Hi,
I recently purchased a Droid X2 for use with Tracfone. I installed CM10 Alpha3 (20130112).
1) I installed the modified bootstrap (system recovery) .apk from Rootjunk.com named "Boot Strap Recovery patched for cm7, cm9, cm10".
When I run it, the phone remains in bootloop mode. I have to remove the battery to start up the phone. Is there a different bootstrap file to use?
2) The speaker volume is low. I read something about a kernel that needs to be installed. Where is this file and how do you install it?

I rooted my phone using the bonic bootstrap for my droid razr. Although everthing worked out correctly I want to install the razr bootstrap so I can backup and restore my phone.
Does anyone know how I should go about installing the razr bootstrap and deleting the bionic bootstrap?
You should just be able to follow this...let the OP verify however.

can any one else help me with this? i followed zedomax and installed the bionic bootloader to root. i would like to install the modded version for the razr
Are you referring to boostrap recovery app?? There is no access or root of the bootloader as it's locked up.
After you rooted your Razr did you install the Bionic bootstrap recovery? If you're refering to the recovery app then uninstall the Bionic bootstrap app, delete the clockwork mod file on your sdcard and then install the Razr bootstrap. I think this should update clockwork (if it's different) and then place a new clockwork folder on your sdcard.
I am interested in installing a custom rom for my droid razr.i am in the position that i cant get a custom recovery to run.firstly tried razr boot strap,worked just fine until i installed safe strap.i uninstalled razr boot strap first.in safe strap have followed the install instructions,the phone gets stuck in a black screen indefinetly.so removed that and install razr boot strap again,installs okay but just hangs up on the motorola logo.how do i get to install a custom recovery so i can install a custom rom.
maybe the answer is to erase all software on phone and start again? any ideas.
Hi All,
New to the XDA forums and newly rooted my Droid Razr Maxx on 2.3.6.
I've followed the instructions for installing the CWM Recovery as highlighted here, but am running into troubles. I have moved both the .apk and .zip onto SD, installed the .apk but when doing the reboot it reboots normally and doesn't give me an option to install from .zip. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong here?

Find the safe strap apk for the RAZR online, download, install, install recovery.
DROID RAZR MAXX
You access CWM recovery from within the app tray. Click on the Razor Bootstrap icon, click the Bootstrap Recovery, get success and then click the Reboot Recovery.
Thanks for the help guys I was able to get it working using the Safestrap.apk
Any suggestions on good ROMs for the Razr? And guides? I'm kind of new to this scene, I just kept my old Droid 2 stock and slow.
New Droid Razr MAXX.
OTA Updated to ICS. Rooted with Droid RAZR Utilities 1.40. Installed Bootstrap and recovery, made a backup. Was looking to install a ROM, saw one saying I needed Safestap. Uninstalled Bootstrap, installed Safestrap using Utilities 1.40. Ran Safestrap, Installed recovery, rebooted, enabled Safe-system. Rebooted. I have a black screen, nothing happens when I push and hold any buttons. I have a brick as far as I can tell. Any suggestions? What did I do wrong?
Ok. Holding key combos got it to reboot with vol-down and power. If I let it go past the safeboot splash without hitting anything it goes black.
Went back into recovery, disabled safe-system, reboot and and it works ok.
How can I get into safe-system and flash a this rom? Did I do something wrong in the process?
Use 1.81 utility to flash stock 211 and start over. Install superuser/root and busybox then install safe strap and install recovery. From there make a backup and then enable safe mode. Use rom that you put on external SD card and install. Wipe data before booting new rom.

Hey guys so I'm trying to root and flash a custom ROM on my friend's x2. I have it rooted and i used the bootstrap method. When i boot into recovery it comes up with some severly outdated CWM.. I get into ROM manager and flash the newest recovery but whenever i boot back into recovery it still goes to the outdated one.. I wanted to push the recovery.img via adb/fastboot but can't for the life of me find JUST the .img, it's always a flashable .zip for some reason. I've read a hundred tutorials on how to do this but no one really has had issues with this specific thing of course.. not that i've seen anyway.
Thoughts?
In other words, how do you flash the latest CWM and BOOT to it? Whatever methods i know of obviously dont work for the x2
The Droid X2 only uses one recovery and that is the bootstrap recovery. There is no other recovery that will work for it. So that "outdated" recovery is all you get.
EDIT: be carefull with ROM manager. Some stuff may mess up your phone. Dont try and use it to flash a rom or anything. The Droid X2 has a locked bootloader so the only tools it has are custom made tools that work only for the DX2.
EDIT 2: Also, the droid X2 requires certain steps that other phones may not need. So maybe tell us where you are right now. What version of android is it on, what ROM you want to flash, etc.
Just download bootstrap recovery for the droid x2 (search in the forum) and download it, we are limited to what our phone can use because we are on a locked bootloader, also if you want to get into bootstrap recovery again after you install a rom like cm10 or cm7 you have to download bootstrap recovery cm7 I hope I helped :fingers-crossed:
