It appears that the steering wheel controls (and other potentially helpful bits like reverse detection to switch to backup camera , parking brake detection to make sure video entertainment is only available when the car is parked, illumination input to adjust the backlight automatically for...

What kind of car is it? Year, make, model and trim. (example, 2015 Honda Accord LX) Do a search with that information and steering wheel control. Several sites have good information, but I have had consistently good luck over the years on www.the12volt.com If you can't find what you're...

That's what I figured. I'm quietly watching, and I occasionally try to see if something changes on Motorola's side.

Also unable to unlock I received the 64GB version, today, and get the message from the Motorola website that my device is ineligible to be unlocked. Darn the luck, I bought it hoping for the best. Should I try again, later?

In order to get Flashfire to work, one must purchase a license. In order to purchase a license, one must be in the Flashfire app. That seems to pose a problem unless one is observant and reads Chainfire's web page about Flashfire. It worked for me. Your mileage may vary. Edited to add: The...

I was almost there. That made life a lot easier. :)

Also works on the F60 This also works on the MetroPCS version of the F60, with no modifications. I have adapted the instructions, (including giving proper credit), to work on the ZTE ZMAX (Z970), here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61242177&postcount=3300 and here...

Carrier IQ is installed on on our Z970 In a post on AF, 9h0s7 pointed out that Carrier IQ is active on our devices. http://androidforums.com/threads/carrier-iq.922016/ Big Brother is watching, but we can do something about it. The following is copied from one of my replies to that post...

I had to manually stop and delete the Kingroot and Kinguser apps, and then everything was beautiful.

No, but it is actively being poked at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/zte-zmax-z970-guide-faq-discussion-t3053066/page32

While that may be true, the purpose of this thread is to have a central repository for tips and tricks, and what works. Stating "I have tried [root method number 437] and it doesn't work." is helpful, because we can then focus our efforts in a new direction. Stating "This is never going to...

Not to mention being tagged in many of the posts--still--even after clearly washing his hands.

Or, we could simply start a new thread, specifically titled to indicate that it is about exploring root options for this device, and perhaps other ZTE devices that use a similar security scheme. That might expand our audience, a bit.

nice! I I have been looking for teardown pics, to see what is hiding in there. I wonder if there is a connection port (more likely empty pads on the circuit board, of sorts that might be able to be exploited. Perhaps, there's something like on the HTC EVO 3D where you could use a paperclip or...

That's for devices with Intel processors. It might be worth a shot, but highly doubtful.
