Hi All,
I just got my Motorola razr XT910 in the UK and tried rooting it. The root methods for XT912 Droid Razr do not work.
Does anyoe know if there is a root method for the EU version?
I received my XT910 (Rogers Canadian Version) on Monday (had to activate and purchase to get the Sales Rep to Give me one) and while waiting to receive my Sim Unlock Code, used the quick rooting method that came out same day or so, and worked as advertised.
I followed the how to, and it was really point and click... done!

No, I tried two other methods with one click and they did not work.
Please post on appropiate forum...I believe you got a warning when posting at Development froum right?
dont ignore it please!!!
Thread Moved
Has anyone got any info on this? I am still looking to root mine. Will try some more methods tomorrow, but would want to make sure it can be done at present time.
Some reported that Pete's exploit worked flawlessly for their XT910, worth a shot.

I try all of them, but no luck, and the the software says it is for 2.3.4, not 2.3.5

Hi,
Can you not share it with those who already have the phone? It was released in Europe a few days ago.
PM me if you can please.
once you root the phone does that mean your bootloader is now unlocked?

Nope. Only gives you access to root.
Maybe you even unlocked the bootloader?

It seems it only works for vzw as I tried a few different one click methods and they al failed.
I have the VZW version and I can't get it to root. Says it is but no superuser and TIB says no go.

1st you need to root it ! go on "original android development" find the tutorial for rooting and do it
after you root you can go to android market and search for unlock sgs2 or just type "chainfire" and you gona see the application to unlock you phones for all networks
my android version is 2.3.5 will this still work?

Are we talking sim unlock? If so search market for sim unlock and use the chinfire or helroz ones.
I had no luck with chainfires but the helroz one worked perfectly.
Mine was locked to orange.

I don't think that there is a "one click root" for atrix 4g. this thread should point you in the right direction.

Pete's Root Tools don't work on 2.3.6.
You could try the motofail method. It can be found HERE. It didn't work for me, but you may get lucky.
The only method that worked for me was the preinstall method. You can find that HERE.

I was wondering how Carrier and Country affect getting updates? I have a Z Ultra 6802 (HK - came with Chinese apps) and haven't seen the 501 update on my phone yet and I really don't want to unlock the bootloader.
So I guess my ultimate question is: Will I get the update in the US while on AT&T? (I'm ok waiting, just want to know)
Thanks,

Eventually. Or you can do what I did and flash a generic 510. Then use PC companion to repair if it doesn't work properly. When repaired, a new version of 510 is installed by Sony that works.

Hello guys,
I tried to unlock my bootloader a few weeks ago and it was horrible, so i sent it to service and they sent me a brand new phone. But i want to unlock bootloader and i don't know what files use excatly on this model. Can you help me?
Sys. info : ver.: 45.31.20.MB860.Vodafone.en.EU
Android stock 2.3.4
build num.: 4.5.2A-74_OLE-31.20
root: yes
unlocked bootloader: no
What exactly is so confusing here?
Clearly you need to use the ihop version. The rest of the process is the same for every Atrix out there.

Guide
IHOP bootloader
Unlocking the bootloader doesn't always work (depends on the device and some other things), but I can't imagine a situation where a failed unlock would require taking the phone to the service center...
Ok, i'll try it tomorrow thanks....but when it fails ? ...last time it said me "failed to boot 2" ...
Did you actually read the whole procedure? Because it doesn't seem like you did.
Yes, I did....then i tried to search far on the google and i found that i am not alone with thi problem. Many people is saying, that is unable to unlock this bootloader...:/
http://mobility.forumsee.com/a/m/s/p12-9847-0229151--atrix-bootloader-unable-unlock.html
"Failed to boot" is a perfectly normal and expected part of the unlock process and everyone gets it. All you have to do is boot into fastboot mode and flash a custom recovery, then use that to flash a ROM. I don't know why you went to Google, literally all you need is here on XDA.
I used this guide to unlock 4 Atrix boot-loader so far including my own http://atrix4ghacks.com/atrix-4g-hacks/how-to-unlock-bootloader-and-install-permanent-recovery/
Ok, I will try it now ....
EDIT: it still gives me that OEM unlock is not implemented...
Either you didn't flash the IHOP SBF correctly, or you have one of those newer Atrixes that cannot be unlocked.

And, is there any chance, that I can unlock it, or in some service?

The only thing you can do is join the crowd of people who have the same problem which has yet to be solved. There is nothing you can do right now to unlock your device.
I know that pain.. I am an Atrix owner too, who owns a newer one..
I don't think that we will see them unlocked, because a lot of devs already moved on and there are now just a few Atrix owners..
