[Q] MZ604 - Lockscreen lock out -- Can't hard reset ... HELP =D - Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First off...
Trying to reset a Xoom MZ604 ...
I can not boot in to recovery menu due to bad Volume Down key.
I can successfully boot into RSD and Fastboot protocol.
Although when I boot into Fastboot to flash new system.img boot.img etc, I can not unlock bootloader to perform these commands due to not being able to change to "I accept" with the Volume down key.
I would like to flash an SBF file but there is only one for the MZ600
Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

if the down button is broken gonna be a no go, looks like you will have to send it to Moto for a repair. Should be covered by warranty.
Lordao
Though if you have it rooted and have clockworkwod installed you can use the clockworkmod menu to boot into recovery.

Short Circuit
Can anyone recommend a method for shorting a circuit on the motherboard?
I have experience with this on a zPad Tegra 2 board.
Thanks in advance.

Wifi Xoom Rooted? RSD mode 3 -- no fastboot, no adb

Hi. I was on #xoom at freenode earlier and I got some help, but unfortunately no solution. (thank you Kas, EbonyGhost, Pyrator and the others)
I flashed the recovery here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1074979
I flashed... THE ZIP!!
The flash went well, then the device rebooted and showed "Starting RSD mode 3"
I have only 2 screens:
- with VolUp + power = dual core techno + "Starting RSD mode 3"
- with VolUp + power then immediately VolDown = only the dual core tech logo, no text
Either way: no adb, no fastboot. Tried other usb slots. Tried reinstalling moto drivers.
The xoom never gets recognised by windows. I don't have the dongdong sound when I plug it, in either mode.
I already tried this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973355
but I get < waiting for device > because it's not recognised by windows...
Any other idea?
Thanks
Regards
Note: I might be away for several days. I'll try everything you say, but maybe I won't be able to post my feedback until monday night (around GMT timezone)
I have this exact problem.
So, when you power up the device, you press 'vol-down' when you see the Motorola logo? Because that should put you into fastboot mode. Don't use the power+vol-up, only turn on device and press vol-down when you see the logo. I've been in the same situation, but was able to get fastboot working like this...
if you hold the volume down button and power on the device and get no fastboot then you may as well just send it to motorola. looks like this is becoming a problem and cannot be fixed.

This. Flashing the wrong partition should *not* mean that you can't get into fastboot any more.
I know that volume down should get me to fastboot but in fact it doesn't. Windows never makes dong dong when i plug the xoom... My drivers are ok because my nexus one gets recognized instantly and adb is working fine on the phone...
Any reason you don't use RSD to flash the wifi xoom sbf file? (I'm pretty sure someone said that was released not too long ago)
I didn't try yet, I can't find the SBF for the wifi xoom.
I tried the 3G SBF file it's not even working. I know it's not the right file for my device but since it's already bricked...
I have RSD Lite 4.9, latest moto drivers, updated using the moto tool.
When I load the sbf file in rsd lite, I can't see the device, and pushing start has no effect.
I did that when the device was showing "Starting RSD mode 3"
How can I get it back?! I tried on my windows laptop and also on a macbook, without any luck.
This is happened to me , and i flipped cuz i rendered my $600 Xoom to a paper weight , i rebooted (Volup+power then voldown) , i tried ADB and it didn't work... then i left my computer to do something, i returned to my PC and i was flipping through DOS command lines (up and down arrows) and click enter in one of the commands by mistake and it worked! the command was "fastboot erase cache"
i then typed the following to return to stock (you need the stock files)
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
Thanks, but I don't have fastboot. It's always < waiting for device >

You mentioned you tried the steps in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=973355, but how did this section go:
"Even though there was no response from the device, I pressed Vol Down + power until the screen went black. I then quickly pressed and held Vol Up + power. The device then went into the bootloader, received the queued command from fastboot, and flashed the boot.img."
ed. The other suggestion I heard floating around is to flash the CDMA Xoom's SBF -- yes, it won't get you all the way there, but it might restore things up to the point where you can get into fastboot and then flash the stock images.
I did try already to fastboot flash boot boot.img (stock), then reboot pushing vol up, vol down, both, using clicking or holding them... no luck
I also tried to flash the VZW SBF file but RSD Lite doesn't even see the device. I'm trying now to get some linux running and use sbf_flash instead because I was told that it's more efficient than the linux one.
No luck yet on that part either.
I was able to get my xoom restore with the following steps:
Hold Power + Vol up to start reboot
immdiately hold Power + Vol down (This will get you to the Fastboot menu)
enter the commands
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
You've now successfully flashed your Xoom back to stock. Now it's time to relock the device.
Type fastboot oem lock, wait for the menu, the press the volume-down button. Then press the volume up button. It'll take a minute or so, then reboot. You're now completely back to stock and ready for the update.

It stops here. I can't get fastboot.
I tried waiting for the battery to die and tried every combination of vol up/down/power, hold/click/double click the buttons...
I'll let it cool off for one day without battery... maybe it'll wake up wanting to give me fastboot...
I'm losing hope...

I'm in the same situation here... tried basically all the same steps. I'm lost too... can't connect with ADB, Fastboot or RSD... tried all kinds of key combos as well. "Starting RSD Mode 3"... its wearing me down!!
How can i change the topic title? I wanted to say "xoom bricked?" but I typed rooted by mistake
I'm in this exact situation, and I've tried everything suggested here. I spent some time in IRC talking to a few developers, and we tried pretty much everything to get fastboot to work. No luck, so I tried RSD like you said, and that didn't work, either. Eventually we gave up, and I got an RMA from Motorola via their website. I should receive the FedEx box tomorrow so I can return it to them.
If you want, I'll report back here when the whole process is over and tell you if they end up fixing it for free or not. It sounds like it'll probably be at least a week, though.
benso87: yes, tell me. I have time don't worry (away from home until may 28th)
Otherwise, I think mine is definitely a brick. I tried the last thing I didn't: boot linux and test sbf_flash: not working.
I'll try to send it to moto (the device is imported).
I'm kinda sad... not for the money, but for the bad command that completely destroys a device in seconds... and right, for the money aswell...
Small update: I got the box yesterday and sent it back, then got an email this morning saying Motorola received it. Hopefully the whole process will go this fast.
They gave me a tracking number and a site to check to see how things are going, so that's more info than I was expecting. They haven't asked any questions yet, so that's also good.

[Q] Need Help Unbricking

I just got a transformer pad tf300t, and i am new to android, and just the other day i managed to brick it. i have searched for hours on end for a way to unbrick it, but all the methods i can find don't match my circumstances. So far all i have managed to do it get it into APX mode (i don't know how), and installed a driver so that in Device Manager it says "Asus Transformer Prime APX Interface". Whenever i do volume up+power button, or volume down+power button on boot, it reboots and returns to the boot screen where it stays forever until the battery goes dead. This all happened after i unlocked the boot loader, attempted to install clockworks, and then the battery went dead while using the wipe system data option in the boot menu (or whatever it's called when you do volume down+power button). Any help would be awesome and i would greatly appreciate it.
EDIT: Just sent an email to ASUS about the problem, and of course they weren't any help and just said i might need new hardware (hopefully not true)
Hi, i've met the same problem.
In fact when i tried to update my TF300T to JellyBean, my device didn't want to boot anymore only in Recovery or on Bootloader. So i tried to update the Recovery with the fastboot and install a TWRP recovery with Fastboot in USB and tried to re-install the ROM (CM 10).
But after that, Recovery and Fastboot did'nt work anymore. I've made a video to illustrate the problem (youtu.be/9aSWZrkP_Ec)
This is like that in Loop untill the device has no battery left.
Sorry for my mistakes, i've got an aproximative english
Thanks for any help.
To the OP, if you can some how push a new boot.blob from a ROM and then push a new system blob from the stock firmware, that fixed it for me. I could get into recovery still though so I used fastboot to do this.

[q] pls heeeeelp, how to donwgrade to ics

Well, I was using the version ics, rooted, and I upgraded to jb via ota, but I had several problems, such as high power consumption and decided to flash the sbf of jb via rsd lite ... That is, besides losing root now I can not go back to ics. how could downgrade? help me please!! thank you
please, help meeeee!!!
asaaaave me!!!!
My battery is suck!!!!!!!! And i disabled all that can drain my battery, incluiding google now!
Would help to know if you're on XT925 or XT926...
If you're on the XT926 you could use Matt's Droid Razr utility. If you're on the XT925 try using a fastboot for ICS.

If you have a XT925 then
Download an RUU rom from the "Firmware SuperThread" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943879
Power down your device
Press and hold the Vol+ and Vol- keys, then press and hold the power button until a white screen appears and you can now release all three buttons.
Use the Vol- key (and ONLY the Vol- key) to scroll through the list. Scroll until “AP Fastboot” is highlighted and press the Vol+ key to select it.
Then unzip the file you downloaded, inside will be a file called "flash_fastboot.bat" Run it.
Should Work.
So guys
thanks for the help, but I had tried it all, that is if I had just updated via ota I could return quietly via rsd or fastboot, but I updated to jb via rsd, no ota ...
So as I tried to go back to ics via rsd or fastboot error appeared preflash, dronwgrade security, and never worked out
I just unlocked the bootloader and lost the warranty :/
And Incredibly, even going back to ics, my battery did not return as before, is very bad, and already I did everything
Not to mention that fastboot is not coming back, it was updated with the jb, and now every time I turn on the phone it connects into fastboot, and then gotta enter the vol -, vol + and power and select Normal power up
Is it still may have left over kernel, or another part of jb on ics?
I've done factory reset, and deleted userdata etc.
There's something very strange now.
---------
Ah
Before unlocking the bootloader I also had tried flashing without flash partition line (. Xml file), and various other modes, fastboot, using the razr hd utility, but nothing worked ... It was really necessary unlock to make a donwgrade ...
and my phone is xt925
I was so happy with the device, then I did sh*t and now I'm super sad

Droid 2 Global Bootloader Missing

Hoping someone here may have some ideas. ..
Picked up a couple Global's the other day on eBay. Two of the three work great. Was able to get them unlocked, rooted, and band unlocked. They are working great on T-mobile! The issue I'm having is with the third one. When I enter the bootloader, I get nothing but a black backlit screen with no writing. When I attempt to use RSD Lite, I can't get it to recognize the phone at all.
So next I tried booting the phone normally, and then hooking it to the PC. RSD Lite does recognize it that way. When I begin the flash process, the phone attempts to reboot into flash mode, screen goes black, same backlit screen with no writing. I would like to point out that I am doing all this with a 5-wire factory cable, so none of the usual button combo mistakes, undercharged battery issues, etc. apply here. If you have on of these, you don't need a battery in the phone at all. With and without battery, with and without factory cable...hasn't mattered, no bootloader no matter what. The issue is that the bootloader acts as if it just isn't even on the phone. I know there are several ways to reload that consumer replacement to a droid 1, but I haven't found anything for a 2. The other thing limiting what I am able to do is that the phone is running .629, which means no root or CWM, so those couple tricks are out the window at this point also, and because of the bootloader issue I am unable to downgrade using RSD Lite or any of the bootable CD options that usually work for phone stuck on .629.
So at this point I'm figuring the phone is just stuck the way it is, but I thought I'd throw it out there and see if any of you guys had any similar experiences. Thanks

Ah Shadow! I was hoping you'd see this. Let me clarify a little bit.
1. I am able to get phone to boot into OS. I did try to install the update.zip already but I'm still having the same problem with the boot loader.
2. I know about the easy sbf, and tried that with this particular phone, but because of the problem with the boot loader when easy sbf or RSD Lite switch the phone, or attempt to switch into flash mode, the computer no longer recognizes the phone.
3. I did think about rooting the phone to try to open up a few other options to at least get around the problem. Since it's on .629 already though I'm limited to rooting using easy sbf as far as I've understood, but again since I'm having the issue with the boot loader that hasn't been an option I have been able to successfully use.
4. The power button on the phone isn't working, so I'm unable to use the key combo to access the boot loader; however, I have a factory cable...now I say factory cable not meaning the stock charging cable...but the 5-wire factory cable. Typically with Motorola phones using this cable you simply remove the battery, and then with no battery in the phone hold down both volume buttons and plug the factory cable in and it automatically reverts to the boot loader.
I know that there is a consumer replacement boot loader for the droid 1 to fix issues like this, but I haven't seen one for the two. The other issue is that the replacement is an sbf file which ill be unable to use, and didn't know if that was something that would exist as an update.zip that could be flashed through the stock recovery
don't need power button

yeah we're on the same page there. When I do that, instead of getting the bootloader like I normally would, I'm just getting a blank black backlit screen, like the boot loader isn't there. Instead of getting bootlader D0.11 ect, It's just a blank screen. It doesn't matter which method I use to access it, both volume buttons and usb, up arrow and usb, whether there is a battery in the phone or not, I'm still getting the same result. If I boot the phone normally, and then try to let RSD switch it for me, it does it, and then I get the same black screen and the flash mode failure error. Like I said there is a consumer replacement bootloader for the 1 that I've been able to use to fix this problem in the past, but if one exists for the two I haven't been able to locate it. So at this point I have a working OS, a working stock recovery, and no boot loader

Yeah I tried that last night. I saw where you were having problems with it too. I had seen where a few months back there was someone else that was having this issue that you were trying to help walk them through, but the thread kinda died off, so I wasn't sure if there was ever a resolution to it. Ok well thanks for your time. I'll be sure to post an update for people coming behind me if I manage to get anywhere with it.

Need help with xoom, possible brick

First,
I really want to thank everyone for their support in this forum. Everyone has been amazing.
I was trying to bring my MZ601 back to stock yesterday. Something bad happened during fastboot and asked me if I wanted to unlock my device. Then the screen locked up and didnt do anything. I rebooted the device and now it gets stuck in a boot loop with the EOS symbol (last rom I installed). When I enter recovery there is nothing there, all of my data is gone.
Worse the device is not recognized on my computer nor can it be found in adb fastboot. I have updated motorola drivers, but I think the device never gets past a certain point in order to be found.
Can somebody please help me.
Thanks,
Pretty impossible to brick XOOM's but i'll ask the basics. Can you get into recovery from a cold boot? Can you get into fastboot from a cold boot?
By the sounds of it you've just corrupted your rom or tried to re-unlock the device which would cause the entire sdcard partition to be erased.
Boot XOOM into Recovery, Fastboot, or RSD mode
So you need to get into Recovery to backup your XOOM (you do nandroid don't you?). Or perhaps you were working on creating new levels of awesome and something happend and you find yourself staring at the Motorola Dual Core boot screen with your XOOM refusing to boot any further. Fear not, you are only a few clicks away from finding your way back into recovery or fastboot goodness.
Turn your XOOM off
Press Power to turn your XOOM back on
When the Motorola Dual Core boot screen appears tap Volume Down repeatedly until "Android Recovery" is displayed
Press Volume Up to enter Recovery
You can also choose from Fastboot protocol support and RSD mode by using the same method but instead selecting their respective menu prompts.
Note:
If your XOOM is caught in bootloops or you find yourself stuck in RSD mode or Fastboot Protocol support you can hardware reboot your XOOM by pressing and holding Volume Up + Power until the tablet reboots (usually a few seconds but could be longer).

Hi,
Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately, it seems that I have caused the entire sd card partition to be erased. That mean when I trry to fastboot my device is not recognized. Also, i cannot add anything to my xoom through usb. I have tried to flash through the external sd card, but to no avail. What do I have to do?
What does your xoom show up as when plugged into your pc APX? Can you boot into fastboot mode. with power off press power and volume down until you see fastboot.

Hi thanks for the reply to my message.
Unfortunately I cannot find my device when it is plugged into my computer (PC). It does not show up on my computer nor in the device manager. I can start the fastboot protocol on my device by rebooting, but I also cannot find my device in ADB.
Thanks for the reply, but I am still very stuck.
are you sure your device is in fastboot ? did you reinstall the drivers, try with another usb cable, adb shoud see the device after the drivers were installed correctly ...

I did everything I have done before. I have setup android sdk, java, and motorola drivers on two different PCs. Both fail to find my device when i type ADB devices nor does ADB reboot bootloader work. I tried the different cable, but that also did not work.
Hi,
I see that your problem is quite hard, try doing this:
1 - Force your tablet to shut down (vol+ + Power)
2 - Turn on while holding the vol- button
3 - Keep pressing vol-
4 - Plug on your PC and try fastboot devices, adb won't work!
5 - If 4 didn't work, keep trying until it does
6 - Install a Stock ROM (so you will solve your problems)
If the above don't work, contact me via PM, so we can talk easily (maybe GTalk or something like this). Good Luck

XxLordxX thank you!!!
I took your advice and just used fastboot. Then I flashed the stock rom I wanted to use. My xoom is back up and running. I really appreciate the tip.
Also thank you to everyone that responded in the post, again, that is why I love coming here.

When the Motorola Dual Core boot screen appears tap Volume Down repeatedly until "Android Recovery" is displayed
Press Volume Up to enter Recovery
You can also choose from Fastboot protocol support and RSD mode by using the same method but instead selecting their respective menu prompts.
Note:
If your XOOM is caught in bootloops or you find yourself stuck in RSD mode or Fastboot Protocol support you can hardware reboot your XOOM by pressing and holding Volume Up + Power until the tablet reboots (usually a few seconds but could be longer).
