Hey buddy.
The Razr blade root method should help you. Make sure to have your drivers installed and also be in MTP mode when connected to computer with debugging on in settings/developer options.

This method did not work for me
This is what I get. Tried it four times and still no root. It was rooted before the OTA Also.
Got it in MTP mode and have the latest Mot drivers installed. Also in debugging mode...
Any ideas. Thanks

Thanks for the replies.
I noticed they have root for 4.1.2 that was accidentally leaked on Christmas Eve last year... I'm afraid that maybe the update I have may not be that accidental leak... but rather a more official build than the leak was?
Were there two 4.1.2 jelly bean updates?

I have no idea. If you are on the latest update, the method above works.
I'll give the method above a shot.
Definitely won't hurt to try... hopefully.
Does using this method require a specific version of Windows? I only have a laptop with XP on it right now.
I know when it came to rooting my previous phone, the Thunderbolt, I had to have a laptop with Windows 7 for it to root properly.

Bump to get this question answered.
Thanks.
RAZR blade should work from XP.

Okay, so I tried running it and it was a no go.
I installed the "drivers" found here:
https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
Put my phone into MTP mode and turned on USB debugging.
Now, I downloaded and extracted the Razr Blade files and then double clicked run.bat (I got a prompt asking to extract all or just run) -- I just clicked run.
Here is my result:

The screen will keep coming on and then go back off.
---EDIT- NEVER MIND---
Bahahaha... didn't give Superuser permission.
I'm slow sometimes.
Worked like a charm.
Thanks everyone!!

Im pretty sure you got it by now, but for anyone else, this is either a driver error, or more likely, its the new adb security added in later android versions. If you see a popup on screen saying allow debugging, check always and allow.
I was reading the Apps and Games section searching how to retrieve one of my games' save data, and I found it's probably on
/data/data/com.square_enix.android_googleplay.FFIII_GP
However I cannot access it normally, it's phone's internal memory. After few more searches, I came to a little idea: maybe using adb.
Then the question is, can I use adb to browse my device's internal and external storages, just like I browse through my PC using command line? (In my case I use Linux, so my terminal is Bash).
Can I copy from internal storage and write on it without root using adb? I don't want to root my device for a series of reasons...
Thanks.
No, to write to your internal storage you need root (to read it I'm not sure, try it). And yes, to explore you can use commands (btw, the commands are the same on Linux and Android).
Can I use "adb shell" to browse my phone with commands, just like I browse my Linux system with the command line?
I ask this in order to avoid being trial and error using push and pull and getting "remote object does not exist" errors, I'd need to see the actual directories and files...
I really dunno. As I said before, you can't write, but I'm not sure if you can read, so you need to try.
can "format as internal storage" be restored to sony's MM?
I know MM has just arrived. but I was hyped for MM because of this feature so you can understand my disappointment. I actually downgraded to LP since they even removed Stamina!
The main problem is that the 16gb internal are not enough. And if you have many photos and videos, the thumbnail data can be large in size, reached 5gb with me! And you can not change its directory. And it regenerates if deleted.
In my former Xperia p, I think I overcame this issue by making the thumbnail data file a dummy one then read-only it (i'm not sure whether I did that on Xperia p or another former phone) . I wasn't able to do this trick in LP
I use z2 d6502 rooted LP now.
My SD card is Kingston 64gb class 10
Well, that's something that disappointed me, too. So I tried it different ways f.e. here, but ended without result.

if you want to get your game obb files from your internal storage to your sd card for example i can reccomand the xposed module "OBB TO SD"
it`s simple to use, just inable it and then you can move your obb files from sdcard0\Android\obb to sdcard1\Android\obb!
if you want a rooted mm with xposed and a working twrp recovery check out this thread: id did it this way
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/6-0-1-d6503-23-5-0-570-prerooted-t3364817
in default , there is no setting to format as internal sdcard.
but you can enable it by usin adb command.
connect the phone to pc with usb debugging on..
open windows command prompt and type "adb shell sm list-disks" (ignore the quotes)
notice the output, it will be something like ---> disk:179,64 (179,64 is ID for sdcard)
now , parting the sd card.
* type .-->> adb shell sm partition disk:179,64 private (if you want to use the whole sdcard as internal storage)
* type --->> adb shell sm partition disk:179,64 mixed 70 (if you just want to use 30% of sdcard as internal storage)
** I found this way when i was googling, this is not a work of mine **
Thank you for your reply. I think I will try that

This works for me. But I have camera issue. Cannot take picture, said "Memory unavailable." Don't know if it associated with adoptable storage. Am I the only one?
I have no problem in saving picture.
Or , just try to set sdcard ss default in camera.
Or , if you install xposed and use xinternal module, just remove it. It'll give so much trouble.

Change folder to where adb.exe is and enter adb.exe instead of adb.
Or, add adb.exe to you path variable (see here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...u-can-run-it-from-any-command-line-in-windows)
You get that error as adb is not into $PATH so you need to specify it or add it to $PATH.
