Just saw your answer now...
Where is this mythical leak? The only leak I found was taken down. I saw Th3ory's script, but could not find the leak.
- do you have any links handy?
- I think I saw a post from you a few pages back where you said you lost root? Is that so? The razr util. tool has an option to root the leak...
- I wonder if you could use the fastboot files to go back to 173 (or whatever the last update ver. was) to get back in the update path...

u should get up on the leak.dt made a modifier to get rid of most of the bloat ware verizon put on it. and the best part bout the leak everything works at least to me it does no spotty data or wifi connections.

I flashed ROMs all the time on my OG Droid and never ran into any problems. I am new to this safe-system but seem to have done that right (really a no brainer) but I am having issues flashing this ROM on my Maxx - I am getting "E:Can't open /sdcard/ICS-....... (Bad)" message. And when I wiped Dalvik I got "E:unknown volume for path [/sd ext]"

I am using the sd card from my OG droid since I had all my music and pics on it - is that the issue? Should I format it?
thanks

hmm...u say u have music and pics on ur sd card huh...u should use moto cast or google music for ur music and view ur pics threw motocast and format ur sd card it could be the problem or just get a new card and transfer files over..never kno but i had problems like this before and a simple reformatting my sd card seems to fix that

I hope you are doing this with safe mode enabled...
The first time I did this I forgot to enable it and royally f**ed up my phone. Curious thing is, it would boot after formating system... it would take me to the screen lock. Go figure...

There is a sticky under the RAZR Hacks with lots of details.
1st, make a backup while in non-safe and select the location of the backup -the external card.
2nd, switch to safe mode. Wipe data, factory reset, cache, davlik, etc -the works.
3rd, install your rom (remember to be in safe mode!!!!!) Do a cache wipe -just in case before rebooting.
Make sure you have enough room in your external card in order to make backups and switch modes. Each backup takes about 1.5 gigs and when you switch to safe, the /system folder and some other stock stuff gets backup up as well -this could take a lot of room. To give you some perspective, my stock 16gb card with about 3gigs used (pics, music, etc) was left with only 4gbs of free space after I was done backing up stuff and switched to safe.

And btw, I think the ROM file was pulled... using a file utility tool verify the md5 sum is the same as the one in the hive.

Other than that... I have no idea. Good luck and may the android gods have mercy on your soul.

[akiles]

Dude, do you live here? just kidding, thanks for the link and the prompt answer.
I saw somewhere else you can go back to .173 using fastboot.
I'll try this tonight!
Thanks again!

I plan to try the motocast for music and photos - just haven't had the time to set it up yet. Backing up music / pics on sdcard now then I'll try a format. Wish me luck - never had issues before but I fly by the seat of my pants doing this stuff since I have absolute no background in this type of thing - thank god for droidforums!

On the leak now -you were right: sweeeeet
One question -what does this mean:
- Outbound Calling/texting/Data while roaming are not possible
I feel REALLY stupid for asking this, but what is roaming? I remember from the old days of my good old moto StartTac (the best phone ever and the most underrated) that I would incurr roaming charges if I made a call in DC -I live 30 miles south, in VA. After that I had a nextel with "free roaming" -I went to Montrreal the same year, and that thing worked! So I have "free roaming" with vz too so I never really bother to learn what the hell it is...
Anybody?

Oh, and my leak is rooted -this sounds inaproppriate -heheheh

Too funny - I downloaded that zip file three times thinking I didn't download right and tried flashing it about five different times - now I check the file and its empty - thanks for the hint to check the file otherwise I would have keep trying and would have gone crazy eventually.
Is there an ICS ROM out there for the Razr?

 

[akiles]

If you go to the hive, and click on the razr section you'll see a couple of roms for the razr based on ICS. Other than that, your other option is the leak (thanks, Holla420!) which is VERY good.

I think you want B20, which has been pulled. Many people were having data issues (I had some, but it was not a deal breaker for me).
I have the file on my phone and I think I can uploaded to sugarsyc -I'm not sure about the size limit for uploads, but I can try tonight.
Let me know if you want to try it... otherwise, I'd recommend you follow holla420's advise and try the leak -I'm using it, half-debloated it myself by freezing some crap and it is sweet.

Only issue I have is none of my tethering apps work

Sorry - but what is "the hive"???

 

[akiles]

That's the site where Th3ory and Dhacker host their files.
