[Q] NO RSD or Fastboot detection - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

PC will not identify phone in RSD or fastboot. I have tried all drivers I can find, have uninstalled and reinstalled all software, the drivers install in each mode but RSDlite or the official moto software updater will not ID the phone when connected...
I have tried 64 and 32 windows and 3 different cables just to be sure....
Anyone have an idea what to do? I have locked an unlocked this thing once before the 4.5.91 update and again after. I used the official Motorola Software Updater to "update" back to locked stock and have had this issue ever since then....
Fixed: Belkin USB print and storage drivers had to be removed.

anyone??????????????

Simple question, do you have debugging turned on? I was having a similar problem, when i realized it was off I totally face palmed myself

Yesy I have tried everything I can think of... the issue is before booting into android not after... something is blocking my phone from getting picked up by RSDlite and the moto update tool... everything in android functions fine, i have turned USB debug on and off both.

I was able to root through fastboot with no issues so it is ok, but I will be d*&$^d if I can get rsd running so I can unlock... it's not like this is new to me I have unlocked this thing twice before...

You are trying to unlock the same atrix?
Once it's unlock, it remains!
Even if it doesn't show it at booting(maybe disapeared after installing a rom..)

Nope. I am definately locked again. I flashed the official motorola GB software update over my existing GB software to attempt to revert to locked and stock again. It worked but now I am unable to unlock. RSDlite AND the same Moto update do not see my phone in RSD mode.

Actually, once a bootloader is unlocked, its unlocked for good. By reflashing to stock, all that you did was copy over pudding (the SBF file that you flashed when you unlocked the bootloader). This hides the "Unlocked" text in the top corner. To reshow this text and regain access to locked fastboot features, you must reflash pudding via the "Unlock SBF file" available here:
briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader
Im not sure why you can't get into RSD mode. Try the following:
- Insure that your volume buttons work
- Unplug phone, take out battery
- wait 10 seconds
- reinsert battery
- hold down UP (not down, I made that mistake once) volume button firmly
- press and hold power button
- phone should say "Starting RSD Mode"
To enter Fastboot mode do the same steps as above, only press the down volume button instead. When the word "FastBoot" appears, press the up volume button.

I can get into rsd and fastboot on the phone. The driver in rsd installs as se flash where it used to install as nf flash. Fastboot is working fine, I was able to reroot.
The problem is rsd does not identify my device and allow me to flash. I am thinking it is in the se flash driver instead of the previous nf flash driver.
Anyone have an opinion?

SOLVED!!!
So I figured it out! As it happens I picked up a new Belkin 750 router with networked USB support a few days back for my ext drive and printer. Apperently the Belkin drivers were the culprit! After uninstalling them everything picked up and ran like it should. Some of you devs and folks creating guides should note this in the posts so we can give folks a heads up in case it happens to them. I am sure this will happen to someone else.

thanks bro, i thinks that's the best way to update till 4.1.83,
here a little experience i have done
first time i try flash sbf 4.1.83 failed with that error booting,
and pull battery and back again to turn off the phone, and i flash the 1.26
then success with sim card inside,
iam not happy with failing on flash 4.1.83, then i thought the 4.1.83 sbf file is corrupt then i redownload again , after finish download,
i do the second time flashing with new 4.1.83 sbf
this second time is so frustrated, couz it fail again with same error.
until i have success full recover my atrix i do over 10 time flashing
and changing between computer and my notebook
and changing from windows 7 and windows XP
flashing random sbf from 1.83 and 1.26
the lasting i lost my hope , then suddenly the flash was success, WTF ,
lasting i remember is i pull the battery and pull out the sim card , then put back the battery, and do the flash,
the last time i flash 1.26 sbf
i thing
there is something no right with driver or RSD Lite not sync or missing something
until now iam still don't know how to solve it ,
pls anyone can find out what the problem and how to solve it
After about 4-5 hours and 7-8 tries using sfb method to upgrade to 1.83, I finally have a working phone again.
As to how I got stuck on the:
boot fail 4
starting RSD
and in RSD Lite, the phone's device name showing up as "SE Flash Olympus"
I decided to do a few things.
1. Go download the newest USB drivers. the 2.00.52 is what you should be on. If you can't find them, go to Motorola website and get MotoHelper 5.0 or whatever..install and then update your drivers. Restart your pc and keep trying to update your drivers until you get to USB 2.00.52 drivers.
2. USE THE ORIGINAL DATA CABLE THAT CAME WITH THE PHONE.
3. Make sure the connections are not loose at all (could've been why mine was messing up)
4. If you already have motohelper installed...go to the 'driverinstaller.exe' change operation mode to clean and reinstall, make sure the phone is unplugged. and click on start. (note, this part will be anywhere from 2 - 5 minutes depending on speed of your computer)
5. Restart RSD Lite, make sure you're using the latest one, and 'Run as administrator'.
**Go to config>Flash/Flex options... > only "check" Restart after Flexing..**
6. Now, I learned this the hard way...and many forums have it up there... GET YOUR BATTERY TO ABOVE 80% or IT WILL FAIL. (I had to go to a friend's at midnight to charge my battery from his atrix...hahaha)
7. Now turn your phone on again and it'll go to the "failed to boot 4 starting RSD" ...
8. Next, plug it in to your USB cable and click "Show Device" and then click once under the "USB 1 line" to view the device information at the top left. (Everything should be N/A except for your bootloader and you will also read "NS Flash Olympus now, instead of the SE Flash Olympus)
9. Put that '1.83_pudding.sfb' file in the "C:\ " directory to avoid any further complications.
10. Select the "...." browse to the '1.83_pudding.sfb' file and click start. It should work.... Now if it doesn't work... try and try again...
What I did was switched back and forth from 1.23 to 1.83... when I got mine to work, the device was registering as "SE Flash Olympus".
And for the longest time under bootloader, it would register as N/A...I finally decided to switch cables and it worked... once again, make sure to follow these:
* Full battery/80% above
* Stock Atrix USB cable
* 2.00.52 USB drivers
* RSD Lite 5.3.1
EDIT: GOOD LUCK! PM me if you need more assistance as those forward to XDA app

People 51_OLL iron-4.5.2A-lite 5.6 rsd 49_SIGNED_STABLE45LAOLYMPGBPERAR_P011_A026_M001_HWpd_Service1FF with ... and my error:
"Failde to boot 4"
rsd starting mode
I am reading is the battery problem that has to be for 80 %+...
If I turn on the power but the volume key + I fastboot protocol enters
If it lights only the error:
"Failde to boot 4" starting mode rsd
I can do twice the iron sbf with 2.3.6 official stock continues to give me the same error.
Lei may be because the battery is not 100% so fails.
How do I charge if the wall charger no load and light me alone with the legend:
"Failde to boot 4" rsd starting mode.
It can be for this, because this is not a 100% Bateias??
Another query may be that by command fastboot mode can be fixed??

[Q] Noob Killed his phone

Hello, First time Poster here, please bare with me...
I really shouldn't of touched this.....
I have an Atrix w/ the newest updates to it, and attempted to unlock the phone. Using the guide from atrix4ghacks.com Everything started well, then it failed while writing to the device. Now, when I attempt to boot, I get the message
SVF:405;1:2
Failed to boot 0x1000
1- RSD
2-Fastboot
3-NVflash
4- BP HW Bypass RSD
5-BP HW Bypass QC DLOAD
6-BP HW Bypass & Boot AP
7-BP HW Bypass BP only
8- BP SW Bypass RSD
9- Andriod recovery
10- Boot Andriod (no BP)
11- Device UID
12- Console
13- Early USB
14- BP tools
I can get into fastboot, though I honestly am not sure what to do from there. I have the fastboot s/w downloaded, along with the gingerbread OS. When I tried to execute the command via Command prompt. I keep getting unknown command errors (yes, directories within the command are good).
Did I just kill my phone?
I have found a few posts here related to this, though I havent found what seems to be a solid answer to a "fix" for this. I would highly appreciate if someone could try to help me with this.
Sorry, I have broken a noob rule (was pretty late when I watched the video), I thank you all in advanced for any help
STOP!!! YOU HAVEN"T KILLED YOUR PHONE JUST YET!
BUT IF YOU SBF YOU WILL!!!
Go into fastboot and repeat all of the unlock commands, reboot and your phone should boot fine after that.
Ok, I will give that a shot!
Hopefully this will work. THANK YOU!
Ok, is there a way to force charge this?
I had it hooked up and when I was going to execute the flash, it gave the message of battery too low to flash.... Will just leaving it plugged in be ok? or is there a button function I can do that will ensure it charges the unit?
Thanks again

Ugh... from what I heard the battery won't charge while in fastboot mode. You need a standalone charger or a different battery.
So, it doesn't let you get into fastboot at all, huh?
I was afraid of that- I think ive found the solution to that on this link:
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-labs/146492-how-why-make-your-own-motorola-factory-cable.html
That is def. something I can do, and will try. Otherwise, to answer your question. The PC sees the device- It is then the device that says battery is too low to flash (on any mode you choose). Once that message is shown, it wont allow me to access it at all.
Worse to worse, I will take a trip to the att store, or somewhere close to see if they have a wall or base charger. If the doc has a separate power connector, I may try that...

The factory cable would allow you to use the phone without the battery, but it might take more money and time to make then you think.
From what I understand, RSD threw you an error when you were flashing bootloader unlock.
Anyway, you need to find a way to charge your battery and they do the fastboot unlock commands.
If that doesn't work you need to reflash the pudding SBF, (make sure you install the drivers Windows x64 version here prior to flashing and that your phone is recognized in RSDlited)
Get the correct pudding file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1136261
Use instructions here (start at step 1) : http://briefmobile.com/how-to-unlock-the-atrix-4g-bootloader
Note that after pudding is flashed successfully and you do the unlock commands, you will get a failed to boot error (seems like what you have now). You need to redo the unlock commands in fastboot and it will fix the problem.
Good luck.!
Alright!
Got the cable completed and works!
So, battery situation is handled, now to follow your steps
THANK YOU! I will report back and let you know.
Ok,
Clearly I am doing something wrong here.....
I followed the instructions using the newest Pudding_preroot.sbf file, and the RSD software sees the device (as a SE flash not a NS if that matters) and will start the flashing process.
Everything works to plan until the phone does its reboot(99$ executed), gives the fail to boot message again. Then wants to start back up in RSD mode.... The RSD application on the otherhand, it seems like its trying to switch the phone to"BP passthrough mode" I do not see that exact option, and after it failed while rebooting to RSD. I tried to move it to fastboot, BP HW Bypass RSD, and finally BP SW bypass RSD... All with the same failure on the RSD screen:
"Failed Flashing Process. Phone (0000): Error switching to BP Pass through mode (0x70BE); phone connected"
I have a funny feeling that this part is obvious, for that I am sorry for my ignorance.
I am pretty sure this thing is toast...
After getting nowhere after step 12, and multiple attempts to install the pudding_preroot file. I did some searching around and found multiple atrix users that would get the same issues. From the flash showing up as SE rather than NE, to the constant failing during the flash via RSD lite, with the same failure errors.
I noticed a "NV flash" option, and found this link that could establish a recovery USB driver to the phone. Do you think this maybe my next best route?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1123429
My factory cable is good, so that option IS open..... Though I am starting to think this is toast.
We cannot use NVFlash unless we get the SBK (signature file). Currently, we do not have it. Motorola does, so plead to them
OK, well now it decided to only mount itself as a unknown APX device... Not sure the whats or whys there. Nothing has changed since the last failures?
Hey man, I think RSD shows the flashing process as failed since it can't fully reboot the phone.
Go into fastboot mode and try doing the unlock commands. (try this twice if ita fails after the first time).
In the worst case scenario if unlocking fails no matter what, you can flash a complete 2.3.4 rom via SBF and that should get you back up and running.
Let us know how it goes.
Remember, if you can get into RSD or fastboot - the phone isn't bricked yet!

[Solved] Semi-Bricked ATT Atrix

I was trying to unlock the BL in my Atrix via Fastboot OEM Unlock, and when that failed I moved on to other, more complicated methods including RSD Lite 5.5 and sbf flashing.
Now when I power up my Atrix I get no logo, just "failed to boot 0x1000
No OS detected, going to RSD mode in 5 seconds."
And literally everything I do will not work. Fastboot does nothing. RSD fails everything, says "Unable to retrieve interface handle (0x7027); phone connected"
When I connect in RSD Mode now, my Atrix shows up as SE Flash Olympus under the Model column, as it did before, rather than the typical NS Flash Olympus.
I'm trying to flash the full 4.5.91 sbf from the IHOP thread that includes an unlocked BL, but it keeps failing.
Edit: It gets to 99% And then says "Switching phone to BP Passthrough mode," but my phone still fails to boot (0x1000) and I have to pick what mode to put it in. I see now it's not BP HW Bypass RSD. Does anyone know?
Did you try to pull the battery and then boot into fastboot (Hold Vol down & Power) and then issue the unlock commands?

Of course, that's the first thing I did. If it had worked, I wouldn't have a bricked Atrix now. I read somewhere else here on XDA that if your Atrix shows up as "SE" in RSDLite, rather than "NS," you have an Atrix that ATT used to use for testing and support. Not sure how correct that is, but it's possible, considering this is a refurb I bought as a part of the ATT 3rd Party Reseller concession line program. (sub-$50 bill with Unlimited web ftw)
Edit: And now.. for whatever reason, fastboot oem unlock worked. But will my phone boot? It just pops up the M logo, with "Unlocked" in the upper corner. Doesn't appear to be doing anything though.
Edit 2: Now my Atrix shows up as NS in RSDLite. Perhaps there is hope. Flashing the full 4.5.91 sbf from the IHOP thread.
Edit 3: Worked. Now my Atrix is unbricked. Pardon my naivete.
That's quite alright. The only reason I asked is because for people who flash pudding on an Atrix that's already been updated to GB will encounter a "soft brick" in which they need to go through a separate procedure. That's all. Didn't mean to imply you didn't know what you were doing. Glad you got it working.

Did I brick my phone?

So I have been trying a bunch of different roms for the RAZR today and I was having problems with the keyboard not working. I decided to try to load CM9, so I read I need to use "safestrap" and not "bootstrap" that I had been using. I downloaded it, installed then tried to boot into recovery and load CM9.
Now the safestrap boot screen appears and says "safe system disabled" "hit search to continue / hit the menu button to boot into recovery" if I hit the menu button it just reboots, if I hit search the screen just goes blank and I have to do a reset to get it to start the process again.
I have RSD but I have never used it before. I have my phone plugged into my computer but my computer doesnt see it.
Help!

Whats your razr. Its verizon? If not you should use bootstrap.
Safestrap is for verizon razr. But some uses bootstrap on it.
You have to put ur razr in ap fastboot mode: power+vol up+vol down in order to flash with rsd lite
Choose a stock rom to your razr and flash it. Make sure flash correct rom

Uninstall all motorola software, reinstall motocast 1.29 or newer then connect ur razr.
Use rsd lite 5.7 and make sure you got correct sbf file
You may have corrupted drivers.

Do I need to install anything else other than those 2 things? It still doesnt work.
Would having Samsung drivers effect anything? I have a Galaxy Nexus too.

Sometimes it brokes motorola drivers. Doing what I said should work.
Edit:
BTW what's the version you were and what's the version you're trying to flash?
Some versions cannot downgrade when the one you're trying to flash have a lower security.
I was running Gummy when everything went wrong. Loading safestrap is when I started having the current problems.
I uninstalled the Samsung drivers, and loaded both RSDLite 5.7 and the Moto driver you suggested and RSD will not see my phone in AP Fastboot, but it will when in BP SDF flash. Very confusing.
I will load the latest version of GB when I can get my computer to see my phone in AP Fastboot.
Now my computer is trying to install the flash MZ600 driver and error's out. I googled MZ600 and it says its a Xoom driver???

Yup. You've a driver problem, better unistall others devices you may have.
Or, do it in other pc, like a notebook.
So I finally got the drivers working and now RSD see's my phone when in AP Fastboot, but I get an error when flashing the file. This is the error I get.
"Failed flashing process. 22/23 flash "radio.img" -> Phone returned FAIL."
It was flashing for about 5 minutes before I got this error.

If I understand correctly you are no longer able to get to rsd mode (power and vol +) when booting correct? If so you are pretty much S.O.L. When you flashed the 2.3.4 sbf it tried to revert your locked bootloader back to 2.3.4 which is a no-no on a locked 2.3.5. Your best bet is to start coming up with a good excuse and take it back to sprint.
Truely need more info. I just a week ago did the same thing to an electrify. I at this time cant tell you the exact steps i took took fix it but it can be fixed. You are not completly screw as of yet and if you look around you will find all you need to fix this but it comes from different sources and some of the info was for different phones but worked on the photon which made it work on the electrify.
Like i said the given info is not enough to give you what you need to do and although the mopho and electrify are similar in almost every way there are a few things that differ.
I dont believe that your "S.O.L." because i just did the same thing and brought it back.
Open a command prompt as administrator and plug your phone into you computer and see if its recognized by fastboot or adb or rsd lite.
hoslayer13 was helping me with this issue and had a lot of info that helped. maybe he will chime in who knows.
More info!!!!!
After the phone says failed to boot 4 if you leave it at that screen for about a minute does it say "starting rsd mode" under failed to boot 4? If so your best bet would be to follow the steps here: (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798145) as long as you originally started with a Photon running 2.3.5. I you can flash via rsd, make sure you remove your sd and sim card. For some reason it seams to work better. Also plug the USB cable directly to the computer (no hubs, no usb extension cables) they can cause issues with rsd. I hope you've already resolved the issue and I'm giving you advice you don't need.
@ rhewins2268. That is exactly the reason I asked "If I understand correctly you are no longer able to get to rsd mode (power and vol +) when booting correct?" If he can boot to rsd then the link I provided is a fix. Which by the looks of it may be what he was trying to do in the first place considering the electrify sbf he mentions is the first step in bringing a Photon back to stock, or back from a soft brick. You are correct more info would be helpful, but by reading what he did it sounds like more than likely he was on 2.3.5 which is an unlock-able bootloader (for the time being) and trying to downgrade (SBF: 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_5-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US) on a locked 2.3.5 bootloader can and more than likely will perma brick the photon. If when booting he can not see the boot options, i.e. fastboot, android recovery, rsd mode etc. he's bricked. There is no way to flash anything if the device has no, or a corrupted bootloader to start those processes.
