common on Tom. I need you or I’m going to dump this phone and get a Samsung Galaxy because I’m pretty sure I can root one of those.
From Youtube as I haven’t heard from you:
ok. I have system Kitkat, 4.4.4 SU6-7 royal pain on my Droid Ultra. Now I followed step by step and get the following error using RSD when trying to start the process. “downgraded security version update gpt_main version failed. preflash validation failed for GPT”. What in the world does this mean? Please help.

+TransAtlanticEV Where are you Root? Tom, I need you. I’m trying to root this Droid Ultra 4.4.4 and build SU6-7.3. Ended up with the above error.
that means you are trying to flash a older firmware then your device is on and the bootloader will not let you do it. so it fails

Hi,
I have just switched to Android phone, initially i was iPhone user. Had lot of fun with jailbreaking stuff. This time I want to explore about Android. Could you please guide me step by step on how to install clean default Lolipop on Droid Ultra?
Marshmallow 6.0 ROM for the XT912 phone, that is.
havent seen that yet and dont think it is coming either
Has unlocking a maxx 4.4.4 bootloader been abandoned? It sure would be nice to have safestrap for it…. it worked awesome on the Droid Razr. It’s pretty outrageous when you cannot load an operating system on your own phone (computer). I see there’s even a ROM available for the droid razr xt912 (2011 phone).
