I'm new to this device. Came from a og dinc. I'm liking the device so far but I would really like to put cm10.1 on it. Anything I should watch out for when I root this thing?

As long as you have not taken the update in the past week, just use Matt's Utility in these forums to root/unlock (version 1.20 for 4.1.2). Nothing to it really.
How do I know if I took the update? I just got this device yesterday!

Post a screenshot of your about phone screen. Also, of you're asking about a build from May, I'm petty sure that's the update. The last one was from March.
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
Your device probably shipped with 4.1.1. DO NOT accept any updates that come your way
Please post a screenshot of your about phone screen.
Also, I would recommend you unlock your bootloader after rooting.

Never mind I can't root. Just missed it. Hope they fix it soon.

I've been rejecting an update recently.
My phone was built 4-5-13. Android 4.1.2
So it's safe to root? Keep rejecting the update? All I really want, for now, is superuser access. Well that, and to be able to turn off these stupid system updates lol.. But the last phone I rooted was a Dinc lol...

Has P3Droid obtained full access to the X? Or was the GB leak only allowed because it was a leak of the official. Will CM7 be possible one day?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
The only real progress I know of is the team working with kexec(sp). They bypassed the bootloader, but need drivers. Dev is pretty still...
As for P3, I was sure he had a dev phone that wasn't locked down at all. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
No p3 has dev phones. I think they got the wifi driver and are waiting on bluetooth. Although I haven't seen any new posts on the official bluetpoth thread for a while.

Wasn't there something a few weeks ago where someone 'discovered' the bootloader keys and told Motorola to release them or he would? Or is my brain playing tricks again?

I just got an OTA update. Is this new or am I just really late getting it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I had heard there was another update coming...
your 4.24 ota update
I have 2 answers for you:
1. it's late.
2. if your phone is rooted, DON'T download it! It will kill your root. a few of the devs have already rooted 4.22 and 4.24 -- look around in the threads.
3. if you phone IS NOT rooted, download it.
Hmmm, so....what got updated? Can't find anything new.

I'm guess that you should wait until we get a leak ourselves or possibly the bootloader gets totally unlocked or by passed. or just flash one of the leaks back everything up and see what works or not.
Not quite the answer I'm lookin' for, but since u wanna be heard... Thank you for ur response!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
one you probably should state if your rooted or not. are you using this bootloader hack http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292157
and other things might be helpful. I've flashed most of the 9505 tw ROM 4.2 and had no problems with them have not tried any of the leaks or build off the leaks read that a few where having issues with wifi. I would probably just ask in the 9505 for if anyone has tried the leak.
There are a couple custom recovery (cwm, twrp...) flashable roms for the 4.3 leak.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2467693 from T-Mobile section based on the first leak and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2372286 in the international section based on the second leak

I am not mf3 so already running Jamison's 4.3 from TMO forum--running great--I love it
well maybe in a few weeks for the US variants. but I would not hold my breath with att and verizon they have to make sure the bootloader lockdown will be enforced and they can put all of their bloat. http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-19736_...g-galaxy-s4-gets-official-android-4.3-update/
We need the source posted so that devs can mod the stock kernel. Not anticipating an Att release this month for 4.3
Still more interested to see 4.4 drop for the 9505g. Looks like that was really what key lime pie was going to be.

There is no need to do the entitlement check anymore guys, foxfi finally updated and made it where it will work with maxx,mini, and last but not least, Ultra. If you have done the entitlement check then you are set, but if you got caught in the updates and didn't ever do it this is the way to get tethering for only 8 dollars one time!!

WOOOHOOO Confirmed FoxFi working again, I also bought it many moons ago, maybe those having trouble are trying to use the free version?
Very much appreciated, the only reason I ever rooted my phone was for tether. Now after OTA there's a cryptogram of crap to go thru for root,

First of all three weeks isn't that long yet, I've been (im)patiently waiting since VZW got it
Second of all, cranking the Update Motorola Software button won't help you a bit, they push out a batch of updates every now and again, if you didn't get it then you won't get after hitting the button either. Just sit tight and it'll come in due time...

me either... still waiting. I check to look every 30 minutes. I know it doesn't help to do so, but I hope that one time it will find it and BAM 4.4.
Maybe you have to be on WiFi because I went to my friends house turned on my WiFi and got the update soon after. This was yesterday. Currently running kitkat and it's buttery smooth.
Look in the sprint dump thread. Very easy way to flash it without root or custom recovery.

Probably not through area but probably 'completely random'. just draw a few numbers and go with that...
Not sure if WiFi makes a difference but I noticed that I got the update when I flipped it on..
