[ROM] CM10 for RAZR HD XT925

This is a CM10 (Jelly Bean, Android 4.1.2) firmware for RAZR HD. It's not a official CyanogenMod, and it's not supported by CM team.
Disclaimer: THIS FIRMWARE IS IN BETA STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT.
I'm not responsible by phone bricks of any kind, or any other damage this firmware may cause to you, to your phone or any accessories conected to your phone.

For now I only have how to test the XT925. I think this version will have problems with mobile data on XT926 dev edition (if it boots, dont know), because some patches not included in CM are needed to make it work, dhacker29 is working on the CDMA patches.
This firmware can be used with a unlocked bootloader or with safestrap.
Download links and information about what is working can be found on the website:
http://www.linuxmobile.org/razrhd
Instructions:
Download the zip (cm-10-*-UNOFFICIAL-epinter-xt925.zip) and copy to your sdcard.
Boot into recovery.
Backup your firmware and data!
Install the firmware (install zip from...).
Install gapps (install zip from...).
Wipe data/cache.
Reboot.
Thanks dhacker29 for collaboration

But it scares me a little
So I'm guessing this doesn't work for cdma version because there's no unlocked boot loader for cdma right?' I have a safe strap and a custom Rom on now but no unlocked boot loader x and there's no other kernal so I guess that's why we need unlocked loaders.
CDMA is XT926 no ? they don't have the same radio, you can't use GSM roms on CDMA phone and vis versa...
Epinter,
I'm new to Motorola as a brand, but not to CWM, unlocked bootloaders or custom ROMs. I asked you on the CWM thread on what to press in order to have the CWM menu. As soon as someone tell me, I will test your ROM, as I don't need for now my camera or WiFi.
I have an unlocked bootloader, XT925 model and when I press power and vol +/- I boot to the stock Motorola recovery. I followed the instructions on the CWM thread to load it using mfastboot, but I can't load CWM after a reboot.
Thank you very much for your help.
Edit: Nevermind, I found the answer here http://www.theandroidsoul.com/twrp-and-clocworkmod-cwm-recovery-for-motorola-droid-razr-hd-xt926/
I will try CM10 now.
Also, you mentioned that call service was broken. Is it already fixed on this version? I can live without Wifi or camera, but can't live without voice calls.
Thank you.

All right, I googled the problem and it seems the best way to handle this is to get rid of the "assert" command in /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script.

For those wondering, the zip file needs to be updated; NOT extracted / re-zipped.
What I did (on Debian):
7za x cm-10-20121115-UNOFFICIAL-epinter-xt925.zip META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script

Alright... CM10 up and running... Voice seems to be fine. All in all very very smooth...
WIFI is indeed not working... Once you manage to nail the bugs down, I might keep CM10 permanently on my device.
In the meantime, I'll test it as much as I can considering that I don't have mobile data for now...

Odd keyboard behaviour noticed in Messaging app. Upon creation of a new text msg, keyboard pops up and lets me enter a phone number in the "To" field. But once I switch to the "Message" field, keyboard disappears very quickly and I need to tap the "Message" field a few times to show the keyboard back... I can't reproduce this strange behaviour each time...

In "Settings / Status bar", when using "text" instead of "Icon" for "Signal status style", it shows a long integer number... Not sure if that's the intended behavior (but this looks useless to me...).

I don't know if Apollo is supposed to display thumbnails embedded in my locally stored m4a audio files, but it doesn't.
No controls within Apollo to start/stop/pause/forward/rewind??? I have to use the controls in the status bar.

Now homescreen is getting unstable as well... Sliding left/right, then homescreen restarts.... Even standing by, untouched, seems to restart on its own from time to time.
I think I'm gonna have to reboot every couple of hours or so, homescreen/app drawer way too unstable.

Yes, it's useful, I will save this. But now I want to focus on wifi and other critical bugs. The minor bugs I will try to debug later. Thanks very much!
The wifi it's being very hard to make work. I'm working on wifi with dhacker29.
EDIT: The wrong number showed in the signal isn't just a bug on the text signal configuration. The signal level it's not been reported correctly... Here the signal bars are always full...

When you have a time to test again, add this line to your build.prop:
ro.telephony.ril_class=QualcommSharedRIL
This should fix the signal bug.
