I am a Droid Razr MAXX user. I followed the excellent instructions posted here by spc_hicks09 in order to upgrade to Jelly Bean 4.1.2. I was on the 4.0.4 last stock release back from June.
Before flashing I rooted using Matt's utility and also kept a backup of root using Voodoo Rootkeeper. The upgrade was definitely a success except for the fact that root access wasn't quite working, but nothing that Matt's root fixer wasn't able to handle. So I had root and 4.1.2 and life was pretty sweet for a day
Until I realized the android.media.process was sucking up 51% of the battery somehow. Upon reading somewhere that it had to do with a corruption on the ext SD card and such, I tried formatting the SD card but that didn't quite work. So I decided to do a "factory reset" assuming that it will only delete data and 1) the phone's system software will remain intact 2) I will still retain root.
Now after the factory reset, it seems like I no longer have root, but I may try Matt's root fixer again to see if it can do its magic. But, right now my biggest problem is that I can't seem to connect to any WiFi hotspots
. It just keeps looping between "authenticating" and "obtaining IP" address. I even tried connecting to some other open and known WiFi hotspots and it still won't connect.I tried resetting my home router and fiddling with security settings, but nothing seems to work. I was on WPA-PSK [TKIP] + WPA2-PSK [AES] before and that worked fine after the flash to 4.1.2, but no longer works after factory reset. Also, I tried changing security to just WPA2-PSK and that didn't help at all.
It seems like some other Droid Razr users here are having similar issues.
Any tips? advice or words of wisdom? Hopefully there is a solution out there for my woes! Please help, much appreciated!
Thanks!
