Oops sorry about the caps guys.
So i replaced the digitizer / lcd assembly on an xt912 and before screwing it all back together I wanted to test the lcd.
It's working fine, it's just stuck in M Motorola bootloop and it will go into ap fastboot mode stating PLEASE CONNECT USB etc. No other error...
I don't have the special cable,and keep in mind I don't have it fully assembled.
I do have another xt912 with the battery charged but has a bad lcd as well.
The phone In question - I have no idea if it booted before the lcd broke.
I can't get to recovery mode. Tried numerous times
wondering if I should just use the guts from the other xt912
Can i take out a charged battery from another razr to get this to boot?
Do you think I broke the motherboard?
Do you think this may be stuck in ap fastboot simply because the screws aren't back I yet?
I truly don't feel like downloading sdk kit all over again and flashing this etc etc.

If AP fastboot doesn't say low battery, then it's not a battery issue, and a fastboot cable is not needed.
But it's not uncommon that firmware needs to be flashed after a hardware repair.

Try Booting from AP fastboot to charging mode
If the Device will only boot to AP Fastboot and it says Battery Low
Connect the phone/Device ato a Wall Charger (not PC)
-In AP Fastboot Mode hold Volume down& power buttons at the same time for +10 seconds
- When screen goes black...release power button
-Then IMMEDIATELY press and hold Vol - and Vol+ to boot to Boot Menu.
- In Boot Menu scroll down with volume down to BP Tools, press volume up to select
- Device should boot to Charging Mode with battery icon
- Once battery is charged, try flashing in AP Fastboot again
This will only work if battery charging Firmware is still preset and not corrupted
If Motorola Device will not boot to Charging Mode, a Fastboot cable will be needed.

Hey Everyone,
I am having troubles with the exclamation point error. Odin locked up in the middle of a flash and now I can't reboot the phone. The restart doesn't work, and I can't get back into download mode. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hey, try (WITH THE PHONE PLUGGED IN) turning off the phone until you get to the charging battery screen (you ought to be able to accomplish this by pulling your battery, popping it back in and plugging your vibrant into your computer via the data cable until you see the charging battery icon) From here, press volume up and down, and power all at once (or try volume +, and power)...As soon as the screen turns black, release your power button. With a bit of luck, and the correct key combo, BAM download mode. ^^

Ya I had tried that, unfortunatly it seems all roads lead to the exclamation point. Even pulling the battery, plugging the phone in and holding -, + and -, or just + doesn't even take me to download
If ODIN still recognize the COM port then you can still try flashing. Which ODIN image are you using and did you try it with the PIT file? Try a different Odin image because yours might be corrupt. Also you should try with a different cable.
Here is a link to some Odin images: http://d-h.st/users/Big Dog KMc

If you are getting a "Phone.. ! ..Computer" image (seen above) when booting phone, yes, you are bricked but it is reversible! Just follow these steps...
Make sure you have ODIN OPEN with admin privileges!
1.) Take off your back cover, remove your sim & mirco sd card.
2.) Remove your battery.
Make sure you have the USB plugged into your PC but NOT your phone!
3.) Hold the volume buttons.
4.) Put the battery in.
5.) Put the USB in.
You don't necessarily need the download mode image to be present. As long as you are getting the COM ID to light up yellow in ODIN, just flash back to stock like normal.

Only to boot menu selection which includes recovery ap fastboot bp tools etc . really need help guys and the battery's dead cant get it to charge
you will need to flash stock firmware with RSD Lite
to charge battery try

Hello everyone,
I've used Mokee 4.4.4. Rom on my XT910. Then I decided to upgrade it Marshmellow 13. First I tried to install it via BMM then had error status 7. Then tried to set it up via Safestrap and I followed the instructions but install had been faild. Then restarted to device and surely no OP will run cause of wipe. I got error to install any OP as
HTML:
"E: failed to verify whole-file signature, E: Signature verification failed, Installation aborted"
via android system recovery 3e qe2/1. Now the device is wont work any OP and it doesn't turn off. Restart it self over and over.
Here my questions
1. How can I install and up to upgrade again to my device?
2. What does "qe2/1" means. I saw somewhere about root. But I was rooted. And if I need to root again. Which version root files need to be install? What will happen if I root it twice?
3. What will happen if I load to old files?
4. Is it about Kernel? Does any new kernel exist?
5. And what's your advices.
Guys I've less knowledgefor phone. Therefore I need your help. I need detailed explanation to unbrick it. Thanks again.
Regards.
UPDATE: Somehow now I can't reach recovery too. I've just reach AP fast boot menu (flash mode active but battery low, and doesn't charging). Can I send any of fastboot files or is there some file for my stiuation?
UPDATE 2: I've clockworkmod backup BTW. boot_3.0.8-g7198280 and cid_800EB95C-000600CC

Firstly thanks for answering
I was use Boot Menu Manager and backup cid via BMM. And then erase BMM and install safestrap on mokee 4.4.4.
phone is able to firmware flashing, at least its not warn at this stage. but I'm afraid to do that with low battery. Also thanks for charging trick but i've been tried that. It's not working for me.
PROBLEM SOLVED! I get factory cable and flash it
It's a bit of a strange problem, I'll start from the start.
I tried to update my Z2 with a new rom but I got stuck with my recovery saying that the rom was for a diffrent device (It incorrectly identified my device as a "Leo" instead of "Sirius")
I found a diffrent version of TWRP that suposedly fixed this issue but when I flashed it in fastboot all I got was a boot loop with the sony logo. It doesn't get to the point where the LED lights up and you press the volume button to get into recovery.
I tried to go back into fastboot mode/download mode to try and force it to boot into recovery that way, this is when my battery went flat and the real fun began.
When I try to charge it straight off a wall charger It would automatically boot up to the sony logo and get stuck in it's boot loop.
The problem is that this boot loop seems to drain the battery faster than I can charge it. After awhile the screen goes black with a red LED indicating a flat battery and as soon as it gets enough charge it'll try and boot again.
I can get it into download mode only if I let it charge for awhile and then go through the steps using the wall charger and not the PC, this obviously doesn't do me any good but at least it is possible to access this mode if I can get enough juice back in it.
Is there anyway of stopping it from trying to boot while I'm charging it?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I'm at a loss with what to try next.

Flash stock ftf with flashtools
Or flash a kernel that has built-in recovery (like elite kernel)
And flash an stock based rom to revive you phone then flash anything you want

I have attempted this but I can't get it to boot into download mode to flash a stock firmware without getting more of a charge in it.
I have ordered charging cable that connects to the magnetic dock connection and hopefully that will let me keep it charging while flashing.

First use Xperifirm from flashtool to download D6503_23.5.A.1.291_1281-9715_R4D.ftf

Let it download and then use the little "OFF" Button by the Sim card tray. It'll turn phone off completely. Then plug USB Cable into phone and hold Volume UP while plugging USB Cable into PC.
Then use Flashtool to flash the firmware you downloaded.
Is there a way to remove the HD from broken G5 to a working G5 and put it in another? (It won't turn on at all) I have some very important pics on one of my old G5's that will not turn on at all. I have 2 other G5's that work perfectly.
For HD you mean the internal memory? In that case, it should be unsoldered and soldered again on another G5, and SMD soldering requires specific tools and skills.
I think it would be easier, before trying the transplant, to track down the issue and see if the faulty G5 can be repaired.
Maybe you have already tried everything, but otherwise, have you tried to switch the chins and batteries between the faulty G5 and the other phones? If it doesn't work, you can then open the faulty device and post a picture of the board: sometimes it can be very easy to spot a broken fuse or resistor that can be much more simple to be replaced by a technician than a whole memory chip.

I did try 2 other batteries and the chins. It just keeps flashing the start screen.
I just tried it again and it turned on! But after 5 minutes of use, it crapped out again. It tries turning on but the start screen only goes on for about 30 seconds then goes black for 2 seconds and back to start screen for 30 seconds... SMH... I just want the pics out of it!!! It's garbage after that.
Before throwing it away: when you try to turn it on and then it shuts down, are you using a charged battery or are you charging it at the moment? The G5 requires a lot of power to turn on (and do any other operation that requires reading or writing the internal memory), and if the battery is not charged enough, or if you're using a 500mA USB port for charging, it will just try to turn on and then it will miserably fail.
Try charging the battery in one of the other G5s and then use it to boot the broken one. Or, if you have a custom recovery, to boot in recovery: it takes less time and energy than booting into Android. But do not attempt booting into recovery if you're not sure if you have a custom recovery: the default recovery just erases the whole internal memory.
I tried all that and nothing. It won't boot in recovery either.
Not even fastboot?

What is fastboot and what will it do?
Fastboot is an emergency method for booting the phone. You have to turn off the phone, keep the Vol- key pressed and then connect the USB cable to power. From there there's not a lot you can do, but if the bootloader is already unlocked (don't unlock it if it's locked, if you do that the internal will be erased) you can send TWRP to the phone and boot it without installing it in the recovery partition (the command should be something like fastboot boot "C:/location_of_twrp_on_pc/twrp.img"). You can also install TWRP with fastboot flash recovery "C:/location_of_twrp_on_pc/twrp.img", but still you need an unlocked bootloader.
If the bootloader is unlocked, this is what you should already see on boot, right after the LG logo:

I just tried it again this morning and it turned on but only for a few minutes. It felt like it was a little warm on the back of the phone when it shut down. I could not find the pics in that time.
Next time I get it going, I will try uninstalling all apps possible and see what happens.
