As the title says, I am wondering if I can install the current Cyanogenmod (file: cm-10.1.3-xt907.zip) with Safestrape/TWRP. My system version is 98.15.66.XT907.Verizon.en.US, baseband: SM_BP_101031.027.32.81P. I am aware that I have the OTA update that locked my bootloader, nulling the use of motopocalypse.
I did try flashing a Cyanogenmod build to Slot 2 of my recovery which ended up softbricking my phone. I might have messed up something during the flashing, or perhaps didn't change a certain setting.
The Safestrape version I have and used is 3.11, the latest build for my device is 3.12. Would 3.12 be any better when flashing Cyanogenmod?
Any help would be appreciated.
.66 was the OTA prior to the one that locked the bootloader. .78 locked the BL. Try to see if you can unlock.
System version 98.30.1 XT907 Does anyone know if my version is unlock able or not?

Damn, ok. Thank you
Thanks, but the question remains. Is it possible to install CyanogenMod or other Roms with Safestrape/TWRP? I tried flashing it once again, but after I select reboot phone, it remains black. I have to do a hard reset on my phone to get it to recovery to restore the stock.

TWRP is for those of us with an unlocked boot loader... You can use safestrap sure... Not to many roms for it most all is stock/stock based... There is a old cm ROM you can flash in safe strap but it's an older one and I think the camera was broken... There is topics all over here about what you can do with a locked boot loader... Have you tried to unlock it yet...

Thanks for your posts and knowledge!

You can use this & restore your data back when done-the steps are in the op.
If all you need is custom recovery. Rom manager works and will allow you to flash cwmr right from your rooted phone- no pc needed.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2382561
Motorola device manager says that there are updates available for my razr m. I'm wary to update "OTA" because I dont want to loose root/bootloader.
I'm pretty happy with the stock ROM (still called motoblur?) Is there a stock rooted rom with all the radio updates and security stuff thats the latest version?
The only other android phone I had was a sprint HTC EVO. That phone it seemed would always have a stock rooted ROM based on the newest updates. Is that the case with the RAZR M?
Thanks for the help and any info that can be provided guys.
Love this phone =)

Yeah, take the update, you'll probably need stock recovery to do it, and then re-root or you can just flash one of these: http://batakang.com/ftp/?dir=devs/mhous33/XT907 . The first zip can be flashed in recovery and the other is for RSD. You'll need to root these too, but that's easy enough if you're unlocked.
Okay I have safe strap recovery 4.33 or something like that. Where can I download the stock recovery?
I seem to remember clockwork was able to hot swap recoveries. Would that be a good method for swapping to stock then back to safe strap?
Also, do I just download the OTA in zip form? If so, where can I find it at?
Sorry for all the questions and thanks to everyone helping me with this.

Yes.
For the life of me I can't figure out how to do that. I've nosed around everywhere in safestrap and can't find where to go to flash stock recovery. You have been a lot of help already man thank you.

Could you just fast boot it... fastboot flash recovery "filename"... like you would twrp.... I really have no idea...
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
Thank you I'll try that.
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, I haven't found a stock recovery.img that's flashable. Just flash the stock recovery.img in fastboot, exactly the same way you loaded up TWRP.
I took the ota with twrp installed and unlocked BL. It flashed and at the end twrp asked if I wanted to fix root, I selected yes and kept root. I was wary in doing it by reading the forums, afraid I was going to lose root, but it stayed. I'm now using stock ROM with arrrgh kernel and seeder. Its running extremely smooth.

I was cleaning up & deleted it. Fixed.
Where can I find arrggh kernal and seeder?
Okay so because of a previous response on this thread, I took the OTA. I had TWRP, root, and unlocked BL.
After the update, TWRP appears to be gone along with safestrap. I think my bootloader is still unlocked but I'm not sure how to tell.
Can someone please tell me how to get root back and how to get my customer recovery back? I am having such a hard time with this phone getting it to work properly. I remember with my EVO I had it down to a science but I've forgotten a lot of steps and many things have changed since then.
I need like a noob guide I think lol.
To reiterate, got latest OTA. My bootloader is still unlocked as far as I know. Need root and custom recovery back. Thanks XDA.
Next is flashing the arggh kernal and seeder I guess. First things first though.
Should have used voodoo. Now just fastboot cwmr img & flash UPDATESU both on my goodies page. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327340
You can extract the img out of the zip.

how can i fix it ? and why i have this problem i flash my phone many times and this is the first time i hace this problem
thnx
Try going into the stock recovery and wiping the cache. If that doesnt work, do a factory reset using the stock recovery.
I tried do what you suggest but still don't work :/

Not much I've used all of them. When I flashed 4.3 I did it with images from the Google page in bootloader mode. I updated all my Android pc software "I use Windows". I locked and unlocked, then flashed in bootloader. I had one issue I missed spelled something but very thing went well

Try flashing the 4.3 baseband and see if it loads. If it does then I suggest you use a hybrid baseband by morrislee.

Just download any custom rom install package and flash with custom recovery.
Obviously you already have custom recovery.
I don't believe bootloader version matters for custom rom.

Sorry I don't know about miui never used it on sg4, I used it on HTC desire HD and never liked it.
With out knowing myself, can you not flash custom rom at all,? have you actually tried? Does it error out while install any custom rom?
I'm not advanced enough with sg4 and I'm still on old bootloader so no idea about this BS bootloader issues so I'll back out now and I hope someone smarter can help.

Someone else's nandroid isn't going to fix this issue for you. Once you've got the new bootloader, that's it.
So this is not my first rooted device but it is my first time rooting my Razr M since it got upgraded to Kit Kat. It is also my first time installing Xposed so some help would be appreciated.
Yes is safe to install xposed... here is a nice collection of modules ... Be sure to unlock your boot loader before the next ota is pushed as when the next ota comes we may not be lucky enough to find a root method...

Is unlocking the bootloader necessary if i don't plan on installing any custom roms? If i needed to return to stock i could just use RSD right?

When the next ota update comes you will lose root and if there isn't a root exploit for that version with an unlocked BL you can always flash SuperSU via recovery and get root back... And yes rsd is an option to return to stock to accept the next ota
