Kernels from the RAZR HD (MAXX), Atrix HD, and RAZR M 905 can be used with little risk of a softbrick. ROMS from those phones can be used with little to no modification, but are more likely to fail (and probably will think you're running a different phone...)
I would not use an untested kernel/ROM unless you're used to softbricks and have the ability to fix them

Yeah I've seen things like dead rage and even though I don't want it, I can't find it anywhere. How often do users of the M use software from other phones? If it's compatible would it be in these forums?

I've never tried it there's really no purpose too and it probably would fail if your looking for dead rage there's an XT907 version over on DROID rzr

There's a few more ROMs over at droidrzr.com - that's where they're coming from

Does gingerbread work on the Droid X2?

Just curious, I'm thinking of getting the droid X2. Does the latest release work for this device?

My best guess says no. Different hardware means different drivers.
No, different phone, different hardware...

Planning to port CyanogenMod 9 to the XPRT

I plan on undergoing this process. As the title says. I believe the XPRT deserves ICS. And I wish to prove it. Anyone interested in helping or following please let me know!
Whoa thanks man! I wish I could help, but I know nothing about these things. Good luck! I would love to see ICS on this thing!

Do keep in mind though that I'm only 17 and still in high school and very frequently busy. I don't have tons of time.

Also. I believe I shall first do CM7. This is my first rom port after all.

The first task I am currently facing is the kernel. I need to get it from the stock rom. It's the only kernel for this phone and it is needed to run anything.

If anyone wants to join in. I'm no pro and I'm currently suffering from serious allergies or something. Either way I feel like death. This link is a base of what I'm doing somewhat http://apcmag.com/port-roms-to-your-android-device.htm
And I was using a official CM7 7.2.0 rom for a droid x as the secondary. It doesn't seem like the hardest task in the world honestly. Rongsang I think you should take this up. You probably have the skills to do so.
Sent from my MB612 using xda app-developers app
Sure. i'll download the cm7 for droid x and look into it,
I've decided to port CM7.2 rom from Defy as it has similar hardware as XPRT and it was previously successfully ported to Droid Pro. But I'm still unable to boot. Need some help.
Why are you unable to boot?

You have the kernel right? You cannot mix two different kernels. It will only work one device. So since no one has developed a kernel for the xprt you have 2 choices. Build your own. Or extract it from the stock.

This...actually doesn't look hard to do at all.

It looks easier than it is. I'm still not able to make it boot. Its a bit harder with locked bootloader and 2nd-init. Can't seem to find a guide to port locked bootloaders with 2nd-init. Need somebody with experience to start off this project.

May I ask are you using the boost or sprint model?

Maybe we should post this on the CyanogenMod forums to see if someone more experienced can help.

I was going to post it in the cyanogen forums but my phone isn't letting me register for some reason. I'll work on it when I'm home.

Any updates? I'm still stuck in a bootloop.

[Q] Porting Droid Razr M (XT907) roms to Razr M (XT905)

As the subject suggests. There are a few great devs doing some work on the XT907 (Droid Razr M) but we don't seem to have any action on the Aussie version. How difficult is it to mod the rom and get it into shape for our XT905's?
I know on the XT910 OG Razr they were doing this...does anyone know if it's going to happen with the M?
Cheers...
They probably already work with the XT905, as they are nearly the exact same phone.
I have had much experience in trying other ROM's that aren't for that specific phone and have had much luck with it.
Some of the stock based ROMs may not get signal on USC. AOSP ROMs like CyanogenMod and PAC should work just fine.

Google wallet

I'm new to the RAZR m scene but I was wondering if there's a hacked Google wallet we can load to make it work like my sgs 3 has for Verizon? If it's already been discussed to death I apologize.

I and other developers are working on it. The secure element is locked only for ISIS.

Hoping this is coming along? Any developments on this getting done?

Why no more wifi.

After running aokp for two weeks it now says can't validate.. CAA can someone help.

Are you using a Nexus 4 or RAZR M? I know the AOKP build for the RAZR M is not a daily driver. Plenty of bugs!
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium
Try re-booting. Like previously stated, AOKP is not stable for the M yet.
