- Mac & Linux Instructions

Extract the .zip to any folder you like, the /Downloads/ or /Desktop/ folder should work just fine.
Open a Terminal window. (On Mac: Applications > Utilities > Terminal)
Learn your 'sudo' password. This is almost always your Admin password on a Mac computer. On Linux you should already know what this is, its yours account password if your account is an admin as well.
Type the following code into the Terminal Windows, places where it says ***DRAG HERE*** are telling you to simply drag the folder there. For example: cd ***DRAG FOLDER HERE*** then press 'Enter' after each line.
Code:
cd ***DRAG UNZIPPED UTILITY FOLDER HERE***

chmod +x ./LinuxMacUtility.sh

bash ./LinuxMacUtility.sh

You will be asked for your sudo password at least once in the Utility process, so make sure you followed the instructions to learn it.

How long should the "sending system" step take? It's the first one when I try to flash 4.1.2 and it's taking a really long time

i'm using the this on a mac and i'm getting a couple of error messages, I was wondering if someone could point me in the right direction of fixing things.

I get this error when after i enter the commands listed to start the app:


32 bit Mac System
chmod: ./fastboot.osx32: No such file or directory

I select option 1 and this error comes up

sudo: fastboot: command not found
sudo: fastboot: command not found
sudo: fastboot: command not found
sudo: fastboot: command not found
sudo: fastboot: command not found
sudo: fastboot: command not found

i'm running this on a macbook w/ a C2D. that first error makes me think this might be meant for a newer Mac. Thanks in advance guys :)

Your directory doesn't exist where it's expected - you sure you're running it from the right place?

I'm just getting "sending system" hanging forever...I tried flashing 4.1.2 stock recovery too and same thing "sending recovery"

Does the rom selected on safestrap matter? I wouldn't think so

Not sure what's going on

thanks so much dude...I finally got it to work. I have a lot of android devices and I was using a different micro usb cable. Sorry about that.

you're the man!

only question I have now is...when booting the phone, safestrap isn't coming up anymore. does that mean the partition it created is wiped as well as the space it was taking up replenished to the stock ROM?

thanks again man

Will either Option 1 or 2 allow me to update to 4.1.2 without wiping my data? Id like to update, but OTA require i put all the bloatware back. Id like to just flash 4.1.2 without having to redo my phone.

It's a data wipe. You could flash just the radio, boot image etc... Those are extracted and available on another forum. Or you could reinstall the bloat as system apps.

    It will be on http://sbf.droid-developers.org/ soon enough. I don't need to share my sources, and doing so would ensure I couldn't get them early for you folks anymore who need them :)

    Many users on DroidRzr reported bugs on 2.4 and not on 2.323. When 2.5 launches I will update this tool :)

    Use my RSD Script Generator.

    http://www.mediafire.com/download/ni0ona6q482c185/RSDScriptGenerator.jar

    Drop that in your extracted FXZ directory, run it (it's an executable java jar so java 7 or higher must be installed and configured to open jars), select the xml file from your FXZ directory, and press the generate scripts button. You'll then have FULL, KEEP DATA, and UNIVERSAL scripts. KEEP DATA is what most people need. If downgrading on an unlocked phone, UNIVERSAL is what you want.

    P.S. I'm on vacation so my replies are extremely limited this week.
