[Q] I'm an idiot, please help... - Motorola Droid RAZR

I've flashed an incorrect rom onto my phone (standard GSM RAZR, on T-Mobile uk) and I'm really confused about which fastboot files I need to flash to return it to factory default. Every so often I forget to charge it, and then I get the flashboot failure and it is astonishingly annoying to get it to power up and boot properly each time.

Is you battery charged? If not, you may need a factory cable. (you can do it)
You can fix your phone easily, so don't worry.
You have to flash an en.EU rom, just take a look here

Yeah, managed to figure out how to charge it with a standard USB cable and get it to a point where I can boot with pwr vol up & vol down and then select boot normally, but it takes all day, and I'd really rather not have to worry about letting it discharge.

Legend, Thank you

Hmm. Tried flashing this one - Branding: RETAIL en.EU
Market Segment: EuropeAustraliaEMEA
Version: 651.73.23
Android Version: 2.3.5
and all it gives me on RSDLite is "failed flashing process. failed flashing process. 1/11 flash cdt.bin "cdt.bin_signed" -> Phone returned FAIL.;phone connected". Am I using the wrong one, or what am I failing at?

Sorted, thanks boss

Shucks another bricked razr

Well I got myself into it this time. I have a Rogers Canada XT910 razr. I installed the Arctic rom and lost all my data connection, and all my apps and could not reload them from google play because it says they are already installed. So I did a wipe and reset and decided to try to use RSD to reflash the ics leak. The flash failed, and my phone is bricked. What's guy to do.
Thanks
John

That's the leak you need I guess.
There's just one Problem. You need an patched Boot. Img and the system signed of the necessary GB Rom.
I've not searched this Thread for an boot. Img. Maybe someone posted one.
I'm not sure, if you can flash the European Fastboot Files, to get an working RazR, till there's an solution for you.

Thanks man. I had already side loaded the leak that you had linked to so I was on ics before I tried the arctic. I will try tonight to install the European version. I'll let you know how it goes.
Well I am at my wits end.
I eventually got my phone to reboot back into the Arctic rom I loaded, but can't figure out how to update this rom or load another. I have tried with RSD to flash a different flashboot files, but they all fail. I have down loaded a few different custom roms and loaded them on my sd card and tried updating my phone from external storage through the Android system recovery utility but action is always aborted. I can't load any apps like rom manager, file manager, or anything for that matter. When I go to the play store and look at my apps it says i already have them all installed and can't load any. What can I do?
Well I can't seem to leave well enough well enough. tried a few more things and now the phone won't boot. It gets to the Motorola logo and turns off. So can I can get to fastboot and recovery or off. Brutally expensive paper weight.
Can help

I bricked my Rogers RAZR too and was able to fix it. It's a matter of finding the correct signed img and flashing it using the fastboot (when starting phone press power and hold volume up if I remember correctly). Will check what the name of the image is and get back to you. I flashed three or so different images before it would finally boot, then I was able to re-root it, install CWM and get back on my feet.:good:
The rom I loaded is European from here.

I have been bricked before and fixed the issue, but after loading this custom rom the flash I used the first time with RSD does not work. I appreciate any help and I am willing to try what ever. I did not impress my wife with this one.
flash this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1634223.html
then reboot....it will work
Thanks I will try it after I get home from work today.
[TUTORIAL]
1. Download the empty_radio.img
2. Turn off the Razr
3. Power On the Razr and select Fastboot Mode AP
4. Open the command prompt CMD
5. Go to the folder where the radio is empty
6. Make flash the radio with the following command and then type "fastboot reboot"
7. Rest assured I tested on my Razr this command does not erase the radio
8. This command will only restart the fastboot
9. Now then turn off the Razr holding vol - and power
10. Plug the Razr holding vol + vol - and power and have it start normally
11. Now restart the fastboot screen will not show more ...
This stuff is over my head. I don't know how to do steps 4,5,6. I don't know what to do in command prompt, I can't find the folder where the radio is empty, and I don't know how to flash the radio. I am totally lost.
Does any body have any other Ideas?
Have you tried fastboot with rsd lite?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda premium
Yes I have tried flashing several different XML files from different ROM's With RSD lite 5.7. The flash always fails. In RSD it says that my phone is connected, but it does not show my IMEI it just has N/A in that box. When I hook up my wife's phone which is totally stock it does show her IMEI. Could this be part of the problem?

[Q] HELP... MIUI ICS revert to STOCK get BRICKED.

Hi everyone here, i'm not trying to be noob here(if i am please forgive me), i search many many post, and no one with the same situation with me, so i had to ask here:crying:
I'm on Official MIUI 2.9.14 ICS build, and i wanna go back to stock ICS due to Lapdock compatibility. And this is the scenario.
I'm on Asia Retail 2.3.6 before that, flash follow MIUI Official guide, flash a EU Retail via RSD lite as following,
SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2-3_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml
then razr_4.04_europe_ota, then MIUI
so, back to what just happened, i try to go back to stock via RSD Lite again, since i flash a EU Retail before, and been told that it is impossible to back to GB, should back to ICS, then i assumed that i should flash back
SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-167_SPU-15-M2-3_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml,
so after decompressed, and flash, it got me back FLASH FAILURE.... YAY.... Fastboot Loop.... Phone LOCKED, Status 0
then i found the way to charge my battery, phewww. but..... i found one more thing, in RSD Lite, while i connect my phone in fastboot mode,
My phone is detected, status Conected, BUT.... in the above ESN, Technology, Software Version, Flex Version, DRM Version, Bootloader Version, Phone Type... ALL APPEARED as N/A
Now a charging RAZR, fastboot loop, i'm downloading Asia Retail 2.3.6, Downloading RAZR Utility(Seems like no use to me?)
Any suggestion what should i do?
RSD Lite, fastboot mode, flash Asia Retail 2.3.6?
or
RSD Lite, fastboot mode, flash Eternity Project Final ICS Eu Retail?
A very very thanks in advance, and please forgive my poor grammar.
Update : I found that i can go to original recovery (dunno what can do here), and on Boot mode selection(Volume UP+DOWN+Power), i can scroll down to BP HW Diag & Boot AP, then i can boot up my original MIUI, but it cant connect to pc using USB nor Charging on wall plug, USB not functioning, kinda weird, then i reboot again (Volume UP+DOWN+Power), this time enter BP Tools, yay... this boot up the MIUI too, but with functioning USB DATA+Charge... but everytime i reboot the RAZR, it ends up stuck at AP Fastboot Bootloop, i had to use the method (Volume UP+DOWN+Power) to boot up correctly, and if i do the (Volume UP+DOWN+Power), i wait for 10-15 secs, it will also automaticlly boot to MIUI with functioning USB.
Now what? LMAO..... what should i do? any expert here can tell me what to do? How to get back to stock ICS? using bootstrap recovery? using original recovery? using RSD Lite?
The same problem... Today...Any other fastboot file link maybe?
I flash with rsd: SPDREM_U_01.6.7.2-180_SPU-19-TA-11.2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA
Im in hungary, in europe.
Edit:
I install this via rsd lite:
http://www.eternityproject.eu/topic...-official-fastboot-package-for-motorola-razr/
Before this it is work all the time... But from miui now.... bootloop. :\
And no standard original recovery. It shows me an android and a "!" character. Any idea?
Edit2:
DONE!
I use this:
http://www.eternityproject.eu/topic/15-gsmcdma-eternityprojects-rsd-alternative-for-flashing/
And flash the same rom. when its finish, the phone's screen shows me that andoid and the "!" character... I push (random) volume buttons, and appears the stock recovery. Press Factory reset, then reboot and now i have a stock ics. Work.
Now i install the MagicICS. See what happens.

Bricked Atrix,

So I bought myself an Atrix last night, its completely mint. Except the phone is bricked.
I've done basic flashing on my Samsung Nexus i9250 and on other LG's and HTC's so I understand the surface level stuff.
Now, the Atrix powers on and hangs on the Motorola Logo says "UNLOCKED" in the top left corner, (I'm assuming bootloader is unlocked)
And I get a modem did not power up (0) shortly after it hangs for a while.
I've read on another thread that this is a hardware issue and it can't be fixed via flashing.
I'm hoping that's not entirely the case, the only thing I can do is boot into Android (no BP), and it restarts after a minute or so.
And I can boot into recovery, this phone has TWRP, which I did not put on, and am not used to.
Anyway I've been trying to revert to a stock rom, (assuming bell because I'm in canada) but I can't get my fastboot to go.
It just stays on "starting fastboot protocol" and RSDlite doesn't recognize it. (battery at full charge)
That is about the jist of it.
I'd like to see if a stock rom, recovery and radio image will get this guy up and going again.
Hopefully I can switch TWRP for CWM, or back to stock with fastboot and RSDlite, I don't totally know the process.
Thanks for any and all help in advance
I've got CWM now,
I think I maybe having a hardware issue.
Everytime I try to flash radio's through CWM or RSD, I get some sort of failure.
I can flash radio's through fastboot but it doesn't seem to help my situation.
Currently I'm flashing with RSD, first time around my device was an NS Flash Olympus and it failed at writing BP.
Now its an SE flash Olympus And I'm trying the same SBF.
It seems to fail when it switches to BP Pass through mode.
:/
Edit: In RSD everything is N/A
I can boot into Android on the no BP setting.
And flick threw a few menu's then the phone would die.
Baseband is unknown, I managed to get there in settings.
Anyone have any idea as to what is wrong here?
I'd like to know if I'm SOL so I can let the atrix gather some dust on the shelf.
Yep, it sounds like somwthing is messed up on the modem Hardware

My RAZR XT910 got soft bricked I guess, any help?

Hello there. Since I'm new here I'd like to say hello to everyone
Today I got my RAZR and wanted to play with it. It was already rooted and it had a 4.1.2 android for it, but I didn't liked it at all so I tried to install MIUI. After creating a new partition (1) i had installed miui, but after reboot phone died - Motorola logo appears and it reboots. I looked for some info in the internet and I found about installing new, clean rom via fastboot. I downloaded SPDREM_U_01.6.7.2-180_SPU-19-TA-11.6_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRICSRTCEE_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot archive and tried to install it with Eternity Project, but after rebooting system does not start and android with red triangle appears.
Right now I am stuck and I don't know what to do. Could you guys tell me what should I do? The phone is RAZR XT910 from European distribution. Also, my Phone is being recognized as Spyder S.
Thank's in advance
Maciek

When you see android with red triangle just press vol- and vol+ and find the option factory reset.
From your post I see that you flashed ICS Fastboot file,right?
Were you on ICS or JB before brick?

Well, as far as I remember it was JellyBean. I tried to flash it, but it didn't work at all. When I tried to flash the newest available soft for my RAZR it didn't want to flash (it was stopping at 1st step - when using RSD Lite, but when I used EPRJ flashing method, after reboot phone couldn't find any files copied to it's cache or something). Right now my battery is too low and I guess the only option is to make a factory cable, because it won't even charge.
And factory reset doesn't change anything: still the Motorola logo appears and then the phone turns off and sometimes reboots.
Is there any way I could install system via install update from sd card option? Or the only thing I can do is to try to install clean Android via RSD or EPRJ?

Okay. I downloaded the british retail soft, we'll see if it works. But will this soft have Polish language?
And the second thing: is there any way to charge the phone when in my situation? When I plug in the charger, white led only flashes for a while and then the bootloop starts - motorola logo appears and that is all. I have also tried the method with pressing vol + and - for 10 seconds and again, but this didn't work either. The only exit here is to make factory cable, right?

Right,with factory cable you can't charge the phone but you can flash fastboot file,that's what it's for.

It worked, thank God. Thanks for the advice, next time I'll be more careful with my RAZR
Greets!
But another problem suddenly appears - my battery won't charge over 40%. Tried turning it off, but it didn't work.
Edit: I have had 50%, now I have 60. It looks like it's going up and changes after 10%. We'll see if it manage to charge up 100% battery.
Edit2: Okay, it fully charged. Thank's again mate for tips

[Q] HELP / PROBLEM - Fastboot Loop and Error flashing with XT910

Hi all, so i´ts my first time here posting but I´ve been following this forums long ago and touching stuff with my phones.
Today (well today... i´m working on this since yesterday) I´ll need the help of the most veteran users since I can´t solve this on my own.
I Have an XT910 Razr Moto. Yesterday I charged it with it being off, but to my surprise when I powered it on, I got the Fastboot screen saying the device is locked. Here´s the complete error:
-----------
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
0A.74
eMMC Info: Size 16G
To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0
Battery Ok
Ok to Program
Connect USB Data cable.
-----------
So, after getting this, obviously I thought, well, power off, or force power off, then power it on, and lets go... Well, nothing, I constantly get into Fastboot again.
What I figured out is that if I power it off, then hold vol down + vol up and power at the same time, I actually CAN get into boot menu but It will not let me select anything, it will just show it and boot in Safe Mode for me.... Tried factory reset also, so i could backup everything...
After going through all that I decided to give it a try and go for RSD with stock firmwares from sbf.droid-developers.org. I got like 4 and they all stucked at cdt.bin flashing part... Giving me an error about 6/18 process that can´t flash cdt.
So far I´ve tried LOTS LOTS of stuff like some .zip going around there to fix the CDT, with no luck...
THen I ran into this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1651596
Which was very usefull to have some progress, like completing the flash by erasing some lines in the xml about the cdt. system (cause it hung a lot there and gave error again)...
However, the error still persists, I boot up my damn phone and it goes into AP Fastboot. When i go into Safe Mode I see that everything has been wiped so its like a factory phone now, but still in safe and powering it off won´t make the difference.
I´m kinda desperate and about to throw this phone out of the window. Is there any pro savior out there who can give me more tips?
Thanks!!!!!!!!!

What fastboot files did you tried to flash?Were you on ICS or JB before the brick?Where are you from?
Error 6 means that you are trying to flash wrong firmware,for example,you was on JB and now you want to flash ICS.
Here are JB Fastboot files http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231289,just flash one for your region.

Thanks!!!!!!!! a lot

Ok so I have made quite a progress here. I was able to get a Brazilian version which is from LATAM and RSD flashed straight like a charm. Now I have the clean new firmware.
And even I can read in the fastboot 0A.77 instead of 0A.74 version
HOWEVER: problem with the Fastboot still persists. Even the phone itself when it restarts goes into Fastboot and when I´m able to make a boot menu I can´t choose anything and it goes directly to Safe Mode.
Now that the system´s """""fixed"""" and I could flash it.... Any tips on taking this off? I cant start the phone in normal mode :S
