So i had CM 9 on this photon for a while.
I wanted to revert to stock to use bluetooth, 4g, etc...
So i followed these directions:
Return to Stock/Relocking via FullSBF flash
Factory reset phone Menu/Settings/Privacy/Factory Data Reset DO NOT SKIP THIS STEP
Start RSD Lite on your computer
Reboot phone into RSD mode: VOL down/Power. Use VOL down to scroll though options til you see "RSD" then VOL up to enable.
Connect phone to computer.
From RSD Lite, flash 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_5-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf
*RSD lite has a known bug where it will give a "failed" error during the final "rebooting phone" phase. IGNORE THIS ERROR AND MANUALLY REBOOT PHONE
Close RSD Lite and disconnect phone.
Reboot phone
except i flashed a newer sbf called 1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-198_7-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf
and then RSD told me to manually reboot my phone so i unplugged it and rebooted manually holding power button
and now i get a Motorola logo that will pulse and then a Sprint Now splash screen and then it goes black and re-loops....
anyone have any ideas? im so nervous right now.... I can also get back into RSD mode by holding power and volume up and down....

okay so i fuxed wit it sum more, and held down the power button and VOL down button on boot, it suprisingly got my into android recovery and from there i was able to format wipe and wipe cache, then reboot again. phone was stuck in Sprint Now screen for longer than usual, however it did eventually boot to stock and contacted network and updated PRL, etc.

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
Alright I need some help here. I borked my Photon this afternoon and have been trying to fix it since then by trying various things to no avail.
Now when I press the power button to turn it on I get "failed to boot 1".
When I press Vol up + power I get "Failed to boot 1 with PwrReason: RWR_KEY_PRESS Starting Fastboot protocal support".
When pressing Vol down + power I get something on the screen for a split second then nothing.
I am able to use fastboot, but can't find anything to flash without failing after sending it to the device. by rebooting in fastboot RSD will see the device. I try to flash any of the stock sbf, and they too all fail when "switching device to BP pass through mode". I am thinking that fastboot is my only way to save the device. but need the proper files and sequence to install and get rolling again.
Well the Sprint store replaced my Photon. They could not bring it back to life. Lol
I tried to flash the 651.167.3370.XT910.Brasil.en.BR rom on my rogers razr and right away i got a flash failure. I tried again and it started but froze withing 10 sec of flashing and now im stuck in fastboot. I can get out of it by holding down the power and volume keys but it brings me to the fastbot menu. So I press boot normal and it boots up but any time I restart my phone, I have to do the same sequence again
Edit. It was because my bat was at only 70%

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.

It looks like your vol up button jammed. May be it is the reason for rsd mode during boot up (vol up + power = rsd mode, vol down + power = fastboot)
Check the volume buttons
