Last night I tried skinning my status bar to black using this method. It was late, I was tired, and did not see that you need to be de-odexed to apply this theme. Needless to say, I'm now screwed. It won't boot past the DROID screen. So... what do I do? I tried booting without the SD card but haven't tried anything else. Do/could I just do the power+home key and clear the cache? Is there any easy fix to this where I can salvage anything from the phone? I'm guessing I need to use the SBF, but I've never done that before so I'm looking for that guide. I'm running the official 2.2 OTA and I had rooted it. Could anybody please point me in the right direction?
I did the same thing the other day. Here is how I fixed it.
-Download RSD Lite (credit to MyDroidWorld)
-Install the RSDLite 4.8 program by double clicking on the program.
-Download SBF into a folder.
-Open RSD Lite and find the UNZIPPED SBF
-Put your Motorola Droid X into bootloader. (turn phone off and hold volume down
and the camera button while pressing the power button)
-Click start and sit back.
PS. You need to run RSDLITE as Administrator.
Note: after the flash will need to boot into recovery (hold volume down and the home button) and wipe data and cache.
Link for SBF http://www.multiupload.com/NCBVTV0AU5
I ran into an issues after I did this, it would try to activate though US Cellular. That isnt uncommon. just be sure to restore to thought the phone after you SBF and the go to your keyboard and hit *22807 then ## that should force it verzion. If you have any questions let me know
Thanks for your help. Yeah you probably would've had to update the PRL file as that's just a generic 2.2 OS install. Quick question - would it be a problem if I already wiped the cache and data/factory reset it? I just tried that and it didn't help any. Mostly just a black screen now with the occasional flash to the DROID logo. Am I still good to use the SBF?
Also... did you ever get this resolved? I Googled *22807 because I'd never heard of it before and this is what came up. Does flashing to this SBF always mess up your MEID?
I would assume that you would be ok SBFing it. My friend works for Verizion and that is what she gave me to do.
Hello, i recently bought a xoom (wifi only) and now im in a quite frustrating situation.
When i got it first i flashed CWM recovery and rooted it successfully, it worked all fine for a few days.
yesterday i left the xoom on charger over night and today morning it was stuck on the red M logo saying "Dual Core Technology".
well, my situation is like:
- i can restart the xoom using power + volume up, but every time it stucks on the M logo again
- i can boot into RSD with volume up while starting
- i can boot into fastboot with volume down while starting
- i can NOT boot into recovery, when i try it gets stuck at "Reading ODM fuse: 1"
i reflashed the original ROM from MOTODEV, but the device still behaves the same like before..
normal boot gets stuck at the M logo, recovery gets stuck on Reading ODM fuse: 1, just fastboot working fine (unlocking & flashing works fine)
i also searched for similar problems on the forums, but any promising solution links to filesonic links wich are not working/down
any ideas what i can do now? any help is appreciated
thanks
unlock the bootloader and flash Rogue Recovery v1.3.0
then try to enter cwm
are u on stock? or customrom? and have u tried to lock the bootloader using a customrom? cauz locking the bootloader with customrom = not good
hi, thanks for your reply.
im on stock rom and my bootloader is unlocked. i did relock the bootloader once, but only after flashing the original ROM from MOTODEV to my device, now it is unlocked again.
i first flashed the CWM 3.2.0.0 wich is available as .img via fastboot, but it does not start (Stuck on "Reading ODM Fuse: 1").
now i flashed the recovery.img inside of Rogue Recovery 1.3.0 (since i read in the corresponding thread that it works also this way), but again: Stuck on "Reading ODM Fuse: 1"
Maybe u r 2 quick? Turn on your xoom - if u see the M wait 3 sec then press vol down and then vol up
But as i said wait 3 secs - if u r 2 quick it will stuck at entering recovery
okay, so you flashed a new recovery image (did you verify the images md5-sum?) and without trying to reboot into android you cannot get into recovery? That is really odd.
If so, I suspect that something has really screwed up your internal memory. You might be able to fix it using a factory cable.
Btw: after flashing the recovery image, does the xoom say that it succeeded in writing the recovery image to its memory?
There should be a command to reboot the device to recovery? A function reboot to recovery is possible on eos 1.0 maybe theres a adb or fastboot command 4 that?

after flashing the recovery, i can read
"Flashing StorMgr partition recovery STATUS: done!" on the xoom
the recovery image is fine, and until today i was able to boot into CWM 3.2.0.0
what is the thing with the factory cable?
about the factory cable: seems to be a modified usb-cable with two terminals on the micro-usb end being connected with each other. As far as I read, it should enable you to write to the xooms memory as long as the hardware is still okay, no matter how much you f***ed up your software I haven't had to use yet, though.
@what Unholy said: sure, adb reboot recovery will boot your xoom into recovery, but only if you have a working android running and usb-debugging enabled.
Reading ODM Fuse: 1, according to my information, means that the thing is trying to boot into recovery. Why nothing else shows up: I have no clue.
here is a thread where some us-users had a similar problem. They tried to root their xoom after getting the 4g-upgrade and ended up with the red M-Logo. After some screwing around, they even managed to wreck the fastboot-mode, thus only enabling rsd access. So no help on that side.
What especially bothers me about your problem is that it just appeared on its own. Right before your xoom showed its issues, you weren't flashing anything. Just charging shouldn't cause any of this.
I am beginning to suspect a hardware failure that can naturally be only fixed by motorola. But that's only my current opinion.
If I was you, I would try downloading the files from motorola again, check their md5-sums and then flash those using fastboot using these instructions.
If that still doesn't help, there may be a way to get a .sbf file from motorola for your xoom. That is a file which can be flashed using the windows software rsd-lite, but I haven't used that in a long time and it has been reported to not work really well with the xoom.
Next, I'd research a little on the factory cable thing, but I'd be careful with that.
As a last resort, I'd send the xoom to my dealer. Unluckily, there is a way to determine if you have had your bootloader unlocked, at least as long as fastboot is still working...
About the factory cable - with that cable u can flash your xoom if nothing else is working anymore (adb or cwm)
To build a factory cable u have to tie pin 1 (+) to pin 4 on the micro usb plug
I build one but never used it and hope i will never have to
i did download the original ROM from motodev again, checked the md5, and flashed according to the tutorial posted by llama-power, but the device still wont boot neither the rom nor into recovery.
since its now on 15% battery i think i will let it run out of power and then try to boot again...

does the xoom charge when connected to ac power? I know that other devices (cellphones) wouldn't charge without working os.
However, I do not think that letting the battery run low will help you. Lithium ion batteries should not be low discharged as that will most likely destroy them and lead to a massive risk of explosion upon the next charge. Because of that, devices powered by a lithium ion battery will power down before depleting the battery, the xooms mainboard itself will most likely still be supplied with some power.
If you really want to cut the power supply to the mainboard, you'll have to open the xoom (two screws) and unplug the battery (the connector is held down by another two screws) for a couple of seconds. (here is a teardown of the xoom with pictures)
by the way, if you want to track your battery status without booting android (as that would obviously not work), you can use fastboot getvar battery-status.
well my xoom actually charges when i connect it to power, and the LED also lights up, so (thinking of what you said) it seems like the os and everything still is present, just like the bootloader cant load it or something?! is there maybe any way to update the bootloader itself?
yeah, i can also check the battery status when i'm booting with power and volume up (RSD) =)
well i'm actually thinking about disconnecting the battery, but i'm a bit unsure, i will study that now..

not neccessarily. Maybe the xoom just doesn't need any software to charge the battery.

don't know, but since fastboot works I suspect that the bootloader itself is still fine.

have fun, but I wouldn't get my hopes up too high. I still suspect some sort of a hardware failure... Also, opening the device might leave some traces (botched screws, etc) that could lead motorola to say that you messed with your xoom if you should finally decide to send it in
well thats the same i thought about opening the device..

nope, not without a working recovery.
fastboot erase partition_name should be able to clear your partitions, though. Replace partition_name with boot, system, userdata, cache or recovery
http://www.xoomforums.com/forum/xoo...ery-stuck-red-m-logo-fastboot-works-help.html
apparently that user seems to have had the same problem, he says he fixed it using 1.35 Everest Bootloader (SBF).
i also had that idea some time earlier and found a thread with the SBF files here on xda, also for the wifi model, but the only links i could find to SBF files were filesonic links wich are not working ._.
i'm now up to googling for SBF files (for the wifi only model), if i cant find anything promising i'll send it back tomorrow.
btw, erasing the partitions does not help, i've already tried that

he's got an wifi-only model (as stated in post #1) and is from germany (at least that's what his location and flag says). LTE upgrade is neither available in germany, nor for wifi-only-xooms. So I'd say no
@OP: that sounds quite promising. .sbf-files still seem to be available on some sites, downloading one for my xoom right now, just in case that site goes down in the future...
Yes he got the wifi version like me but something must happened ,-)
I also charge my xoom and nothing happens. He got wifi version but he maybe flashed a false update or so
There r people flashing stingray instead of the wingray version etc. - just asking what happened before - thats the reason - something must happened before ;-)
it seemed promising, but i cannot find any usable sbf file
i think i'll send the unit back tomorrow
Looked around a lot and found no solution so here it goes.
I was trying to update to KitKat and at the Pwr Volume- screen I mistakingly hit the wipe data. I wasn't on a custom ROM before, I used the clockwork mod app to install TWRP. Now I'm stuck on the screen where it says This Device is Unlocked and won't do anything else. I've tried every restart button combo but it always goes back to that screen. Can anyone help me out please or is this a lost cause.
Also the computer does not recognize it since it won't get past the opening screen and fastboot/adb wont do anything either
Wipe data in bootloader mode when unlocked = bricked for good unless you have nvflash backups
Or, if you can get back into bootloader mode, follow busters method to unbrick

Don't have NVFlash backups and I cant get to the boot loader so I guess I'm boned. Was good while it lasted, was running slow towards the end so I guess it was about that time lol

what did you do to get into this predicament?
are you locked or unlocked?
if locked, what was your system version prior to the issue?

Same issue for me after OTA. Just processed the OTA as normal and phone will not climb out of the Red M loop. Non rooted, locked device. Attempted to utilize RSD with a few flash files and no luck. Very inexperienced with this. Sorry to be so dense, just looking for any direction possible.

i wish i could help you but without knowing exactly what the ota flashed before failing, any advice i give has the real possibility of making your phone worse or possibly perma bricked. the problem is you are locked and we dont yet have a fxz for kk.
that being said, if you still want to try and fix it against my advice i will tell you what to try but I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF THIS BRICKS YOUR PHONE OR MAKES IT WORSE IN ANY WAY.
download this xml file http://www.mediafire.com/view/p217akcxwmijcr7/VZW_XT926_4.1.2_9.8.1Q_62_VQW_MR-2_VQW_CFC_DOWN.xml
download the 9.30.1 ota from sbf droid devs
extract it to a folder and DELETE the xml file, then copy the one above into the folder
make sure you have the latest rsd, i think its 6.1.5 (not positive)
load the xml file into rsd and flash as usual
if this does not work, there is no way to fix your phone until the kk fxz is leaked, assuming this doesnt make it worse.
6.1.6 is the newest RSDLite I've seen.
Go here if you haven't applied the OTA yet and your bootloader is locked.
http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/topic/45494-how-to-xt926-upgrade-to-kitkat-ota/
If you have applied the OTA and you're locked, don't do it. You'll have to wait for the FXZ to come out. Otherwise, it will brick even further.
If you have applied the OTA AND your bootloader is UNLOCKED, then you can use the tool to flash back to stock 9.30.1.
I too am bricked. unrooted and locked. Ran the ota and when it reset, it now hangs at the red M. Can get into fast boot and recovery. Tried factory restore and wipe cache. Once I did that my phone now randomly boots to andy all opened up, waiting for me to press the buttons to go into recovery. If I leave it like that, it just reboots after a time and does it all over again . I'm going to assume the only way forward is the xfz file? Any body have an idea of when that might become available and where about I can pick it up? I.E. which forum might have it and will it be a new thread?

This has been posted many times. When installing the OTA manually via recovery, a few things happen:
The first time you apply the OTA in recovery, it replaces the recovery with a new recovery and reboots the phone. This new recovery requires a new key combo to get into it. The new key combo is vol-up + power.
So, after you attempt to apply the OTA the first time, you need to be around so when it reboots into the Andy screen, you can use the new key combo. Otherwise, if you leave it alone, it will reboot and then you'll see the red Moto logo which means you'll have to reboot the phone and then hold vol-up + power to get the boot menu and select "Recovery" and then go to the next step.
After getting back into the new recovery, you must apply the OTA again so it can continue to upgrade your phone. After this, you'll be upgraded to Kit Kit.

Right. By reading your earlier posts instructions I got into recovery. That is how I was able to factory reset and wipe cache. I'm talking about AFTER I did all that, instead of just being hung at red m screen, it hangs for a few seconds, then flickers, hangs a few more seconds, and then goes into andy screen. If I don't touch it for a few minutes, it reboots, and that same process starts over, ending with the andy screen again...Its like it WANTS me to be in recovery to fix it .
I noticed you also said to others that us lot are pretty much screwed until the fxz file is out, which I assume is this OTA as a zip so we can flash with recovery? Any idea when that will be coming out? and where should I look for it once its out?
Heck, because I was unrooted and locked and it was the official OTA from verizon, maybe I should go in to them and demand they replace my phone with the moto x. Though, I rather liked my razr hd and don't quite wanna give up on it...

No, the FXZ is the full kit-kat image, not an update like the OTA. The FXZ can be used to flash your phone back to full stock, whether you are locked or not. If you are locked, then you can only flash the version that is currently on your phone or newer. You cannot flash back to a previous version unless your bootloader is unlocked.
The ota is used to only update a previous version to the current version, in this case from JB to KK, but once it's applied, you cannot apply it again since you are already upgraded to that version. It's only an upgrade, not a full image like an FXZ.

I see, makes sense. Every days a school day I suppose. Thanks for the info. Guess I have to decide to either wait for the FXZ or go to verizon and see if they can get me a new phone.
Same thing happened to my wife, completely stock now stuck at red m. After calling verizon they suggested the factory reset which just gives you a boot to dead android guy to get into recovery on every boot. Then after a couple minutes just reboots and does the same thing, stuck in a loop. They then said it's not their software, rather Motorola's, so Verizon's only recourse is to sell me an overpriced refurb or upgrade to the edge plan. Screw them. I said unacceptable and they gave me a number for Motorola. Moto said that they put in a request to extend my factory warranty because it was the software update that caused the issue and they will let me know tomorrow. I understand stuff happens, but this is not acceptable when their harassing update causes thee issue. I knew I should've unlocked the boot loader on it when I had the chance.

Then you're almost there. At the "dead android" screen, press and hold vol up and then press power and then release both buttons. This gets you into recovery.
At this point, reinstall the OTA via the recovery so it can start into the 2nd stage and then you'll be done.

Did you download it to your phone? If so, it needs to be on your external SD card and you choose the option to install from there. You'll have to navigate to where you stored it on the external SD card.
If you didn't download it, then you should be able to push it via ADB PUSH when in the recovery. Just hook up your phone to your PC and do it that way. Just obtain the OTA from this thread. Somewhere, someone provided a link to it. Download it to your PC and then do an adb push to the external SD card of the OTA and then install it that way.

Thanks for the tips. I must have done something wrong when I installed adb, I could not see the phone with the adb devices command, yet I could see the phone in the Matt utility as well as in RSD Lite. I'll give it a shot again, can't hurt. Called Moto and they escalated it and are sending me a replacement device.
So I've had my htc one s for about 2 years or so now and this problem has started happening rather recently. No matter what I try, I cannot access the recovery menu.
I've tried:
1.Hardware Keys (Going into bootloader and trying the recovery from there) = no go.
2.App that would allow me to reboot to recovery = no go
3.Installing another recovery to see if that would help = no go
I've also tried the method of erasing the cache through fastboot to no avail.
I'm currently running a really outdated version of cyanogenmod (10.1 i believe) and my phone is now currently stuck at the beginning trying to boot up.
I'm not sure what else I can try. Oh and another thing. It seems like when I tried to install another recovery image, it didn't overwrite what was already there and so now I believe that my phone currently has to recovery menus.
I've already searched through the forums looking for help and while some of the threads that I found came close, none of them except for the erasing of the cache one came close to helping me figure out what was going on.
Please help.

You can get into bootloader, so just relock it and run an RUU.
Then you can go through the steps of unlocking, installing a recovery and ROM again.

Ah ok, I'm going to try that. The problem now is that my phone won't boot up and my volume down button doesn't work. It just stays at the portion of boot up with the cyanogenmod logo. I guess my only option now is wait until my phone dies for it to turn off since it won't stay off by simply shutting it down.

If you mean your volume down is physically broken, then yikes you might be in trouble. Might have to watch a video on youtube to learn to take it apart and fix/clean the rocker contact.
If you mean it isn't working because of the boot loop, ok. If you hold power down for like 10 seconds it should reset and then you hold down volume down to get to bootloader.
