I've tried the previous workarounds mentioned here on XDA, but found them a bit tedious and the results were buggy. After havingto RSD back to restore stock 183.46.15.XT907, I just tried kingroot (the desktop version)
1. Install desktop version from kingroot.net
2. enable usb debugging and make sure all drivers are installed
3. connect usb as media device
4. Press "start root"or whatever on Kingroot (cant remember if I had to allow computer fingerprint on phone. So just watch for a promt on the Razr)
5. It took about ten minutes or even more. (not sure cause I hopped in the shower. When I got out, I was fully rooted).
Note: some of Kingroot's prompts are in chinese, so you may not be able to read everything when installing. But the progress of root is shown the whole time.
Do NOT install SU. Kingroot installs its own superuser on your phone, which has turned out to be an amazing app that includes bloatware remover and other stuff. I'm very happy with it.
Basically its a one-click root and superuser for those of us stuck on BL-locked stock 183.46.15.XT907
