I actually tried that already and it didn't work. I'm going to try loading the fastboot recovery and do it that way.

[Digital Cha0s]

yea thats the best way anyways

[radioboy]

I just wish it had been as easy as claimed with that file floating around.

Yep, turns out this is a major bug when coming back from the cheesecake leak. Your data will upgrade fine, but will not downgrade to .748. This should definitely be in the OP.

how do i do this without RSD? For what ever reason RSD 5.6 and me arent jiving. I was able to revert to .744 via command prompt. The files to do a command prompt flash or an rsd flash are different......right?

Add another one that flashed back to .748 and now can't send sms/mms. I was hoping to find the miracle quick cure here but it looks like the long way home. One of the risks of flashing a leaked update I guess. Fastboot here I come.

[showard594]

why would you roll back. this is a good update and fixed every problem outstanding; maps, sky map, hotspot, data drop out...

i must have missed something about why to roll back from a perfectly good update that you will be able to update via FOTA when the final one comes out.

So I RSD'd back to .744 with no problems and immediately received and installed the OTA to .748. All was good until I tried to send a text without success (still can receive). Anyone think a factory reset after the RSD to .744 and before .748 update might help?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I rolled back Fastboot-style to .744 and did a factory reset BEFORE doing the OTA for .748 and I'm able to send and receive texts normally.

both times I have fastbooted I have had to do a full wipe in the moto recovery where you flashed the 173 update. Before wiping I had lots of wierd quirks going back.

Thanks to both for the reply's. RSD'd back to .744 again, booted back into recovery and wiped data/ factory reset, initial setup, rooted, restored missing apps/data with TB, installed OTA to .748 and am now restored back to my original setup with working sms/mms and ready for the next OTA. I still don't understand why doing the RSD wouldn't cure the sms problem but it was probably more to do with me being a little lazy and not wanting to set up again after a wipe.
Anyone rolling back from the leaked update in preparation for the official one and encounters the same issue, save yourself time and aggravation and do the wipe in recovery (as suggested by mattlgroff in his thread "Using RSD Lite and Fastboot files to go back to stock"), before continuing on.

Will this leak/update work on the Maxx?

Chances are, yes. Everything between the Razr and the Razr Maxx are the same.

What about if you were not rooted and did the OTA update from 748 to 173 and then did the roll back to 748 and now are having the problems of sending and receiving texts? Any suggestions? Before you ask why I would roll back to 748 when there was such a great improvement with the OTA leaked update, I was sent an email which instructed me that I needed a stock phone. That's all I can say.

It works the same on the Maxx, in case anyone else is wondering.
