Hi everybody... Today i tried to flash my german atrix, using sbf_flash and the OLYEM_U4_2.1.1 ROM...
The problem started in Ubuntu (11.04):
I can start the flash process, but after phone-reboot sbf_flash tells me that it can not access the usb-port. (does not matter if as user, sudo or as real root!)
OSX starts flashing until it breaks at the 6th or 7th upload...
Vista (the only Windows we have here) does not even recognize the phone, so RSD Lite cannot flash it...
At the moment i have a totally unusable phone with "Failed to boot 4. Starting RSD mode"...
Tryed nearly every howto that is given, but i cant even start fastboot-mode so thos howtos are completely unusable for me...
were you trying to downgrade when you first flashed the sbf in linux? because then you are hard bricked. :'( check stickies in atrix development
When attempting to SBF to upgrade to Cyanogen 10 A2 something went wrong.
Ive tried several versions of RSD Lite and several SBF Files.
Currently I am using RSD Lite 5.7 with the 2.3.4 SBF File
This is the error message on the phone
Download code Started...
rsd mode...
Partition Tables did not match: Backup PDS and repartion memory...
ERR: hardware/tegra/prebuild/make/../../core/system/rdl/rdl_main .c: 492 StartPartionConfigurion( 25 ): 3
When booting up i get the message Failed to boot 4 -
The phone then automaticlly starts up RSD mode
When holding the volume down or up key while powering on nothing happens... no fast boot and no recovery.
So any advise would be much appreciated. Ive found a few other posts that people have have similar issues but none exactly the same.
Im interested in any advice on which RSD lite version.. which SBF file... and anything else.
Until I get some help my next thing will be to try to SBF using linux.
And obviously Id like some help with repartioning the internal phone memory, it does the same thing whether the phone has the sd card in it or not.
This section is not made for questions just so you know. I'm just going to link you here:

Hello to all at the forum,
Can I use the EU retail OTA for the Droid Razr Maxx XT910 on a NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU phone using the following procedure: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849744 I cannot appear to find a suitable procedure like the link posted for my particular model of the Razr Maxx. My phone is currently a brick and I would like to rectify the situation as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance,
Jonathan.
here some hints to insta the 4.1.2 Jelly Beam on the razr
For flash a 4.1.2 you have to use rds lite 6.0
Also you need to install the usb drive otherways your razr will not connect perfectly
Start
Turn off (power botton and vol -)
Let it charge a little bit (half battery will be ok)
enter recovery mode (power vlo- vol+)
go in ap fastboot using vol - and power for confirm
decompress the file (called Rom) you want to flash (in a folder and rename as you like)
launch the rds (remember install mototrala driver)
search the folder where you extract the rom and double click on .xlm file
plug the phone in pc,wait few seconds (10)
click on start
wait
done

Hi, How did your phone brick?
Did you try to install the EU retail on NonEFIGSRetail version? If you had taken a backup of the files to your PC, you might find some unbricking solution in the forums.
Hello again,
Thankfully my problem is solved, thank you to everyone at xda developers and for replying to my thread lads. I would be lost without ye. My phone began a process of constantly rebooting after using google maps. I could not id the source of the problem but I attempted to reboot from an xml file on my sd card, however I rooted the phone previous to this and removed an app for DLNA linking, this resulted in the phone refusing to reboot the OS from the xml file and in the process I ended up bricking the phone. It reached the stage where I could only load the AP fastboot screen. To charge the phone I attempted suggestions throughout the phone to charge the phone without an OS however I decided to buy a factory cable and followed the guide that I linked previously.
To confirm, I am in Ireland but my razr maxx was non EU kernel. I now have an EU kernel and the phone is fully functional again. What a relief.
Anyways, peace out.
Jonathan.

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Boot Failure) after "successful" use of RAZR Utility
Hello XDA forums,
I have been a lurker here for several years and been quite amazed at the wealth of knowledge that is XDA forums. Unfortunately for me, I have run into an issue that I am unable to solve by searching for posts of similar unfortunate souls and can no longer remain a lurker, but must venture forth into the light to seek assistance.
About a year ago I used Matt's wonderful utility to save me from losing my Verizon XT912T RAZR MAXX to brickdom. After which I rooted and installed safestrap. Sometime after this, I somehow wound up getting an OTA that killed the root and made me unable to use TiBackup or get into safestrap. My phone was still working fine (minus root apps) and I was overly busy with work and being a new dad to take the time to try to correct the issue...until this past evening...
Begin problem:
I attempted to use Matt's Jellybean root utility to correct the issue (first using the #2 option), and all proceeded correctly (i.e. phone and computer connected fine and all upload/install processes finished "OKAY" according to the command window. The command window said the phone would reinstall radios and then fully reboot.
The reboot process began as indicated and the red Motorola symbol came up for a few seconds, but then I was dumped into AP Flashboot mode again with the following message:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Boot Failure)
0A.77
eMMC Info: Size 16G
To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down
Device is LOCKED, Status Code:0
Battery OK
OK to Program
Transfer Mode: USB Connected
Invalid CG OTV (CG: system): Invalid SP Data
Invalid CG HAB(CG: system, status: 0X0056)
Invalid CG OTV(CG: system)
Figuring that I would just have to suck it up and go with option 1 (data wipe), I went back into Matt's program and re-tried using option 1. Again, all uploads and writes showed "OKAY." The command window then stated that it was wiping cache, and user data and then told me the programming was complete and the phone would reinstall radios and then fully restart.
Again, I was dumped back into the same AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S) (Boot Failure).
I have tried this process several times and searched on this and other forums to try to find a resolution to this issue, but have been unsuccessful. PLEASE, IF ANYONE CAN HELP, I WOULD BE MOST GRATEFUL FOR ANY ASSISTANCE!
Phone info:
Verizon XT912T RAZR MAXX
Version 4.1.2
System Version 98.72.165.XT912.Verizon.en.US
---------- Post added at 02:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:46 AM ----------
The Utility I was referring to in the post was the DROID RAZR Utility Jellybean for Verizon XT912.
I have checked the checksum and it matches what is listed on Matt's page.
I have unzipped the download to a regular folder on my desktop and am not trying to run it directly from the .zip file.
I am NOT running it as administrator.
The program appears to be working correctly, but once done my phone doesn't take and jumps back into AP Fastboot.

I have the same problem and I opened up the back for charging through pin Method. [Stupidest Mistake Ever] I can't even claim the warranty now because I broke the small [SHenZen] store sticker (had bought it online).
The thing is, we need an UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER to flash these files brother. The Device is LOCKED, Status Code:0 message should be Device Unlocked Status code:3. And there is no way of getting that I think, there was one but it was has stopped.
Goodbye sweet phone...
Hey Huzaifa, thanks for the reply!
Yeah, I kind of figured the phone was hosed. Played with it some more and still couldn't get any response. I don't by any means claim to be an expert on android, but I do work as a network admin and I've gotten fairly decent at recognizing the severity of an issue so I can give estimates on how long something might take to remedy. This seemed like one of those, "Go directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200," types of situations. I'm guessing that it could probably be repaired by Motorola with a direct connect programming cable, but I doubt it will be worth the hassle. I was overdue for a new phone anyway, so I went ahead and got a note 4. Best phone I've ever had!!! Seriously, when considering new phones it usually takes me a couple weeks and I wind up having to make tradeoffs such as lower camera quality for better battery life. It took about a day of research and playing with phones and I could honestly not find a single drawback to the note 4 (aside from the price :^p). Insane camera battery life 2+ days w/ moderate use, super HD display, fast as heck, great reception in my area (which can be spotty at times). If you still need a replacement, that would be my recommendation.
Thanks man, the problem is it was my brother's phone. I was thinking of buying note 4 too... It'll probably go in my bucket list now...
Is this a Complete Stock ROM installation option?
Suppose I've just wiped my stock ROM partition of my phone and have installed a custom ROM on it, Will this utility still be able to flash the official JB rom on my phone?

saferoot is a little easier to root with.
Unfortunately I only have a linux OS to work with, this vid appears to be Win based.
I did try running the application via wine: almost worked.
ok.. i found the sh. and ran, same issue, then the script said to switch back to camera mode and this picked up the phone.
finally! thank you very much for assistance!
The SU application says I can only add a password by purchasing SU pro. Is there another way to add this password?
XT912 Stuck in Red Eye - Seeking Some Hand Holding
I am relatively novice relative to what makes our smart phones work, but I am fairly "coachable" and a quick study. I have an XT912 with Verizon that is stuck in red eye and goes no where. I am sure my phone operating system updated circa Nov 2013, but frankly, I am not clear as to the details of which version. It was running great as recently as 3 weeks ago, then started just rebooting repeatedly. I made some feeble and likely reckless attempts to do some of the reboot actions and other remedies related to the holding vol up & vol down button while holding power button. I was completely reckless in that. Now I am just stuck on the red eye. I can still get to that reboot screen that has the options to do Fastboot et al. So I am grateful / hopeful / lucky that it appears I have not bricked the phone.. I came across this thread and suspect it could help me get my phone back on line. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192467
Is there any guidance to use these utilities for the novice user? Maybe not quite smartphone reboots for dummies, but something dumbed down a bit for the more timid? I sure do appreciate any replies.

The bootloader maybe a bit mucked up, when you get black screen, does it connect to pc? Show up in Device Manager?
