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 Maybe its version is too out of date.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

Rooted at 4.1.1 - Should I take the 4.1.2 update?

I just got this device as a new phone. it came with 4.1.1.
I followed the procedure to downgrade, root, and upgrad.
I am now at 4.1.1, rooted.
The 4.1.2 update has downloaded on my phone, and it is asking me if i want to install. Will i loose root? is Voodoo broken for this update? or will i be ok if i temp un-root, and then take the update?
I don't want to take the update if it will kill my hard-earned root. I know it is sometimes lost when taking this update. Should i do it or not? and what is the "right" way to do it to protect root?

be helpful to know your device, if u on xt 925 you can, if on xt 926 then chill

Not dev edition. Will stay put. Thanks for the input
What do we miss by not taking the update? anything of value?

Just unroot, install update and restore root. That's what I did and it was fine, until someone told me SBF'ing would give me better battery life, now I lost root. Wish I had just left it. I have XT926 non-dev edition. Use voodoo rootkeeper.

We got root now!

No worries, we now have root ability for the HD on 4.1.2 thanks to Dan R! Check for it as I am unable to post links at the moment.
I didn't see a link here on XDA yet so forgive the external link.
I had tried SBF back to 4.1.1 and 4.0.4 after a buggy 4.1.2 update, only to soft brick my phone. SBF of 4.1.2 got me functional again thank goodness. so I waited for a root app, got one yesterday.

even with root out for 4.1.2, it was safe to take the OTA on 926 consumer.
I took a chance and upgraded my maxx hd using the OTA (i used rootkeeper)... but it stayed rooted no problem after the update and didn't run into any issues or bugs that i could tell... Was also able to boot up another slot on still on 4.1.1... Nothing too significant in 4.1.2 over 4.1.1 though... but it's moot now since the root's been released

I have XT925 International Version of Razr HD and I rooted using motochopper. It worked. You can find info here in XDA.

Are you planning on running stock recovery? OUDHS rooted for me after I flashed it... wasn't going to bother with stock at all but when I went in to make a nandroid it detected no root & prompted to see if I'd like to root, after which I made a titanium backup as well before cracking into some ROM's - worked like a charm. I assume CWM/TWRP does something similar. Rogers/Fido XT925.

Hello! I bought XT925 just a few days ago. It had JB 4.1.2 out of the box. I tried to root it for a few times without a sucess using several different methods found on the internet. Then I was sucessful with ˝motochopper¨ ! This is, as far as I know, only method to root XT925 with JB 4.1.2. On other android versions everything will work but on JB 4.1.2 XT925 only motochopper works. Phone works great after the root. Don't worry about using this on your device... Google out ˝motochopper.zip¨ Good luck

Hi,i just get my droid razr maxx HD two days ago,and i can use my local operator,'m live at indonesia ,have you try to set the the network to GSM/UMTS ?

XT926 WILL NOT WORK ON A GSM NETWORK. It is built with a CDMA radio, that's hardware. You need an xt925, which is built with the GSM radio in order to use a GSM network. There is no software changes that you could make to change a CDMA phone into a GSM one. Sorry.

No. Its a global phone. It in fact has the GSM radios built into it. And others have had success with using it on GSM networks.
For example this thread shows how to make it work with us GSM carriers:

Yeah your incorrect on that one lol.

This question comes up A LOT. You could do a search in either the RAZR HD forums or the RAZR M forums to find the answer. The phone is a global phone, it has a SIM card and it works on GSM networks outside the US. There's a lot of misinformation floating around with people, like hte poster above, screaming about it being CDMA and not working globally... this is simply not true. I have been to Australia with this thing, it works fine.
The problem that others have found is that because India uses CDMA there's some logic burned into the phone that locks it to Verizon and their partner carrier whilst in India. Unfortunately, there is no known workaround that I have found. Some people have tried things with RadioComm, including the GSM unlock which allows the HD to be used on US GSM carriers (ATT/TMo). I haven't seen anything to indicate that this fix also fixes the phone so it can be used in Inida.
Sorry for the bad news...

Hi. I've successfully being using the razr maxx HD in India . Earlier me to face similar problem as you for not be able to use this phone. However with the OTA ver .16 update, the phone automatically started to work on the Indian sims and since then its no looking back.
Why don't you flash the latest current stock rom update which I think is v.18 .
I believe you should have no problems
