I am on the verge of giving up. I have tried everything I can. The phone is on 4.4.2
I tried towelroot, and that said the phone was unsupported. I tried TwerkyMyMoto, which did not work, after reading the thread apparaently it does not work in KitKat. I tried another one that I had faith in, closed the page so forgot what it was called, but the file that I got was "RAZRi_Root_Windows.zip" but after running it, I got the following...

EDIT: Seems like the site does not let me link to a picture, and when I use the sites image feature, it just shows an error. soooo... https:// imgur . com/ 0Gt68pX
There were also talks of ClockWorkMod, which when I tried to install with ROM Manager, and it said that it was unsupported.
My bootloader is unlocked. I don't know what to try! Please help.

First you have to unlock the bootloader
and install TWRP and motoboot from fastboot

Code:
fastboot flash motoboot motoboot
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then from TWRP you must mount the partition system and install RAZRiRoot2.zip

RAZRiRoot2.zip MD5: a60a6312f7ebac4ccc66f7503dbff089

TWRP-3.2.1-0-f2fs-Flashable.zip MD5: a95a8c0ce1a182af4d3c26f522b0db6c

motoboot.zip MD5: 4cc4f2c54914b939563cb3d37bbecb55

That's it

hey @sercari,
thanks for trying to help, but it seems the recovery cant be installed without rooting (at least it doesnt work for me), im not sure about motoboot. anyway, the question is how to root the phone?
