Having root issues has this happened to anyone? - Motorola Droid RAZR

I rooted my RAZR using doom lord method which works amazingly well. Attempted the ics leak and some how bricked my phone deleting a bootstrap file which sent me into boot loop. Downloaded the fast boot files and got back to 173. Got the ics leak installed and working and restored root with voodoo no problem. Everything worked fine until yesterday I updated to su elite and lost root access and restore in voodoo doorkeeper is causing force close and it says device isn't rooted. I tried restore through terminal emulator but access denied. How can I achieve root again running pics leak? Fast boot and start all over?

Why did you update the SU? I guess it was running well before?
I remember there's a root method working for ICS in the forums.
Edit: Maybe you can try this if you have GSM-Razr. I don't know if this will work on CDMA version.

Six axis controller wasn't requesting access so I though it was out dated. I tried the ics root method but it kept failing saying everything already exists....unless their is another method. I unrooted with doom unroot then tried the pics root but also failed

Try the CASUAL by AdamOutler. It's here, somewhere in XDA.

Flash your razr again. Wipe data/cache and factory reset then root it again.

Tried reflashing fast boot files with red lite but battery died on last step and phone wont turn on to charge so now I gotta try to make a cable......

For me it worked to charge in fastboot mode just with normal cable, no factory cable. I just waited until it has been shown „battery ok“

[How to]Root your .629

My friend found the way to root OTA .629!
Make sure your phone working on .629,
1.Flash repacked .608 sbf
http://db.tt/xj6oos8G
(Never Try Full .608 SBF !!!)
2 .Download tool PetesMotorolaRootTools or SuperOneClick extract all and run.(Just like rooting .608）
Note : - FIRST - Please Enable USB Debugging , Then connect cable for usb type Charge only
3.Install app otarootkeeper(Can be found in Play Store,it's free),backup su, unroot.
4.Reboot to Motorola Recovery, Wipe, apply .629 OTA update.zip,reboot.
5.install otarootkeeper app again,restore su
Check your device, it should rooted
ATTENTION: Reapply .629 update is very important, when you flashed our repacked .608 sbf, your device is working on a unstable hybrid rom
Here's where my friend posted:

Failed for me... First flash failed, everything else has followed that... Unable to root with SuperOneClick, reflashing with upadet.zip hasn't give any different output...
Oh, yes, Droid works, as I haven't done anything...
Are you sure you follow all step?

Rooted.
But, now my GSM network keeps failing as Airplane mode keeps checking on/off every few seconds (interesting enough, wifi still works without problems)...
This works great, I was enable to flash the file unisng RSD Lite and after that root using zergrush without any problem. Only slight problem it that wi-fi dont work at the moment but will update when i flash it back to .629 .

Yes, no help from it... still the same problem.
UPDATE: For all with some sort of problems (!), blindly follow guide from link, for RESTORING device... apply 608, apply repacked 629, (IMPORTANT) full wipe in recovery, root, unroot, flash update, re-root. Works like a charm, all radios are full to go!
Any roms work with this? I tried cm7 and got stuck at red m screen. Had to start all over. Anyone have sucess with a rom after on rooted 629?
Edit: cm9 worked after using droid 2 bootstrap.

Now, rooted, I'm finally able to delete all those stupid Verizon bloatware (I'm not on Verizon, even more, I CAN'T use Verizon, I'm not in U.S.!) - got around 10-15% on speed (some things apparently are in startup and slowing the phone down).
Other thing, before this update, I had some minor and occasional problems with touch - like ghosts or something, after unlocking touch started to do weird stuff, opening apps by it-self, moving icons across the screen - no more, it works great (for now). This might be because of fresh and full install and wipe (yes, it's a hassle to do it, to install all apps again, set them up... but, it's kinda good solution...).
Enjoy yourself

[Q] Issues after .181 Update?

My Droid Razr was rooted with motofail and I had no problems until the .181 update. My device lost root (which I was expecting) so I attempted to reroot. The problem is, it will not reroot using motofail, Utility, or DooMLord. Superuser is still on my phone, and cannot be uninstalled (as if stock), but does not have root access. Suggestions?

I rooted before and after the update with Motofail with no problems. Strange, it was the same circumstance as you. The update took root away but left SU on th device. Sorry I don't have a suggestion but I wanted to let you know it can be done.

.210 ICS Will not Root HELP

I went from .181 and jumped to .210 ICS. I used rootkeeper and tried to restore the root. I already had the superuser.apk installed and when i used rootkeeper it said root was restored, but when i use root apps it does not work and the rootkeeper also tells me i do not have root access.
WHAT GIVES?
Sorry I can be more help. Did you uninstall super user and re load? I know there is a manual ADB push method that I used but you would have to use the search.
i tried uninstalling it and it wont let me

Hmmm. It is probably installed as a system app. Maybe you didn't update su binary before root backup? Try temp unroot and root with RAZR utility.

Just use matts utility 1.7, it rooted .211 for me with no problem

Superuser app still here after losing root

Hi, I have a xt912 Droid RAZR Maxx using 4.0.4 ICS and I used the root method that was provided here. I then went root app crazy and also installed the superuser.apk file with the Elite. I went and got clockwork mod touch installed after that, and when I did, the phone would say something like "system is upgrading" and after a while the custom front screen wouldn't work anymore and I lost root access. I since then did a FDR and everything except superuser left. I tried recovering the backup using recovery in fast boot, but it isn't showing as a choice from CWM. I used root checker and it says my phone is not rooted yet I can't uninstall the app only disable it. How do I take it off so I may re-root this phone later? I also used a backup from Titanium pro+root and it won't let me recover from that. Any help would be appreciated.

[Q] Root/Superuser Problem Jelly Bean

Hi,
I updated my XT910 to 982.124.14 jelly bean. I protected the root with Voodoo and after the update completed i restored root. Now superuser behaves like my phone isn't rooted(in voodoo says it is).I've tried to update the SU biniares and it fails in gaining root access. I can't even get root permissions to any of my apps. Any solutions?
Thank you

Did you have rebooted after you restore root?
Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
Yes. Strange thing is that only voodoo recognises root. Everything else seems to believe the phone is unrooted. I've tried the terminal and when i press the order su it says permission denied. I've tried superuser update fix and it doesn't seem to find a problem.

I presume that you didn't update the binaries after performing a clean ics install via rsd lite and before installing jb.
I made the exact mistake with my razr and i still remain unrooted....
I believe there isn't a solution to this problem.
