Soft Bricked, Please Help - Motorola Droid RAZR

I soft bricked my 4 hour new Razr. Was freezing stuff on Titanium and might have selected something I wasn't supposed to. Now When I boot it up, it just boot loops. What should I do?
Hard factory reset and got it up and past the set up screens, now getting FC's on something about my account, causing the homescreen to be blank and I can't do anything other than pull down the status bar.

You need to root... get a list of your system apps and compare them to a stock Razr (check the system dump) and then adb push /system/app whatever is missing

It's rooted, but I can't access anything. Just stuck on the blank (black) screen with the status bar.

You can still use ADB

Factory resetting.

I'm currently running the supercharged script on my phone and I was wondering if it was safe to factory reset the phone. Also would I lose the supercharged script?
While you're here, can someone tell me how we get into stock recovery? Same as the X?

Bump? Does anyone know?

If you are doing a factory reset, I would remove the supercharge script and reapply it after the fact. Can you elaborate on the stock recovery... not sure what it was like on the X.
To pull up the Android Recovery, power off the phone, holding the volume down button power on the phone. Release both buttons when you see "Fastboot". Press the volume down button until you see "Android Recovery" and press both volume buttons. Not sure if this is the same as what you are looking for or not.
Ok, exactly what I was looking for. Should I also restore bloat or can that stay frozen?

If you restore with apps frozen, it will more than likely unfreeze them by default. I've never done a factory reset with frozen apps myself, but that is the going consensus. On a side note, if you want to leave the supercharge script in place, you can verify it is still running using the script manager after the reset. Setting up the supercharge script isn't very hard to do.
Alright thank you for the info sir. I always had a custom rom to depend on with my Fascinate so its a bit of a challenge with this one.

What will not boot? What rom are you on? What did you freeze? Some roms need that bloatware in order for basic services to function.
Unfreeze the apps if possible, reboot your phone then see if things work correctly.

The Motorola droid x2 wont open it stops just by the so called "red eye" then it goes back to beginning droid. then again the mystic "red eye" then back to beginning
if i would be able to pass that "red eye and goes in the system" i would be able hopefully to unfreeze the system files.
is there a way to pass that and open it up.
is there a way to control it from the PC?.
is there some way to control it with the SD card?
or an advance way with some code?
I feel so lost when that TOY turns out to be able only to display a red mystic rotating eye
That's called bootloop. See if a factory reset works. If not its time to sbf.

if you want less bloat, install CM7 or eclipse 2.1

Need help! Screen not working

I need a way to pull all data from my phone. the screen turns on but is completely unresponsive in the middle of the screen so I can't type half the letters. Anyway to pull data from recovery?
Have you tried creating a backup from cwm?
Its not rooted, completely stock
Guessing you tried auto rotate? When mine went bad, I turned it on, and rotated every direction as needed. Worked for me. Kind of a pain, but allowed me to get all of my info......
Ya I tried, doesn't rotate
That's terrible. Sorry to hear.
The only other way would be a lapdock. I did that as well.
Have u tried adb pull?

What data that you want to pull out? Do u familiar with LINUX platform?
Sent from my MB860 using xda app-developers app
Mainly pictures And a few contacts. Pictures weren't saving on SD card unfortunately. No I'm not familiar with Linux
Try install airdroid and see whether u can backup from there.

If XP try android commander
Load it up and you will see all partitions for your phone. Tick sdcard or mnt/emmc and pull to pc
But may not work with you being stock and unrooted

on my mums atrix the touch screen was unreponsive like mentioned but this went away after a while.... it could be a software issue
Do a restore from proper .SBF with rsdlite, this will reset back to factory ROM. If your problem was software, this will fix.
Consider unlock and use CMW...

Rootcheck says not rooted but rooted features added still remain

I rooted yesterday using this method (which had me rooted in less than 5 minutes, no problems at all)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1819660
Then i decided to purchase ROM toolbox pro to change up the font and other icons. The fonts worked fine but once i tried changing the battery icon it wouldn't change to the new one after boot. Instead it would show the new circular icon (which is the one i wanted) then fade into the battery icon i didnt want. So after trying to change the icon i decided i didnt want to keep it rooted so i used Ginger Unroot. Once it rebooted i noticed that the animation i had changed when it boots was still playing even though i had supposedly unrooted.
I used rootchecker to check if i was still rooted perhaps and its showing that my phone is no longer rooted but the font i had switched to is still there and so is that battery icon, as well as the animation and other icons i had changed.
So now i dont know if my phone is rooted or not and im not able to reroot using the same method as above anymore because during the process it says "device not found".
My question is i guess, what can i do to just go back to stock but still save my apps and data or can i reroot some other way so that the icons can go back to stock and i can start over fresh.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Unrooting wont undo the changes you made when rooted. Unrooting will simply remove root access. What version is your phone?

>changed battery icon from stock to a bar and number icon using 1% increments
>changed gps, wifi, download, usb, signal, vibrate, voicemail icons and status bar color
>also changed the boot animation that occurs after "motorola dual core" appears after booting.
i didnt add any ROM so i was still in stock i assume
Did you back up anything prior to changing it?

Not that I can remember. I really just want to be able to change the status bar notifications because they seem unsettled. I get 'ghost' icons alot and have to drag down the bar so they can appear normal again.

[Q] Default weather app for widget

Hello guys.
I have recently upgraded to the verizon jb leak.
Then, i decided to install this launcher:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2055361
A home screen, and circle widget.
But i can't get circle widget to work. It always says "weather app not installed".
Any1 installed this and had this problem also ? Thanks !

You need to copy weather into system/app and set permissions

Thumbnails didn't showed up
anyway
yesterday i crashed my default rom (after restoring a backup with titanium backup, all i had was ".com.android.phone has ended unexpectedly".
Nothing fixed it - so i switched to JellyRazr (there was some time i was trying to make it work on my phone)
and it was curious - becoz i forgot to clean the rom slot, juust replaced the verizon one with the jellyrazr...and right now it is perfectly working
so i don't use the default launcher again heh...and i'm not planning to
