I have never bricked it before, and I cannot go into download mode... I tried the the Vol up and vol down, didn't work, so I have been using ADB and just ****ed something up....
Now I need to know a way how I can revert back to stock, please and thank you, I will forever owe you one.
EDIT: Okay there is some confusion, to simplify it I will take it step by step:
I replaced an APK file from my system/apps and ever since it has been force closing process.android.acore, so I tried reflashing to stock, it froze while doing so now I have a picture of a caution sign, a phone and a computer coming up on my Vibrant, it will not start up.
It is hardware locked because I have never been able to access download mode via hardware keys(I have always been using ADB).
Is there any way I can reinstall stock? Or is my vibrant now destroyed?
what exactly were you doing when your phone stopped working? "just ****ed something up" makes it hard to pinpoint problems...
I don't know I replaced my phone.apk with another one then ever since then it keeps saying process.android.acore has stopped working. It wouldn't stop showing up so I tried to reflash with Odin to stock but it froze and now it is bricked.
bumping a little bit, I have never bricked it before so I have 0 experience.
What do you mean by froze? On what screen? How far can you get into booting?

Alright let me start over with more detail:
I tried to replace the dialer so I replaced the phone.apk and then process.android.acore kept force closing so then I tried reflashing with stock, during that I don't know what happened but I think my phone froze, so then it shut off and turned back on, I only found a screen with a computer on it... I am assuming it is bricked.... I also know it is hardware locked because I tried going into debug mode with vol up and vol down, how can I unbrick it?
Try moving the stock rom into the phones internal memory via adb. And flash it after a wipe.
I am Also having this same problem
I Flashed my Vibrant through Rom Manager to Froyo 2.2 from eugene373 and sombionix.
After flashing to both ROMS for Froyo I wanted to revert back to 2.1.
I tried to put sombionix 1.3 eclair ROM back on to my phone using clockwork mod.
The flash was not successful it stopped in the middle but the phone came on with a Force close error of an android process.
I tried to reboot through adb reboot recovery with usb debugging enabled.
The phone shut down like it would reboot into recovery mode and now it gets stuck on boot at the samsung vibrant screen.
I tried to use ODIN to flash back to the stock Rom but the phone is recognized in ODIN but will not flash.
ODIN sees the phone but will not get past flash analysis. (Sat for 8 Hours)
I believe this is the definition of bricked. Please Help!!!!!

Can you get the phone in download mode?
Did you try this:
Pull battery
hold the volume up and down
reinsert the battery whiles still holding down the volume up n down
plug in usb cord
it should put you back in to DL mode
Open ODIN and unplug phone from PC and plug back in hopefully it will notice it then.
I am not sure if you can get in DL mode and it just wont let you do anything, but if you have already tried this my apologies.

Did you even read the OP? He is HARDWARE LOCKED ie BUTTONS DON'T WORK geeze people learn how to read!
And on topic, if you can't ADB and you are Hardware Locked, you are SOL. Try to get an exchange from T-Mobile since it appears that they regard being Hardware Locked as a defect.

Remove the back cover & remove the battery along with your sim & micro SD
Hold the VOL Up & VOL Down
(Keep holding those buttons) Now insert the battery
Plug the usb into your phone.

Update is being pushed out slowly, but I figured out a way to forcibly do it in kies.
It simple. Do not plug in your phone while you are doing this.
First, make sure you update to the new version of kies. Then go to the menu bar> tools, then firmware upgrade and initialization.
Click until you get to the screen that asks you to input your S/N and Model name of your phone. Enter in these details. It's behind the battery.
Once you do this, a screen will pop up asking if you are sure you want to upgrade to CSC:LE5. AKA ice cream sandwich.
At this point, plug in your phone and it'll go through.
Your welcome.
EDIT: as of today, Monday June 25th 2012, at 11:00 AM, the update is officially available through KIES. If you don't see it now, a popup telling you to upgrade will appear by tomorrow.
EDIT 2: DO NOT UPDATE TO ICS. IT SUCKS. AND IT IS NOT NEARLY AS SMOOTH AS GINGERBREAD. If you hate android lag, the update will almost certianly piss you off. If you have questions about how its different, just ask. I already downgraded to gingerbread again. ICS = Not missed.
EDIT 3: (copy pasta from a post I made)
amaddux29 said:
Can you "downgrade" unrooted from Kies as easily as upgrading?
Click to expand...

No. I assumed that the update through kies updated the bootloaders, so I found a stock 2.3.4 one click odin executable W/ Bootloaders in the development section and flashed that. Make sure you factory reset and clear cache in 3e recovery before you do so. New bootloaders can't take advantage of the Jig. I also didn't want to find out what flashing gingerbread on ICS bootloaders would do my phone.
I find 2.3.6 has battery issues, and I find 2.3.4 to be THE most stable release.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20229527&postcount=46
The file you want from this page is the I777UCKH7-CL503881 Stock Binaries, and you want the odin3 one click download. It's one of the ones with the warning text in red.
To restore your phone to stock 2.3.4 once on ICS do the following:
1) Boot into 3e recovery (power + volume down + volume up)
-Wipe Cache
-Factory Restore
2) Pull battery
-boot into download mode (volume down + volume up, then connect phone to computer while buttons are simultaneously pressed)
3) Open the one click executable. Make sure it recognizes the phone
-It will say [COM8] or something. Just make sure its green.
4) Flash it. It will work. after you boot up into gingerbread, If the system freezes after the At&t logo just go back into 3e recovery and wipe cache + factory reset again. It will work. Trust me.
Note: ODIN is a very tricky piece of software. When you click flash, it will probably not work and say "failed" or something along those lines. Try it again. It will work. It took me almost 20 tries to get the flash to go through. Also try flashing it as soon as you plug in your phone (not even 2 seconds after it is recognized). That seems to work. Don't be worried if it never seems to go through.
Note: YOU ARE FLASHING BOOTLOADERS. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE BE CAREFUL. If ODIN DOES NOT WORK OR YOUR COMPUTER SHUTS OFF HALFWAY THOUGH, OR ODIN QUITS, NEVER PULL THE BATTERY FROM YOUR PHONE. As long as you see a downloading sign on your phone, your phone is ALWAYS recoverable. Just open up the odin executable again, make sure your phone is recognized, and restart the process. If odin freezes halfway through the process, always restart odin, NEVER touch your phone. Your phone can always be written to while in the download state. This is how 99% of all bricking happens, because people always feel the need to turn off their phone in the middle of the process.

Nice trick by the way op
Thanks for the trick. One question - how long did it take for you (or for anyone else who decided to use this method)? It's been stuck at the 90% value for about 2 hours for me, and I'm beginning to get a little worried, since these things don't normally take so long (according to friends I've asked, anyhoo). Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you talking about 90% fnished downloading/extracting? or 90% putting it on the phone (with the green bar going across the phone)?
If it hasn't started putting it on the phone yet you should be fine to unplug it and start over. If you remove cable while it's actually putting in on the phone, you will have problems. not sure which kind though. maybe just a soft brick. you should be able to get back to download mode though.

I apologize for not being specific - 90% putting it on the phone, I presume, since that green bar you mentioned is there (with the "Downloading..." underscored with a "Do not turn off target !!").
Assuming this is beyond the norm, do you think I have no choice but to risk the soft brick?
EDIT: Oops, it's actually a blue bar. My bad. So it's safe to disengage then?

Yeah, if it's been at that point for that long, you will have to risk it. do you have a jig? if you don't, invest in one. they are worth having around.

No, I don't...I'll be sure to purchase one as soon as possible.
As for the phone, I shut down my computer and unplugged it - received a "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" screen. At the moment, I'm looking around for a fix. This seems to be a soft brick, though, so I'm optimistic. If there is anything you could suggest for me, it'd be greatly appreciated.

see if this works: hold down both volume keys at the same time. then, while holding them, plug in your usb cable. hold the keys until you see a screen with green text. you will then hit the vol up key o get to download mode. then you could start the whole process over again through KIES.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but when I enter the imei into the s/n blank it tells me it's not a valid serial number. I've tried entering the actual s/n and I get a weird message in what looks like Chinese. Any other suggestions?

Yeah, the IMEI won't work anyway.
That weird message was coming up the day that Samsung said their servers would be down (yesterday). They may have figured out that people were getting the "recovery" firmware that way and disabled it. Who knows.
So any word if that method will work now?

So I have an LG Optimus L9 phone from T-Mobile that I recently got, but it wouldn't let me save apps to my SD card, which really limited my space. Id rooted my previous Android phone, and I thought I could do it again.
So I tried unlocking my bootloader and rooting my phone using this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277639
But I guess one thing led to another and... Well, now when I start my phone, it just leads to a screen that says Encrypting and a button that says "Reset phone", and every single time it resets to this "Encrypting" screen. Every once in a blue moon, I can get it into CWM recovery screen, but I don't know what to do. I've been trying out multiple things, but I'm on the verge of losing my mind! Can anyone help me? I'd really appreciate it!
*UPDATE*
Good news! I used the LG Mobile Support tool to update my phone to V20H by using the advice below!
BOOTLOOPS? STUCK AT LG LOGO? : Dont worry!!! If you were on CM and flashed JB or vice versa or your data partition is not matching with new partitions, then your phone may get BOOTLOOPS on LG Logo.
HARD-RESET to solve it (Press VolDown, Home and Power all together) You will loose data, dont worry, before starting you took BACKUP and I am sure about it. Phone should start normally. (Click for correct method of HARDRESET)

Keep following the tutorial if you still want to unlock bootloader. Otherwise jump to the 2nd part of it (step 5 and on), to flash back to P769 rom and then apply (flash) touchscreen fix.

Apprearently I had to flash my phone to V10G, root it, install the L9 recovery, and then follow the tutorial. I don't know how that slipped my mind, but I didn't try flashing it to V10G first.

1. I flashed my phone to V10G using cmahendra's tutorial here:

I am having similar problems to the one explained above...
Today my phone started giving me google service stopped working and calculator stopped working...so I restarted my phone. when it powered back up it got stuck on the LG Logo Screen...once in a while it will go to the encryption screen with the reset phone button and does nothing if I push it. I have tried to hard reset the phone by doing the Volume Down + Home Button + Power button all at the same time. When I push all three after removing the battery to make sure the phone is powered down, it just vibrates and powers up to the LG Logo screen again and sits there. I am really frustrated at this point and heart broken because I really like this phone. I have had the phone a little over a year now. So it is out of warranty. For some reason it is not getting seen when I connect it to my computer via USB cable. I do not understand all the conversation about re-rooting and such. I am not all that tech savvy, so I need simple instructions.

I tried the LG Mobile Support Tool....unfortunately because the phone is not booting up all the way, my computer is not being seen. I ended up going out and replacing the phone with another phone. This was the second time that something like this happened to that phone. The first time it automatically started an System Update without my input and I was not in a good coverage area and not hooked to a Wi-Fi at the time and then my battery dies midway through. This lead to the phone being stuck without the software fully downloaded. Had to send it to LG for a little over a week to completely wipe the phone and re-install the software. It was under warranty at that time. This time the warranty was out of date. I will still see if there is anything that they can do for it. I went with another LG, but bought the extended warranty through the store where I bought it, not making that mistake again.
Hi thejenibear, thanks for your feedback.
Cheers. Good luck.
I have an E970 which I have loved over the past 16 months. Love it. It's not rooted or modded in any way, but I had it set up real nice.
I was at the hospital emergency room yesterday visiting someone and had some time to kill, so I updated some apps that needed updating. I did this over LTE, not hospital WIFI. I mention this because of what happened next.
Last night I started getting an error message when I attempted to get into the settings: "unfortunately settings has stopped." Everything else looked normal at this point.
Of course, the first thing I did was reboot and there was no change.
So, I did a little research and the suggestion was:
1) something you installed or updated last messed it up, try uninstalling the updates.
2) try putting the phone into safe mode and see if it works.
So I uninstalled the apps I had updated while at the hospital. Swiftkey keyboard, Chrome, Dolphin, the MyAT&T app (never used), and some others. About 12 in all. No dice, settings was still not working.
So after another reboot, I put the phone into safe mode (which I didn't know existed on Android). It took a long time to reboot into safe mode, much longer than a normal reboot. Settings was still not working. Same errror. Thats when things got worse.
Rebooted back out of safe mode. It still took a long time to reboot. Now not only does settings not work, but now the notification area on the top of the screen is gone, the notiication shade is now gone, and long pressing home does not bring up task manager. I am able to get into the settings for the home screen and the lock screen via the menu key. I cannot access sound settings or wifi or anything else in settings. I also lost my wallpaper. The LG launcher was still working as was the LG lock screen. All else looks fine, my MMS, contacts, email, etc.
This morning, I tried rebooting again. Now the phone won't boot past the white AT&T logo after the animation and sound plays.
I tried removing the sim and the sd card. No change. No boot.
What the hell happened to my phone and what should I do?
At this point I realize I'm probably going to lose everything in my phone memory, and I'm at peace with that. I had my photos and media all on my SD card, but my contacts and my text messages from the last 16 months are going to be gone.
I am not versed in rooting or recovery, though I am actually very technical. I would appreciate any assistance anyone could give. Thank you.

Two option that I can think are a factory reset and restoring with a program named lgnpst.
Factory reset would be simplest if it works, but will definitely wipe your phone.
Using lgnpst usually doesn't wipe the phone. Let me know how you want to proceed.

First of all, thank you very much for replying!
LGNPST doesn't wipe the phone? Well, I'm all for that if it works. Boy, I thought for sure I was 100% going to lose everything. Now at least maybe there is a tiny chance of not losing everything.
I had joined the lg-optimus-g irc and user autoprime directed me to the guide there. I downloaded and installed tSilenzio's Automated LGNPST already. I was going to use it to flash the stock rom, but I didn't do that yet. Is that what you need me to do with LGNPST, flash the stock rom or does LGNPST have other options? Please let me know, I'll wait for your reply, sir!

I would use the stock firmware posted by g33k3r, it is a zip that contains a tot file which you rename to .bin for use with lgnpst. If afterwards you want to try custom ROMs we can go from there.

If you have an SD Card installed, try removing the SD card and then booting the phone.
If that works... then I bet you have a Samsung 128GB MicroSD card???? (if not, maybe another brand 128GB card?)
It seems that there is something in the 7.1.1 boot sequence for the Moto Z's that is hanging during the mount of the SD Card when it is a Samsung 128GB card. Removal of the SD allows a successful boot up.
Once boot up is complete, you should be able to insert the SD card (without rebooting the phone) and the phone will see the SD card and the "missing SD" notification will go away and the phone will function as it always has. It seems that unless Motorola/Lenovo release a patch for this issue, that your only options are 1) remove SD during every reboot, or 2) purchase a different SD card (Motorola seems to recommend SanDisk).
No there is no SD card. The phone is stuck on bootloader.
I had the same issue, stuck on bootloader and error saying recovery could not be read. I rebooted a few times and it eventually went away. Problem is that now my phone acts REALLY weird. And the Software Assistant does NOTHING to help out. It doesn't detect the phone in regular mode and in fastboot, it says everything is fine and doesn't let me restore.
I have a feeling the OTA had a problem installing and a clean slate is the only way to fix it. The only issue is that I can't find a copy of an XT1560-02 ROM anywhere, only other variants.
I had the same issue after update. Recovery could not be validated. I removed the SD card and boom perfect boot. I just hope the issue gets patched soon, would hate to have to carry that Lil key around for if I need a reboot to remove SD card before boot
Same issue. But instead of removing sd card. Just go into recovery mode and wipe cache.
Works
This helped me. If you can fastboot, this may solve your problem:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/how-to/how-to-update-to-official-7-1-1-moto-z-t3640298
you don't need to root or install TWRP if you don't want to.

I did it, but i couldn't.. nothing happend. Y tried to unlock BootLoader too, cause the first part try something with the BL, and then, when i was unlocking, my phone said: Check 'Allow OEM Unlock' in Android Settings > Developer... And off course i can't, if i have a softbrick....
Well, i lost my warranty now too.
If anyone could help, pls help us. If anyone know how to pass that step in BL, pls tell us...

Maybe you could provide more information. Have you been on Stock 7.1.1 and tried to unlock your bootloader without allowing Oem Unlocking in developer options? What is the current state of your device, means are you able to get into recovery mode?
7.1.1 Original Stock - Not Allowed OEM Unlocking
Everything was great, but a week ago the cellphone it restarted itself, and never back: It's stuck in bootloop.
I get it with Android 6.0, and i was upgrading via Ota until 1th July, which that means it's 7.1.1 Rom Stock
Cause i wanted have my cellphone pure, i didnt touch anything(I didn't want loose my warranty), so i'm never check to allow "oem unlocking"
Now, warranty doesn't help me because i bought it in Italia, and im living in Argentina now, and they said taht they have Local Warranty.
So, i tried to solved it by my self... I did it with my old phones but they were cheap, so i think is it that why i never have ear about Reset Software Factory Protection.
Brief:
Original Stock 7.1.1
Yes, i tried unlock BL without Allow OEM Unlocking
Yes, i can get in BootLoader and in fastboot without problem
Thank You very much
Maybe a factory reset might help. Switch off your phone. By holding the power button and the volume down button you get into bootloader mode. Tap volume up until you see recovery. Press power to confirm. (If you see the little green android, hold the power button for 2 sec and then press volume up) In the recovery menue select factory reset, if you choose with data wipe, be aware that you'll lose all your data. After that reboot your system. Hopefully it will boot up and you can set it up from scratch.
I did it.

2. Which version of stock rom did you download?
3. Download and install RSD-lite on your pc

Start RSD-lite on your pc.
Then put your device in bootloader mode and connect it to your pc. Does RSD-lite show, that your device is connected?

That's good. (Sorry for the late reply, it was late and i fell asleep).
As i understood you purchased the device in italy and now you live permantly in argentina. Where did you take the 7.1.1 OTA, in Italy or in Argentina?
With the help of RSD we could try to restore your firmware. Not sure if it works for you in Argentina.
1. Download the NPL25...RETBR stockfirmware from here on your pc https://mirrors.lolinet.com/firmware/moto/griffin/official/RETBR/
2. Extract the zip and search for this file: flashall.xml and remember where to find it.
3. Run RSD on your pc
4. Reinsert your simcard (not the sdcard). Put your moto z into bootloader mode and connect it with your pc. Wait until it gets recognized.
4. Click the three little dots in RSD (left beneath the start button). Now search the flashall.xml file and double click. It will be added to the command field.
5. Click start.
RSD should now flash the firmware onto your device. This takes about 10 minutes. Wait untill your moto reboots completely and you get a PASS notification in RSD.
Hope it works. If not, we have to try plan B.

There is still no RETEU 7.0 available, thats why you have to flash the RETBR.
Try again to flash the RETBR NPL25..firmware with RSD. If you'll get the same failed error message, here is
PLAN B:
Copy the flashall.xml file and rename it to flashallcopy.xml.
Open the copied file with a text editor and delete the 2 lines with "gpt" and "bootloader" in it. Save it and close the copy. With this the RSD program will skip those two commands. Click the 3 dots and add the flashallcopy.xml file to RSD. Click Start.
If that doesn't work, we have to run Plan C
Good luck
