long story short.. rooted ICS wifi stopped working reflashed ICS forgot to reroot, and updated to Jellybean, now I've tried to use motochopper, Razr blade, linux in Virtual machine.. linux by using ubuntu.. to obtain root again.. all of which looked like they went without problem.. and said successful after but is that also just in batch file to say its done? none have given me root though, root checker by joey k? says i have no root access.. Razr Xt910, Rogers, canada, i also tried upgrading to 4.2 jellybean but that didn't work either, do i need root access to be able to do that for sure?

Thank you for the reply. =7.. but i believe that is what i found and tried doing in Virtual Machine, and also after installing Ubuntu 32 bit, which led me to registering on this forum.
