Subject line. I am running Lineage 13 right now, but this is a general question. I haven't fiddled with Android Pay in a while but I want to try to get it to work. Apparently as of about 6 months ago Android Pay doesn't work on some phones with unlocked bootloaders. Is there a work around...

I was asking you to clarify what you meant by "won't boot" since that could mean multiple things, but it doesn't matter if you already sent the phone back. Glad you have the extended warranty.

I would flash the system.img for KXA21.12-L1.26.1 and then take the updates, then re-root once you get Lollipop installed. You can get the factory images from Motorola: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/recovery-images You might have to wait a day or so for...

Hey bud, when you say the phone won't boot do you mean you can't even boot into the bootloader, or do you mean the screen goes black after the boot animation? If it's the latter the same thing happened to me today and I know how to fix it.

No, I gave up and just restored the TWRP backup I had made of the stock 4.4.4 rom. With luck we won't have to wait too long for Verizon to get their act together and let the update go out.

So I finally got around to trying this out on my XT1060. I flashed the firmware for the XT1053 Lollipop version 5.1 with the radios from the most recent Kit Kat build for the XT1060. Everything works perfectly fine with no issues, and one nice thing is you can activate tethering without...

CDMA is the "3G" technology that Verizon uses, it's pretty much obsolete though... the XT1060 does have a CDMA radio, but I only use LTE. Verizon uses different bands for LTE than the other carriers though, so I know for a fact that the radios for the XT1053 won't work and I'm not going to...

I live in the USA and I have Verizon so I need working radios for Verizon LTE. I don't think the AT&T ones will work for Verizon LTE. But didn't you say that you don't live in the USA, you don't have Verizon, and you don't use LTE?

Has anybody tried flashing the firmware for XT1053 Lollipop release on the XT1060 and then flashed the Verizon radios from the 4.4.4 release? I'm getting tired of waiting, and if I remember correctly I was able to do something similar while waiting for Verizon to release the original 4.4...

Yeah, I got confused by the name of the file and I didn't realize what the previous version number was, thanks for the clarification.

I installed the .zip but in system settings it still says my system version is 212.166.3.ghost_verizon.Verizon.en.US Is anybody else seeing this? EDIT: I think I'm good, Build number is KXA21.12-L1.26-3

Thanks for the help. I wish he left the deprecated file up because if I remember correctly I was able to adapt it myself to work with the 4.4.4 update. I was able to set myself up by deleting all of the VZW apps in Root Explorer and using an Xposed module to enable native tethering. There are...

Hi y'all. I recently broke my XT1060 and I just got a replacement. Previously I had used a flashable zip to remove all of the VZW bloat and enable free tethering, but I didn't have that file backed up. Could anybody share a similar file that would work to De-VZWify my XT1060 running 4.4.4...

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like I'll have to wait for modems that support phone calls or the official release.

What steps did you follow? Did you do a factory reset, then install the zip, then flash the modems, then boot up?
