Your device is bootloader locked on the version of KitKat that can't be unlocked without paying $25 to the Sunshine app.

You can still flash the stock ROM via RSD Lite without unlocking bootloader which should hopefully restore your phone back to fully working stock condition.

Root and Update Droid Razr M

Hello...

I'm not exactly a noobie... I've been running CM10 on my nook HD for years.

But its been a while since I got down and dirty with cyanogenmod

My droid is running Android 4.4.2 ota from Verizon and I'm completely happy with it.

But my bank obsoleted my droid by requiring at least Android 5.0.

I got a new LG running 7.1, and I hate it.

What's out there I can install to run 5.0 to 7.1 and is easy to install??

KKBL to JBBL with an unlocked Bootloader and TWRP

I made a new thread because I don't know if this one is active anymore, but this is copy/past of it:

I have an unlocked XT907 with the KKBL and all of the newest ROMs are use JBBL, I've been looking on how to downgrade and it seems like I need the stock firmware, but all I've found are dead links. If anyone could help me, either by giving me a good link or another way to get the JBBL it would be much appreciated. Side note, I have an unlocked Bootloader and TWRP, and I'm on CM 12.1.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kevanness:
Ah, thanks, I was looking at one of the other indexes. So to get back to the JBBL could I flash the 4.1.2 stock rom and then flash a JBBL TWRP at the same time in my current recovery and then reboot to get back to the JBBL, or do I need to use RSD/House of Moto to flash the stock rom?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sd_shadow:
You need to flash the stock firmware to downgrade.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DiamondJohn:
Not a recommendation, as I personally would use RSD to downgrade to a full JBBL ROM as [MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION] suggests. However, some people have historically used a flashable zip to switch between KKBL and JBBL and back again. if you search [MENTION=550835]rahimali[/MENTION] posts, I think you will find a link to the flashable zip. But again, I personally would go with [MENTION=4267571]sd_shadow[/MENTION] 's suggestion top flash the full ROM through RSD.

PS: as you will read, when flashing TWRP, make sure to boot straight back into TWRP.

Hey, This was the droid of my dreams when I was young. I finally got one. for cheap and in good condition. It's a Luge variant (xt907). only problem is I can't get RSD lite to work on Win10. I want to restore it. The bootloader is locked so after I used mfastboot, it couldn't get past the language selection as it stays stuck on the loading "this may take several minutes" screen. Is there a way around this or any programs that can be used in place of RSD lite to flash system partitions with a locked boot? Or any way to unlock the BL without adb?

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Alixbot:
Towelroot gave me a message saying that I wasn't connected to any data even though I had Wi-Fi. Once I just went ham and tried fastboot to downgrade, I scrambled my eggs and now the setup wizard won't progress past the loading screen I mentioned. Come to think of it, the emergency call button leads to a black screen with just a nonfunctional status bar and navbar. I'm actually going to try the RSD from root junky on a friends Linux distro.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rahimali:
What do you mean by "I wanna try towelroot on a few firmwares"? The only purpose of towelroot is to unlock the bootloader from stock ROM. Once the bootloader is unlocked, towelroot is of no further use!
