[TOOLS] DROID RAZR Utility XT912 Jellybean -- Windows + Mac + Linux (All In One!)

[mattlgroff]

It does not say waiting for device. It is plugged in.

If it doesn't say waiting the its not running or looking for your phone. As per directions did you extract the utility to its own folder on your desktop? If you are running inside a zip it will NOT work or even look for the phone.

I bet that is the problem. I am on a different computer. Where can I get the correct motorola drivers? what version?

And.....by the way.... Thank you for the help!

IMO Nothing says "thank you" better than a donation using the link Matt provides at the bottom of each post.

In my haste, I didn't extract the files. WOW, I feel bad for wasting your time, but at least you were able to tell me what I was doing wrong! Got it, though. It appears I lost root. I had used voodoo ota rootkeeper before.

Thanks for all your help!!!!

Quote from OP..

- Windows Instructions
Extract .zip to its own folder on the Desktop.
Install the required drivers. The folder with the drivers is called "Drivers [WINDOWS ONLY]" and is included in the Utility folder.
Double click the ".bat" file. This will be called "WindowsUtility.bat" the image is just for reference.

This would have saved us both a lot of grief if you read these. I don't want to seem rude and I try to help everyone with issues on every forum that I can... but really?

Thanks matt! Wasn't even considering upgrading to jb from 215 until I saw this. Once I download post upgrade on my next day off I'll use your magic "buy me a six-pack" link to, well, buy you a six pack. Thanks again

Just getting a few things straight before I do this.
I have used your other utilities and they worked great.
I am running ICS 215 and I am rooted.
Can I just run this utility and go straight to jellybean or do I have to go back to 211 and unroot.

From reading the posts on here I can and that would be great.

Thanks in advance

No but you can root using the included RAZR Blade exploit by Djrbliss.

OTA Rootkeeper works by protecting your root in /system/usr/we-need-root/su-backup and using this fastboot replaces the whole system partition.

Thanks for the donation.

Ok sooooooo, i went ahead and ran the root exploit in the utility but came across a problem. I'll try to attach an image of it here if the forum will let me.

You need a data wipe. Updated or Used Smart actions makes it not work.

Wiped data and cache twice each from recovery then re-selected option 1. Waited for it to finish, then selected the Razr blade option. And it failed again with the same problems and some new one's at the end.

Did you update smart actions after booting? Not supposed to if you did.

Nope, it never really gave me a chance to. As soon as it booted up i went straight to smart actions and clicked get started, then battery, save, home, and hit enter on my comp like it said. That's why i'm confused lol.
