I found guides on how to root my phone, which btw I have the Razr Maxx not the Razr Maxx HD. But after you root it how do I install a different operating system besides android, also whats the best one out right now. Im not a fan of google or the android OS. Any help would be appreciated.

I have done research I found guides on how to root, but which rom is the best out now? from what I have seen my phone is limited to GB or ICS?
and is there a guide on how to flash the rom after the root? I am a huge noob, never done this before, just want the android os off my phone.
Why don't you post in the razr MAXX section man.. That would only make sense. And running a different rom dosent change the os. Its still android. You can't just make it be an iPhone or a windows phone.

Im getting my maxx hd in two days and noticed some ways to root on ics. If i get my maxx and its preloaded with jb can i still use matts utility to fastboot back to ics and get root then use rootkeeper?
Thanks!

It will probably come pre-loaded with ICS but if for some reason it comes with JB then yes you can restore back to ICS and root. Enjoy

I just got my good old RAZR Maxx HD after a repair and they already upgraded it to jb 4.1.1 (when I shipped, he had ICS). Is it possible to go back to ICS now? Anyone has done it? Thanks in advance.

Yes sir it is! Just Google matts utility and download that. Make sure to backup all your data before you restore your phone back to ICS. Enjoy!

Thanks man... but other people say it's impossible to downgrade to ICS once u had stock jb. How can I do it without bricking my spanking new Droid?

Other people don't know what they are talking about haha. I have been restored back to ICS multiple times. Use Matt's utility and I am sure you will not have any problems whatsoever.

My friend was able to get a rooted 4.1.2 rom on his xt926, but somehow, root access is now gone from the phone after installing some apps. The phone is currently on 9.16.6, is there any utility that is able to root this yet? I tried the Droid Razr hd utility 1.10, but it says it won't work with 9.16.6.
No root for it yet.

Is there a way to revert to ICS?
I'm in the same boat as you no root it sucks too. I guess we will have to wait for a root method when it releases

There are so many threads on the matter (most that lead to nowhere) that no one knows which you are referencing. If you know something, enlighten us.
OK, just traded my S3 for this bad boy and even though I can't unlock the boot loader its still awesome and I love it. I do have it rooted on the latest firmware but like I said, no unlock sadly. How much fun can I actually have with it just rooted but not unlocked?

You can now rest easy knowing that when you turn on your phone you wont be frightened by TouchPiss and the gawd awful button layout.
Now the fun really beings. Make your own mods. No more flashing broken roms and waiting for the dev to fix them. You start with the stable stock rom and mod it. Although my bl is unlocked this is what im doing.
Can I flash things without an unlocked bootloader?? I mainly want a kernel which might not happen. :/

Im pretty sure you are sol. Sorry.
Can't flash a different kernel but as mentioned you can do basic mods or even use safestrap and use some of the old roms.

What kind of build prop mods can I do to help with speed?

I don't know about build prop tweaks but have you ditched the stock launcher yet? Nova and Apex are both smoother and faster than the stock one.

Which parts are not compatible? How about we use safestrap, create a back up of 4.0.4, restore the image to slot 2, and use the system image from custom rom for droid razr to flash the system in slot 2? Can this be done?
Hey boy's ... news?
Still nothing for our tablet...
Has anyone got anywhere adapting an XT910 ROM for Xoom 2?
Hey guys!
I just got my Droid Razr HD. Im thinking of rooting it after the release of CM 12. Right now my phone is updated to 4.4.2 kitkat so do I have to downgrade or anything before rooting the phone?
Thanks!
Is your phone's bootloader unlocked? Do you have a xt925 or xt926?
xt926. Im not sure about bootloader though. (Im not using the Verizon SIM)

Tried that, didn't work... Towel root too didn't work... The only thing I haven't tried is flashing the firmware. I will try that and give a feedback.
