Unlocked Verizon RAZR HD again plz help!! really confused

I saw another thread about unlocked phone got locked..plz dont lock mine cuz registering and loging in is extremely hard to [email protected][email protected] im looking for help sincerely instead of what kinda donation..
I got a Verizon razr hd from a blackmarket online last month (let me explain it. Its impossible to get a razr hd from a official way cuz moto cut its Asian service(im in PRC). Only some cheap moto entry-level or old-fashioned Android devices can be got from official store. Samsung Galaxy S3 is much more reachable cuz Samsung has its official store in my city but im not addicted to its design..also i kept using moto device from a moto beeper about 20 years ago so i dont wanna change another brand) i always go around here but i cannot register an account cuz verification imagine cannot show up correctly due to damned GFW. Finally an US friend of mine helped me to register successfully..
Thats enough for background i think.
Whatever, i got a really strange phone. Its a Verizon razr hd and its unlocked... i dont care about that but the original rom of it is JB 4.11not ICS 4.04. Even this JB is different from your JB from OTA recently.(i cannot get OTA. It shows me that my rom is the latest) So i cannot get it rooted by the method you provided(keep root from ICS).
I have checked iemi code and whatever i can check of this phone the moment i got it ,so i dont think its a fake one but a smuggling one .
So the problem is..can i use rsd to flash a original Verizon 4.04 rom to my phone and root it then keep it and update to Verizon JB 4.1 in order to get root?
Im poor in English gramma so im not sure whether you guys get it..
Here are two shots of it, i cannot post URL and pics yet so plz delete the spaces in the URL

First, to root it, you have to flash the rom to ICS 4.04, then root, root keeper, and follow that process. THEN OTA to JB 4.1 and finish the process. This is well documented in other portions of the forum.
And the other thing, isn't this against terms discussing/questioning this kind of phone???

Thanks for your response. Rsd cannot identify my fastboot while im trying to do so. Maybe its version is too out of date.
Err..if it does go against principle here plz lock /delete it

[Q] stock rom activation help

My friend had an HTC evo 3d and it broke so I bought him an epic 4g really cheap on eBay (not the touch). I rooted it and put cm 9 on it and sent him the phone. He lives in Colorado and I live in Louisiana. When he finally got the phone today he said the sprint store couldn't activate it and I read that you gotta be on the same android version as stock rom which is GB on that phone. Would he be able to flash a GB rom over the ICS rom in CWM? I Want To Try to make it as simple as possible for him because he is a noob to this stuff. Thanks

[Q] Tring to unroot LG G2X

I bought a LG G2X from someone and they failed to tell me the phone was rooted, I have no clue what to do with a rooted phone and honestly I don't care to have that access. Could someone please help me unroot this phone. I know enough about cell phones since I did sell them. When I got the phone it was in safe mode, I rebooted it and did a wipe of the phone and seen that it had superuser on it. I have all the information with the phone but not sure what to do so that I can update this device. PLEASE HELP! I can't afford to brick the phone at this moment since I have no clue what I'm doing. Thank you.

I'll tell you off the bat I do not know how to unroot this device. I will also tell you that this phone is worth its weight in sh*t if its not rooted. If you do a little reading around the stickies you'll see this phone is nearly impossible to hard brick. Most of the time a full wipe and reflash or nandroid save fixes the worst of issues. We have had some amazing developers create awesome software for this device that I think you would love to experience.

Thank you, the only reason i want to unroot is since I can't update my phone it keeps turning off for no reason and sometimes it will take 15 minutes to place a call, I need to shut it off or do a battery pull all the time for the phone to function, thank you very very much for your info I greatly appreciate it I'm thinking it over or I need to figure out how to upgrade while rooted

When you say "upgrade" do you mean the software on the phone or upgrading to a new phone in general? If you do some searching you can find some stock unrooted roms that you can flash I believe. If I were you I would flash vanilla Cyanogen Mod 7. It is the most stable ROM for this device and offers wonderful customization options. The only thing that will not work is blue tooth calling. You can find the latest nightly build at get.cm. If you wish to make battery life better there are great developers for this device who have manufactured some awesome kernels that can be overclocked and undervolted. I'm currently running CM7 with Trinity's MAX 1500 kernel overclocked to 1.2mhz and undervolted across the board. I get amazing battery life and buttery smooth performance.

Use ROM for recovery nvflash method to return to stock. Then you can update either OTA or using the kdz method.

[ROM] ROM for recovery G2X under the NVFLASH

In the absence of a valid argument, 2+1=3 may be used to explain why the g2x did not get the ICS update!

Buy New LG G3 (ATT) - Yes or No? Lolllipop bugs?

Howdy folks,
I was going to buy a new ATT LG G3 (D850) to replace an aging Galaxy S3. At $250 it seems a good deal.
Then I read the bad news about how lollipop 5.0 push screwed things up? Should I stay away from this due to Lollipop 5.0 issues?
[I generally don't put custom roms due to lack of time, but if there is one that's bug free/stable I can consider that]
Thanks

I would recommend go for newer phone than older model. Try LG G4 or Samsung phone as your new phone.
As far as lollipop issues in LG G3, I didn't find any issue in my phone, I was very much happy.
Hope this helps.

I just got a new g3 from someone off CL. Definitely worth it. Took me 5 mins to root and put resurrection mm on here. Phone flies and no major bugs that hinder me from loving this phone

While I would recommend a new model (for LG the G4 or V10), the G3 is not a bad model for $250, especially if new. In regards to Lollipop, there are some minor bugs, but no more than I have seen on any other model in my opinion. I have not really noticed any bugs

It depends on what you want to do with your phone. What I mean by that is so you want custom roms? Or at least want to root and install a custom recovery?
Idk about ATT but I'm on Verizon and a lot of there phones have locked bootloader or no way to loki hack and install a custom recovery so that's one reason I still have my g3 after a little over a year and have not bought a g4 [emoji14]
So I say if that's what you want do some research and see what ATT phones can do that.
Also would be using a contract update or just buying it straight out, if it's a contract try to get something newer if you using a contract not the g3 is a great choice I'm running cm 13 and love my g3

Well I have had my verizon G3 since August of 2014 so it's been rooted ever since I got it . But from what I have seen on forms. You should be able to downgrade the software from the latest to older ones then root and install twrp. Unless the latest update blocks that

[Q] SCH I535 4.4.2 bone stock > Rooted. Is it possible?

Looking to put some feelers out about rooting my dad's phone since it isn't acting right anymore and thanks to VZWs crap upgrade plan he is on, he will have this phone for another year or longer. Can you root and apply one of the custom roms like hyperdrive or even a MM rom? I'd be fine with CM as well.
Anything to make his phone not run like crap. I haven't tweaked an S3 in years, but I do remember that I think VZW released an OTA that made root and boot loader much harder or totally locked it down.
I was hoping someone might have a workaround that still works.
SCH I535 4.4.2 I535OYUDNE1 baseband
KOT49H.I535VRUDNE1 build.
Thanks!
