[Q] Is my RAZR MAXX hard bricked? - Motorola Droid RAZR

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.

Can't get phone in to RSD

Hello all,
I know this is likely in the wrong place, but I can't post in the dev forum. I was attempting to SBF my phone to 2.3.4 to update to 2.3.5. I have used the exact same RSD and SBF file on this computer. Last time my battery died while SBFing and it became a big hassle. Regardless, I was able to finally get it done. I did it today and it failed at 9% and switched to BP Passthrough. I pulled the battery and tried to get it back in to RSD and try a different usb port. It will not bring up the fastboot/RSD menu. I hold down DN VOL and power and it just shows the Moto logo and then after maybe 20 seconds then flashes failed to boot4 and screen goes blank very quickly. I can not get it in to RSD to try again. My PC is Win7 x64, RSD 5.4.4, VRZ-MB870_4.5.1A-DTN-150-30_1FF_01.sbf.
Any suggestions?
I just seen yesterday someone posted a way to sbf with a cd instead of rsd lite. Maybe something you can try. Look here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1406186
Ok thanks I'll look into that. any idea where you saw it?
Try holding power and volume up
That is the direct way to get into rsd mode
I don't know why every one good through the hassle of power volume down and going through the choices when power and volume up starts rsd mode without having to press anything else

Good point Ash that is how i get to it volume up and power. I posted the link back in my first post. Good luck and let us know how it goes.
So will it say RSD or anything or will it just go into it without saying anything?

Phone off, volume up and power hold until you see rsd. Should say it. Once you see it you are good to go.

Did that and it never says RSD. just shows the logo. I had 95% bat when I started and I tried to RSD once. So that should not have drained it that much should it?
Worth a shot to try a full battery
Know anyone with an x,atrix,x2,etc...I or a desktop charger?
As I was on the phone with VZW it started and went to FTB4 and then said started RSD. So now it is taking the update so far from a different USB Port
have you tried opening rsd and hooking your phone up to it to see if it auto magically recognizes the device....lol might get lucky.
Either that or try the other method that has shown up recently
Well I got it to take the SBF, but it bootloops as expected and it wont let me boot into stock recovery to clear the cache. Should I reflash?

Just let it loop for a while
---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 PM ----------
And after like 15-20 mins pull battery and try to boot stock recovery
I don't know why but it now goes to Stock recovery and I'm going to delete cache and data about 50 times and hopefully it will work.
Thanks for all the suggestions and help.
Mods can you please erase this thread.
Somehow reflashing seemed to work. Thanks.
If this helps.
Charge the battery completely. Completely being part of the key.
Insert battery and boot holding power button and vol up key at the same time.
DO NOT release the keys if it does not attempt to boot into RSL quick mode. if the logo appears continue holding the keys till it loops like ash said, except continue to hold the keys thru at least two full boot loops.
On the last loop release the keys and depress the power button while removing the battery. Once the battery is out release the power key. It sounds crazy but it definately worked. Now reinsert the battery and but do not power on. Open and launc RSD on your pc. Connect cable. The connection of the cable will sometimes activate RSD. Power on phone using the quick RSD commands (Hold power button and vol up key.) And Walla!
I hope this helps. I had another person follow this exact same instructions and it worked for them as well.
When flashing fails in the middle of flashing due to power loss: Boot is whacked or corrupted. This usually works.

If u r having trouble sbf check out thread new way to sbf there is a link follow it u want have to worry about rsdlite anymore
OP....
Throw a solved in the title...
People aren't seeing ur problem is no longer an issue

Low Battery charge in Ap Fastboot Fix

Hey guys, I recently found an alternative way to fix the low battery problem when your in AP Fastboot and able to get it to charge without the soldering of usb cable or the factory cable. So for those who do not want to open up their razrs or pay 40 bucks for a cable use my method.
-Make sure you have the charging cable connected to the phone and the cable to an outlet not an computer.
-While in the ap fastboot screen with the low battery problem, just push & hold Vol - and Vol+ and power buttons at the same time for 10 seconds
-Then IMMEDIATELY press and hold Vol - and Vol+ for 10 seconds to get back to the boot menu.
-Then once in the boot menu go down the the one option that has the word tools on it which is the last one.
-If it does not do anything just press volume up or down and go back to the tools and click power (enter) again.
-Then you should be boot to the M logo.
-Then after a bit you will be presented to an battery icon charging your phone!
-After a good charge up to 50% or so download the program called
New Link
http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/2248-droid-razr-utility-16-contains-612181-fastboot-files/
-Download that program and make sure your phone is back in AP fastboot and your battery should say OK meaning you can now program again.
-From there run the Droid RAZR Utility you just download it and choose option 1 and let it do its thing.
-Once done you should have the original stock rom and if you had root you must re-root it.
-Please message back for any questions! I am happy to help because I know how frustrating this is!

As long as once it is plugged in and the screen comes up in the AP Fastboot it will work. Just hold power plues volume up and down then once that turns off immediatley press the volume up and down and it will boot you right to the boot menu. But just wondering what shows up for you if it is not the fastboot?
I can't get it to work, after I select BP Tools, it flashes the Motorola Logo and goes back to the AP Fastboot screen again. I don't think it works if you formatted \System.

exactly. for those that got cut off as the phone was in the process of flashing, i dont think it will boot to any phone charging icon because there's no software on the device. I've been trying for a week now

Definitely didn't work. When that m logo comes up, it disappears and the screen goes off. The charging icon does not show.
Sorry for the late reply but it is good to hear this method to work for jaredakelly . For those who are having problems did you have the phone charging in the wall outlet and not on a computer usb? The best steps is to choose the the tools option then just let the phone boot to the m logo then just leave it there on the wall outlet. Make sure you are using the Motorola usb cable that came with your phone and its usb adaptor that might make a difference.
I just tried this tut and it works as far as I can tell I am at the screen for battery charging but there is a big "?" in the center, the phone doesnt know what level its at lol..
I suggest you space out and make your original steps in bigger and bolder text for the specific buttons because I almost missed the power + vol down + vol up and was just pressing the volume buttons
This thread should be stickied!
Yeah sorry if my instructions were not to clear this is my first time posting anything like this on this site, but I am glad to hear it is working for you too. I don't even have this phone lol , it was my friend's and he had it stuck on the fastboot so I messed around with it and in the end this was the result.
yep
i think my battery is too low to attempt this i got it on 3 times and tried to fastboot restore but battery kept dying before completion so i guess im just screwed
no you should be fine because as long as the power cable is still plugged in it should work regardless of the low battery level. I did this on my friend's phone with 0% battery.

[Hint] Empty battery / flashing

Hey guys,
Just a small advice for those who didn't know.
If you want to flash another rom and you got a "battery low" in bootloader/ fastboot AP, don't be panic: make sure you've booted your device in fastboot mode. Then just press the power button shortly and the device will shut down completely. Now you can charge your device without any factory cable. You will also get the loading Stats displayed.
This works on bootloader version 0A.72 onwards

New Method?
spc_hicks09 From DroirRzr.com posted this. I'm trying it now, Will let you know how it goes.
Press and hold power and volume down until the screen flickers, release those buttons and quickly press all three side buttons (power, vol up and vol down). When the bootloader menu pops up, plug in the charger. Use the volume down button to scroll to the SBF option and use volume up to select it. Now press and hold the power button for about 3 seconds then release. This will automatically put your phone in the "powered down/charging" mode. Wait till the battery charges all the way then complete a fastboot. I just did this 3 days ago so I know it works.

[Q] Atrix bootloop problem

Hi there guys, first of all thank you all so much for the support here.
I have a problem with my atrix, i googled a lot before posting, but i still can't find a solution:
I have a atrix 4G, unlocked, was running successfully neutrino 2,8 version.
After 2 months of being (almost) fully functional, the phone crashed(i didn't do anything particular at that time, i think that i was browsing google maps) suddenly and now i have continuous boot loop, i get only the classic red dual core logo, with the "unlocked" notification over it, and then after 10-15 sec it reboots.
I try to open it with holding volume down, to enter recovery, nothing happens. It reboots again. The computer doesn't see it, in this case.
I reboot it with holding volume up, says "starting RSD protocol suppport", and pc sees it and i get the cling-clong sound of usb.
I would do the recovery using rsd, but i read that it is not for unlocked devices, is this so? What can i do in this case? Thanks a lot!!!

flasing a recovery is done via fastboot so you don't have to enter recovery but fastboot (hold power and volume down till it shows fastboot, then press up) .

hello i had this problem yesterday, it happens in neutrino rom to alot of people!
and btw i could not open recovery either
ill explain what i had to do
i had to use moto-fastboot and install a new recovery, basically your recovery is dead and your rom is unbootable
heres the steps
download the moto drivers and install
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1381183&d=1349549067
then download the motofastboot zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1381414&d=1349555102
and create a new folder in C: (computer) called Android and then drag the files from the moto zip into android
Then download a new recovery http://www.mediafire.com/?6ww8wrjrdqq9m97
place the recovery.img into the android folder
now you have all the files needed to reflash your new recovery and fix your phone the whole idea is to reinstall recovery so you can access it and wipe and install the rom fresh again
now you need to do these steps
1) Attach your phone to the PC via USB (use a port closest to the power supply)
2) Reboot phone while holding volume down until you see "fastboot"
3) Press volume up to initiate fastboot
4) On your PC click the Start menu, then in the search box type "cmd"
5) In the command prompt type the following commands (no quotes, hit enter after each command)
6a) "cd c:/android"
6b) "moto-fastboot devices"
your CMD promt should show something like this
C:\Users\Me>cd c:/android
c:\Android>fastboot devices
TA20703SX9 fastboot
c:\Android>
now if that has all worked type the following phrases
moto-fastboot erase recovery
moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-6.0.1.4-maguro.img
moto-fastboot reboot
now the phone should reboot, unplug the usb and pull battery out.
put battery back in and then try to boot into recovery like you normally would (power button + Vol Down)
and your new recovery should load!
from here you can wipe your whole system which i would reccomended as your current one is corrupt and install a new rom or reflash your current on onto a clean wipe. if you dont understand how to clean wipe do all of these steps, factory reset, clear cache, clean dalvik cache then go to mounts > storage and format data + format cache + format system
now install new rom and let it boot up, should bootloop a couple of times then start! if not unplug battery from phone and ask for further assitance

Thank you for your help, the problem is exactly here, i put on the usb, i power up the phone by pressing the volume down, and the phone does nothing,doesn't show the fastboot,and after 10-15 secs starts rebooting again. This is my problem!
The only response from my phone is when powering up, and pressing the volume up, it says "starting rsd protocol support"
Is there any case that my volume down is dead?

unplug usb
remove battery, then put battery back in make sure phone off (no green light)
then hold power button and vol down at the same time for a few seconds
Fastboot should appear in white writing then press up volume and it should say starting rsd protocal or something similiar
then plug in usb and follow the steps i have written above
i do exactly what you said, but doesn't show fastboot. from switched off, if i press volume up with power button, i see the message "starting rsd protocol support" .but no fastboot option!
Is there any chance that you can access adb after bootscreen? than you can use "adb reboot recovery" to get there...

When i start up phone, the only combination possible to stop restarting is by pressing power+vol up to show that with RSD. There is no other option then selectable. Power + volume down does not work, doesn't show anything, has anyone of you experienced this thing?
If the only working option you have is RSD, then I'm afraid you're stuck with having to flash a stock SBF. I hope you know/remember exactly what stock version you had installed before any modding or flashing, because the SBF has to match exactly. Choose wisely and read up as much as you can before flashing.
I have over a year now with custom roms, and i can't remember which version i had. Why do i have to find exactly the version that i had? The latest stock version won't work with rsd? It will make it hard brick?If i manage at least to recover the fastboot menus etc it would be great!
I will later also try to open it, to see if the side button "volume down" is not working,.
I have another question, in your moto atrix, if you press on startup power+vol up, are you also seeing the "starting RSD" etc option??

Yes, flashing a wrong SBF will most likely hardbrick your device.

Can't try right now, but as far as I know, yes, that is a standard way to enter RSD mode.
thank you, so, i know that at least my phone responds to some instructions.
Is there anyone else to suggest me to do anything else?
IN rsd mode, (other than flashing a stock random rom with chance of hardbricking,)the phone can be read by usb, can i do anything there?

Sadly no. The RSD mode can only ever be used to flash SBFs. That's it. Nothing less, nothing more.
I will now try to open it to see if vol down is not working well. If it does work, i will select a stock rom 1 year old and i will flash it using rsd, and whatever happens....:good:
I disassembled the phone, the button seems to operate fine(?).
I flashed with RSDlite the 2.3.6 version, the RSD stuck to waiting for phone to restart.
The phone restarted, the "unlocked" logo disappeared.
Starts normally, passes the red motorola logo, shows the graphic of AT&T, and after ~10sec starts restarting again. Bootloop again!
At boot, pressing power+vol up, i can still get the RSD support. Pressing power+vol down does nothing, I don't see any error messages, like the ones in hard brick.
What can i do now, any ideas please!!!
try this

Yesterday I had a hard time getting my phone into fastboot mode, after loading a bad SV kernel,it only wanted to start the RSD protocol mode. I eventually got into fastboot by plugging into the wall charger, then removing and installing the battery while holding the vol button. When fastboot appears, unplug the charger to allow sd access.
Thanks for the suggestion, i tried even this,it didn't work. The funny thing is that it shows the battery charging level full screen if i connect the charger, as it starts.
I noticed also that when i press vol down now, it takes longer to start and continue to the moving red logo, it stays for a while stable red,feels like it is thinking whether to start or not lol (if i don't press vol down, on the power up the red moto logo immediately starts the classic "waving" effects)
Anyone having any kind of suggestion?I guess you don't, right?

I guess I broke my XT910

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...

What logo?There is no logo in recovery...
Press vol-,vol+ and power button at the same time to get into recovery,select the option AP Fastboot and then you connect it via usb.

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

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??
