I was on .748 and wanted to get to the latest update (.173). I was told to run this utility and that should take care of it. I was running biganad's ICS Theme.

I feel a bit stupid but when I tried to run the .bat file, I get an error in the CMD window, it says:

'findstr" is not recognized as an internal or external command. operable program or batch file.

Too powerful to fall into the wrong hands.

Please make a selection or hit enter to exit:


I finally just hit "1" and I was able to finally run the utility and the good news is I was able to get it to work (I think). I hit both volume buttons after I got the ! triangle and wiped cache. It reboots and then after I hit "English" when choosing my language, I hit the "android guy" and it just sits there and spins and says "Please wait... this could take a few minutes".... but its been sitting there for 15 min doing this. Any idea on what might be the issue?

Can anyone help me? I am stuck on this set up screen and not sure why.

That worked great! Thanks!

My issue now is I seemed to have lost my data connection (phone). I can connect to my home wifi but I have no phone service. Any thoughts on how to get that back?

It's a random issue with 1/25 or so fastboots not wiping internal SD card like Motorola wants with the 173 fastboot files. A solution if wiping data and refastbooting doesn't work would be flashing the full 6.12.173 files (found on XDA or in my 1.40 utility). Those do wipe your internal SD though.

Also, the findstr command not found is from you somehow removing C:/system32/ from your PATH in Windows.

OK, thanks!

My only concern in flashing the full .173 file is if it erases my sdcard, how would I restore if something goes wrong? That was my only saving grace at this point because I was able to restore my previous backup.

I am wiping data but I'm not sure what refastbooting means?

Also, as far as the finstr command, should I fix it or does it matter?

It's how batch finds its basic windows commands. Having system32 as part of your path is kind of...very important o_O

If you flash 173. with the wiping internal SD command taken out, you may experience the no signal issue.

I don't know what you mean by restore, considering this is already a restore process...

Refastbooting is fastbooting...again.

Ok. I am off to figure out how to put system32 as part of the path first (since it seems important). lol

What I meant by "restoring" was if I flash the whole .173 and end up losing my signal, I have no way to go back to a previous backup in which it did work. That is what I did last night. Since the signal wasn't working, I flashed back to my .748 backup.

Ok, I figured out the system32 issue and the utility it working good now.

But, I still have a problem with no radio (data). I ran the 1.40 (with the 1.41 PATCH) and it worked great but I still have no radio. The only commands I have run are #1, then I did the motofail and the Bootstrap Recovery.... but still no radio signal. Did I flash the correct utility? If not, could you link it for me?

EDIT: I just looked on my sdcard and saw that installing the 1.41 Utility did not wipe my sdcard. I must not be installing the correct one. I am following the directions by booting into AB Fastboot and then running the 1.40 (with 1.41 patch) Utility.

Maybe I should have ran the 1.4 utility, not the PATCH 1.41. I am going to try that. Wish me luck. lol

Did it and it worked like a charm! Thanks for your help!

Also, I ran the 1.4 Utility but it did not delete my sdcard contents... nor did I get the triangle (where you have to hit the volume up+down and wipe cache. It just install right though, I clicked the android guy to set up and it went just like I was upgrading via OTA. I was a bit confused but I just went with it. lol

WOW! I'd tried just about everything to root my unbranded Asian (Taiwan) GSM Droid RAZR.

I updated my Moto drivers, ran the bat file, selected option #2, followed the instructions and...Hey Presto...I'm rooted! :D

THANKS SO MUCH! (I'll be donating.)

Sorry for a noob question but I couldn't find an answer anywhere :

I have a Verizon Motorola Rarz Maxx, I wonder if I can sim-unlock it and use it on a GSM carrier here in Canada.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT : figured it out, I think GSM capability in XT 912 is disabled by Verizon.

New to razr. Finally retired my Incredible.

How do I return to stock? I rooted with this on Verizon 2.3.5. I've also installed bootstrap. Ran the update to 2.3.6 with voodoo rootkeeper.

But I have terrible earpiece buzz and want a replacement.

Do I just run option 1 to make my phone returnable?

Thanks
