Might these kernels work when u scroll down to jellybean kernels cause my system is jellybean?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] AlfasMP:
Sorry for my late answer

Kernal is act like a mediator between your hardware and software . So every devices have their on kernals . So you cannot flash other devices kernal (nothing in Sony or Samsung).

Google and xda is your master ,so search on internet for oc kernal with your phone model name

If you cannot find, may be this thread help you

Hey all, I am a noob to rooting and unlocking, but quite tech capable. So treat me with kid gloves.

I have a prepaid USA Verizon Motorola Luge, and I want to use it in Canada on the Telus network. Supposedly the Luge is the same as the RAZR M. From what I read, this phone is quad band and "should" do LTE On the Telus network (I hope, I hope)

I tried a Telus SIM card and get the message "The SIM card is from an unknown source". A bit of reading tells me that I need to delete some verizon specifics files, but I first must root the device.

Here is some device info:

Model: XT907

System Version 184.46.10.XT907.Verizon.en.US

Android 4.4.2

Kernel Version 3.4.43-g562f212

So my questions:

(1) Will this device really work on the telus network? Everyone says Verizon is CDMA, and telus is phasing out CDMA. But then I read Verizon is 4G LTE on 1700/2100 - which is the same a telus - I am very confused.

(2) Can I root this device using the Droid RAZR M instructions/root files? I am using instructions from adroid devices web site ( I am restricted from posting the link)

thanks for the help.

[MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION] any chance for different mirror then filefactory I know you get $$ per downloads but it's gonna take 3 hours to download this.. or if you don't mind me making a mirror/s in 3 hours.. lol
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
not sure, it should work fine, but i would just flash the recovery.img and see if that works, if you don't want to mess with any flashing errors.

I flashed the system.img, then rooted, which flashed the Luge recovery, and it seems to work fine on my M.

That's the hope. if just flashing the recovery.img doesn't work, you could try just flashing the system.img with mfastboot or a complete flash with rsd lite.

working on mirrors got a Mega link up, working on a http://motofirmware.center/ mirror (2nd try)

Took me 3 tries to get a good download from Filefactory.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
I was afraid of that, up to you.

I hoped that just flashing the recovery.img would work.

You can flash just the system.img, but I don't know why that would make a difference.

or you can unzip the firmware and edit the .xml with notepad++ by removing the wipe data line.

line 30 <step operation="erase" partition="userdata"/>

and save, then run the unzipped copy

still have to reroot, but apps would still be there.

I might re-flash later thanks for your help I will let you know :D on luge firmware it didn't work before because it would hang on the same recovery screen I told you I was having issue with,on M firmware that didn't happen instead of going to recovery it rebooted to system.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
Flashed luge firmware today still can't enter recovery it has to do something with how the root is being done. It's alright,it's not a problem :D

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandon71:
Yes they are only Sim locked to local gsm Sims. So if you use a gsm Sim overseas it will work fine.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
Do you think Verizon could also have blocked even when European sim IN USA is roaming on AT&T or T-Mobile? I have 2 sim-cards from Poland which are active they pick up roaming on my note4 and LG Tablet but in Luge's they won't pick up roaming at all which usually is on AT&T.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandon71:
Yeah most likely. I Sim unlocked mine but before that it would always say invalid sim or something. Verizon really don't want you to use any other carrier. But I'm sure it will work once your out of the country. Like I said it only blocks US gsm sims.

Would a Polish Sim work in the US on any phone?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patt2k:
Yes it roams on AT&T then you can use it even with H+ but it's mad expensive of course it's not worth it. That is how I test sim cards in devices.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brandon71:
Hmm didn't know that. I'm using at&t prepaid plan on my m right now and that's all I can get is H+ because they use a different band for LTE than Verizon does. Verizon is pretty strict I couldn't even use a striaght talk Sim until I unlocked. So thats probably the issue you are having. Once you are out of the country and not using at&t towers I bet it will work fine.

Good news! 1 luge on Moto M firmware works on H+ :),Moto Luge also gets H+ however the one on Luge firmware tends to lose signal after few hours,I had roaming off the carrier used here Play Poland whenever has weak signal switches roaming onto other 3 main Polish carriers maybe that could be the reason,I have few days to test. I tested on both GSM and Global mode,both work fine.

Anything you guys can suggest if signal drops again out of nowhere? like I mentioned roaming is now ticked on,since it's included in prepaid.

Hi!

So unitl yesterday i only had one complain about my phone. The Power Button was broken. Sometimes it worked but most of the times when pressed it didnt do anything. But yesterday a few more problems started. From nowhere i lost my signal, i tried to reboot but it didnt solve, in fact when i rebooted it didnt asked me for my PIN. It's like it is losing connection with the SIM card. After many tries i got signal, put my phone on charge and went to sleep.

When i woke up the battery wasnt charged, it had still 12% of battery and when i disconnected it automatically turned off. I did a backup of my stuff and i flashed the factory image of 4.4.4 through fastboot. It keeps losing signal every 2 minutes and it doesnt charge!! I can only keep it ON when plugged in...

It didnt fall, i am always carefull with it.

I doubt that there is anything more i can do to try and fix it, but if you guys know what may be the problem, i would like to know :\

It is still in warranty.

Thank you, and sorry for my bad english.
