13.35 No-Wipe Upgrade File & Tutorial

**************************************

First and foremost a huge thanks to Shrilax_CZ at modmymobilecom for finding the file and making the depacker so we can edit these. All I did was remove the userdata partition so your files aren't overwritten.

This is not 2.1 or a major update by any means. All it does is fix some small issues.

Download the files

1. The file will require RSD Lite 4.5.7+. AFAIK 4.6 is the latest so google 'RSD Lite 4.6' and install
2. Download the edited-firmware: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/178498/att-m...35-upgrade.rar
3. If not already installed install the relevant Moto drivers for your OS (sorry mac and linux), Motorola ADB Driver 32bit OR Motorola ADB Driver 64bit

Prepare to flash

1. Extract the sbf file from the archive I posted
2. Start up RSD Lite
3. Boot your phone into the bootloader (Blue MOTO screen).
   • Make sure the phone is turned off and unplugged
   • hold down * and # on the keyboard (D + J)
   • press power, or plug in the USB cable while holding *+#
4. Make sure your phone is detected by RSD Lite (Device properties will show up)
5. Load the flash file and click start
6. Wait for reboot (this will take 5-15 minutes, maybe longer... be patient), and you are done!

BE CAREFUL

• Make sure your battery is charged
• Do not unplug your phone during the flash
• Try this at your own risk

I am not sure of the specific issue, but i don't get reboots with the barcode scanner like i used to on 12.1199. My battery has been better, and the phone seems to run a little better all around.

Overall it is a lot of small improvements from 12.1199 but there are no real major changes. It is an easy update to apply, and i would say it is worth the effort if you are still on 12.1199

(I have had the update since it was pushed OTA about a month ago)
