Man I wish I knew how this root shyt worked... :bryan:


Verizon Motorola Droid Razr Maxx gettin :flabbynsick: on me, even tho I keep it customized to the nines & am pretty technologically adept. Got out the pen after doin 4 years, had all my research done on Droids & iPhones, and chose the better, smarter of the two options to suit my lifestyle :win:




I still got this (smart? possibly overly paranoid) perception of rooting my device though, my upgrade ain't until April, and this like my 2nd or 3rd phone, I already paid a decent price when my first Razr cracked from sitting on it, cuz I wasn't insured and wasn't due for an upgrade.:snoop: I don't quite need the rooting PROCESS explained to me, but it seems that none of the latest CyanogenMod updates are for the Razr Maxx. I just want my shyt running 4.4 mane :sadcam: Is that too much to ask?


G$DG brehs, is this possible at all? :dwillhuh:

you have the droid razr maxx on verizon, right? that should be the xt912/spyder, which is the CDMA version. doesn't look like 4.4 has been ported over (officially or unofficially) for your phone yet. on xda developers i saw an unofficial cm 11 / 4.4 rom for the international GSM version (xt910), it'll prolly be a minute before a developer has a 4.4 build out for your device

you could give the CM 10.2 m1 rom a whirl to get up to 4.3 / jellybean, just be aware that CDMA 3g is an issue with all CM 10.2-based ROMs

but yeah breh, rooting is still risky, definitely read up on the specifics in your device's subforum on xda developers. this thread looks like a good starting point, remember to backup whenever advised and not to deviate from instructions/steps...and be really careful if you have to manually input any commands

i think i'm gonna let my tmo s3 take the 4.4 plunge later today :lupe:
