Safestrap will fc if you are not rooted. Make sure your root is working, and that you are using safestrap 2.0 if you are already on ICS.

I have the 181 update installed but seems like waiting for Ics on RAZR is going to take way longer than expected. I want to switch to something new like eclipse....Ics leak had too many issues for me. So can i flash a rom while running on 181?

Absolutely, I flashed on .181 and have had zero problems. Eclipse is even a little more battery efficient.

Awesome I cannot wait to flash later. What's best way to go about this?
Bootstrap or safestrap?
Sent from my XT910 using XDA
If you're an XT912(CDMA-Verizon) owner go safestrap as its safer,no bootlooops, switching between ROMs. Sadly, if you're an XT910(GSM) owner you'll have to use bootstrap.
Here's a website with some helpful guides on how to install either one of them, how to install ROM and more.

Looking for directions for flashing this over stock rooted .181.
I tried one I found on another site and our did not work.
I've searched, maybe not in the right places, but can't find anything detailed.
Thanks in advanced!
Mods please move to correct forum if this isn't it!

If you had safe strap or boot strap installed before your gonna have to fast boot and try again it works I just did this two days ago. I started over fast booted 181 again then followed directions exactly and it worked. Its not a bad idea to fast boot anyway first that way you know your setup to revert back for upcoming ota.
I had a similar issue, trying to update from GB .181 to ICS 79 leaked rom.
Had to reflash .181 all over again because I had previously uninstalled some VZW crap software from phone (and when trying to flash ICS i got the exclamation point after a while)
Afterwards, root, rom manager, es file explore - permisions, and all went ok
Tried it again. This time was a success! Thanks for all the help!

Does this ROM brings the GSM support in Network Settings????
I think the only one that has it is .206 but once flashed your stuck from returning back to GB.

Not on stock from the DND (diddle-n-drool); you have to install a leak-based ROM like Axiom or Black Widow, which include GUI tools for changing the setting.
Mine is set to "LTE/CDMA/GSM auto prl".
So...Yes, it does.
Global phone, FTW.
Haven't tested it, but it's set to that.
So I uses the ICS Installer v1.0 by Rouxe41, for the leak of android 4.0.3.( SV 6.14.75) a while back, i'm still on it but i want to get to .211. I know i have to get to the stock OTA first.
I'm afraid of soft bricking my phone by just letting the OTA run. Should i use RSD, if so what files and how. Can i just get the OTA and use Voodo root keeper and be fine? How do i go about gettting this and from there how do i go about getting to .211 (.211 is the latest leak, right?)?
Is your stock os gb?

If so download droid razr utitlity 1.4, go into ap fastboot, run option 1 and you should go back to stock os where you can do ota's. I had the same problem when i was going from eclipse on gb to ota ics official.

It is gingerbread, but my brother tried to downgrade to gingerbread and it didnt work, it bricked his phone. Are you sure i can go from ICS to Gingerbread?
I have been waiting for jellybean for the original RAZR. I am rooted and I have data limit and no wifi. I would download the cyanogen 10 for my RAZR but like I said, data limit of only 4 gb. Any updates you can give me on the JB update for my phone? Currently on ICS 4.0.4

This update work on GSM RAZR XT910 with ICS 4.0.4. It's the sames step describes on the website:
1) **Make sure you are on ICS 4.0.4 AND ROOTED**
2) Plug in your Razr to your PC and move the "Blur_Version.6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip " file to your SD card.
3) Download OTA RootKeeper app from the Play Store. (or using option 3 in RazrUtility)
4) Open OTA RootKeeper and select "Restore Root". Then select "Temp. un-root". Then, once again, select "Restore Root", then select Temp Unroot.
5) Power into Recovery mode. Once you see the android with the red triangle, hold vol. up and vol. down buttons.
6) Select "apply update from SD Card">"Choose .zip from SD card"
7) Select the "Blur_Version.6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip " file and wait for it to finish. (This will take about 15 min).
8) Power on your Razr and open the OTA RootKeeper app.
9) Click "Restore Root"
10) Enjoy JB with root access

Well searching and following instructions go a long way. There are multiple threads with instructions on how to update. I know because I wrote one. First step is to fastboot back to stock 211 (assuming you're on 211 now.) That will get rid of safestrap.

Why not just flash the JB Kernel and an JB Custom Rom. In that case you can roll back to tge ICS Kernel and don't get in any kind of trouble with Root.

Well my main question that I meant to ask (which I guess I did t make it clear) was, does anybody have and news on jb for the DROID RAZR without flashing anything? Just a legit rom that I guess Motorola makes.

Oh you mean an actual OTA Update? After the accidental OTA, Moto supposedly said that it would be a few weeks before they push an ACTUAL release via OTA. So, with that said, according to Moto we should get an OTA before January is over with.
Thank you! I couldn't remember the letters ota for nothing! That's what I was really asking. Thank you for the information.

My friend asked me to help him with his RAZR MAXX and I'm trying to get him to CM 10.2 or on Jellybean anyway. It is running rooted stock Moto Blur on Gingerbread 2.3.5. The OTA update fails, my guess is because of the root, but I was able to put safestrap 1.0 on it but I can't update it to CM 10 because it needs safestrap 3. I have had no luck in finding an unroot method, any suggestions?

Flash a stock jelly bean ROM using rsd lite, then re-root.
Thanks, I'll give it a try next time I see him and let you know how it went.
