motofail2go". (second link in OP) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928509
Hope i could help. Good luck!
Thank you for the info. So I do not need to unlock the bootloader. Nice. Anyway, this is odd that I'm not allowed to do so. Also, there is almost no info about this issue.
My Android version is 4.1.2. I followed the link you pointed and the instructions are:
To use:
adb push su /data/local/tmp/
adb push rootme.sh /data/local/tmp/
adb push TwerkMyMoto.jar /data/local/tmp/
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/tmp/rootme.sh

ADB is a comandline-tool like cmd.exe, google how to use...
1. Install RAZRi drivers.
2. Enable USB-Debugging in Developer-Options on Handy.
3. Download ADB files (ADB is a comandline-tool, google how to use)
4. Extract "TwerkMyMoto.zip" (rootme.sh + SU + TwerkMyMoto.jar MUST be in same folder with ADB.exe)
5. Connect your RAZRi to PC and run ADB.exe. Check if ADB shows Handy as "device".
6. Follow the Steps "To use". (You have to copy and paste each line in the ADB-Window and execute it)
Good luck!
Thank you very much, as son as I try it I'm going to post the result here!

I have had a look in the source code some time ago...
something is loaded into system filesystem and needs a reboot to commit changes.
After that it needs to execute again. So thats why the line is doubled...

Now u are rooted i recommend u to enable Adobe Flash: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1952878&page=4 (last page)
And to start modding try "Xposed Framework". There u can load tons of "mods" on to your handy.
i recommend "Xposed Framework" + GravityBox + YouTube Addaway.
(maybe its better to backup your important Data befor playing around...)
And no worries that u mess up your device. If u stuck in bootloops or something else is broken just flash back your original firmware with RSD-Lite: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2239706

Hi there, I am having the same issue but my OS version is 4.4.2 now.
There is also a nice guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928551
But I would still need the code.....
So what do you propose I should do? I only need root so I can use a directory binding tool to make some room on the internal space, I ran out and can no longer update the apps....
(Btw. I did unlock my first RAZR, but that one broke down so now I am on an used one.. )
Thanks!
Hey dudes,
since no one ever did this, I uploaded all Oreo Stock (retbr) for or beloved XT1789-05 released so far.
Here are the link:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/emeuwiyaxpqqu56/AABKMNnrmMOwR5S0pBH2d7lWa?dl=0
The folder also contains RSD-lite for Mac and Linux users.
Enjoy.
if you are a Linux or Mac user and don't know how to use RSD, *I'll show you how to do with simple steps.
here we go:
1- Unzip the RSD-lite folder on your desktop;
2- Unzip the firmware zip and copy all files to the RSD folder on your desktop;
3- Open your terminal and go to the RSD-lite folder and connect your cellphone on USB with USB DEBUBBING ON;
4- Type this commands and hit ENTER after every line:
adb reboot bootloader
if you are on Linux;
bash rsd-flash.sh flashfile.xml
if you are on Mac:
./rsd-flash.sh flashfile.xml
press enter to start the flash from terminal
5- Watch for any errors. If no errors at the end of the script then press enter to reboot the device.
Many thanks to @Liboicl for the Linix script and @rootjunky for Mac script.
I'll keep adding the firmware on this folder as soon they pop up .

That happened because the bootloader noticed slot B doesn't have Oreo firmware on it. I'll make a .sh and .bat for you in a couple of days for AOSP from the files in that zip. It will be firmware only, no system or OEM images as it will be for AOSP prep more than back to stock.

Installing twrp shouldn't matter the model. Just boot to twrp and flash the zip, it will edit your current boot image and not mess with any special properties like radio stuff that differ from model to model.
