Sprint 4.3 roms hitting international section (testers needed)

I see the Elegancia dev is looking for Sprint Beta testers. If you have time..... get over there and show some enthusiasm so we have more choices :good: (not that the choices are bad here of course :good: )
Not affiliated in anyway, just passing on the info.

Sprint Users:
Who is willing to test a early Elegancia ONE Sprint Edition?
Be prepared to run into aroma and rom bugs and eventually return to you previous version by backup and restore.
Also i need Sprint user who can tell me what is wrong as i have to rely on you guys to get this running.
It's a shot in the dark for as i'm blind deving due to lack of Sprint carrier here in the Netherlands.
Also a few mods are available.
Did not port those who are related to some sprint system files.
First priority is to get it booting and working.
Please contact me via PM.
And i will provide you with the beta details.

Thread moved to Q&A where it should have been posted originally. Please post in the correct sections; only things that are "created" belong in development. Next thread like this in development will receive more than a warning. Thanks.

First off, this is the development thread, opinion threads and such should go into the General section.
Secondly, creating Best threads is not advised on xda since it's unfair to the devs working on their respective ROMs and everyone has a different view for "best".
Lastly, most ROMs are similar since we are limited to Stock ROMs for now. Dynamic Kat is what I'm using mostly because it comes with an optional GPE theme which gives you a break from looking at Stock firmware and has all the goodies you will find in other ROMs.

Random rebooting.
I bought a note 3, n900a, off swappa.com.
It had firenote grand finale v16 ROM.
It's been randomly rebooting. 10 times in the first 24 hours.
I'm wholly unstudied on this ROM. I've seen that there's a v.17 out. But mostly I want to insure I didn't get a bad "mint" phone.
Swappa.com is recommended by xda.
sent using mobile data only. no broadband in Rural America as was promised by both Presidents Bush & Obama.

Problems getting phone to boot after installation
I installed version 6 and the latest and it says successful. But yet my phone boots to a black screen and stays black any help would be greatly a appreciated. Followed the instructions to a t. This is not my first flash so I'm not a noob..

Just downloaded and I had KK!! Softbricked...
Please help

Help with Note 3
I flashed a custom rom and it was a success until I reboot and then the phone just crashed. Now when I enter recover there is no system mount when trying to flash a different rom. What do I do?

V20 working wonderfully
I upgraded from version 7 to version 20 and flashed Walter's debloater script on top with the GPS fix script from Drakey since I have had problems in the past.
The upgraded version is really smooth. I run Aviate as a launcher and there is no delay. Battery life is great. 3.5% per hour with some pretty heavy usage. Overall I am super satisfied with the build. Glad to have stayed on 4.3 to be able to use this build.
Great job Mega.

How come I get a black screen after installed the rom?

Still on Fire Note v 20
I am still on v20 and loving it as well. From what I have heard you describe, there isn't much reason to switch over to Fire Kat.

v22
I know it will be awesome, I just have to find the time, and patience to re-flash. Great work nonetheless!

[ROM] FireNote Mj5 Deodex V22X Grand Finale: The Final Update
Hello Mega, before I do an odin restore I wanted to see if you knew why my phone wont boot after flashing this rom. In the past with other roms I know it was the kernel and after flashing the correct one it would boot successfully. I have tried the same process here with no success

I'm getting a black screen after install no splash screen or anything. Can anyone help me out plz

They include all of the code groups, header files and checksums as well as a RAM Downloader for all of the device partition images in a single file and flashed from the legacy boot loader enumerated as a flash device.
The new format for all dual core Motorola devices is zip archive of fastboot images and an XML file that can be used with RSD lite to flash in a single operation or flashed as individual images using the fastboot binary and DLLs in the Android SDK from the fastboot boot loader and enumerated as an ADB device.
These are entirely different modes of access and operation and SBF is both wrong and a misnomer for the firmware files for current devices.
The fast boot interface provides far more flexibility and safety for flashing than the old flash interface and avoids all kinds of problems that would arise from managing and updating he firmware on newer chipset devices.
It is an extremely important distinction to make and understanding to have about how these phones work.
Please stop using SBF when referring to XML.zip files.
The current acronym for Motorola firmware files is FXZ and means Full XML ZIP file."​.SBF, XML.zip and tar.gz" are Official Motorola file extensions​[SIZE=+1]Q13: Can I use the Droid Bionic, without activating with a carrier (WiFi only)?[/SIZE]Yes, see Bypassing the JB Activation Screen of any Motorola Device​*​Forum Rules | New Users Guide | XDA Tour | Report Posts​

I just pulled out my previous Droid Bionic to give to a friend and it has Android v2.3.4. It doesn't appear to be rooted but I think I may have done it when I was using it, but SU rights aren't available.
Details
Android v2.3.4
System Version 5.9.905.XT875.verizon.en.US
Baseband Version CDMA_N_04.07.02R LTEDC_U_07.1F.00
Kernel Version 2.6.35.7-g4fc328e
[email protected] #1
Build number 5.5.1_84_DBN-74
Webtop Version WT-1.3.0-108_DBN-24
I want to wipe this phone to factory and root it but not install any custom ROMS, just get it working for my friend who needs a phone. I would like to remove any bloat ware but that's not absolutely critical, just prevent it from being locked by Verizon, although it's going to be used on the Straight talk system.
I went through several of the forums but I'm not sure what I need to do to accomplish this?
Any suggestions or pointers would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks for any help!

wipe data in recovery

Thanks sd_shadow
I did all the wipes and didn't help what so ever ......but I did fix it as it turns out it wasnt a software issued it was hardware issue jejeje I was about to kill the thing and a friend came in with some tools so one thing let to another and we figured that the front camera(and speaker maybe) where creating a short in the system so I removed the peace (it's real simple) and h...f.. s...... it booted right up without any hassle
Hope someone that needs this tip will read it and save a lot of pain killers lol.

Locked myself out of my old Droid Bionic and now stuck in fastboot mode
I recently found my old Bionic in my nightstand drawer and wanted to see what was on it. It was locked by a pattern lock which apparently I didn't remember correctly and it's not accepting my Google login. I went to the phones menu (power and volume down buttons) but somehow I got it stuck in AP Fastboot screen. I can't get it out of that screen and if I let it boot normally then I am locked out. Is there any way to still get to the data off the phone or get it unlocked so I can see if it's even worth it?
Thanks all.

You must continue using safestrap, just install cm13 on stock slot, in safestrap's recovery (twrp)

OTA updates on unlocked bootloader 5.1
I've got a turbo that I unlocked using sunshine and put on twrp and SuperSU. Now it keeps downloading an update and I can't seem to stop it. While I can delete the downloaded file it keeps coming back and giving the full screen "update ready" prompt.
Unless I am mistaken I should not take the OTA. I tried the FOTAkill.apk route but that hasn't stopped it from downloading the update file.
What can I do at this point? It is driving me crazy. I don't really want a different ROM as I like the stock moto feature and don't want to kill camera performance.
Thanks!

Put a .bak at the end of the apk. Then reboot

Just to be clear I should put that at the end of the OTA .apk after it downloads?

No your phone already has the apk on it and by adding the .bak to the end your phone will no longer look for updates. I feel foolish for not mentioning that CF does amazing work with the stock based ROM, it's definitely worth checking out. I have had zero issues with his rom and am thankful he shares his work with us because my phone just keeps running better and better. Thank you CF!

It seems to have worked! Thank you!

anybody know how to downgrade to .44 from .49???

Unfortunately you can't.

Bootloader and root
I have been trying to find a reliable means to unlock my bootloader so i can root my droid turbo. Unfortunately i found this site after ota updates that i thought were manditory to keep my phone running smoothly. Now that i realize my noob mistake everything i have been finding seems to indicate its too late to fix anything now. my build is past the 44_44 is there a way to unlock the bootloader even a paid way would work for me as long as it will work. Im a bit reluctant to spend money on things im not possitive will work especially since unlocking bootloaders and rooting is frowned upon by some. im also worried that if i purchase something that doesnt work ill be unable to get a refund due to the nature of what i am purchasing. If anyone can offer ideas that i havnt considered to unlock my bootloader or maybe even root without it i would greatly appreciate it. even if there are some experimental things i could try id be willing to donate if the process works to accomplish what i am trying to do. thanks in advance and if there is no way to do this i understand fully.

Turbo now 3G
Please be kind, have a Droid Turbo on Page Plus, all stock, running fine for a few months with 4G. Yesterday I thought I would be really smart and do the *22890 programming. Now I have a 3G Turbo. Customer service saying they can be of no help, "I shouldn't have used the programming on my 4G device." Is there a fix to return the Turbo to 4G? My apologies if this is the wrong place for this question.

Please be kind, have a Droid Turbo on Page Plus, all stock, running fine for a few months with 4G. Yesterday I thought I would be really smart and do the *22890 programming. Now I have a 3G Turbo. Customer service saying they can be of no help, "I shouldn't have used the programming on my 4G device." Is there a fix to return the Turbo to 4G? My apologies if this is the wrong place for this question.

I don't know the answer but I don't believe the Turbo required special programming (like some older Motorola phones) to work with Pageplus .
So the issue is the on the Phone or On the sim card.
Guess I would reflash the firmware with RSD Lite, if that doesn't fix it, get a new sim card.
Another option, swap sim cards with someone else, you don't need to tell Page plus, just needs to be a nano sim compatible phone
Ether the sim car works in other phones or not, I switch devices fairly often, and have used the current sim card in 6+ devices (really have't kept track)
What system version/ build version is on the phone?

Was told by Page Plus the programming was not for a 4G device, that I turned it into a 3G device. The system version is 23.21.49.quark_verizon.verizon.en.US.vzw, and the build is SU4TL-49. Thanks for your response!

I'm sure Pageplus customer service has no idea how to flash the firmware, or what that does.
The bootloader is locked? if yes just flash the SUTL-49 firmware with RSD Lite

If the bootloader is unlocked you could try just installing the STUL-49 radio in TWRP
