To all who have put this together: thank you.
The inevitable question is how does one get rooted on 12.15.15 and what method do you need to have rooted with as a starting point for this guide? I have an insurance replacement Droid Maxx running stock 12.7.7 and cannot remember what method I rooted with for my original (now lost) Maxx which was rooted on 12.15.15.
Thanks again.

Excellent. I didnt check the links however I would recommend to imabigd, to fxz to 12.15.15 then run rockmymoto using your instructions and then continue on with mine.Do this: Here is for the Newbie, someone that doesn't understand what ADT Bundle or adb means, and has never attempted the adb process of Rooting..this is the RockMyMoto exploit procedure..
Please donate to Jcase for all his labors on this Root exploit..
This is a simplified version of preparing the Windows computer, to run the exploit from start to finished, and have a Rooted XT1080M (aka) Droid Maxx..

Ok, all. I have been following the noob guide as published, and have run into a wall with the telnetting process. I have my three windows open, all the drivers installed and as you can see in the screenshot have successfully run the adb commands for "adb push su /sdcard/" and "adb push RockMyMoto.jar /sdcard/". I also successfully run the Cydia Impactor Box command "# start telnet as system on port 2222"
In the telnet window I get strange behavior. I copied the IP address of the phone from the settings/about phone/status menu but when I try and telnet with the command "o my ip address 2222" I get a failed to connect error if my screen is locked. Once I unlock it, it connects, but then I get "Y U NO PUSH su TO /sdcard/su? Exiting..." error in the screenshot when I try and run the "dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto" command.
I am not getting any security questions when I successfully run the telnet command (unlocking the screen) and simply get a "~ $" and that is when I am entering the dalvikvm -cp /sdcard/RockMyMoto.jar RockMyMoto" command.
What am I doing wrong here? Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Sir..its been a long day..and my eyes are crossing..seems to me..a couple things to start with..go to settings..Developer options/Stay awake, place a check in the box..so your not battling with a screen turning off..and you can watch whats happening..and maybe even bump screen time up to 5 minutes or more..
Next..seems as thow, you may need to reboot your computer, and allow drivers to refresh..after that..make absolutely sure..you are keying in the correct IP address in Telnet window, with the lower case o in front and 2222 after your IP..remember to always run Impactor each time before you key in your address..Impactor will blink your screen, this is a sign the Impactor is doing its job, Also remember, to close the Telnet window after each use..anotherwords..run Impactor after you have opened a new Telnet window..then key in your IP then hit enter, a process will happen, then a sign like this $ will display..now is when you key in your commands..BUT..reboot your PC..before you make another move, seems your PC and device are failing to communicate properly..a reboot will help them to communicate again..as I said..I'm very sleepy..lol..and I'm probably overlooking something..tomorrow, if you haven't figured it out, and everyone here is busy..PM me..I will help..I will be out of town..but I will have my phone with me..maybe someone else can chime in and help you sooner.
EDIT..make absolutely sure, your computer and your device are using the same WiFi modem...Your device must be using your local WiFi..

"Furthermore it assumes that you are familiar with the process in which root was obtained for 12.15.15(Cydia,Telnet)."
I rooted using an app called MotoRoot 1.1 by jcase. Is that Cydia or Telnet?
Just a quick note, ive updated the file to V1.4 which contains several additions and clarification to the commands for simplicity. Please download the new version.
Call me oopid but where is this link?.... Thanks again! I appreciate all your hard work!

I agree with kent. Verify your on the same network. Disable any firewalls or virus protection while you run exploit. It seems you have a break in communication there

It looks like a miracle, but finally I have root. Dunno why there were some mistakes. Great guide! Love everybody who has given us such opportunity. Peace!
I did use that. Sometimes when opening an app it crashes my phone and was thinking that might be the reason. Also my alarm clock doesn't go off when I leave it on my Qi Charger overnight. Strange things. Thanks for your reply.
