I get the message failed to boot 0x1000 Entering NVFLASH RECOVERY MODE.
I had installed Cyanogen Mod 2.3.4 and didn't like it at all and tried to flash the sbf to 2.3.3 . Now that I am reading it seems like a dumb move.
This message comes up when I turn it on and disappears quickly to remain at a black screen.
Is there anything I can do?

Yes, it was a dumb move. You should have read all the warnings that said NOT to sbf flash after bootloader unlock.
Anyway, now you need to SBF flash 2.3.4 with pudding and you should be good to go.
How can I flash sbf 2.3.4 if RSD Lite doesn't show anything? Or should I be using a different program like fastboot?
Do I just redownload the 2.3.4 cyanogen and install with the program you suggest? I am unsure how this will work because the computer doesn't beep or anything like that when I connect it.
Thanks for your help.
We don't have the program to nvflash our devices. You can try to get motorola to replace it but but otherwise i believe you're screwed

the only two sbf's that are safe to flash for people who installed the OTA update to gingerbread is the 2.3.4 sbf and the pudding sbf.
any others have the possibility of hard bricking your device, and nvidia hasn't released the nvflash program; therefor we're stuck at this step. no way to recovery from it.
What about these people I read about hacking up a usb cable ?

That is to rsd flash without a battery, in case you flash when your battery is too low and the phone dies mid flash

I have another battery that I can use and a friend has an Atrix I can stick the battery in to charge up. Does that improve the chances?

We don't have the program to NVflash an atrix. If you can get into rsdlite mode to flash an sbf you can fix it, but if
nvflash is your only option then you are hard bricked

I guess I'll try my luck with Motorola.
I sent my phone in for repair and they sent me a new one. Took the full 7 working days after they received it but I am happy. No more rooting / messing with this until nvflash is working.

Nvflash may never be released...
Rooting should never give you any problems. Unlocking the bootloader and putting on a custom rom just requires some reading and more reading beforehand but isn't too hard if you follow the instructions.
Well i am not rooted at the moment cause i flashed a zip that took root off and still have a custom kernal going with unlocked bootloader is that even supposed to be possible?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Thats impossible. As soon as you flashed that "zip" it over writes everything. You need to be unlock to have a custom kernel

well thats what i thought but i couldent use root explorer or any root access apps but when i turn off the phone it still says unlock

Interesting. Interesting indeed. Is there anyway you could upload a vid of this?
i wouldent suggest it seeing now after it turned off it wouldent do the sbf files to fix. idk if it was dealing with that cause the sbf always finishes but ends up in a boot loop which as of right now im trying to fix it. but if it happens again ill c what i can do to show you. cause i always thought you had to be rooted to have an unlocked but idk if it was just a one time thing
Is the super user app installed?

I have this same issue right now how it happened for me is that I orginally used the one click root method I found here. Later down the road I noticed that a stable build of cm7 had come out so I decided to try it out. I flashed pudding and it worked just fine and unlocked the device when I went to go get clockwork on the device however, I noticed the my root was no longer working reading in the comments section I saw that the one click root method was not compatible with the unlocked bootloader. I tried to root the phone with the system.img file that it mentioned using in the guide it worked at least as far as pushing it to the device but still no root. I then tried to flash the device back to stock I used the sbf file provided and it did wipe the phone but I still have the unlock icon when I boot the phone and can no longer root it no matter what method I try. If anyone can help me with re locking my device, I would greatly appreciate it.
Have you tryed the depudding. Go into the pudding unlock section theres one that relocks it just like how u unlocked it
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
As far as I'm aware, being unlocked and being rooted are two separate processes on this phone. You don't have to have one to have the other. I've been rooted and locked, rooted and unlocked, and unlocked with no root. Hope that helps.
And I haven't had any problems with the one-click root and unlocking or sbf-ing back to stock.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Thanks for the help guys I got it to work now had to do a factory reset and then flash the sbf file and the seemed to unroot the device it still didn't unlock it however I think if I used the depudding method curly mentioned it would work.

I am currently running an "unlocked bootloader" on a non- rooted system on my photon 4g. I was rooted and then unrooted because I couldn't flash cwm for some reason....I am really really looking to installing miui with the ultimate iphone theme. I love how poloshed and clean it looks!
i know there are many tpics similar but i cant find a straight answer or working link..
basically i flashed a rom and this rom ws working fine until it started to reboot everytime i chargd the phone then it would boot loop for like 30min and finaly go in to the rom.. ive tried to access the recovery to switch roms but it just bootloops.. onlything i can go is to bootloader.. i was looking for a stock rooted
P0g5?? file to flash in bootloader but all i can find is mr2 and its in multiupload which is not working for me.. can anyone please give me a working link or answer... and the last option i would hate to do is completely restore to stock and root allover again.. i want to restore to stock rooted/s-off.. not stock rooted/s-on.. please help anyone....
Can u download a new recovery, rename, then flash in hboot possibly?

My friend's phone tried to pull an OTA while he had CWM recovery installed, and it started boot looping. Had to download the stock recovery, name is PG05IMG.zip in the root of the SDCard, and force the phone to boot to the bootloader and install it. Once it did, the phone started up, rebooted itself, and installed the OTA fine. Sounds like yours may be trying to do something similar?
If so rooted phones need caches cleared for the ota to work.
Sent from my ADR6400L using Tapatalk 2
From my understanding, Rooted can still take OTA, but you have to have stock recovery to do it (as I witnessed earlier). You will lose root, and will have to re-flash recovery to TWRP, CWMR, or whatever your normal choice is, and then re-apply the su.zip, but otherwise easy as pie.

Stock recovery PG05IMG.zip http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/PG05IMG-Stock-Recovery.zip
Hello, first of all I would like to thank everyone who has posted in this thread to try and help out. I just started having a very similar problem- I'm rooted and running stock, but apparently my phone accepted an OTA and I'm stuck in a bootloop as well.
I got into CWM recovery and downloaded the stock recovery PG05IMG.zip, but it won't install. It just aborts every time I try to install it. I'm a noob at this stuff and not very good at dealing with these sorts of things and I've been having a panic attack for the past hour, so if anyone could help me as soon as possible I would really appreciate it.
I'm really scared of making things worse than they already are. I just want a working phone.

The zip won't work in CWM because it's not designed for use with CWM. It's designed for use in Fastboot. Should be on the root of your sd card. From off, if I'm correct (like this with other HTC devices), hold volume down and power to boot into fastboot. This will allow it to flash the stock recovery.

Right. I also have a recovery zip that installs the stock recovery if anyone wants it?
It can be found here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/61129367/OTARestoreAndRecovery.zip
(warning: I have tested it and it works but it did cause me a bootloop, and im assuming this is becuase im on a different rom - - - so not responsible for any damages)

I flashed stock with LGPNST and i re-rooted and unlocked the bootloader. I had the same problem upon rebooting. SO...I can flash through LGPNST stock and root but every time i try the boot loader unlock and reboot my phone has the original problems . I've tried the process a few times with the same results.please help.

It may be helpful to someone else, if you were to explain how you fixed it.
Yes, it would indeed be quite helpful if you could elaborate... because this just happened to me and I'm stumped...
I followed the same exact procedure I've used other times without error...
Except that now, after LGNPST, then root, then freegee... go to restart the phone and it hangs... won't boot up. What gives?
I repeated the process and did a factory reset after LGNPST back to stock, since I noticed (oddly enough) that all my apps were still there after LGNPST (full, to 100%)...
Still no luck...
EDIT-- Can't for the life of me figure this effing thing out. LGNPSTed I don't know how many times... with factory reset, without... I've tried fully relocking and unrooting the device... both through the FreeGee app *and* manually through adb... no error mssgs, double-checked... everything followed to the letter. There's only one constant each time: Once I've re-unlocked the bootloader (either with the app or through adb)... the phone is basically softbricked... once I turn the power off, it is A) not possible to boot into the stock rom, B) not possible to access fastboot menu, and C) not possible to boot into recovery. The only thing it *is* possible to do is get into download mode... and from there I'd just have to LGNPST again, but what's the point, because once I've done that and tried to unlock again, I already know what's coming. Never been this frustrated with a phone before, any help would be greatly appreciated.
EDIT 2-- No luck. LGNPSTed to stock once more, and factory reset, because yet again, all my apps were still intact... idk. Anyways, decided to do some hunting around with adb, and "adb reboot recovery" produced an error screen... the android lying on his back with case open... am I to assume this means there is a problem with my recovery partition that could be causing my difficulties... or would one expect to see this screen when trying to access recovery on the stock phone?

Honestly I don't know how it was resolved. I lgpnsted and rooted and unlocked the bootloader like 5 times.I got into recovery a few times but then got the same problem two more times. The last time I got into recovery I managed to flash a custom kernel and everything was fine from then on. I just don't understand how this problem is caused or even how it is truly fixed.

There have been a small number of phones that will not unlock with standard freegee. They can be unlocked but it is riskier, you would need to talk to Shelnutt in irc.

Our phones successfully unlocked with freegee originally but some error caused us to lose access to the bootloader and corrupt whatever ROM we were on and then cause errors where we could use free gee but run into problems. In my situation the problem was resolved somehow and free gee worked fine afterwards

Just for the sake of documentation, I made a little log of my most recent attempt at getting back into the fastboot menu... obviously it's convoluted, but hey... sometimes experimentation gets results. This time, however, it did not... still no luck.
LGNPST back to stock
factory reset from settings->backups
run root exploit
restore original backups from first time freegeeing via adb using carrett's method
reboot
full unroot from SU app
factory reset
LGNPST to stock
re-run root exploit
reboot
re-unlock with freegee script (adb)
disconnect cable
reboot
(right here is the failure. after running "power off and reboot" from the power button menu, phone shuts off. it tries to start up, then i get a quick flash of the LG logo, straight to a backlit black screen that hangs indefinitely. only thing possible from here is to enter download mode.)
Back to the drawing board...

Just for documentation and in case I can help solving this, I am having the same problem, I explain my case with more detail on the FreeGree Thread, but pretty much I am on the same ship as you, I have tried after LGNPST, with and without factory reset, with the Google Play application and with the desktop application, but same result, black screen after restart.
I have a brand new phone, picked it less than a week ago, could LG have changed something? bootloader/recovery partition sizes? something?
I am still within the 14 days period and as much as I like the phone, if I can't bootloader unlock, means I will be stuck on stock ROM, and that is something I don't want... might as well go and change it for a different phone, or sell it and get a nexus 4...
I get same.thing. black screen after freegee. Its two days old. So now what!?

Hi.
Please help.
I need to reset my phone to factory defaults. (as im sending it back to orange for a replacement).
I have rooted my phone, but havn't unlocked the bootloader. (rooted using peet's tools)
Its running stock orange UK 45.31.0.MB860.Orange.en.GB. (have never applied a rom to the phone).
I installed the CWM manager(months ago, as i was looking at the roms) from the play store, which installed the clockwork mod Recovery on my phone.
(however this i know wont work as i havnt unlocked the bootloder !)
Now when i try and perform a factory reset, (on button and vol down button).
I get the option for Android recovery.(as well as a shed load of other options).
When i select this with the vol up button, it errors with the following.
Failed to boot 2
Then when i press the vol up button the following is displayed.
Starting RSD Protocol Support.
I dont want to unlock the bootloader, i just need to ability to run android recovery and return the phone to its original state.
(So Orange accept the phone under the orange care agreement).
Please can you advise...

Im just trying to undo the work the CWM manager did..
I dont want to install a new rom, i need to return the phone to its factory defaults.

Flashing via rsd can be done anytime, regardless of the state of the device.

Thankyou so much for your help...
I found the correct sbf file for my stock Orange uk GB 2.3.4 phone.
and managed to flash it, all be it with a couple of heart stopping moments.
(whilst the phone restarted into different modes, windows started searching for drivers !!!. even though i had installed them already..
This caused it to fail early on !.. after the main download.
However a restart later, and another issue. the phone has now been flashed back to the correct stock image..
Note to self, ensure windows is never set to auto install windows updates....
flippn thing caused the usb drivers to reload for the atrix phone.
still. one happy atrix customer..
Thanks for your help !!.

No problems.
I performed a google search for orange.sbf and came up with the following.
http://www.das8nt.com/sbffiles.html
This has a load of sbf files..
Specifically, the one i needed was.
1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31-release-keys-signed-Orange-GB.sbf
This worked a dream, putting the phone back.
(ive now got this replaced by orange).
Good luck....
and remember, before you do it, ensure windows is set to not auto update windows updates !!!!....

I've had 3 phones changed by orange all rooted with unlocked bootloader.. never had a problem. Tho I do pay for orange care package...
