I got a Nokia X2. What should I do with it? Root, dump img,...? - X2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I just received this phone and starting to play around with it. Although we know this might be the last Android device from Microsoft, however I got to say this one brings lots of improvement from the lastest X family, such as: smooth, Android 4.3, better UX.
I did some research and find out that this phone's so new and would love to help the community to answer, as well as testing something to get it hacked.
Cheers

At this moment, there isn't much to do. You can root device, that shouldn't be a problem. As the kernel source is yet to be released, there is no option of original development. You just have to wait for developers to arrive.

I really wanna know - how?
on adb devices - blank list. fastboot- blank list. It doesn`t say - waiting for device - just blank list.

Need your help. X2 needs it: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-x2/general/wip-rooting-procedure-x2-t2824711/post54330429

Nokia X2 only has a home key and a back key, so how can u for example reach to "Settings" in WhatsApp, or to "Fast Access" in ES File Explorer? Isn't this a huge problem? Or is there a way to make up for the lost "third key" in the bar? We need this key for most apps!

The dump is already there. Check the WIP thread in General Section. It is there in the last pages.

Can an app like that help you?

What exactly did you do? I have not heard about reset loops after rooting. Could be a new bug even. Suggest taking it to Care.

Number Selector (My First App) and a flashlite app and a couple others too now lol

Ok I changed this to have a few of my first apps in it including some I thought was not worth putting in at first like a flashlight app makes you screen bright white so that you can use your phone as a mini flash lite in dark rooms, and you double click teh screen to exit right the app cause it runs in fullscreen, right now now it doesn't change your backlight level, but it still helps. also there is a number selector, you can decide a minamum number and a max number and it will pick a random number in beetweens thse when you click the button on the window, and also a test to see how fast you can tap the screen lol
Even though I had absolutely no problems and dont think it is even possible for something like this to do any damage to a phone I am not responsible for anything I just made this app because I like xda and want to help as much as I can.
btw I really would appreciate feedback
I will try to post more pics later for the new programs I forgot to take them

A few questions

Hi everyone xD
I have like three months with my g1 and would like to use a custom ROM but i have some doubts that would like to clear:
Wich is the most stable and fluid firmware for the g1 now?
Could i finally be able to send and receive files on bluetooth(i currently can just SEND, and only to some devices D?
Do i have to root it in order to install the ROM?
Do i loose my unlock if i do it?
Thanks xD
1. Search, try and find out which you like best based on the features you want.
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5992286&postcount=2
So, whatever ROM i decide to install(for example: Cyanogen´s) requires to root the phone?
Wasn't that question 3? No reason to ask twice.
hahah my bad!
Wich ROM are you using rite nao?
are you happy with it?

The rom I'm using right now includes auto-correct for spelling, I suggest you try it
I have no idea what he is using, but right now I am using OpenEclair, and I am very happy with it.
1. CyanogenMod / SuperD are probably your best bets.
2. Yes, you can send AND receive with Bluetooth.
3. Yes, you need root.
4. Again, I will refer you to this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5992286&postcount=2
Oh, and if you look at the top of your screen, under the "Welcome, YOURNAME", there is a button that says "search". If you click it, and type in words, it will give you answers.
Or if that doesn't work, there is always Google.....I know, this must be way out in left field for you, and I'm probably the first person ever in your life to tell you to Google something.
Thanks pplz

You did not read this part of that link I gave you?
All apps on your Android are signed with a cryptographic key. When it’s time to update that app, the new version must have the same digital signature as the old or it won’t overwrite. You can't update it, in other words.

Changing menu type

Hello all,
Can you help me with changing menu type to one with no all apps button. like on miui roms or iphone? I cant find it...
Sorry if this has allready been talked about here, but I tried to search with no results.
Thank you all.
There is a option under the settings menu in S7 for that option and also it has warning about that option is still experimental. So maybe in the future upgrades we can get it too..

You can use Samsung Galaxy Labs. One of the experimental options is Show all apps on Home screen.

That is not cool.Actyally for installation you don't need root,you need custom recovery.

How to install - still a question. You need to make update package which will be accepted by stock recovery. But as I know this package should contain Samsung signature.

Hey mrmazak,
Thanks for your development and the support of this community with Dirtycow.
To clarify, are you seeing any exploits that could be leveraged in order to root and it will take more time for development, or is it just out of the question?
Thanks,

Blu has changed preloader since v6.6. no access to preloader from sptf, so no flashing, no root
Thanks mrmazak,
Anytime sooner will there be root ?
No, there will not be root. The security holes have been plugged. The tools used to modify the phones have been blocked.
If you installed a recent over-the-air update, you are out of luck - no recovery, no flashing, no rooting. Period. End of story. Done.
Never accept an over-the-air update for a phone that you want to root or modify.

Wow **** blu.
Guess I'll just return it, you know, cause **** sales too!
Sorry, I am new to rooting with many of my phones and I am getting very frustrated at how many developers patch the root. I used to think Android was friendlier for root than iOS is for jailbreaking, don't think so anymore.
Is there a root friendly list of phones new you have on this forum up-to-date?
Sort of hard to buy a phone requesting from the seller to have the "right version" on it. Ex.) blu phone prior to v6.6.
Thanks.

If you have custom recovery , then yes. The dirty cow part is only needed to allow bootloader unlock. So once it's unlocked and you have recovery , should be no problem to root
Trash talk lol, nothing is impossible just that you can't do it simple!.
