[Q] RSDLITE in windows 8 not working?

Hey I've seen lots of posts around XDA about Win8 and RSDLITE issues, I can do everything - fastboot, see SD Card on phone, EVERYTHING, but when I installed RSDLITE 6.1.4 onto my Win8 machine, it just won't recognise my Razr M (XT905).
Just trying to get the newly released firmware files for JB onto my razr...can you fastboot them or do you need to use RSDLITE on the XMLs?
HELP!!!

Just do it manually using command-line fastboot.
In your case full list will be:
fastboot flash partition gpt_main0.bin
fastboot flash sbl1 sbl1.mbn
fastboot flash sbl2 sbl2.mbn
fastboot flash sbl3 sbl3.mbn
fastboot flash rpm rpm.mbn
fastboot flash tz tz.mbn
fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
fastboot flash fsg fsg.mbn
fastboot erase modemst1
fastboot erase modemst2
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
fastboot flash devtree device_tree.bin
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash cdrom cdrom
fastboot erase tombstones
fastboot erase cache
If you want to delete user data, add:
fastboot erase userdata
After that continue booting by typing:
fastboot continue
and you've done.
You can make simply bat-file and just copy these lines there to simplify the procedure.

i'm running windows 8 and have never had any issues with rsdlite.
i'd try running usbdeview as admin and remove all moto drivers and then plug in phone to let the drivers load again.
another thing to be aware of is rsdlite asks for network access on first start, so make sure you allow access.

Fastboot error

I have tried to install twrp recovery via fastboot and I get this error
1.C:\fastboot>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
2.target reported max download size of 1526722560 bytes
3.error: cannot load 'recovery.img': No error
All other commands work to erase, reboot etc, but cannot flash recovery twrp on to my LGG2 D803 , any help will be appreciated.

Got it to work but flashed 3 different twrp and cm mod img and will not boot into recovery

Well if you ever Brick your phone to the point that the only thing that works is Fastboot, I was able to recover my phone using this procedure, It was a lifesaver. The phone works perfectly now, follow the Youtube instructions, I also typed the procedure out too. Always type fastboot flash then the command
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQVTc2m6U-I
Use above link to completely redoo your LGG2 from fastboot, re loading all the partitions.

fastboot flash reboot
after flashing all the partitions it should load so you can flash the tot/kdz file via flash utility 2014 in the command mode, by holding the volume up mode and plugging in the usb into the phone. then reload the original firmware and install twrp and if you want wipe it and reload one of the custom roms.

It is a mistery for me. I make all this commands and the flash it is ok for all but my yd201 it is in bootloop always. I have tried alk kind if Roms kit kat, lollipoop. Version RU, EU, Chine, Hong Kong.

It worked! I used these commands to flash my yd206 to yd201 coming from 4.4.3 kitkat to 5.0.0-RU1.1.124 (the archive I downloaded from the Internet contained all required files) and after running them using the fastboot, as I said already, it worked! The first boot took very long, like like 8-10 minutes, I am not sure how long it took, but it was a while, but it worked in the end.

Help, a/b parition screwing up my OS

Hey so I was previously on the oreo beta and reverted back to stock. I reflashed stock using a few tutorials around and it worked for a bit but magisk was screwing it up and the log file kept filling up all the storage (a known bug) and every time it rebooted it would factory reset the phone. For some reason I changed the active partition to b instead of a and magisk isnt installed but apps like snapchat don't work.
What's the best course of action to fix this? Twrp doesnt show up in recovery, its only the stock recovery. Do I need to reflash twrp on partition b and swap back to a?

Flash back to stock
Then do not lock bootloaders
Sent from my PH-1 using XDA Labs

I never locked bootloader, and do you have a good tutorial on going back to stock since the one I used didn't work that well?

This thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/essential-phone/development/stock-7-1-1-nmj20d-t3701681
Download one of the stock OTA firmwares and "flash_all.bat/sh"
This will flash both A/B partitions and take you back to stock.

Note that both partitions are flashed.
Look at the flash commands in the version you want to go to and make sure BOTH slots are being flashed.

I'll double check that too. Also, do I need the /sh at the end of the .bat file? I don't remember reading that I need to use that on windows.

I'm sure you have solved this, but for the record, it's either. .bat or .sh depending on whether you are using windows or Linux.

Heard that there are two Oct updates, may I know if yours is the latest?

.15 is the second (latest) October update.

Guys, my phone is currently in august update (and I've unlocked and rooted the device with Magisk to enable camera api 2). What should I do to OTA successfully and safely? Thanks in advance!

Can't flash through miui flasher. Is it possible to flash this through recovery?

Are U tested?

I tested, it worked. Updated to Oct update thru fast boot.
There's a minor glitch - you have to remove the space of the folder name, otherwise windows cannot find correct folder location.

There is a space between "Android" and "8.1.0", the space must be removed or replaced by other characters.

I researched for such a long time on this, I'm exactly the same in your situation, rooted with magisk, camera2api substratum things like that on august patch.
Later on i figured myself a way to update without losing any data or wiping the phone which is :
1. download the full stock rom of august patch, it should be tgz files, extract it.
2. Make sure u got adb fastboot all the stuff installed on pc, and also mi a2 drivers.
3. On the phone, go to developer options and turn on usb debugging, guess u already done it since you rooted the phone.
4 now connect the phone to pc in fastboot mode.
5. After extract the tgz august stock rom, locate to folder "image".
6. Hold shift and right click open cmd or in my case open windows power shell.
7. Type fastboot devices to see if your phone is connected properly.
8. Paste these codes and hit enter.
9. After that the phone will be rebooted and after success booting go to settings > system update and start installing the ota without issues.
The codes :
fastboot flash bluetooth_a bluetooth.img
fastboot flash bluetooth_b bluetooth.img
fastboot flash devcfg_a devcfg.img
fastboot flash devcfg_b devcfg.img
fastboot flash dsp_a dsp.img
fastboot flash dsp_b dsp.img

fastboot flash rpm_a rpm.img

fastboot flash hyp_a hyp.img
fastboot flash hyp_b hyp.img
fastboot flash keymaster_a keymaster.img

fastboot flash cmnlib64_a cmnlib64.img
fastboot flash cmnlib64_b cmnlib64.img
fastboot flash cmnlib_a cmnlib.img
fastboot flash cmnlib_b cmnlib.img
fastboot flash abl_a abl.elf
fastboot flash abl_b abl.elf
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
fastboot flash system_a system.img
fastboot flash system_b system.img

fastboot flash splash splash.img
fastboot flash mdtpsecapp_a mdtpsecapp.img
fastboot flash mdtpsecapp_b mdtpsecapp.img
fastboot flash storsec storsec.mbn
fastboot reboot
Guess that every patches on mi a2 will work with thus method, haven't tested with any version other than august patch. Let me know if it's work !

Search google for mi a2 manually flash firmware.
The result that said "techdroider.com" will be the answer you looking for.
If you don't want to lose any data but still wanna update, remove line "fastboot....userdata.img"

No November update?
