Does anyone know if the Droid Incredible 2 will have a locked bootloader? Im thinking of getting one, but definitely would want to be able to root it eventually. I would hate to get a phone and be stuck with the same ROM. Thanks.
Eh...

Someone will find a way. They always do
is there a way to flash an earlier version of the droid 2 global bootloader to my phone? and if so out if I wanted to where would I find the file? all help and advice is appreciated, I am still kind of learning and wish to learn more. I hope to become a developer of sorts one day.
If there was a way you wouldn't see as many people asking about sbf files and how to root 629. I wish there was a way but i'm pretty much looking at just coasting for now with my phone until sbf/root is discovered or i get a newer non-motorola phone. Which is a shame because i love their build quality and the sexy battery for the maxx.

Ahh. I understand. You're right though it's a shame because I love their build as well. Going to have to get a new phone or something. I'm sure their will be an sbf or way to get around bootloader stoner or later. Thank you for the input
I was thinking of switching to Droid 4 from Sprint OG Epic - my wife has a D2G. I never rooted her phone, partly because it was not necessary for her but partly because of the headache involved. This locked bootloader crap has put an end to thoughts of D4 for me though... will stay with the Epic and wait for a Sprint or VZW decent non-Moto slider.
Hello,
I am having severe problems after upgrading to JB.
WHAT I HAVE TRIED:
Newest Drivers installed
Droid Razr JB Utility XT912, Fully Extracted, ran the batch. Again from a different download site. Again after wiping cache & data through Rec.
Tried Droid Razr HD Utility 1.2, fail fail fail..., (probably from trying to downgrade)
Battery FULLY charged.
No way to tell if debugging is on...
Yes, I have went through Fastboot on phone.
Tried with W7 Home Prem & W7 Ultimate 32 & 64 bit.
JB installs with NO fails whatsoever from Utility.
Droid startup starts flawlessly, than BAM.
After startup though, no touch & this big software corruption chunk.
Hope you guys can help :crying:

This is the XT925/926 Forum, i think you are wrong here.
Maybe the DroidRazrHD Utility doesnt work because you dont have a Razr HD....
What may be wrong with the Droid Razr JB Utility, may not be answered here, i think...
But you could try to flash some .zip via recovery or an .sbf via RSDLite...
orteept which
Hello, I searched for Droid Razr & it brought me here. On the back of my phone it says XT912, XT925 is the same except it's GSM not CDMA, which is what mine is. Camera also says 1080p HD, Anyway, any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

No it's not the same it's a completely different phone.you need to go to the droid rzr section for help sorry but anything we say wouldn't be applicable.nothing is cross compatible.

Hello, this phone is in the Motorola Droid Razr section already. Says so on the top left. I couldn't find a forum for CDMA XT912 specifically so I suppose they are tied in with Droid Razr HD section. Yes, I know GSM & CDMA is different, all I'm trying to do is flash my phone (Motorola Droid Razr HD XT912) to an operable OS for CDMA. Tried the JB XT912 Utility & it had a bad software corruption glitch. Much help would be appreciated. Again this is a Droid Razr HD XT912 in the Motorola Droid Razr HD forum. Thanks

no it is not dude...
THIS is the droid razr forum.
We are at the razr HD, and there are more differences then the gsm.
hope i helped you a little bit...
Maybe you should just listen to people who are a little bite more experienced then you

exactly. there is nothing hd in the xt912's name, it's just the droid rzr. it's a completely different chipset (omap vs qualcom) thus nothing is compatible. Here is a link to the differences just in case.
FINAL
Find it amusing no one could give me a straight answer & yet they call me inexperienced. Just saying. I read up on it myself. It becomes a Droid HD when it's GSM, Droid Razr XT912 when Verizon, & Razr for Rogers. My phone has both SIM Card Slot & CDMA Technologies, yes I know you must install CDMA OS only, which is what I did. My phone is Verizon. I am guessing no one know's how to fix this so I must set out to fix it myself. Which I was going to do but I thought people on this forum's Q & A would be faster.
People that argue simply do not know the answer.
I can't tell if you're trolling or if you just don't know how to read.
As the others pointed out, it's a completely different phone. Go the correct forum and you may get an answer... if you drop the attitude.

Instead of being combative why not look into what we've been saying.your phone is not a rzr hd and can never be a rzr hd.I already told you the main difference ie chipsets.it has nothing to do with cdma vs gsm.the gsm version of the hd is the xt925 vs the cdma version the xt926. You own a xt912. There is a difference in model numbers there, it's not just our made up idea. I've already provided a link showing you all the hardware differences between your phone and ours and someone else has provided the xda link to the actual rzr forum. I don't think English is your first language so I'll give you a pass but please respect the judgement of others here and stop acting like a prick especially when asking for help.if you truly didn't understand then you could have worded your posts alot differently.xda is a family and we try to help everyone but your attitude has put a sour taste in my mouth.

First Thing:
We know what we are doing here, and i think we also know this Forum very well, so y not believe us.
Second Thing:
If you read it up to yourself, sou shouldn't have any trouble reading stuff up to yourself again, just dont stop learning and read again.
Third thing:
I never actually heard of a phone called
Droid HD

.
But after googling a little bit, it seems that the normal Motorola Razr(XT912) was called Motorola Droid HD in some articles. For example here. Maybe this is the reason for this confusion...
fourth thing:
r u trolling?
fifth thing:
Your glitch could also be a hardware problem, cause it seems to affect only the lower part of the screen... Maybe you should post a better description on the razr forum. Sounds like there may be a problem with the digitizer...
sixth thing:
Please format your text a little, its so hard to read.
seventh thing:
try flashing newest sbf for your provider via rsdlite. That could also help.
Well guys im about at my witts end with this. My troubleshooting steps have led nowhere and dont know what to do next.
I am trying to hook up my Razr Maxx HD to my Lapdock 500. From what ive read this should work no problem just without the webtop software interface. This is fine as i have already found a tablet ui module for xposed. anyways when i hook up my phone the mouse and keyboard work perfectly but all that comes up on the display is gray lines. i have tried 2 separate lapdock 500's with the same result. I have also hooked up an original razr with the same gray lines.
now heres the twist...my brothers bionic works perfectly fine with webtop 3.0. I have double checked the hdmi port in my razr with a full sized hdmi adapter to my tv and it worked perfectly. i have also tried forcing 720p through a module thinking that it was possibly an out of range issue but it produced the same gray lines.
a little about my phone...my phone is rooted through the motochopper root and was rooted for the first time on 4.1.2. it was not rooted before it was updated.
System Version: 9.18.79.XT926.Verizon.en.US
Android Version: 4.1.2
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-g101ca72
Build Number: 9.8.1Q-79
Im not sure what of this information is relevant but i am desperate to get this to work or at least find out what the problem is so i can plan what to do next. My plan was to take this thing on my cruise with me on monday as i dont want to take my laptop with me...plus lets face it lapdocks are cool. so does anybody have any clue as to what could be happening here?
I'd continually call Motorola until you reach someone who will help. On more than one occasion they promised me the 100 and 500 would go full screen and switch to a tablet ui even without webtop.
Maybe you should try removing the tablet mode. Motorola says it is built in to Android to resize automatically so maybe your framework is the culprit.
I think on slick deals I reading something similar to your issue. Spread the word and get the bounty going from my thread in the development section.
My atrix lapdock works just fine but it will not go full screen.

I have tried it both with and without framework...on and off tablet mode...directly after a factory reset...even tried forcing 720p output through the hdmi with no luck. and correct me if im wrong and im sure you've tried it but isnt the issue with it not going full screen a dpi issue?
I tried using a script to modify the dpi. All it did was shrink everything down on my phone display but still had black bars.

I have a Droid RAZR I checked the IMEI and it comes up that the phone is a Bionic. Why does it do that? I am trying to get this phone to work with any carrier too but I am having troubles on how to do that...If some could help me out with this I would appreciate it! I am now confused if I am suppose to follow the Bionic way of "unlocking" the device or Droid RAZR way....and don't understand the point in IMEI # if it doesnt match your kind of phone...second time I have had this happen?!?!
