I just got the razr coming from Samsung's galaxy S (t-mobile vibrant) which I had rooted, OC'd, and running ICS on. I'm not new to rooting/flashing kernels/roms, etc. but I am new to the razr.
I am just wondering if there are any safety features built into this system in case something happens or it gets bricked or something? On the vibrant I could ALWAYS get into download mode and use a computer program called ODIN to flash my phone back to stock. It was nearly impossible to brick it... is there anything like this with the Razr yet?
From what I understand so far, I will root it, install safestrap (i.e. CWM) and then I can flash any of the Razr roms I want... Correct? Thanks guys!

you need to be more informed before flashing any of the razr rom's
not every custom rom will provide both, CDMA and GSM... so you need to differ witch one's will work with your device.
way to install is right. rooting, safestrapping, flashing... but keep an eye on the rom preferences
downlode mode... yeah, i think so... bricked my razr with flash failre, boot was unavailable... but could enter fastboot mode (POWER + VOLDOWN) to flash some new rom via rsd lite or fla**** by eternityproject
ok thanks... well, I have the Razr with Verizon in the US. But when I was talking to the verizon rep, he said that it uses both CDMA and GSM... (because I had asked him why they had switched over to SIM cards). He said that they are using the GSM network for data only because it works much faster/smoother for data. But it was my understanding that they are still using CDMA for voice. Am I wrong?
Do you have any threads you could post to explain the process to a newb? =) I have read a lot of the stickies... thanks for the response!
I’m stuck in a rut. I got a Motorola Atrix 4G (AT&T) last week and was trying to unlock it using the following instructions: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Motorola_Atrix_4G:_Full_Update_Guide#Unlocking_the_Bootloader
I installed RSD Lite 5.7, the Motorola Drivers, and downloaded the unlockable bootloader. I got to step 12, and then everything quickly went downhill. I got stuck on the horrid “Failed to boot 0x1000” screen, along with the list of options. I have tried booting into RSD, running RSD Lite, and loading the bootloader, but I get a “Device Interface” prompt…not exactly sure of the wording at the moment. I drained the battery last week messing with it, and had to buy a standalone charger (which I just received today).
I am not sure of the Android version/firmware version that was on the phone prior to doing this. I know, mistake #1.
My computer is recognizing the Atrix, but the RSD Lite is not able to install the unlockable bootloader (listed on the above site). I have downloaded one “Stock Restore” MFBSR.zip (I can’t seem to find the link to the thread) but this was not able to fix the problem. It recognized my device, but the Atrix wouldn’t accept any of the commands.
I am not sure of what to do, short of calling Motorola and trying to get them to help. I’m sure they would either want to replace it (charging me) or just basically tell me I’m SOL.
I wanted to try FruitCake’s recovery tool, and found the following thread, which has mirror links of some of the files:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24472332#post24472332
I have no clue as to what I would use, so I haven’t even tried downloading one of them. I’m seriously at my wit’s end..I have been Googling and trying to avoid making a post about this. Any help is greatly appreciated. I am about to try the following directions:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19986512&post=234
Also probably important to note that I tried unlocking it using Fastboot, but it was "Waiting for device" for forever and did nothing. When I try to go into Recovery, it says Magic Value Mismatch.
Thanks guys.

I was stuck on the Moto Dual Core Screen as well. I used the automatic unlock MAIN program to unlock, root and install custom recovery. When I tried to flash epinter's CM10 ROM I got boot hang at the Moto screen.
You can RSD back to stock (e.g. I found the AT&T .151 sbf file and restored my phone to working condition on 2.3.6 GB).
In the end I figured out that the recovery in the auto unlock tool (both the telfar and CWM options) was borking the CM10 flash. I ended up:
1. RSD lite AT&T .151 GB 2.3.6 sbf file
2. Unlock Bootloader with automatic unlock
3. Root and install custom recovery
4. Boot into android
5. download goo.manager from play store
6. Install open source recovery with goo.manager
7. reboot into recovery
8. Make backup of everything
9. Flash JB CM10 & GApps
Phone is up and running w/o issues. A bit of googling should find you the necessary sbf to get you on your feet again.
Good luck!

I am trying this...but when I am in RSD Lite, it says "Failed Flashing Process: Unable to retrieve interface handle (0x7027)". It does detect my device before this, saying Port Type: USB, IMEI/ESN/MEID: NA, and Status: Connected...

He can't. Fastboot doesn't respond. Also he can't flash any SBF, everything fails.
Looks more like a hard brick to me...

My Droid Razr MAXX is Bricked and I really need my phone! Any ideas out there?
Ill start from the beginning, list every single Mod I have done to my phone, where it failed, and why it failed, and see if there is a possible solution. This was my FIRST EVER SMARTPHONE. I had had a samsung basic flip phone for nearly 8 years but I am a huge computer nerd (Windows Specifically) and thought I could learn how to modify an Android. This Bricking and Erroring of my Razr MAXX all had to do with me downloading and installing the wrong ClockWorkMod .zip file, it was CWM_on_boot_REMOVE.zip instead of the correct install file. I wasnt paying attention to the attachments here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385283. If you look at the bottom you will notice only the remove file is there, because I did not see the other link in the post ITSELF to the CWM_on_boot real package download site. So here, in great detail, is what happened:
Early October 2012 - Recieve Droid Razr MAXX from Verizon. Comes with Android ICS 4.0.4
Mid October 2012 - Razr MAXX rooted using easy ICS root, works fine
Early November 2012 - Bought Motomizer Expert Edition to make overclocking easy, works fine
Late January 2013 - Cought wind of official Jelly Bean OTA and was deciding whether or not to start doing research and get it done
Early February 2013 - Cought wind of Jelly Bean OTA ROOT now possible and so I decide to make the push that night
Early February 2013 - Noticed that on Jelly Bean, many apps run slow/lag quite a bit. Games that are normally so easy to run (i.e. Fruit Ninja)
Early February 2013 - Get fed up with my lagging apps and decide its time for a custom ROM
Just Yesterday - (See Below...)
So what happened Yesterday was I installed Razr Bootstrap.apk and downloaded (or so I thought) CWM_on_boot (ClockWorkMod Recovery - N BOOT) package from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1385283. I hit "Bootstrap" in Razr Bootstrap, it said "successful", I hit "Reboot Recovery" and it reboots into ClockWorkMod Recovery. Well, Turns out it was the CWM_on_boot_REMOVE package instead and not paying attention in ClockWork Mod Recovery, I hit "Install from SD" (NOT "Install Update from SD"). Here I am thinking everything went fine and dandy, then the phone rebooted after the "Removal"... Now it gives me this screen on boot:
ENCRYPTION UNSUCCESSFUL
Encryption was interrupted and can't complete. As a result, the data on your phone is no longer accessible. To resume using your phone, you need to perform a factory reset. When you set up your phone after the reset, you'll have an opportunity to restore any data that was backed up to your Google Account. (Below appears a small square button, it says "Restore Phone"
I have tried the reset button, it goes to the reset screen and appears to work, just to reboot to the "ENCRYPTION UNSUCCESSFUL" screen yet again, and does this over and over no matter how many times I try. I have a Micro-SD adapter and so I re-loaded the Jelly Bean OTA .zip file as well as the real CWM_on_boot package but cannot install them from the stock recovery mode screen. AP Fastboot goes to a screen where it says my phone is "Locked".
That is all the information as far as I can remember, if you need specifics feel free to ask. I was wondering if there was a way to reverse my CWM-on_boot_REMOVE error and simply remove all of the tweaks I have ever performed (i.e. get rid of modified kernel and JB and install original ICS and factory Kernel) and restore the phone to the day I pulled it out of the box back in October. After this mix up, I dont ever plan to use custom ROMs or OTA leaks ever again. Just a simple root on stock phone with some overclocking will do for me.

Well, did you tried to reboot the phone in AP Fastboot?! Turn off the phone and hold down "Vol Up + Down, then power" the AP Fastboot screen will appear.
If you can access the AP Fastboot screen, then your phone can be restored. Download the RSD Lite 6.1.4 and flash a Stock ROM to your phone.
I bricked my Razr Maxx trying to upgrade my ICS 4.0.4 to the JB leak, but the process failed. My phone was booting directly to the AP Fastboot screen.
It will restore your phone, but you will lost all your data.

I tried to find RSD 6.1.4 but only found version 5.7 but it said it was compatable with the Motorola Droid Razr MAXX so I downloaded and installed it onto my laptop. I located the official stock rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1767255. I tried flashing this ROM and it failed at step 12/16: "boot.img". So I tried Droid Razr Utility 1.8.2 and again everything wen well except for 'boot' but on this utility it gave me the error:
writing 'boot'... INFOPreflash validation failure

Always having failures when "writing files".
Believe me. Search for a Stock rom which is compatible with your phone (Maxx XT910) and correspond to your country. I'm from Brazil and all of the roms I tested couldn't be installed with RSD Lite (fails on step 6th). I found a brazilian stock rom (no carrier logo or apps) of ICS and installed it.
I can't post any links here (newbie yet), but the RSD Lite 5.7 works too. But you need to find a compatible rom.

Another important hint. Be careful with it. I don't know if the phone can be charged when is bricked. Try to not keep it turned ON unnecessary.

I think you need to get the original jellybean rom from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/pho...SDLite) then u're phone is fully operational.
I think you need to get the original jellybean firmware then flash the xml file using RSDLite(assuming you have RSDLite) then u're phone is fully operational.

PLEASE any help will be very much appreciated.
my xt912 got bricked some time ago... i recently saw a way to unbrick it using RSD LITE and i thought i might as well work on it myself..
long story cut short,rsd lite keeps giving failed when it get to the 12/16 step
kept reporting failed:boot flash failed...
now i've seen some people reporting failed but not at this stage so the solutions like "delete get var lines"" dont apply
i really hope someone has got the answer....
appreciate any consideration by yáll...

Okay I have similar problem,I think. I can enter fastboot on phone, But all of a sudden my computer can't install the fastboot. So I can't use rsdlite or any other utility out there. Any suggestions??? Or is this phone completely bricked now?

Wow, it I only took a year!! Somebody cares. Lol. I appreciate it though. I did do exactly that though.
After installing Safestrap and restarting the phone it doesn't seem to want to boot into my stock rom anymore. I just see the Motorola logo.
I can enter the Safestrap menus just fine.
Are you sure your waiting long enough?
Motorola logo comes first, that's the bootloader.
After that is the safestrap hijack menu. If you choose the option on the left you go to recovery. If you chose the option on the right or leave it alone for 15 seconds, you boot normal.

I've waited over 5 minutes, still only getting the Motorola icon sending out waves.
I've managed to install CM 10.1.3 on ROM slot 1 though, so i at least got phone function back for now. Still kind of worrying that i have no stock access
Does anyone have an idea how i could get it to boot normally on stock again, or maybe just reset stock while keeping the CM rom intact?
Done:
Follow: http://droidrazrroot.com/
then install the SafeStrap:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2427125
If you bricked, use the fastboot and recover back to 4.1 and try again. Make sure you only install one safestrap, preferably safestrap 3.7.x detailed in http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2427125
Don't install the safestrap version detailed in http://droidrazrroot.com, that version is too old to run KK.
KK requires TWRP 2.7.x.x or higher or for our purposes safestrap 3.7.x or higher
If you want to flash back to stock just follow the fastboot instructions detailed in http://droidrazrroot.com/
That will remove all custom recoveries and set you back to a full stock, i think there will be like one OTA update after you flash back with fastboot.

Same here...
I just get the same issue, as the fellow man (OP).
Moto Logo waving loop. Can enter Safestrap mode and Recovery but I cannot proceed to install a custom ROM either. on ROM Slot 1.
Tried to install the 672.180.41.XT910.Retail.en.EU but the system keeps nagging around on multiple errors (Sideloads, enforced package signatures and permissions [but actually I think that I lost root from my attempt to reinstall stock and now APFastboot Device Locked, as also cannot fix permissions in Safestrap]).
Tried the RSDLite with the Retail OTA mentionned but RSD is keeping asking for an xml file (which as I much as I tried to find it in the package, it's nowhere near to be found).
Tried to find an actual OTA for the 672.180.41.XT910.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU to put in SDCard and launch a fixing procedure, but I cannot find a single working link on the web and Motorola is not offering it.
Anyone with an actual idea to resuscitate the Razr ?
P.S: RAZR MAXX UMTS (GSM) ICS 4.0.4
Thanks in advance. :cyclops:

You can't flash stock rom with the phone,you must do it with Rsd.And you don't have to look for xml file,just decompres the zip with Rsd and click start.
Here's the Ics EU stock,

And here's Rsd 6.1.5,
https://mega.co.nz/#!AB0QgD5J!duN3ueKyz5nHT1bErDGB877E7WC-ZJLg0_QKygUtTFM
Shutdown the phone,
Press vol-,vol+ and power button at the same time,
Scroll down to AP Fastboot with vol -,
Select AP Fastboot with vol +
Connect the phone to computer and flash it.

First of all, THANK YOU! Because of you (and your precious link), I did got back to work my little beast and a working device , so you're the :good:
P.S. I'm actually good at the Windows eco-system but the Android one (and Linux) is still an unexplored terrain to learn (which is actually a good thing, as it gives you plenty of new things to learn). And now that I have the file, I will try to go on the Custom Roms side, by updating to JB first.
Thanks again for you precious help!

Now, I know there are several threads already about bootlooping, but I could not find one with my particular situation. I received my Droid Razr from my uncle, and after doing a full factory reset, I found out it was still rooted from this article: Motorola Included a Root Check in the RAZR, RAZR MAXX, and DROID4 With Ice Cream Sandwich. He did not make a backup ROM. I really don't have a clue what to do in this situation, so I just thought to myself, "If I restore it to a previous version of Android ROM from the internet, I can just update to a newer one." (I forgot to mention that the only reason I wanted to unroot was so I could get the latest update.) Well, I tried to do it using this:How to Unroot/Unbrick Your Rooted Droid Razr Back to Android 2.3.6![6.12.173] (Just search for it because I can't post links.) But now it just loads up the Motorola logo and the dual core text, and then goes black. The screen is still on, but nothing happens. I am able to get into fastboot and recovery, and have tried a factory reset, but nothing works, and I am afraid to try anything else in case I ruin it even more. Can anyone help?
You can't downgrade. That is a limitation with RAZR.
If you have XT912, use Matt's utility to recover and flash stock 4.1.2.Find it in the dev section.
For XT910, use RSDLite.
From the E
(Thank you! But I might need some help on doing that. Is there a guide I can follow?) Oh never mind. The page is self-explanatory. If I need any help I can ask. Also, this is the right Matt's utility, correct?: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192467 (One more edit: Will it be unrooted after this?)
