Hi all, I have a XT910 MAXX with firmware 2.3.6 (Chinese), and I'd like to flash the official English version.
When I tried to download the firmware, I got confused by those names, and I'm not sure which one to choose.
There are 7 versions of retail British/Central Europe
6.5.1-73 _SPU-11-M1-2-RT
6.5.1-73 _SPU-11-M1-2
6.5.1-73 _SPU-11-PASS-10
6.5.1-73 _SPU-9 -TA-6
6.5.1-73 _SPU-9
6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2-3
6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2
My questions are:
1. Which one is 2.3.5 and which one is 2.3.6?
2. Which one is newer than another, 73 or 167?
3. Which one of these is the latest?
And can someone please explain the naming method of Motorola firmwares?
Like SPU, M1, M2, PASS, TA, RT... ..., what do these terms stand for?
Thanks

Hi guys,
I've just got my Razr and I'm new to this forum. Up till now I used to own an HTC Desire, so I am fairly familiar with the Android ROM flashing process. However, there are some differences with the Razr, so I am asking you for advice in order not to mess things at such an earlier point.
Basically, what I want to know is this: I've got a phone with a 65.1.12.XT910.PSHAAsiaRetail.en.03 system version. I would like to move to an EU firmware, if possible - found the EternityProject page and got this 651.167.20 RETAIL en.EU EuropeAustraliaEMEA. Should I flash it with with RSD before applying the OTA update Blur_Version.999.999.999.Retail.en.EU (Ice Cream Sandwich)?
Actually, should I install the ICS OTA at all, or stick with a 2.3.7?
Thanks!
I am an XT912 user and I am having trouble finding the right versions and links (it gets quite confusing from a single-carrier viewpoint!).
I need to know:
XT910 Retail Europe - What version of GB does one need to upgrade to the latest 4.0.4 leaked ICS, and does that version of GB have fastboot files?
XT910 Retail China - What version of GB does one need to upgrade to the latest 4.0.4 leaked ICS, and does that version of GB have fastboot files?
Links: for GB Fastboot files to get to a version that's upgradeable to the latest ICS 4.0.4 leaks for both China and Europe XT910.
I hope someone can help me out, it'd be good for my research
EDIT: The ICS updates I was looking for OTA zips, not fastboot files.
EDIT 2: Found Europe XT910 FB and OTA.
Hi guys,
First of all, I'm not an android tech guru, however I've been searching around on both google and xda developers for some time and haven't been able to find any info on this, and now that ICS is rolling out, I would really love to get this problem fixed.
So here we go:
My phone(XT910) is currently running Android version 2.3.5 and when I go under settings and press System Updates, it says that no update is currently available for my phone. However as far as I can tell it should be able to update to 2.3.6 which has been out for some time. Even after a factory reset, no updates are available. I'm using a Danish carrier called Telia DK.
Here is some information from my system info's panel, hopefully some of might prove useful:
System Version:
651.73.30.XT910.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU
Model number:
XT910
Android version:
2.3.5
Baseband version:
U_03.1C.85P
Weptop version:
WT-2.0.0-113
Kernel version:
[email protected]#1
Build date:
Wed Dec 7 22:22:14 CST 2011
Hopefully one of you guys will be able to help me I would love to able to try out ICS!

hi,
first of all, i don't really know if there's a NonEFIGS 2.3.6 update for EU. But for Danish usage you could flash your phone to the RETAIL version of 2.3.5
you should do this:
root your phone via ZergRush
flash the RETAIL (use the unbranded en.EU) via RSD Lite (protect root before doing this via OTA Rootkeeper from Play Store)
check for updates
there should be some 2.3.6 update available.
After the 2.3.6 update you're free to update to any eu GSM ICS ROM posted in RAZR DEV section
No ICS in DK or the rest of Europe yet. There's a thread in general.

Thank you so much! I flashed to a EU retail 2.3.6 and then to a EU ICS ROM! It runs SO much better now except the battery drains a bit faster, however I guess thats normal Thank you!

I'm in a similar situation with the phone stuck in NonEFIGS Retail 2.3.5, except I don't live in EU at all
Anyway, I need to do this step too. So you flashed to normal EU retail 2.3.5, update to 2.3.6, then find a EU ICS (which one) and flashed that?

My current Motorola System version is 65.1.40.XT910.MERetail.en.06 <- Gingerbread
I had purchased this from Middle East. I would like to change my ROM so that my phone will be identical to a brand new phone purchased from India. After reading some posts, it seems gingerbread version of Asia ROM is Blur_Version.65.1.40.XT910.AsiaRetail.en.03
Also after reading the first post on this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840296
Europe, Asia, PSHAsia and ME shares same region signature verification (ODD: you can flash any of the ROMs between it)

My question is whether I can flash the asia version over ME version using the normal flash method? And if yes, once I do it, will my motorola give me OTA update notifications meant for an Asia ROM? More specifically, ICS has been released for India Roms, but not on ME roms, will I get ICS once I change my region to Asia?
I am not very used to Motorola ROM flashing. Have only used samsung phones in the past. Hence need a little clarification.
Thanks
Yes to all the questions. You can flash Asia ROMs and you should get update when Motorola release it.

Hello,
I am thinking about buying a new RAZR (XT910, European model, unlocked) from Handtec UK and I have a few questions.
I have searched the forum for answers but I have to say that the answers got me even more confused than I was in the first place so I hope to clear things up this time.
I know some questions might seem obvious but coming from HTC I can say that it's quite of a difference
Please keep in mind that I don't want to root or open the phone's bootloader. I plan to go stock this time, if possible.
1. Assuming it will be running the generic European firmware (Gingerbread/ICS), will it supports Hebrew user interface?
2. If not, can I flash the Israeli localized firmware (SPDIRD-40_IL_OPT_1C.91P_CFC_P2B_Signed.xml.zip found here) on top of it?
Considering the fact that the Israeli ROM is based on Android 2.3.6, is there's a newer Israeli or other fully Hebrew UI supported firmware that can be flashed to the phone?
3. What if the phone will be preinstalled with a newer firmware than the one that I want to flash? Can it be downgraded?
Thank you very much and have a great weekend!
1. I'm running Epsilon v3, with European base, and that isn't supports the Hebrew interface.
2. Unfortunatelly don't know, maybe someone else.
3. The Ice Cream Sandwich is cannot be downgraded to Gingerbread.

Thanks, bigdee888! Your help is much appreciated!
You basically answered question 2 as well. I guess that the phone will be running ICS so I won't be able to flash the Israeli Gingerbread firmware on top of it. I can only hope that the phone will be preloaded with Gingerbread.
My pleasure!
But, if the phone comes with ICS, maybe you can flash an EMEA (Europe, Middle-East, Africa) sbf with the RSDLite. It could be contains the Hebrew language, but i'm not sure, because i'm running AsiaRetail & EuropeRetail roms.

Hebrew for Motorola RAZR MAXX XT910
I recently purchased one on line through Amazon US. It is being sold as " MOTOROLA RAZR MAXX XT910 BLACK 16GB SPYDER 3300mAh Battery Factory UNLOCKED GSM OEM CELL PHONE (HSDPA 850/900/1900/2100) by New Generation Products LL "
I live in Israel and was preparing myself mentally towards the gruesome task of installing Hebrew on it.
To my surprise it had Hebrew pre-installed on it as one of the system languages.
Motorola, for some reason, does not advertise this and this specific model does not even appear on their Israeli site.
