WARNING: You REALLY need to UNDERSTAND and read EVERYTHING or you MAY brick your phone!
IF YOU HAVE NOT UNLOCKED, THIS BUILD WILL PERMANENTLY PREVENT YOU FROM DOING SO. STOP NOW and GO UNLOCK!
Purpose of this thread:
To get you, the locked or unlocked RAZR M xt907 owner, from any version to 4.4.2 (KDA20.62-15.1).
Things you will need:
FXZ KDA20.62-15.1 thanks @stras1234 as always!
Instructions:
Use the RSD Flasher with KEEP DATA to flash this on your phone with RSD.
OR
Use the House of Moto with KEEP DATA to flash this to your phone with fastboot.
OR
Use RSD Lite to flash it, but, you will lose data unless you modify the XML file manually.
This will get you a clean OTA install. You will lose root.
Thanks! I was hoping this would leak soon.

No. I dont think its worth it. My phone actually feels laggy now, it shudders during transitions and scrolling. Very annoying. YMMV.

Quick, unlock the bootloader first because it's now or never!!!
As for updating, FXZ packages are suitable for all phones regardless of lock status, though you will lose your app data AND internal storage content in the process - please make backups.

You won't lose data if you use my tools to flash it. Nor does the current version of the FXZ have the erase data line. When the official one gets posted to sbf it may have the erase data line in it, but that will literally be the only difference.

Awesome thank you!! Now my next question is...her phone already downloaded the update but she hasn't implemented it yet. Can it be removed and prevented from updating PERIOD? She doesn't want to update it becuz She'll lose her root and she doesn't want to unlock her bootloader becuz she is still under warranty.

Hi Andy & Sam,
my bootloader just unlocked with motopocalypse,
and flash it using rsdlite with fxz new build (183.64.15),
this rom kinda speedy than before so far..
but i let you know later..
fyi, it is safe flashing this rom, my userdata still remain..
edit: i've lost root after update, and towel root is'nt working.. is there any other rooting tools?..
thx guys.. ?
Unlocked users do not use root exploits. They install custom recovery, flash supersu zip, and call it a day.

Grab a KK-BL-compatible custom recovery from dhacker29's site and flash that. Then grab SuperSU flashable zip from chainfire.eu. You might wanna refer to the guide in General section for details. Follow part 3 for custom recovery and then part 1b for root.

Here is the completely stock ROM image for the GSM Galaxy Nexus, version ITL41F. It is not rooted, if you wish to root after installing use my Superboot. System and boot images are included, recovery and baseband are not. The baseband version for ITL41F is the same (XXKK1) as ITL41D, which is posted in this topic if required.
I know this will be useful to anyone wishing to revert their phone to get a future OTA, to chefs wanting to base a ROM on it etc. etc., so here it is.
To install, flash this update zip via ClockworkMod.
Enjoy!

Thanks for the ROM - this will be useful for many I'm sure
Can I just ask - is there a reason the recovery image isn't included? It seems from recent threads that this is often requested in order to flash completely back to stock, but no-one seems to have one available. I was just wondering if it there was a specific reason why people haven't been posting it?

Yes apologies - I reedited my post when I saw that also.
Sorry for cross posting on this thread. Hopefully they will release the new updated version soon.
Although it probably worth a look as it has an autoscript to restore your phone to stock by flashing multiple files.
If your phone is rooted and have CWM, Superuser and Adfree installed and you flash this what exactly happens?
Does it uninstall CWM? if not how do you access it?

As far as i know this not touching your recovery.You must lock the bootloader in order to have stock recovery.You must root it again and install rom manager to access it through UI enviroment.I dont know for sure how you can access it with button combination (i think middle volume and power button)

I think your problem is cwm recovery and not the root.You must lock the bootloader in order to have stock recovery.After that the update can installed succesfully
ps: not an expert.From what i read and tried
I know it's required to unlock the bootloader in order to gain root on primoc, but the directions call for flashing a kernel, and I'd like to keep my phone as close to stock as humanly possible. Is there a way to keep the stock kernel and get root, or is it the act of flashing the kernel that gets you root? The reason I ask is that I'd like to be able to use root apps, but I don't want to flash kernels/ROMs.
Sorry if this is a n00b question.
-------------------------
For any poor unsuspecting soul who finds this thread through the almighty Google... The procedure in the next post works. Apparently, if you get the latest and greatest TWRP recovery it will root for you, but the version of TWRP I found did not do that.

Follow the instructions and flash the recovery file and not a kernel. You should now have TWRP recovery installed. Download Superuser.zip from the official website and place it in your sd card. Reboot and go into Bootloader and then into Recovery. From there press the first button and go to where you left the Superuser.zip. Select it and let it finish. Now reboot and you should be rooted.

That wasn't my experience. I had to flash the superuser.zip from recovery to get the su binary and then install the superuser app to get root to work. The general approach does work though!

Just rooting doesn't prevent updates. You just lose root and have to reapply after update.
Custom recovery means you probably need to download the update file and apply it via the recovery instead of the automatic updater.
Changing or removing system files will almost definitely prevent updates being applied.

Then I booted into 15Q. I lost root and TWRP. Flashed over TWRP through fastboot and rooted.

hi sfhub, do I need to do
fastboot oem unlock
before doing
fastboot boot twrp.img ?
I've been rooted since day one and gotten ota updates fine.
I use twrp and just make sure to flash supersu each time and call it good. Not a single problem on my end.
Even still if you bork it just flash factory image. It's pretty simple to get out of a pinch. But rooting and ota should work fine as long as you keep stock image. Just reflash supersu each time and you're good to go.

If you aren't already unlocked then, yes.
Most people will already be unlocked though if they are rooted.
fastboot oem unlock process will force a factory reset for security purposes so backup anything important.

There are some backup apps that don't need root, but probably need to restore.
You can also try adb backup, but it may not backup 100% of your stuff.
I'm not the best person to ask on the backup as I always unlock before I do most of the software installs just so I can avoid losing customizations later on.

Yes, very simple, just type
fastboot oem lock
I would advise against doing so unless you plan to return the unit though, as if you ever need to do stuff to your system (even factory restore) then you'd need to unlock again, which would factory reset again.

The 1.55 update doesn't appear to want to install properly for me from Google Play. Is this an issue of having the OTA fix installed?

3. Go to Recovery and simply flash the zip
4. Wipe DALVIK CACHE ONLY
5. Done!

I'm using it right now and I'm not facing any issues so far. I hope it will work well for everyone!

hey @batrian,
Can you please guide me how did you make this Deodex with Kamome Tool (Steps)? I tried using the Tool but ended up in a bootloop
i didn't choose zipalign option as it had some issues.My Deodex zip came out to be of 333MB,not like 396MB of other deodex zips.

Oh really? thats bad :-s . okay this is how I did it :
when you run "deodex_bat" first press 1 then you get the folder called "System" and its sub-folders. Then inside it, it must be folders of "app" and "framework" and "priv-app" .
then I manually copied the files for each folder from phones system and put them to their respective folders(folders made in the Kamome.)
then that's all. I chose number 3 and it started to deodex and for me it took very long time to do it.
When done, I chose number 4 and it automatically gave me the zip for flash. and after flashing did the DALVIK-CACHE wipe only.
and i never did zip align.
GOOD LUCK! hope this work.
and sorry for bad Grammar.

when you run "deodex_bat" first press 1 then you get the folder called "System" and its sub-folders. Then inside it, it must be folders of "app" and "framework" and "priv-app" .
then I manually copied the files for each folder from phones system and put them to their respective folders(folders made in the Kamome.)
then that's all. I chose number 3 and it started to deodex and for me it took very long time to do it.
When done, I chose number 4 and it automatically gave me the zip for flash. and after flashing did the DALVIK-CACHE wipe only.
and i never did zip align.
GOOD LUCK! hope this work.
and sorry for bad Grammar.

Oh v5 is out? Now I read the thread and just saw it. well I used version 3 that time and it was kitkat compatible.
and for manually copying. I took the long way. I copied them to sd card then I connected phone to laptop then transferred them to the respective folders.

Hi Guys!
This the "DEODEXed" stock Kitkat 4.4.2 (10.5.A.0.230) ROM from US Generic.
You need to have the KitKat Rom installed before flashing this!
Instructions :
1. Download it from Drive
2. Put it on SD Card
3. Go to Recovery and simply flash the zip
4. Wipe DALVIK CACHE ONLY
5. Done!

I'm using it right now and I'm not facing any issues so far. I hope it will work well for everyone!

As long as you don't install xposed I think you are OK.

You have to unlock the bootloader too. Unblocking the bootloader will wipe your device.
As a rule of thumb, I always unlock bootloader on day one of purchasing my devices. (mostly Nexus or OP so far). This way you avoid potentially losing data.
Or u can download systemless xposed which will allow to turn on and off to use Android pay

root (access) is obtained via apps like SuperSU
xposed has nothing to do with root access - it is an additional framework allowing for low level modifications (like amplify, etc)
unlocking bootloader is always the first step, from there you can flash supersu (which is NOT just an APK file).
there's a number of threads about it that can explain it better than i.
