[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
This is the last release of mattlgroff's DROID RAZR Utility allowing you to:

a. Flash a clean stock ROM to your phone while wiping data,

b. Flash a clean stock ROM to your phone while preserving data,

c. Root your stock ROM using the RAZR Blade root exploit by Dan Rosenberg, and

d. Install SafeStrap by Hashcode.

All credit goes to these original developers, all I have done... explanation expanded for those who have asked:

We all rely on the utility turned out by mattlgroff (long may he tinker!) and in no way did I want to look like I wanted to grab fame from someone else's work, but I recognized a couple of things that needed doing:

1. When Matt Groff left the building at RAZR Resort for greener phone pastures, the current official software for our XT912 was 98.72.16, the Jellybean OTA. In the spring of 2014, Verizon released a 5.79 MB OTA dubbed 98.72.165 which patched many system files and updated the radio files on our phones. Rumors ran rampant over whether this would make our phones unrootable and whether it was even necessary. One of the benefits included new network configuration to accommodate Verizon's plans for future system upgrades. I incorporated this firmware in Matt's Utility.

2. At the same time, the current version of Hashcode's SafeStrap utility, 3.11, was included in the utility by Matt. I replaced it with version 3.73, the now-current version.

3. Some of the early reports that the new release of Jellybean was unrootable were fueled by an intermittent failure of Dan Rosenberg's 'RAZR Blade' root exploit to successfully root 98.72.165. This was caused by the phone not remounting some partitions quickly enough during the process. I addressed this issue as well.

Under an agreement that neither Matt nor any of the other mentioned developers were pestered with issues related to my re-release of this utility, he gave me his blessing and even hosted the file on his Batakang server.

There you have it: instead of using the original utility, updating and fighting to preserve/get root, finding an updated SafeStrap; it is once again as easy as it was always supposed to be...

If you have any problems with my updated version of this utility, PLEASE do not pester these developers! They have all moved on from supporting this platform. Post in this thread, and I or someone else will try to help.

Thank you, Matt Groff, for this excellent utility, and for permission to redistribute your work!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
I'm sorry, it's not neglect, just impractical. While the rsd routines and rooting should be practical, and there's a version of SafeStrap for the xt910; the last time I looked, there were about fifty different county/region/carrier specific Jellybean sbf files for the xt910.

The xt912 has only one, for Verizon USA.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mickeyasamoah:
Nice work. But really wish u guys could come up with a way to revert or downgrade to ics. Its being only two weeks since i upgraded to jb and i already hate the update.

Ooooh How i miss ics, with its smoothness, battery life etc unlike jb which causes the phone to heat up, bad battery, lags....

uhhh i hate this update. Wish i could downgrade!!:(:(:(
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
My sympathies, not everyone likes the same thing. Welcome to the world of locked bootloaders, where the manufacturer still owns your phone after you bought it!

I would suggest rooting your phone, installing a custom recovery (SafeStrap or BMM) , and trying a KitKat ROM. You might just find the speed and fluidity you miss, along with a while lot more... I recommend checking the CM11 thread, there's a lot of information there.

It sounds like you already know this, but don't be tempted to try ANY method to downgrade your phone! It's one of the few guaranteed ways to turn it into a paperweight.

Give me a thanks if I've helped you, I can't feel a high-five!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] mickeyasamoah:
Thanks, i have actually rooted my phone, installed SS, and installed Liquid Smooth 3.1(4.4.4). Its cool but it gets glichy sometimes and it usually causes the phone to heatup like crazy. I am even scared the battery would inflate and get bigger.

I want a smooth/stable rom with good battery life.

Dont care if its 4.0,
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
You know, there are still some CM builds of JB, and they reached release candidate status. If you try the 10.2 branch, you'll see a lot of the latter JB features that never made it to our phones. That being said, any time I went chasing down a battery-drain or overheating problem, I usually found an app was the culprit! [emoji33]

Thanks for your help bud, but i have tried cm 10.2 and the camera app force closes when opened. After that the device begins to do a series of soft reboots.

Thats the same reason why i upgraded to jb. Not knowing it was the rom.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
Am I correct in assuming you are using an xt910? As much as I hate to suggest it, with the types of problems you describe - persisting across ROMs - I would be tempted to RSDlite and start from scratch. Provided you can find the correct sbf file for your phone...

I have an xt912. And i just used DroidRazr Utility from mattlgroff for the upgrade from ics to jb. I dont know why but all the cm builds keep giving me this problem. Or does it need a specific rom slot???
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
CM10 builds will only boot on slot one, cm11 will work anywhere. Have you tried to actually delete and recreate the ROM slot before fresh installing a ROM? If you used this utility in this thread, you will have the latest Jellybean and SafeStrap.

Good news... I found this website made by motorola which allows you to unlock your bootloader. It kinda looks like the htc dev-unlock.

Here it is

Is it safe?

After the unlock can the device be downgraded??

Don'tcha know, our poor OMAP4 devices are all dead and recycled now? That's why there's no support and all the other forums that got fat on the OG droid RAZR (cough.. droidrzr) have relegated them to "Legacy Devices" and only have dead threads!

Long live XDA and the fanatics that call it home (us)!

Anyway, SafeStrap is, well, safer. And a lot easier to fix than having to hook up to a computer to reflash a ROM while you're at work! [emoji41]

[Motorola Droid RAZR] kaslopis:
So I had my 912 rooted with the latest ss.. Running a KK rom on slot 1. Noticed it was a tad laggy and someone on xda said it's better to install it on the stock slot. So I made a full nandroid backup from slot 1 and factory wiped the stock slot, because I don't want the stock rom.. I restored the nandroid onto stock slot and on reboot, right after the motorola symbol, it just stays black.. So I have a brick. Back to the forums and found this thread, AWESOME! But it's been a long time since I tried using any of these tools..

I downloaded the utility and from there, I'm kinda lost on what setting I need to have my phone on to have the windows utility do it's thing, as advertised. Can a brother get a little help around here? As soon as i open the utility it says push any key to start it and when I do the windows just closes.

EDIT: Since the windows utility closes immediately after I hit any button, I noticed some dialog pops up on before it shuts down, so I took a print screen capture and turns out it says "WINDOWSUTILITY.BAT WAS UNEXPECTED AT THIS TIME."

EDIT EDIT: Never mind, for some reason the utility wasn't running on my laptop and I gave it a shot on the desktop and it worked great.. Not sure what that was about. All I know is that the file wasn't ending in .bat format on my laptop. Resolved my own problem..

wot.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mickeyasamoah:
Nice tool. But I have a question.

Is this reversible ?? I mean downgrading back to 4.0.4?

That's impossible!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
AFAIK, trying to downgrade your firmware is the only way to permanently brick your phone! Once the locked bootloader is upgraded by an OEM flash file, it is designed to not allow a return to an earlier version. Sorry, many people have tried. [emoji19]

Sorry I haven't been monitoring this thread (or any other) much recently. IDK why the utility wouldn't run on your laptop... What version of Windows was it running? I've only tested on XP and Windows 7, i don't know if there would be a problem with Windows 8.

Maybe I should look into creating a bootable CD like 1KDS did for the Droid x..

It was on a Windows 7 laptop. Perhaps there was a setting on it that was messing it up?

Also, SS 3.75 is available now. Not sure if you would have the time to implement it into this neat little tool you made. Thank you for your work.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] mickeyasamoah:
You could just replace the new SS with the old one from the utility.

Just make sure u name the new SS with same name the old SS had and u would be good to go.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
I was thinking of it, but 3.75 is still alpha. (I love the fact that alpha Android software tends to be more reliable than a Microsoft new product release!)

I'm starting to look into that bootable 'nix live CD idea, if I roll one out before [MENTION=3457922]stargo[/MENTION] releases a stable Safestrap, I'll probably give a choice on which to install.

Hi I need your help! I tried the Utility with a locked fastboot/bootloader. It's totally bricked now, is there any way to get out of the brick? I can't flash anything because the bootloader is locked. But it wonders me did running the utility format the system/ and recovery partitions? (currently don't have recovery either)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] welder73:
Our bootloader can't be unlocked,that's a well known fact.

Sent from my Razr XT910
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Huzaifa_Aziz:
yes I got that up till now, what I would really like to know is how are you guys switching ROMS then? and by the way I am bricked, stuck with no recovery,system or anything... I get a "Preflash... " error when I try to flash anything through the fastboot... I don't know how to get over it and it's killing me.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Dwillian:
Start over from scratch using the utility. That is reflash stock ROM (I recommend using Option 1 that wipes data), Run the Razr Blade Root Exploit (Option 3) to root the phone, Install SafeStrap 3.73 (Option 4). Once you have successfully completed these three steps reboot into stock rom, download CM and GApps (remember where they are located), then reboot again and select SafeStrap Recovery during the boot process (i.e., tap Menu for Recovery in lower left of SafeStrap splash screen). Then select Boot Options, Rom-Slot-1, Create Rom slot (you can probably use the default partition sizes). Once the rom slot is created select Install and then select and install the CM and GApps zip files that you downloaded earlier. Once that completes select Wipe Cache and Dalvik, then select Reboot.

If all goes according to plan you should now automatically boot into your new Rom on rom slot 1. You can change which rom you boot into by selecting Menu for Recovery on the SafeStrap splash screen during reboot, select Boot Options, select the rom slot you want to be active, select activate (if it isn't the currently active rom slot), then reboot. You will now boot into the selected rom.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
I am concerned that your provider seems to be GSM, and I see you are viewing a thread about unbricking an xt910! Is it possible that you didn't see all the warnings stating that this utility was only for xt912?

If you have an xt910, there is no handy utility; you have to use RSDlite and download your region and carrier specific image file for your phone!

I would suppose that is the right method but the thing is the utility doesn't flash the Stock ROM (neither option 1 nor 2) it gives out a "preflash validation failed" message while writing recovery and "preinstall.img" and then when it completes and says Mobile will reboot after Radio install the screen goes black "M" motorola icon and then poof... Back to fastboot with flash failed message and all.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] neoramasay:
Was just curious, the Spring 2014 OTA - If you've been running a custom ROM since then and did not get that OTA, would your device be affected in any way?

Also, I forget (as my laptop that had the original version of mattlgroff's util on it died recently) - does the utility come with the latest OTA Stock ROM files included or would those have to be located and downloaded separately?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] brkahughes:
The spring 2014 OTA included a number of small bugfixes, as well as some updated radio files. While you can run either, I recommend the latest version, as the radio files can affect performance even when on a custom ROM.

The original Matt's utility contained the 98.72.16 Jellybean (original), and Safestrap 3.11. I updated the utility to the spring release of 98.72.165, and Safestrap 3.73. You can find it in the OP of this thread (hint: it's in my SIG).

Next on the burner is a bootable live-CD version including a choice of Safestrap 3.73 or 3.75 (for those who want to play with Lollipop).

I'd like to thanks everybody on this forum for their contribution.

In my case i need help.

I've tried the WM5 on my Qtek9090 and it's really slow so i downgrade to my WM2003 SE.

My problem is this one now :) I've touch ,by installing WM5, the quality and the organisation of button under WM5.

So i'd like to know if there's a way to completly transform my WM2003 Appearance to a WM5 appearance (including button,...)

For example in WM5 there's a button ,at the buttom of the screen, to send text message. I'd like to keep this option on my 2003.

I hope you'll understand what I mean, for the moment my English sux really :)

Hello everyone.

I had tried to update my ZL just now.

Well, I have to say that it didn't go well.

Here's my spec:

C6502, .101 Stock

Towelroot rooted, locked(Never tried to unlock), SuperSU(OTA survival on)

NUT dual recovery

Xposed framework--uninstalled legally through installer

Here's my sits:

100% battery, .230 OTA downloaded.

Then I OTAed it.

After reboot, things looked so ordinary.

SONY logo appeared with red LED lit(Well, in fact I do not know what does it stand but I guess it's because of NUT recovery)(Thanks NUT BTW).

Then, the cute lil' Android with a rotating polygon stuff in it's belly.(I guess its a pretty normal update screen)

Suddenly, after a minute or so, my screen goes black, and refuse to respond to any hard keys.

After an hour, I force-shut down it, desperately.

I tried reboot it ten mins later, and it booted normally, nothing bad happed, except a prompt says that it failed to update.

Well, I guess that's it. I gonna try to flash it days later.

But, I know there's a lot of great people here and you all may give me some sort of information so I can realize what was really going on.

Anyway anything provided is much appreciated.

Thanks for watching this thread. Hope you all have a great day!
