[Q] D2G won't SBF

okay guys here's my issue. I was flashing over to liberty and I forgot to wipe everything so as liberty was going through its stuff through bootstrap I pulled the battery hoping to stop the process.
HOWEVER, I am not stuck at the "liberty" logo. I have tried to sbf and I am getting....
failed flashing process: Phone (0000): Phone did not re-enumerate after RAM-downloader was sent. (0x703E) phone was disconnected.
Can someone please help me?

I've seen people have sucess with SBF errors by renaming the SBF file, trying a diff comp, and if ya vista or win7 ya have to be running as Admin. Give any of those a try that ya can while I'm looking over google to see if I can find anything more directly relevant to the errors you are getting.

Luckily I still have my x sitting around. I'm using macbook pro with vmware running windows 7. I have sbfed successfully on my x using the same setup.

I should also note that I tried booting into recovery and wiping data and cache still didn't help.
I do have a backup of stock from that I made. However, I just don't think its possible for me to access that backup to restore?

I'm not sure then. I've looked over quite a few different articles were people have had this problem, and have had it solved, and everytime it was some type of comp issue that was causing it. Some people fixed by changing USB ports, some by reinstalling the Moto RSD software (Also, with RSD, make sure you are using version 4.8 or 4.9), or using a completely different computer or OS. Past that the only other thing I can suggest is make sure you have the correct SBF file, and maybe try re-downloading it incase it somehow got corrupted during the download.
EDIT: Which recovery are you using? The stock recovery, or Clockwork? If ya using stock, then as far as I am aware you don't have the ability to backup/restore.

I am using rsd 4.9. I tried everything you stated except a new computer.
I have droid 2 bootstrapper installed and clockwork. However, whenever I boot into recovery it keeps bringing me to the stock one so I can't restore. If I can figure out how to restore maybe I would be good?
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk

Likely you got far enough into SBF to erase clockwork. Though you can try pulling you battery during boot while its on the moto logo, and if clockwork is still installed it will then boot directly to it.

Yupp nothing. Stuck at the liberty boot logo where it says "liberty"

I donno then. I would try a diff comp and see if that helps. Or maybe someone else will see this thread and have some other ideas. You may could also try posting directly in the SBF thread, maybe someone with more experance with it will see it there? Just a thought.

Thanks for the help.
If anyone else can help I am all ears!

Ok, the bad news...
The first thing Liberty does when installing is format the /system directory. I dont know at what point you pulled the battery but, while you did at one time have bootstrapper and clockwork mod installed, you no longer do. Your only option at this point is to SBF.
I have had, as have others, lots of issues with getting it to go through on Windows 7. It will get to a point where it tries to switch modes (unfortunately I don't recall the name of that mode right now), then it wont find the driver fast enough and fail. If you can get that driver installed when it tries to switch modes, it should work, and cause no problems in the future. The problem for you though, may be even greater given that Windows 7 is bad enough and being run in VMware probably will just compound those issues.
If at all possible, try from a windows XP machine.

OK so im not sure about the Liberty ROM however I have had to SBF when I tried installing Fission 2.4.3 on my D2G.
My process was turning the phone on boot mode. This is done but holding the +- Volume button and then hitting the power button.
Next I got RSDLite 4.9 and lastest drivers from motorola. Next is restart computer! This was important as RSD wasn't finding my phone until I did. Once I restarted ran RSD hooked up the phone in boot mode found the sbf file and hit start. Took about 15 min to finish.
Not sure if this helps.

Rsd is finding my phone no problem right away. I suppose I should try it on a different computer though, one that's running xp.

Do you know what driver your talking about or where to find it?

Okay guys I tried doing it on Windows XP and I am still getting the same exact message it wont' re-enumerate.
I am scared beyond belief right now and don't know what to do. If someone can suggest something I would really appreciate it.

Not sure if this helps, but this is what "my device" info says while in rsd lite...

If you are on Win7 64 then try the drivers in the attached zip file.
It is the BP passthrough mode that fails at the end of the flash because it needs to load a separate interface to flash the baseband radio partition.
That interface is a Motorola Flash device MDM6600 and not the S-Flash OMAP3460 device.
If you are having trouble with the drivers loading during the flash cycle re enumeration then you can try this trick to get them to load.
Turn off the phone and then power on holding the Volume Up + Power.
The phone will boot to the M Logo and just stay there like it is hung.
It is now in BP passthrough mode and will enumerate as a Motorola MDM6600 flash device and Windows will attempt to load those drivers when you connect the USB cable. Point the New Hardware Found wizard to the folder where you extracted the zip and it should load them. If not, you may have to manually force it to load them in the Have Disk dialog.
Now pull the battery and reboot the phone normally and try flashing in RSD Lite again. You will already have the BP passthrough interface drivers loaded now and it should re enumerate and complete the flash of the baseband(CG5) and reboot the phone at the end. Wait at least a minute after it reboots for all the post boot initializations to complete and RSD Lite should eventually say Pass and allow you to disconnect without the error warning about damaging the attached device.
If none of this works, get an XP box and it will all work without any issues 99% of the time.
Good luck!

Okay... So I downloaded the drivers, connected via USB and it did show up as what you said it would. However, I then ran the sbf and it says "The Motorola AP flash interface could not be found and kept failing.
What do I do?

Also, another thing it now says my battery is low. If I just plug it into the wall, will it charge or do I need to USB it? I can't tell if its charging or not

It won't charge in the bootloader until you have software on your phone you need to use another D1 or D2 to charge. Or use an external charger.
If windows isn't working there are ways to flash in linux that usually yield better results.

Atrix 2 is stuck in fastboot mode

Accidently updated my atrix 2 to 2.3.6. I then severely wanted root so I tried to flash back. I kept trying to install rsd lite but kept getting error 2738 when it was almost done installing. I googled for fastboot tools and found one on this forum. When i tried to flash an img, it apparently did not work even though I choose this fastboot tool because it said it was for atrix 2 and had atrix 2 img's with it. Now, my phone is stuck in fastboot mode and my computer can't recognize it.Any tips or help are greatly appreciated.

Did you take out the battery and see if it will reboot?

a lot of times, I did. Jim is doing his best to help me via pm but I have stumbled onto a small yet major issue. EDIT I have fixed this issue and found another. I have rsd lite working on my old, crappy laptop. However the usb port isn't giving my phone enough power to even turn on.It only turns on when charging through the wall.

Atrix 2 stuck in fastboot mode
I update my atrix 2 to 2.3.6. OTA when it was released. I then update my phone to Supercharged V5 update 2. I hated that my phone could not run most games other phones with similar specs can run. I decided to install the drivers for chainfire 3d, the phone then rebooted past the red moto logo onto a blank screen. Ever since that happened i've only been able to boot into fastboot mode. I tried using the modified .xml file, and replacing the boot.img, cdt, device_tree etc. I don't know what else to do, this happened yesterday. This is also a warning to be careful with chainfire3d after update to 2.3.6. I used it before on 2.3.5 and i had no problem with it.

[Q] Need Major Help I Screwed Up

Hey ppl! I messed up my phone and I need some help. I have a G2x and I recently rooted it using the root.zip I found on one of the forum threads here. It worked fine and I flashed over to Eagleblood 2.5 and I didn't notice when I downloaded it that it didn't come with the google apps. I couldn't figure out how to get the google apps back into the phone since market wasn't installed. I tried downloading it but the phone kept telling me I don't have an SD Card being that I don't have an external one yet. Yes, I could have just downloaded it on pc and then transfered market apk via usb but I couldn't find the option to activate usb which was weird. Usually when you plug in your usb cable the driod icon pops up. So instead of flashing back using the backup I made on CWM I used nvflash and then used that LG tool to install V21E_00.kdz to install Gingerbread again. That's where everything messed up. I no longer was getting a cell signal and the battery icon had a ? in it. I assumed that the installation went bad to i did the process again with the nvflash and the V21E_00.kdz file. I got the same results again. I managed to get the wifi working again cause it wouldn't connect and downloaded cm7 7.1.0.1 to see if it would fix the problem. I flashed over and got the same results on cm7. No cell signal and battery icon screwed up. I gave up and did a full wipe and tried to install Gingerbread again. This time my pc wasn't reading my phone anymore when I connected it to the usb to use the LG tool to install V21E_00.kdz. Now my phone is in a cm7 boot cycle. If my phone is broken just tell me so I can dump it. My friend warned me about the G2x and I didnt listen cause I was in a hurry to get a nice phone. Any input and help would be greatly appreciated. If you guys need more info on anything please ask. If I can salvage this hunk o' junk I'm getting rid of it.

This phone is unbrickable damn near, have you tried the rom for recovery in development section? It will low level nvflash your phone to GB OTA 2.3.3 good luck.

Great! Thanks for the help. The phone is somewhat alive but I still have no cell signal and my battery icon has a question mark in it again. I was reading on that thread you linked me mentioning to do a firmware upgrade using the kdz file or LG Tool. Do I have to flash the firmware to get the cell signal working and the battery icon to work? If so, where do I get the firmware to flash?

To fix the boot loop cycle just boot back into clockworkmod recovery and do a factory reset, wipe cache, Dalvik cache, and then reboot and give it several minutes (first boot takes a little longer).
Or since you said you have a backup, just boot into clockworkmod, do a factory reset, format /system, and then restore your backup.
Again, the first boot always takes a little longer.

Thanks phburk I managed to get the phone working again with the flash.bat file from the link posted but I still dont have cell signal and battery icon has a question mark in it. I'm trying to download and use the LG Update Tool to see if that flashes the firmware to get the cell signal and battery icon working again.

The LG Update Tool fails at 30%. I can't get wifi on the phone to work and I have no cell signal and battery icon has a question mark still. This phone has to be broken. I see no fix in site for this problem. Anyone want to trade a GS2 for a G2x?

If you have a backup from a working configuration, try restoring that. Before you restore it, boot into clockworkmod and do a factory reset, and then format /system. THEN restore your backup.
After you restore allow the phone to reboot. If you still don't have signal then go to Settings > About Phone and see what it says for Baseband version.

Right now its going to show "unknown" for baseband. Might sound stupid but remove the battery sim card and sdcard for 5 minutes or so and then put them all back in and reboot. Try that after the factory wipes and installing a new rom. I've done that when I saw the "?" And no cell or data...

I'll give it a shot. That's all I can do at the moment.
I no longer have a backup. The backup got corrupted that's why I've been trying other methods of restoring my phone. After running backup from CWM, the phone would reboot and stay on a black screen and flash. Screen would go dim then black like the backlight showing a black screen and dim again. That's all it kept doing and would not reboot. I tried doing a kdz flash but the pc wouldn't even recognize my phone when I plugged in the usb. (Yes, the drivers were installed and it was working. Previous to this I have kdz flashed twice. Phone has to be in S/W Update Mode by first pressing power button and as soon as the LG Logo shows up on the screen, let go of the power button and hold volume down.)
This resolved my reboot issue since I couldn't do a kdz flash.

**Update**
I read several threads regarding unknown baseband issue.
I've tried this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1332350.html
Since I already just did the first part by using the flash.bat file all I had to do was use the kdz flash. Unfortunately, my pc is still not recognizing my phone when I plug it in to the usb while in S/W Update Mode. I tried using this method above since the phone doesn't have to be in S/W Update Mode.
Outcome:
The LG Update Tool used in the method above kept stalling at 4%.
I read in another thread that this LG Update Tool doesn't work on Gingerbread. This LG Update Tool only works on Froyo.
So my next option was to use this method and try installing Froyo:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048274
This method just didn't work period. Since I don't have baseband or wifi working on the phone I can't get into market to download Rom Manager and I can't install File Expert which I have backed up on my pc. I already had the _ExternalSD directory so I made a sub directory /clockworkmod and another subdirectory /backup in the previous subdirectory. Made this on both the External and Internal sd cards and CWM tells me Couldn't open directory - No files found. So installing Froyo this way was out of the question.
I found this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1037120.html
This is the stock Froyo version before the Gingerbread update as a zip file.
Unfortunately, when I tried to install the zip file from CWM it didn't work. I unzipped the zip file and found 2 .bin files which answers my question why CWM didn't install the zip.
I tried this method as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-1332350.html
This method involves the flash.bat file to be done as a prerequisite before flashing to kdz. To my understanding, the flash.bat file fixes the partitions that most likely were screwed up on the phone and the kdz flash fixes the baseband (update/repair). I still haven't been able to get that kdz flash v1e to work simply because my pc won't recognize my phone into the usb when its in S/W Update Mode. I'm leaning towards the LG Update Tool to fix my baseband but I just need to downgrade to Froyo.
Don't know what else to do. I've been at it for 2 days and I'm seriously going to give up and just cancel T-Mobile.

If one of the methods involves installing apps, u can use adb to install them from ur computer without having to copy them to ur phone. But that's if u can get it into usb debugging mode.

When you installed the rom, there should've been an extra package for Google apps that you should have flashed along with the rom as well, but you did so many different things, I don't know what to say.

You don't need your backup, it won't fix your baseband if it's corrupted or at all because no one has been able to get this phone to independently flash a baseband and the only way is through running the Gingerbread update either with KDZ or the LG updater.
I also went through hell more than once when I bricked my phone a few times. The first time I spent almost 2 weeks at it until I fixed it with the help of others here.
I also had the KDZ update stop at 4% over and over again which drove me crazy with anxiety. I was desperate so, after a few of those 4% hangups, I decided to reinstall a ROM and kernel just to see if the phone's baseband had installed anyway. Well, what a surprise, it did work.
You should try KDZ update again and, when it stalls at 4%, leave it for about 20 minutes then install a ROM based on Android 2.3.3, such as Weapon 3, fix permissions then reboot. That's what worked for me once. Another time, I did the same but I installed MTK drivers first then ran KDZ which stopped at 4% too but it worked too.
Read post #20 in this thread about how someone else did that successfully: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1180177

Motorola Razr HD LTE XT925 4.1.2 boot loop

I'm stumped with this issue of my Motorola Razr HD LTE XT925 Rogers version 4.1.2 being in a boot loop. It started when I did a factory reset to try and fix some camera issues that I was having it started up with the Motorola red M icon then went to proceed with the factory reset with the android icon with the spinning blue object then restarts and just does a loop I have tried some steps that I found that I will list but all are unsuccessful and I did try them several times. It is stock firmware but was rooted with one click rooting program can't remember the name I did nothing else to the firmware.
Power + volume down for 10 seconds (simulates a battery pull)
Stock recovery tried wiping data and cache and then rebooting
Tried to use the boot menu normal start up and factory options
I did however get it to boot to the Rogers logo screen once but it just froze and had to restart it
I am currently trying get ADB tool to installed and get it working to see my phone as well as RDS Lite 6.1.6 it wont show any info about the phone but when in fastboot mode RDS Lite see it as connected in fastboot but no info about the phone shows up in the top left box as it has shown before also tried Super ADB Tool it show nothing at all I will continue to try and get the tools working.
Any help in getting the phone to boot normally is greatly appreciated.

I was also wondering if any body knows a good way to completely wipe the razr XT925 and restore the stock firmware that would also help.

OK so I have ADB installed and working I think put my XT925 in fast boot mode then I put in code adb devices in to the windows command console but show nothing listed and my phone says it is in fastboot mode and usb is connected and windows sees it as well but not ADB. There is no errors ether I am so confused as to why ADB and RSD show no info about my phone? I will see if its any of my drivers that are missing.
I went ahead and tried to flash my phone with RSD lite 6.1.6 with no luck the boot loop is preventing it from proceeding with the flash is this just a lost cause and there is no fix for it. The only thing I can think of is that I have to unlock the boot loader is that even an option when I can't even get boot into android? Any one got any ideas?

I was messing a round with my phone and try to get it working with any of the tools and had turned of the phone to stop it from constantly showing the red M icon and the android icon with the blue spinning object over and over but still had the phone plugged in to the computer and was looking in device manger in windows and seen this QHUSB_DLOAD with no drivers for it and looked at the VID & PID ids (USB\VID_05C6&PID_9008
) and searched for drivers thinking that is what is missing for my phone as I have never see it before and it is Qualcomm modem flashing port I don't know what to do did really mess up my phone by just doing a factory restore?
Some help or clarification would help a lot now as it is a bit troubling that I am unable to fix the Motorola Razr XT925 and might be bricked just by doing a factory restore. :silly:

OK I am getting desperate here I will do anything to stop it from looping I have even tried house of motos way just the same thing still if I can stop it from looping I can get it to work but does anyone knows a way to wipe the phone completely or stop it from this infuriating loop???
Just as a side note I found that forcing it in to normal start up with the wall charger plugged in it will charge when done then it will show the rogers logo like its booting but does nothing.

I have searched the forms and google now for 2 days about any way to fix the boot loop but all just say to do things that I have tried many different ways many times and the tools don't work or will work like RDS but it is unable to continue do to the loop of it doing a factory restore then restarts.
If any body has any ideas at all or can at least point me in the right direction would be a life saver I will even jtag the phone if i have to, if even that's possible

Thanks for the reply, I have gone into fastboot mode and used RSD to try and flash the stock rom but when it restarts the phone its unable to countiue becuse it is uable to get past the bootloop

If your phone is bootloader locked you can always take it back to the carrier, that's it if you have guarantee. I suggest you try a earlier version of RSD lite, 6.1.4 for example, and see how it goes.

OK, not able to take it to Rogers some issues with doing that but will try RSD lite 6.1.4 besides that no other ways?

I had the same issue yesterday. Received a phone call and my phone shut off and started looping on the red M logo, but no further. I did everything in my power to get RSD Lite and ADB to recognize my phone in fastboot mode. Nothing. Then, I moved the USB port to another port on my laptop, and viola, RSD Lite picked it up, but ADB never did. Using the stock firmware available for my 926, I was able to revert back to the latest version of JB for my phone. I did also have to run RSD Lite in *administrator mode* in order to get success. Hope any of these tips helps you out.
Also, even though I was successful in flashing, I was still in loop mode until... I had to wait for the battery to die and the phone to shut all the way off. Then after powering up, it came up. I tried the volume down + power key, but it would only reset the phone, it would not completely power it off like it needed. This is not something I have seen on any forum anywhere, so hopefully it helps.

This is not something I have seen on any forum anywhere, so hopefully it helps.

Thanks for the reply, I was thinking along the same lines as that but trying it on a freshly installed windows plus on different computer and just have RSD lite 6.0 and my Motorola drivers for my phone installed. I was thinking that it was my current motherboard that has a Intel usb 3.0 controller on it and my old motherboard did not as I manually updated my phone from 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 before on my old motherboard and had no issues and will fallow the instructions to the letter and will triple check as well. I will see how this goes and hope it works as its my last option to get it working.

OK so trying to reflash the phone from a different computer with a fresh install of windows buy did not work.
I was looking though the options in the android system recovery menu and two options stood out are:
apply update from external storage
and
apply update from ADB (wont work as ADB does not see the phone)
would doing an update with an SD card with the firmware on it work or is it for some other purpose?

I'm not sure, never flashed that way. If it isn't too much to ask, can you tell me the process you are following to flash the stock rom step by step?, to see if I can somehow help you out, it's really odd It doesn't work.

Thanks for the reply, The steps I take to flash my phone is to first put my phone in to fast boot mode then connect my phone to the back of my pc then start up RSD Lite and add the latest firmware for my XT925 in RSD then let it load the firmware and it restarts the phone. it starts up to the non animated red M icon then the android with the spinning blue object in its chest comes up but then shuts off and restarts and have left it for several hours until it died and had to recharge it up.If I can I will post a video of how I flash it and what the phone does.
also is it normal for RSD Lite not to show the imei number of the phone or any thing about it in the top left box (Device properties) when you click on the modal?, all I get is N/A in Device properties box.

Yes, that is completely normal, that only appears when the flash is succesful and you get past the "select language" screen, but seeing that you're stuck in the M logo means that you haven't got there yet, in the mean time it will still appear no imei and no info.

Here, try this: http://www.android.gs/unroot-droid-razr-hd-xt926-downgrade-stock-firmware/
The RSD process following the exact same instructions found there on a Windows with USB 2.0, and it is preferred you use RSD 6.1.4 (if you don't have it I can post it here if you want)
Your build to flash is found here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/
Search for the one the phone brought when it was just bought, it has to be from your carrier.
Btw: did the flashing gives you any errors at all or not? Also, do you have bootloader unlocked? Just some details I'm curious, but seeing your phone does finish the process and restarts means it probably doesn't get any errors, anyway I'm just curious.

thanks for the reply, I have just tried the the steps in the link you provided and I used RSD lite 6.1.4 and got the 4.0.4 Rogers firmware for my XT925 that it originally came with and waited an hour but just did the same thing, I don't get any errors when flashing although RSD displays to start the phone up manually and I have a locked boot loader (Device is LOCKED: Status Code: 0) I can how ever get it to go to the animated red M icon and then the rogers logo by selecting normal power up from the boot menu but doesn't boot in to android.

I was also wondering if any body knows a good way to completely wipe the razr XT925 and restore the stock firmware that would also help.

http://theunlockr.com/2012/01/24/how-to-restore-the-motorola-droid-razr-using-fastboot-files/

Ok, so I think I maybe doing something incorrectly so I will put all the steps I did to reflash my phone and will add some pics and a video if possible.It took me a few days to get another phone to use for vids and pics the phone I used to for video and pics Samsung Captivate, unbrickable ya can't kill it.
1. I have installed RSD Lite 6.1.4
2. Installed the latest Motorola drivers by down loading the Motorola Device Manager
3. Down loaded the firmware for my phone android 4.1.2 full file name ---> 9.8.2Q-8-XT925_VQL-12.2_CANADA_VANQJBLTEFRCI_P004_CFC_fb.xml.zip
4. Put my phone in fast boot mode then connected my phone to my netbook on the side or on the back usb 2.0 port on the PC with the original Motorola usb phone cable tried both to be sure
5. Started up RSD Lite 6.1.4 and load the firmware and selected Decompress only
6. Checked RSD Lite to make sure my phone is connected and showing up and RSD Lite shows (Fastboot VQUISH_U S USB N/A Connected)
7. I then selected start button on RSD Lite and it flashed the firmware with out issues or errors
8. phone restarts fine from fastboot left it for 1:30 RSD displays to reboot the phone manually but the phone does not do anything else but reboot constantly left the phone doing that until it ran out of battery
Pic of XT925 in fastboot mode not connected
Pic of RSD with phone connected in fastboot mode ready to be flashed
Video of phone restarting after being flashed and looping (click the link below)

Pic of RSD after leaving the phone for 1 hour and 30 minutes

In the steps I don't see the XML file editing, did you deleted the getvar line in the XML file?

xt925 bricked - flashing stops at system step

Few weeks ago my phone started closing apps every now and then, sometimes even restarting itself when under "heavy" load like opening Snapchat filters with face recognition for example (maybe the processor is failing?).
The reboot sometimes took 5 minutes, sometimes more. One time it took the phone 1 hour to reboot.
A few days ago it rebooted itself and got stuck on the M logo for hours, I waited literally until battery drained.
Anyways, I tried to flash Android back on it on fastboot mode with RSD but it always stops at the system img step.
It says "PHONE returned FAIL" on RSD.
My Bootloader is Unlocked btw. Battery says OK. Status Code says 3. Fastboot reason says Sticky bit fastboot after the RSD restarts the phone.
I have tried with 3 different files and all stop at flashing system step. I had flashed 4.4 on it before. My phone is originally from Telcel (Mexico)

Did you ever solve this issue?? I've got pretty much the same issue here, except mine is bricked... Won't even turn on, but if I connect to my pc the led turns green and after a few minutes it turns on, straight to fastboot. Same fastboot reason and everything. When I try to flash with rsd, it stays at step 2, trying to flash the sbl1 file... Then it fails and says PHONE returned FAIL... Any info from anyone is greatly appreciated!!

Ahh darn... Well, hopefully someone else sees this thread and is able to help out... Thanks anyways!

Hello, Luisit0 if your battery went bad then it could do that. Did you try hitting the power button when device is plugged into the home charger of the wall outlet? If you get to the M logo when you do that then its just the battery. If It does not do that and nothing happens you need a fastboot cable so you can flash the stock firmware. the fastboot cable will allow you to go to fatsboot mode without a battery.

HI, thanks for the reply. The thing is, the phone won't even get to the M logo. It charges and everything, but it powers up and goes straight to fastboot... It even said battery low, and after a while plugged in, it said battery ok, so I guess it's charging right. But like I said, no matter what combination I use, even the volume up + power button, it only goes straight to fastboot... I've tried numerous times to flash the Brazil and PR latam firmwares, and even after deleting the getvar and the md5 lines, it still gives me an error on step 2 when attempting to flash the sbl1 file and says FAIL on rsd lite 6.1.4...

Great!! Thanks so much!! I'll try this as soon as I get home in a few minutes, and hit you up after. Thanks again!!
EDIT: Okay so just a little update... I installed the drivers and it seems those were exactly the ones I had already installed, then I installed rsd lite 6.2.4 which you provided... Who wouldve known it was all in the version lol I was using 6.1.5 and, apparently, all I needed was to update... 6.2.4 did the trick!! However, not exactly... The firmware did finally flash completely and successfully, however it still boots directly to fastboot. The difference is, I can now actually access the boot menu holding volume down + volume up + power buttons, though every option I select only makes the bootloader unlocked warning come up and freeze there until I manually turn the phone off holding down the power button. If I select Normal Powerup, after a few seconds the warning goes away, but it never boots up. The other difference is, that now on fastboot, the reason now says "Sticky bit factory_fastboot". I'm going to attempt and flash the same firmware again, or my claropr latam firmware, or pretty much any other latam firmware and see if one of them works. Thanks again so much for your help so far!!!!
EDIT 2: IT LIVES!!!!!! Lol using rsd lite v6.2.4 did the trick. Apparently all I needed was to use the latest version of rsd lite... Man, I honestly cant thank you enough, you saved me a few 3 digit bucks on a new phone!! Lol, thanks so much for all your help!!

Yeah, finally it's back to life and working again. Turns out all I needed was to use the 6.2.4 version. Thanks for the link! I would've never thought it was just that :highfive:
