[q]am i stuck in fastboot with a dead battery or what??? - Motorola Droid RAZR

HELLO GUYS, I need Help BAD! First off my Razr was going dead. It said battery to low to boot. I connected a external battery to it to charge it then I left it for a while. I don't know exactly what happened but I went into the Utility screen. I have been on it before per Forum directions to go to recovery and delete the cache. I was scrolling down and I accidentally clicked the up key to go up to recovery and clicked up on AP Fast Boot. Now My Razr is stuck in what I think is called a Boot Loop. The Motorola symbols just keeps popping up over and over. I can go back into the Utility screen I tried to go into recovery but the Motorola symbols just pops back up OVER AND OVER. I have the Razr plugged to the factory moto plug but a white light comes on and no charging screen pops up. I don't believe it charging. The battery feels Hot but when I go back into the AP Fastboot screen it says Battery Low. I may just need to leave it on there longer or it may not charge I don't know. I am AMATEUR.I am rooted per Forum instructions with Razr Blade utility. ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. I have no clue what to do and the more stuff I try I think Im screwing more up. When I go to AP Fast Boot it says battery low but when I plug it up it a white light on the front comes on the Moto Logo keeps popping up over and over. It wont go to recovery. I tried going to BP TOOLS, that done nothing. WHAT DO I DO??? I just want it to boot up. The only back ups I have are on my Ext SD card and thats just of the apps, contacts and I think theme. (Backed up per Titanium and ROM Toolbox) Do I need to make an Ins claim with Verizon Thanks Jason
#1 Am I stuck in Fastboot?
#2 If so am I stuck bc the battery is dead?
#3 If I get the battery charged will I be able to just choose Normal Boot and the Razr will Boot Up?
#4 If so How do I ensure its charging? I read on another site plugging it to the factory charge while stuck in fast boot will still charge the Razr (slow)
5# If none of the above, What in the World have I done and how do I get out of it?

Just adding to my Nightmare
I read somewhere I needed to connect my Razr to a PC and Update the Drivers. I went back into FastBoot, used my factory USB cable and plugged it to the PC. The driver started updating (it even said the name of the driver) I stood up and knocked my Razr off the desk. The driver failed to update. Then I hooked it back to the PC and the Drivers Failed. I hooked it to 2 other USB ports they All Failed. It keeps saying unrecognizable device. I rebooted the PC in hopes that when I hooked the Razr back up to the PC it would start to update the drivers. Now I if I hook the Razr to the Factory plug (it gets Hot) I go to the Utility Screen then to Fastboot and it still says Battery Low. I unplug it from the charger to hook it to the PC and it Blinks OFF and does NOTHING when I hook it the PC. My Razr is Factory other than the Razr Blade Root. Stock ROM and Everything. Any Help would be Greatly Appreciated, I am a NOOB so Detailed instructions would definitely increase my chances for success. Thanks Jason T.

I had this problem some months ago! mine came because of installing a rom with low battery (bad idea always...) the rom did not get installed properly, so the phone couldnt boot up, neither charge. As it was at low battery it also couldnt go fastboot to recover the stock system. I found somewhere a post (i dont remember now, but search for it, you may find) where a guy gave instructions for charging the battery by opening the phone and connecting the battery directly to the positive and negative terminal of an usb cable. This may sound too difficult, but once I had connected the battery I could go fastboot and reinstall the stock system.
Ask me if you cant find the post. It worked for me!! good luck

I found it, Charged it and I'm STILL in a Boot Loop. I won't boot to recovery or normal boot up. I'm STUCK BRICKED

You will have to download the fastboot files for your device. Flash them via RSD Lite.
Make sure you have a lot of charge before flashing the files.
FastBoot files:- http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_spyder/list.php
RSD Lite v5.7:- http://www.mediafire.com/download/6c7krihb3ggj88g/RSDLite5.7.rar
Motohelper drivers:- http://www.mediafire.com/download/t3tfh3p2xcy2861/MotoHelper_2.1.40_Driver_5.5.0.exe
Install the drivers and RSD Lite. Open RSD Lite and connect your phone via the USB Cable while in AP Fastboot. The software should detect your phone and your device should appear in the list. Then simply open the fastboot files in RSD and flash them. Make sure that the process isn't interrupted.
Hope it helps.

Here ya go. Hope it helps. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2431617

Did I brick the unbrickable phone?

I have been posting (and have had some nice people try to help) in the How to Recover Fascinate from any Brick thread for about a week and can't seem to find a solution. I have also searched the internet high and low looking for a solution with no success. Hopefully someone here has had the same issues and can point me in the right direction.
I rooted the Fascinate using a one click method and was able to get a Titanium backup but could not get into the proper recovery to do a system image. Stupidly, I flashed SP Recovery from within ROM Manager. From that moment on I when the phone is turned on it gets to the "Samsung" screen and locks.
I did my research and found out all I needed to do to fix is install ODIN and reflash the stock ROM again. The problem is that ODIN will not recognize the phone. I start ODIN, pull the phone battery, plug the phone into USB cable, push volume down to get the phone into download mode (Yellow Triangle). I keep getting USB Device Not Recognized errors from Win 7 (64-bit).
I tried installing Heimdall to load the correct drivers but it doesn't see the device either. I can connect my Droid or Droid 2 and Heimdall sees immediately so I know it is not a problem with the software or cable.
I have tried to install the correct USB drivers (even the ones listed on this site). I tried installing Kies and it doesn't see the phone either.
Since the phone is looping at the "Samsung" screen I can't change any settings in the phone as some have suggested. I really do not have any more ideas other that to use this phone as a very expensive door stop. Hopefully, someone here can help. Thanks in advance!!!

Control Panel/ User Account/ User Account Control settings- set to- Never notify- restart computer.
Should recognize phone. Reset to default when done and restart. Windows crap!
Thanks but this setting has always been set to "Never Notify"......any other ideas...please
I don't know nothing about it but the guy said " reset to default and restart (again)??

Followed the directions exactly. I think the OP wanted me to reset to default after I was done flashing. This is so strange....I figure if the people on XDA can't figure this out the phone is doomed.
Have you tried a different USB plug on the computer? Or a different USB cord? Or a different computer?

I had to use a laptop to access my Fascinate because my desktop wouldnt even show it as unrecognized hardware, it was like it didnt even exist... I went in device manager and uninstalled all my usb devices, rebooted with everything but mouse/kb unplugged, installed SDK drivers for Nexus S, rebooted again (probably not needed but better safe than sorry) and I can now Odin into my phone... Hope this helps ya man... sucks bricking a phone
The Heimdall drivers won't work. Kies won't recognize it if it won't boot. There should be an option in Kies to install the driver. Drop down box in the top left corner. Did you try to install your driver that way?
have you installed the driver yet? samsung driver?

[Q] Bricked XT910 (totally)

Hello, I tried to search a lot, but I can't find any solution for this problem.
My friend gave me this phone (XT910 M0C2E) and says, that he somehow deleted system and the phone is now unable to boot. I tried a lot, but can't find anything, that could help me. When I tried to power the device it just show red moto dual core logo and then black screen. He also says me, that previous owner installed MIUI rom.
I charged the phone, using lipol charger direct to the battery, so this is not the problem.
but the main problem is that the phone can't connect in the AP Fastboot method. It says:
Code:
AP Fastboot Flash Mode
0A.74
eMMC Info: Size 16G
bla bla...
Device is LOCKED. Status code:0
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
But when I connect the cable nothing happend, computer did not recognize the phone (no sound, no driver installation, nothing i device window). It is deffinitely in the phone, because I tried more computers and USB cables and if I connect the phone in SBF Mode, phone is recognized and shown RSD Lite.
I also tried to flash this rom (i think it is signed and stock)
SPDREM_U_01.6.7.2-180_SPU-19-TA-11.2_SIGNEuropeAustraliaEMEA_USASPDRICSRTGB_HWp2b_Service1FF_fastboot.xml
through recovery mode from external card, but it says E:signature verification failed.
I'm sorry if somewhere here is sollution, but I tried to search and also for my bad English (from Czech Republic).
I solved it. I must remove battery (remove screws and put it out) for about 1 day, then put it back and go to bootloader. Don't try to power up phone because the usb wont be recognized, again.

Did you installed Motorola Device Drivers before connecting it? This device is not plug n play dude. Do that and let me know. Btw you have to flash that rom with rsd lite, not from sdcard
Hope I've helped

[Q] fastboot, adb, rsd doesnt work on xt910

Hi, i bought a phone from a guy that said the battery is dead.
i bought new battery, installed, phone works (i was happy), and started to charge it, as new battery had 20%.
after a while it showed 30%, but then i noticed it went back to 20%, untill it died with "white light of death".
i hotwired the battery, let it charge to 80%
tried to switch back to wall charger, but again, although it says its charging battary drains, same with usb cable to pc.
i also noticed that battery drains very quick without any charge, so i thought maybe its firmware issue.
i installed every possible driver and rsdlite, but it just wont connect in adb or fastboot mod
i thought usb port in the phone is damaged, but it shows charge when connected, and also in some option in the bootloader it does recognize the phone as mz 600 something, but that doesnt help.
the phone currently have what seems to be stock GB + stock recovery
i tried to get Safe Strap recovery, but it didnt work.
from what i read the only firmware updates (not rom) are via fastboot.
i probably can flash custom rom via the stock recovery, but im not sure if it would help.
did anyone experience something similar?
Hi all,
I have Motorola XT621 Primus, after some playings with it and trying to root and add RTL patching i got a brick.
Now the status is that i have fastboot mode working but bootloader is locked, no recovery working and no ADB working, no boot too.
I tryed many ways to flash or unlock bootloader but nothing works. Any commands like fstboot oem got output like (...)
Is there any way to unlock bootloader via fastboot and flash new rom or it completely bricked?
Thanks!
if you have fastboot you can flash recovery

Just make sure you have a good battery or you will have to get a factory cable if the battery say battery low.

Get the gb firm, unzip it, and flash one by one the archives, if you don't know how, open the .xml and there are the commands, you can do it in linux/windows, i had a similar problem, cannot flash anything, my razr only turns into fastboot by using factory cable, and wired the battery, flashing couple of files,then i did flashed one by one and get error in webtop, but it work, the razr turn on (i did this in linux), then i where able to charge the battery and connect to windows, run the rsd, put another jb firm (had to download 5-6 'till i get the right) and works like a charm.
You need the android sdk tools, the latest fastboot, your drivers and some good luck. :good:
(Sorry my bad english)
By the way, if you get the "battery low" line, it doesn't matter, you need to use the factory cable + the battery wire to charger metod, do it and you'll get the O.K.
I have exactly the same problem.. Can we do something vía stock recovery?

Motorola Droid RAZR became plug n play

Actually i just recovered from an extreme hard bricked Motorola Droid RAZR but there is a little problem.
Things i did to recover:
- I opened it's back and unveiled the two switches to manually recharge phone, this was the only way to get to fasboot in OKAY mode (it served as charger only).
- After that, i connected another USB from the original port which connected the phone to PC (it served as recovery only).
- After that, i used RSDLite to recover the system from the scratch.
Now i can only boot my phone as long as it is connected to power source, NOT PC! However, i can get to boot options using PC which confirms that it is not really plug n play, any way to fix it?
Fixed it myself.

Soft-bricked Razr Maxx (XT910) with broken USB port

Hello,
I recently found my old Droid Razr Maxx again and wanted to know if any of you know a way to restore it to its former glory, so to say.
I jumped into a lake with it after forgetting that it was in my pocket a few years ago and ever since, the data parts of USB have been dead. I continued to use it for some time after the accident, but unfortunately I managed to soft-brick it with no way to re-flash the firmware with RSD Lite.
Connecting a regular USB cable to the device with the battery removed just lights up the white LED, which indicates that it receives power over USB, but not enough to boot. When I use a factory cable, the device boots, which leads me to the conclusion that pin 1 and 4 still work like they should.
The device then gets stuck on the Motorola bootsplash, but I'm able to get into the bootloader, fastboot mode, and stock recovery with the key combos. I already tried to place a few signed .zip's (OTAs) on the SD card and flash them through the stock recovery, but all .zip's I've tried so far fail as they check system files of the current ROM that are supposed to be in place. They just include the incremental update parts anyway, so I don't know if they would help, even if I could install them.
I wrote a small script that executes "fastboot devices" every second, booted into fastboot and tried to connect the USB data pins directly to the lines that go into the motherboard (in case just the port is corroded), but I've had no luck so far, as it doesn't get recognized. I tried to connect to the Test Points near the microUSB port in various combinations, hoping that they are connected to the data pins, but my Razr just reboots in most cases, or does nothing. It still doesn't get recognized.
Does anybody know how I could get a working firmware on the device? :silly:
