I have a razr hd maxx i am trying to flash to page plus. but I can do it because it has been updated to kitkat 4.4.2.
Plz point me in the right direction on how to downgrade. tried house of moto but the directions wasnt straight forward plus the instructions was from 2013, i think kitkat is newer than that, so I really dont want to brick this thing. please help
should i stock rsd it? xt907 didnt work that method, but was afraid to do it on the HD Maxx without the ok.
You will need to unlock the bootloader to downgrade if you haven't already. I posted a guide in the general forum that will help you do everything needed to get back to jb.

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

After endless searching, many threads, you tube vids etc...I have come to realize that I need help before I root my device. I tried Towelroot (which I donated) to no avail with this version. I was just about to attempt going back to 4.1, however I realize that my brain has taken in far to much info and a mistake is likely. I do not have phone service due to it being locked to Verizon, trying to transfer my Net10 service but have to unlock first. So sorry for any aggrevation in advance but ANY help would be wonderful...Thanks, Melinda G.
Hello. A quick search came up with the threads below. Best of luck .

[How-To][Tutorial] Downgrade Kit Kat 4.4.2 to JB 4.1.2
I have a Droid Razr XT912 and i was trying to flash cyanogenmod, but i think i accidentally reset the stock rom before that.
When ever i try to shut it down it just turns back on and shows a blank screen.
I'm trying to find the stock firmware so that i can flash it back to stock with RSDlite.
Could someone give me a link the stock firmware for the Droid Razr XT912?

Thanks for the link!
I didn't see the Jelly Bean firmware files, but i'll try flashing the ICS firmware and see what happens.
I would ask about it there.
OK, I'll ask.
Thanks, Darth

Droid Razr firmware
I tried flashing all of the XT912 firmware that i could find, but it still wouldn't flash anything.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
If that thread doesn't help you, you will need to ask for help here in your device section,

Hello! I have been running CM12 (lollipop 5.0.1) on my XT926 for months now, only updated it once from the original version posted. I decided to update it again because a few things have become wonky; however, it seems the thread no longer exists. AM I GOING CRAZY?!?! Did it ever exist? Did it have to get taken down? Can someone please fill me in? I have absolutely been ENTHRALLED with this ROM and do not want to put something else on here if an updated version of CM12 is floating around here somewhere. I saw Validus is on here, which will serve as my next ROM if this has ceased to exist. Any info is much appreciated!
Thanks!

You probably flashed DHackers version. It was originally linked via his twitter account. Just google dhacker cm12. You'll find the updated ROM
Right on, thanks!

There is no way to downgrade if you're locked. Please search next time, this has been asked and answered a lot.

Let me first say hello I am new to this forum. I am new to rooting/flashing when it comes to androids. I have a Verizon Motorola Droid Razr HD XT926 which I am trying to fix for a friend. It is stuck on the red eye and will not boot. I understand I will need to re-flash the software, and I understand the steps I need to take to re-flash using RSD lite. My problem is I cannot find a download for the stock rom, nor am I 100% sure which one I need. My friend has no interest in rooting, so I just need it back to stock. I do not know what software version is currently on the phone. Is there a way to find out with the phone not booting? Or does this even matter? Can I just flash the latest official version? And that is my main problem, which version to use, and where to find the download for it. I have searched around for some time and cannot find a definite answer on this. Thanks alot, any help with this would be amazing!
Your best bet is to just flash the latest one. You can get it from here: http://www.drdevs.com/devs/FXZ-files/XT926 (Droid RAZR HD)/ . The last one on the list is the latest.
