after RSD lite to a 4.4.2 official VZW release and everything has worked perfectly. The only thing wrong is that i cannot make any recovery app (CWM or TWRP) to load up in recovery. When i scroll to recovery on the bootloader screen. The (Warning, Bootloader Unlocked) screen shows up and will not continue on. If i let it sit it reboots and does a normal boot so the phone is not bricked. Any advice on how to fix this so i can flash CM 11. I am in fact using the Droid Razr M (xt907). also i RSD'd with my friends pc. I have a Mac and Android SDK developer tools installed. I used platform tools in terminal to flash CWM and TWRP.  For everything else, i downloaded the .apk files to my phone directly. I also have ROM manager from the play store downloaded which shows that CMW and TWRP are both flashed onto my phone.

Try using flashify to flash it on the phone. Seems like it's either a corrupt file or its not flashing properly.

You need a KitKat version of CWM from dhacker29. It's not available in the app.

Thank you so much! that worked and got everything back up and running

Now that i have recoveries working i am trying to flash CM_11 and Gapps to my phone and every time i flash (regardless of recovery.. CWM TWRP Safestrap.) every file comes up for a few lines and gives me a fail. i am downloading directly form CM's website and using the latest softwares that are designed for my 4.4.2 razor m. xt907. any suggestions as to what could be going wrong?

I believe the nightlies from the cyan site are older builds. They won't boot on the new kernel. You have to locate dhackers cm and that should work.

Make sure that you're on the right version of recoveries, I had the same thing until I updated it correct. If you flashed back to JB, use TWRP 2.7.0.0. If you're on the latest recovery, do an advanced wipe and wipe the caches and system partitions, and some Roms will still not flash unless you wipe internal storage as well.

i am on a mac and when i download the CM 11 unofficial from dhackers folder it unzips automatically. when i transfer it to my phone do i need to rezip it or just leave it as a open file?

[shane1]

I would think it needs to be zipped up but I don't know macs. Couldn't just download to phone? Or does the Mac have an option to not unzip?

There are a few fastboot binaries out there.  I'm not sure if the one included with the Android SDK will work for the RAZR M,

 

If you go to SamuriHL's House of Moto:

and download his SNAPDRAGON FXZ SUPPORT Package you will find the correct fastboot binary for Windows.

Shahzaib. By downloading flashify from the play store and flashing a recovery software from the app has fixed my problem.

CWM is not official, so it's not going to show up in the app. You'll need to sideload it and then flash, or learn how to fastboot and do it that way.

OK simple instructions for Windows:

 

Before you start make sure you have the latest Motorola USB drivers

 

1. Go to SamuriHL's House of Moto:

Please Login or Register to see this Hidden Content

2. Scroll Down until you find the link to download SNAPDRAGON FXZ SUPPORT

3. Extract the zip archive and you will have three folders "Darwin", "Linux" , and "Windows"

4. Get Dhacker29's CWM for kitkat. It is in his folder on androidhosting.org. Look under msm8960.  Look for xt926-KK-CWM-6048.img That one also works for the RAZR M.

5. Copy the recovery image into the "Windows" folder you just extracted.

6. Open a command prompt inside the Windows folder which should contain three files: AdbWinApi.dll, fastboot.exe, and xt926-KK-CWM-6048.img (you can Shift + Rigt Click the folder and select "Open Command WIndow Here" to make sure you are in the right place.)

7.  Boot your phone to fastboot. (Power off then power on holding down both of the volume key until you see the Boot Mode Selection Menu Use the volume down button to highlight AP Fastboot.then press the Volume Up key to select it.)

8. Connecto your phone via USB.

9.  In your command window type the following then press enter "fastboot.exe flash recovery xt926-KK-CWM-6048.img"  (Do not type the quotes).

10. Disconnect the phone then press the power button to turn the device off.

11.  Hold down the volume up button and power on the device to boot into recovery. 

12. When you reboot the phone the Recovery should give you an option to protect itself from being over written.  Make sure you select yes. If you don't, the stock kitkat Rom will reflash the stock recovery when you reboot. Also make sure that you reboot into recovery directly after flashing the recovery. If boot into the ROM immediately after flashing the recovery you will have to start over.

 

Hope that helps.
