Pure Edition Boot and Recovery - X 2014 General

edit fixed bad upload
From Shipping firmware
Linux version 3.4.42-g815d8e9 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.7 (GCC) ) #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Aug 28 16:25:34 CDT 2014
Got root & dumped boot and recovery from a stock pure edition that I got a day early.
Don't have time to make a "superboot" or a "rootboot" to get everyone root but its trivial, and someone will get it done.
Enjoy.

And again... This is why i have no issues paying for sunshine!!! You throw this out cuz you can!!
Thanks again!!

Sorry to clarify... How close Does this get us to root on the pure edition?

Modify the boot.img to install su on boot, then boot it. Thats what I did to the second one.

[Q] WiFi Xoom ROM info

Could somebody who already got his WiFi Xoom post here info about ROM version installed? It should be in Setings -> About box.
Android version: 3.0.1
Kernel Version: 2.6.36.3-g2a4197e
[email protected] #1
Build number: HWI69
Thanks, emcd4!
Have you already tried to unlock bootloader? I just interesting do WiFi version have unlockable bootloader (like 3G mldel have).
No, I haven't tried to unlock it yet. I haven't seen the need yet for the Xoom.

The OEM Unlock works - but the MZ603 boot.img file (WiFi+3G model) will soft-brick your MZ604 (WiFi-only) model. Don't do it yet.

Agreed. I would hold off on trying to modify the wifi only xoom until there is more information about what the differences are in the software between the wifi+3g and wifi only versions.
I guess its good to know that the unlocking works.
Xaositek: I assume when you mean that there are problems with the MZ603 boot.img file, are you talking about the stock boot.img file released by Motorola or the overclock boot.img file by coolbho3000?

Both - even the stock MZ603 boot.img file will not fix the MZ604. Tried different stuff, but no dice. Ended up returning mine and now have a fresh MZ604.
Will try to create a MZ604 stock boot.img but not 100% clear on the instructions.

uk wifi preorder just arrived

hi,
Just recieved my preordered wifi tab in the uk.
I'm a bit surprised that it arrived before the launch party tomorrow.
It has touchwiz preinstalled and the rom vesion is KG8.
If this is a rom that has not been uploaded before let me know to to do a rom dump and i'll hook you guys up.
Liking it alot so far.
is the bootloader locked or unlocked? also do u have fastboot access ?
nice one! where did you get your pre-order from? anywhere cheaper than £399?
the bootloader is lock, no lock sign at boot. I havent tried fastboot yet, don't know much about it as my sgs doesnt have it.
Got from pcworld, they have an exclusive on the wifi model for the first month.
Will read up on fastboot.

You should its a very nice device
Does anyone have any google music beta invites they wouldn't mind giving me? :-D
Also heres screenshots of quadrant (2228) and antutu (4778).
How much is the offer with PC World? Are they stocking accessories yet? I am waiting for the TW update to come out but I think because mine is US model I have to wait for the US release of TW unless someone on here releases the update before hand.
So with the UK release you still can't access Google Music, Google Video and Google books? doh! I hope google bring this service to the UK.
i took the plunge and pre-ordered it! hopefully it gets dispatched today

Garh - I have mine on pre-order from Currys. They gave me the option of Tuesday delivery but as it cost a couple of £ more and I thought they wouldn't send it early...I went for Thursday so not to waste the extra money. Wish I had it ordered for today now

Thats a new unseen rom.
If you plan to root and install CW recovery me and many others would be happy to get the system.img
Ok its rooted and cwm recovery installed
Let me know how to pull the system.img and i'll upload it for you.
I have adb, but not used it much before.

Make a backup in recovery, the recovery folder on sd will contain the system.img
No personal info will be in the system.img
ok, didn't realise cwm made it that easy.
Uploading now to multiupload. Its going to take about an hour as its 500MB.

You haven't left your personal details etc in the nandroid have you? Just checking.

How do I stop OTA updates before possible root is achieved?

Is there any way to immediately disable any OTA updates directly out-of-the-box? I am hoping to be able to root at some point, but don't want to jeopardize my chances by letting VZ push out some sort of patch that makes it more difficult. I saw on another thread a how-to, but that was after root had already been achieved. Any help would be appreciated, and I'm sure it's something a lot of other people will be interested in as well. Please, if possible, give any instructions in laymans terms lol. I'm no major modder, but root is important to me, as I would like to be able to use the WiFi tether on my unlimited plan.
It doesn't install automatically. You still have to accept the update so just don't touch or do anything.

Okay great, thank you! If I get a notification, I will just ignore it for now.
My girl did that on her s3 a couple times, then one day she unlocked it to find her ota was installing itself anyway. She rejected it for a month before that happened.

I can't seem to get stock recovery to come up. I've even flashed the stock recovery again just in case. It comes up to just a black screen after i select recovery
That typically means it's corrupt. Check the md5 on it and verify that it's correct and flash it again.

Thanks i was an idiot. Thought I was on my nexus still. When RECOVERY was selected i kept hitting the power button. it would turn off the phone. I was supposed to hit volume up button to select recovery . *slapmymoto forehead*
I'm curious about the changelog

HAHAHA! That'd do it. I was going to mention volume up + power but you mentioned a black screen so I was a bit confused as that generally only happens with a corrupt recovery partition. Never considered that possibility. LOL

Just a note from me on this, I sideloaded it with no problem and kept root just as the OP said. Truly awesome that Moto didn't blast root with this update. Now we wait a few weeks for the FXZ. Let's not break anything until that happens. LOL
Can somebody re-upload the recovery file?
Is this the soak update or is it the official?
Or does it even matter?

Npf26j ota zip

Edit 2: speculation be damned. This seems to be a true release build and not a leaked developer preview like has been hypothesized. Flagged REL for a release build. https://imgur.com/uU0bR2S
THIS IS FOR PIXEL XL ONLY OF COURSE. November 22nd OTA Build NPF26J
Includes bug fixes and performance enhancements. New Modem and Kernel. Kernel updated to include Double Tap To wake and Lift to Wake. May be other features. Don't know.
https://ota.googlezip.net/packages/.../09c7f402fd047c0d631fdd6c4168c934d3b9451b.zip
Pulled from Reddit thread.
Edit: Apparently you have to be on V build before flashing.

This will only work from the V build FYI

Thank you, I thought I read it somewhere but can't find out where.
I'm not going to update anyway, perfectly happy with the way the phone is running with ElementalX kernel and don't want to mess it up
Will there be an update for the NDE63X build eventually or will we have to roll back to the V build?
I bought my pixel from Google but use on Verizon. My phone is running NDE63X. Should I be on V? Anybody else purchase from Google and run on Verizon that can confirm their build for me?
