Build dates are Tuesday July 3rd 2012. Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4. For the 8.2 and 10.1 Wi-Fi AND 8.2 and 10.1 LTE models.
WARNING: If you are on a Wi-Fi only Xyboard of any size, there are no known fastboot files for you. Meaning if there is a newer leak for ICS or the official ICS 4.0.4 for Xyboard Wi-Fi only is a higher version number, you are STUCK on this ICS unless fastboot files come out.
WARNING 2: If you are on ANY model of Xyboard, once ICS installs there is no going back to Honeycomb. Ever. Ever. Ever.
Now that warnings are out of the way... here are my install instructions adapted from andlaw's Sideload ICS thread on droidrzr.com:
Be on STOCK Xyboard latest Honeycomb update. No frozen apps. No custom recoveries, etc.
Install instructions are using ES File Explorer and Rom Manager (free) from the Play Store download these and be rooted on stock latest honeycomb.
open rom manager free, hit OK, now press the home button.
open es file explorer, press YES, press menu, open settings, scroll down to Path settings and under Root settings: Enable
Up to Root (path settings)
Root Explorer (root settings)
Mount File System (root settings)
"DOWNLOAD THE ICS UPDATE ZIP AND PLACE INTO YOUR PHONES /CACHE DIRECTORY (not /system/cache, but in the root of the phone ~/cache/)"
open ES FILE EXPLORER, locate your /cache directory and then select the Blur_Version.___.___.___.MZ6__.______.__.en.USzip (depending on your version of Xyboard and ICS leak)
(now choose Open With ROM MANAGER)
phone will restart, and begin installation of the ICS leak (takes 10-15minutes)
phone restarts, boot animation begins, Android is upgrading :: Profit success!! Celebrate!!!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now onto rooting:
Connect USB to Xyboard and the Windows PC. Install the Motorola USB Drivers 5.7 or higher (found by an easy google search if you do not have these already installed).
On the notification menu set the USB Mode to MTP mode or Camera mode (basically anything besides USB Mass Storage)
Under Settings > Developer Options > Hit the "Enable USB Debugging" selection.
Run this after extracted the zip file: http://goo.im/apps/mattlgroff/DroidRazrRoot404.zip

Note from a nice user:
Hey man.. I'm HussX on other forums.. I don't have enough posts here yet to post in dev forums, but I have something you may want to edit in/sticky. If someone recovers their tab with the fastboot files, the cache size may show it doesn't have enough space to copy over the ICS leak. To fix it, they need to boot into recovery, wipe/format the cache, then reboot. It will then show up the right size and allow them to copy the file over to update. Thanks, dude.

Sense it more likely to get a lot of questions here, I'll ask
You say no fast boot files for the WiFi only model,
Do you know something that we don't, are there files for the droid xyboard?
Are you hording the fast boot files for the droid xyboard? Lol

I am hording nothing lol.
They are on mod2extreme.com I believe the site is, found by a google search or three.
I am uploading utilities (similar to my Droid Razr Utility) for the 8.2" LTE and the 10.1" LTE Xyboards for pre-paring sideload of these leaks and unbricking them, which include the FB files.

i had no idea the official fastboot files were out...
theres like 0 info on that site, do you know if those are official fastboot files?
i ask simply cause if they are just imgs someone pulled off the tab itself they will not contain the moto sig and would fail to flash.

Well I'm ready to jump on this... But uuuh... I literally JUST got my Xyboard back from Motorola lol
Any precautions I need to do before jumping into this? lol
And PS Last I checked those Fastboot files on Mod2Extreme, they were dead, I tried downloading them and they didn't work - could've saved me shipping my tablet to Moto!
Update: Installing... Engineer Android man is working!! Here's hoping :-D
Update 2: Success, ICS is SWEET!! Video is up on the Xoom General board!

First of all great job Matt...after all the neglect, I still want an 8.2 Xyboard. Perfect size IMHO.
Maybe now that an ICS leak is out and it sounds like this one is very stable, more development will get going for you Xyboard/Xoom2 guys.
Congrats!

This will not work with a german Vodafone 10.1 WiFi+3G device, am I right?
Thanks for the screenshots and the video, nice to see this progress.

Most likely not.
MZ616 the one you have doesn't have LTE(or 4g network) like MZ617.
You could brick it when the rom boots and sees no 4g hardware.

Well this looks cool for the xyboard! I kinda like the icons used in the settings too and those home actions as well. And with those new, smaller ics versions of the xyboard's soft keys may possibly make mine obsolete :silly: ...
By extracting some images from some system files from a xyboard, I was able to get the softkeys of the honeycomb xyboard and recolor them. Then I made them ICS-ready. looks brighter in real life... Now the xyboard actually has ICS softkeys!
Anyways great guide for helping the xyboard catch up a bit. It's only unfortunate because JB is coming out for the OG Xoom not to long from now. Nonetheless, this is a great leap for the xyboard! And like others have said, I hope this puts more fuel back into xyboard/xoom2 development!

Anyone tested this on the EU/UK Wifi only 8.2"? I'm wondering if it will work, it should practically be the same device as the US device; unlike the 3G vs LTE versions.

I'm running the UK 10 Xoom 2. But I'm going to wait for the official OTA or the could be a leak coming from Europe closer it comes to our time.

Let me know if you pull the trigger. I have the UK Xoom 2 8.2" as well. I'm considering flashing this leak but I don't want to be the first to do it lol.

[ROM] (4/26/12) Magnolia X 1.0 |1.28.707.10|Stable, Simple, Smooth|

Magnolia X 1.0 Initial Release (4/26/2012)
I have paused development of this ROm while I work on my own tweaks app, a skin and CM style notification toggle. I will be back up in a week or so. Please feel fre to try the ROM, below, but just be aware it is pretty bare-bones right now. It is still very smooth, snappy and stable, however.
This is the initial release of my One X ROM. My focus is on stable, smooth and simple ROMs - the kind I use myself on a daily basis. If you like flashy, super tweaked ROMs, this may not be for you. This is just an initial base ROM that I will be building from, as I get more into the device and possibilities for modding. There is MUCH more to come, including CM-Style Notification Toggles (j4n87 beat me to quick settings...) and my full matte Rosie theme, which HTC seems to have partially taken for sense 4.0... (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16944397&postcount=1)
If you like the ROM, please hit the thanks button...!

FEATURES
Based on Latest OTA update for Asia WWE 1.28.707.10;
Unsecured stock kernel with edits for init.d, nano text editing, etc;
Tegra3 power mngmt fixed and full GPU rendering, courtesy of the great mike1986;
All bloatware and extraneous images, etc. removed;
My own blend of init.d scripts (combined into one script) for stable and smooth performance;
Semi-transparent notifications bar (app drawer to come once m10 tools done);
Recent apps key remapped to settings, long press home key for recent apps (this does NOT have the volume key media mod, as I can't stand it);
Simple extended power menu mod, just has the additional reboot functions (NOT part of a tweaks program);
All widgets & app shortcuts, except the weather clock, removed from home screens on first boot so you don't have to waste time removing them...
PNGs in main graphics apks (com.htc.resources, framework-res, Rosie, etc.) optimized;
More I can't remember...
Known Issues
After first boot graphics on notifications bar gimped, this goes away after another reboot;
All gapps may not be perfectly up-to-date...;
Installation Instructions
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!!!
It is best, but not absolutely necessary, to have the latest 1.28.707.10 firmware on your device. If you already have the latest firmware, ignore the following. If you don't, do this:
- re-lock your bootloader (reboot to fastboot and type "fastboot oem lock" in terminal/command prompt),
- flash the 1.26.707.2 RUU (here),
- install the OTA update when you are prompted to,
- unlock bootloader at htcdev.com,
- flash CWM recovery (see this forum for the thread), and you are set to go...
Flash the boot.img linked to below by placing the "boot.img" in the same folder as your fastboot file, booting into fastboot and then typing "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (in OS X, you can place the boot.img in your home folder);
No need to wipe anything as flashing this ROM will wipe everything for you, including data --- I REPEAT, FLASHING THIS ROM WILL WIPE EVERYTHING, INCLUDING YOUR DATA!!! This will NOT happen in future versions (although I always suggest a full wipe before flashing);
Flash the ROM in CWM recovery;
Let things settle down, sync, etc.;
Enjoy, and post feedback, suggestions in the thread....

Oh, and I see no lag in scrolling, although I think we really need to flatten the 3D effect some. I know it's supposed to be better than 3.5, but I am getting seasick. I have integrated the 3.5 "ultrasmooth" mod into it (my test rom, not this release), but HTC changed the code where the "smooth" part of the mod goes, so it's not quite there. I am still trying to figure out how it all works in sense 4.0...

Yes, that is what I mean. Serial numbers that start with SH23. However, I especially mean those who have the 1.2x.707.x firmware, which, I understand, is quite a lot of people...
No screen flicker issues with light gray, but I have noticed it when you are using the still camera outside and move around...pictures still fine, but kind of annoying.

Is firmware the build number? My first HTC device haha....have had samsung for like my past 3 androids. All the Galaxy basically.
Im running ARHD and im guessing my build number/RUU is 1.28.401.9, is that firmware? I'll probably do a backup and try out your ROM later today.

Firmware is different. Generally an RUU or OTA update will have a separate package that installs firmware, which is basically what makes your hardware work (this is simplifying a great deal), while the ROM, through the kernel, is the software that works with the firmware/hardware. So, for instance, a firmware package might change your radio, while a ROM will not. I have run ROMs meant for the EU firmware on my phone just fine...I have the dreaded "No CID" version, so I can't switch firmware to the EU version.
Hope this helps.

[ROM]CM7 Kangs - Latest 2012\08\27

Sorry for the long delay. I inally have everything sorted out and the temperatures finally cooled down enough that the random brownouts have stopped. Lots of new things in this release. I suck with changelogs and the way I built this rom makes it hard to know everything that's changed. I rescripted Maniac103's Defy repo for the Bravo and am now using that as my base. Before I was updating a cloned Quarx CM7 repo with cherrypicks from Maniac's and FuZZ's Defy repos..
Some new features include
Bootmenu Pin Protection
Wifi Calling (untested)
SmartassV2 replaces Smartass, conigure it with smartass's settings in the bootmenu
Voice Commands
More Tablet Mode Features, you'll see them
New FM Radio
Nuance Bluetooth Voice Dialer

Install Instructions When Coming From Other Roms
-Root, Enable Non Market Apps, Install Defy 2nd-init (Search Forum For More Help)
-Reboot into Recovery
-Select Wipe Data\Factory Reset
-Select Install Zip from SDCard
-Find and Select the Rom you just downloaded
-Flash It
-Select Install Zip from SDCard
-Find and Select Gingerbread Gapps
-Flash It
-Reboot:victory:
Updating From A Previous Kang Instructions
-Reboot into Recovery
-Select Install Zip from SDCard
-Find and Select the Rom you just downloaded
-Flash It
-Reboot:victory:
Wiping Cache and Wiping Dalvic Cache isn't necessary since I added those commands to the installer script. Adding those commands makes updating simpler, less prone to errors, and less presses of the volume and power buttons.
I need to look in touch recovery and touch bootmenu.

NOTES & BUGS:
I've sometimes had an issue where my pc won't connect to adb since the phone won't give permission. It usually only occurs after the first 2 or 3 boots then magically fixes itself. I've also had usb data tethering fix the adb problem. If you don't use adb on your pc, then this isn't even an issue for you.

The attachment is for josuearisty -- no one else needs to download it or use it -- this was just a quick place to upload it for him
CM7 Mods
Just a couple of mods I use with CM7.
Bravia Engine - Sony Image PP engine for sharper images.
Beats Audio - Sony Audio engine with improved bass and treble -- can harm inferior and crappy headphones and speakers (Trust Me).
All the zips are flashable in recovery.
Credits for the zips go to their original makers, which I can't remember since I downloaded them a few months ago and can't find the threads I found them in (somewhere here at xda).
Skeevy your rom is lightning fast! Thanks so much! Thanks for beats audio and bravia zips too!

I use ES file explorer, but basically I use any file manager with root access.
I've been using this one for a few days and haven't found any bugs. Pretty sure this is the most stable rom I've had on my phone.
Another thinh I've noticed is I can't tell if the bravia engine is working. I know it is supposed to produce clearer images, but I don't notice a difference. Oh well, this phone doesn't have a fantastical camera anyway.

I was just thinking of swapping it out with Apoonet's Miui File Explorer -- Free, Root, Advanced Features, Auto-Updates itself, No Crappy Permissions.
Glad to here it works great for more than myself.
The only way I could tell if Bravia was working was I took picture of my dog with the Bravo's camera and dl'd a HD image, started at each of them for minutes on end each, flashed bravia, stared again. They did improve, but not by much and I doubt anyone would notice the difference unless you did the stare test like I did.
thanks skeevy

I have no preference in explorer so whatever you put that is not stock I'll gladly use. Although I can't speak for everyone else.
I flashed the latest cm10 just to try it out, but it's still early and I noticed quite a few bugs. I'll probably be sticking with your kang(s) for a while.

Hi. Im a newbie at all this installing rom stuff. I am trying to install this rom, but omited to download and place the gingerbread gaaps on my sd card before the process...
so now I am stuck in this step
-Find and Select Gingerbread Gapps
-Flash It
-Reboot
Should I turn it off and put the gaaps in there, and then restart it? Please help!
Just as a fallow up the way I solved this issue thanks to other forum members help was: turn off my phone, and install the gaaps to the sd card, to unzip them later.
PC Crashed
Not gonna be a CM7 this week, or anything else for that matter. My pc went down Thursday and I finally had the time today to get it back up and running. Still have to finish configuring everything how I like it, install all the build requirements, sync all my repos again (takes a while), and much more. My biggest problem is I might lose a lot of my Android stuff on my old encrypted home folder. Need to look into accessing an encrypted home folder when you don't have the password anymore. Like a dumbass, I stored it in my Documents folder....instead of anywhere on one of my other 3 hard drives.
I'll look into the baseband issue. I think I just need to add in the missing folders and files under /etc/motorola that the new baseband switcher uses.
Maniac had quite a few CM7 updates last week, and that's always good.
Hopefully I'll be back in business by Monday.
//If you're wanting to try out Linux, I gotta recommend Mint 13 Xfce to ya. The install is painless and the system's ran good and stable so far. One of my best Linux experiences.

Just accessed my old encrypted home, copying all my files to another drive. Then I'm gonna format it and make it my android partition. Should be back in the game soon.
I'll make jellybean roms as soon as I can get it to start compiling....especially since Salad Bar, Paranoid Android, and other cool mods are switching to jb. CM7's gonna come first, but I'll get to jb during the next week.

Woop, recovered all my Android files. I'm so glad I didn't lose all of it. I'd of had suicide level depression if I didn't. Especially since I had to look long and hard for the right tools to do the job (that's what she said). Time to format my old system partiton with a 20 gb recovery partition with tons of recovery tools and another partition for android development.
Then its time to set up my build environment. That'll take a while. The sdk alone is about a 1 hr ordeal, the CM7 sync is anther 1.5-2 hrs, CM9 is about a 45 min sync, the app install for everything is another 30 mins. And all those times are in a perfect world with maxed out dl speeds.
About done with all my sysyem themeing. I prefer a black desktop since its much easier staring at a dark 42" screen over a bright one for hours on end, and its eaisre to read. See the screenshot to see what I'm talking about
Also gonna look into adding aroma to the CM7 Kangs. I thought about making a lightweight rom with update zips for full CM, but Aroma will let us choose what system apps you don't want, allow easy modding and tweaks. If done right, it'll give the Kangs full White Rabbit customization without me having to port WR.

THanks... will do... just to let you know this second phone has always given me some sort of problem.... I had trouble when I rooted it because, the enable non market app would never stay that way. When I first enabled non market apps with superoneclick I could install no market apps. But after some time when by when I tried to install a non market app it kept telling me that I couldn't so I had to enable non market apps again. I thought that was weird, because device number 1 never gave me those issues. Anyway, on device number 1 everything from kangs cm7 worked...
As a followup to this problem, I tried connecting to Google on another wifi hotspot and it worked... I guess the settings of my IP are somehow incorrect at home, does anyone have any idea on what the correct settings should be... I can connect to Google at home once Im signed in from another IP.
Just wondering if this could be due to a CM7 issue because It never happened when my phone was in stock rom.
Also... I cannot purchase apps when connected to the wifi at home... I have to go somewhere else...

[ROM]Optimus Z based on Stock Jelly Bean {Rooted+Debloat+Extras}[FLASHABLE]

Hey All,
Houstonn and I have been working on a stock release of JB that can be flashed through CWM or TWRP but we decided to throw a taste of the Sony Xperia Z into it. The ROM runs fast, smooth and looks fantastic. This build supports the Canadian variations of the Optimus G and the AT&T variation for the US with external SD support. As the title states, this ROM is clean of most carrier and OEM specific applications, however; there will be a few more to come out in subsequent updates! Please follow below for further details and updates! ​

Re: [ROM]StockJB with a taste of Xperia Z {Rooted+Debloat+Extras}[FLASHABLE]
I have been running custom Roms from day one. I decided to installed the official jb update to see how it felt. I then decided I wanted to go back to a custom Rom. I kdzed to stock ics rooted and freegeed. Everytime I ran feegee then rebooted the LG logo would flash on the display and the phone would freeze. With having installed the official jb update do you think it may have modified some firmware that would affect freegee. I did notice something unusual. When the phone reboots after running freegee it starts to boot then quickly shuts of and starts again. This is the first time I have seen this glitch.

I would suggest you see Shelnutt2 on irc he will help you with that.. you might need a new clean misc partition.. and he has that. I've provided him with an E973 misc and he has made sure it's been cleaned up so that you shouldn't have those problems.. it's either that or you might need his other freegee unlock for special phones.. I would contact him as he would have all the info you would need.
Great idea for a rom.
And with houstonn being invloved, it's got to be great!!

You can try to PM him but quickest would be IRC - http://webchat.freenode.net/ the channel is #lg-optimus-g
Shorelinedroid is working on aroma script where you'll have the options to choose what you would prefer to install as well as kernel so that E975 should have working camera..
Until that is done.. I'll make a flashable zip for att users to flash for their apn and their build.prop and fastdormancy has already been applied into the rom for the att settings. i'll add whatever extra if I can think of.
Looks like a nice rom. Will give it a try. Great to see more roms for this great phone. Thanks ShorelineDroid and houstonn
I have ICS, using houstons debloated ICS rom, freegeed and unlocked. Installing this rom overtop now.
I have stuck with ICS because all of the JB ports have had a network routing bug which prevented me from creating a hotspot. There was an obscure bug that affected the routing for rare customers like me that do not have a regular data plan, only UMB (web browsing only).
Will I need to flash the JB modem firmware after?

You can definitely flash the updated JB modem specific to your carrier after flashing this ROM. Take a look to the second post on this thread for a link to stock JB modem's from Houstonn

hey gunnyman.. you'll have to use the proper apn-conf file I sent to shorelinedroid. it flashes the proper build.prop plus proper apn for att users. I've also compiled a new stock jb kernel and sent to him.. but for now.. here's the zip.. it'll flash all 3 kernel + apn + build.prop

I flashed the rom successfully on my E971 Rogers. Worked great out of the box except I had to add my APN, speakout.
I am able to tether to my speakout UMB data
I did not flash the modem, would there be any benefit for doing that or is it something I will need to do manually in the future anyways?
One very cool thing happened after I flashed the rom, I was able to get data from somewhere new, I think it was from Rogers. Odd, because I do not have a Rogers sim, I use speakout which piggybacks on the Rogers network. I went up from 5mbs on speakout to 10mbs on Rogers! However, I was not able to tether so the Rogers data wasnt useful for me.
After flashing this rom over ICS stock, I cannot get into recovery mode anymore. Just fastboot.
UPDATE: You can get into fastboot by installing the free version on Rom Manager, it has an option for booting to recovery
Just flashed it. Is it just me, or did anyone else see a battery life improvement over the Korean Leak?
Question: I see in the screenshots that you have the Sony messaging app. The ROM doesn't have the stock LG or Sony Messaging when I installed it, do you plan on integrating any other messaging app than the stock messaging? The one that the ROM comes with doesn't have any popup notification, so I was hoping you would put another one in.

I think that is the icon pack, not the sony messaging app. That being sad you can install the CM10 one probably.

[Jailbreak]Take Note Verizon - Root/Jailbreak/Recovery

Update: this will not work on the recent firmware updates.
Hey, you can't jailbreak an Android.. yeah, i know, but "Jailbreak" is a protected act under the USA DMCA Exemption of 2012 and "Unlocking" is illegal without carrier permission. There will be no misunderstandings here.
WARNING:
This is not a normal bootloader unlock. This is even higher. It's an IROM unlock. This device went from the most secure Galaxy Note 10.1 to the least secure. After performing the technique in this thread your device will allow you to flash a Justin Beiber MP3 over your bootloaders (that means a hard brick). BE VERY CAREFUL and never flash with Odin or Heimdall unless you're absolutely sure it is intended for a SCH-I925. Odin or Heimdall can easily brick your device.
Introduction
CASUAL will guide you through the process of unlocking your bootloader using exploits developed by Lee Harrison. It works on Windows, Linux, and Mac. Put your device into “Developer Mode>USB Debugging”. Click the do it button. Any problems will be addressed with updates. See the About CASUAL section below.
Overview
You are expected to be STOCK.... Stock anything, but stock. This will install a stock kernel and that may affect non-stock roms. You will need to download and execute the CASUAL application below. Make sure you're connected to the internet. Then click the Do It! button. You need Java. Do you have Java?.
Windows 32/64 Users: CASUAL will put your device into Download Mode. It will automatically flash everything. If drivers are required, jrloper's CADI (CASUAL Automated Driver installer) will handle it. Make sure you're connected to the internet.
Linux 32/64/raspberry pi Users There may be a permission escalation in order to install heimdall, either way sit back and relax. CASUAL automates the entire process.
Please run the following in a terminal first:
Mac Users: Mac works easierr than any other system at the time of this release on 32bit systems. Please report problems.
Download
Take Note Verizon CASUAL(R478b) CASUAL is used to automate the process. The exploit was developed by Elite Recognized Developer Ralekdev and packaged by AdamOutler. To run CASUAL you need Java. Do you have Java?
Note: Please don't mirror this file. Link to this thread for download. d-h.st is a fast server. If I find people mirroring old versions of CASUAL, i will throw the killswitch and their browser will bring them back here to download the new one so they end up downloading it twice, otherwise I have to support multiple versions.
Videos
Demonstration on Linux. It is roughlty the same on Windows and Mac, but if anyone wants to make a video I will put it here.
About CASUAL
CASUAL stands for Cross-platform ADB Scripting, Univeral Android Loader. CASUAL jar files are a wrapper for the CASUAL scripting language. CASUAL allows rapid and accurate deployment of hacks and exploits. CASUAL is an Open Format, meaning, you can find out as much as you need to about how it works because they're easily taken apart and modified with WinZip. CASUAL is also secure. At any time, if a serious problem is detected with any script, the kill-switch will be flipped and you will be brought to a support page (most likely here) so you can download the latest version. Otherwise for minor corrections, new CASUAL scripts can be deployed remotely.
Here's a picture of CASUAL and a Verizon GNote10.1 running Team Win Recovery

This unlock was basically identical to the second Galaxy Note 2 unlock except I had to add a few more tweaks because we're shoving a modified N8010 bootloader onto the i925.
great work guys as usual! you guys never cease to amaze me
Does this install the same TWRP version as Dees-Troy is working on in this forum? Just curious because that one is pretty rough with touch issues and it would be great to have a more functional one. I have the 8013...

CASUAL will let you root, but it won't install files that will damage your device. Even if it would, it's a bad idea. This is an IROM unlock, intended for Verizon devices only. IROM unlock means you can flash anything you want including files that destory your device.
You don't need this if you can flash custom kernels and ROMs. We have taken down all defenses here. If the U.S. Cellular version is locked down and you cant flash kernels/ROMs without it, I can release a new, updated version.

Thanks Sir. The U.S. Cellular version is locked down like the Verizon version as far as I can tell. Since the US Carriers decided to do the same crap with the bootloaders. I have root using framaroot but I'm unable to install a recovery or flash a kernel.

Hit me up on an email with the output of terminal emulator command "cat /system/build.prop"
Update: rebooted windows 8 and the install went through fine.
Adam,
So here is what I am seeing, see the pictures attached
Alright guys. I'm uploading two new packages....
The first one is the latest copy of the Take Note Verizon jailbreak. It includes a modified Recovery by Dees_Troy. Our Note 10.1's are different than the other ones.
Differences: The partition structure is totally different. The kernels are totally different. This means you will soft-brick your device by flashing anything in these forums involving a recovery or a kernel other than this one. That being said..... It may be a good idea to get a separate forum. If you are interested, please start a *NEW THREAD* in General forums listing all the i925 specific threads which could be moved.
Alright. For the second part, I'm uploading a Rooted back-to-stock which I packaged from my own device before unlocking it and flashing stuff. Here's the technique used. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082951 . This file is large so it will be a while before it's uploaded. The files included are basically everything needed to safely get back from a custom ROM and be rooted stock again.
Files included: boot.img, hidden.img, modem.bin, param.bin, recovery.img, system.img
We don't have a way to remove the modified system status currently. There is no completely back to stock.

Alright guys. I'm uploading two new packages....
The first one is the latest copy of the Take Note Verizon jailbreak. It includes a modified Recovery by Dees_Troy. Our Note 10.1's are different than the other ones.
Differences: The partition structure is totally different. The kernels are totally different. This means you will soft-brick your device by flashing anything in these forums involving a recovery or a kernel other than this one. That being said..... It may be a good idea to get a separate forum. If you are interested, please start a *NEW THREAD* in General forums listing all the i925 specific threads which could be moved.
Alright. For the second part, I'm uploading a Rooted back-to-stock which I packaged from my own device before unlocking it and flashing stuff. Here's the technique used. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2082951 . This file is large so it will be a while before it's uploaded. The files included are basically everything needed to safely get back from a custom ROM and be rooted stock again.

So does N8010 boot loader mean N8010 ROMs or no...

no. The hardware is different. The bootloaders are similar. You need a different kernel
As a note: Never flash an N8010 bootloader. this is a SPECIAL bootloader based on the N8010 bootloader. Just pretend it has nothing to do with N8010. For all practical purposes, this is an I925 bootloader we crafted out of an N8010 because we didn't have a i925 to work with.
Ok thanks, mostly just curious as i own the N8013 but considered the verizon version or selling and getting the unlocked international.
Thanks a ton Adam! Worked perfectly.
So if I have this correctly, we will be running stock until we get a dev to start working on our variant? I would assume that the other roms wouldn't install correctly with the partitions being different correct?

Yeah... don't flash nothin' or you will die. . We need a ROM dev.
Great work Adam, almost sent you a PM begging you to take this project on about 6 weeks ago... thanks!
But I had some problem as I ran the script, it stopped after it had rebooted and was stuck in Download Mode and asked me for my XDA username for some pastebin. The last information in that pastebin was:
Initialising connection...
Detecting device...
Claiming interface...
Setting up interface...
Checking if protocol is initialised...
Protocol is not initialised.
Initialising protocol...

After unpluging and holding the power down for a few secs it rebooted as usually, but I dont know if it completed or not... how do I know if the bootloader got unlocked?
If you would like to see the pastebin then I'd be glad to be able to help, just let me know.
Thanks again,

Use a different usb cable and port on your computer. There is a problem with the communications.

Bugs

Hot Restart causes wifi problems, & data. normal reboot fixes it.
Menu settings will not work. widgets and wallpers are fine. just put a settings widget on desktop or use pull down.

That's fine. I was just wondering why you reuploaded it - but if it was for mirroring purposes, I understand.
Yeah i had so many builds and files lol i was getting confused what was where so i deleted all of it and uploaded 3files required to flash.
Just glad its all come together. Ty for the time you put into as well i no your evo is retired like mine but for the community as long as my evo works i will give what i can.

Vinman, you da man! I'll give it a try in an hour or two. I'll be able to test data, but not phone or SMS/MMS since I'm on freedompop's service and all their voice/text is routed over data. Is this the only official kit-kat build? The only other one I've tried was Captain Throwback's build with spotty data.
Thanks again to all who worked on this!

I updated my TWRP build and will be posting it in a new thread over at Android Devices (or as I like to call it, @Wambo_World) so once I have that up, you might want to just link to that instead.
The new build has some cool features and is way more complete than the original version I posted. I'll let you know when it's up.

hey fishgoon, ok kewl yeah check it out, data is fully working, but Im looking to get feed back on all bugs to see if we can correct them, Im aware of most of them but it will be good to compare with the members feed back.
as far as the the Rom this is the first that has been rebuilt with working data, and added tweeks,.
but as far as the first releases belive it or not it was a simple fix on the data which was pointed out to us.
but all is good now. I must have built this a zillion times. lol had one of my buddy from tn build it as well
we all went nuts to get the data flowing. I know @ Wambo did as well.
but now we can all breath a sigh of relief.
Much love to @captain Throwback, he got us all rolling. great work on the Recovery to.
ok enjoy.
Although my Evo doesn't have service, I have been running the Captain's original KirKat ROM on it for weeks and I'm deeply grateful for all the work you guys are doing.
Forgive my ignorance, but if fixing mobile data turned out to be a "small" thing, could this information be shared with preludedrew so he could work it into evervolv? Or has he just dropped support for Supersonic altogether?

The vendor files simply need to be pushed on github. The fixed was shared in one of the other threads.
Also @vinman12, the thread is up, I just have to upload the recovery: http://android.aokforums.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=380
Great work. Everything seems super smooth. Was able to run Mounts2SD with no problem to get some more room for apps. Also, I was able to do wireless tether using native tether feature and an open connection. However, I was unable to get wireless tether to work with encryption...not a big deal...I think it was also not working in the JB roms either. Overall, runs really really well. I don't listen to music over my phone much, so probably won't try viper audio out. I'll have a better idea once I get on my home wifi and load a bunch of apps on it. I think it's plenty stable to use as a daily driver unless I find a serious app compatibility. Has anyone tried GPS navigation with google maps yet?
