http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1492708
I bought the phone a few days ago and was wondering what the best root to put on my phone
In my opinion, not really a "best" root...........either your rooted or not. Of course, if you want to go beyond rooting there's lot's of info here to assist with your desires.
The forum would need detailed info on what you want to accomplish......
Good luck. Search is your friend!

Yes sir I'm a noob.. now that's out of the way can someone please direct me to a thread that will help me re-root after the 2.3.6 update. Thanks for any help

Use the RAZR utility found in the development section. That is the ultimate tool for the cdma and gsm RAZR.

There are several utilities in the development section.
How about a link to the one you are talking about?

There is only one called Razr utility. Mattgroff created it.

There are two utility threads by mattgroff. One for CDMA and one for CDMA and GSM. But at least you narrowed it down considerably.
Thanks! (Yeah, I hit the button)

I couldn't find one. Do a Google search for "motofail". It's what I used to root mine after I updated. The unroot in the fourms on this site still works for it too. It's a win win.

wasnt it posted alomost everywhere that it was rooted before it even came out...
P3Droid
P3Droid said it would be rooted on release. I assume he ment 11/11/11, so sit tight, it looks like he is testing the root method on a few phones before he releases it.

Hey guys, need some help, I'm going to root a friends gs2. It's from Claro
In Puerto Rico. I had copied the build number and stuff but I don't have them to paste them here, the model was GT-I9100, the kernel version was KE2. I want to know is, which of the two dev forums am I suppose to go, the one that says original or the other one. And I'm having a hard time figuring out where exactly do I start to root the phone (pardon me, Ive never flashed roms or kernels on gs device lol) thanks in advance ::thumbup::thumbdown::what:

Original dev is the main thread to look at. But did you bother checking out this link in general forums? It's right here on the first page.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1499331
Otherwise search for CF-Root which is the main thread for rooting. Learn to flash with Odin, learn to use CWM... But I won't search for you. You can find it yourself I think.

Hi everyone! I'm new with motorola, and i'm not used to the utilities and terms you use here, so I need a little help to install a ROM if you don't mind I have searched through the forums and what I have finally understood is the following, please correct me if I am wrong at anything, I wouldn't like to brick my phone at the first day lol
I would like a rom with the stock interface of android from google (the most similar to nexus stile), and searching through the forums I have found this wich seems to be really nice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1734893
Now I am at gingerbread (ICS blocked from mobile company -.-), and as it is said in the thread to install it I need to be on ICS (Latam) allready, so I think that first I need to flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1753383
This needs to be flashed through RSD lite with the phone turned on, doesn't it? with the USB debugging enabled, and media sync? Then I run RSD lite and just open the xml file...
and to instal the rom from epsilon project, it is said in the thread that it has to be done through some kind of "BootMenu Recovery", and with a full wipe. What is that BootMenu Recovery? I have searched and I have found a touch CWM based recovery for Razr and the "Bootstrap recovery". Is this BootMenu Recovery mentioned in the thread the generic name for both of them so I can use any? Or is it a different recovery?
I hope you can help me with my questions, I know they are really noob but I am new to motorola and I don't understand much from this forums. Anyway as you can see I have tried to search before making stupid questions. Thanks in advance to anyone wanting to help, and of course for all the devs from XDA that make our lives a little easier
Ok, i first tried flashing the Latam firmware, and I got a failure message from rsd lite. I tried several times, and allways the same. I attached a picture showing it. Any idea of what I'm doing wrong? does the bootloader need to be unlocked or the phone to be sim-unlocked to flash firmwares through RSD lite as in other phones? thanks in advance
Sorry, forgot screenshot, here it is
Your razr is not a latam device. You can't install the retail.br .
Where did you bought ur razr or whar's ur current system version?

huge thanks!!! it worked!!
Sorry to join the chorus of noobs asking for rooting advice when there are vids and threads galore, but I am finding this all confusing.
I have got my new S3 from the UK network Three, it is of the following spec:
Model Number = GT-I9300
Android Version = 4.0.4
Baseband version = I9300XXLH1
I would be grateful if someone could advise me of the simplest method I should use for rooting as I am confused.
I would love to also hear any suggestions on custom roms but obviously that is a secondary request!
Thanks to anyone who wouldn't mind advising me! :silly:
read the stickies in the general i9300 forum. All your questions will be answered there (including a step bu step rooting guide)
the only way that you can mess it up is if you think you're smarter than the guide and not follow it properly.

Just use mskip's s3 toolkit 6.0. Don't worry the toolkit is fool proof.

Thank you very much for your reply, unfortunately that method does not have the build version of my phone (IMM76D.I9300XXBLG8) on the list (it has XXBLG9 though lol).
Going to try XXBLG9 as it seems this is the suggestion in the tools thread. It is funny how in all these noob proof threads I follow to root my devices I always end up taking leaps of faith! I wish I had more acumen for this stuff!
Thank you very much for putting me on the right track all the same, I appreciate it!

Just read the instructions on the toolkit. It says to choose the closest build if you cant find yours. Goodluck!
