I have a Droid Razr Maxx and my System version is 673.94.324.XT910.MERetail.en.06 running Android 4.0.4 (ICS)
On checking for Updates, it says my phone is up to date.
Motorola site says this phone will remain on ICS and hence I want to change my region to EU where JB has been released for retail version.
If I want to flash my system to JellyBean retail version say Britan EU from this link, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231289
what is the correct sequence of flashes to be performed?
Should I first go to ICS of EU region then go from ICS to JB, or can I go directly to Jelly Bean.
I have never flashed my Motorola Razr Maxxx and am not rooted. Can anyone please give me pointers to where I should start?
Once I flash to a different region, would I receive OTA updates for that region ROMS?
Just flash it on top of your current Rom. No need to go to EU ICS first.
Updates for the RazR? I'll bet there won't be any Updates anymore.

Thanks for the reply.
However one more question: My phone is not rooted and when I go to AP Fastboot mode, I get the following message
Code:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
0A.74
eMMC Info: Size 16G
To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down
Device is LOCKED. Status Code:0
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
My Worry is the line stating that Device is LOCKED.
Should flashing using RSDLite work without any additional steps?
Of course it shows Device is locked > That's your Bootloader! It's always locked on the XT910 This has nothing to do with RSD.
same
hay
kindly guide this method more because i am also have same s/w.
i have rooted razar maxx and using safestrape 3.11

I successfully flashed my ROM to JellyBean en.EU (UK Retail version) -> 982.124.14.XT910.Retail.en.EU from ICS 673.94.324.XT910.MERetail.en.06
The steps I followed were as follows:
1. Take backup of your SD Card as this flash erases everything from internal SD Card and make sure battery level is at least 80%.
2. Turn phone off and remove your Sim and external SD card (Just to be safe)
3. Go to boot menu (While in power down, press and hold both volume keys, then press power button)
4. Scroll to AP Fastboot mode using volume down key. Select the AP fastboot mode using volume Up key.
5. Start RSD Lite 6.0 in computer (Make sure you have motorola drivers installed)
6. Connect your phone to computer using USB cable (In AP Fastboot mode)
7. Select the downloaded AP Fastboot file (Retail British is what I used) from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231289
8. Click on Start
9. Sit back and relax for about 10 mins when flashing will be complete and your phone will reboot automatically.
More information of tools can be found out in this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539192
Remember: Once you flash JB, there is no way to go back to ICS. But I am loving Jelly Bean and Google Now. Phone feels smoother.
Hit Thanks if I helped you.

Yes, you will lose root by flashing. But there is a new linux based exploit for rooting again which i have not tried but seems to work for others -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2257137
If your current ROM version is Retail (i.e not locked to a specific carrier like vodafone), you should only install Retail version.

I accidently selected USA band on RAZR XT912 and it blocked all GSM signals . I was travelling so i applied the JB OTA update over JB and it bricked my RAZR .
How do i unbrick it . While upgrading to JB i read that there is no way to go back to ICS
Bricked my RAZR after selecting USA Band
http://batakang.com/ftp/?dir=DROID_RAZR
Place tho JB OTA on your sdcard
Download the last file in the list at the above link
Place phone in Fastboot mode
Pwr/vol+/vol-
Vol- to AP Fastboot
Vol+ to select
Run the .bat file in the extracted download
When complete phone will fail to load
Power down and use pwr/vol+/vol- again and select recovery
Apply JB update again
Unfortunately there's no way I'm aware of to go back to ICS but the above file will get you to a state where your phone will accept the update.
Razr blade is on the same FTP server if you want root
Credits go to mattlgroff and @djrbliss (think I spelled those right)

This solution works perfectly for unbricking Motorola RAZR XT912 .
-Selected USA Band---> signals blocked
-Applied OTA update of JB over existing JB ---->bricked my device
-Followed the above instructions--->everything working perfectly
Possibly bricked??
So I basically did the same thing. I manually upgrated to the JB OTA and my radio did not work at all. So I tried this fix and when I go to run this through stock recovery it just fails. So I tried to run it through Boot Manager on my phone but whenever I select it the screen just goes blank. Any idea's??? Im not feeling to good about this, please help if you can. Thank you in advance.
Hello am having the same issue I changed the Base band settings to USA band now I can't use a sim card on it . Hence, the signal is lost completely no network at all.
Am aware am suppose to flash the radio
Fastboot flash radio radio.img
I just wanna know the step by step procedures in accomplishing such task or any other method preferably that would yield the same end result.
Thank you

Hi all, first post here. I've done some searching and I apologize if I this is a repost or a silly question, but here goes:
I am currently rooted on 4.1.2 JB. I was rooted on 4.0.4 ICS and ran the OTA update, which worked fine, but I was only half-rooted, so I unrooted and rerooted. I forget which tool I used but I can look tonight (I'm at work at the moment). Full root with SuperSU and everything was working just dandy.
This morning, I was dorking around with Font Installer and after a reboot, it got caught on the "Eye" boot screen and wouldn't move. I did the <power+volume up+volume down>, held until the screen went blank, released and repeated to get to the bootloader screen. I went to recovery and cleared the cache partition several times, then rebooted. Same thing happened, so I repeated the process and did a data wipe/factory reset twice, then rebooted. Again, it got caught on the eye. I reset, then went into AP Fastboot and turned the phone off from there. It stayed off so I plugged it into the wall and it charged like normal (showed the blue battery). The AP Fastboot screen looks like this:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
xxxx <--don't remember the numbers here, but they were normal (I was an idiot and left my phone at home)
To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0
Battery OK
OK to program
Transfer Mode:
USB Connected <--I had it plugged up to my computer at the time
To my knowledge, this is a completely normal AP Fastboot screen, so no issues there.
I have the update.zip on my SD card for the 4.0.4 OTA update, but that clearly won't work. My thinking is that I could download the Droid Razr Utility for JB (MattLGroff) as well as the OTA JB update file, then flash it manually with a full data wipe. However, I know that this update is designed for phones coming from 4.0.4 ICS as the update is referred to as 6.16.211... (coming from that version). Will I still be able to flash the OTA update, even though I am already running 98.72.16 (OTA JB)
I saw on another site that I could instead flash a custom ROM (which I have zero experience with), or I could do this:
I have two solutions for u:
1. flash your phone with any rom you want.
2. find a file named "DroidSansFallback.ttf" on another phone(/system/font)
or rename a correct ttf file to DroidSansFallback.ttf.
download the attachment, use your file replace the
system/font/DroidSansFallback.ttf in the zip file.
rename the zip file to update.zip
reboot to recovery to install teh update.zip.
(or you can use a recovery tools to install it)
This was from here on XDA and the exact same thing happened to the user (rebooted with Font Installer and bricked). In the post from above, he attached the DroidSansFallback.ttf file, which I downloaded. However, I am unsure on what he means to replace the system/font/DroidSansFallback.ttf in the zip file. The OP was running 2.3.5 GB and the links posted by a previous user took him to some fastboot files for the GB firmware. But I'm still not sure what meant by replacing the system/font/DroidSansFallback.ttf in the zip file.
If I'm not able to use the OTA JB update file to reflash JB, is there a JB fastboot file that I should use instead? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Run a Google search for "xt912 jelly bean root" and it should be the first link that pops up. The link is entitled "DROID RAZR Utility XT912 Jellybean -- Windows + Mac + ...
I can't post a link just yet (not enough posts).
This utility includes the Dan Rosenberg's RAZR 4.1 Jellybean exploit (RAZR Blade), which is option 3. It will require you to go into Smart Actions and enable the battery saver profile at some point during the rooting process. Completely seamless. Dan Rosenberg's standalone utility is what I used to unroot/reroot when I first updated to JB, then I used Matt's utility to reflash stock OTA JB (.16) with a full data wipe, then root.
To get root on Jb you have to use this: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/6935-rootwindows-razr-blade-droid-razr-41-jb-root-exploit/
That's Dan Rosenberg's 4.1 root utility (RAZR Blade), which can be used as a standalone rooting tool. However, Matt's utility tool includes the RAZR Blade exploit in the script, so you can root as well as flash OTA firmware. Both will root, but only Matt's will flash the firmware.
Ot did not work on me .. I tried to work with it so many times but still no hope . I think i need to wait for working root exploit

Working root exploit for what? If it's for 4.1 JB on the Razr with OTA firmware, the RAZR Blade exploit works just fine.

I can confirm this DOES work!!! Tried it on my Wind RAZR V. It performs perfectly. Thanks so much for the tutorial!
Basically what you're doing is flashing XT885's Jelly Bean but then putting back the XT886's radio from ICS.
Is there any way to go back to stock XT886 ROM or to reflash XT885 ICS ROM with AWS radio? The thing is that the ICS ROM for XT885 that works with AWS (the one included in the thread) has support for Vietnamese language which I really want on this phone. However after updating to Jelly Bean it removes the Vietnamese language.
I tried flashing both the XT885 and XT886 files in RSD Lite and both of them fail with error "Failed flashing process. 5/17 flash cdt.bin_signed -> Phone returned FAIL"
Any help?

I'm sure that it's failing due to trying to go to a lower software version. Without an unlocked bootloader you won't be able to downgrade firmwares.
install Jellybean(4.1.2) on XT886 (ONLY XT886)!
Hi,
After installing JellyBean, my xt886 lost internet connection. Dubbing APN settings not helped.

After i installed this i lost my data connection. Calls worked but no internet. I figured out by the end of the day i had to add a APN since there were none. Also there were some initial settings that popped up regarding the sim when i first powered up after a successful install. Maybe something to do with that too but i know for sure it was the APN

First of all, you must be on a Windows PC. Then you can upgrade you device to the official JB 4.1 Motorola firmware. There is no official JB 4.2 from Motorola for our devices. BEWARE there is a chance of bricking your device if something goes wrong. Do it on your own risk.
First you have to download some stuff.

Then follow this tutorial and fastboot upgrade your device to JB 4.1
1.Find the appropriate JB 4.1 Fastboot file for your device from here

or here

(BEWARE you will brick your device if you use a wrong Fastboot file)
2.Rename it to something like 9.8.2O-124_SPUL-17_Claro.xml.zip (short name without gaps, because RSD has a limit of name characters)

4.Install RSD Lite
5.Run RSD Lite
6.At Filename click the button and browse file XML Fastboot Image you downloaded
7.Turn off the device
8.Press and hold Volume[+] + Volume[-] + Power buttons at the same time until an option come up
9.Choose AP fastboot
10.Connect Razr to PC/laptop
11.Wait until it is recognized by RSD Lite and all its components are installed on Windows
12.Click Start
13.Wait until the process is done (do NOT turn off the PC or disconnect the USB, this will brick your device)
14.Done
After that you have to root your device in order to install custom 4.1 or 4.2 or 4.3 or 4.4 ROMs.
In order to root follow this tutorial

Anyway, click Thanks if I helped you
Resolved
Thanks for all the help. Issue has been resolved.
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.

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!
