You can flash official JB with RSD Lite via computer/laptop.
About KK,root the phone,install custom recovery like Safestrap or BootMenuManager and happy flashing.

Thanks again for the fast reply.
I've rooted the phone and installed CWM on it.
Flashed KK rom and the phone just crashed.
I needed to recover it using RSD Lite.
Then I tried to compare the process to my Motorola Photon's process, and realized that the Razr's bootloader is locked. So how will any custom recovery manage to install a different kernel rom on the device (without unlocking the bootloader) ?
Thank you very much. :good:

Don't use any other recovery except SS and BMM.
I can't explain proffesional but they allow custom roms to boot with the custom (kexec) kernel.
Most people around here are using SS,I prefer BMM but the support for it is discontinued,don't worry,just use one of them.
And read a little before you start anything

[Q] atrix rom on dx2 and cwm ?

i have looked maybe over looked, but now that we have the atrix rom on the dx2, will the cwm rom manager be applicable to our phone or is it still droid x2? i have the rom manager premium and when i open it up it asks what phone it is. any and all comments welcome. thanks for looking, hp

i thought that was how we got the atrix rom was because it was ported to the dx2.

dont use rom manager with the DX2. that being said you still have to use to original recovery that came with the bootstrap recovery.

Tried it and it bricked my phone.. So don't get any ideas, again it needs to be ported because it works with the unlocked bootloader which we don't have and( The cwr version) it bricks you

so you're saying do not use it? jk, thanks guys i will not use it. don't want a brick. thanks again, hp
I will second that. Don't use rom manager. If you flash the recovery on rom manager you will soft brick your phone and have to sbf in rsd mode.
I know, I did that when I first got my phone.

There is a ClockWorkMod recovery already... Everyone is waiting for the FXZ files, so when anyone bricks their razr it can be restored back to factory. Until then, not very many people will chance bricking their phones with no way to restore
We don't have an OFFICIAL recovery yet.
Edit: Just trollin through
how about now..
Well, I don't see the clockworkmod recovery yet. Thought I could at least flash that.

Developer HASH has a Safestrap Recovery for the new Droid Razr XT912. You can read about it here:
http://hash-of-codes.blogspot.com/p/how-to-safestrap.html
I have not taken the dive yet. Waiting for the SBF Fast Boot files to be release by Big Red or for a Verizon Employee to leak them -- either one would work for me --LOL.
Edit: I just saw that XDA has their own posting on this topic here:

Just a thought.. I think it would be better if supporting Rom Manager on RAZR as early as now than start porting after a custom ROM becomes available.. Like what the devs did with Clockworkmod even with a very minor issue. (Enters recovery every reboot.)

Need some help? maybe bricked?

Been running stock rooted ics for a while and decided to try out a rom. I decided to try simplex rom. Well i decided to go back to my backup using safestrap. Well i booted in safestrap wiped and applied the back up. Now on reboot it goes to the M logo then screen goes black? What did i do wrong and what to fix it? I am downloading some things but not sure what i need to do?
thanks
Hi
Try to wipe cache/dalvik. If it don't boot. I think you'll need to flash a stock rom.
What's your razr ? verizon, att, latam...
Cheers
Sorry, i meant to include vzw. Safestrap recovery dont even show up now on boot? So i dont know how to flash the stock rom?

I guess the title should be changed into "How to flash with RSD" or something like that.
I have taken Screens for an step by step Guide, but not sure if we need an second one. I guess not

Thank you so much guys for the links and your patients! Once it downloads i will follow the helpful guide. I hate that my back up didnt work :/
That's not my Guide, but it's realy helpful for people that not confirmed with RSD.
So hit the Thanks Button in the linked Thread :thumbup:
BTW: An Factory Reset before RSD is never wrong, just to be clean and save.

any idea why my back up didnt work? would it be due to the bootloader change from the simplex rom? If that is the case ,do you think i can try the back again?

[Q] Rooting Razr Maxx XT910 JB

Guys!
I need your help!
I have a Razr Maxx XT910 retail running JB 4.1.2, I want to install the kitkat custom rom on it, so somewhere i read that i need to first root the phone, then install custom recovery CWM, then go for kitkat.
I'm stuck on the first step, Rooting
I have tried the method which includes Oracle VM VirtualBox and the JB_bionic.ova file. does not work. i tried more than 10 times and after rebooting it says update the su binary(super user update). I guess it means my phone is not actually rooted.
What should i do to get the kitkat?
