Started to look for a way to root xt910 jb - Motorola Droid RAZR

As I know no one who is looking for a root exploit for the job update I will start. So anyone else searching for it please write me a pm as we can team up.
But I find it really important that this thread isn't messed by people saying that they are needing root rights and have lost them because of the update. Everyone knows that and it's just not helpful. I will appreciate all help full contributions.

Does not work
I've tried. It does not work on XT910 Retail.EU.

Only working on xt912 because of the older smart action version...Looks like they have fixed it that's why we can use it as we have the newer version of smart actions and as it is a systemapp we can't downgrade or change to the needed version because you need root for it...

can't we take a rooted system of someone who managed to keep his root and create a flashable zip to use and thus gain a rooted system?

You surely could there are several in the dev section, however you'll need root first to instal through a custom recovery lol
Sorry couldn't help myself :thumbup:

Yeah but it might be possible to make an working ota zip with root by using the official one. Then you Don't need custom recovery

How will you sing that rooted ota zip? Do you have moto signature which is accepted by stock recovery?

This approach will sooner give you a root canal than it will give you root. :cyclops:

I've taken all the ota firmware and updates. Can I still root?

I've kept abreast of the current state of s-off and root for the past week and have done some searches but haven't seen a concrete answer yet.
Will I still be able to apply the s-off and root method using the prescribed procedures and software considering I've downloaded all the available ota firmware?
Thanks in advance.

What about those of us who didn't install the OTA update? Can we still install it after S-OFF & root?

If the ROM you flash doesn't already have the updates baked in, which they will, then yes.

Unroot without recovery

Hello,
So whats going on is my QI wireless on my phone stopped charging. so i called verizon to get a replacement which they are overnighting tonight to me. so my question is, is there a way (step by step) to just put the Orignal Recovery Flash rom back on the phone and just lock the bootloader without resetting the phone? if so and do that. well the tamper disappear on the phone as well? ?? because they want the phone how it is. they dont want me to do a phone reset so they can see what cause the problem...
So 2nd question if i don't fix the rooting and ship the phone as is to verizon. Do you think i well get charged for rooting my phone???
Thanks!
Flash a stock rom and kernel, restore all your apps and stuff, delete any root apps, remove supreuser/SuperSU, flash the stock recovery, and relock if you feel like it. If you all that you should be good.
Or just ruu and relock your phone. As long as the problem still persists they won't care that you wiped it.

I hope the new one doesn't come updated because if so you won't be able to root. I would restore the old one and see if the wireless charging works again if so you might want to keep it if the new one is updated.

The download on that post is a zip file, which you would flash in recovery to have a stock Rom. Then you would restore your apps, remove any root apps, remove superuser, put a stock recovery on there and relock.

I don't know if it might work but it worth a shot,i searched over the net and didn't saw someone trying it.
Thanks for participant .

Look out for this we got root method for razr finally . Thx to Dan fo his osum work , donate if ya really wanna appriciate his work
Hit the thx button if i helped ya in anyways
Ya my friend has the bionic and told me about Dans work. I was like I thought he retired, but I guess thier was a jackpot of almost 1k and some change, and Dan came out the wood work and won it and throw in the xt910 with the initial bionic root as a thank you.
Now so ever one knows he is not gonna probably ever make another exploit again and he clearly said make sure future reference never lose root again and if you buy a new phone make sure it is unlocked or unlock able this way you won't have to worry about root ever again.
I been installed this root hours ago and I confirm it to work. Make sure you don't have any security app in stalled or any app that requires root as well when doing the exploit cause it will cause conflict and not work. But after trial and error I got root on the xt910 4.1.2 jb. Thank you Dan. And if anyone has a question about it pls feel free to ask.

gsm patch ?

i want to try some cdma roms on my xt 910 from canada on fido. its currently on ics running CM 10.1 but i want to upgrade to official jb and then try some cdma roms offered. i want to know if there is no gsm how can i make one or what is the way around this.
thanks for your help in advance
edit: how can i keep root if i update to jb through rsd lite using fastboot files ? is there a way to save the root coming from ics. ???
As for the root - there is no working way, you will have to root your phone once more.

delete cdt.bin from the firmware, then use rsd to flas JB. so you can keep lower cdt version, and you can root your phone easy.

Don't update. You'll lose your ability to have a real custom recovery. Just stay on MDK and root. Then you can go ahead and flash a 4.3 ROM.

Should i factory reset and root before activating the phone with verizon?
I personally would just root, install custom recovery then wipe. After that pick a rom as most have ota updates disabled. Or install titanium backup pro and freeze the update apk's (I forget the file names)

Ok, is it safe to activate and root as long as i stop the OTA update?or just root and then activate? thanks for the replies by the way
Either way you do it just do not take the ota. I always root first and install custom recovery
