towelroot for Razr M 4.4.2 - Success!

leenathan · Jun 15, 2014

The recently released root method for the GS5 worked on my locked Razr M running 4.4.2 KitKat.

Here's the thread for the method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2783157

Good luck!

Works perfect on mine too. Unable to update SuperSU binary, but this isn't too important.

I'm not able to download the tr.apk!
When I clicked on the lamba, it says that there isn't any hotlinking to towelroot.com is allowed.
Can anyone help me?
Or can you just upload the apk file?

UPDATE: finally, it works for me

I have root

I will check it.

I had that happen the first try too.
I selected Chrome as the default app for download and tried again.
Worked the second to time once the select an app screen was gone.
Unfortunately I have not been able to get SuperSU installed.
Successful root!

I'm feeling really noobish here. But how do we grant root access without SuperSU?

Someone from razr-hd forums said he unlocked (!) the BL after root. Seems very unlikely due to software fuses irreversible nature but worth trying

Hi,

Root works using @geohot kernel exploit. And when you root it you can use old bootloader exploit to unlock bootloader. Just unlocked my razr

xKroniK13x · Jun 15, 2014

Just a quick note, if you download the flashable supersu zip file version 1.99r4 and find the APK inside, install it and your binaries will update. Give me a few and I will check the bootloader status, but I'll be thoroughly shocked if it isn't locked.

I just checked, bootloader is locked according to fastboot. Could you link that thread?

This worked on the 4.1.2 as well... just picked up (yet another) M on .3 (no unlocked BL this time) and it worked...

I will try it later today on my stock KK rooted.

Hallalujah! My BL locked RAZR M on stock KK is rooted.
SuperSU can't update su binary, but root works. What's the official link for the newest flashable version? Google just points me to older versions and links there just point me to the Play Store.

HOLY CRAP!!! :laugh:

I can confirm, whatever Towelroot does... BOOTLOADER UNLOCKS ARE POSSIBLE AGAIN!
I just ran Motopocalypse and BOOTLOADER IS UNLOCKED! :good:

Hurry and unlock your BL before Moto closes the exploit again!

megaghostgamer · Jun 15, 2014

This is straight up amazing!!! For anyone who wants the unlock apk, it's here! : Unlock me!

Creds go to: bweN diorD - for link

Nierana · Jun 15, 2014

I confirm that after using towelroot, it is possible to unlock the bootloader with all the old methods

jrk190 · Jun 15, 2014

I'm picking up a Razr M tomorrow to replace my Gnex, looks like I get to keep CM11, YES. Best. Day. EVER. All I do it towelroot and then use Motopocalypse to unlock it?

And make sure we all click and donate on the Towelroot website. Gotta thank the Dev for this Christmas in June.

jrk190 · Jun 15, 2014

Dude, I'm so happy. Like, I can't describe it. WOOT. 8 Hours of work and some tech support is all I've gotta give for my new baby. I hope CM11 is decent
