How To Unroot the Motorola Droid RAZR

How to Unroot Your Motorola Droid Razor: A Step-by-Step Guide

Before we begin, it's essential to reiterate that this guide is specific to rooting and unrooting your Motorola Droid Razor using the Rudy method and Doom Lord's script. If you have used a different root method or created a video for rooting your device using Doom Lord's script, this guide may not be suitable for you.

To start, we'll be referencing a post from XDA, which provides information on rooting and unrooting multiple devices. Additionally, we'll be relying on Doom Lord's original post for guidance on how to proceed with the process.

Once you've read through the post and are familiar with the instructions, you're ready to begin the unrooting process. The first step is to download the unrooted unrooting script 1.0 from the XDA section related to your device. This script is available in multiple versions, but it's essential to use the most current one, as indicated by Doom Lord's post.

After downloading the script, find a safe place to store it on your computer. It's crucial to avoid cluttering your desktop or creating a confusing folder structure, as this may lead to confusion when extracting the files.

Next, right-click on the downloaded file and select "Extract here." This will extract two files: a folder labeled "file" and an executable file named "run me - unroot.bat."

Before proceeding with the extraction process, ensure that your device is connected to your computer via a USB sync cable. Now, navigate to your device's menu settings, click on "Applications," and then select "Development." Make sure that USB debugging is enabled and allow mock locations if you have chosen to do so.

With these settings in place, pull down the notification panel on your device and click on the USB connection to verify that it's set up for charging only. Avoid selecting PC mode or USB mass storage mode, as this will prevent ADB from communicating with your device effectively.

Once you've verified the correct settings, double-click the "run me - unroot.bat" file to begin the unrooting process. You'll be prompted to press any key after completing the initial steps. Press Enter to initiate the script.

The script will run in the background on your computer and perform the necessary actions to unroot your device. It's essential to note that this process may take some time, so be patient and avoid interrupting the script if possible.

As the script runs, you'll observe your device automatically shutting down and rebooting when it's complete. Once your device has restarted, you should notice that the Super User app icon is no longer present on your home screen.

If you attempt to access an application that requires root access, such as Titanium Backup, you should receive an error message stating that it couldn't acquire root privileges. This confirms that your device has been successfully unrooted.

And that's it! You've successfully completed the process of unrooting your Motorola Droid Razor using the Rudy method and Doom Lord's script. Take a moment to appreciate your hard work, and don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhi this is brian from the unlocker.com and today we're going to show you how to unroot your motorola droid razor now before we begin and i'm going to reiterate this several times throughout this video not to be obnoxious but to be very clear if you have used a root method that differs from the rudy method that we have used and created a video to show you how to root your device using doom lord's script then this video is not for you if you've used any other script files even if it's very similar to doom lord if it's not doom lords files that that you used then you do not want to run this script because it could potentially brick your device all right and here is the post from xda and this is doomlord's post for rooting and unrooting this is for multiple devices so keep that in mind but i i just want to reiterate again if you did not use one of these files down here doesn't matter what version but if you didn't use doom lord's files to root your device then you do not want to use do more files to unroot your device so just keep that in mind down here he's got a section for unrooting and it says once when root read this it's actually going to take you to a sony xperia play section of the forum and from there you're going to download this unrooted unrooting script 1.0 and this is a very small file just right down here you'll see at the bottom doomlord v1 on rooting that is the most current one as of you know december 30th uh by the time you are unrooting maybe you're looking at a different version of the file but use whatever he's got listed as his most current based on the first post all right once you click on that unrooting zip file go ahead and put it somewhere where it's not going to be in a cluttered environment so make a new folder on your desktop it doesn't matter where you put it just put it somewhere where you can find it and where it's not cluttered and not going to get confused for any other files then just right click on it and extract here and you're going to get two different files with that you're going to get a a file folder that's actually labeled file and then you're going to get run me hyphen unroot.bat that's going to be the actual script file that we're going to double click once our device is hooked up to the computer we will show you uh what it looks like from the device's point of view but all that's going to happen when you click this is just a script dialog pops up so not really much to see there now before we connect our phone to our computer via usb sync cable the first thing we're going to need to do is go into our menu so go to settings then go down to applications click on development and then you want to in make sure that usb debugging is enabled allow mock locations is not required but anytime i turn on debugging i turn that on as well so it really doesn't matter if you do or don't but definitely usb debugging must be turned on all right now we've got our phone connected to our laptop via usb sync cable and you're going to want to pull down the notification panel here click on the usb connection and make sure that it is set up for charge only you don't want it in pc mode or usb mass storage mode because then adb can't properly communicate with it so make sure sure it's on charge only and hit okay and now what we're going to do is we're going to double click the run me hyphen unroot.bat file that we downloaded so we're going to double click that and it's going to tell us to press any key as soon as we've done all the things that we've shown you which we have so we're going to hit enter and now it's just going to run and the script's going to run in the background on the computer it's going to unroot your device as you can see it's automatically going to turn it off and it'll reboot it and when it comes back up we'll show you that we no longer have root access all right so once the phone's rebooted we're greeted with the normal home screen go ahead and open your app drawer and scroll over and look for the super user app icon and you'll notice that it is missing so we no longer have a super user app it was removed by the script and then if we click on an app that requires root access like titanium backup it should come up with the error that says it could not acquire root privileges so your phone is now officially unrooted this is brian with the unlocker.com and hope this helped see you next timehi this is brian from the unlocker.com and today we're going to show you how to unroot your motorola droid razor now
