Here is a dropbox link, let me know when you get it so it doesn't get hammered.
Just saw this. We are all good now. Fully rooted and running jelly bean. Thanks for all the help!

Ran utility, back on ICS 4.0.4
I am stuck on # 21-
19. Tap Volume Down once and tap the Power Button once to highlight then select "apply update from external storage"
20. Scroll to the first firmware update (0.7.2) and tap the Power Button to select it
21. Scroll to "Yes" and tap the Power Button to select it- There is no "YES"
My options are:
Meta-Inf
modem
patch
recovery
system
Can anyone help me figure out the next step? TY

You unzipped the update. You should be picking the zip not the folder.
TY...I did figure that out after a few hours...be nice it the original post was edited to say that for people like me that are limited in expertise. Once I figured that out, I did get a little further but after installing both of the above from external sd card...I am stuck on v 0.7.2 Android version 4.0.4

Tried this a couple of nights ago after a bunch of reading and wish I'd found your guide that night as I spent a long time on it and used the ota updates and ended up not having root after final update. Just completed and I'm on full JB with root, so I'm stoked, thanks for the help.
a couple suggestions/observations.
At option 6 it's not just usb with debugging it's booted into fastboot mode Hold down both volume and power keys while booting and choose fastboot with down volume and execute with up volume, or at least that's what seemed to be required for me.
between 8 and 9 you have to re-enable usb debugging, maybe because I chose to do a full wipe during the downgrade to 4.0.4..
I did not have to do 21 or 33, scrolled to the update highlighted, hit power and they started no scrolling to yes and selecting
How about adding a thought re option 4 (safestrap) from the central tool, what it does and when/if one should add it to the process?
Thanks

And yes you need a full wipe to be sure everything
Is clean like when doing a new copy of windows
No old junk laying around

Razormax HD, Set to 4.04 via matts utlity.
System Version 0.6.25XT926
I select the zip file and get:
qe 1/1
--Install /sdcard....
Finding Update
Opening
Verifying
Installing Update...
Assert failed: file_getprop("/system/build.prop","ro.build.fingerprint") == motorola/xt926_verizon (etcetera)
Installation Aborted
When I try the other firmware update and I get an error about file signature. I thought one or both of the files might have gotten corrupted so I tried to DL them again.
(I also don't get a "yes" confirmation it just starts installing)
Did I miss a step?

Also, as it was just announced today, the next update for the Razr HD is about to start pushing, build 9.16.6. I'll update this post only after root is confirmed for this build. With it being a bunch of patches, root access might be broken. So, when it starts pushing, if you wanna test it, be my guest and let me know if it works. Otherwise, until root is verified on the build, this post will remain as is.

I was able to get past it by using the OTA update to get back to 7.2
Thanks for this post!

Until it can get fixed, I've changed the "
" link for the 0.7.2 download to the correct file on my Google Drive account.
To Download the complete file:
1. Open the link in a new page
2. At the top of the page, you will see the name of the file (Blur_Version.0.6.25.XT926.Verizon.en.US.zip), right below this, click on the word "File"
3. This brings up a menu, click on "Download"
4. Save the file, move to your phone,
5. Continue to follow the rest of the directions. The mirror for the other update (version 9.1.41) is correct.
Do you have the md hash for this or is it on the download page? Didn't see it. Thanks.

That's probably why Matt said don't use his utility if you've taken the 4.1.2 update.Hello. It would seem that if you try and start this process once you've already upgraded to 4.1.2 (JB) then it is impossible to downgrade even using Matt's tool to do 4.0.4. unless you've already rooted? It gets a couple failed things but completes anyways... I can't figure out how to do it -- every time it boots up, it just restarts into 4.1.2.
Thanks
