Hello to all.

Finally got tired of all the bloatware and bad battery life on my maxx believe it or not. I did a hard reset to reinstall ICS and figured what a great time to try rooting the phone. So happy I did because now I feel like it is truly mine and not Verizon's. Thanks to all and I am excited to learn about and use some ROM's and later on unleash the power of this OS.

Thanks again just so very happy with how asy it all was thanks to the devs.

The best way and the only way is to use custom roms.. there is no point just rooting and disabling few services .. Have tried all of it.... Now with custom ROM I can feel the raw power of Razr

Welcome everyone! Glad to have you all with us! Sorry for the impersonal greeting, it's gotten busy lately and a lot of you popped in while I was otherwise occupied...

Hey gang, Just rooted my razr maxx, and while I love the phone, had enough of the bloatware so I rooted. Root went fine, got myself all setup with CWM and Titanium Backup, and when I tried installing the Full Throttle AOKP Jelly Bean ROM, it failed and now I can't do anything with my phone, so here I am.

Please tell me you have safestrapv.3.0.5 right? Did you backup? If so reload your backup download safeatrap 3.0.5 then your stock ROM is already backed up and its so easy to flash

I backed everything up, but I have no idea what to do in terms of actually accessing it. In Recovery mode I can see the folder that I created w/ the backup, just can't do anything with it.

[ITSBRYANN]

Hmm you should have used safe strap to flash...um honestly I'm not sure how you'd flash your recovery in clockwork...

I assumed clockwork was analagous, just need to figure out how to get everything to reset so I can start fresh at this point. Can't even access the clockwork recovery, I'm limited to the droid's (awful) recovery mode, and I'm not really keen on living with a worthless phone for too long.

[ITSBRYANN]

I can't move posts but I linked it to the help section. I only use SS I hate clockwork lol someone should be able to help you. You can't get anything to open as recovery?

Just tries booting into the failed JB ROM.

[ITSBRYANN]

Yeah that's the only ROM that's found... might have to use Matt's utility 187. Google that
Next time always flash with safe strap 3.0.5

Greetings All. I recently aquired a (new to me) Bionic, after spending a year on a Droid Incredible 2. Seems like the Bionic community is quite fractured, but this is the best place I've seen for Bionic owners so far. Who knew it would be on a Razr forum? Though I'm not complaining, haha. They're close enough relatives. :-)

After some research, I'm rooted, safestrapped, and...well, still gaining comfort before I take the next step of actually tossing a custom ROM on it.
