Yes, only problem is it looks like the new ones are shipping from VZW with 4.4 installed. Wife bought her's a week ago and it was already on KK. If you want root now, look for a seller that can guarantee 4.2.2 - otherwise you'll be waiting for a 4.4 exploit to surface. Honestly, aside from...

ALL CREDIT FOR THE EXPLOIT GOES TO JCASE, AND TO NWKENT FOR HIS SIMPLIFIED BUNDLE. I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR PHONE OR ANY DAMAGE INCURRED FROM APPLYING THIS. READ ALL DIRECTIONS UNTIL YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS As previously posted here for 4.2.2...

Yes, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2658277. The bundle is a very easy walk through

I have not used hers in the car but I did notice that tonight vs tv noise, while mine still on 4.2.2 did not have the same recognition issue. As I tested it last night, the room was quiet and her's activated better. In the noise tonight, it seemed 4.2.2 can filter out background noise better.

For those interested in the mini, it appears the 4.2.2 is at an end from Verizon. My wife's arrived today with 4.4. On a plus, after playing with her phone, I see some improvements in the 4.4 KK over 4.2.2-12.15.15. I am thinking of leaving JB behind and trying the next push to 4.4 root this...

From all my reading here, NWKENT's package of JCASE's exploit is the cleanest and simplest to follow to date! Use the link and follow the included directions.

I believe write protection is off - android noob here so maybe someone more knowledgeable can post on it. What I do know is the next big step is to get Titanium Pro so you can freeze the 2 OTA (Over the Air) update programs so you don't accidentally get upgraded to 4.4 and loose root. According...

Congrats! Take the part 1 download on NWKENT's link (http://waynekent.com/page18.html) - it has all files needed including the FXZ for 12.15.15. Yes, flash 1st to 12.15.15 and then follow NWKENT's directions - a very clean step-by-step. This is what I used for confirmation and worked seamless...

As the Ultra section seems to also include the Droid Mini, I thought it best to post here. ALL CREDIT FOR THE EXPLOIT GOES TO JCASE, AND TO NWKENT FOR HIS SIMPLIFIED BUNDLE. I TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR PHONE OR ANY DAMAGE INCURRED FROM APPLYING THIS. READ ALL DIRECTIONS UNTIL YOU FULLY...

JB is only going as high as 4.2.2-12.15.15. The next upgrade to 4.4 is KK. If you make the jump to 4.4, future updates will be KK. So I believe NWKENT is suggesting that you play with 4.2.2-12.15.15 for a while instead of heading directly to KK on 4.4.

I am still on 4.2.2 and I do not see this problem - and I have plugged in to both my comp and the wall adapter. I doubt this helps your problem but I can at least confirm that I'm not seeing it.

The thread here correct? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2616104 If I understand that thread correctly, you must be rooted 1st on 4.2.2 before doing that method. If you have done this with the Mini, you used JCase's updated rooting method found here...

The info can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50358542&postcount=752 Being new to the forum, I'm not able to post in this section and inquire.

Droid Mini arrived from VZW with 4.2.2 on 2/12
