i tried my origional microusb cable and a blackberry one. same thing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
Have you tried using the utility to go back to .173 then manual update back to .181? Thats were i would start! And then when you get to were you are now make sure u pay close attention to what it says in the utility.. sometimes it gives the wrong number for the next step so reading the menus before proceeding at the end of one event to the next is beneficial i say this cause i remember it saying something about now ready to root use option 6 or something but when i continued that option was actually 9 or something.. (guess i should of taken notes as i did it.. lol) i do know once it installed root su you had to go into your apps menu find root su and update the binary! If you did install root, but didnt update the binary file "even tho if you look it says its current" you wont get root.. you actually have to update the binary to tell it it has su permissions from how it all went down! Then after that is done and it has root then it reconnects reboots installs voodoo ota root keeper (i actually went in and told voodoo to male the root backup cause i've used it in the past but i would assume the utility would tell it to do so as well! I just wasn't taking the chance!

Anyway long story short did you look in your apps to see if you the su app was infact installed.. if it was open it go to settings find were the bianary is listed 3.0.?.? And select it a little screen opens probably saying it is current hit update anyway.. if it fails saying no data connection kick on wiFi and it will update.. (thats pretty much all i got) hope that does it for you...

If i could hook ur phone up to my pc i'd hook you up in a heartbeat...

Good luck..

Can't get to the stock build of 173 or 181.

Tried with the 1.2 utility...got stuck on system.img.

Tried with RSD Lite and the images 173 and 181 that were included with the 1.2 update....those refuse to work.

RSD says missing XML file.

So I went here and tried the 173 and 181 stock firmwares from sbf.droid-developers.org

They did not work...some OEM error message.

Googled.

Found this thread on droidrzr.com.....

1107-fix-unknown-fastboot-command-oem-phone-connected

Removed OEM lines from 173...hung on system.img for 20 full minutes.

Close.

Retrying with 181 after removing the OEM lines.

...5 minutes and counting.

I'm not optimistic.

Please help?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
From what i understand the images .173 and .181 are not rsd flashable? Those are for ap fastboot only! And those arent to go back to 173 or 181 there to go to ics from those.. i believe 173 to .84 and 181 to .85!

Also, i didn't need to use rsd i manually cleaned out safestrap when ics .75 leaked and never returned to it.. and that is the only reason to use rsd from what i understand is if u used safestrap or bootstrap or any other mods! Also from my interpretation of it i read the use of rsd through the utility and when you follow the directions it says you have to point to were the xml file is.. it wont just see it? And it is located it the unpacked zip with the utility in the folder marked fastboot file called VRZ_XT912_6.5.1-167_DHD-14_M2-5_CFC_1FF_01.xml so my guess is you would have to point rsd to that location to push the file through!

Hope that helps some! The file you reference removing oem and what not they have the actual file available for download already edited if you attempted to edit i have no idea what on your own..

Anyway off to sleep for me, hope that helps or set you in a direction that does! Hope your really not cancer ridden!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CancerRiddenLung:
O__o!

There's an XML file in the fast boot folder?

Ak!

God...I hope this works.

Quick question where u on ics. 84 before u tried this?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CancerRiddenLung:
No I was on "clutch" version of 173.

I think clutch was not a real rom...it just removed bloat.

I had a rooted stripped down version of 173...

I loaded it with clockworkmod.

I tried option 1.....go straight to a vanilla 173....then all my troubles started.

moto-fastboot.exe keeps getting stuck on

grfs.img

system.img

preinstall.img

It sends then writes the first 262144kb (256mb)...

It sends the second 262144kb (256mb)...

It cannot seem to write it though.

Each step until the second write only takes 12 seconds...but that second write took 35 minutes and never completed.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bostonbassman78:
If u jump back to the very first page i am pretty sure this would not work if u ever used cwm safeboot and one other one

Have u tried to just the rsd to flash your phone

Uhhh...what are you talking about?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bostonbassman78:
1. Make sure your phone is completely stock 6.12.181 (it's ok if it has been rooted) 2. Make sure you have NEVER installed bootstrap, safestrap, or cwm. (If you have used these, skip option 1 and use RSDLite 5.6) 3. Unzip ICSInstallerv1.2.rar to an empty folder 4. Double click the ICSInstaller.bat file 5. Please READ and FOLLOW all instructions! (you will retain root) 6. You now have ICS!

Man i dont know why its giving u such a hard time gave u tried pm rouxe41
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CancerRiddenLung:
Yeah...I read or at least skimmed through 40 pages...he said at one point you could just press "1".....but now in the OP it says to use RSD lite...but the XML file isn't in the ZIP files its in the fastboot directory.

*facepalm*

The directions for using RSD lite aren't in the OP are they?

I'll hit myself if they are.

From the program itself...so someone else may not have to suffer like me:

"

first

open the folder included with the zip called rsdlite5.6

double-tap the file "rsdlite5.6.msi"

follow the installation wizard prompts

open the rsd lite program you just installed

before continuing:

enter "ap fastboot flash mode"

connect via usb

to enter "ap fastboot" mode

press and hold "power", "vol +" and "vol -"

when the screen goes black, release then press and hold "power" again

wait for the boot mode selection menu appears

press "vol -" twice to highlight ap fastboot

press "vol +" to use select ap fastboot

second

navigate to the xml file in the fastboot folder using the "..." button

be sure your device is connected

tap start

do not disconnect the phone until it has finished

"

....phone is bricked and useless now.

Great.

Should I throw it in the microwave to break it for an insurance claim with verizon or should I got with an OOW reimage with Motorola?

What do you guys think?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CancerRiddenLung:
ClockWorkMod (CWM) + ROOT + 173 + RAZR + Option 1 = bricks your phone

Can you please edit that out of this thread?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
I wonder, yes it just now hitting me, that since I'm running 64bit if that could be a problem. I've tried it on my desktop running vista 64 bit and my laptop running windows 8 consumer preview 64 bit, both give me the same problems.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
I believe it has been taken out of the utility.. it has been re written or adjusted a time or two since it was originally posted.. i suppose the post your referring to could be edited but everything you need to know is in the first post were you download the installer.. i dont remember seeing anything about cwm+root use option 1...

Another thing is i had problems getting into ap fastboot.. directions arent exactly friendly about that.. easiest way to get to ap fastboot is a regular phone power down or shut off then hold both volume buttons and then hold at the same time the power button and a split second later you get the boot menu and can use volume down twice to select ap fastboot then volume up to select it.. once in ap fastboot reconnect via usb...

Holding all three while phone is on already never worked for me it just reboots and skipped the boot menu every time... directions should read "shut your phone off first.."

but i think if you already tried option one w cwm inatalled ur gunna need to use an alternate method other than this utility..

Sorry...

..can you still get to CWM on boot? You could try putting the se rom you had on ur sd card and use cwm to re flash the rom which might work.. then you would have to use rsd the way it was intended to get back to 173...

Haven't had to try that myself on my RAZR yet.. but i have with my Xoom a few times!

Recovery is a pain! a simple way to completely wipe a phone and then just push a clean image to it would be nice....

Surprised no one figured that out yet! Lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abowlofsoda:
Ya I had similar issues where I couldnt get in to ap fastboot. I'm not sure if the directions I was going by where in the OP or some other site but it was hold Power+ both volume buttons until screen goes black then release and hold 'Power'....

That never worked and I eventually figured out it was release then hold all 3 AGAIN brought me in to it.

I too had CWM installed so I was very cautious going thru the steps. What eventually gave me confidence to dive in was watching the video in the OP. Once I watch that once over I installed everything and followed along to it on a 2nd view.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
I run on windows 7 64bit.. so i wouldn't say 64 bit is your problem! I would check to make sure you have the 64 bit motorola drivers! Just get there latest 64 bit pack.. covers most of there devices.. if you cant find it let me know.. i'll post a link! "If i can yet! Lol"

Only thing I don't know is if the utility will work on Vista correctly! Nothing ever seams to work correctly with Vista.. and i havent played with win8 yet! Considering going to linux myself.. sick of the windows bs..

Anyway Double check your drivers! Make sure there 64 bit.. and let us know if it works on vista with different drivers.. i do believe the moto 64 bit driver pack should install on vista.. i remember seeing it listed i think! Just dont know if adb works well on vista especially if your not using the android-sdk (which can be complicated just the same..)

If all else fails.. perhaps load up win 7 64 at least to get your phone updated! Or perhaps a friend you know is running win 7

....and good luck!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
from the link it should, theoretically, be both 32 bit and 64 bit. I feel like an idiot. I was running Ubuntu 11.10 and ditched that because you can do more on windows. I still like Ubuntu though. id run it if I could dual boot

edit: figured it out, had to install motocast for some reason
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
Nice.. meant to say the motocast which has the updated drivers.. lol.. glad you got it tho! Welcome to the land of ICS
[Motorola Droid RAZR] keeb119:
Now I gotta wait for the utility to do something after starting the daemon at the beginning of rooting, option 2.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] :
any progres on getting people unstuck from 84/85?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bostonbassman78:
Nope and we probably wont see a fix for it till the official ics comes out if the bootloaders are the same and even still i doubt it

Just officially flashed back to gb 3 times from ICS to go to the new leak!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wdenker:
I flashed my phone to ics using option 6 which should be safe to go back to gingerbread from. I flashed back to 6.12.173 and did the ota to .181 but now I have no 4g. Any suggestions? I have tried the motorola connectivity app, I have tried a new sim card, any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I used RSD lite and a xml file from another post to get it back.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dino3099:
can u please share the link to us??
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wdenker:
Link for what exactly? RSD lite? The xml file? the Motorola connectivity app? This was not a way to get back from the 84 or 85 leak.

Edit:

Here is the link that gives you everything you need...

[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
So what your saying is.. you used the utility option 6 to load ICS 6.14.84 to a rooted .173 sys then flashed that back to 6.12.173 using the utility (using option 1 I would imagine).

Had a problem after the ota update to .181 with 4G when it updated so you used rsd lite with the XML file vzw to go back to .173? then when updated to .181 it was fixed? And was stock again!

Is that possible? I was under the impression anyone like I who installed the .84 or .85(me) couldn't go back!

Can anyone confirm that or am I completely misunderstanding! Which wouldn't be the first time...

If you did.. I'm thinking that's good news for some of us.. tho I am personally not worried.. lol
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wdenker:
I am under the impression that option six was the first leak that is stable to flash back from and yes I did exactly as you said.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
That would make sense.. I was under the impression that option 6 was for ics 84 and 7 was for 85.. lol.. my bad (jus double checked.. you are correct)... so the only reason I have. .85 running is because i swap'd the zip in the ics181 folder.. I thought I was overwriting the same zip there was only a slight dif in file size! Dohhh guess I overwrote the .84 zip..

---------------

Anybody see wireless N availability in

.84?

- I had 74 it wasn't available and now still no wireless N on 85...

B and G show just fine.. but way back when I had GB "guess just about a month now since," and i know I had wireless N then...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ManOnTheMoon:
i beeen on .75 for awhile now. so smooth and stable. i flashed axiom's cmplex mod for ics leak. nothing but issues. apps kept of fc, root was effed up, and wifi was dropping. i did a factory reset and it fixed it a little jsut stay away from it
[Motorola Droid RAZR] joshw0000:
I've been on .75 since shortly after this utility was released. Unless there are some badass updates in the other ICS leak, I see no need to flash it. I've also flashed the ICS deodexer and ICS stubby 1% battery mod. I'd love to see a dev create a custom rom from this base because I've had absolutely 0 issues with it.

I know Moto is all about pushing non buggy OTA's but what is holding them back from making this official? It's ready!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] abowlofsoda:
i been on .85 leak for over a week now. Everything is super smooth and the only issue its my 4g stops working sometime during the day. only way to get it back is reboot. i still get 3g just fine but its annoying when i go to tether, which its often. I want more speed during tether so i reboot.

Thought about reflashing to fix the radio but I'm so busy lately...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] echew:
I have a stock 181 CDMA RAZR and followed the video step by step. My phone has never been rooted. When I get to the point where it loads ICS, I get the triangle, the status bar goes to about 30% and the phone reboots and I still have GB. Root appears to be intact for Roomanager and Voodoo and SU. What am I missing?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] echew:
I was able to go back to 173 and root, then voodoo then 173 to ICS. But now i'm experiencing issues with wifi. Wifi rapidly switches from connecting to connected. Suggestions?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] eeisner:
alright, im sure all my questions have been answered in the past, but i dont feel like reading 44 pages of this thread, so here it goes.

i just got my verizon razr yesterday and ota'd it up to .181. If i flash the latest version of the leak, do i need to use the utility to revert back to .173? what is the assumed process of flashing the official ics version - reverting to GB or being able to OTA with the leak installed? anything else i need to know about the leak - known issues etc?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stkiswr:
I am running the 84 leak. I flashed it they stock recovery over 181. You will be stuck at 84 until hopefully something newer comes along but its not bad at all. I disabled many apps after installing and my battery life is fantastic. 4 1/2 hrs screen on time w 3g and 4g and still 30% left after 11 hrs. I am super happy. Much better than the 75 leak.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stkiswr:
On 84 does anyone know why second core isn't showing its online? Phone works well. But would like to know why it doesn't show its working
[Motorola Droid RAZR] stkiswr:
Meh, I rebooted and its showing 2 now. Odd.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] blueis300:
Guess Im a slow reader as I have the same problem. Just went from .173 up and skipped .181.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] daniel644:
So, I've read thru the last 10 pages or so, what version of this (.75, .84, .85) is in the current torrent and can it be reverted back? I would like to play with this but don't want to get stuck if that update image floating around is right and we'll be getting OTA ICS within 2 weeks.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mcnabb311:
Ok so I had 81 and rooted, preserved root, updated to ICS, but when I try to recover root it says voodoo doesnt have superuser permissions. Of course I cannot restore root either. What do I have to do from here? Can I re-root ICS, or do I have to roll back somehow, or do I try the whole process again?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
CWM 5.0.2.5 with ICS .85 Leak

Not sure if anyone else has done this.. I've searched about every site and forum since i did this!

Everything I read prior to doing this was that to get CWM recovery working on the RAZR you had to use a modified CWM "J.Y.Daddy.zip" along with the RAZRBootstrap.apk!

I started looking into this when I noticed I had the Rom manager free app on my phone after having flashed to the .85 leak with root.

(NOW.. I don't know if it installed with the utility on this thread or if it downloaded back to my phone from google when my account sync'd -because I use it on my xoom tablet!)

Anyway, I wanted to see if it would boot into CWM recovery from the app!

It said it needed to install CWM I said ok! It asked for my device "picked RAZR" it said not compatible with this device yet!" or something like that, but then said unless you have manually installed CWM, I said ok -"Thinking maybe it was thru the ICS installer!" I chose the 2.+ version there were two choices! 3.+ and 3.+ something to that effect... It gave SU permission! thought Hey maybe this is working! said version 2.0. something so I hit the boot into CWM recover, asked if I was sure! I said yes..

and "NO GO.. Just rebooted everytime I pushed it"

so I says to meself! well you paid for premium so of to the market and installed the premium license for Rom Manager.. Tried again.. Same Thing No go!

OK.. hmm! So I decide to grab the razrbootstrap apk and the modified global_J.W.Daddy.zip, figured whats to lose but bricking...

So I install the apk and run it! it gets su then reboots into CWM.. were your suppose to install the zip, I look for the zip.. couldn't find it "never transfered it to my sd after download"

-BUT... I'm playing around in CWM and notice it's not the 2.+ version that the zip would make it! it was 5.0.2.5! I figured well let me reboot, maybe this is it or I'll move the zip then do it again..

Phone reboots just fine! I go to Rom Manager instead of saying the 2.+ it also says 5.0.2.5 "really?" this can't be right... so, I hit reboot into CWM again! it said update available hit update, nothing changed but granted su permission - hit reboot to CWM again it flashed su failure and rebooted

"I was expecting it to just reboot as it was before..."

hahaaa, nope it booted into CWM recovery 5.0.2.5 and now does every time I use the app without getting the error!

Also from what I read, if I actually "had" flashed the L.Y.Daddy zip (i never did) it would have made it boot into cwm recovery every reboot... mine does not it reboots normally unless I reboot to CWM from the app...

I used cwm to fix permissions which helped a lot of little app issues I was having from cwm recovery - not from the rom manager app.. I tried that first and it hung!

Not sure if this helps anything for anyone anywhere! but thought I'd post it up!

Personally I haven't tried to flash anything yet! as far as roms or anything, not sure what will happen being on the .85 leak?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ali87va:
oops!

So I followed everything and just now realized I didnt preserve root 0_____0 anyway I can get root access?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mcnabb311:
Yeah, it seems nobody wants to help us re-establish root. I guess I need to look around some more.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sidgrafix:
Did you try following the directions in the 5th post at the start of this/ using a terminal app and updating the su-binary file... didn't have an issue myself but it may be able to activate root if you did root before update but for got to preserve w voodoo!

Can't guarantee it but might work?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mcnabb311:
I tried that method and it didnt restore root.
