XT905 KitKat update - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all. Can i flash thru RSD-Lite latest sbf for XT907 to get the KitKat bootloader and kernel? Would my phone work same as now? Is it possible to flash this upgrade?
Due to XT905 don't have any OTA updates, and CM is going to support only KitKat kernel/bootloader - i want to try.

You should be able to. But, right now, its better to stay with jellybean because of the ROM availability and all of that stuff. That's why I downgraded from kk to jb

Yes, you could. But I believe the Modem included in this update won't work on the XT905 and the JB Modem you have installed won't work with KikKat.

VZW Motorola Droid Razr M

Signature verification failed.
Never rooted, No custom recovery, and I personally have not modified system files at all.
Is it possible for me to use RSDlite to apply the update or should I get CWM?

Is this doable even with safestrap installed? I'm currently running a backup of ICS via safestrap in my ROM Slot 1 and was wondering if it would work to flash JB over it.

You can use this & restore your data back when done-the steps are in the op.
If all you need is custom recovery. Rom manager works and will allow you to flash cwmr right from your rooted phone- no pc needed.

[Q] how can I m rooting my razr kitkat updated to 4.4.2 stock ROM

would be a help to root my DROID RAZR M, ota updated to 4.4.2 kitkat
If your asking about root there isn't any for 4.4.2. That I know of

At the moment there is no confirmed exploit for 4.4.2 unless you have an unlocked bootloader. Still holding out hope that someone can figure it out. If not, I'm still perfectly happy with the update. My phone is substantially snappier.

This works like a charm but for some reason I couldn't connect to WiFi after flashing back to JB. Now if I flash forward again to KK, the WiFi is fine again. I've been meaning to get a logcat to diagnose it but I haven't had time.

That's because the KK modem isn't fully compatible with the JB bootloader (and vice versa).

Yes but flash back flashes the modem, I do believe.
