I'm a newbie and I think you will find both root and cache on your SD internal and not the SD-ext try looking at your SD in ES file explorer and you will find it there both root and cache in ES if I remember it will be the second one from the top

This is when you first open es

I'm puzzled about being able to fastboot back to .173 after flashing this. My understanding so far has been that the .fxz fastboot file does not contain a kernel. And I have to assume that the ICS leak contains an updated kernel. So when you fastboot back to .173 is the ICS leak kernel being left behind on the phone?

I don't know the answer to this but I have been on ICS and fastbooted back it seems to work fine. What is your kernal and I can check mine to see if it is the right one but am pretty sure it is.

I renamed the .zip and the .crc file to Blur_Version.6.12.173.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip and Blur_Version.6.12.173.XT912.Verizon.en.US.crc


Why do you have to rename the files?

Not sure about the download. The files are very small - would have expected them to be much larger. Anyone got a size on the files?

thanks

Thanks for the quick response.

That is the size I expected. When I try to download, all files are 19KB. Which file from the original post is the 470M file? I used Opera to download as a torrent and then I get the error that the file is not available.

Believe or not I am not a noobie (well maybe a little on the Torrent side) - just need to have someone point in correct general direction.

Thanks again.

Yep that is exactly what I have so I guess fastbooting restores it back correctly.

You have to open that file with a torrent program like Bittorrent or utorrent to download the the files.

I was trying everything possible yesterday to get this to work. It was just one of the steps I took. Arcanexvi said the filename shouldn't have to be changed.

The RAZR doesn't use traditional FXZ files. They include kernel information allowing us to roll back completely.
