I have an Indian Atrix 2 running the official OTA ICS 4.0.4
I haven't rooted the phone before it updated and was trying to do it now using the files and instructions from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1742879
I've done all the basics:
-Checked that USB Debugging was on
-Checked that Unknown Application Sources were allowed
-Made sure I had the latest drivers
However the root batch file only says that the "daemon started successfully" but nothing happens after...
I've attached a couple of screenshots
Also I noticed that after connecting my phone to the computer and running the command 'adb devices' my phone doesn't show up in the devices list, this probably has something to do with it, but I don't know what or how to rectify it.
Try different cable or computer usb port.
I've yet to successfully root mine as will but i would also suggest running as administrator

tried both suggestions, unfortunately to no avail.
How about reinstalling adb??
If nothing works i would suggest doing a factory reset and trying again.

seems driver issue, the phone is not recognized..
I rooted it using the attached RazrRoot file. I saw it somewhere on XDA but I am unable to find that thread. So I am uploading it again.
All the credits goes to original developer. I am just uploading it again.
For me, there was no problem in rooting the device. I rooted it as soon as I updated to ICS. So good luck to you all.

Still error

I tried everything even reset my phone. Now i am getting the attached error. PLease help guys..
check your connection mode
When you connect the phone using the USB cable, what mode is activated? Try selecting mass storage mode and then run the root script. (Other modes like MTP etc won't work I think)
Also try reinstalling the drivers before trying this out.
Doesnt work

I've tried all the suggestions, out of which none seem to have worked. I think it is a driver issue, however I uninstalled the driver from the Windows Device manager and re installed the latest moto drivers, which hasn't solved the problem. So now I'm out of ideas

How long did u wait after running the root file ?
It does take time to move ahead from daemon started successfully.. and ur phone will reboot twice after the darmon starts.

If u see the screen shot i have attached in a reply above u will see that it goes till the end without rooting the phone
download the razr root file and try again, maybe some problem with the download. im sorry cant help you with anything else.. maybe a hard reset should do it.
try following this again,
download the moto driver
Moto Drivers
download the razr root from here again, this is the one i used
Razr root 4.0.4
Connect phone in MTP mode
USB debugging enabled
Right click on the root.bat file and Run as administrator..
This is how ive rooted, twice, and also one of my friend.. the difference is that im on the latest leak, 672.1.18.en.03 ( but thisis also the OTA for AsiaRetail MB865) So this Should probably work.. If not maybe research some more and if nothing helps maybe a hard reset is your last option..
See if this helps
Firstly I don't know since you already attempted a root method which didn't work out yet how & up to what extent it alters your phone though not rooted. If your phone is working I feel the first step now would be for you to do a factory reset assuming you are on ICS OTA (OTA remember & nothing else) & I am repeating one of my post for what's it worth to you cause it was successful for me, so here it is :
Here's what I did :
1) Installed the latest USB drivers (in my case Motocast) from Moto site.
2) As a double check executed the Motorola Device Manager program (basically the USB drivers) again from the Moto site (which gives option of repair or uninstall & I selected repair since I initiated the install process) atop the prior installation of the Motocast.
3) Cold boot the computer (shutdown & then restart & not just restart {being paranoid })
4) On phone ensure screen timeout to never, screen always on while charging, usb debug on, allow non market apps install check then plug in to back port and when the Moto USB transfer GUI pops up, right click the icon @ system tray & check do nothing when phone is plugged in. Unplug phone
5) Once again cold restart phone & computer
6) After phone restarts killed all google processes manually, disabled anti virus, vpn's & other non critical apps
6) Once rebooted both devices, selected MTP mode, plug in phone & click on Jim's root file
7) Root - Cut thru like hot knife thru butter
One most important point was since I was absolutely bone stock I did not do factory reset before plugging in phone and in case if any kind of tinkering has been done ensure factory reset to make sure you go absolutely bone stock & then follow above steps. Hope this helps.
Post your final update. Good Luck!
So I recently did a factory restore on my S3 for verizon after trying to get the ota update, and for some reason when i connect my device to my laptop it will disconnect randomly.
Now it booted to a screen that says firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please use software repair assistant & try again.
The problem is I tried that and it always gets to like 98% and then it says the phone is disconnected. I can't restart the phone as it always goes back to this screen...
I had flashed a stock recovery and did a factory reset, so I'm not sure why this is happening.
I tried to do an emergency firmware restore in kies, but kies won't even recognize my device.

Is it possible you have issue with your cable.cable pin? or you can try a different usb port. Did you try the ODIN method?

I have 3 USB ports. 2 are 3.0, 1 is 2.0. If I even try to put it in the 2.0 it won't recognize. It's not the cable pin because I use it for charging and it works perfectly fine.
I've tried doing emergency firmware recovery in Kies but it never completes because it says there was an error. Maybe it's because it won't let me in recovery mode?
Also what is the ODIN method?

Download Odin here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722686 and use Odin to flash full factory firmware.
since you wanted to get onto 4.3 anyway this will help you. I added how to enter download mode just for you.

Yeah, same situation on ATT Variant.
I think I'm hard bricked at this point, can't connect to it from pc, cant boot, cant correct with factory reset from boot.
Had to get it exchanged...ugh what a pita that was....makes me cautious of rooting again, never bricked one and I've been doing it since the htc hero lol
What were you doing when it hard bricked?

just an update, after trying to go back to stock via odin, of course it messed up during due to these problems. I finally got it to restore with odin, but i had to go to someone's house to use a different computer(old win xp,upgraded to 7 computer). Anyway i got it restored, thank God, but i was still having trouble with it connecting...switched from my poem cable to an off brand i bought at best buy and been working fine.
Was trying to factory reset because I was getting a usb device not recognized, reset failed on reboot.
Tried diff pc/cable like other user, had no such luck with several different pc's etc.
What about it Odin mode?

Does it recognize it in download mode 'Odin mode'? If yes flash a stock ROM
anyone fix this problem? I just got my galaxy s6 edge (ATT) and rooted it with ping pong.... now cant connect to PC
Hi guys, I have a situation, I have a tmo S6 (SM-G920T), few months ago i started having problems with my usb port, I could charge my phone but my pc wouldn't recognize my phone to transfer data, i had a message "USB device not recognized". as i said I could charge. My problem got worse because last week i received tmo's upgrade to MM (I was in LL). I took the bad decision to take the upgrade, because once the installation was done, my phone tried to reboot and it got stuck on the "Galaxy S6" logo. I have already wiped factory reset and cache, but it's still stuck.
I cannot re-install with Odin because pc does not recognize my phone. Before upgrade I was on Lollipo OJ7 stock and rooted, but now when I go to recovery, I get PD1 recovery menu, I guess PD1 got installed but don't know why it got stuck.
Please, is there a way to rescue my phone??
Thank you

Have you tried a different USB cable, preferably a new, good quality one? Have you tried a different PC? Have you fully uninstalled the Samsung drivers, and reinstalled them (lots of threads on XDA on how)?
Have patience, frustration leads to bad decisions. ?

Hey, thanks for answering, Yes i have tried in multiple computers and with different cables (2 original from Samsung, Lg, Motorola, Nokia and 2 or 3 generic), the same with different versions of drivers, also tried installing drivers from Kies and Smart Switch, but at the end same result "Usb device not recognized", I guess my usb port is damaged.
I have a massive problem, after days of research i have found NOTHING..
Ok so i had a rooted samsung galaxy s6, i was getting a bit tired of having it rooted (didnt really serve any purpose) so i decided to unroot via the superSU app then i restarted my phone and it hasn't been able to turn back on ever since.. it'll show the logo over and over again when i try to turn it on. I tried wiping the cache partition, wiping the data, rebooting it every single way possible, no luck..
So i decided i had to flash the Rom using the latest version of Odin but the problem with that is that now my phone isn't getting recognized by my computer i have tried installing the proper drivers, changing usb cables, ports, computers.. I even tried installing samsung smart switch and kies but nothing works.
If anyone knows how to solve this problem please help.

Have you tried to get into download mode and run the emergency recovery feature via smartswitch?
I had the same issue with an old S6. The emergency recovery feature asks you the model and serial number of your device and immediately recovers it when you have a bad software restore.

If you can get to recovery mode, you should be able to get to download mode. Serial #s are easy to find with a simple google search. It will depend on what version of S6 you might have.
