[BRICKED] Droid Razr M - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello! Not sure how this happened. Last night, my girl turned off her Razr M phone and went to sleep. This morning, she tried to turn it on and it was stuck on the "Motorola" logo. After a while, it said that it failed to boot and gave an error. Sent me straight to AP Fastboot mode.
I started researching and somehow the phone is now bricked.
So, my research took me to download RSD Lite and I tried downloading various ROMs and stuff - I'm really new at doing this with Android so bare with me
The latest thing I tried is the PacMan ROM, but RSD Lite gives me the error: "Please check input file. Eithe rxml format is wrong or image files associated with it are missing."
I read somewhere that it's not necessary to use RSD Lite for ROMs, the thing is I can't access my SD card. I don't have a way of getting anything in or out of it. No other devices.
What can I do at this point? I am willing to try anything to get it working again.
Thanks so much for taking the time to read this

Open the xml inside the zip you're flashing and remove the line:
Code:
<step operation="flash" partition="partition" filename="gpt.bin" MD5="5B3FD782141145E4BD1C9270D954AFF1" />

Yeah modifying the xml file is necessary, but also make sure your phone is charged above 50 percent. Low battery causes some funky errors with RSD.
Also what version of android were you running? I'd try flashing the new stock KK with RSD to at least get it up and running....then worry about flashing a custom.
The good thing is if you're getting into fastboot, you're not hard bricked and it's salvageable with some work!

Is your boot loader unlocked?
Sent from my XT907 using XDA Free mobile app

Hi,
To answer all the questions:
1- Is your boot loader unlocked? No
2- I've modified the XML file and removed the lines I was advised to remove.
3- Not sure what exact version of Android the device was running, as it's not mine. Also, what is "stock KK"???
4- ezknives, I've read through the post and basically the guy removed lines from the XML file - did that, also uninstalled Moto stuff and installed Motocast. No joy.
Right now, RSD shows the error message "Failed flashing process. 1/16 flash sbl1 "sbl1.mbn" -> Phone returned FAIL."
I am using the 4.4.2 firmware found here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=8
Other ideas?

One more bit of info. The eBay seller reports the phone had "Android 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich" installed when she purchased it. Not sure if she updated it or not, but I don't think so. Does this new information change anything?
EDIT: I downloaded and tried out the 4.0.4 version from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=8 but it stops at the same steps, even after editing out the XML file.
Also tried the utility found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2207419&page=2 (the latest version).. seems that it does some work but the device still doesn't respond. Gets stuck at Android logo.. and I've tried RSD with all I have (4.0.4 and newwer) but no luck.

OK so.. somehow I managed to flash the stock 4.4.2 version after many tries - using RSD.. it now boots but only to a frozen "M" logo.. and keeps cycling back to it.. any ideas?

Hi, I was able to flash - or so it seems - 4.4.2 but it gets stuck in a loop (motorola logo, turns off, goes back).. unless i put it back in fastboot.
Will unlocking the bootloader help me? I am trying to get Motorola to give me the code/help me with this, as my device does not have USB debugging turned on. But before I continue "fighting" to get the code, I want to make sure i can use it for something. Can you advise me?
Thanks!!!

Re-flash 4.4.2 with RSD Lite one more time. I've read that running it (RSD Lite) twice will help to fix the bootloop issue. As far as unlocking your bootloader, Motorola will not give you a code if you do not own a developer model. You'll need to use Motopocalypse to unlock.

What phone D2 or D2 G and which SBF did you use?
I assume you used the 2.2.00 sbf when you needed the 2.3.20 SBF once you have the 2.3.20 update the bootloader is changed and won't accept the 2.2.0 sbf.
IF that's the case you need to try flashing it with the 2.3.20 SBF found HERE
Read the bottom of THIS post if you get a bootloop or stuck at the M logo screen.
it works!! Thank you so much!!

You probably flashed the wrong SBF. You need to find the latest DX SBF they should be found in the DX section of XDA. Off the top of my head I can't think of the latest release.

I have a similar problem. I just got this phone and dont know the history other than the ESN is clear with vzw. It goes str8 to the BL screen and has this...

Battery OK

Tranfer Mode: USB
I Dloaded RSD lite 4.7 an the 2.35 BL sbf as well as the orig 2.2 and 2.3 FW sbf's. RSD will communicate with the phone. I can reload the BL sbf if I open the sbf file but none of the FW sbf will load in RSD, the start button command stays grayed out. Also in RSD on line 1 of the phone status it shows connected but above that in the device properties box info for the meid/esn etc show N/A.
I can access the recovery menu and at the bottom there is an error report for accessing recovery cache in a folder path.
Can I put an update.zip on an sd card and try to revive this thing that way or maybe I am doing something wrong? I am guessing this is the result of some botched flash job.
I have done some modding on my Droid X such as backing it up, deodexing and put the Liberty ROM on it as well and changing ROMS on my android tablet so I have some of the basics down but after much searching & reading I am seeking help with this one. Thanks in advance!
Edit: Now my battery is dead, I have found in other threads that a blank software device wont charge the battery if this helps

Maybe try flashing in linux and make sure you have read up about flashing SBF's on a DX. I don't know which one to flash as this is the D2 section and I have a D2.

That would work if you can find an update.zip made by moto that will go through the bootloader. And it doesn't really matter how it got here but probably it is a bad flash or a wrong ROM. (You might try connecting it via wall charger (not USB) while it's powered down then turn it on and see if you can get into clockwork recovery.)

You need to find someone with a DX to swap/charge your battery with so you can get in and flash it or you need an external battery charger (one that will charge the battery outside of the phone).

Hi, thank you for the reply. I know I made comments about my DX I have as well but to be clear this is a Droid 2 I am working on. I will get the battery charged somehow and let you know what I come up with, thanks again

Oh. In that case you need the 2.3.20 SBF found here http://droid2files.com/tools/VRZ_A955_2.3.20_1FF_01.sbf after you can get the phone charged. (If it helps the D2 has the same size battery as the D1 so you can swap/charge a D2 battery with a D2 or a D1.)
Also try finding RSDLite 4.8 or 4.9 as they might work better for you. I'd give you a link but I Haven't flashed an SBF with RSDlite I just use linux.

Cool thank you again. I got the battery charging via a rig I have done before with other devices from a camera charger. My linux(zorin) machine lost keyboard function out of the clear blue I havent had a chance to sort it yet(another project lol) but I do have a live usb thumb drive setup to use for linux. I'll try on this windows machine for now.
I'll keep you posted as to the results
well I got the battery charged up. I still have this problem when I select either the 2.2 or 2.3 sbf files the start button for applying the flash stays grayed out as if the files are invalid. If I select a bootloader sbf the start button is ok and I can load the BL sbf. I tried switching to rsd 4.8 too. I will keep playing around with it and maybe try to get my linux pc going.
Ok well even tho I had a few copies of the sbf files I went ahead and dloaded the one you linked. It would load in the rsd app but when I hit start to apply I get.... "Failed Flashing Process (0x7100) and this happens right away

You might need to put the file in the C: drive of your windows box. At least that's what a another forum post found from a Google search suggested.
Or try linux Check here for more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=804088. It's an old version of Ubuntu and there are somethings I want to add to it, I'll be updating it as soon as I have some free time to put it together using the 10.10 version.
I found this link... http://androidforums.com/droid-all-...-failed-flashing-process-0x7100-rsd-lite.html check out post #32
It does make a difference where the file is located yes and I got the sbf to perform the flash but after a lengthy process looks like about 3 steps and it takes 3-5 min I end up with a fail messege. There is more info I could provide but its been a long Monday I need to give it a break and now the batt is low again.
Thank you all again for your much appreciated help. I will regroup tomorrow. I will try to log in on my phone to see any ideas I mite need to think over.

[Defy] Stuck at Bootloader 09.10 - Err:A5,69,4E,00,41

I think the title kinda explains for itself!
From what I started and where I got?
Well, firstly, I tried to install 3.4.3-11 Motorola SBF with fixed Blur provided this link:
"Here you are, buddy
Fixed.SBF plus Nandroid of 3.4.3-11
http://www.multiupload.com/PB10JC9NQV"
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537&page=7)
I moved to the older PC still running Windows XP to manage RSD Lite 4.9 to work and recognize my Defy. (it apparently worked)
After wiping all data and cache, I started the phone in boot loader mode and tried to use RSD to load the SBF.
Everything seemed to be fine. But.....After RSD finished the update, it said for me to "turn on my Device". Well, it was already on and stuck at Motorola Logo.
I waited for quite some time, took a shower, smoke a cigar.... And, when I came back, nothing, phone was still on moto logo.
I force restarted the phone removing the battery. Still got stuck at moto logo for quite some time.
Sooooo, I decided to wipe everything again and try to install the SBF again, this time with the one provided by "Pays Rom" thread.
That was when stuff got bad.
After that, I got stuck at Bootloader with a "error code" indication.
Alright, it was time to read some more cause I realized I fked something up! Then, I find out I could load a Devtree SBF and that would unbrick the phone being able to install another SBF.
No succecs, eventhoug I tried to load those previous SBF, I still got problems either with RSD Lite or got stuck at bootloader with a that "error code" problem.
As I didnt know what else to do, I loadead back the devtree and got that different error code on the phone. (one mentioned on the thread title).
And, this is pretty much my whole problem! lol
Any Ideas what should I do?
My Defy is from Brazil - Claro and was running 2.1 android at the beggining!
Tyvm!
it seems like we get the similar Err,my defy also stuck at bootloader Err,my Err code is a5 69 35 00 27,if you have solved the problem,please tell me something about it.

Nothing yet.
Still trying to boot anything in it. If I ever find something, I'll let you know!
I'm getting this error now on RSD Lite when trying to load the SBF 3.4.3-11
Failed Flashing process. Phone[0000]: Error flashing subscriber unit. Device API Error: 0xE003003F Adress: 0xB2383000 Command: ADDR (0xE023203F), phone conected

Now it shows Motorola logo for a few seccconds.
Stuck at code 39 or smthing while trying to install another SBF (the one with PAys Rom)
Ok, it unstucked, now RSD shows "restarting" and the motorola logo is on screen.
Finally, it loaded.
I used Pays Rom after a few tries with the first fixed SBF and jumping to the Pays Rom SBF.
After sometime, it installed!!!!!
The phone just started!!!!!
How about your problem mate, wich point are u at?
To solve both of your problems:
download and install the original 3.4.3-11 sbf, no nandroid or anything else.
You should allways be able to get into the original motorola boot loader and from there install any of their SBF, but some of the sbf versions with android do not allow downgrader, therefore you should be sure to use the same version and not a lower one.

1) Try flashing on different PC to start fresh.
2) If you'd flashed so many sbf. You might not be able to remember them all. My guess is that you might be at froyo state(corrupted/failed system code), thus flashing another Eclair 2.1 sbf would not solve your issue. You must try on Froyo sbf only starting from bootloader mode and rsdlite 4.9 or 5.0.
3) Take note of your battery level as it might draining down while you attempting to put some resuraction on the device.
4) Try relax and take a bath and smoke a bigger cigar just like the OP of this thread did...
i too have this same problem, exept i dont know what ver i had and i flashed so many sbf. ive found some sbf that work but i get no signal.

Please, tell me how to solve that problem with bootloader error A5, 70, 39,00 27 in my defy?? You have said you solved it. please help
you need to be calm and cool with lot of patience. It takes upto 10 - 15 Minutes...
the flashing happens at the speed of your computer.
try to use original cables and use USB ports of your desktop motherboard or laptop without any extension cables.
keep your pc in NO SLEEP mode. Batter should be almost full before flashing ...these are some tips...

Did you unlock the bootloader again? Afaik, it relocks the bootloader once you do sbf flash.

I'm pretty sure the bootloader can't relock. Unlocking physically blows a fuse.

At this time you CANT RELOCK the bootloader. Flashing another SBF only removes the "Unlocked" at the top left. But the phone is still unlocked.

Is it a hard brick? I had read in this forum somewhere that hard brick is possible after boot loader unlock. i like this phone very much. so worrying so much.

after flashing sbf file, no need to wipe data, if you stuck at some where, reflash the sbf file.

You are quite welcome. Been so long since I've used or looked at my flopside (no typo lol) that I had forgotten froyo needed the updated bootloader first. Glad its working again.

[Q] Fastboot Reason: Flash Failure

I'm in over my head and hoping the kindness of a stranger can bail me out! It all started when I attempted to root my wife's Razr M from Verizon. I used a utility (the DROID_RAZR_Utility_Jellybean_XT912_WinMacLin.zip) to attempt an update and then a root. Well the update failed and now I see this when the phone starts up.
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0
Battery OK
Transfer Mode:
USB Connected
Fastboot Reason: Flash Failure
usb connected
So I figured out that I can get to BP Tools and this somehow bypasses the problem and boots the phone normally. So as long as my wife doesn't turn the phone off, she'll be fine but I cannot leave it this way. I am open to suggestions and at your mercy. Thanks in advance!

No. I'd like to eventually but right now, I need to make that fastboot lock screen go away. Please treat me like a noob if it's not already apparent.
Thanks
What caused the update to fail? Also, you're lucky btw - Normally a failed update == a brick.
If you didn't root, you can probably take it to Verizon. If you were flashing the OTA and it went bad, that shouldn't be a problem at all...

I followed this video on youtube: youtube.com/watch?v=oDzMQykQ2fA How to Upgrade To And Root Jelly Bean on Droid Razr!
I watched the script run and it kept saying "fail" on several line items and I knew I was in trouble. Unfortunately this was self-induced and I have no desire to go to Verizon for help. I'm not that much of a noob. Anyhow, I'd just like to get back to square one and start over. What I did to get to BP Tools is to hold down volume up, volume down, and power button. Screen shuts off..let those buttons up and press them again which brings me to a second menu. From there I can choose recovery, fastboot, BP Tools, factory reset. The only one that helped was BP Tools which basically sent the phone to a regular boot and it acts normal. If I choose recovery, I get the android dude on his back with a explanantion or question mark, don't recall. If I press volume down, volume up and then release volume up, I can get to the menus where it allows you to run install from disk or something like that. I can't get to the point where I can see my phone on the computer so that I could place a flash file on the phone and re-flash it or something. If any of this sounds remotely familiar to anyone out there, please feel free to add your 2 cents. Thanks!
Try to wipe all user data after you get to the screen where you can install zips in recovery. See if that works. Pm me if you get stuck and we can possibly fix it through adb

This looks really straightforward. I think I can handle it. Are you certain it will work? Just plug in the phone and run the bat file? Right now the phone works so I guess will give it a shot and hopefully I'm on my way. Thanks everyone for the assist.

You need to flash the stock firmware using RSD or House of Moto. This should be posted over at the HD forums, but the process is essentially the same for any Moto device. There's tons of threads about it. Download the software, download the firmware, connect the phone and flash.
