Is JB 4.1.2 supposed to be better or something?

I have been avoiding the constant incesant prompt to install the new update 4.1.2 as I did not know what it had to offer.
IMO, these phones are running on what now are obsolete, outdated hardware. they're meant to be ran by bigger processors & more ram. case & point - to ask em to run the new stuff, one could expect them to run slower.
So I accidently hit "install" about a month ago. My google search takes 10 seconds to upload. so does my text and my maps. I'm not fond of it one bit.
Thats my experience. is this supposed to be a better version than ICS? It seemed like ICS ran a whole lot smoother on the razr. any opinions?
thanks

Hi,
I mostly was active on Desire HD, Galaxy S and HD2 threads so far.
I just got a Razr few days ago and been reading and searching but cannot find way to root it.
It is XT910K model, from South Korea, running ICS 4.0.4., system version 67.42.46.xt910k.kt.en.kr with firmware configuration gas_asia_spydericskt_p009, build number 6.74-27_sa-46.
Does anyone knows how to root this version of the Razr?
Thanks.

Hi, where I can find the Linux files directly?

I already rooted my phone with this method, but it is redundant to run a linux virtual machine on a Linux system.

Thanks

Did everything step by step from Razrguy's YouTube guide and everything went well in less than 5 minutes.
Thanks bro!

That china app worked for me, but could only remove the chinese apk inside the system folder with an app called “sd maid“. Root explorer was not able to delete system app

I had to program my dad's RAZR to work on page plus, does this root method un-program it? i had to program it again when i updated to 4.1.2 and i deleted the files needed to program it. So does this unprogram it?
