Major props to all the helpful people in this thread, and the genius behind these roots. Having some issues applying this to my razr maxx which just got JB OTA yesterday.

Latest Motorola drivers installed - check
Smart actions - the only options in manage apps I have are disable and force stop. If I browse the app in the play store it only allows to open. I removed the automatic updating box. I really don't see where you guys see the uninstall updates which is on most apps. I cleared the cache and am just hoping this works.
Connected via MTP - check

When I run the .bat, it starts daemon and then hangs. last line is *daemon started successfully *. Cursor hangs on the next line forever. Ive tested on 2 machines (win 7 x64) with admin priv on both. adb is running in the background from what I can see in taskmgr. Not sure what to try next. I really *dont* want to factory reset because I'm pretty sure this error is minor in nature and I'm simply overlooking something.

edit: smart actions version is currently 4.2.2.4.2

edit2: tested on my THIRD PC and it magically worked. No idea what was holding it back, I changed nothing on the phone between tests.

wifi tether is also working, huzzah!

[jlr98ranger]

I got my phone rooted first time I am so happy to be able to tether again Dan is the Man !!!!!

Do you have more then one device plugged in to your PC? Do you have blustacks app installed? Any gaming emulator apps installed? If so remove them...if not try a factory data reset and reboot PC just to be safe.

I will try this on antoher PC when I get home. The PC I am using has alot of stuff running, VMware, gaming PC etc. I have a base computer with just windows 7 installed that I can use. I will let you know what happens after I retry.

Got it working. Just had to edit the file from 40 to 80. Thanks to everyone.

For those using the OSX / Mac script, I updated the razr_blade.sh file in order to get it to install. Like others in the group, I was getting the error that others have posted where the script would fail. Rather than perform a FDR i used it as a clue that perhaps the phone hadn't completely settled down yet when the script was trying to continue. So, my change was to change the Sleep command in the script from Sleep 40 to Sleep 80. After making this change, the script ran perfectly.

Hope this helps anyone with the problem on a Mac, although I suspect the same situation could apply for a PC.

Thank you for providing this heads up....should be very helpful.

I am in the process of rooting my Maxx and it says "daemon started successfully" and has been on this for about 45 minutes. Is it supposed to do this for this long?

Make sure you are extracting the files to the desktop first. Then run the file. If it still stalls, make sure you have the drivers installed and mpt is selected.

i downloaded them from moto's site you will be happy once you get it rooted make sure you read and follow each step of the root process exactly as the program says

[oxymoron]

Did you do the sqlite hack? If not, you have to do it again.

This made the difference from my linux machine as well. If you see three errors in Phase three referring to /data/logger, try this before doing the FDR.

Thanks to all on the forums for the help.

Ok, so I am a complete Newbie to rooting my phone with a MAC. The instructions for a MAC user aren't working for me. Can they be dumbed down just a little more? Thanks so much, much appreciated! I have a Droid Razr running JB 4.1.2

Linux/Mac-
-Extract .zip
-Open terminal and cd into the folder
-Run:

[jcescobar]

I need help!!!!!!!!! when I try to run the adb utility it just jumps on the screen and then goes away, what do I need to do?

[ampennes]

so i just tried rooting my razr maxx which updated to jelly bean yesterday but the code reached a point where it displays
* daemon not running. starting it now *
* daemon started successfully *
and now it just paused and hasn't done anything else... how can i stop it and try it again? or what else should i do?

[mikeyd]

Thanks Dan. Donation sent. Keep up the good work.
