droid razr maxx xt912 4.1.2 - Motorola Droid RAZR

hi! id like to unlock/root my phone. i tried the razr blade one and i had no luck

Have you given Matt's Utility a shot? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192467 That will walk you through the root process and all. Not sure about unlocking.

i got it to work. thanks for all the help!!!! one more question i want to overclock the phone is their any recommended advice on what programs to use?

If you install CyanogenMod 11 (and possibly earlier versions) you can use the built-in performance settings.

I just traded my galaxy nexus for a razr maxx today. I don't really care about down grading from ics cuz I know eventually the razr will get and I had the itch to move to another device.

Good timing, Verizon started to send out the OTA today, but there could be 2 weeks where it's distributed to everybody. :laugh:

Congrats! Wait a week or two and you will have a great phone gbread maxx is nice...but I have ics leak 211 on mine and its great! Enjoy
Looks like the previous owner rooted the phone but left the stock rom on here. Will still get the OTA or will be blocked?

It will lose root, but the OTA will go through fine.
Cool thanks. I really don't think I want to root this thing.

I recommend unrooting with Matt's utility just in case. You will get the update, but there could be issues. That is not the case most of the time, but it sometimes happens. I think it was a DROID pro update that messed up rooted phones. You should be fine though...

CWM for droid razr running 4.1.2?

Hey all, needing a little help.
I recently rooted my droid razr after updating to jelly bean. I want to start flashing some custom roms, but I can't find a cwm version compatible. Anyone have any info? Is TWRP good and is there a version for my 4.1.2 razr?

I've tried a few ROMs for my xt912 on Verizon. They all have ups and downs. I'm currently trying Rage 2.8. It seems okay.
Cm10.1 is my favorite so far.
Pacman is a nice ROM and has lots of settings and customizations.
Liquid isn't too bad.
It all depends on what your preferences are. Just install safe strap and then follow install instructions and try out a few of them til you find your comfort zone.

Root

No matter if I root on my Mac, or a PC, the root cannot find the device. I'm using a friend's Droid Razr when my Galaxy is getting repaired, but I need root for it to work on AT&T. Please help with a method. On PC I did install drivers.
So... has something changed I thought the RAZR, RAZR maxx, and droid 4 was unable to use us gsm?

Correct on Verizon ones, they are CDMA only. heard it both ways on the global razrs, but have never cared to look into it myself.

Droid RAZR Maxx Root with Latest Firmware?

I see that 98.72.165 looks like the latest and greatest version of the Droid RAZR. I'm looking for a used XT912 (Maxx) that I would like to get but I wanted to know if it comes with this version will I be able to root it? Sorry for the noob question.

I think you can still root it using matt's utility. See http://rootzwiki.com/topic/104161-recovery-locked-safestrap-recovery-v365-2013-11-13/
