Evleaks Leaks AT&T Version Of Unannounced Motorola Phone, And You’ll Want To See The Model Name

BJSYkVUCcAArXT1 (1)

Intrepid leakster @evleaks has just dropped a few images of a black-boxed Motorola device that appears to be headed for AT&T. It’s worth noting that this is the first Motorola product we’ve seen badged up for an American carrier since the RAZR HD / RAZR M last summer, quite a long time ago.

BJSYkVUCcAArXT1 (1)

It’s also a phone we’ve seen before. At least, it seems to be. Vietnamese blog Tinhte leaked a device with the codename “XT912A” (XT is Moto’s typical device prefix for “DROID” branded devices), and it’s pretty clear the two are one in the same in most respects, at least based on what we see in these photos.

Dan Rosenberg: ‘I See This As The End Of An Era For Motorola Rooting And Modding’

1

When it comes to root and mod action on Motorola devices from the last couple of years, all eyes turn to brilliant Android hacker Dan Rosenberg. Since the Droid 3 was released two years ago, Rosenberg has successfully found root exploits for every Motorola device, including the D3, Bionic, RAZR, Droid 4, Xoom 2, Atrix HD, RAZR HD, and RAZR M. Add to that the fact he just released a tool that unlocks the bootloaders on the most modern Moto phones (RAZR HD, M, and Atrix HD), and it’s not hard to see why he’s such an important part of the Motorola modding community.

DROID RAZR HD Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update receives root

Earlier this week a major milestone was reached in terms of unlocking and hacking Motorola smartphones. Motorola’s encrypted bootloaders finally were cracked and it represents a first for many of their latest devices. Nothing close to this has been achieved on a Motorola device yet. Sadly the process requires a rooted device, and for many that wasn’t available until now.

main-razr-540x405

The method achieved and later released to unlock the bootloader on our precious RAZR HD, MAXX HD, RAZR M, Atrix HD and more all require a rooted device. Rooting Moto phones isn’t very easy either, and until yesterday the latest OTA update to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean was still locked down, and only 4.1.1 was rooted. This means only those who passed on the latest OTA were able to unlock their bootloader, but not anymore.

So if you accepted the OTA to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean in March for the RAZR and MAXX HD, the details released this week for rooting will have you covered. After you root your RAZR HD, then go back to this post to learn more about unlocking that bootloader.

Obviously rooting your device and unlocking the bootloader comes with a certain amount of risk. So proceed with caution. If you only want to root the latest OTA you’ll want to read up on all the details over at DroidRzr.com then enjoy that full root access. The developer responsible for all of this has recently stated he’s done with rooting and exploiting Motorola, so hopefully now that Google owns the company things ease up a bit.

Motorola unlock tool for RAZR HD, RAZR M and Atrix HD released

Motorola_Logo_From_DROID_RAZR_MAXX_HD_TA

Yesterday, the bootloader was unlocked on some major Motorola phones by Dan Rosenberg; the RAZR (MAXX) HD, RAZR M, and the Atrix HD. Motorola devices are notoriously difficult to unlock, so that was a pretty big deal. Today, that unlock tool was released to users. As a warning, it does void your warranty, and the tool cannot relock the bootloader, only unlock it. Motorola also will probably fix the exploit used in a future software update, so if you want to unlock your device, it’s best to do it sooner rather than later.

To get started, you’ll simply have to have a rooted, supported device, then follow the instructions below, and remember that as of right now, this is irreversible.

Three final warnings before you make your decision:

  • You understand that using this tool will permanently, irreversibly void your device’s warranty.
  • You understand that it may not be possible to “relock” your device’s bootloader after unlocking using this tool. A side effect of this is that if you lose your device and you are not using disk encryption, a malicious party who acquires your phone may be able to extract all personal data from the device regardless of any lock screen.
  • You agree that I am in no way responsible for any damage to your device as a result of using this tool.

Now, for the actual instructions. You’ll need to download the tool here before you get started.

  1. Extract the entire contents of the zip file.
  2. If you are using Windows, ensure you have installed the latest Motorola USB drivers available for your phone.
  3. Ensure your device has been rooted and you have a working installation of “su”.
  4. Ensure USB Debugging mode is enabled on your device.
  5. If you are using Windows, navigate to the extracted directory and execute “run.bat”. If you are using Linux or OS X, navigate to the extracted directory in a terminal and execute “./run.sh”.

There’s also a disclaimer that this will not work on any OMAP Motorola phones, such as the Droid Bionic or original RAZR. So if you were thinking about being adventurous, it’s probably not a good idea this time.

Dan Rosenberg Releases Bootloader Unlock Tool For Motorola DROID RAZR HD / MAXX HD, RAZR M, And Atrix HD

new-razr-backs

If you own a RAZR HD, RAZR MAXX HD, RAZR M, or Atrix HD, and you’ve been waiting for the day when sweet bootloader-unlocking goodness arrives, wait no more: Dan Rosenberg has come to the rescue yet again.

Dan just published a tool that will allow you to unlock any of the above-mentioned Moto devices, assuming you have root access on your phone. Just have a working superuser app on your device, download the tool, connect to your PC with USB debugging enabled, and run the included script. From there, follow the instructions.

There are a few catches. First, you must be rooted – some 4.1.2 builds for the supported devices do not yet have a working root method.

DROID RAZR HD and MAXX HD update rolling out now with camera fixes

Today Verizon Wireless is pushing out yet another update for their highly popular Motorola DROID RAZR HD and bigger brother MAXX HD smartphones. We first confirmed the update at the tail end of last week, and today it is officially hitting smartphones around the US. Prepare to accept the update and get tons of improvements across the board.

main-razr-540x405

This isn’t Android 4.2.2, but since the RAZR HD was already updated to Jelly Bean instead they’ve opted to just fix a few software and audio issues, improve camera performance, and hopefully make connectivity even better. According to the details released by Verizon last week, that’s exactly what we’ll be getting.

The update will bring the RAZR HD and MAXX HD to version 9.16.6 and will run roughly 96MB in size. A WiFi connection is recommended. Verizon states a specific data roaming issue has been fixed, USB connection/deconnect has been improved drastically, and WiFi has even been improved today. Lastly Verizon and Moto confirm the update improves the camera touch-to-focus as well as low light performance.

That’s certainly good news. We all know the camera hasn’t been one of Motorola’s strong points on their smartphones. Again the update is around 96MB in size and you should be getting it anytime now. Feel free to check for updates yourself in settings > about phone > check for updates and enjoy the latest and greatest.

Deal Alert: Motorola Droid Razr HD Drops To $0.01 On Amazon Wireless For New Accounts

ad

In January, we saw Motorola’s Droid Razr HD drop to just a penny on Amazon for customers looking to upgrade their old devices. Sadly, the deal didn’t extend to new customers (though at $19.99, not much complaining could be done).

If you were hoping to hop onto the big red network with the Razr HD for a more enticing price, Amazon’s got your deal – the phone is now just a penny for new customers (and additional lines). Upgrades on the other hand will cost customers $89.99, strangely enough.

Though the Razr HD launched last fall, its specs still hold up against the competition.

It’s a pretty good deal either way, but it’s particularly killer for existing Verizon customers.

  • CPU: 1.5GHz dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4
  • OS: Android 4.1.x
  • Display: 4.7″ Super AMOLED HD (1280×720)

Verizon Wireless holiday sale brings deals on several Android handsets

Verizon Wireless seems to have kicked off their latest holiday sale. The sale includes discounts on a handful of Android smartphones as well as the option to score a free Droid RAZR in cranberry. Well, that is if cranberry colored smartphones are your thing.

verizon-wireless-logo

Anyway, in terms of the discounted handsets. This list includes the Droid Incredible 4G LTE, Droid RAZR M, RAZR HD and the RAZR MAXX HD as well as the LG Lucid and the Pantech Marauder. Those last two, the Lucid and the Marauder are both free on a two-year agreement. And in terms of the discounts on those, this means a $20 savings on the Lucid and a $50 savings on the Marauder.

Moving back to the Droid branded handsets. Beginning first with the Incredible 4G LTE and the RAZR M, these are both $49.99 on a two-year agreement which means a $50 savings on both. The RAZR HD is $149.99 (down from $199.99) and the RAZR MAXX HD is $249.99 (down from $299.99). Of course, similar to the others, the RAZR HD and the RAZR MAXX HD both assume a two-year agreement.

Finally, the deal on the cranberry Droid RAZR. This handset will be free for those who are also buying any Motorola Droid RAZR. All said and done, these are some decent discounts, however we suspect some shopping around may score you even lower prices. Regardless of where you choose to shop though, if you are looking for advice on any of these handsets — make sure to check our reviews.
