Hey guys I need major help (I searched the whole forum and the internet).
I rooted my device and installed Razr Bootstrap and then I installed Arctic 3.0.0 + Hebrew mod, and I got boot looped.
So the thing is, I gotta fastboot now, but Im not sure which fastboot file I need (there are many versions and Im not sure which one matches my phone).
The thing is, I have a backup file I mad using CWM on my external SD card, can I use it to fastboot?
Please help me, Im kinda hopeless right now.
BTW: My computer wont recognize the Razr, I downloaded the drivers through MotoHelper and still nothing, what do I do?

go into motorola.com and look for support/warranty then provide your IMEI and you'll get exactly model of your razr. Then grab the indicared rom to ur razr and flash it with rsd lite
After flashing correct rom you'll be able to restore ur backup on it.
A few tools you may need

The other poster gave good info. If it is not recognized try uninstall and then re install all drivers. Try different cable. Try different usb port.
Thanks guys, a few more questions.
Where can I see my IMEI?
Do I need to provide my IMEI to a motorolla support employee, or can I get the model by IMEI automatically?
Open up the slot where you put in your Sim card. Your imei is printed there.. On the flap.

Press *#06# on your dialer.
This is universal for all mobile phone.
Thanks guys, got my IMEI.
But I still dont understand - how can I get the RAZR version using the IMEI?
If I fastboot my phone with the wrong version will I get bricked?
Do I have to use the exact same version?
Guys Im really sorry to bother, but you have to understand Ive been hanging around with no phone for 2 days, please help me out.
Will I get bricked if I get the wrong Fastboot file? cuz if I dont, I can try a few.
And how can I get my phone system version without turning it on? (it's on a bootloop).
The world is a big place dude. Where did you get your phone from? Africa? America? Asia? And which Telco?
Help us help you.
Well seeing since you have the Hebrew mod I assume it is a GSM xt910.And looking at the Rom page you downloaded from it says you need to start with a file from
Working for all build number 6.5.1-73. Find that build for your country. So Im also assuming you can get your file if you know your country from here.

i was wondering if anyone can help me my son got a hold of my phone which i had left on the table with file explorer open was trying to mod some thing.... don't know exactly what he moded or deleted but i had to do a factory rest.........now things get even crazier....no matter what i try to install it says insufficient memory....i can no longer root cause it says eloc_library[1315]: 14871 cannot locate 'android_reboot'...CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE...also everytime i try to connect to my wifi it tries to obtain the ip address then sits with disabled underneath it along with the type of security for it....i am running 2.3.6 on the rogers network in canada.......i have no apps installed and a 16 gig memory card with 11 gigs available.....sorry if i am in the wrong section but i need help real bad!!!!would hate to take it back to rogers in this stae.....i have been using the motofail rooting method
If you have clockworkmod or any other custom recovery then you may flash the stock rom, this will help for sure (the question if you can do it). Factory reset doesn't reinstall all files of the system, just cleans the data, so if something was deleted it was not recovered.

sadly,i am a noob at this and that was what i was working on at the time of this disaster.....so i can say that i do not have a back-up!!!!!!!!! thanks for your response!!!
Please tell me you did a Nandroid backup immediately after rooting your phone. It is the first thing I do after rooting incase myself or one of my friends accidentally delete a critical file. If you did it would be as simple as booting into recovery and doing a Nandroid restore.
*EDIT* Sorry I did not catch the last post where you mention no Nandroid backup, with no mention of the phone model or manufacturer it is difficult to point you the right way (For example on a HTC on Sprint I could point you to the RUU to basically set it up as it was when it left Sprint for the market) Including these details will make it easier for someone to point you in the right direction. On better examination it appear you are using a Motorola track down the SBF file for your phone and reflash through RSDLite

fixed my problem thanks to all for the help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi all. Im new and I have a problem which I cant seem to fix.
I bricked my phone trying to drop it to stock so that I could get ICS. I had gingerbread at the time.
So when I got it bricked. I googled and tried a bunch of things like Droid razr utility 1.4, 1.7,1.8. I tried them all to restore my phone to the original ,but everytime it doesnt work. I get errors saying stuff like " failed <remote> and it just keeps occuring...
I cant go into recovery mode or anything else, I can only use AP fast boot :\ .
Its really annoying know,I downloaded a bunch of tools and all have not work...the only one I havent used is RSDlite. But im confused about it because Im suppose to download the file its suppose to restore to.But I cant find it...my phone is the motorola droid razr ,and its GSM im pretty sure. I live in Canada :s...and I remember seeing it used asia retail version. So i dont know if that helps...I know it had gingerbread because everytime I had a system update to 6.1.40 or something like that. And it would always fail like 25% through installation...thats why I tried restoring to stock.
....So please help me. Im really stuck and dont know what to do.
Much appreciated.

If you are sure that you are using an asian razr gsm,
you can download this fastboot file "673.94.324.XT910.PSHAsiaRetail.en.03" from this forum:
http://www.droidevelopers.com/showt...ia-Retail-amp-ME-Retail-ICS-Firmware-download
Sign up needed though, and flash with RSDlite by following instructions in that thread.

Everytime I try droid uitlity. it does nothing. I get failed remote.....i tried all versions. 1.8,1.7,1.6,1.4-1.142.
Also I should note.I think the reason my phone is bricked is because I tried downgrading but I didnt root my phone...so yea.
Shouldnt matter if you were rooted or not if your going to Fast Boot back. You are using the Utility for GSM and not CDMA?
The instructions to flash back using fastboot are here: http://theunlockr.com/2012/01/24/how-to-restore-the-motorola-droid-razr-using-fastboot-files/ and the fastboot files can be found here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org Just make sure you're using the right file for your carrier, and the md5 matches.
Once you're on stock ICS, you might want to think twice about rooting it. Motorola includes a root checker in the ICS update. I wish I would have realized this before I rooted, since the only thing I really needed was wifi tethering, which you can get on stock, unrooted using FoxFi.
Good luck!
hmmm ill give this a try.this is basically my last resort hopefully it works! il let you guys know how it goes!

Okay so next problem...I got rsdlite 5.7 . I tried 3 different versions...the "spyderird_u.01.26.0...sign_asia" didnt pass the first step...and the "fastboot-p2b_spyd....chinaretail " aswell didnt pass the first step....but I tried the "SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-7..hwp2b._SIGNED" and i got all the way to the 6th step...so im concluding I just have to find the one that takes me through the process fully....any ideas which version would acheive this?
I posted my phone version and info above....ill repost here.

Hello,
Im having problem that i couldent find any topic for anywhere, every topic is about bad card and no topics about bad slot.
So my SDcard slot is dead. And funny thing is it just stoped working without me doing nothing. I was not installing nothing or anything, screen just lighted up and it was showing that SD card was removed Phone ofcourse would not show me nothing in gallery, music etc.
My first thought was that SDcard died, but when i put my card in friends phone it is working perfectly well. I also tried putting his card in my Evo and same thing happened, it started to load files and imidiatly showed msg that card was removed unexpectadly.
So, as the problem was phone and not card, my first reaction was "Great, at least I didnt lost all my data on card, ill just return my phone to original ROM and send it for repair" becaose I have one year of warranty left.
But latter on I realized that i do not now a way of installing a ROM without an SDcard, and im not evan sure that is possilble,
So can annyone please help me with either fixing this card reader problem (if it is some way of software error) or helping me restore my phone to original ROM so I can send it for repear.
Thank you.
Go to recovery, do some wipe, when it's doing the wipe immidiatelly pul out battery. Do it till the phone dies. Now NOONE can find out you have root/custom recovery on it
Or, easy way, download newest RUU and flash it via PC (you don't need SD card i think).

Loving the first option, that is something Chuck Norris would do. But too bad ass for me Im afraid.
Second seems ok. I just need help to do it. I guess there is a tuttorial or something as im not so experienced in flashing. I did a s-off, rooted the phone and flashed the different ROMs like 20 times but thats it.
EDIT: I was just searching for a topic with instaling the rom directly from PC without SDcard and I really cannot find evan one.

Go here and download the file which match your phone's original carrier. Make sure you install HTC Drivers on your pc and run the exe file that you downloaded. Make sure also that you downloaded the right file which should have the SHOOTERU or SHOOTER_U word on the name and NOT SHOOTER ( shooteru is for GSM and shooter is CDMA ). The software will install the original ICS firmware released by your carrier. The downside to this method is that it will also update your hboot which depending on your carrier might be hard to downgrade to lower hboot for flashing custom roms.
Hi, sorry to xda for posting in bad sections in the past but i am dumb hence my problem please please please help
I have mb860 i think i have emara as firmware? when i browse through my backup files from titanium backup in text mode i see android 2.3.4 then emara and its version...
I cant fully check this all because my phone is not working and only boots into android recovery. I have stock, my bootloader is not unlocked. I tried flashing over cwm into the recovery partition and got an error basocally saying my bl was locked, so i tried some fixes with fastboot but both methods gave me "(bootloader)OEM unlock not implementable"
So i dont know how to unlock bl, which means i dont know how to open a adb shell and move around my phone...
Also i got rsd lite (i never used this when i programed for android) because i wanted to push an entire sbf.. Only problem is every sbf link is broken for my version that i find and even xda links to a filefsctory depository wich is littered with actual viruses...
My head really hurts so if anyone can help im so sorry if im not clear i will try hard to explain just ask.... I havnt slept since it happened about 40 or 50 hours ago?
Oh yeah what happened?
I moved an app called "system tuner" out of /sys and instantly got notifications telling me applications were force closing... They were back to back and i could not long hold home and just move system tuner back and ignore them, i tried and almost made it to move system tuner back but then all i saw was a vertical display of my battery being charged....... Now i can boot into android recovery mode and nvflash fastboot rsd and about 7 more...
I thought i had luck with usb enumeration and that would make it go as usb mass storage and i could do something. And my usb driver read it as a usb storage device but it didnt work.
I have a backup of user and syte, data by backup titanium on my pc thats how i saw i had 2.3.4... The update.zip backup is on my phone... Speaking of that can i somehow fix my problem by putting a .zip file on my phone? To repopulate it? I think its all gone????
EDIT: MY BLOOTLOADER IS LOCKED... IM 99%
And idk if it means anything when i plug into rsd mode, my ui on my pc tells me im connected to "se flash olympus" which is all good but it doesnt have an (imei/esn/meid) number.?????

So basically what you're saying is you have a stock device, locked bootloader, and you failed to read the directions about unlocking (pudding sbf, oem unlock, custom recovery). How do you expect to flash custom roms or custom recoveries with a locked bootloader?

Oops i m dumb ok got it!
hey guys, i have no clue what happened. i havent fooled around and fiddled with my HDX 8.9 in months. i rooted it in december and installed safestrap last month (but i didnt use it. i only installed safestrap in anticipation of a rom) and out of the blue my kindles wifi stopped working yesterday. i decided to restart it bc thats the ultimate fix for all electronics but now its stuck on the animated kindle fire boot logo. ADB works and i can also boot into fastboot. Thats where my knowledge ends. i dont have the knowledge you guys have and i have googled this for the past 3 hoours but to no avail. i would find other help on other devices but i dont wanna risk ruining my hdx even more by trying another devices fix.
can anyone tell me how to recover from adb. i tried this:

and it just booted me into fastboot and i would use this command: "fastboot -w -i 0x1949" and that doesnt do anything. androidcowboy seemed to have some problems with that method too, so im skeptical. is there someway to push a unmodified firmware and get stock back?? ill provide any more info you guys need. a quick step by step or a link to somebody elses page would be awesome!! a cookie to the best helper! :highfive:
PS i should also mention that i can in fact boot into safestrap. however, my backup does not appear. my internal storage in safestrap says 0mb. is my internal sdcard not mounting for a reason?
please help!

hey guys, i have no clue what happened. i havent fooled around and fiddled with my HDX 8.9 in months. i rooted it in december and installed safestrap last month (but i didnt use it. i only installed safestrap in anticipation of a rom) and out of the blue my kindles wifi stopped working yesterday. i decided to restart it bc thats the ultimate fix for all electronics but now its stuck on the animated kindle fire boot logo. ADB works and i can also boot into fastboot. Thats where my knowledge ends. i dont have the knowledge you guys have and i have googled this for the past 3 hoours but to no avail. i would find other help on other devices but i dont wanna risk ruining my hdx even more by trying another devices fix.

did you use the normal usb calbe to boot into fastboot mode? or you were using a special usb cable?
if you can boot into safesatrap, then your hdx is not a brick at all ,you can fix it in safestrap ,try to google the ways using the SS.

thanks for response. i was using a normal cable. are you sugesting that i load amazons official firmware over my stock partition through SS? this is why i was asking because this is what it seems google say to do. i was planning on doing that but i didnt want to mess my device up more so thats why i was asking. i was thinking of creating a slot and installing stock firmware on it and see if it was safe but because my internal storage doesnt mount and shows up as 0mb i was unable to create a slot and load the firmaware.
please be a little more specific as to what i should be googling and i will gladly do it. i hate asking questions in forums bc i dont want to be that guy who takes peoples time up for a simple solutioin but the truth is that i looked everywhere before i asked the question. i have a couple of methods i would like to use but i dont know which one is the right one and the safest one. im leaning towards reloading stock amazon firmware into the stock slot on SS.
thanks again and sorry for being a pain. im a noob compared to most of you guys but believe it or not im quite tech saavy.
anybody toss me a clue please. should i go ahead a flash stock rom? i went to dl stock rom from http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_left_v4_sib?ie=UTF8&nodeId=201357220 and it was a .bin. should i rename it to a zip? also, the file i downloaded is 488mb however when it downloaded it said it was supposed to be 795mb. i dled it twice and it came out 488 both times. can somebody give me a md5 of their update so i know i have a proper file. sorry to sound desperate but i need answers. :fingers-crossed:

My copy of update-kindle-14.3.1.0_user_310079820 is 794 MB.
MD5 : 0F2BC5278C057E7A6B4823B0F68D0727
It looks like you've got a bad copy

I have only installed it on a rom slot. It worked like it should but in your case I'm not sure.
