Flashing / Flexing the Razr V3x.
by ebentley and poetic_folly
but mostly ebentley. ;)
The easiest way to modify your phone is to use what is known as a monster pack (MP). The MP contains a bootloader,
language pack, flash file and a flex file and updates them all at once. You would follow these flashing instructions to install it.
Otherwise you can perform a flash and a flex independently. The most recent flashes and flexes for your Motorola Razr V3x can
be found in the downloads section here.
There are various types of flash files out there. There is a "flash" (the original factory unbranded default one), the
"reflash" (which does not cause you to lose any personal data) and the "reflash mlp" (a reflash file minus the "LP" or language pack
included). Read what language packs a flash comes with or you could find yourself not being able to read the menus of your
phone when you are done installing it.
If you ever flash or flex your phone or perform some other mod and it gets away from you and your phone gets screwed up for
whatever reason, flashing with a monster pack is a widely accepted cure all. Flashing with a monster pack will erase all your
personal data from the phone like pictures, ring tones, etc.
So, most people update their handsets with the following firmware because ObeyMoto works with it.
R25221
1LD_U_85.98.D0R_LP0039_DRM0001_VSTU_206_0C_JPIN_R25221GENERIC_03_USRAZRV3XT677EDR25221008_1FF.shx. The
current Reflash file is: R252211LD_U_85.99.50R_cioccio.shx (Keeps your ObeyMoto).
Are you ready to go? Did you back up anything you don't want to lose first? A flash shouldn't delete anything, but if it stops
unexpectedly part way through or your computer loses power or the phone loses power or the data cable becomes disconnected,
anything could happen. Back up whatever you added to the phone that you don't want to lose. All right, let's go??..
I am going to cover how to flash and flex with RSD Lite 2.7. This program is considered warez, and will not be linked to nor
hosted by us. Google is your best friend here. You will use the same steps for flashing your phone with a monster pack, flash
(reflash) file, and a language pack. It takes about ten minutes to flash with the monster pack. It takes about two minutes to
flash a reflash. It will take about one minute to flash a language pack. In the examples below, I?m using the Current 85.99.50R
Reflash file.
All right, lets get started. I'm assuming that you have already followed the
Get Connected tutorial and your
phone has been recognized by your computer, and all drivers are installed. Launch RSD Lite 2.7. Then connect your phone (while
it's turned on) to the data cable. The program should detect your phone shortly. If your phone is not detected (and you are
certain you have everything installed), disconnect the data cable, then shut your phone off, and manually put it into bootloader
mode. You do this by pressing and holding down the "*" and "#" keys while pressing and holding down the on button until you
see text display on your screen. Now connect the phone back to the data cable.
When your phone is connected you will see a message like the one below in the first line of the program's status area. Click the
button labeled "..." and find where the flash is on your computer that you want to use.
Click the "Start" button. Now you should see what's displayed on the six to eight screens as the program processes each code
group and does various other things.
Your phone will display this as RSD Lite upgrades your software.
The flashing process will continue like this very quickly through a couple more Code Groups, then
When it's finished you will see the following status displayed. Click the "Close" button and you are done. Disconnect your
phone from the cable and check it out.
Well, that?s all there is to it. You?ve just successfully flashed your handset using RSD Lite 2.7. Congratulations!!
