I am pretty sure you can't flash a new rom to change device region - if you try it you will probably brick your device - to get updates all you have to do is RSD back to stock, then download the update - same with ICS.
I am an XT912 user and I am having trouble finding the right versions and links (it gets quite confusing from a single-carrier viewpoint!).
I need to know:
XT910 Retail Europe - What version of GB does one need to upgrade to the latest 4.0.4 leaked ICS, and does that version of GB have fastboot files?
XT910 Retail China - What version of GB does one need to upgrade to the latest 4.0.4 leaked ICS, and does that version of GB have fastboot files?
Links: for GB Fastboot files to get to a version that's upgradeable to the latest ICS 4.0.4 leaks for both China and Europe XT910.
I hope someone can help me out, it'd be good for my research
EDIT: The ICS updates I was looking for OTA zips, not fastboot files.
EDIT 2: Found Europe XT910 FB and OTA.
My current Motorola System version is 65.1.40.XT910.MERetail.en.06 <- Gingerbread
I had purchased this from Middle East. I would like to change my ROM so that my phone will be identical to a brand new phone purchased from India. After reading some posts, it seems gingerbread version of Asia ROM is Blur_Version.65.1.40.XT910.AsiaRetail.en.03
Also after reading the first post on this thread -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1840296
Europe, Asia, PSHAsia and ME shares same region signature verification (ODD: you can flash any of the ROMs between it)

My question is whether I can flash the asia version over ME version using the normal flash method? And if yes, once I do it, will my motorola give me OTA update notifications meant for an Asia ROM? More specifically, ICS has been released for India Roms, but not on ME roms, will I get ICS once I change my region to Asia?
I am not very used to Motorola ROM flashing. Have only used samsung phones in the past. Hence need a little clarification.
Thanks
Yes to all the questions. You can flash Asia ROMs and you should get update when Motorola release it.

As ya saying ya razr system version is from Canada (rogers.en.cn) , most probably ya can't flash Asian version fastboot on it unless ya don't erase ya cid .
Motorola had locked the bootloader to downgrade or flashing different region fastboot .
Ya can even use rogers.cn fastboot files in Pakistan without any issues .
Just look out for the appropriate fastboot files and flash in forum , remember once ya upgrade there is no way to go back yo ics.
Hit the thx button if i helped ya in anyways

the only firmwares that will work on that phones are Rogers and LATAM (Latin America) fastboot files. can't use asian, EU, or american (they're not even GSM).
if you simply want to get rid of Rogers stuff, you can:
1. root, install Titanium Backup, remove the bloatware, change the boot animation.
2. flash LATAM generic firmware. find them in RAZR development forums.
just remember, once you go JB, you can't go back to ICS.

yes, only LATAM as far as i know. u can try different ones, like EU or Asia, but u gotta tweak the file abit (stuff about changing CID or something).
XT910's firmwares: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_spyder/list.php
but again, check out RAZR"s development forum (this is RAZR QA forum) for updated list.
find LATAM Retail and they're mostly ICS (if not all). the JB ones are posted in the sticky in the RAZR Dev forum.
guide: google "RAZR xt910 fastboot". super easy. use RSD Lite.
Root on JB: yes, but through Linux only.
LATAM is LATAM. Rogers is Rogers. Fido is Fido. wth is your question supposed to mean? LOL - if you flash your Rogers phone with LATAM, it will be identical as if you buy that phone in, say, Argentina....
there's no "generic". there is a DEV firmware out there, but its untested for XT910 and not recommended. LATAM retail is as generic as you can get.
also, my Rogers JB now has better battery than Rogers ICS or CM10.1. only D-Trail's D-Wiz ICS can beat it. it just takes a while in JB for the phone to recognize your usage.
