I'm currently on the Verizon JB version on a GSM XT910 phone.
My question is can I use the following procedure to go back to ICS ?
1. Restore cid through BMM.
2. Reboot to AP fastboot mode.
3. Flash ICS with RSD lite.
Thanks in advance.

I've tried this about five times and I'm currently still trying to figure this out. I don't think It's going to work that way because Jelly Bean has a different kernel than ICS. I have tried flashing an ICS rom with safe strap and then flashing the fastboot ics files with rsd lite but I haven't been able to get it to flash the ICS rom.
Did you try this ?
1. Flash the fastboot files using rsd lite
2.Then enter into recovery and wipe your data and cache.
3.Power off your phone Reboot using bp tools
3. Root your device
Remember while rooting when the tool reboots your device press the vol- and vol at the same time when the phone switches off to enter in boot menu mode and reboot using bp tools mode, other wise u will see a black screen everytime you reboot.
4. Once done restore your cid using terminal emulator.
code: dd if=/sdcard/cid.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p18

As I know, everyone tells, that there is no way, to come back from JB to ICS with Mororola Razr.

Yes that's true for the Vodafone version being flashed with RSD.
I flashed the Verizon version with the cid trick.
I have this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2182674
I used this method to install it:
1. Install BMM 0.3.4 on stock ICS 4.0.4
2. Reboot to BMM, backup CID & whole system
3. Erase CID
4. Flash Kernel
4. Clear data, dalvik, cache
5. Flash ROM into System_1

For future reference, I did the razrguy method above:
1. Flash the fastboot files using rsd lite
2.Then enter into recovery and wipe your data and cache.
3.Power off your phone Reboot using bp tools
3. Root your device
Remember while rooting when the tool reboots your device press the vol- and vol at the same time when the phone switches off to enter in boot menu mode and reboot using bp tools mode, other wise u will see a black screen everytime you reboot.
4. Once done restore your cid using terminal emulator.

But step 4 didn't work for me so I used BBM to restore the cid.
you can easily restore the cid in the AP Fastboot mode, just put the cid.img file in the fastboot folder, then use this command:
fastboot flash cid cid.img
and reboot

droid rarz utility 1.7
rsd lite
fastboot.exe or any fastboot command line tool
and some patience :laugh:
1st - extract droid razr utility and find the mbmloader named " allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm"
2nd - enter fastboot and flash the mbm... here's how
( fastboot.exe flash mbmloader allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin)
3rd - reboot
( fastboot.exe reboot-bootloader)
4th - erase the Contact I.D No.
(fastboot.exe erase cid) (fastboot.exe reboot-bootloader)
of course with a erased CID you'll never be able to turn on your phone into normal mode but still can gain access to fastboot
5th - download and flash the XT912 fastboot file

Are you Encode from twit?
The problem is you flashed an ICS Rom. Try that first:
Boot into stock recovery and perform a factory reset. If it boots, ok. If it doesn't boot you should flash Jelly Bean. Just grab that one from VZW at sbf.droid-developers.org.
DON'T FLASH EU JB! Otherwise you won't be able to DOWNGRADE or switch to another region rom because it has the highest secure version compared to all others.
This is VZW JB: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_spyder/cdma_spyder_9.8.2O-72_VZW-16_1ff.xml.zip

That is what i am currently using and i am getting the boot loop back, Yeah this @EnCode_1
Before I say anything I would like to thank these great people whirleyes, dtrail, hashcode for their awesome work !!
Special thanks to my awesome friend HSD-Pilot.
We all know Motorola by mistake pushed out jb 4.1.2 ota update for the Droid Razr in U.S., but soon they pulled down the update. Now we can get that OTA working in Our GSM Razrs. All you need to do is read this thread, and if you want more help, see the video.
I am not responsible if anything Happens to your Phone.
Before we begin let me tell you all the pre-requirements:-
1. Reflash ICS in your device using the fastboot files.
2. Your device must be rooted.
3. Download all the files
3.1 mbm.bin file
3.2 Jelly Bean Kernel
3.3 Jelly Bean GSM Patch
3.4 Jelly Bean OTA
3.5 Fastboot
4. Download Terminal Emulator and Bootmenu Manager from the Play store
5. A good battery Life
Procedure
1.Backup your cid using terminal emulator.
code: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p18 of=/sdcard/cid.img (remember this code is case sensitive, copy the code correctly with proper and exact spaces in the lines)
Q. Why to do that?
A. You cannot flash kernel from different region because is protected by MOTO.
When you erase CID partition you can flash US kernel to EU device
every single one device has unique CID number so you have to backup CID partition before you erase it. If you not backup you're not able to restore your unique CID number and you can only boot your device via Power ON + Vol+ Vol- then BP Tools.
This is temporary solution, when Moto release European 4.1.2 most of us restore CID from Backup then we will flash EU kernel and EU system.
2. Then transfer it to a safe place.
3. Once done switch your phone off and then boot into ap fastboot mode.
4. Then erase your cid while your phone is in ap fastboot mode.
code: fastboot flash mbm allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cid
5. Once done reboot your phone up using bptools, switch it off again and then again go into fastboot mode
6. This time flash the jb kernel.
code: fastboot flash boot boot_jb.img
7. After flashing JB kernel reboot again using the bp tools, and when the android icon appears double tap custom recovery to select it.
8. Wipe cache, dalvik cache and data, then go to mounts and storage>mount system and then mount data.
9. Flash jb ota and and dtrail's gsm patch.
10. Then go into system keeper>install hijack, then reboot option>power off phone.
11. Then again select bp tools and reboot.
12. Profit jb
After the update, if you guys want to use some other language other than english and spanish, see this app.
If you guys want to go back to ICS, then
Video will be released when XT910 gets Official JB, so that I can show the full process at once!
1. Flash the fastboot files using rsd lite
2.Then enter into recovery and wipe your data and cache.
3.Power off your phone Reboot using bp tools
3. Root your device
Remember while rooting when the tool reboots your device press the vol- and vol at the same time when the phone switches off to enter in boot menu mode and reboot using bp tools mode, other wise u will see a black screen everytime you reboot.
4. Once done restore your cid using terminal emulator.
code: dd if=/sdcard/cid.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p18
If you guys are facing troubles in boot menu mode like the flash failure then see this thread
Link To Videos (The video was big so I divided into two parts)
Part1 (Contains Info up to step 4)
Part2 (Contains info onwards step 4)
Edit: After updating to jb, update your bmm to v0.3.4 whirleyes has nailed it again with his work, u can now boot up using power button and USB storage also works properly...
Installation For Latest Jb,i.e, US JB And Vodafone Jb On your Razr.
Before we begin let me congratulate to this fella, artur0588 for his epic work and support.
Now moving on with the procedure for updating to these version, they are pretty much the same, it's just that you have to choose which update you want to install.
I am running the US JB one currently on my phone.
Before we begin let me tell you all the pre-requirements:-
1. You need to install the latest bmm on your phone using the playsotre. If you are bricked then re flash ics using fastboot files or if you still have the latest bmm installed, follow with the procedure.
2. Rooted phone
3. Good Battery Life
4.Download all the files
4.1 Fastboot
4.2 US JB Kernel or Vodafone JB Kerne
4.3 Vodafone JB or US JB
4.4 mbm.bin file
Procedure
1. Backup your cid using terminal emulator or using bmm (go into Firmware flashing>Backup CID)
code: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk1p18 of=/sdcard/cid.img (remember this code is case sensitive, copy the code correctly with proper and exact spaces in the lines)
2. Then transfer it to a safe place.
3. Then erase your cid while your phone is in ap fastboot mode or using bmm (go into Firmware flashing>Erase CID)
code: fastboot flash mbm allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot erase cid
If you have already erased your cid and backed it up there is no need to do the above things
4. Once done switch off your phone by hitting the power button and then flash the JB kernel by booting into fastboot mode or by using bmm (go into Firmware flashing>Flash Kernel)
code: fastboot flash boot boot_jb.img
5. Then again switch off your device (no need to do if you used bmm to flash the kernel), switch on your device and use bmm selector to enter into recovery. (if you used bmm yo flash the kernel, just go back to the main screen of the recovery)
6. Once inside the recovery select the system on which you want to install (if you wanna do it on the main system then no need to that).
7. Then go into wipe and clean> wipe data,cache, dalvik cache.
8. Then flash the JB which you want.
9. After that, go into System Keeper>Install Bmm (main system)
10. Then go to reboot option> power off, Then boot up your device and select the system on which you installed the update from the boot selecter screen.
11. Profit Latest JB (remember first reboot takes about 5 mins so wait patiently)

No problem fellas, its my job to help you all.
Hey man! Nice work!
But my problem is that i don't know too much about android.
For example i don't know what you mean by "1. Reflash ICS in your device using fastboot files".
I don't kno what ap fastboot mode is, how to use the codes, what cid is,...
So could someone write a "how to for idiots"?
My RAZR is running ICS btw and i'm from germany (--> GSM).

Guys, it's clearly stated, that you have to boot over BP tools after erasing the CID.
Hello guys,
Let me preface this with the fact that I have been searching this forum for the past hour and could not find anything pertinent for my situation.
I've updated to the latest GSM OTA (the Vodafone EU one) and all was great, decided to reboot my phone and got into a bootloop. I don't have a recovery to boot from and going to be short on battery soon.
The way I see it, I'm stuck with a bricked phone until the RSD package for the OTA is released. Is that correct? am I missing anything?
Can anyone point me to a relevant thread where I can catch a break?
Cheers!

Please tell us how you fixed this, i have same problem but i already screwed it up more by trying to flash back to ics after i was stuck at boot on JB vodafone. Now i have bricked phone and i wait for Fastboot files, which we dont know when will come out
Got the same problem here
Alright, here goes.
I am not responsible to whatever happens to your phones. This process is described for the Vodafone OTA.
Also, you will lose root
I'm guessing your phones are in a constant bootloop right about now. If they are, you have to make sure you still have some battery left so that on AP Fastboot it shows battery OK. If you don't, follow the guides here to get more juice or get a 'factory cable' and charge your phone.
To download:
- Fastboot from here: http://dfiles.eu/files/bih3tmg7b
- OTA kernel (here: http://d-h.st/xat )
- The whole OTA here ON YOUR SDCARD
- original ICS RSD Image here
Process:
Extract the fastboot somewhere accessible like c:/fastboot
Extract the kernel and the original ICS files on your desktop
Copy the OTA kernel (boot_3.0.8-g7198280) to your c:/fastboot folder
Copy 'system_signed' from the original ICS archive to your fastboot folder
Open the command prompt (search for cmd.exe in your programs)
Navigate to c:/fastboot (use "cd .." to excape a folder and "dir" to list the files in a folder )
Go to AP fastboot on your phpne and do the following from the command prompt:
fastboot flash boot boot_3.0.8-g7198280.img
fastboot flash system system_signed
fastboot reboot-bootloader
Now restart your phone and enter recovery the normal way volUp+volDown + power button then select Recovery, then volUp+volDown to see the menu.
Do a factory reset
Flash the OTA (that should be on your card)
Reboot
Ta-da!
If after the whole process you get a flash failure when rebooting your phone, use this guide to get rid of that: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1634223

Well i give you thumbs up and thanks for you helping hand, however it still doesnt work gives preflashvalidation failure on system_signed flashing. If you have some more ideas it would be really nicce to try, meanwhile i think we will just have to wait for fastboot files. Verizon version for xt912 got FF already maybe we will get ours in a week or so.

For your information, I managed to unbrick my phone. Problem seemed to be my CID.IMG. After erasing it, I could enter recovery and installl JB from ext-sdcard. Now I have to use BP Tools tools to boot, because as soon as I restore CID, the device doesn't boot.
Really strange, because my phone is actually from Europe (d/a/ch), Switzerland. Maybe it's due to the fact that I switched to the chinese JB Ota leak before updating to the EU leak.
first let me say I do not have a RAZR and have searched. I have a friend who was rooted, tried to unroot and install the OTA JB update. He is now stuck in fastboot. His PC will recognize his phone but doesn't show as available like it should. (I have the Note 2 and mine shows under "computer" when connected). he's tried running the razr utility and it fails then says he's back on original version. He can get into bootloader but not into recovery. He says it back the to AP Fastboot screen and then it says boot failed. He was rooted but on stock. he tried to install the JB update both OTA and through his external SD card. can anyone help? does the razr not use odin?
I don't understand exactly your problem. Would you like to flash stock ROM with fastboot recovery? Then you have to
1) install latest Motorola driver package
2) install RSD lite tool
3) boot phone to fastboot recovery
4) connect USB to computer
5) download fastboot package of you choice, exctract it and choose included xml-file in RSD lite
6) start flash and wait until it's finished
he's stuck in a repeat boot. he told me it was a fastboot but I didn't clarify if that meant it was a regular repeat boot screen or if it was the fastboot recovery screen. I didn't realize how different the razr was from my samsung phones. sorry if I am not making sense. He's in SC and I'm in AR so I am only going on what he is telling me.
I assume that he stucks in fastboot recovery.
The only chance to get the device working again is to flash ICS stock ROM with RSD lite.

Check out 2nd video.
I would also post links to fastboot files, motorola driver package and RSD-Lite, but unfortunately I'm not allowed to do with <10 posts
By the way, are you XT910 (GSM) or XT912 (CDMA) user?
Would you like to flash ICS or JB?
Note that for JB no fastboot files exits up to now. JB can not be flashed with RSD-Lite.

The problem is that I update the Atrix with GingerBread 2.3.6 AT&T to the Leak 4.0 ICS with RECOVERY and then wanted install the gingerbread again with RSD Lite 5.6, but now the device show me the logo with this text "failed to boot 1" and then try again with RSD but the program was saying "error switching phone to bp pass through mode 0x70be" :crying:
so...
The phone is dead or is there any solution?
Thanks
turn your Atrix in Fastboot mode, flash bootloader unlock, flash recovery, 3x wipe, flash rom and addons.
For next time try to use fruitcake, not official SBF
