Thank you to everyone who helped with the new root and BL unlock ability on the 4.4 RAZR m.

I'm currently have the current ota 4.4 unrooted with a locked bk. The phone runs great mist of the time, but the screen goes blank and reboots at least once a day. Would it be a good idea to reflash to jb, and do a complete wipe of the phone? Are my old apps from jb maybe messing things up? Google maps froze up a couple times which had never happened before, so I'd like to fix that as well.

Thanks

You could root, back up necessary apps and their datas with titanium backup, do a factory reset, reroot after that, and restore your apps. Might get rid of the glitch.

His utility does not work for KitKat. It was made for an earlier version. But motopocalypse in Matts utility works if your phone is rooted on stock KitKat. Which is possible now.

Yes! You can use the motopacalypse apk! It's very easy.

One quick question:

If I wanted the status and Nav bars to be somewhat transparent like in jb stock, any advice?

I've xposed and gravity box, but couldn't find anything that wasn't 100% transparent.

Thanks
