I like to tinker with stuff and this is also a kind of semi-long, maybe
even funny story.
I am asked quite often to help people with Android problems so I fool
around with phones, usually theirs not mine. I did get to like Motorola
enough to buy a Moto G and use it. A couple of months ago I was looking
through ebay and saw an ad for an Unlocked Moto X and assuming they meant
carrier unlocked, I ordered it.
When it arrived after the estimated delivery date, I charged it and
inserted my sim and no joy, it was locked to Verizon. I opened a trouble
ticket and tried to get the seller to provide me with an unlock code but
they couldn't. I guess because there isn't one. Ebay has refunded me and I
guess the seller settled with them for false advertising because I am now
in possession of a semi-borked Moto XT1060. (Looking at CRdroid at this
point)
I say semi-borked because after I rebooted without the sim, all sorts of
gremlins showed up. Most especially what I believe is a Verizon "ghost"
carrier induced BSOD. After a couple of intermittent hours of booting and
fuzzing, I got enough of a screen to be able to navigate to settings,
enable developer mode and force GPU rendering and disable HW overlays. Now
I can actually use the thing on wifi. It still takes a lot of keypresses
and screen taps to fuzz the thing on, but once I got the screen on, I was
able to generate a bug report and mail it to myself.
It also sent me a screen-shot of the screen I couldn't see at the time. At
first foray I was operating in the very narrow space at the top of the
screen, which I kept alive by dragging my finger down from the top and
pressing the power button repeatedly to force a redraw of the screen.
I now know, after getting the report, my phone thinks it is 10.24PM, Monday
February 13th. Actually it looks like the bloatware deliberatly overheats
the cpu and so far, as long as I keep the phone in the cold space between
my windows, it seems to function almost normally, except it won't accept
the sim card.
So it seems the boot loader is locked at NAND: 0x30BE. Has anyone on the
list had success in flashing an open source boot loader to a Motorola
device?
I've looked around a bit and the ghost rom is available but I can't seem to
find a comparable stock motorola rom for this model.
Any advice is appreciated and here's a couple hundred lines of debug code
for anyone who is interested.
Thanks in advance
Russell
