Unroot Razr i locked bootloader?

Hi. I´ve used motofail2go from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1928509 to root. I haven´t noticed a problem with mi RAZR i sound so, I need to take it to waranty but there´s the problem that the waranty is "avoided" with the root. So I need to unroot my phone. I haven´t unlocked the bootloader, thats why I used motofail2go. Is there any way to unroot?
My firmware is 871.110.13009.XT890.AmericaMovil.en.MX.

Simply reflash any firm with RSD Lite (Use the newer versions, like 6.14)

Hi Guys, i'm noob to this and would appreciate if someone could give me some advise.
If my phone is bought in China, called MT788 here, is it possible and safe to root it and flash the firmware with a retail GB?
The original firmware is IRPMTD_6_02.47.00RPS, IFWI version is 05.A8, Baseband version is L1713-MSA_1.10.05.P01.
Does anyone knows if this AIO works? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2026031
Thanks in advice

If you whether upgrade or downgrade your phone, you'll surely lose the root access
I suggest you use 133

You mean you rooted your phone by downgrading and upgrading method?
It's different from flashing
That roots your phone, but this empties your phone

You must relock bootloader and flash original recovery.img
You can find both in this forum

I did it by flashing stock recovery. The bootloader can be unlocked.
I also removed the root binary(you have the option in super su - full unroot). Then I reflashed twrp.
Good luck.

Try flashing stock firmware with Flashtool. Maybe the latest .292 firmware.

someone can help me?:crying:

What exactly do you mean with rebooting? When you are flashing a firmware? Or after you've flashed and turn on the phone?

when I turn on the phone
Dude, this is exactly what happened to my z. I think it's an inherent flaw in the Z's hardware!
That baseband is dead, it can't be fixed!!! Srry bro
so if you are in kk 4.4.4 baseband cant be fixed just by flashing only Baseband from a previous rom like JB in flashtool? so is now a dead phone? cant baseband file be moded to avoid restart or disable using the damaged hardware?

Does anyone have a 4.4.4 or 4.2.2 TWRP backup? XT1058

Hello everyone! The reason why im asking this is because i want to go back to stock firmware but im afraid of bricking my phonw since im not very experienced. So i wanted to know if anyone had a backup of the system and boot image in the version 4.2.2 or 4.4.4 that you could create which you wouldnt mind sharing. Thanks for your help!
Nobody...?
Hey, I have a mostly untouched 4.2.2 (only rooted) that I plan on updating to 5.1, and I was thinking of making a backup before. PM me in a couple of days to remind me.

Brick alert ! DO NOT DOWNGRADE !
Instead flash a stock based ROM like krypton that doesn't modify your boot loader .
