Yeah ya can flash different region of kernels but for that ya need to erase ya cid because motorola has locked the bootloader. Look out in the forum fo erasing cid and restore once ya want to go back to your region update
Edit : Don't mind i just wanna know why ya wanna flash EU karnel if the update is already available fo Verizon
Hit the thx button if i helped ya in anyways

Install OTA Rootkeeper in PlayStore. It backups the root. And you can unroot directly in the app. Then, you can install the OTA.

Thanks for links. I will look into it
Update:
This fastboot image contains an upgraded "Secure Version".
Secure Version is 3, same like any other ICS leaks. Which mean you can't downgrade back to GB.
Customer id is 4 (China / India / Japan)

There is no method to root it. Only if you upgrading from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4 by OTA Root Keeper. This is SBF so if you flash it you'll lose ROOT.

Could you please upload it to mediafire or dropbox? That 115.com download speed is killin' me!
I'm just a consumer, I usually don't upload things.
Why would you want to install this?
Do you have a chinese version xt910? If no, better don't mess with it.
In fact I have LATAM RAZR but my current ROM is previous Chinese ICS leak which version is 6.7.2_GC-120-175; I've flashed it with mmcblk replacement - and that's why I'm asking someone to share. I know what I gonna mess with. Moreover, there would be guys who will try it sooner or later for sure, so the earlier we share it the faster we get some feedback.
宜しくお願い致します。

Again, this fastboot upgrade your cdt main secure version to 3.
Previous chinese leak was 2. That's why you can revert back to GB.
While i'm not an expert, i guess it will be hard to go back to LATAM after flashing this.
You know your phone better..
Well this is interesting
I'll keep my eyes on this thread

What I know works is fastbooting a 4.0.3 boot.img, booting into BP Tools from the boot menu, rooting there, then fastbooting back to 4.0.4 boot.img. There isn't a 4.0.4 root method at this time other than this. So find a 4.0.3 FB file and use that boot.img.
Isn't that's how older leak rooting method works?

Unfortunately, there's no macthing 403 kernel with secure version 3 & cid 4 / 7.
You guys that have xt912 just lucky, because you have a 403 kernel leak (secure version 3 cid 2 too be specific).
2whirleyes: Again, no need to tell me that. Let me suppose you think I don't know about problems with downgrading? You're wrong if you think so. OK keep it but don't "warn" me once again, please.
Am I the only one who wouldn't go back to so-called "stable" GB after flashing ICS leak? Previous Chenese leak I currently running on my device is MUCH BETTER than any GB I've ever had. And after all, 2.3.6 upgrades for LATAM RAZRs were rolled out about a month ago - after all other regions. Who wants to wait till August - rise you hand up high, please.

Just wait for someone to upload it for you.

I found this post today in the earlymorning and started download. The speed was too slow, so I left it and went for job. If the download is completed, I will upload this leak to sendspace... But no promises...

Use fastboot to flash boot.img and it's OK .
Remember:
DO NOT FLASH THE NEW CDT.BIN !
OR YOU MAY CANNOT DOWNGRADE OR ROOT !
So U.S.A. got jb, China got jb, hope EU will receive soon.

If i'm not wrong it mean to erase the cid. Or to replace it "dd if=/sdcard/cid.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p18"

This is a FASTBOOT not an OTA
Maybe this helps:
You can try to open the USB DEBUGGING and install an 4.0.4 kernel
Then the phone can be black screen but you can root as usual
At last flash the new kernel from fastboot
Profit!
EDIT:
Tested by chinese users : Success!
Or does the region make a difference? If so, why? I couldn't gather a definite answer to this.
Yeah ya correct ya can't flash different region kernels unless ya don't have root excess and ya have not erased ya cid .
Cid is customer identification no. And every mobile having an unique cid , as ya know we having locked bootloader hence we can't flash different region kernels .
There is only method to erase that cid and make a backup of ya cid ( keep it safe ) , for this ya need root excess
Thanks!!

So it's possible to flash my phone with jelly bean from any region, but I need to go through the steps of erasing and backing up my CID first in order to do so?
Which of the stock JB ROMS would work on my phone without having to do this?

Well, I do see that the Canadian and Brazil ones are considered "LATAM" (which I assume meant Latin America...even though canada is far from latin america)....
But mine is Puerto Rican, so, those wouldnt work?
IThat is retail and your is branded .

I actually flashed the Fido firmware through RSD and rooted it since I was never able to root the Rogers one. If you would have to choose from one of the two, I'd go with the Fido one.
Awesome. I appreciate all of your help! Out of curiosity, are ALL of the Americas considered one region? Or is that undetermined?
Also, I read that Claro announced that my phone would indeed be getting the JB update. Would I still get this update even if I'm using the phone in the US on Straight Talk (same parent company lol) ?

I believe you would have to wait till someone uploads the official release (if/whenever it's released) and flash it through RSD (or recovery if someone makes a Rom out of that update), as being on a Fido or Rogers firmware would not allow your phone to find the Claro update. I'm pretty much in the same boat as you.
Thanks.... but what if I choose to stay on my stock fw? Would I have to manually update or woulda I get an update automatically?

Why didn't att just play nice and update to V3? Instead they update To V4 so I can't flip flop between t-mobile firmware and there's. Does root still work? On the other hand, I can flash Verizon firmware I guess.

I can't root, looks like it's back to the drawing board. It figures this happen as soon as I feel it necessary to root my device......
I advise everyone to not take any OTAs after the first August patch so you can still be able to root and flash roms. It isn't a problem for me since I wasn't planning on rooting this phone again anyways..

@raremind couldn't root on BL4. It's unfortunate how we can't root on API2, but if the developers are willing to find out a new way to gain root access on API2, then it wouldn't be the end of the world for anyone who wants the latest OTA but still want root.
