Any answers
I had to get a successful flash of a full rom before my phone would stop going into that mode on boot up.
On stock I had to use Matt's 1.6 Utility to flash .181 and I was good to go.
If you just need to get out then press the power button to power down then you can three button to menu and boot normally.

I scanned looking for this specific issue. COuldnt find it.
I rooted, flashed to eugenes 2.2 froyo
Tried Rom Manager and fcw. However everytime I rebooted into recovery mode it would come up saying replacing rocvery mode with clockwors, restart (with samsung logo) and bring me back to Stock recovery mode..
Well, got tired... so...
Assigned myself a password lock to log into my phone and forgot it. (I have children)
To resolve me locking myself out of my machine...
I re-entered download mode. Flashed back to stock. Now I can enter Download mode, but not recovery mode to re-root, as going stock got rid of superuser, etc...
SO how do I get back into recovery mode.
nevermind.
I used thismethod and resolved the problem. Thanks
Recovery Mode:
With the phone powered off
UnPlug the USB cable.
Turn the phone on it’s side and use both thumbs to hold (left thumb) Vol Up and (right thumb) Vol Down
Press and hold the power button with your right index finger til you see "Virbant" release the power button and it should be on the recovery screen.
So, I soft bricked my Rogers Motorola Razr when RSD Lite failed to flash a rom. I got into the "Flash Failure" screen. The phone wouldn't boot up as normal and after turning it off, it would turn right back onto that Flash Failure screen again. I was able to get out of this by pressing both volume keys and the power button simultaneously, where a menu would come up with a reboot option. I had to repeat the process again because it went back to the Fastboot screen.
Anyways, whenever I turn off the phone and turn it on again, I have to do the whole process again to boot normally. Is there any way to get back to the normal boot process again?
Also, could this be a method for soft bricked users to get out of the Fastboot screen? Some how I doubt it since it seems too simple. I probs just got lucky...
Thanks
i have a vibrant that now shows vibrant screen then cyanogen screen then some files running and then agfain the same process.
i am afraid . it was a new phone how to recover i was flashing the ics passion.
and when i keep pressing thr volume less and power key it just flashes vibrant on screen.
Bootloop!!!!!
Directly from the NB's ICS OP
NOTE: If you get in boot loop during first install, DONT panic.
Remove battery. Hold Vol Down + Home + Power Key. You will enter new recovery mode. Flash the ROM again.
Some users (having Froyo Bootloader) need to press Vol Up Key instead of Home Key to get in Recovery.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
should i press the keys after removing and putting the battery again?
Try a few combos. You ultimately want to get back into recovery mode to reflash.
what are the comboos please help me '
Combos to get into recovery:
1. Gingerbread Boot loader: Vol Down + Home + Power Key (That's what neo's OP says) or Volume Down + Power Button (Elsewhere I've heard that combo, so try both. Can't test myself because I have Froyo Boot loader and running MIUI)
2. Froyo Boot loader: Both Volume Keys + Power Button
Ultimately you can enter download mode and use Odin to flash to stock. You can enter download mode using Power+Vol.Up

or as soon as the loop shuts off screen and is about to start again ( black screen followed by vibrant) quickly press up and down volume and hook usb cable up...( you can be already pressing up and down) works like a charm for me....have fallen into that boot loop thing once to many times....but theres always time for once more lol...
My Phone is stuck in a bootloop after installing the artic rom...its still looping and won't turn of.
I installed the thing where after you install a rom you boot into recovery but the rom skipped it even tho i installed the zip after i flashed the rom aswell..
I managed to get into AP Fastboot flash mode but i don't know how to flash my phone back to stock...can someone please help??
You can turn off the phone by pressing simultaneously
power and volume down (-) buttons about 5 secs.
Then yuo can think about what i can to do next ;-)

My phone is in boot loop right now and when I hit power and vol down, my phone with continually vibrate for about 5 seconds and then the screen goes out... but then it just boots up again
You can try push volume down button (and keep it pressed down)
at the same moment that screen goes out, maybe you can reach
AP Fastboot-mode in this way?
Well I can get to the menu for AP Fastboot
But im at work.. i dont have the file or RSDLight here at work.
But I can get to the recovery and it gives me the option for "factory reset" or "apply update from SDcard".
If I have a backup from bootstrap, can I use that file under the "apply update from SDcard" option?
EDIT: No you cant apply from SD (a recovery)
I think that yuo can't use backup from bootstrap via Motorolas recovery...
Maybe only way is install correct OFFICIAL Motorola ROM via AP fastboot.

Here is also good RSD alternative for flashing:

you close but it goes against what he just said. Once ur device powers.of press the volume keys then hold the power button ...it'll put u in recovery. You then need to scroll down twice I think to fast boot and press the up key to select....
You can only go down in this recovery. When you press up it selects. You will then need to follow a.vid on YouTube called how to restore Droid RAZR

I update my droid razr XT912 to the leaked JB update from ICS. After I did that I accuired root for it and installed safestrap 3.11 and made a back up. I messed up my stock rom so I tried to restore the back up of the stock jb. It didn't work so I started too look on how to restore it back to stock since almost nothing worked. You can't revert back to ics and you can't RSD flash back to it since there is no Jelly bean SBF file. So I found a way to get it back.
I have to thank the people for providing the software on these forms.
If you can get on to the AP FASTBOOT screen then it's possible to flash back to jelly bean. even if you can't get it to the boot animation. as long you can get to AP FASTBOOT.
What you need.
Droid RAZR Utility 1.82 (use google to find, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links.)
The jellybean leaked file save it onto the phone sd card
Install drivers that comes with Droid Razr Utility 1.82
Instructions
Make sure your phone is completely off. if not push and hold the POWER, VOL UP, VOL DOWN at the same time. You should be in a screen called Boot Mode Selection Menu. When you are in the screen use the VOL DOWN to highlight the AP FASTBOOT, Press VOL UP to enter that mode.
Once you are in that mode, Open Droid Razr Utility 1.82 and click on the icon that says DroidRAZRUtility and let it load. When you get to a DOS like screen with yellow words that says(PRESS ANY KEY TO CONTINUE...) at the bottom, Press any key. Now that your phone is still in AP FASTBOOT connect your phone to your pc via usb.
You will have a screen that has a list, you should see on the top
1 Fastboot Restore 6.16.211 <ICS 4.0.4 Official OTA Software>
Press 1 and press enter and follow the instructions on the utility. You should get one error after the system install. But it should continue to the end. It will boot to the M screen and then an ANDROID updating, After it is done it will boot back to the M screen and then a complete black screen. since your on the JB Kernel it won't boot the ICS.
Press and hold POWER, VOL UP, VOL DOWN the screen should flicker and press it press and hold again, it should go back to the Boot Menu, Use you VOL DOWN to hughlight RECOVERY and VOL UP to enter that menu.
You should come to a screen with an Android on his back with a triangle. Press VOL UP and VOL DOWN at the same time until you get to another screen that says (Android system recovery)
Use the VOL DOWN and highlight the (apply update from external storage) and push the POWER button to enter another screen.
Use VOL DOWN to highlight the JB LEAKED FILE that you downloaded and press POWER button.
It should do a VERIFICATION and then starting install the update. After its done it should reboot or you would have to reboot it. Then it should boot normal in working condition.
If you have any problems just ask. And I will try to help as much as possible. And thank you for reading this.
