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!

Hey there =)
I´ve often read threads and posts by people how did not realy know what they did and after an interrupted flash or a bad rom the phone does not work (propperly or at all) and now they think they really messed up theyr phone...
I know that there are many different phones and roms and ways to so called " soft brick" your phone but if you follow the statet steps you will bring your phone back to life =)
1. DONT WORRY and stay calm
2. Find out how to get into the recovery mode
2.1 If you found out try to whipe data/cash and restart the phone
(many people have bootloops after flashing a rom and dont whipe the data/cash)
3. If there is no way to safe your Firmware (for instance due a interupted flash) search (google) for a stock rom wich fits to your region and phone
(For instance "flashing I9001 stock rom" if you have a sgs+
4. In most of the cases youll find what you are searching for (samsung roms can be found on http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/)
5. If you are really a noob you have to know that the software wich is needed to flash a firmware is odin (in xda forum you will find what youre searching for)
All in all you have to know that there are many people who have or had the same problems like you and you dont have to worry you will make it
Im posting this thread because a few years ago i was total android noob and learned how to flash in the way i stated above
Stay well =)
Only a question. The jig usually help if your bootloader got corrupted ( or something like that) , or no way to save it?

AW: You did not brick your phone!!! 5 Steps to unbrick
Hey there i have a tool from ZTE it is for the Recover .

I have a suggestion to add in the OP,
For sony phones you can use the sony update tool to unbrick your phone,
Or what worked for me when i bricked my device and nothing worked: flashing all the mods you have at once and wipe everything
sony xperia ray
ics 4.0.4 rooted
stock rom
I flashed TWRP on my new tablet and now when I power it up, it is stuck on the boot screen. I can power it on and off but that is it. I can't get in to recovery and I can't even charge it. My computer does not recognize it now either. What can I do? How do I fix this? Please help!!!
My tablet is from Tablet Express. It is called a Dragon Touch X10. The ID is LMY48B. According to Google, the LMY48B is a Nexus 5 Hammerhead. The TWRP that I flashed was for the Nexus 5 Hammerhead.
Nice one...
Keep it up... its worked for me:good:

Build ID's are for a particular branch of Android, LMY48B = android-5.1.1_r3
For a custom recovery, like TWRP, it needs to be built for your device (or ported from a similar device, with an Allwinner chip)
You can go to the Tablet Express website and more than likely get the tools and firmware you need to fix your tab, link

It looks like you tried to flash a rom designed for an S4 cpu onto your S3 One S. If this is truly the case, you very well could have bricked your phone permanently. I would look for your RUU here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2140967, and try to relock bootloader, flash stock kernel (pulled from RUU) and returning to stock.

Hi All….received the 4.4.2 download this morning on my RMHD and ran through the install. At reboot the phone got stuck on the Red Moto logo… I let it sit for nearly 45 minutes, assuming it was doing its thing in the background. But at that point I figured it was safe to assume something got hosed. I rebooted back into recovery and did a factory reset. That wound up making things worse…now am in a boot loop between the logo and the Android triage guy (recovery)….
Phone was rooted and locked. And I am complete understanding that I was losing root with this OTA. Been reading all posts in here….please ‘flog’ me if I missed something.
With that said…I have two questions on recovering the device.
1) Can I simply download and copy one of the JB images from the Motorola Firmware site to my SD card and install via recovery (since my recovery appears to be OK)?
2) Or should I/need I follow procedures using RSDLite? And recover this way?
Any comments are appreciated!
Thanks
Doug
Never mind. iBolski's thread "Official KK OTA for 9.30.1 (XT926) users - please read" in the general forum looks like it might do the trick for me...and I won't be able to go to a previous (JB) Android version. This looks easy enough.
I have the same issue except I'm in need of a .zip or set of files for the modem firmware that I need to flash in 4.4.2 183.x.x Stock because I tried to downgrade to 9.30.1 jb and the firmware and the modem downgraded. Could someone create a package I can flash in stock recovery to restore my Droid Razr Maxx HD to to 4.4.2 183.x.x

Hello!
I'm a noob as well, but I'll try my best to help with whatever I can as I have semi bricked my phone several times and safely got away with it. Assuming you followed the instructions on the Google developer page for Android L, have you tried reverting back to KitKat with the factory images they have provided via SDK? With SDK, you can open up the terminal in the SDK tools path to send commands forcing your phone into certain modes such as fastboot that is needed to flash the factory images.

Baz, click the link in my signature. There is a step by step guide to flash back to stock.

Hello guys , I've got a unlocked and rooted Made that has been in an drawer for a few months. My girlfriends 2nd gen Moto X screen broke and she's going to use it while Motorola fixes her screen or replaces the phone. Anyways there's an update that keeps trying to install on my Maxx. When it does it will basically bootloop with the TWRP recovery that's installed on it. Is there a way to install the update with the TWRP recovery or do I need to put the stocks recovery back in and let it install that way ? I've moved on to a Turbo so I forgotton how to do all that is there a guide , lastly where would I find the update in the phones memory ? I know all newb questions. I'm sorry. Thanks for your help in advance..
You could just flash the stock recovery. Or use the fxz and rsd light. It will do the same thing. Twrp won't work with stock update.
