Hi all,
Is there a way of rooting a RAZRi without unlocking the bootloader?\
I'm on Retail Brazil Latal Jellybean 4.1.2
Thanks in advanced.

Not at the moment. Devs do not look into it since it is possible to get root via unlocking the BL, which is sad
how about we start a "petition"? Cause by looking at the views of this threat it seems like people ARE interested in a solution but the devs are not looking into it because they think that noone needs it.
Any thoughts about this?
NVM...Do what ever makes you happy

I was just about to post this question. I agree, the sheer number of views reflects the interest in this method.
I disagree that Moto updating would patch putting off devs - in all the years that I've owned Android phones with different manufacturers, that never put off any devs that I spoke with. Many acknowledged that it was getting harder but they never gave up. Then, someone would find a 'one root for all on this firmware for many phones' which completely override the manufacturer's 'patch'.
As for the petition...I have seen contributions to projects work. If it's a matter of pledging small donations I'd be happy to contribute, I have in the past. I'm not totally sure on the rules on this, they have changed I think. Another issue is that I believe it is Dan Rosenberg who is usually successful with Moto devices so he may be the best man for the job.
Even using an unlocked bootloader, finding information and sharing it on RSD Lite is difficult. Try Googling it: I cannot find a good, comprehensive guide that could be offered to newbies. You can find pieces on how to use it and where to find files, that's it. With the only root solution on Jelly Bean being using an unlocked bootloader, this RAZR i section fills with more bricked phones day after day after day...Any simpler root solution would go a long way to avoiding this.

Why not just write one, or use this

well reading word by word more than one time, knowing what you are doing, straight following the instructions step by step and asking if you are unsure will avoid bricked phones, too.
Most of the bricked phone owners here read the wrong instruction or flashed the wrong files, cause they did not read word by word or did not ask when they were unsure doing the right things.
Just have a look through the threads: they mostly tried to root or flash with ics-files over JB....

I already wrote couple emails to D. Rosenberg and he immediately got back to me but his answer was a no. He is not going to look into getting root without unlocking the BL since there is a "perfectly viable manufacturer-supported unlock mechanism" (BL unlock)
The Reason i've posted yesterday, but no one was listening. He already stated that he won't root an unlockable Device, when there was the discussion about rooting the XT910/XT912 (JB).

I read German poorly now but the first seems to be instructions. I know there are many sets of instructions but I haven't found comprehensive guides that really go through what the software is, what all of it's capabilities are, what should not be done. For example, people keep using RSD Lite on here, downgrading Android version then getting a bricked phone. Why isn't that included in instruction guides? We need to know everything we can and can't do to avoid bricks.
Please, if you are know much about could you write a short guide of what you can do and what not to do?

Ah ha. That is a shame.
Rooting is still safer for the average user I think than unlocking the bootloader.
The problem with using RSD Lite is that it is hard to find a friendly nooby guide for everyone. Everyone says 'use it' then laugh at you when you brick your phone.
Hi guys,
so I read an article this morning that the folks from Lookout rooted the google glass via the exploit discovered by bluebox : Android security bug 8219321
It should be possible to get root on the Razr I with this exploit, does anyone know if someone is working on that?
Still by telling from the view of this threat people are really interested in getting su without unlocking the BL.
Help

Hi, this threat is about JB, but here you go:
root ICS
Friends okay? I have a serious problema.Antes me say ... yeah I already read a lot about this and not found the answer. Could help me because just can not do "root" in my device. Already tried all the methods ... all the same. Example: In attempting to root the traditional method (go in recovery) to debug without debugging ... with apk without apk, already tried everything...One tip ? Thanx

Please don't insult us by claiming you have already read and not found the answer. Root method works - just search, read and follow the instructions.

If you're going to post, at least help a newbie out.
JxCarr - try this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/moto-x-qa
That's not even a question that should be helped. 1 post, and joined this month. I read my ass off for about a month before jumping into anything. It's called LEARNING. They would like you to do it for them. We were all super noob once. IF the question was: "Hey, I did this, this, and this. I'm at this point and I tried this, but now its doing this? I tried fixing it by doing this. And I don't know what to do." That deserves a pointer/answer/help.
hi all. have MI 8 with 9.6.4.0
downloaded MIUI 10 global beta and flashed using MiFlash utility but left the Clear all and Lock selected.
now I've a brick because: at the end when phone rebooted go to locked bootloader.
Trying unlock utility i get the green dot at "verifying device", but stop at unlocking with "current account not bund to this device" and i cannot change dev options in the phone as it's clean and don't have rom.
I'm sadly stuck...
Any suggestion would be really appreciated... ((
There are a lot of threads.
You bricked your Mi 8.
Contact your Seller.
Sorry for you.

Seconded, there are many threads all over the place and you should've taken extra precaution. I don't think there is anything you can do. It is bricked and useless. You can tey seeking help from Mi Store.
I unlocked all of them since mi 2... I can say I'm a real jxxk...
still ask to myself whyi've been so light on doing it.
I will post if I will find any solution useful for other...
bye
