Hey guys. Before I begin, I want to apologise if I'm posting in the wrong spot, I'm relatively new here... On to the actual issue:

 

So, I've had this Droid RAZR M for about a year now. Over all, it's been good to me, and it's been an awesome first smartphone. To clean it up, over these past few months, I've done a few factory resets, and about six months ago, I rooted it for the first time. Everything was working great until very recently, about a month ago, in fact that Google apps started acting up. First, it was the Play Store, with the common, but dreaded, "No connection. Retry?" error. At this point, every other app was working. After about two days, Google Now, YouTube, and Google Play Music began having similar issues. With Now, it's the, "Sign-in error," message. On YouTube, it reads, "There was a problem with the network." Worst of all, is Google Play Music. All of my songs are there, and it displays my Google Account name where it should, but, when I go to play a song that's not saved to my device, (and sometimes, ones that are,) it displays a message saying, "Couldn't play the stream you requested." This is not an issue on any of my other devices, and this issue occurs both inside and outside of connected wifi zones. I have uninstalled and reinstalled updates manually, but to no avail. I'd really like to avoid factory resetting, because, I just got everything reconfigured from the most recent one I did.

 

Thanks a lot guys.

- Adam.

Sounds like you may have deleted or frozen a required system Google apk. Since you stated you rooted bit didn't mention unlocking I would assume you are on stock. Look up House of Moto and read thru the thread. Then grab the fxz for your current version or newer and do a flash with save data. It will get your system back into shape.

Thanks, for the reply, @livinginkaos. What exactly would this do? Would it just restore system defaults minus app layout and stuff? Even though I've had this device for a while, I'm still an Android/Linux noob.

Thanks, man!

What this does is bring it back to like it was when you got it out the box. No root, no downloaded apps, no texts. Its like a factory reset but re-installs everything like it suppose to be. After you do that you can re-root it.

You don't need to download anything from the xda link, just use it for instructions. Download from the links I provided for the most recent version. Let me know if this helps you out.
