[Q] Razr HD reflashing need help!!!!

[ziekxq]

Hi, I have Razr HD from Verizon which is currently running Roger's firmware: 98.21.122002.XT925.RCI.en.CA (android 4.1.2), baseband: vanquish_u_bp_100700.220.65.33p bulid number: 9.8.2q-8-xt925_vql-12.2.

I am having problem connecting this thing to my pc.

The USB composite part gets installed but rest of the interfaces dont. I even tried using Motorola's software to update the drivers but still no go.
My phone is unlocked and I am using a different carrier, and I was wondering if I can reflash it to the newer Verizon firmware (4.1.2) would that take away my unlock? Also is there a way to reflash the same firmware (4.1.2) that I got above.

Also when I go into storage and click on USB connection and then click on MTP, and as soon as I exit out of that window, and go back to check if MTP is still checked it I find that it automatically gets unchecked. (Mainly this is my problem which is why I'm seeking to reflash my firmware in hopes to fix the issue and that the drivers won't get installed).

Any help would be appreciated!!!

Thought I would give android another try but all fails, back to an iPhone.

Have you tried on another PC?
Don't blame an OS if you flashed Rogers (XT925 firmware) on a Verizon device (XT926) and something went wrong that's your fault.
Read which drivers its looking for. Looks like XT925. You don't even have that, download the drivers manually and try again

I have tried 5 different PC's with no result. I tried to look for manual drivers but couldn't find any on the web, and if you mean to say driver's from Motorola's website, well, I have already tried those and they didn't work. Everything else works fine beside connecting to the PC, and the only way for me to transfer files from my iPhone is through SD Card which is a pain. I would appreciate it if you direct me to the right place to download drivers manually.

Any clues why a phone would show up under adb devices when connected in normal mode, but not show up when in fastboot? I really wanna unlock my phone...

The thing is I got the phone with that OS installed on it. That is why I was wondering if i can reflash it to verizon firmware and if i do that will i still maintain my unlock. Also I know how to mess around with iPhones but no clue what how to do it with androids. So any help in right direction or if it is possible to flash it to verizon firmware would be helpful.

It can't be done, it can be done? something of a reply would be nicer than pure silence.

dude, what are you trying to unlock? bootloader or network? I believe flashing whatever u want will NOT impact either:good:
Sorry didn't follow your query

OK so this is what I'm trying to do... I got the phone with above firmware as mentioned in my first post. I can't connect to the PC using the USB and I believe its because of the jelly bean version I got. So I am trying to reinstall a different version of jelly bean. My phone is from Verizon and I was thinking of installing Verizon's version of jelly bean and was wondering how can I do that and if I end up installing Verizon's jelly bean would that effect my unlock.

flashing verizon will NOT make you lose network unlock. So flash away, try another micro usb cable if you have one laying around, just in case.
JB wont screw up pc detecting the MOTO.

when yout MOTO is plugged in, gointo device manager and see if it is showing under portable device, just to make sure the driver is properly installed

Thanks for the confirmation. Now my only problem is how exactly I do a flash to Verizon's JB. I'm not a computer noob its just I am android noob. For years I was on iPhone and I know how to do stuff on that but not On android... Also I have tried changing 4 different cables three Motorola ones and one from different company and I have tired 4 or 5 different computers as well. The problem is the drivers don't get installed I have downloaded the stuff from Motorola's website and it still doesn't work.

So my question is what is the procedure to flash my firmware to Verizon's firmware. Is there a really good guide out there? I know people will say go search for one but I just wanted to ask the community first so that I don't end up finding a bad guide on my own and brick my phone.
