Turbo Bootloader Update
​
Now that we have root, the next step is having the bootloader unlocked, right? Well here is an app to keep track of just that. It may look a bit familiar to some of you...
Are you stuck at work and want to know if we have bootloader unlock? Are you away from a computer? Did you just kill a man and you can hear the sirens in the distance.. knowing they are coming to get you.. and need to know before you're canned.. "do we have bootloader unlock?" Then this is the app for you.
I decided to change up the root checker app to the bootloader checker to keep hope alive. There are still some working on it. Furthermore, there is a latest news section so that you can get a little more information than a yes or no. I also specifically chose to put this in the Droid Turbo General forum because it's mostly informational. Not much Turbo Related development going on here. Check it out!
Initially, I was messing around with Google's new Material Design standards I decided to throw this together. I then was messing around with parsing json in lua with Corona's SDK and decided to modify the original app. It'll be updated the moment the bootloader has been unlocked.
For those of you who aren't aware:
ROOT IS HERE! Go get it! Tutorial is here. Post is here.

Nice work man, lets hope this app is only useful for a few days just like with the root version!

I think I rooted, how can I tell?

I followed 42turkeys' excellent How To Root and everything seemed to work as it should. I then used the ROM and root updates from andrewb84uk and they went on OK with no apparent problems. Andrewb84uk has since seemed to lose faith in his own ROMs, although other users, like me, are happy with what he's done. My phone seemed to be working fine, I can boot into recovery mode, and I really like some of the new features on 2.1.
So, my question is this; how can I tell that the root worked OK? I never really investigated the OS too much when it was running 1.5, so I'm not sure I'd spot too many of the subtle differences. Also, it is an updated OS, so any change I see may simply be an update rather than the result of root.
Does simply the fact that I can boot in recovery mode confirm that root is successful?
Go to the android market and type in Screenshot in search...

[THEME]M3NT4L-Star Wars

This is something that I've been messing with for the last few days. I've never tried modding stuff before now, but hopefully this will pass for a decent one.
It isn't the final that I am hoping for, but so far so good. I have just ran short on ideas. And I am game for just about any suggestions.
If anyone would like to try this just flash the zip in CWM. It modifies images in 2 files, all located in system/apps. They are... Acer Ring.apk, as well as systemui.apk
It has only been tested on my tablet which is running Civato's Flexreaper R1 with the v4 bootloader. I Can't say anything for compatability with other roms. I would guess that it will be fine tho.
My request to those that install this would be to please share any ideas for some of the other system icons (specifically those visible on the home screen.). Icons like the wifi (needs to be something that has levels for power indication.), the microphone up near the search bar and the app drawer launcher icon.
Screenies...

I will add to this as time permits. I'd love to do something with the lock screen, just need to figure out where that sucker's hiding...
Also, if you do something goofy and bork your tablet, as usual, it's all on you...
Enjoy!
p.s. Thanks to Civato for the great rom, and unknowingly giving me a little nudge in the right direction. Plus I used his MOD installer zip and FlexReaper rom as the base for this.

Thoughts on Another Root Method for SU6-7 24.3.7

I ran a test with bluebox's "trustable" app on my new Droid MAXX System Version 24.3.7 SU6-7 (just got it today new out if box in that firmware..) Anyway Trustable is a really cool app that tells you what insecurities your stock ROM/kernel or even custom roms and kernels may have present. I noticed that there is an insecure region in the GraphicsBuffer of Libui called CVE. Both the RAZR M and RAZR HD are rootable via the CVE exploit (which is apparently an insecurity in all Android Versions 5.0 and below.) The root tool for the Razr M and HD is a .bat windows script called "Hydrogen Peroxide". The mechanism that it works by is pretty neat, and it's a good 10 minute or so process, but in both those phones (I've tested both) root is granted with write protection turned off AKA a hard reboot won't kill the root... I'm not brave enough to experiment with any of this myself being that I literally just got this phone, but if any developers could look into this weakness for the possibility of a root exploit, well that'd just be awesome. @sd_shadow and @tokarenok are the OPs in the Razr M and HD threads and if we can use their same process for rooting, proper credit should be given. http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr-hd/general/root-droid-razr-hd-xt926-183-46-15-t3062040 <-- Razr HD Hydrogen Peroxide thread.
Here's a screenshot of Bluebox's report.

It seems people are already looking into exploiting CVE-2015-1474, but a working exploit doesn't seem to exist yet.

MXPE MM6.0 Multi-Window - Does it have it?

I'm still on 5.1.1 and I used Multi-Window on my old Note devices daily for work. I found a temporary workaround (although it's still a MAJOR hassle without it) and this is the Android M feature I've been dying for. Pleeease, please please tell me it made it into the final release for this device. Did it?

Out of the box, no...But supposedly this is a way to enable it. Someone would have to try that out and report back I guess.

Works ok...

Yeah, I installed 6.0, and tried it out. It works... kind of. It's more incomplete than I had hoped and won't work for my purposes. oh well.
If you have root you can enable it easy with a root explore.
