I followed the original post but I think I may have done it slightly differently than I should have LOL.
1. I unlocked my bootloader
2. I downloaded the V6 zip file in the original post (v6_bootimg_6.0.B.3.184_+_Clockworkmod_recovery.zip)
3. I unzipped the files to C:\Fastboot\Fastboot\
4. From within C:\Fastboot\Fastboot\ I opened a DOS window and ran "fastboot flash boot boot.img" and it appeared to work successfully.
5. I then used the following to root my phone:
adb remount
adb push su /system/xbin/
adb push busybox /system/xbin/
adb install Superuser.apk
adb shell
cd /system/xbin
chmod 6755 su
chmod 6755 busybox
/system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin/
Is what I have done okay or should I have copied the entire 'v6_bootimg_6.0.B.3.184_+_Clockworkmod_recovery.zip' file to my SD card and updated from there or is it okay what I did by just fastboot flashing the boot.img?
Sorry for the sillyness and thanks in advance for any help...
You can first flash the kernel through fastboot or flashtool, then you can flash super user and busybox through cwm.... Here's a zip-

Thanks for your reply. However, please read my first post again. I have flashed the kernel using fastboot and also now have root access using the steps I outlined. I guess I just need to know if this is right or if I should have copied the entire zip file to my SD card and flashed from there?
Not necessary

been trying to update to wolfs rom, but lame thing is xrecovery, cant find way to get it to fully working version that allows me to install the rom, instead just wont load up the sdcard
have gotroot access, busybox installed, flashtool works no problem now just this last stage now is getting to the end of my tether
I have got root explorer so can copy over files to system if needs be, but am now stuck, as have already tried the method of copying files over to update xrecovery, also could not see where adb shell is to run the commands that ive seen so am stuck there
any help would be appreciated
What I recomend that you do is flash back to 2.1 using flashtool, then root, install xRecovery, and then follow the instructions in wolfs thread. That's worked for me and many others. Goodluck

Ok First Of all This Rom Is The Fastest I have Ever used.
But ok HEre is my Huge problem. so i was rooted bl unlocked everything fine, with my stock rom with 1.3 ghz kernel until i installed the home base ext 4 mega. ok my problem is simple, when i installed it, it basically unrooted my device is was supposed to be a rooted rom, but anyway i decided to root my atrix again right? and thats when i found that when im on adb writing cp /preinstall/su /system/bin sumthing like that it says cp write error: No space left on device. and i cant root my device !!!! PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If I can't root my device it is paperweight basically
This is the set of instructions I have always used and have always worked and now they give me this annoying error of no space left on device. After cp /preinstall/su /system/bin
Put phone in fastboot mode, then:
Code: fastboot flash preinstall preinstall.img fastboot reboot
(older versions maybe need "fastboot -i 0x22b8")
after fastboot & reboot, type in adb ("adb shell") or terminal emulator, exactly:
Code: /preinstall/dosu /bin/mount -o remount,rw /system cp /preinstall/su /system/bin/chmod 6755 /system/bin/su PATH=/system/bin:$PATH pm install /preinstall/Superuser.apk
I believe in this rom has ext4 problems. If you try to modify the file system, it is ruined. At least in my case. Try install the ext3.

It's works, on my RAZR XT910 Asia, SEAOP.
I am using GNU/Linux and this how I re-ROOT my RAZR back.
Note: Only for advanced and know what todo users. Actually this is for anyone who knows how to use adb or fastboot, either in GNU/Linux, OSX or Windows.
1) I already installed the adb and fastboot in $PATH.
2) Extract the motofail exploit
3) cd /to/motofail
4) $ adb push motofail /data/local/.
5) $ adb shell 'chmod 755 /data/local/motofail'
6) $ adb shell '/data/local/motofail exploit'
7) $ adb reboot
8) $ adb remount
9) $ adb push su /system/xbin/.
9a) $ adb shell 'chmod 4755 /system/xbin/su'
10) $ adb shell '/data/local/motofail clean; reboot'
11) Install Superuser from Market.
If you already rooted your RAZR, but had been removed by OTA, you can skip step 9) to re-ROOT your RAZR. .
Note and suggestion: DO NOT push Superuser.apk to /system/app . It is wise to INSTALL from Market or do $ adb install -r Superuser.apk. Better to remove /system/app/Superuser.apk before reinstall the Superuser.apk from Market or adb : $ adb shell 'rm /system/app/Superuser.apk'
You can remove the motofail later;
$ adb shell 'rm /data/local/motofail'
You can read run.bat to see the commands involved.
Thank you...

So do I extract Doomlords' package [from other threads] or do I extract the ATTACHED package? Namely, Motofail_windows.zip.
Edit: Turns out that the "Doomlord's Package" in the instructions was for the attached pacakge. I've successfully rooted my XT910 that's on 65.1.21.XT910.PSHAsiaRetail.en.03
I'm sorry

No, there's no fastboot file for 65.1.21.XT910.PSHAsiaRetail.en.03. But you can go there by OTA Update via Moto Recovery
Do I just need to extract the motofail and run .bat file on my razr which is on new ota?

Extract motofail_windows.zip to a folder anywhere on your computer, on your desktop perhaps?
Make sure the phone is enabled for USB Debugging [Read the instructions for this]
Run "Run.bat" through your PC and the other processes will be automated.

Hey thanks for your prompt reply..
I am getting this error when i do OTA
had to get the asia rom through the method above but i can't update any OTA!
i have downloaded the asia ota and put it on my sd.
i boot into recovery and update from zip/sd card.
all goes well until half way and i get an error.
something along the lines of "assert failed: apply_patch_check("MTD:boot:8388608:c3d17a6e41533c 813209ed51dfef327df8e1f76")
E:error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status7 )
Installation Aborted
So i must have damaged some system files right?? Now how do i get the Fastboot files or is there any alternative as to how to go about it?
Worked for me like a charm, thx bro (651.167.19.XT910.Retail.en.EU).

Titanium Backup said that 4755 isn't optimal for su and changed it to 6755

Oh I see that you're using manual. Give the auto one a try?
i tried the auto first, everything completed successfully but i still end up unrooted...
then i tried manually step by step and there was the error at step 9...
It seem the /system didn't remounted to rw(read/write) mode. Did the exploit success?
Do the motofail clean step, reboot and start again from step 1 again.
Good luck.

you need is adb and command prompt
adb remount
adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
optional ones
adb shell chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell chown 0 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb shell chgrp 0 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
Just reflash the rom from recovery!
Without wiping data!

well I'm with Amit here. You must have the original ROM's flashable zip file you were currently using?
Simply extract it. Get to PATH_TO_CURRENT_LOCATION\system\framework\framework-res.apk after extracting it. Get the file and push it via adb. Easy as 123.
Reflashing again restores all the system files...? Happened with me... N I use to flash again! Lol Never tried Amits Method

Yes and he forgot to mention that we need to set permissions, without setting permissions = no go
Code:
chmod 0777 /system/bin/flash_image
What do you mean by "3. Extract flash_image"?
It is a file, a script, isn't it?

Okay now I understand.
But without settings permissions in /system/bin/, /xbin/, /init.d the system won't run the script, as it hasn't any permissions to run it.
