I just joined xda a few days ago and I'm a NOOB at this. I switched from an HTC TBolt and I'm still learning how Motorola does things. I rooted my RAZR MAXX with the batman utility by mattlgroff about a month ago and used Titanium Backup to freeze/uninstall some bloatware. Little did I know at the time that the OTA does a system check before applying the update to check to see if the system crAPPS are still there. I would like to reset my phone back to factory, fresh out of the box with the batman utility but can't find the correct driver for the Fastboot CDMA_Spyder S. I choose option "1. Restore Droid RAZR to 6.12.173" and follow the instructions and get it into AP Fastboot Mode but I'm missing the appropriate drivers. It stays at the waiting for device stage.
I've searched around and tried to find them but I'm not exactly sure what I'm looking for. If anyone could pass on a link or thread where the drivers can be found, I'd be most appreciative.

Here: put into AP Fastboot mode by holding the volume up + down + power. Then select the AP Fastboot option.
I think that's what you wanted, not a stupid link! I am here to help you anyway I can not to redirect you and imply that you need to search harder to find something. Just saying....

Thanks the drivers were what I needed as well.
Just for anyone looking for what the device manager should be showing, it should come up as "Mot Single ADB Interface". The normal Android ADB Interface wouldn't interact with RSD Lite.
If it says Device failed to start just unplug and replug your device.

Ok, so after scanning through the SBF thread and a few others and finding instructions all over the place, I decided to bring them all together in one post. Sorry if I don’t mention everybody that contributed these instructions by name but there were a lot of instructions on how to flash the SBF to our phone. You know who you are and I personally thank you and believe everybody else does also.
To begin, download the necessary files and drivers:
Froyo 2.2.2 SBF File
Gingerbread 2.3.3 SBF File
Gingerbread 2.3.4 SBF File
RSD Lite 5.3.1 and Drivers
RSD Lite 5.4.4
1. Reboot your computer and your phone after downloading and installing everything and before you go to flash the SBF file. Use 7-zip to extract the SBF file...
2. Once you have rebooted your computer, go ahead and start RSD Lite and point it at the SBF file and plug your USB cable into your computer ONLY!
3. Turn your phone off.
4. Turn the phone on by pressing and holding the POWER AND VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see FASTBOOT. Press volume down until you reach RSD and press volume up once.
5. Plug your phone into your computer and wait until you see it in RSD Lite and click Start.
6. Your phone will reboot when the process is complete. DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR PHONE FROM UNTIL THE COMPUTER UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE.
7. If the phone boot loops pull the battery and boot into the stock recovery by pressing and holding power and volume down until the phone says FASTBOOT, once the phone says FASTBOOT, press volume down until you see ANDROID RECOVERY, once you see ANDROID RECOVERY, press BOTH the volume up and the volume down buttons. You will see the familiar triangle with the exclamation point and the Android. At this point press volume up and down simultaneously again and select “wipe data/factory data reset” by pressing the power button.
8. Reboot your phone and you should be back to full factory default, like new out of the box.
If you have any other problem with RSD Lite, try running it as administrator in Win 7/Vista...
Thank you, very helpful and thanks to everyone involved. Let's get this ball Rollin baby!

That is actually a great question Slowz3r.... I would love to know how to open that SBF, but I really have no clue... I will try and see if maybe I can open it in Linux. If anybody around here has any ideas or has already tried this, please let me know...
TIA
I have followed this guide to the letter, even to the point of redownloading both the SBF and the drivers a few times. Even after a reboot, when I plug my phone into the computer it says "Unable to retrieve initialization values from INI file"
I've tried it every day for the past 3 and to no avail, always same issue.
Edit: I did a clean uninstall and reinstall of everything, rebooted, and it worked. So I suppose it was an installation error of sorts.
Anyone else notice that to the right under platform it says 4G Tegra? Some also stated that their computer detected a 4G Modem when the phone was in a certain mode.

Yes, I have also seen this in the options before you get to rsd mode... Don't know what that means or why its labelled that way but it is definitely interesting... It would be great to find out what motorola might have to say about this and if that may be why we have been waiting so long for an update!!! I highly doubt it tho, but still nice to think about...

This happened to me also, i found out after two hours of forum searching, that you need 5.3 rsd lite, the one in the download worked for me, but maybe its your operating system, i had to use my xp computer because it would not work on my Win. 7 machine. Hope this helps.

It should work with Win 7 as that is what I am running... The link I have posted for rsd lite is 5.3... Maybe if you run rsd lite as admin??? I didn't have to but that might be a solution....
It Works!!
This is the first Sbf download that worked for me, i noticed that this one was over 700 mb in size. All the other ones were 482 mb. I guess those were just the partial Sbf. Thanks for this, i really needed it!
I had to do a factory reset of my phone the other day. I used RSD5.3.1 and the 482 mb SBF.
I bootlooped initially on the reboot but after doing a battery pull and then going into recovery, everything worked. I did get a couple settings wrong on setting up the phone but fortunately, there is a Verizon store very close by.
All the bloatware that TB had backed up up prior to me uninstalling came back. After the reload, I re-rooted but haven't uninstalled or frozen anything yet.

Actually the sbf included here is also 482 mb... Maybe the other downloads got corrupted?? However, I'm just glad it worked for you!

New Links I Just Uploaded Yesterday.
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x2-hacks/156070-sbf-file-rsd-lite-drivers-instructions.html
ok, just sbf'd my phone... hooked up rebooted blah blah blah... now im ****ting my pants... rsd says Results Fail and in the status says Disconnected.... idk why... all i know is that it was up for like the first phase... rebooted and says switchin ti BP mode... did that... then rebooted at 99% and then this.....
Phone is stuck on Moto Dual Core screen... and doing nothing... some please tell me i didnt mess this up.
Edit: Ok, i rebooted did the recovery thing and data wiped, got it working and now configuring the phone.. sorry for this post, was jus scared i guess >.<
Before some of you gets upset with me posting the same kind of question, please know that I looked at the forum everywhere plus some other forums and tried almost everything. Here's the summary.
I recently got Droid Razr Asia version and I upgraded to EU Retail rom n rooted it.
There was one problem that I noticed that only bluetooth was not working.
Checked online, and found out that it's the radio mismatch b/w EU and Asia version.
So I downloaded RAZRX rom and was trying to flash it again with bootstrap.
So the process started and in 10 seconds it failed.
So I tried to search other forums ...
at some place i found that ... after Hard Resetting, clearing catche; I am also supposed to format the system.
So I followed the whole procedure, and turns out that again it does not get FLASHED. So I downloaded the ASIA version again and tried to format. It did not work. I tried with EU version, it did not work.
So after getting tired, I tried with RSDLite to flash through PC.
That's when I found out that ...
It detects the phone ... but the phone has no EMEI, software version or any other details. Everything is n/a.
Still I tried, and it said "fastboot installation failed" or somethin like that.
And now my phone is stuck on red motorola logo.
I tried to power off and go to bootloader fastboot ...
and it says "Fastboot Locked ... Press power button to power down."
I tried with the DroidRazrUtility1.4 also ...
But it does not detect the phone.
I tried other few things I found online. But nothing worked.
I also drained the battery by keeping it aside to see if the fastboot gets unlocked, but it didn't work.
However, I haven't removed the battery yet. Cause I do not have the tools.
Please can somebody tell me step by step approach how to do this?
Because I haven't found out where I am going wrong in the given methods. and btw, I have followed everything exactly step by step.
Really appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you very much.
Try to flash with RSD Alternative

But will it still work if my AP FATBOOT mode says that "Device is Locked"
And the battery is on low?

Probably not. I read on one of the forums there might be a way around the battery being low. I think it was here in xda. Do a search for fast boot install or battery, something like that. If you find that doesn't work you would have to make the tbh cable which allows power to the phone without a battery, or in your case a near dead battery.
Sent from my Droid Razr using Tapatalk
"Device is locked" is natural, (almost) all of our bootloaders are locked. Nothing to do with flashing official ROMs.
You'll need to make a factory cable if the battery is low, search the development forum for a guide.

Here is where u can find full 2.3.6 Asian fastboot file, so you can use rsd for flashing 2.3.6 but for flashing 2.3.5 you have to use Alternative rsd because of bl version

Tried out both these sets of instructions:
http://androidadvices.com/root-motorola-atrix-4g-45141-gingerbread-236-firmware/2/
http://www.androidauthority.com/atrix-4g-android-2-3-6-firmware-4-5-141-root-63533/
None of them since I can't even get past step one with the command lines. The command prompt won't recognize either saying "[name] is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program, or batch file.
When I rooted while I was using 2.3.4, I had no issues doing it manually this way. I'm at my wits end. Don't know if it's a problem on my end or just the result of Motorola intentionally trying to make it hard to root and unlock this phone(apparently rooting also voids the warranty with them).
http://www.android-advice.com/2012/root-the-motorola-atrix-4g-running-4-5-141/
Thanks. Those are the same instructions in the first link though. Anyways. I managed to get past the first step by simply going to the folder and holding down shift and right clicking to get the command prompt to open the file from that location. Don't know why it wouldn't work the other way. After that I entered
moto-fastboot.exe flash preinstall preinstall.img

Now it's just stuck saying < waiting for device > which could mean it's a problem with the drivers. I did install the usb drivers from here:
http://www.motorola.com/Support/US-...tware_and_Drivers/USB-and-PC-Charging-Drivers
Don't know if there's a step I'm missing from that or if I have to do something manually form there since I went into the device manager and my computer couldn't detect anything for them so I assume they're up to date. Let me know if you if you need me to be more specific about something.

Did you try just fastboot instead of moto-fastboot? I had to use fastboot the other day and that held me up. But if its waiting for devices then it possibly is a driver issue. Im on the xda app so going to the link you provided wont work for me. Trying uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers.
Yeah I just did fastboot. Didn't even know if there was a moto-fastboot. How do I uninstall the drivers? I went through my applications but couldn't find them on my computer.

Go to device management of the computer and under usb should be your phone (when plugged in). If you aren't seeing it, then the drivers didn't install correctly. I can't remember where I got my drivers from to point you in the direction for that.
Alright thanks so far. It says the drivers aren't installed when I look them up in the manager. Don't know what I'm doing wrong, but if you could post the link when you get the chance then that would be helpful.
Just to clarify the one I'm referring to is "Motorola ADB Interface". "MB860" has everything current on it.

I got my phone rooted again and now that I know that works I'll probably go ahead and try unlocking my bootloader to install cm7
My droid x2 freezes on the dual core start up screen every time i try to turn it on, i pulled the battery out the first time this happened, and I've already went into recovery mode and did the (wipe data/factory reset) option, and i also wiped my cache partition, but still my phone freezes on boot. my phone started doing this when i was using "mcTweaker" and a notification popped up and it said i need to reboot, but as the same time i hit reboot system in the options menu. when i did this the phone cut off and since then it always freezes on the dual core screen when i start it up. i am also still on the stock rom and am rooted. any help or tips on how to fix this is highly appreciated.
if you can still can get to recovery, and have a backup, restore it
as you have wiped data, that is unlikely, unless you flashed re-recovery
sbf is your last option

Ok my bad, i feel lyk such a noob... i just wasnt waiting long enough for the starting RSD protocol support thing. Problem solved
great, just don't flash wrong sbf
Droid x2 and Milestone x2 have different sbfs, because they are different devices, different radios
ok for some reason it stays on the (Starting RSD Protocol Support) screen and never advances onto anything else D: is there a fix for this or is my completely screwed. i thought since the thread i read said it takes 3-5 minutes to start it up thats what my problem was, but i was wrong, the thing just simply wont start up... sorry for false assumption
yes that's it "Starting RSD Protocol Support"
is all is does, till you start rsd lite, doesn't change till half way through sbf or more
Ok thank you sooo much, this was frustrating me since last friday and i think the rsd lite i had was the problem, i went and downloaded a different one and now its working ... once again thanks for your help, ill get back to ya if i mess anything else up haha

now when i try to do it it says (error switching phone to BP Pass through mode) idk what to do or why its doing this
its a driver issue
a couple of options
use the moto drivers program
or ezSBF for x2, no drivers needed
both in my list of stuff
sd_shadow's list of links for Droid FAQs, SBF, Rooting, ROMs.... https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Goawxdx_UBF4Y8lqzHYWf8Ha3yUcRK4faq0UWIlXLWA/edit
also the fix for the d2 was
" Note: Under certain circumstances (especially when using Windows Vista and Windows 7) there might be a problem with not all device drivers being installed correctly. In such case, the flashing process will abort, and your phone won't be able to boot normally. RSDLite shows the following error message:
Error switching phone to BP Pass through mode
To get around this issue, once you get a Device driver could not be installed message from Windows, don't close RSDLite nor power off the phone. Start Motorola Driver Installer once again, and let it finish. Then if RSDLite didn't timeout yet, head to Device Manager, find the Unknown device, and in its properties' Driver tab click Update driver…. It should now install normally. If RSDLite timed out and you got an error from it, just repeat the SBF process. The driver should now be present, and the flashing process will finish normally.
Once the flashing process is complete, RSDLite will tell you to “power the phone up manually”. In most cases you won't be able to do this straight as instructed: the phone will be bootlooping. Take the battery out, and then place it back in. Press the lock/power button: the phone should boot normally. Close RSDLite. Disregard the warning about flashing not being completed since your phone has already booted into Android.
In case you still get bootloops after pulling the battery, wipe data in Android Recovery. "

unlikely that verizon would fix, rooting voids warranty
they may replace, if you tell them you don't know what happened
if you bought insurance, that will cover it

I've looked at over 30 different posts on this site and other sites on this topic and tried several things, but nothing is working so I'm hoping someone can take this noob under their wing to try to walk me through restoring my Razr Maxx. Many of the posts I tried had broken links to files or other issues.
I rooted the phone but was unsuccessful in loading a bootloader. The phone goes to the "Encryption unsuccessful" screen on boot up. "Reset phone" does not work. I can get into AP Fastboot fine.
I installed the Google USB drivers and Moto drivers from the SDK. Downloaded and ran Motohelper.
Installed RSD Lite 5.7 but it does not recognize the phone, even when the phone is in Fastboot mode and plugged in via USB. The phone indicates "USB Connected" but RSD doesn't show the phone.
I downloaded VRZ_XT912_6.5.1-73_DHD-11_TA-3_1FF_02.xml.zip
I have no idea what to do now.
Please keep in mind, I'm a total noobie, so very explicit instructions would be a GREAT HELP! Links to other threads that don't really address my particular situation or that have old broken links will not really help.
Thanks!
John
Get into fastboot mode and use this utility: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...xt912-jellybean-windows-mac-linux-all-in-one/

OK, I thought I had the Moto drivers installed, but apparently I did not. I installed the Motorola Device Manager and now my phone shows up in RSD Lite, but when I tried to flash a rom, I got this message: "Please check input file. Either XML format is wrong or image files associated with it are missing." I tried 3 different ROMs that supposedly work with this phone and got the same error. Any ideas?

My XT912 Razr bricked a while ago and I fixed it thanks to this program!
Download it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192467
This utility will restore your Razr.
NOTE: If your battery on your phone is dead, then you need to purchase a Motorola factory cable off ebay. They're relatively cheap. So after you charge it with the factory cable, you can then run the program and follow the instructions.
Hope this helped. Happy 4th
