hello, i am a newcomer to android, recently bought a droid razr xt910 off kijiji.
it worked fine but had the latam rom so i couldnt get updates past 2.3.5. So i tried changing to eu using this tutorial vid by razr guy on how to unbrick/ upgrade/ downgrade your razr
however during the setup with the .bat file it said infopreflash validation failure After it finished it ended up boting to the ap fastboot screen. now every boot option and menu leads to it.
i need a fix soon or the phone will run out of charge.
id greatly appreciate it if someone could help me, please
the clock is ticking

I tried searching but since I'm very new to this forum I have no idea where to look. Anyway I went to update the ROM file on my droid x and in the process have managed to mess it up real bad. I'm trying to set my phone back to its out of the box state and I'm not quite sure how to do so. Any help at this point would be greatly appreciated and if there is a thread already containing this issue just show me the way. thanks in advance.
wow 30 views and no help? bummer.
It would help to know what exactly is wrong with the phone
i tried to update it from an older version of the fission rom to the most recent and in the process it said my multi touch keyboard stopped working in the process so i couldn't type anything at all. so after that i figured i should just revert it back to factory settings with the motorola rsd lite program. now its stuck at the bootloader screen with this text.
Bootloader
30.03
Err:A5,70,70,00,1F
MEM_MAP Blank
Service Req'd
Battery OK
OK to Program
Transfer Mode:
USB
And it won't go anywhere from there. It's been like this for at least an hour now. Please tell me there is a way to fix this. Hope this helps a little more.
try to post this stuff in the Droid X forum, you will get more help and also did you try flashing a stock rom, also can you access the recovery
no luck on accessing recovery. its just stuck on that screen for now. i'll try those forums. thanks.
You probably need to use a diff sbf file
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
any clue to where i can find one for say 2.2? or should i just stick to 2.1?
My Droid 1 is stuck in the boot cycle, it crashes on the little red eye and reboots and begins the process again. I have backed up my stock rom but each time I try to load it from boot loader I get a "signature verification failed" error. What can I do to fix this. Thanks in advance to all those who help..
What were you trying to do that made it crash?
I installed a battery icon mod that I found on this site. Stupid...I know. Any thoughts? I am researching how to unbrick a droid right now, am I on the right path?
I just thought I would give everyone a quick updated. After several terrifying hours I was able to recover my droid with the Unroot/Unbrick any phone method found at droidforums.
So now my question is, now that I’m back up I currently have android 2.0, build ESD20 on my phone, any idea how long it will take before Verizon brings me back up to 2.2.1? Or is there a better way to do this?
You could try searching around for a rom on this site, but you would have to root your phone. Look in here for a rom that suits your needs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=671

i got a chinese version of razr v(xt885) and now it simply cant boot (always stuck in the M picture) so i need to flash it
here i got several questions that not quite sure of
1. i already got it rooted using a batch file through adb but i find it unable to receive official ota update, so how can i just flash it to the factory state, i mean i want everything the same when i bought it. yes i got a official zip file, but what should i do to totally reset the phone? just get into the boot mode and connect the RSDlite and reflash it?
2. i want to flash the australian retail rom to use Google service。will there be any problem in the process?
3. i did some study on how to flash it using RSDlite. in many instructions people suggest you need to double wipe your phone. so why and when you need to do this?
4. since you cant remove the battery in xt885 so if you just stuck in the M logo when booting i will stay there untill battery worn up so will it be a problem while flashing?
i m a absolute newbie so any help will be appreciated! good day!

Hi guys. First, trust me that I have looked at every post I could find regarding this issue and the reason I am starting a new thread it because the fixes are not working for me. First, my phone:
Droid Razr HD Dev Edition, I believe it's the T926, though it doesn't boot now so.....
I had rooted this phone with the Droid Razr HD Utility 1.1. I had it running on T-Mobile fine for quite some time (only HSA speed or whatever they call it, but that's fine I'm out of range for anything better anyway). I had Superuser installed and something like root keeper I think it was called. Anyway my point is everything worked great.
I started getting this popup that seemed to say Motorola wanted to do an update. Now I had ignored the update on my phone for a while as I didn't want to go through the process just yet. Finally I gave in and I let the Motorola from my Windows PC try to push an update. That was the last my phone has booted.
So now all I get is Fastboot. Now if I do the buttons and manually go to fastboot it looks normal and I connect USB and it looks fine. But if I try to run the HD Utility 1.10, 1.20 both fail, RSDLite 5.6 and 6.0 both fail. All I can come up with is No valid PIV block in sp for system. The phone does seem to respond when I try the utility but all I get is failures and it clearly says the phone is locked. RSDLite has no such luck and immediately fails.
I still have the original XT926 xml I used and I also downloaded a VZW_XT926. I'm really SOL here guys and I would so appreciate any help.
I guess the last bit of info I can think to add is that when I plug USB in fresh what looks like Motorola software (what messed me up to begin with) pops up and tells me it wants to repair the phone. Of course like an idiot I've tried that as well.
My guesses are; you are using an outdated utility, outdated fastboot files, outdated RSD lite (there is 6.1 and higher out) and/or your system is corrupted. So make sure all of your tools and files are up to date and report back if you get any further.
Were you on ICS or JB before the update nag? Pretty sure if you were on Jellybean you will have to wait for an xml to be released, I remember reading something like this on DroidRzr.com

I was on JB so I'll do some more research on that. I saw a 6.1 for RSD but skipped it due to reg req. I'll hunt it down. How do you update Fastboot? I was just updating Razr HD Utility and letting it do it's thing. I have 1.2 now and it has Fastboot inside. Is that what you mean or am I missing a step?
Thanks for your help.

After Jellybean there needed to be new Fastboot files because of some security change in Android, the newest utility most likely has it. I found this file

If you are still stuck after that I suggest signing up on DroidRzr.com and joining the chatroom, those guys know far more than I!
Just an update that nothing I have tried has worked and I remain bricked. I've updated the DroidRAZR Utility, RSDLite, tried numerous images... still bricked. No valid PIV block in SP for system.

Well I finally got it working. I tried as much as I could find, RSD 6.1.4, Droid RAZR Utility 1.2, many many many images since my original wasn't working. Anyway I'll skip all that didn't work.
My problems got compounded when my battery died. The internet goes on about how bad this is. True to form when I found and tried to manually push an image with fastboot I kept getting errors about the batter. Now this phone is the developers edition and I read somewhere about how you can buy this special cable. Like most of you I have dozens of USB cables and at one point my original was misplaced. Ah, your catching on now aren't you? I went hunting and dug up my original cable and the blasted thing just booted right up. No re-imaging, nothing, just booted right up.
Now I "had" successfully (today) sent a fastboot of a new system.img from the Droid RAZR Utility 1.2 and checking my system I do see that indeed that is the img I am on. So this may have been a two fold rescue.
So in the hopes it helps any other poor sap out there. Here is how I fixed my bricked Droid RAZR HD xt926 that had a near dead battery.
Boot into AP Fastboot
On windows computer, navigated to folder where I had extracted Droid_RAZR_HD_Utility_1.20
fastboot flash system system.img >>This worked
fastboot flash boot boot.img >> this failed
I then dug up my original cable, plugged directly into wall adapter and voila - it booted up!
Unfortunately I think I'm on JB now, but hell at least my phone is working again!
Thanks for the replies, thanks for your hard work tearing these phones down and giving us tools to work with and thanks to the *** *** internet for being so awesome and giving us so much at our finger tips!

I was trying to load a different ROM (running 4.4.2) so I could unlock the bootloader and root and hard bricked my phone with the same error message as a result of a failed flash. Using the fastboot command (fastboot flash system system.img) I was able to load the system.img from VZW_XT907_4.4.2-KDA20.62-15.1_CFC_1FF_SVC.xml and now am booting successfully once again.
Dagroth, you pulled my fat outta the fire! Many thanks. I hope this message helps others.
Hey all,
I apologize if I'm posting something that's already been answered, but I've had no luck in my research so far. My Droid Razr HD XT926 is stuck on the "Dual Core Technologies" screen and I've attempted to reinstall the firmware (gotten here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=5, ver 4.4.2). I attempted to use RSD Lite v5.7 to flash it, but whenever I did I got the "failed flashing process unknown fastboot command getvar" error. So, after removing the "getvar" lines (per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1943884&page=2) and running it again I get this error: "failed flashing process 1/27 flash sbl1 'sbl1.mbn' -> Phone returned FAIL." This is with both 4.4.2 and 4.1.2.
I tried using the utility recommended here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1453660 (redirected from #6 on this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561550) but then I just got the "piv block validation for system failed" error.
I'm new to this process, so there may have been some blatant mistake I could have made that I'm just not sure about. However, if not and if my phone is still salvageable I would greatly appreciate some help.
First off, you'll need to update to the most current RSD. Second, you're getting those fails because you're probably trying to downgrade your firmware. You'll need to find the thread in here for the latest OTA that ends in .15 and flash that.

in addition to what @RikRong said,
is your bootloader unlocked? if you dont know, its likely not.
if not, you cant flash backwards to 4.12 so thats why that failed.
did you update in the last month or so? that will tell us what you need to flash and what options you have. unless you know your exact sysem version, that would be best.
if your unlocked and having these issues, thats bad. if locked, its likely what Rik said, your using the wrong sbf. you can never downgrade.
I tried doing 4.4.2 initially, but the rest I'll try out tonight. Thanks.
I know this is a few days late, and you have probably already solved this. I just wanted to post that I had the same problem and thanks to @RikRong I was able to find the solution on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr-hd/general/fxz-4-4-2-183-46-15-t2873083
