My RAZR M only has 8GB of internal space, when trying to create a ROM Slot 2 I am unable to due to lack of space. Is there any way to make it so ROM Slots can be created on the SD card?

Nope... think about that - do you want /system on a possibly removable storage medium? I don't even know if its possible lol

The new safestrap allows for flashing custom ROMs into the stock slot. Try it, it's amazing!

You did that and it worked? What ROM? Did you do anything special? I tried that the other night and had to rsd my phone back to ICS and reroot and update! Sup with that. I used cm 10 and it made my phone go into fast boot mode. "Failed HAB check" I think is what it said.
you can only used it stock type modded firmware i think ? DHB and other stock like ones.

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner... BDH is what I used.
Follow this method.
1. Create ROM slot 1
2. Load BDH rom how you like it
3. Nandroid
4. Activate stock rom slot.
5. Delete rom slot 1
6. Wipe everything X2
7. Restore nandroid into stock rom slot
8. Wipe cache and dalvik
9. Reboot
Have fun!

Should have looked at this yesterday. You the ss guru! If you hadn't responded I would have given up. My hands shook bad both times as I rsd my phone. I bricked and broke many in my quest for root and ROM.
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium
I know that feeling. Last night I got my phone stuck on boot animation didn't have safestrap installed so I had to flash the firmware through rsd. My hands was shaking too because the flash kept failing. Finally I had to do a factory data and cache wipe to get it to run. I won't make that mistake again lol

I have CWM 6.0.1.0 on my nexus 7. I was rooted but running the stock ROM. I wanted to flash CM10. I booted into recovery, wiped cache, dalvik, and factory reset. I then flashed the .zip file. When I rebooted the device it never got out of the CM boot screen. That circle just kept spinning. I tried the toolkit but the drivers aren't really working on my computer (crappy old XP laptop). I have formatted the system and SD card out of desperation which was honestly a stupid thing to do. So, where I am at now. I have no way to boot into android. Everything is wiped and formatted. Toolkit, adb, nor fastboot will work. I thought fastboot would save me but I can't get it work. Not even on my wife's mac. So what are my options? Please let me know if there is something important I am leaving out.
It can take a while to get a new rom up and running. How much time did you give CM to install before you interrupted it?

I let it go for at least 30 minutes. I finally got adb to push a ROM to the device. Problem solved. Thanks though.

Thats possible. I tried re-flashing it numerous times but they all got stuck in boot. I am now up and running with SmoothROM. I might have to re-download CM10 sometime and try again.
Hey guys I now has a similar problem. I flashed a bad copy of my Rom and when it failed to boot I too wiped everything in desperation. I know I'm an idiot! Now I need to push both a Rom an kernal to my root directory but I'm not clear on how to install my kernal. Once I push my Rom I can use my recovery to install the Rom. But how do I install the kernel? I'm using cleanrom which comes zipped with the kernal. I can't fastboot flash it because I cannot turn on USB debugging. Gary

To use fastboot you don't need to have switched on USB debugging, it's sufficient to go to bootloader mode and connect your PC to it.

make sure that the only custom recovery you have installed is safestrap 3.12, people have been having trouble installing ROMs because they have more then one recovery installed..
if it helps, delete slot 1 and start fresh again.
if that doesn't work.. launch the safestrap application and uninstall recovery (make sure you've deleted slot 1 first)
and then uninstall the app, and then you can install safestrap again... open the app install recovery and now you can try installing Eclipse again. hope it helps.

PAC can only be installed via TWRP.
see if you can add it to your external SD card via your PC, then insert the card into your phone and try flashing it that way.
Try downloading a lower OS of android for your phone and flash that, then do a system update. Also PAC can be installed with Clockwork mod because I'm running PAC right now, flashed using clockwork mod.

I can boot from the stock slot no problem. Any other slot just reboots to SU2-3 recovery.
I've recreated slot 1/restored a couple times.

What are you flashing? there are no roms for this phone. I just use SS to make backups in case I screw something up cant FXZ or you will lose root. So I don't know if they work or not.
Slots are useful for testing and tweaking without exploding your daily driver.

I guess so I just make a backup of stock slot then make changes any issues it boots into SS and I just install the backup saves time from making slots.

Yes you can make backups you can restore backups you just cannot make rom slots
Are there any other safe recoveries I could use? Sorry if this isn't the right place but I've been searching for hours and can't find anything...

If your boot loader is locked no its the only one
My friend (not a techy person) has a completely stock RAZR M which is bootlooping after a failed update. Phone itself has already been replaced but the old one has some important photos on it. I don't have the phone on me right now (will be trying to fix it tomorrow) but all my research tonight is telling me that data is probably unrecoverable. Figured I'd ask directly to be sure.
I will try booting to the stock recovery and clearing cache. My understanding is that ADB won't be able to pull files because my friend wouldn't have enabled USB debugging before this happened. A factory reset would wipe user files so that's no use.
Any tricks I can pull here? Possible to flash a custom recovery while bootlooping? Would that allow ADB access? I'd appreciate any help, so I don't have to deliver bad news
Look into house of moto... I believe (I've never used it) it has an option to flash without wiping internal SD (like I said I believe)... So you'll have to either flash the version s/he was on or a version higher... Then pull the files via USB or SD card...

That looks promising, thanks. I'll read up on it.
House of Moto using Keep Data or Universal should do the trick. Make sure to use the same firmware version the phone is on, such as do not downgrade. You can upgrade it though, so if unsure of version just get the newest version.
