Ok, I have a Motorola Razr HD LTE from Rogers Canada and currently has ICS 4.0.4 but I have been waiting for the jelly been 4.1.2 update released by Motorola since February 2013 and waited 7 months and still no up date so I contacted Motorola and they gave me some steps to follow but none worked so I came to the xdadevelopers forms to see if I can manually up date it. I got the firmware and RSD Lite 6.0 tool but need some help on how to go about and flash it as I have not done it this way before.
It is done
I have been fiddling with my phone all night and RSD Lite 6.0 and with no luck so this morning read the replies on this post where I got the Rogers Razr firmware for my phone here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032284 and needed to put my phone in fastboot mode then edit the .xml and remove the first line has the word "getvar" in it and you have to delete it plus the 2 lines after it, then save, update the zip file with the new .xml file, then I flashed it and It went with out any issues :good:

Hello guys,
I received my razr HD (925) today. It was already updated to 4.1.2.
Coming from my galaxy s2, where obtaining root is pretty easy I followed the first of your guides here - but failed at reading correctly:
I tried the "all in one tool" to get back to ICS to obtain root using the rootkeeper.
Something went wrong, the SW remained 4.1.2, but I had no radio signal any more (only verizon version I read lateron)
Now I managed to flash a france 4.1.1 s/w using RSD 6.1.4 - still having no root but can use it again, at least.
Is there any chance to get my (newer) original version back? At best rooted?

Maybe I should add, that it looks like my main problem is to find the up to date SW that was installed.....
Maybe I should send be back to my provider, get a new one and then do a dump / image and upload that BEFORE I "brick" it again =)
I would try to hard reset it and then try Matt's tool to go to back to 4.0.4 again.

The extide method is for VERIZON PHONE ONLY XT926
@extide
that was what I was doing - and what was not working.

To the other guys:
THanks, I'm going to unlock the bootloader then. Unfortunately it looks like some things have been changed in the factory delivered 4.1.2 so that not even safestrap is working any more.
With a locked bootloader the revert to ICS is not working.
Why you don t want unlock the bootloader ?

There are two reasons right now:
- I'm from germany and here we have seperate restrictions for warranty and guarantee (one is forced by law, the other is provided by motorola).
Motorola is not doing to repair unlocked Razr HDs
- My phone is new and I'm not sure whether I'm going to keep the Razr HD - unlocked it might be a problem to give it back to my dealer during the "test month" he offered.
(I still have my Galaxy S2 and had LOTZ of fun with new custom roms, trying different combinations, getting all the newest stuff ported right after it has been leaked anywhere for any modell - and on the other hand, there is not even the source to get my retail software back because no one shared it)

Try to use matt's tool to restore to 4.0.4 and then update to 4.1.2 again if you want to.
Edit: or try to reflash a 4.1.2 ROM with RSD Lite

You don't need to be rooted (but you can use the tool to root if you want to) and i don't think you need an unlocked bootloader, but I'm not 100% sure. Check it better on matt's tool's thread.

You CANNOT unlock the bootloader on Ultra, only on Developer Edition Maxx and X. Reflash stock firmware using RSD Lite, clearly something went wrong the first time around. That or try a factory reset. DON'T try to mess with the stock firmware you are flashing, it sounds like that is what you are trying to do, that will cause problems
i​Yachter99. I can't its says I canT downgrade when I try RDS lite to put stock firmware
well turns out it was an isis issue that they had to manually change something , and I got a new sim card its all working now im on 4.4
Hi everybody,
First of all, sorry for my bad english.
Well, I have a brazilian Xoom 2 MZ616 with ICS. Last month I rooted it and installed Titanium Backup to remove some bloatware. Unfortunatelly, I removed some APP that made it get stucked in the big red Motorola logo after first reboot.
Since it happened, I'm searching for the XML of ICS to flash via RSD, but I can't find the retail from Brazil. At the sbf.droid-developers.org the only one retail from Brazil to MZ616 is the HoneyComb 3.2.2.
I tried installing the 4.0.4 from Central Europe but it returned a error in the 2nd process, boot_signed. I also tried to update thru recovery using the OTA zip of ICS (Blur_Version.1.272.18.MZ616.AmericaMovil.en.BR.zip) but, due to the lack of some APPs (those I removed), it failed too.
So, this is my question: is there a way to downgrade to 3.2.2 to update after via OTA? Or, where can I find the XML of 4.0.4 retail Brazil to flash via RSD?
I hope you help me.
Many thanks!

I rooted my moto maxx(i live in india and its called moto turbo xt1225) last july, i just got the 6.0.1 ota update, while trying to install it, i first flashed stock 5.0.2 with rsd lite and then installed the update.
But afterwards when i installed the super su zip file v2.46(i didnt know at that time that you need v2.65+ for MM), my phone kept hanging up and wouldnt turn on.
So i restored a twrp backup from march but now everytime i reboot, the phone loads into the bootloader and so, offline charging is also not working. And rsd lite fails everytime at step 3(of 20).
Even installing a custom rom doesnt help.
Any help will really be appriciated plss.
Helpp
Someone plese help.
