I tried following the steps as stated in the very first post by OP.

However, even after I installed all US 2.0 drivers for Motorola XT907, restarted computer and phone in factory mode, and connected my phone in USB debugging, the software's Red radio button still doesn't turn green.

I'm using Razr M XT907 phone windows 7-64bit edition.

I also happen to only have a generic USB cable for my phone. Could this be causing the problem of connection? Will the original Motorola USB cable really make a difference? I don't have the motorola USB cable. Do I have any other option?

is your usb debugging mode on?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dum215:
The USB debugging mode was on and I tried performing the operation in Factory mode as OP stated. But it didn't work.

Since the OP also said to connect the phone as a Media, I also tried connecting the phone as a media, it still didn't work

OP: Thank You!!!

All I needed were the drivers, which i got at https: //motorola-global-portal.custhelp. com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481

And then everything worked great on the first try!

Update: I thought it worked but then NV 8322 somehow reset to 01. I followed rekamyenom's trick and got it to stay at 00. As he says, just don't reboot after writing. Instead: wait a few minutes, try to make a call, then turn off airplane mode when prompted (even though as far as you know it shouldn't be on), wait a couple of minutes again, and then the network will be auto selected for you and calls will work. Upon rebooting, NV 8322 will stay 00. Thanks!

[MENTION=767282]cellzealot[/MENTION] I followed the instructions, and it seems to work with my Straight talk Tmobile sim for voice and SMS; however I dont get any data connection. I did a bit of poking around and it seems that i dont get 4g Tmobile in my area. 4G AT&T is available here though, so do i need to get an AT&T sim instead? Or have I missed something else?

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBowToAndroid:
Either they don't have 4G, or they still run it on the 1700 band - which the phone doesn't have. Either way, yes, looks like you would have to go wit ATT or one of their MVNOs for 4G service

It is always best to use a Motorola cable to avoid issues, but many other cables work as well.

As mentioned, you have to try to find what works on your setup.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tomfreeman:
I had the exact same problem. I have the Razr HD and was coming from Verizon to Ting. I went through the RadioComm method and had a successful write. I even re-read the bit to ensure it came back 00, but every time I would reboot the phone I would get the same problem you had.

There is an additional step that you probably need that is covered in the CDMA WS method that is not part of the RadioComm method, and that is disabling the security protection of the phone. This may be possible through RadioComm, but that is a question for CELLZEALOT.

My xt926 unlocked and enabled the TMobile GSM network successfully using the CDMA method. Give it a shot. dragonhart6505 has some good video tutorials for both activating the Motorola diag driver as well as unlocking with CDMA WS. You can use the demo version of CDMA WS for free to unlock your phone.

Works on Razr M XT907 4.4.2 with ATT GoPhone SIM

As others have posted, I too had issues with little service then no service at first. I did the whole RadioComm edit again and Read 8322 and surprisingly it came back as "01" still. I then sent the "00" "WRITE" then"8322" command multiple times (probably 4). I did another "READ" "8322" and it came back as "00". I rebooted phone again in "Factory Boot" mode, THEN ENABLED USB DEBUGGING AFTER PLUGGING IN, and did the "READ" "8322" yet ANOTHER TIME...

"00" was the read-back!!!!! Success!!!! I put my son's iPhone ATT GoPhone Sim in and almost instantly (and still in "Global" mode NOT "GSM") I was able to get signal and make calls. I called my wife while I was standing next to her and she was confused to see our son's number show up! It works great!

Thank you all so much for this new freedom found on an old phone!

XT907 apparently not recognized..?

So I have downloaded the necessary drivers (the latest from Motorola's website 21/06/2015), RadioComm version given within the thread here and set my phone with MTP and USB Debugging.

Followed to steps to the letter and my issues first started after going into the boot menu and selecting "Factory" as the boot option. I hate to assume, but I am thinking booting into Factory mode sets things as if the phone was just booted for the first time? Anyways, I went into Dev options and checked to see if USB Debugging was still enabled and it wasn't. Actually, a lot of things weren't selected, but that is besides the point. Moving on...

Phone system version is the most recent (183.46.15) and I am running Windows 8. Long story short, everything has been done perfectly and I am not seeing anything happen in GUI. The radio button has not flashed red to yellow or green at any point and nothing has showed up in the status window. Is there something I am missing here? I have read the steps thoroughly and at least 4 times over and have made sure my phone has the correct settings enabled each time. Any help would be great. I'd like to be able to use this on Straight Talk and H2O Wireless and eventually T-Mobile when I feel comfortable going back to a non-prepaid service plan. I was reading that some users are having 3G/4G/LTE connections issues which worries me, but I'll have to read through the comments more to see if any has a solution unless a reply to my reply contains a solution... Thank you in advance!

Edit: I am running Win8 with .NET Framework 4.5.2, phone is running 4.4.2 (not rooted), and again the necessary drivers have been installed. I am also getting a new error when I try to test the program by requesting to see the IMEI:

Myself? I would flash a factory firmware which includes the stock radio and would restore your M to factory new condition as well. You can NOT flash backwards though, so whatever Android version you have you have to flash or you can flash up to a newer version, such as Lollipop I believe, or definately Kit Kate, I forget. And I'm sure there will not be any more updates, so may as well flash it one last time, but I've heard that the final upgrade to Android taxes the system hardware a bit, so keep that in mind. I personally have stayed with 4.1.2 I think it is. Good luck

One comment on the (well detailed!) process in OP: the first time running RadioComm it asks to install Motorola Datacard Drivers 1.5.11. I had tried to abort this install, assuming that the Mobile Drivers 6.3.0 would supersede the Datacard drivers. That was incorrect - I needed to let the Datacard drivers install as well, and reboot.

You posted in the most up to date thread for the XT 912 and if you read that thread you will see that there is no solution for that device despite over a year of work put in by myself and others.

Making repeated posts asking for one in the wrong forums and attempting hacks for other devices will not help you and is dangerous in some cases.

Edit: To answer your question about chip sets, the XT912 RAZR has a hybrid Qualcomm MDM6600/ Motorola TI Wrigley LTE radio chip set.

The XT 907/926 RAZR M/HD has a Qualcom MSM8960 radio chipset as part of its Qualcom Snapdragon SoC.

I cannot get this to work. I'm using a Droid Razr M from Verizon in US. Android version 4.1.2. Build number 9.8.1Q-66. Build date Fri Mar 22 08:26:01 CDT 2013. I've tried doing it manually and SEEM multiple times each. The 00 always sticks. I'm trying to switch to Straight Talk. Straight Talk customer service tells me the SIM card is active and should work if my phone is unlocked. I've tried a few different APN settings. None of them work. I always get a pop-up that says the SIM is from an unknown source. I've tried switching my Network Mode to GSM/UMTS and Global. Neither work. Anyone have any advice? Thanks.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cellzealot:
The SIM from Unknown Source error is cosmetic and has no effect on service. You just dismiss the popup and it goes away till next boot.

It can be disabled by removing or renaming VzwPhoneService.apk and VzwPhoneService.odex in /system/app if you are rooted.

Another way to set the network mode is to use the Phone Information Menu accessed by they keycode *#*#INFO#*#* in the phone dialer.

That will allow you to set the network mode to WCDMA Preferred.

Also ##PROGRAM followed by the SPC(000000) will give you access to the Programming Menu and then select 13 APN Controls and then APN Edit.

That will allow you to edit the APN and save it properly and it will stick.

It says, "No network is available. Only emergency calls are allowed." when I try to make a call. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Both my XT907 and my XT926 are running 4.1.2 official release and they both work fine.

You might consider reflashing the full XML.zip for 4.1.2 and starting over after a fresh flash.

There is no reason I can think of that it isn't working for you and there have been several posters in this thread that said they are using it with Straight Talk.
