I've literally have tried every method I could find and I can't get root. I've come closest with the one click recovery because it reboots my device, but it doesn't install the recovery or give me root. It took me about five minutes on my Razr. Am I missing something obvious?

Yeah this absolutely doesn't work. It just tells me to reboot but none of the recovery is flashed. I'm getting so frustrated. What is the problem?

I got a Droid Razr M for an upgrade, Worked great so i rooted it, Still worked great all that day, then i went to sleep and when i woke and the WiFi would not work!
The toggle switch turned a darker gray, When i tap it it turns on then in a split second turns back off.
I have done a Factory Data Reset and then i did a hard reset and then i wiped the hole thing out and re flashed it to its original state. Still would not work!
So as a last resort contact Motorola for support and they tell me that i had rooted my device and there is nothing they can do. I didn't say anything about rooting it so they must be logging all users data. (Invasion of Privacy?)
So i am back here again, Not being able to use WiFi, On a 2GB/M plan. f%$king peace of $#!+.
Nothing else is bad! Its just the wifi!?

It is probably your fault. A broken radio is your burden why do you think they do not want you rooting? The radio partition can get borked very easily. You need to renew it.

For a locked phone?
I just realized you never went to my restore thread. That explains your confusion. It's link is in the middle of my goodies page. I put it in my signature now.

Ok, SaturnsVoid... so, first, sorry to hear about the problem. Motorola/VZ is giving you BS... rooting won't break your WiFi unless you did something or installed something that would...
What's your current system version?
Have you taken any OTAs since you had it? If not, you may still be able to unlock.
Also, may want to try using WiFi Connection Fixer on the Play Store (requires root...)
If those don't work, try PMing me... I can help you work it out...
So I just came across this tweet from droidx - https://youtu.be/QicDqTKb_sU supposedly this root method will work with any android phone 5.1.1 or lower. Lots of caution needed here due to the origin and amount of permissions needed, but he did show it rooting a Verizon note 4. I have the apk but haven't tried it as I'm using a prerooted image and haven't flashed back to stock.
http://www.kingroot.net
UPDATED INFO (5/13/15)
1) English version is available here through XDA (LINK);
2) This is a temporary root that doesn't survive a reboot (this is due to write protection); and
3) A permanent root solution (for the Note 4) is being worked on off of XDA (due to some thread circumstances) (reference is here).
Right now there is no word of anyone working on a Droid Turbo permanent root solution.
New perma-root discussion for the Note 4 is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60713495
Update (5/18/15)
1) There is a new script out that will delete kinguser and install supersu instead! The link is here. Keep in mind that this script will need to be modified for our device, but according to the script authors it should be applicable.
2) It has been recommended to soft reboot the device using this app from the play store. There are a million of these type of apps available, but this one is being used on the Note 4 side.
Tried installing and Android warned me of "code that attempts to bypass Android security" text box and I clicked don't install.

Download the version directly from their website. I'm going to remove the English site link.
The official version doesn't have that issue.
I forwarded over to @JustinCase but he doesn't have time to dig into it.

Of course it attempts to bypass Android security, it's an app that gives you root.

I just read a ton of the note 4 thread, and many people had to try a few times to get it to work. Supposedly this is just a temp root method on devices with write protection. If you do get root, try a reboot and see if it sticks.
I'm not sure if this method in it's current form gets us anything over what we have now but it could lead to more.
Mine failed too

I've heard enabling allow mock locations might be necessary.
They are working on a perm method but nothing yet. This is very interesting.
FYI this doesn't install SuperSU or let it be installed.

Hi despite my limited rooting knowledge I thought I'd try a beta test for a Rom. I downloaded the kernel and bootloader I needed to flash and did these via Odin. I flashed the Rom and it booted fine, but now my screen will not work correctly. I have to press and inch above whatever it is that i'm trying to press, even with the s pen. When I realized this problem I wiped the phone using TWRP and flashed Cm again except the problem was still there once the phone booted. I have now wiped the phone and flashed stock 5.1.1 onto my Note 4 and the problem is still there. I'm really starting to panic now. Can someone help?
Downgrade to 5.0.1. If problem still persists your screen might actually be broken otherwise its a software problem.
The screen worked completely fine before I flashed the kernel so surely it's something to do with software? I'm scared i've broke my phone
Easily fixed. Give me a minute.

For a long time I've been subscribed to a thread regarding the matter but recently it has become very inactive. Anyways, does anyone have a root method for it? If you don't at the moment could you help a lot of people out and try to figure out a method to root it? (There are a lot of people looking for a root method for this device)
I agree. This phone is by no means perfect, but root and all things that follow would improve it greatly.
I second your request. Help. Please. Anyone?
Sorry for not replying I have recently figured out how to access the recovery mode so here is what you do...
First you Power Off your device
Second you boot up your device but instead of just pressing power you need to press and hold the volume up button and keep holding it until your screen goes black then you should be in recovery mode
P.S. if you want to get it with adb commands just do adb reboot recovery
All we need to do now is figure out how to unlock the bootloader. With adb commands you need to eaither download Android SDK or go to the XDA thread with a quick installer of the drivers. Link to thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Another thing if you want to get into Factory Test Mode(FTM Mode) instead of holding volume up hold volume down.
Hope this helps towards rooting the device!

Hi All,
My bro-in-law passed me his phone to fix, and can't get past the bluetooth and network wi-fi setup screens. I guess the next step is to reflash it, but he never had USB developer mode and the bootloader unlocked to begin with.
So I am stuck on what to do now. Any advice?
(Yes, I did do the Recovery mode thing and reset to factory too) .
Thanks.

You cannot unlock the bootloader unless allow OEM Unlock is turned on in developer options.
Usb debugging is not available in bootloader mode.

I misread. I was under the impression the bootloader was unlocked. But as sdshadow said. Your basically stuck.. Last resort you can try to sideload ota zip in recovery. Hope you gets it figured out. Good luck.
Thanks. I did sideload last night, and discovered you don't need the bootloader unlocked for that.
Still didn't make a different though.. Lol. I think it's a hardware issue.
