I have a Motorola Droid RAZR XT912. I was rooted on 4.1.2 and tried flashing a custom rom. Everything went good, when the phone rebooted the red Motorola logo came up, then it went to a black screen where it stayed. I have tried rebooting several times, same thing happens. I am also unable to access Fastboot. Any one have any idea how to fix this?
Hold both volume buttons and power until the screen turns off. Press and hold them again and you should get into the bootloader menu. Choose ap fastboot, and then connect to your computer and fxz. If you truly can't get into the bootloader menu, you are pretty much screwed. But if you can get to the moto logo you can almost always get to the bootloader menu.
I must not have had the right timing when I tried that before, but I just got in! Thank you!

This is my first post on XDA, so hello everyone! lol I think I've graduated from "noob" to eager learner, but this one has me stumped. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I have a Verizon cdma RAZR Maxx, rooted, running Eclipse v1.3 custom ROM, 2.3.6., and cwm/bootstrap. I'm wanting to check out the new ICS ROM, but I can't get back to stock! When I tried recovery it said no files found. I tried RSD lite and it said it failed. I've tried wiping cache and factory reset too and none of that helped. I'm not sure which direction to go now...any ideas?
try using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486718

I forgot to add that I also tried mattlgroff's utility and it kept saying that the system could not find the correct path...??????
are you sure you are in fastboot mode
fastboot mode
Yes. I powered down holding the power and vol+- buttons, released power, and waited til the black screen w/white letters came up. I vol- twice to AP Fastboot, the vol+ to select. Then plugged in the phone and waited until it said USB connected and started the utility. I selected option one and followed the instructions from there and it wouldn't work.
I have another razr maxx with a shattered screen that I have to send back to the insurance company. It's rooted but still running stock. Can I pull the system files from it and push them to my other razr?
I am desperate and have searched all over several forums to hopefully find someone else that has pulled this boner and had the same situation. I seem to be the only one ... LOL
I tried updating my Razr Maxx to Blur_Version.6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US (actually is 6.16.215). I got a stock 211 on my Razr using RSD. It booted into recovery afterwards and I just went ahead and tried plashing 215 from the SD card. All seemed to be going well, phone rebooted afterwards and showed it was "Optimizing Apps". I walked off to do something and when I came back my Razr had a black screen. I tried to turn it on, No Go. I tried the Reboot (Vol - plus Power buttons), No Go. I tried to boot into recovery (power and both Vol buttons). No GO
The facts as I know them. I did not unroot before trying to flash 215. When I plug the charger in, I get the LED in the upper left for a moment and then it goes out. I have charged the phone for 7 hours and then tried all the boot up options (regular, soft reboot, Recovery). Nothing seems to work to turn my phone on so I can retry everything via RSD or whatever I need to do.
I know this is long, but I really need your help .... From all you guru's ...
Thanks in advance. I am at work so I may not be able to reply right away. Thanks again.

Hi,
Yesterday I did the upgrade in my Razr to JellyBean 4.1.2 using the BMM.
Everything was OK, but at night, I did the biggest mistake: I installed CWM !!!
Yes... I was really stupid.
Now the mobile didnt work. after the boot (with Motorola red logo), the screen goes black and nothing happens.
I´ve tried everything that I found on the internet, without sucess.
I really appreciate if someone could help me to unbrick my razr.
Thanks

Do you have the Verizon RAZR? There are fast boot files available now for rsd lite or use matt's newest utility to sbf

Press hold all 3 buttons to reboot for 10+ seconds. Let go then immediately press hold both volume buttons again. You'll see a boot menu screen. Choose AP fastboot, then run Matt's utility to get back to stock and start over.
Sliced in with my Razr Maxx....
When I click power + volume keys (-, +, and both) nothing happens, 10 seconds later motorola logo appears for 2 seconds and then shuts down again.
Can you give more info?
1. Is your battery charged
2. Did you tried to flash stock roms with RSD, if you did, tell which xml you tried to install.

1. Was charged 80-90% when it bricked. I cant see how many battery is remaining but if i see the moto logo, something have to have.
2. I need the bootloader before trying that. The RSD doesn't detect my phone.
Hi all,
I have Motorola XT621 Primus, after some playings with it and trying to root and add RTL patching i got a brick.
Now the status is that i have fastboot mode working but bootloader is locked, no recovery working and no ADB working, no boot too.
I tryed many ways to flash or unlock bootloader but nothing works. Any commands like fstboot oem got output like (...)
Is there any way to unlock bootloader via fastboot and flash new rom or it completely bricked?
Thanks!

Ok first hold the two volume buttons then push and release the power button. Then click on bp tools and see if the logo comes and than goes to the battery thing. Or try to just go into the same place and say normal boot. If all else fails do a fast boot. and use the droid razr root utility to restore back to stock. Let me know if any of this helps or you have questions.

Try this exactly to get into fastboot mode...
Power off phone
Press and hold volume down and power button
When the screen flickers release only the power button.
If you can get into fastboot you can use Matt's DROID utility to flash OEM Jellybean Rom onto it in an attempt to resurrect.

No need, i had the warranty and they fixed it, also changed battery and the cover for the MS/SIM. I was lucky.
Hi everyone,
I am writing in order to find a helping hint to rescue my Motorola Razr XT910...
I was just trying to install another ROM via BMM, wiped everything, tried to reboot to BMM again because I inserted a SD card...
Now it does not reboot anymore and does not show the BMM boot animation!
It shows the regular, red Motorola logo, and then nothing.. black..
What did I do wrong, or what can I do to revive it??? Is there any windows one click installer/tool/recovery program??
I have been using BMM for a while now and this never happened... I installed many roms but now it seems as if it is broken.
I would be so happy to get some hints. I haven't found some similar posts for this problem.

there isn't a script tool for the xt910 because there are too many firmwares. The motorola logo means your bootloader is there, the black screen after means there isn't a ROM for it to boot up. It is curious that BMM hijack isn't showing up though. Have you taken the sd card out and tried booting it up again?
Anyways make sure you can get into stock recovery, if so, find the correct firmware for your xt910 (it is region specific.)
reinstall it with RSD lite(make sure you have plenty of battery.) Reroot, Reinstall BMM and restore your backup.

Thanks for your quick reply!
Right now I cannot get into ANY menu or something, I can press any button I want. After the "logo" it stays black. The phone also might not even be able to be connected to my computer. At least Microsoft Windows doesn't even show a new device when I connect it via USB, regardless if I have the correct drivers...
I dont know what to do... RSD didnt help me either. It wont find the phone...

Well, whenever you turn on your Razr, there is an initial red Motorola Logo. After that you usually touch the screen to boot into BMM (in case the green boot loader appears).
BUT... (of course I tried the VOL+ Vol- und Power button move) after rebooting it only shows the red Motorola Logo and then nothing but black.

I know there is a logo when you turn on the phone normally but you should turn it off and then turn it on with those three buttons,it must boot into recovery...

How long are you holding them down.. it can take a good twenty-thirty seconds sometimes. Mine is also finicky if I don't press them all down at the exact same time, it wont let me in then either.
If your getting the boot logo it is just really hard to believe you dont have stock recovery... can the device charge? If you hook it to a computer do you get the white led?
While it is Flashing M LOGO.... just keep the VOLUME DOWN AND POWER KEY Pressed...till it Flashes and Shutsdown....and immediately let go the Buttons and Immediately Again press Both the buttons... VOL DOWN+POWER Key
when you get to the FASTBOOT mode
you can follow this video

Now I am facing an issue that's really annoying. I can get into recovery (AP Fastboot) if the phone is connected to a power source. As soon as I unplug it, the screen turns black! When I connect the phone to my computer, the LED goes white and I cannot access AP Fastboot....
When no cable is connected to the phone I cannot access any recovery mode.
What is wrong here? Even if I connect the phone to the power source only, it shows the red Motorola logo all the time. It seems as if I cannot turn it off. Is there also a trick how to really turn it off and let the phone charge??
