This root exploit was sent to me from xlightwaverx

Using this rooting tool you can root 6.14.84/85. I did and it worked anyway.

10+ person says it works so far. (84/85)

1 person softbricked (75)


Anyone up for testing? If you already are rooted, try temp unroot. Also if anyone is on the ICS leak 6.14.7X I'd be interested to know if this works too.

Run the Root.bat and follow the instructions. There are a few reboots and laggy phone in between steps, at least for me there was.

Install the drivers included if you haven't already. There are ICS compatible ADB drivers.

I was thinking that would work if someone fixed all the spelling errors in the BAT. Glad it worked for one of you.

I can also confirm. I was soft bricked on 84, able to get 84 working again and I ran this.

Issue I had is on second reboot, screen never came back on for me. I would hit the power button and the keys would lit up but the screen would not come on. Hit any key to continue and and choose the option that I had root, rebooted and root is there. Confirmed working with titanium backup, wifi tether, and sqlite.


Also after first reboot indicated battery was 5 percent. I was at 60 percent when I started. Still reading 5 percent? Known issue? Anyway to correct?


I cannot however download root exploorer from market, says update only tried that and failed, Uninstalled system rootexploorer apk and now says uncompatible version in market. Any ideas?

Thanks Matt!

Edit: Disregard, I rebooted and root exploorer from market working fine.

I had the same exact experience as you to the t. I lost root going to. 84 and have been waiting to get root back. This makes being stuck on. 84 that much better.

Oh yeah my first post. Coming from a d2 and loving my razr

My suggestion is to run utility 1.6 to fastboot to 6.12.181 files, go to Moto recovery, then upgrade to 85. You can root on there since its a fresh .85.

EDIT: link to 1.6:
