Who can I pay to root my Droid RAZR HD

[Tim228]

Okay, I know this is frowned upon. Read and study the directions, think and do it for for yourself, yada-yada. I have rooted previous phones and hacked CM7 onto my NookColor, so not a total newbie. But the instructions for rooting the Droid RAZR HD (JB 4.1.1) are somewhat convoluted: reverting to ICS stock (will that work on a phone that came out of the box with JB?) rooting & un-rooting thru multiple updates, etc. Thing is I was gonna tackle it, but the most recent threads show ALOT of people unable to complete the process, or at minimum, stuck on ICS with JB update refusing to take. Summary: is there anyone/place I can take my phone to in the San Jose CA area that I would pay to do it? Maybe someone who's tackled this particular task already. Thanks for any referral.

Hello. I have the same phone and went through the same difficulties. I did have to revert to ICS (I think it was 4.0.4), root the device, then temporarily unroot (using Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper) and allow the OTA update to do its thing. After you revert to ICS, just use the DROID RAZR HD Utilityu 1.10 - worked fine for me. Hope this helps! Also, to get future updates, make sure if you get rid of system apps (I got rid of a lot of them), that you just freeze them. Don't actually uninstall them or when you need to update you will experience more issues.

hello, I am trying to root my RAZR HD and it is currently running 4.1.2. How do you revert back to ICS? Most threads are saying that it is not possible.

Use rsd lite with the ICS image for this phone.

I'm here trying to root my phone as well. From what I have read being 4.1.2 and 9.18.79.XT926 I heard it is impossible to now root my phone. Is this true?

You can root 4.1.2 with MotoChopper no need to flash back or deal with ICS. You'll just need a PC with the latest Moto drivers and the MotoChopper package. You'll also need one finger to make 1-click.

Make sure it's the right motochopper. Version 1.3 is ONLY for the 9.18.79 build of jb 4.1.2

Will that work with the latest build ? I have 9.18.94 I believe in the latest they changed the kernel as well.
