So far these are all the broken things I've run into and would appreciate if someone else can confirm or if I just got a bad flash. To clarify, I used the method mattlgroff posted and have root.

Lock screen missing on all settings
Notification bar shows nothing but time, settings icon, and Verizon branding
Home and Search button so not respond what-so-ever (not touch sensor, cease to function on webdock as well. INCLUDING the software home button)
Vibrate doesn't seem to function
Power off menu doesn't have anything except power off...
seemingly random 4G and WiFi reception drops (not to 0 bars... but down to 2 bars from maxed out for no reason)

These are just a few things I've noticed in the few minutes I've been running this update. I'm going to assume that a factory reset will drop my root like every other build so I don't particularly want to do that.

What do you mean its missing in settings?

That's what the status bar is supposed to do...

All soft keys work perfectly for me

Don't know about vibrate

Power Menu also has airplane mode and volume toggles

Not getting drops, just signal isn't as good.

You got some weird problems with your build lol

I removed SS and followed the instructions in the OP. Once the update was done, I reinstalled SS. I was setting up my rom slots again and made the mistake of rebooting with one of the rom slots selected instead of the stock slot. I tried to go back into recovery and factory reset but that just made things worse. When I tried to go back into recovery, it showed the tipped over android but would not bring up the menu to let me select anything. So I figured I was screwed so I tried something drastic...the 1.82 utility. I went into AP fastboot and ran the utility. It showed the files being written for .211 but I kept thinking there is no way this is going to work. Once the utility finished, I rebooted the phone and it showed the update screen with the android with the thing spinning in its chest. The phone rebooted and just sat at the Motorola screen. I rebooted again into recovery and this time it showed me the menu. I chose to apply the update again and to my surprise and answering a bunch of prayers, it restored my phone to the JB update! Of course I don't have root now but at least I'm not bricked.

i got it installed and while im no stranger to rooting and temp unroots and the whole process, even though voodoo sees it, it keeps on hanging w/ restoring root, supersu accepts but when i open supersu says binary isnt installed,and then reg superuser when i installed it and disabled reg su nogo for either

On all settings... as in the lock screen doesn't appear when set to pin, slide, password... etc.

That's what the status bar is supposed to do...

So it's supposed to be blank and not show any notifications? Didn't think so.

Probably a bad flash then... I'll try to factory reset and see how that goes. Else I guess I'll be trying out some fastboot.

Thanks a million times Matt.................Just updated both of my Razr's and kept the wifi tether from verizon using the 1-0 method and everything is still kicking. I have been reading through the comments and I think too many peeps that are just itching to throw this on are making some mistakes that could be avoided if they would have ever rooted or used a rom or flashed a phone at all. ( Not trying to be an gluteus maximus but I think this is the prob. ) I have had 6 shots of Rumple tonight and flashed this without any probs.

Once again Matt thank you sooooooooooooo much!

Installed with out a hitch (took forever).
Works great.
Thanks to all...

[Oaklands]

Glad to see people having success. It would be a heck of a lot easier to keep up with this thread if they would get the Tapatalk problems fixed on this forum. Really a pain to have to backtrack to where you left off.

I may be missing something but from the OP "(Yes, we did that twice. And no, you do not want to be Temp. Unrooted when you update.)" you shouldn't be temp unrooted before flashing.

[johnnyfrost]

Ouch... didn't mean to offend anyone with a noob question. I'll be more careful in the future.

don't be so sensitive. your question was answered.

[oatmealboy]

No root here either...

Root only appears to work in TiBU and Nova Launcher for me (was able to run backups in TiBU without a hitch). The SU app only shows those two apps as allowed, even though Automatic Response has been set to either 'Prompt' or 'Allow' (currently set to 'Allow'). In the Voodoo app, everything under 'Status' is checked except for 'Root permission granted'.

I backed up root with Voodoo, and Idid not temp. unroot before flashing. However, I did not update the SU binaries before flashing (still on 3.0.3.2).

i was and i still did, gives me the notification like it is from voodoo OTA but nothing else... had the same issue with ICS in the beginning cant remember what i did to fix it. damn my memory

[Pearkel]

Everything went great here, upgraded and kept root! Very nice Christmas present! Thanks for the great instructions.

[Oaklands]

You have to be temporary unrooted when applying the update. If you dont you'll lose root.

If this is the case then the OP needs to be updated. It specifically says opposite of this.
