Bricked stock MoPho. One day crashed and will no longer properly boot.
Cracked screen for a while now so warranty replacement not an option.
”Failed to boot 1” appears on M Dual Core screen on regular power attempt
“Failed to boot 1
PwrReason: PWR_KEY_PRESS
Starting Fastboot protocol support” appears on M Dual Core screen when hold Power and Volume Up
Screen briefly flashes and then goes black when hold Power and Volume Down
I have already attempted to flash stock Photon sbf file. Failed message after 99%
I have also attempted to flash stock Electrify sbf. Failed message right after process started.
Tried to flash on both regular power on and also on Power and Volume Up
Using RSD lite on windows7 64 bit.
Any ideas?
What was your build number?
Which photon sbf flashed?
Which electrify sbf flashed?
We need informations.
bull the battery out of the phone. plug phone into the pc then put the battery back in the phone. the phone should boot to the m logo and say failed to boot 1 it wont say rsd mode but its in rsd mode if you open rsd lite on the pc you will see the phone.
Files used:
1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A_SUN_USC_16.7-16-release-keys-signed-USC-US.sbf
1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_MR-3-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf
I don’t know exactly what Photon software version was on phone when bricked.
Ok, this looks like you're on the same boat with me and you need to unlock your bootloader, nothing more. If you want to use 4g, than there is no other way, only upgrading to the world of 2.3.5 sv2 locked bootloaders. But I suggest you, don't do that.
Thanks anyways guys.....still looks like I'm stuck with a worthless piece of equipment.
I don't think so, but you need to read in tegra sbf thread in development section, did you try to unlock?
having same prob and cant figure out

I just tried unlocking the BL from my official AT&T gingerbread using this guide, I tried flashing the sbf file with RSD and it got stuck and now my phone stays at this with the difference that mine gives me the option to try fastboot, RSD mode, Android Recover and another pletora of options I'm not sure i want to name.
So being able to try RSD again, i tried flashing this and it was appearently working but when it tried to set the device on BP Pass through mode, the device would go back to the Infamous screen and it wouldn't move from there.
Am I screwed? Do i have option?
I'm going to try to flash the stock FW to see what happens

use the automatic unlock tool found here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182871&highlight=automatic
do option 1 then option 3 (only use option 3 if on gingerbread) and you're good to go
Fastboot then use fastboot oem unlock command on PC. Reboot and it should work.

I forgot to mention that my phone seems to be low on battery. Does it charge if it's not on the OS?
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. Everything started well, then it failed while writing to the device. Now, when I attempt to boot, I get the similar message of
SVF:405;1:2
Failed to boot 0x1000
With a 14 available options. 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.
Did I just kill my phone?
I haven't still fixed mine because of the battery, I still have to find an external charger. Though, you can try the link from above.
Ok, I did the steps and now my phone is at a screen with the motorola logo with the dual core name on it and it has the word Unlocked on top of it.
What should i do?
the boot screen with motorola logo and unlock in corner will take awhile to load usually like 10 minutes but if it doesnt load for example i let mine sit for an hour and never loaded i just took the batter o and restart it and it rebooted and worked but use that as a last resort give it some time!
Omg i just fixed it!! Thx for the help!!

i think if the phone can be detected by PC, it should be a soft brick.. it is unfortunate my phone is booting loop and can not be read by PC, you're better than me..
Hello, I have a customer's Photon that is bricked beyond the grave. The story is this guy was trying to complete a software update and since then his phone bricked itself. I asked him if the phone was rooted and if he was flashing roms ect (I don't care obviously) and he repeatidly said no. So here is the deal, I would really appreciate any help.
Currently the phone can boot into fastboot mode with vol up+power.
If I hold JUST power I get
SVF: 108: 1: 2
Failed to boot 3
Starting RSD mode (never gets to starting RSD Protocol)
Now I can at least get RSD Lite to recognize the phone and begin the flashing with the SBF file ( I have tried them all btw) and the creating image process will get to 100% and then will fail at the re-enumeration process. This is with all SBF files from 154 to the latest 198_7.
I have tried multiple versions of RSD Lite, Reinstalled 64bit drivers and rebooted my PC, and have tried different USB ports. With everything I do the farthest I can go is to the re-enumeration process and RSD Lite Fails every time. I cannot even get into Stock recovery to perform a factory wipe either. The only key combos that work for me are Power only, or vol up + power. When I get into fastboot mode there is no option for anything like getting to recovery. And pressing power only gets me into a semi-working RSD mode.
I am completely stumped, I have successfully used RSD Lite in the past with no problems on multiple Motorola phones but cannot get this Photon to flash any SBF File. Please help!
This is what happens when you flash an Electrify ROM onto a Photon. There is no current solution, because you need a 2.3.5 ROM to fix it...and the only one is of course the US Cellular ROM.
Hi.please help me about idea: I Can flash file SBF (photon original) with model Electrify? I flashed but " Fail" That's why?

So i followed those steps.. but now i'm getting "failed to boot 4 starting rsd mode" error and can no longer access the fastboot menu via power +volume down. am i screwed?
Maybe I got lucky, but I used the Electrify SBF, received the same error, and the phone still worked. The initial boot up when you flash the Electrify SBF is looooong, but will boot properly. Give it some time.
I just did this last night.

Yeah I figured it out. It took 6.5 hours since prior to this problem I had zero android knowledge as far as custom roms, flashing, rooting etc. I got my first android three weeks ago and when this happened I had to learn all this **** in about 5 hours. It was a stressful day.
my thread was later updated on Jul 29 with pointer to the following thread by peetr_

Hello everyone.
I own Motorola Atrix 4g AT&T with 2.3.4 / 4.5.91 Build.
I have read every single thread about Unlocking the bootloader yet I still cannot do it.
First I tried directly the fastboot unlock command for unlocking it but I had an error saying that OEM Unlock is not implemented. Thats OK since the stock bootloader isnt unlockable. So I downloaded RSD Lite as well as the two SBF files (the small pudding and the huge pudding (full version) of AT&T unlockable/pre root) Here is where I got stuck! I have the drivers properly installed and I tried both Windows7 and WindowsXP still i cant get past the boot logo. Here is the situation.
I connect the Phone in RSD Mode. In RSD Lite it shows as NS Flash Olympus and stays connected. When I load the SBF file and press start it gets to 100%. Then phone reboots and RSD Lites says that its waiting for phone to re-enumeration and after a while it gets the error message: Phone[0000]: Phone did not re-enumerate after RAM-downloader was sent.. Phone is still stuck on the Moto Logo untill I remove the battery. If I remove the battery Phone starts.
Am I missing something?
As far as I remember, once you flash pudding the phone will indeed seem unusable. Immediately after flashing pudding you need to go into fastboot and run the oem unlock commands, then you need to flash a custom recovery, then boot into recovery and flash a custom ROM. You miss any of these steps and the phone will very likely not boot.

The problem is that i cannot flash pudding since I get an error message after the extracting process when the phone is suppose to reboot and flash itself. It just reboots and stays with Motorola logo (RSD Lites gives me the error) and phone freezes untill I remove battery. After that when I power on the phone it just loads normally.
So the problem is that I cannot flash pudding.... simply because phone dosnt reenumerate after reboot....
Bump ...
I want to add that the phone dosnt have backlight in boot menus (ak. background light is turned off but i can still see the options in boot menus)
Also I am not able to install OTA Updates I get a triangle on the screen and phone boots into os with failed to update message.
Else phone is fully functional. I havnet done anything except rooting the phone and doing the tethering and webtop over hdmi hack.

Try this automated tool. There are several options to choose from.
Download tool here.
I just recently joined the rooting community a few days ago. I started by rooting my phone with petes rooting tool, and then sbf'd the phone back to android 2.3.4 before installing boot strap recovery on the phone. I was able to successfully flash the cyanogen 10 mod, with many exceptions. The first of these exceptions is that the phones keyboard did not work at all (unable to active phone, unable to do anything really), so I decided to look this up. I tried almost everything except installing a new gapps which I was in the process of doing when I hit a major roadblock. The problem I ran into was that when I re-installed the bootstrap recovery on the cyanogen 10 rom to get to the recovery mode in order to flash the gapps file, the phone became stuck on the M (dual core) boot screen. I was however able to access the boot menu (power+volume down), and tried to sbf the phone back to android 2.3.4 so that it would hopefully fix all of my stupidity. Little did I know that this would just increase my unluckiness with the rooting process, and the phone now will not boot into the boot screen. When I hold down (volume down+power) the phone simply flahes a screen and then will do nothing until I pop the battery out. After that, i tried simply turing the hone on by holding down just the power button, and it boot to a screen which displays "failed to boot 2" and then below that "starting RSD mode". From this screen I have tried to sbf to android 2.3.4, and also to android 2.3.5 multiple times, and every time it pops up with either an error on the computer, or "sec_exception: febe, 4e, 4e" and then an error on the computer. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! I AM OUT OF OPTIONS AT THIS POINT, AND AM STARTING TO PANIC! HELP ME!
Failed to boot, sounds like hardware failure
but you can try ezSBF, link in my list, might work.

im not completely sure why you sbf'd after rooting the first time? no need for that. i would read up a bit more if you do get it working, watch tomsgt123 's videos on youtube so you know what youre doing. and you used the Gapps for cm10.1 not our version. that is why keyboard didnt work. read read read.
after reading abain, i guess you were on 2.3.5. and thats why you sbf'd. but rooting was not needed before sbf. hope you have better luck next time .
flash will fail if battery is too low, should be a low battery error though, but maybe not every time.
if it is low battery, you will need a charged battery or a tbh programing adapter
link to TBH adapter and dx2 external charger in my list

Do you have any advice on where I should go from here then? My phone is basically a useless hunk of technology until i can get it to boot back into cyanogen 10, or sbf it back to an android operating system. The RSD mode always fails when I try to normally sfd, but i have not tried EZ sbf yet..... any other suggestions?

With it powered off, hold power and volume up . See if you can get it into rsd mode . If so, sbf from there . Hope it works .

I can get into RSD mode, and the phone seems to SBF okay, until the SBF on the computer displays "failed", and the phone displays an error message. I am also using a fully charged battery during the whole process (my friend has the same phone so i swap batteries out with him to charge).

try ezSBF
if you can't get it to work, you can go back, try using rsd lite, and look for Driver issues
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
