[Q] Razr M bricked while flashing 183.46.15 firmware - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have a problem regarding my Razr M xt907 (firmware: 182.46.15).
i was searching any method to root my phone and found this method for 183.46.15 (but my firmware was 182.46.15) :
forum . xda-developers . com/droid-razr-m/general/root-droid-razr-m-xt907-183-46-15-t3030852
I tried this method to root but i did'nt work. Somebody had written there that if I flash 183.46.15 using rsdlite than root can be possible using the said method.
So i downloaded the firmware: vzW_XT907_4.4.2-KDA20.62-15.1_1FF.xml
but flash failed at 15/17 system.img,
now my phone is stuck at AP fastboot,
Fastboo reason : flash failure
does someone know how to i can get out of this?????

Did it actually fail or did you stop the flash because it took so long? System usually takes a while to flash.

It was automatically failed.
But now the problem is solved, after I have download the latest rsdlite 6.1.6.
Older version was 5.7
And flashing successful with this version 6.1.6.
Now my firmware is changed from 182.46.15 to 183.46.15 and also after that I got Root access.
Thanks for your concern

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.

Which system version do you have? If it's the latest OTA, you need Motochopper 1.3 to root it. Also, if it is the latest, you can't install cyanogenmod because the bootloader unlock is patched...

[Q] Can't boot into recovery

I can't boot into recovery. I rooted using towelroot, and unlocked my bootloader with Motopocalypse. I'm running Android 4.4.2. Recovery installed through fastboot. I have tried TWRP and ClockworkMod. When I boot into recovery, I get the Motorola unlocked device warning for a few minutes, then the device reboots normally. It does this when booting into recovery from the buttons, from adb, and from holding Power + Volume Up + Volume Down and selecting it.. help please?
Try flashing the recovery with rashr

What version did you use? Use dhacker's 2.7.1.0 TWRP, it is compatible with the KK update.

Use his links and then you can use rashr to flash a recovery from your storage.

Yes - flash dhacker's Kit Kat TWRP 2.7.1.0 and it will work. The BIOS (bootloader) for the RAZR M's Kit Kat update works differently now. I had the same problem as you, until I asked for the lead on where I should obtain the recovery. I used RDS Lite with modified XML to only flash the recovery but you ought be able to use any tool offered herein to flash it.

Can you post for me what worked for you? There were two quotes there and I didn't know which one worked and also do you have custom ROMs?

Use rashr, but this time, use the choose from storage option.

Or if you use RSD Lite: download it onto your PC then edit RSD Lite update XML to only flash the recovery image and place the TWRP image into the same folder XML is in (you may just rename TWRP file to recovery.img to make matter easier). And, delete MD5 checksum in recovery line so it can flash.

Most recent update

Ok so I have all but the most recent update on my phone and its rooted and I have twrp installed as a custom recovery. From what I understand I can not flash the most recent update because its not a full update it just tweeks some things. So to my question is there anyway to flash the stock recovery so I can get the update.

Just flash the Unofficial 183.46.15 with RSD Lite.

I just updated but didn't lose root. :good:
A coworker with a RAZR HD said he updated I checked his root and it remained as well. Apparently update does not break existing root.

[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?
