Can't find it on my mobile. What are the benefits of a baseband and can I flash it with a locked bootloader using flashtool? And what's the best one? Sorry if what I'm asking is already on the forum. I just don't know which one is the best and can be flashed with a locked bootloader.

The -36 baseband from the .368 firmware is the best and you can just flash it with the latest flashtool no problem

Can I root and unlock my XT907 running 98.18.78.XT907.Verizon.en.us?
I want to start flashing ROMs (Specifically CM10.2) and what not, but I don't have root access. Directions are unclear whether I need to root before I unlock the boot loader, or if unlocking will also root my phone. I tried to root several times tonight, but was unsuccessful, I think this is due to the fact that I was not rooted when I accepted the OTA. Or it could be my wife's crappy computer?!?
Please let me know how to proceed. I appreciate the help.

Is there a way to revert to an older firmware...then root and unlock?

There's a thread over on Rootz where they're talking about it. Currently testing SS.

Hey guys, I just got a factory replacement for this phone and it came with the latest update. I know I can't unlock my bootloader but is there a way to root?

As far as i know there is a possible root. Is it XT912, or XT902? That'd be helpful information. Also your probably ruining jellybean(4.1.2) which you can root. There is a forum explaining the root process for a razr m using motochopper.

Hello. I'm on the new system version 98.18.94 and I was curious if you guys think I should use the droid razr m utility to downgrade to an earlier version so I can root it. Is it suggested that I do that or should I wait for a root method for my current version?

There is no DG.
See my stickys about ...94 or ...1
Yes there is. I have downgraded using the utility before. It deletes everything but I have a backup on my SD card

Using the first option, it downgrades it to stock jellybean

Using the utility before doesn't mean you can use it now. On this latest OTA (and I think the one before), they got rid of the ability to downgrade. There are many people that have tried to downgrade and they get a fastboot fail, but since you're the ONLY one that seems to have this magical ability, go ahead and try it. :good:

That utility is for 2 OTAs ago. If you use it on .94, you risk a brick.
I've bricked my phone before while I was on this update. I used the utility to revive my phone. It worked just fine.

That utility was designed for two OTAs ago. So, if you used it, you would be on that system version if your bootloader was unlocked or you would have a soft brick and fastboot fail if your BL was locked. If you took the utility and replaced the .xml with .94 (which I've seen some people do), then that's why it would be working now. If you didn't replace the file, then I call BS because your system version is still .94.

I'm not confused. If you tell us straight, then we can help a lot more.
Here's how it goes:
- Utility 1.10 was designed for 98.12.4(4.1.1) that came out early this year.
- Utility 1.20 was designed for 98.15.66 or 98.16.1(4.1.2)(I can't remember the exact version) and it had the BL unlock tool in it
There has been no updated utility for the last two OTAs because Matt didn't think it was worth it. Some guys over in the HD forum updated the HD utility to include the newest firmware, but there's been nothing like this for the M.
Okay so I have the razr m utility 1.20 and I tried downgrading with rsd lite recently which obviously didn't work. But it was stuck in ap fastboot mode so I used his utility to flash the stock 4.1.2 system, kernel, radio, etc. It worked just fine. I don't know why, I don't know how, but it worked.

Yeah, but it didn't downgrade you because you're still .94. It probably flashed the baseband (which is possible on a locked BL), which cleared the fastboot flash fail, but it obviously didn't flash the system or kernel because you're still on .94.

You fastbooted ...94 boot.img, not ...66 (or ...78) boot.img as you are locked.
I had to re-update my phone to .94 again after that whole thing
