Run it again, reset the phone with the 'Mode' button under the Main tab and leave it connected until it fully boots

Does this actually fully unlock the phone, or just make it so it's usable with ATT? For instance, I have a Droid 3 that's factory unlocked, but doesn't work on att until its radio is changed. Also, can the razr m be updated OTA to 4.1 from stock, or will that render it unusable on att?
It fully unlocks it to use on any GSM carrier. The latest update reverts the changed NV Item back to 01 if it was ever changed, but it doesnt stop you from doing it again so feel free to update and run this through. You dont need to change the radio or anything

Awesome. I've heard some people say that they can't obtain root through the newest update. If I were to buy a Razr M online and it had 4.1 on it with the newest build, I could still run it on ATT, correct? Do you know if RSD Lite works with the newest firmware?
RSD lite wont do much other than let you go back to root. Nothing will currently allow you to unlock the bootloader, so you won't be able to flash roms. You dont need root to do this though

Also, just to clarify, it doesnt matter what firmware your on, locked bootloader or not. You can then run it on ATT T-Mobile H2O or any of the MVNO's

Well, I asked about RSD Lite before because i used it to unbrick my droid if anything went wrong. It totally flashes to stock, and I never got myself in a situation where RSD Lite couldn't fix my phone. Do you know if RSD Lite works no matter what firmware you're on?
Rsd lite doesnt restore the bootloader back to a previous version. There is currently no way to do that. If your phone has the latest firmware update taken before unlocking the bootloader, your sol on that front. You can't go back. Not with Matts utility or rsd lite. It will restore the firmware to a previous version of Android so you may root but that is all you can do. Again, that is not necessary if all your looking to do is unlock for GSM carriers. Just run it as you are

This also works with the FREE version of CDMA (NV-items reader/writer). There are a few small differences, like everything you need is on one page and just put a check mark next to the SPC code when you log in to the phone.
And thank you for the great post.
Suck this Verizon! :victory:
I am on the T-Mobile $30 unlimited data 100 min prepaid plan. Everything was working perfectly until this past weekend. I set the phone in airplane mode and after disabling it I was unable to receive any form of data or cellular signal. On the top right of the notification bar is a. Red triangle with a white cross in the center. I have tried removing and reinserting the sim card but I get a message saying " restricted access has changed".
This is the xt926 9.20.1. The phone is rooted. I have tried the sim on the nexus 4 and it works just fine.

It happens sometimes for no reason. Go through the process again, restoring the phone with matts utility or red, and restore your apps with TBup. Honestly the only way ive found
Dont see why it wouldnt, though the chances of a bump from 4.1.2 to 4.4 is pretty unlikely
need help
I have windows 7 64 bit but my device manager doesn't look like the fist post I do have comport and the QC diag port loaded on com 3. Mine doesnt have modem. I do have motorola stuff under other.
Can someone show or tell me how to set the driver up in device manager for a non pc person?
Anyone in the DALLAS TEXAS area that can do this for me?

On my channel is the video. Link next to my Razr M in signature will take u to following the process for unlocking
Sorry to asking again, does it mean if I get Verizon version of Razr Maxx HD, put my own SIM card (VIP, Croatia) that will work everywhere in the world (at home or roaming)? Only I can't use SIM card from another USA mobile provider?

heres the quick rundown -
1: get the Motorola QC Diagnostics driver to install. hard with Win7 x64, but be diligent it does work.

5: connect to your COM Port and press CONNECT
6: click the SECURITY tab and enter 000000 as SPC and click SEND
7: click the MAIN tab and click READ *dunno if you need to but I did for safe measure*
8: click the MEMORY tab and select READ under NV ITEMS. dismiss the SPC prompt
9: First Item to read is 8322. Last Item to read is 8323. click SAVE and name the .txt file whatever you want, just remember where you put it
10: open the .txt file you just saved and under 8322 you will see 01 00 00 00 00 etc. change 01 to 00 and save the .txt file. DONT CHANGE 8323!!!
11: back in CDMA WS click WRITE under NV ITEMS. dismiss the SPC prompt again
12: find the .txt file you just edited and click OK
13: reboot the phone and put in your preferred Sim

---from cellzealot on how to load Win7 x64 drivers---
Here is a screenshot of Device Manager on my PC on WIN7 64 bit with the latest 6.2 Motorola USB drivers and my XT907 connected in BP Tools mode with all of the interfaces highlighted.
There are 3 modems, 1 network device and 1 COM port that should be present and installed.
The 6.2 driver set has signed versions for these device interfaces so no force loading should be required and they should install automatically when the phone is connected in BP Tools mode with USB debugging enabled.
Make note of the port number assigned to the COM Port as that is the port you will use for CDMA WS or DFS or any other QC based NV access tool.
The QC Interface is the Motorola QC Diag Port.
Right click and choose Update Drivers then choose Do not load drivers automatically. Allow me to choose from a list of available devices.
Scroll down to Ports: COM/LPT and then Motorola and then Motorola QC Diag Port.
It will warn about unsigned drivers, just click Install anyway and it will load the driver and show up with a COM port number assigned.
Use that COM port for CDMA WS to edit the NV.
If you continue to have problems, I suggest reflashing the firmware or just the modem and fsg.mbn in fastboot, and starting over.32Just a notice:
There's Stargo's command line utility unlock-us-gsm newly included in CM12 builds for xt907, xt926 and xt897.
All you have to do to unlock US GSM with it is:
in terminal emulator app or adb shell.Code:su unlock-us-gsm

I NEED CONFIRMATION FROM ANYONE WITH AN XT907 ON THE LATEST UPDATE TO CONFIRM WHETHER OR NOT THIS STILL WORKS!! PLEASE LET ME KNOW SO I CAN UPDATE THE OP ACCORDINGLY!
If you do this can you use the phone on Verizon still or do you need to revert the changes?

It takes some time to get GPS signal lock, use GPS Status & toolbox to donwload AGPS data and see satellites.
