Rest assured, some of the most talented people in Android development are working to find an exploit that works. If there is a way to modify the KFHD, they WILL find it. If not, you will still have a "fully" functional Amazon product portal.

System Dumps/Sdk images - anything that we can get our hands on

I'm hitting the reload button on the sdk tools constantly waiting for api level 17 to become available - if anyone gets a system dump post here
Hope, that Google releases them very soon. The Android Developer Website still shows, that Jellybean 4.1 is the current Version.
http://developer.android.com/about/versions/jelly-bean.html
It's just two more weeks ha-ha!
I too am interested in a dump. I need a dump.

Better to keep on eye on that website, it gets updated really quickly when a new version is officially released.

[Q] Downgrade AT&T 4.4.2 Moto X to 4.2.2

Hi everyone, I was wondering if it is possible to downgrade my Moto X from AT&T running on 4.4.2 down to 4.2.2?
There's a very big risk of bricking your phone if you downgrade. Either right away, or by accidentally taking an ota after.
Some say there are ways to downgrade, but most here will just simply say... No. You can't unfortunately.
Again, you can research how to supposedly do it "safely".... but even following those directions, mistakes can happen, and boom. Paperweight.
Plus ... there's no real reason to. That I can see.

No this is no way to do that I know of

Ok thank you very much for your response. Oh man :/ well the thing is that I was wanting to root my phone but it seems like
there isn't a way to do this unless the phone was downgraded.

[Q] Request for forum

Just got the ZTE ZMAX, has a lot of potential and would like to see a root method and maybe a rom? :highfive:
Just type zte zmax root into Google.

You forgot to mention your carrier.
But, this makes me think you have root:

Already looked into those and people have been posting in other forums about it not working. I got it with MetroPCS, its a decently specked phone for the price and I see a a lot of potential with it.

Return to stock & keep root

I see @Hashcode used to have stock images for Tate but those links are no more. Just bought fire phone and running cm11 very smoothly (came w a year of prime for $159 total--best phone deal ever!) But now I'm using my kfhd much less and figured my son could use it for books and stuff. Can someone point me toward a way to revert to stock but still keep root? I'm not quite ready to give up control so I really would like to stay rooted if possible. Thanks a lot
No one at all? lol.
I'll do a little more searching. The methods to return stock are out there but the ones I found involve losing root.

I have read the post. Some said they can unlock the phone bootloader through Taobao.
Then TWRP and flash the rom
Anyone tried getting the files. I can't seem to download them. Hoping someone gets them before they disappear
Just let us get the metode for building a custom ROM, then we find someone that build a safe and clean ROM with the driver package and some features like, face unlock (maybe from 6t) and the camera software.

Somewhere like mega. Just incase it is needed.
Most have locked bootloaders with no option to unlock, so this is only good for those that can....
Code:
Brush machine needs to be unlocked first. (Unlocked everything you can find treasure Amoy *)
Close the Find my mobile phone (cell phone back)
Win10 does not recognize the fastboot wire brush fixes: pan.baidu.com/s/1ge4zCor
in Figure operation, after the completion of the repair line can brush up
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------
Visitors, if you want to view the hidden content of this post, please reply
The brush machine can be used without double clearing.
The first start will be slower (depending on the installer) and it is expected to be around 1-3 minutes, please be patient! ! !
I can't reply. What is the files that are hidden? Are they the linked?

Impossible (even states on funky Huawei), that if device is frp locked then your out of luck (meaning opinion in developer options is greyed out).
But is great if you have a Chinese varient......:good:

We wouldn't really need them to. The Device is project treble, which means flash a system image and job is done. Everything else should pretty much work. Maybe issues with Kirin devices tho.
Mine chines
But no unlock bootloader option in devolper
