[Q] What is the latest radio?

I've had a few issues and was wondering if maybe I missed updating my baseband.

That is the latest baseband.

How does one update the radio anyway?

You can just flash it in recovery. I think Avi has one in his thread. If you can't find it, I have one I can upload, but I'll have to do it when I get home to my computer.

Are you sure you installed the correct version? I would remove and reinstall.

[Q] Should I downgrade to have access to a root method?

Hello. I'm on the new system version 98.18.94 and I was curious if you guys think I should use the droid razr m utility to downgrade to an earlier version so I can root it. Is it suggested that I do that or should I wait for a root method for my current version?

There is no DG.
See my stickys about ...94 or ...1

Yes there is. I have downgraded using the utility before. It deletes everything but I have a backup on my SD card

Using the first option, it downgrades it to stock jellybean

Using the utility before doesn't mean you can use it now. On this latest OTA (and I think the one before), they got rid of the ability to downgrade. There are many people that have tried to downgrade and they get a fastboot fail, but since you're the ONLY one that seems to have this magical ability, go ahead and try it. :good:

That utility is for 2 OTAs ago. If you use it on .94, you risk a brick.

I've bricked my phone before while I was on this update. I used the utility to revive my phone. It worked just fine.

That utility was designed for two OTAs ago. So, if you used it, you would be on that system version if your bootloader was unlocked or you would have a soft brick and fastboot fail if your BL was locked. If you took the utility and replaced the .xml with .94 (which I've seen some people do), then that's why it would be working now. If you didn't replace the file, then I call BS because your system version is still .94.

I am as confused as you my friend

I'm not confused. If you tell us straight, then we can help a lot more.
Here's how it goes:
- Utility 1.10 was designed for 98.12.4(4.1.1) that came out early this year.
- Utility 1.20 was designed for 98.15.66 or 98.16.1(4.1.2)(I can't remember the exact version) and it had the BL unlock tool in it
There has been no updated utility for the last two OTAs because Matt didn't think it was worth it. Some guys over in the HD forum updated the HD utility to include the newest firmware, but there's been nothing like this for the M.

Okay so I have the razr m utility 1.20 and I tried downgrading with rsd lite recently which obviously didn't work. But it was stuck in ap fastboot mode so I used his utility to flash the stock 4.1.2 system, kernel, radio, etc. It worked just fine. I don't know why, I don't know how, but it worked.

Yeah, but it didn't downgrade you because you're still .94. It probably flashed the baseband (which is possible on a locked BL), which cleared the fastboot flash fail, but it obviously didn't flash the system or kernel because you're still on .94.

You fastbooted ...94 boot.img, not ...66 (or ...78) boot.img as you are locked.

I had to re-update my phone to .94 again after that whole thing

If you cannot get to recovery, you should consider doing more research before rooting or any other modding. How would you fix your device should you soft brick it?
Turn off your device, hold down volume up, volume down and power. The menu will come up and then select recovery.
As for kernel... On your phone go to settings and then about phone.

I suspect that recovery.img flash failed during last step of hydrogen peroxide root.
If flash failed completely, you would have older kernel used for rooting, that is flashed over recovery, after rooting recovery is flashed over older kernel.
If you can't get to recovery using instructions posted ubove, I suggest redownloading hydrogen peroxide and go through the steps again.

Not disagreeing, but how would this impact his battery negatively? If it truly does, I'd like to know for future reference!

Thank you, I will replace the battery by Wednesday and see if it makes a difference.
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

I think its just a bad battery.
Reinstall the ROM, or just kill everything running In the backgorund

Thanks guys, I bought a new battery and everything is working great. And am feeling the use of xposed and modules available.
