Root Without Unlock

I am just curious if anyone has figured out a way to root the M on 4.1.2 without having to unlock the boot loader. Thanks.

There is no way to unlock the boot loader on the RAZR M (retail). As for the Electrify M (which I presume you own), achieving root from unlocking the boot loader the only valid method.

Big news today on this topic involving @djrbliss (Dan Rosenberg), per droidrzr.com. My OMAP phone can't use this method, but I wanted to give people on this forum a heads-up. So go check it out!

Thanks. I just never could figure out why the electrify 2 was rootable without unlock on 4.0.4 but the M couldn't be.

[Q] Phone stuck at boot animation

I was recently on the official pac man rom for the droid razr m (4.2.2) and I wanted to go back to stock. I used RSD to do so with 4.1.2 fastboot zip. Now my phone boots up and gets stuck at the boot animation. Can someone please help me fix this?

I fixed the problem, I used option 1 on the Droid Razr M 1.20 utility. But now I can't root my phone with the utility or motochopper itself. Thanks for replying though! Can someone help with my root problem?

[Q] motorola sign stuck

I have an razr droid m ( xt907) and i have rooted, but not unlocked and now i cannot get off the start emblem of motorola MMMM. I am a neewbeee and any help will do me good. I guess this is what i deserve but this is the only way i learn

Do you remember what your system version was? Which tool did you use to root it? What did you do to get stuck at the boot logo?

update fail

Install superSU from the app store and see if you still get root access from apps.
It used to happen to me. Apparently the phone was rooted it just didn't have superSU installed.

i tried it still nothing.. it says i have superuser already.. is this the reson i cant do verizon update?

I'm also having issues with the ota update. I'm rooted on 98.18.78 with locked boot loader. It fails about 30% then dead andy. I'm guessing the recovery is broken somehow. But I don't know how to flash the stock recovery if my bootloader is locked.

That's what I'm thinking to. It has a bad recovery. I tried using the old version of the RAZR m utility. But that didn't help at all :/

[Help] xt907 won't boot into recovery after unlocking

Hey guys. Sorry for this post. But a while back, I unlocked my xt907 using the SunShine S-OFF and unlock tool, and now I can't enter recovery in the bootloader settings. Literally, It justs hangs on the warning screen and then reboots with the Droid animation. I've tried reflashing the recovery image so much times now. So is there any way to fix this issue, or do I need to say that this phone's done for?

I am on the 4.4.2 182.46.15 update. As for the recovery, I tried flashing TWRP from the Droid RAZR m Utility

Thanks. I'm going to try that now
[EDIT] I reflashed the xt907 with RSD Lite and the latest firmware from @sd_shadow's page. And I can finally say is that it works! Hurrah!
