[Q] problem unlocking bootloader - Motorola Photon 4G

so, i tried to unlock my bootloader following qbking's video and hard bricked my 1st photon. I bricked when i tried to flash derpunlock using rsdlite 5.5
In the compendium thread, it looks like the steps were slightly different and i was wondering if i just screwed up qbking's instructions, or should i follow the compendium instead?
sorry if this is a stupid question. any help would be much appreciated.

You cant get into rsd protocal?

If you followed all the steps you should have been fine, are you sure you didn't forget anything? Maybe download RSS lite 5.6, that's the latest and it worked for my photon
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium

i got to where it said "Starting RSD protocol support" like in the video by holding Power + Vol. up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwRjFrzClBs
then i hit Start in RSD lite. It froze at "Executing 99%" like the video said it would, but my phone went black and never turned on again.
looking closer, i see that im flashing derpunlock and he's flashing pudding_stock_unlock. could that have done it?

derpunlock is what i used if i remember correctly

does anyone has a link to the driver flash MDM6600

Well yeah its supposed to do that. Did you wait for it to say flashing failed before you unplugged the phone? Cause once it does, that part of the unlocking process is done, and if you turned on your phone manually, it'd still start up like it used to. It might take a while to say flashing failed on rsd lite, but you cant unplug it until you do

yeah, i waited til it said flashing failed. my phone was off when it was done though, couldnt ever get it back on after that.
should i run RSDlite when my phone says "RSD" or "starting rsd protocal"?
also, thanks for the replies everyone.

[HELP] SBF/ RSD Lite not working

I have tried both older and newer versions of RSD Lite and the drivers for the X2, have un installed and re installed the drivers from both my win7 laptop and my XP desktop numerous time, let all drivers fully detect and install and rebooted the systems. USB debugging is active and I have followed SBF Tutorial straight through. My phone is on the manually downloaded stock version of 2.3.3 from xda and has never been rooted.
I start RSD and point it to SBF file, plug in USB to computer, startup phone to fastboot menu and scroll to rsd and hit volume up, connect phone to computer and....... nothing, phone is not recognized by rsd and start button does nothing.
I need help to sbf back to 2.2 so I can run pre-rooted 2.3.3 !
Any thoughts or suggestions?

I used these successfully this morning.
Try wiping data. I tried to RSD Lite this morning and it wouldn't boot after, so I wiped data and it worked. Also does RSD take a while to finish? It should. About 10 minutes. If it takes 5 minutes, somethings not working, at that point I would suggest re-downloading your SBF file, make sure the file you are using is for the DROID X2.
Have you solved this yet? Im interested in knowing what worked for you
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App
I haven't had a chance to work on this yet. I can tell you that the sbf file is the one from the DROID X2 forums. RSD will not show anything working when I hit start and does not show my device, I have also done a full wipe .....twice

Boot up your phone and plug it in. Does anything show up in device manager? Also, with your phone booted, if you plug it in does lsd lite recognize it?
If you are still under warranty you could try dropping the phone in a bucket of water and try it with a new phone! That gem just came to me in a dream

I understand you had your sense of humor removed, and im sorry about that, but I don't think the OP is actually going to try it, I've been working with him on the issue and I think he understands im not being serious. Your advice was just as helpful, if you read the first post he answered all your questions

Hmm...don't see anything about device manager or if rsd lite can recognize it during normal booting of the phone.
Do you know who will be reading your post in two months? Will they know you were kidding?

You have to put the phone in RED mode. Here's how. Press down on volume while powering on phone. Youll see fastboot on the top of screen. Next scroll with volume down until you see RSD protocol, around 8or9 clicks. Then plug in phone, you should be good.

I'm having the exact same issue with Windows 7 x64 posted about it in another thread, anyone having any revelations?
Also OP what did you have your phone set up with before you were trying to restore it? I had V6 supercharger and root through gingerbreak 1.2, I unrooted with gingerbreak 1.2 and tried to remove v6 by re-running the script and choosing the options that sounded like they would unroot it. I then factory reset it a few times. Maybe its something we did with our phones.
Hey actually quick question for you OP added to the previous post, are you using a Motorola USB cable or some other micro-USB cable, I'm using an HTC right now I'm going to get my hands on a Motorola in a few and try that.
I didn't do anything fancy with the phone prior to downloading the stock ota and flashing it in stock recovery. Never rooted or anything. I was using the Motorola usb that came with the phone. I am still going to work this out when I can steal it from my wife long enough.

[Q]Rooted Atrix Hard Reset Failure?

When ever I try either the Fast boot android recovery, or Factory Reset from the Atrix [rooted W locked boot loader, stock gingerbread] it will reboot only to stop at Failed to Boot 2.
Removing the battery usually recovers the phone.
How to I get around th is problem, or do I have to take it back to AT&T for a swap out? [Or is that possible on a rooted phone?
Going in circles here other wise.
Thanks in advance.
I have a botched CWM install attempt and i am at the same screen whenever i turn on the phone. I am going to flash using RSD and see if that recovers it. Ill post once i find out.
Got tired of going in circles, found the OEM ATT stuff, used RSD lite, and installed the SBF
Now I'm back to normal, bloat and all.

I read the NooB guide here on XDA and there are links to get the needed files: RSD Lite, and the AT&T OEM Gingerbread & current firmware SBF file.
I pulled the battery to recover my phone, then fully charged it up.
Made sure it was in USB debug mode.
Then did the Hardware Reset again.
When it stopped at "failed to boot 2. starting rsd mode" I started RSD lite on my PC, Pointed it at the SBF file, and installed.
It took some time, maybe 5~12 minutes?
But it rebooted a few times and I was good to go.
To test it I did several hardware resets, All A Ok.
Peace here till they get Cyanogen stable

Here is what little I know:
Put the Atrix in USB debugging mode.
Connect the phone to the USB cable, and the PC.
Change the USB mode to none.
Click OK
Start RSDlite, then it should see your phone.
And if you have a None US AT&T phone you will need that providers OEM SBF file.
Next move for me is unlocking the boot loader.
I used Pete's Motorola Tools for rooting.

[Q] Tried to install Greyblur, now my Atrix 4g is stuck at the boot screen

So, I followed everything the briefmobile guide that was linked to from the greyblur xda page.
It said it installed, so I rebooted my Atrix and never made it past the "Dual Core Technology" boot screen.
I went into fastboot, then recovery mode (android guy by the triangle with the "!" in it). I reset the phone. Didn't work.
It was running 2.3.4.
I've read something about romracer, but I don't know what that is, where to download it, or how to use it. Please explain in depth if it is relevant.
Please help me. I just got this phone (my first smartphone) today and was really excited to start messing around with Android. I'm probably going to be too nervous to do anything for a while after this. I just want the stock os back. Anything that could get my phone back to where it was is GREATLY appreciated.
There is a one click batch script created by Alaq to revert phones back to stock 2.3.4. Here is the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421522
If you are not sure how to get into fastboot here is how:
1. Turn off your device.
2. Hold down the power button and downward volume button until you see “Fastboot” on your screen.
3. Push the upward volume button.
Greyblur is only for froyo ROMS. That's why you have a nonbooting phone.

That only happens when your phones bootloader isn't unlocked. I assumed it was since you tried flashing a custom rom. You are going to have to flash a sbf file. Here is the link to the instructions.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072
You can find the 2.3.4 sbf file here:
http://www.fileserve.com/file/6TxJg...OLE-26-release-keys-signed-MERetail-06.sbf.gz
Or you can try the 2.3.6 update found here:
http://atrix.tk/4.5.141/
You are going to need to extract the file from the archive so you will need a zip program. I would go with winrar or 7-zip.
Also there is a newer version of rsd lite out than the one posted on the how to. Here is the link

This should get you running again. Good luck.

You're sure that if I flash this it won't get bricked further? SBF is firmware, right? I meant my phone was running OS 2.3.4.
I can't get get into rsd or fastboot now. All it says is
Failed to boot 4
Starting RSD mode.
I plugged that into my computer, it recognized my Atrix as SE Flash Olympus, instead of NS flash olympus, so I tried to flash it anyways and it failed.
Please guys. I'm getting desperate here. Please tell me I don't have a $250 paper weight.
If it says "Starting RSD mode," then you're in RSD mode -- that's okay.
RSD Lite also recognized my phone as "SE" instead of "NS." Not sure why, but it didn't harm anything.
Sometimes the flashing process fails with RSD Lite. (Do NOT EVER unplug your phone in the middle of a flash, by the way.) Which SBF did you try to flash?

2.3.4, what my phone was originally running.
Okay, good. Don't try any earlier SBF versions; that's the guaranteed way to brick your phone. (You're not hard bricked until it says "Failed to boot, entering NVFlash" -- if you have any other options, it's possible to pull it back.)
Try to flash the 2.3.4 SBF again. I've heard of some people having to try a couple of times before it takes; RSD Lite can be finicky.
I think the most immediately pressing issue would be your battery's charge, because it can't charge if it can't boot. If the program errors out with "Battery too low to flash", you may need to pick up an external charger and/or ask someone nicely at an at&t store to charge your battery in one of theirs.

Ok. So I'll try flashing it a couple more times. My battery should have a decent charge still, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Thanks.
I really need to just calm down and stop loosing my head over this.
UPDATE: When the flash fails, the phone's screen reads:
Failed to Boot 4
Starting RSD Mode
sec_exception: febe, 35, 35
RSD Lite also says
Flashing failed process. Phone did not re-ennumerate after RAM downloader was sent (0x703e).
What does this mean?
Hmm. I'll admit I don't know what that means, so all I can do is help you troubleshoot.
I did some searching, and another user hit this problem when using a USB port on the front of his PC (which is not powered as strongly as one on the back). Did I mention RSD Lite is a finicky beast?
If you're on a desktop machine, try switching to a USB port at the back. If you're on a laptop, try a different port. I'll keep looking for anyone with a similar problem.
EDIT: One last question. You extracted the file before flashing, right? The extension is .sbf, not sbf.gz?
Hmmm... Yeah, I guess all I can do is keep looking.
My battery is now too low to flash, and I don't have a friend who has an Atrix.
I might just sent this into mobiletechvideo's debricking service. This is my first android phone and I'd rather not mess it up anymore.
Yes, it's an SBF file.
Fair enough. Sorry this wound up being a pain. I know full well that sick feeling when you think something's messed up, but your phone is still only in a "soft brick" at this stage and can be recovered.
Keep in mind these things really can be modded safely, but you have to do a LOT of reading at the outset, and stick with roms made very recently. (Last August? ancient history.) It's an interesting technology intersection; these things are proper computers which should be readily customizable, but they're also phones which tend to be locked down by the manufacturer/carrier. By analogy, I can wipe my computer's hard drive and install XP if I want, even though I'm currently on W7. But if I try to install an earlier Android version on my phone, it bricks.
anyway, good luck with getting your phone up and running again.
Thanks. I actually did a decent amount of reading before I got this phone, but it seems I'm more of a kinesthetic kind of learner. I probably should have gotten an older, cheaper phone to play around with before I went all out and got an Atrix.
It really is an interesting intersection. It's too bad the manufactures feel the need to put any restrictions on.
I guess I'll just read some more n00b guides and try again when I have a little more confidence. $50 doesn't seem so bad to get the phone debricked compared to the $250 I payed for it. I don't really have a choice either, since the only means of charging it is thirty miles away at the nearest AT&T store.
Anyways, thanks for helping me troubleshoot. Hit me up if you have any problems. I'd be happy to dig around in the forums and see if I can find anything.
You could have avoided all these problems if you had read the entire thread about greyblur, because it specifically states that it is only for froyo phones. But, as many say, you live and you learn, then you aren't a noob anymore.
Also, if you have warranty on your phone, you can send it in and Motorola should fix it for you from what I've heard.

[Q] Urgent Help: Bricked Droid Razr with Locked Fastboot ... Any Solution?

Before some of you gets upset with me posting the same kind of question, please know that I looked at the forum everywhere plus some other forums and tried almost everything. Here's the summary.
I recently got Droid Razr Asia version and I upgraded to EU Retail rom n rooted it.
There was one problem that I noticed that only bluetooth was not working.
Checked online, and found out that it's the radio mismatch b/w EU and Asia version.
So I downloaded RAZRX rom and was trying to flash it again with bootstrap.
So the process started and in 10 seconds it failed.
So I tried to search other forums ...
at some place i found that ... after Hard Resetting, clearing catche; I am also supposed to format the system.
So I followed the whole procedure, and turns out that again it does not get FLASHED. So I downloaded the ASIA version again and tried to format. It did not work. I tried with EU version, it did not work.
So after getting tired, I tried with RSDLite to flash through PC.
That's when I found out that ...
It detects the phone ... but the phone has no EMEI, software version or any other details. Everything is n/a.
Still I tried, and it said "fastboot installation failed" or somethin like that.
And now my phone is stuck on red motorola logo.
I tried to power off and go to bootloader fastboot ...
and it says "Fastboot Locked ... Press power button to power down."
I tried with the DroidRazrUtility1.4 also ...
But it does not detect the phone.
I tried other few things I found online. But nothing worked.
I also drained the battery by keeping it aside to see if the fastboot gets unlocked, but it didn't work.
However, I haven't removed the battery yet. Cause I do not have the tools.
Please can somebody tell me step by step approach how to do this?
Because I haven't found out where I am going wrong in the given methods. and btw, I have followed everything exactly step by step.
Really appreciate any kind of help.
Thank you very much.

Probably not. I read on one of the forums there might be a way around the battery being low. I think it was here in xda. Do a search for fast boot install or battery, something like that. If you find that doesn't work you would have to make the tbh cable which allows power to the phone without a battery, or in your case a near dead battery.
Sent from my Droid Razr using Tapatalk
"Device is locked" is natural, (almost) all of our bootloaders are locked. Nothing to do with flashing official ROMs.
You'll need to make a factory cable if the battery is low, search the development forum for a guide.

[Q] droid x2/milestone x2 is freezing on doal core startup screen

My droid x2 freezes on the dual core start up screen every time i try to turn it on, i pulled the battery out the first time this happened, and I've already went into recovery mode and did the (wipe data/factory reset) option, and i also wiped my cache partition, but still my phone freezes on boot. my phone started doing this when i was using "mcTweaker" and a notification popped up and it said i need to reboot, but as the same time i hit reboot system in the options menu. when i did this the phone cut off and since then it always freezes on the dual core screen when i start it up. i am also still on the stock rom and am rooted. any help or tips on how to fix this is highly appreciated.
if you can still can get to recovery, and have a backup, restore it
as you have wiped data, that is unlikely, unless you flashed re-recovery
sbf is your last option

Ok my bad, i feel lyk such a noob... i just wasnt waiting long enough for the starting RSD protocol support thing. Problem solved
great, just don't flash wrong sbf
Droid x2 and Milestone x2 have different sbfs, because they are different devices, different radios
ok for some reason it stays on the (Starting RSD Protocol Support) screen and never advances onto anything else D: is there a fix for this or is my completely screwed. i thought since the thread i read said it takes 3-5 minutes to start it up thats what my problem was, but i was wrong, the thing just simply wont start up... sorry for false assumption
yes that's it "Starting RSD Protocol Support"
is all is does, till you start rsd lite, doesn't change till half way through sbf or more
Ok thank you sooo much, this was frustrating me since last friday and i think the rsd lite i had was the problem, i went and downloaded a different one and now its working ... once again thanks for your help, ill get back to ya if i mess anything else up haha

now when i try to do it it says (error switching phone to BP Pass through mode) idk what to do or why its doing this
its a driver issue
a couple of options
use the moto drivers program
or ezSBF for x2, no drivers needed
both in my list of stuff
sd_shadow's list of links for Droid FAQs, SBF, Rooting, ROMs.... https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Goawxdx_UBF4Y8lqzHYWf8Ha3yUcRK4faq0UWIlXLWA/edit
also the fix for the d2 was
" Note: Under certain circumstances (especially when using Windows Vista and Windows 7) there might be a problem with not all device drivers being installed correctly. In such case, the flashing process will abort, and your phone won't be able to boot normally. RSDLite shows the following error message:
Error switching phone to BP Pass through mode
To get around this issue, once you get a Device driver could not be installed message from Windows, don't close RSDLite nor power off the phone. Start Motorola Driver Installer once again, and let it finish. Then if RSDLite didn't timeout yet, head to Device Manager, find the Unknown device, and in its properties' Driver tab click Update driver…. It should now install normally. If RSDLite timed out and you got an error from it, just repeat the SBF process. The driver should now be present, and the flashing process will finish normally.
Once the flashing process is complete, RSDLite will tell you to “power the phone up manually”. In most cases you won't be able to do this straight as instructed: the phone will be bootlooping. Take the battery out, and then place it back in. Press the lock/power button: the phone should boot normally. Close RSDLite. Disregard the warning about flashing not being completed since your phone has already booted into Android.
In case you still get bootloops after pulling the battery, wipe data in Android Recovery. "

alrighty im bout to try that, but if that doesnt work is it the last option for me... and if i brought it back to the store would they fix it?
unlikely that verizon would fix, rooting voids warranty
they may replace, if you tell them you don't know what happened
if you bought insurance, that will cover it
