[Q] Which ROM

Hello
I have Motorola RAZR XT910. Used in EU, no sim/carrier lock, about 6 months ago updated OTA to 4.1.2 Android version 982.124.14.XT910.Retail.en.EU. It is GSM version.
I have few questions:
1. In forum downloads, there are 2 verions available: spyder and umts_spyder. Which one is in my EU selled Motorola Razr with XT910 name?
2. What is the latest OTA Android? 4.3? How and where I can dowload this? Phone-settings-about phone-system updates tells me that I am up to date. Which one is working great? Maybe link if there is something newer them my 4.1.2 OTA.
3. How about other ways to go 4.3 or 4.4. Installing ROMs? Going CM 10 or CM 11?
If the last one, then which one is good and stable to use?
I need, that the camera works, video works, caling works, sms works, 2G and 3G works, wifi works, bluetooth works, GPS works ang Google Maps and Syngic and Waze etc. are all usable.
And with all ROMs I can go from my 4.1.2 directly to (example, like) CM11, and it works?
If I go CM11, can always install again and again different verions what I want? Like when I am in CM11 to go back to CM11 or to 4.3 Android?
Why I think about rooting and CM? Because of the short battery usage at the moment, different disturbing adds on screen and cool apps for rooted phones.
Sorry, I am not updates/upgraded my Android before and no rooting and CM, this is new to me, and would like to ask before and maybe get some links, would like to upgrade sucessfuly the first time.
Thank you.

Yeah man keep calm
1-you are in europa use umts_spyder
2-lastest ota for razr 4.1.2 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231289
3-u can get 4.4.2 with cm 11,gummy slimkat or mookee roms in dev section (follow every step from the developer)
you can always go back to stock 4.1.2 see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47502301#post47502301
remeber only stock is full work,cm have no 1080p rec in video,no hdmi..
but the greatest thing of the razr is that you can flash at the same time 5 roms
all you have to do is get rooted and install a recovery (BMM in play store,or ss in xda theme and app forum)
So you can leave your stock rom in a safe place,without delete every thing,and try new roms in other partition system
If you are a noob use SS ( SAFESTRAP) more easy and disasterproof

I would recommend CM 11. I've been running it for over a month and it is stable (only major gripe is that you can't install apps on the SD card at the moment). New features are coming through in the nightlies as well. With regards to the previous post, 1080p is now working with the latest nightly.
Hi
Thanks.
I took the step and went to 4.4.
First, I had to root the device (original OTA 4.1.2). When rooted, then safestrap. Then files on phone and restart. Installed everything like in youtube video example. Booted up and everything worked.
So now, I am on Kitkat 4.4.2 CM11. Works great so far. No freezes, it is quite quick.
---
Sometimes I see, that when I press screen off button, screen turn itself back on again for like 0,5 to 3 seconds and then it shuts screen off again. The last part-my finger is removed from the on/off button. Sometimes it does this, sometimes not. Strange.
---
But my biggest concern is battery. About 85 to 90 % of battery drain is by CyanogenMod Account, and android os like 5% and screen 4%.
Why so much? Still I have to charge like once a day. I thought, when this account isn't draining so much juice from battery, maybe it last like 48 hours with one charge.
when I open account, then CPU is 0s, awake 0s, but GPS is taking all the battery. Is it normal? Or there is something wrong? I don't need location finder from cuanogenmod web site from PC.
Under settings-accounts there is an option, that delete CM account. What it does then, when I delete it or log out? Phone stops working?

The best/most stable ROM threads are not permitted on xda. Please refrain yourself from asking that.

The screen flicker is a persistent bug related to the display drivers. You can disable the lock animation and it should be fine.
If you don't want to use the CM account, you can remove it. Also if your battery drain is cause of GPS.Keep it to Battery Saver mode or turn it off completely and use it only when you need.

[Q] Favorite Apps or Camera option missing from Mutiple Widgets screen

Hi all
In the stock Samsung Jelly Bean 4.3 OS I have seen many folks talk about how to use the following option....
Settings - My Device - Lock Screen - Lock Screen Widgets - Favourite Apps or Camera
but I don't have that option on my Galaxy Note 2 at all after updating to Jelly Bean 4.3 (N7100XXUEMK9, which I think is the official version for my Note 2 , living in the UK)
Can anyone else please check if they have the above option on their stock 4.3 installation? I would really like to be able to make use of this feature and loads of people are talking about how to use it so it must be that a lot of people have it on their Note 2.
What I don't understand is the reason why it's not on mine. Is it....
- wrong firmware
- faulty installation (I have tried it twice now)
- simply not meant to be available on UK phones on 4.3
If anyone else with a Note 2 running any of the stock 4.3 versions can check to see if they have it (or not), and what location their firmware is, it would help me out.
Thanks a lot.

Back button is not responsve after custom rom CM11

hello,
I recently flashed my Canadian Rogers Mega to CM11 rom May 12, 2014 build. Everything works but the back button is very lagging, almost not responsive to any touch. It is quite annoying but wonder if others have the same problem.
Thanks.

[Q] How to get Android Wear to work with CM based roms?

I have an asus zen watch and I am unable to get it to sync with the android wear manager with any combination of CM/AOSP roms from either 4.4.4 or 5.X. Has anyone got it working outside stock LG roms?
It works just fine for me. I have an LG G watch and I was able to pair it with the wear manager. I am running the latest CM 12 ROM. Try wiping and installing the latest ROM.
Same got the smartwatch 3 and it works fin try factory reseting the watch. I have to do that everytime I change my rom.
