How to Root: Bionic, Razr, Razr Maxx, Droid 4

All of this just became that much safer and easier from the restoration standpoint because daywalker04 just released the 5.9.902 full xml.zip so we have a complete set of stock signed images of the current relase to work with.

Yay!

I just flashed to Eclipse 2.1 did all of the preiminaries and about 1/2 hour later the phone was up and running.

I tried out the Axiom ICS ROM. I had problems with the radio so I reverted back after a day.

Which is the correct ClockworkMod to be used on the Razr Maxx?
I don't see it listed here:
http://www.clockworkmod.com/rommanager

I would need to install it so I can try this Beats Audio for rooted phones:

I was able to install Razr Bootstrap from here:

Just be sure you follow the directions, as it requires two files, and then going into Super User and select Deny for Razr Bootstrap.

Afterwards, I was able to install the zip file for the Beats audio.
It does improve the sound with good quality headphones, but you still have access to your music apps equalizer settings as there's no adjustments for the Beats part.

Been a few bad days. Last Thursday my Bionic stopped working. The technician claimed the phone was fried. I got a replacement on Saturday. Today I tried the latest rooting exploit and it work with no problems. Just installed safestrap. I will be more cautious in flashing ICS ROMs.

Do you have access to a Mac or Linux machine? I bought the star trek communicator app so I can avoid the standard dialer if I choose too.

So with the Star Trek, you never get the blue dialer? Is that all it takes?

Just wondering if anyone has installed the .905 Bionic update and been able to keep root, or re-root after the update?

[ronaldheld]

I lost root but used motofail and got it back.

OK. I saved the root with OTA Root Keeper, and then restored it after the 905 upgrade.
