Does anyone think the Z1s should have its own thread or at least sub-category?
Just a thought.
It's the same exact phone but with a locked bootloader and most likely not much development, so no I don't think it needs its own subforum

I guess I meant more towards its own accessory forum. Much like the LG-G2 Verizon has its own.

So I would be able to root my Z1s using the Z1 method?

This was not confirmed yet by any Developer so wait until then, do not risk to brick you phone, the solution will come soon.

I don't see why we couldn't have our own sub-forum at least. Request for one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1660354

I already tried. It doesn't work just like how you cannot .290. I doubt you can downgrade to a Z1 firmware.

Yes Please!
So rumor has it right now that theres an update coming out for the G Flex next month in April that is supposed to include 4.4 and also knock code. Do you guys think that this is an update everyone should do? Or is it going to make it even harder for people trying to unlock the bootloader if we update?

I'm pretty sure the current root method won't work once the Flex is updated to KitKat. I know with the G2 a developer was able to make a stock KitKat Rom with Root quickly. Not sure the Flex will be so lucky since the Flex seems more locked down then the G2. I was a flash whore but I'm cool with stock for now.

Sprint is usually quick with updates so hopefully they push it out real soon
Gonna be awhile I'd imagine for US due to most of the carriers taking their good Ole time pushing them through. Just bought mine today and has 4.2.2, lol! I had 4.3 on my note 2. I wish I had a time machine like that, haha!

Just got a reply from LG that there will come official info for the EU/nordic model within a few weeks
For those of us that are rooted how will we get the ota update? Will it come to use and we can just do the update and still keep the root or do we have to unroot in order to update?

You would need to unroot. Do not try ota while rooted.

there haven't been any updates on the flex, so no one knows if you can do it or not..
the cardinal rule has always been NEVER do an OTA update if you are rooted..

according to all the internet rumor mills/sources, its coming sometime in the next 30 days.
since each carrier has their own "version" that they push, it could be alot sooner or alot later, depending on your carrier..
SRS Root claims via their twitter and website that KOT49H.N900AUCUCNC2 is now rootable as of 1-April. Has anyone tried this method?
Note: This is the OTA update downloaded from AT&T.
If it was rootable, we would be well aware. Can you provide a link?

This is what I found but i'll have to study this a little more. Searching google I haven't found anybody that used this since we got the update and knowing we just got this special bootloader with the 4.4.2 update.
on their site under Last Actions by our Users, it does show someone rooting our device, but who knows... tempting to try maybe

yeah, i just updated it and it changed, but maybe it's just updating to the newest activity? when i saw it it was definitely the KitKat NC2 firmware that was supposedly rooted

Same here. The app says successful but no root on the phone.
Tried to download it... Got this.... FYI
EDIT:
This is possibly part of the method the software uses to gain root access...
I have never heard of this before. Things like this make me nervous. I like recognized XDA developers showing me how to root. Got a screen shot of NC2 being rooted.
Could be real... but...

However, once unlocked on 4.4.2, you can freely downgrade back to 4.1.2 and have an unlocked bootloader as well

Downgrading your security version will brick your device, so I wouldent suggest it.
However, you can use AOSP 4.1.2 with it.

Then just don't flash the security component. Just do System and I think boot? I'd have to check mine, but I went from 4.4.2 to 4.1.2 and back to 4.4.2 again. It can be done if you are careful

If you update everything to 4.2.2, unlock, then flash your modem, kernel and system to 4.1.2 you might have success.

The XT907 is surprisingly capable for its age.
Hoping that Verizon launches an LTE variant of the Moto G. It's a worthy successor to the RAZR M.
was this thread really necessary? the page u linked to links to a thread on xda in the razr m general section http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783912
Unlocked it the first chance I got but for some reason the custom recovery won't work. However, if you guys got it working on your phones, mind if you can toss me the rope, so I can fix it.

Now, it's time to rape the bloatwares.
All the roms are now based on a build that's not official at least in the T-Mobile website we still have 5.0.1 aka COD6. My question is if I update my device to the new Android version. Will T-Mobile not notice that ? Im going to jump to a new device soon. But will like to try out the new 5.1.1 see how smooth it is.

I've been with tmobile for about 8 years. My experience has been the people at the tmobile stores could care less if your phone has a custom ROM. Ive wiped my phone front of them the phone goes into a custom recovery. Either they are oblivious or don't care. As long as the phone turns on, the glass is not cracked and there is no sign of water damage, your safe
