Hey all. I just got a Razr HD Maxx, and am looking to root it. Version 9.30.1, with an locked bootloader. I'm pretty new to this. Anyway to do so? Thanks.
No. The bootloader cannot be unlocked on firmware updates after 9.16.6. Firmware 9.30.1 cannot be rooted.

Unfortunately not: the new firmware won't allow us to downgrade.

I would like to start by saying sorry for NOOB question but i have to ask because i dont want to brick my device. I have a Verizon Motorola Droid Rarz HD, and i was wondering is this a XT925 or and XT926. I have tried going into Setting>About Phone looking there but it only says "Droid Razr HD" Thanks in advance to all responses.

if im not mistaken the xt925 is the droid razr hd and the xt926 is the droid razr maxx hd. and from what i understand their roms are interchangeable because the only difference is the storage capacity and battery size.

Totally incorrect.
XT925 = GSM International/Canadian Motorola RAZR HD (no MAXX Version)
XT926 = Verizon Motorola "DROID" RAZR HD & RAZR HD MAXX
OP - you've got an XT926.

correct, also should be noted that the xt926 is considered the "developer edition" and ships without a locked bootloader
To be completely sure, it's written on the back of the phone in really tiny letters and numbers at the bottom. The 926 is the verizon (cdma) version. It does not mean it's a developers edition.

Xt926 doesn't mean its a dev edition

I've read quite a bit about the bootloader processes, and it looks like once the bootloader on the XT926 Razr HD is unlocked it can never go back to stock locked bootloader. Is this true, if not is there a method of locking a bootloader on the XT926 Razr HD?
Once it's unlocked it's unlocked.

Over at the Photon 4G Forum somebody said it would be possible. But it seems unconfirmed and i don't dare to try it myself atm

The unlock method results in a hardware change that can't be undone. Look on the devs homepage for the full technical explanation.

Basically blows a (fuse) in latent terms.
Razr HD
Eclipse V 1.3
Interesting... i never thought of it that way... but sure you can make blow a fuse on the board by software, if the circuit is designed appropiately. One more bit i've learnt. Thanks for the info! :good:
I was told also that if Verizon saw that you have unlocked your bootloader that they will kick you off of their network. I was told there is a no root/unlock clause in a Verizon contract. Can anyone confirm or deny this.
Hello Professor, maybe this question is out of date or frequently asked questions. do the update ota 4.1.2 can downgrade to 4.0.4 to Unlock BootLoader?? I feel free with the Droid Razr maxx HD Locked. Please explanation. Thanks :crying:

If you're on the latest firmware you can't unlock and, no, you cannot downgrade either.

I am on latest system version 183.46.15.XT926, with locked bootloader. I have rooted my phone using Hydrogen Peroxide method. Can i install Safestrap? I heard its recovery for locked bootloader. Will it be safe installing Safestrap and installing custom rom? I want to install Safestrap v3.75 and CyanogenMod 12. Anyone tried this ? http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Install_CM_for_spyder

What you have posted is not for this phone model. Do not attempt to use it or you will brick it.
So, the latest .15 firmware can now be rooted? But the bootloader unlock exploit is still patched and it cannot be unlocked? In that case, I'd suggest using Xposed to mod the stock firmware to suit you better. Not much more to it.
Okay. So i cant install safestrap?

I have a Droid Maxx (which I think is basically an Ultra) running Android 4.4.4. It is not an unlocked version. Can I downgrade to an older firmware?
No we can't downgrade or unlock bootloader till now.
