The update was pushed to my phone today, don't know if its available for everybody or if its rolling out in baches, but I have the file and I'm not signed up for the soak test so I'm assuming its official.

just unzip the rar
don't know if anything is different but there it is

Were you rooted prior to the updated? Had you removed or moved any bloatware prior to the update? Just wondering if the update unroots or fails if pre-loaded software is missing.

My phone came right from Verizon with 5.6.890 and I used one-click-root and Koush's D3 boostrap and all worked fine. Even if you lose root you can re-root.

you don't have to unroot before the update but you will have to root afterwards

I rooted before the update but I didn't remove bloatware, if you did it will probably fail. you can replace your deleted bloatware with PetesMotorolaRootTools

@LRiley Thanks man, good to know. I did not delete any of the bloatware, just moved them to a sub-folder so restoring will be a piece o'cake. Will do that now because I have no idea when I'll get the update from VZW.

The MD5sum is the same as the leak from last month, meaning it hasn't been touched since before it was leaked. Also means all the same fixes and issues are present.

If you have the bootstrap, can you apply the leaked update from Verizon? Or will it fail because of verification?

After running this update, I am not able to complete the root process.

I get the following error with psouza4's one-click


Running exploit step 3 of 3 (adding su, busybox, and superuser.apk)... FAIL!

ERROR: we have root, but couldn't push busybox. Not sure why!

After the update, did you go back and make sure debugging was checked?
Also, make sure the allow for unkown sources is checked.
Setting-->applications

Just a thought.

Yes, I made sure both of those were checked. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Anybody know why step 3 might be failing, and can't push busybox? I'm hoping psouza can chime in with a suggestion. Is there an issue with this update?

I'm stuck, and this phone just isn't the same without root.

    Not sure on how to do a couple of those things, but I will do some searching and try to find out. If you get a change to give me a little more detail, that would be great.

    Thanks for the response, I appreciate you taking the time.


    No problem. I'll try to get to my computer, but it will be a few hours. Meanwhile, everything you need is in PSouza's tool in the support_files folder.

    PM me or just reply with your status and I will try to assist.

    Start by going into a command prompt and CD to the support_files folder. From there you can run ADB shell to get connected to the phone. Do you have a # prompt when you connect?

    Keep me posted!

    Hey, I'll be damned...worked like a charm!!

    I knew about the support files with psouza's tool, but just needed to figure out a few of the basic ADB commands.

    It was pretty simple once you pointed me in the right direction.
    You sir are the man...and I really appreciate your help. Thanks again.
