go to the noob thread and follow the instructions for replacing files in the fxz, just use the same replace files but the indian fxz that you can download.

No problem. Just go here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1396650 and read the section on how to flash the FXZ. make sure to look at the bottom part where it tells you to replace some files. you will need to do that. Instead of using the ATT FXZ file like they say use the one that matches your current version (SEARET I think you said) and follow the same directions, but use that file instead.

can i should replace some file in above zip? because my phone is 2.3.6
Code:
How to flash the FXZ once applying the OTA update and get back to 2.3.5, ONCE YOU UPDATE TO THE OTS 2.3.6 YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO FLASH THE 2.3.5 FXZ WITHOUT FOLLOWING THESE STEPS BELOW!!
NOTE: Download this file HERE -
Unzip it and move all the the items in it to the stock fxz. You might get a warning about replacing files, just click OK. NOTE that Windows might not be able to handle the size of the fxz. I have 6 GB RAM but Windows still wasn't able to perform a drag-and-drop through the fxz's zip. I recommend that you just unzip the fxz and then put the files in. (You don't have to rezip it either, RSD Lite will still recognize it and will flash faster).
You should be able to use RSD Lite to flash the file.

Yeah, I was being stupid. Was the phone originally ATT when you bought it, or was it indian. that makes a big difference. you need to know what it said under settings > about phone.
anyways this should fix it, just use which ever fxz is right (from my post in the noob thread:
just thought of an easier way to get you restored. Most of the time you only really need to do system. download the moto-fastboot utility (it's similar to normal fastboot but you MUST use it instead or it will not work) and the fxz for your region. Extract the fxz and put the system.img from it and moto-fastboot in the same folder. open a command prompt in that folder (hold shift and right click) and type
Code:
moto-fastboot.exe flash system system.img
moto-fastboot.exe erase userdata
obviously you need to have your phone in fastboot mode to do that. it does the exact same thing as rsd, just only the 2 important steps, flashing system and wiping data.)
Let me know how that works for you. It may not since you have had flash failures, but we'll see.
moto-fastboot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=635584&d=1308928440 you should actually extract it and put all the things in it in the folder with system.img
Good luck!

Flashed my atrix 2 and fastboot fail
I bought my atrix 2 from US and unlocked it and am using this in india now. I tried to flashboot the phone with "5.5.1-EDEM-28-37-SEARET_cfc.xml". I added the new files thats available in the noob called replace.zip. I also tried the moto fast boot. Now am not able to flashboot and when i run flashboot i get this error "failed flashing process. 11/21 flash ebr "ebr"-> Phone returned fail; Phone connected" .
Please help me.
I just got my ATT Atrix 2 and I think I've already bricked it, soft at least. I used a script to go from 2.3.6 back to 2.3.5 stock, then OTA to 2.3.6, then I flashed the ICS leak and flashed SCV7, it was running horribly, kept crashing and was being extremely unstable so then I tried to use the FXZ script to go from ICS back to GB, and all my phone was doing was showing the Motorola dual core screen and boot looping or just staying on that screen I couldn't tell. I can get into fastboot, when I try to get into recovery there is an icon of a box with an arrow coming out of it and a little android and a yellow progress bar and when that finishes it goes to fastboot and it says "AP FastBoot Flash Mode (S) (Flash Failure) what can I do?
---------- Post added at 07:12 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------
The battery is low going by my luck I'm going to assume the phone will not charge while in fast boot. I've been at this for way too many hours, if someone could tell me how to get this phone working I'd appreciate it.
Hi everyone,
I've tried looking around for answer to this, but could not find anything, or at least could not find anything that said it explicitly.
So the OTA update is now live in the USA, but here in New Zealand no OTA update is available.
Im on stock 2.3.6, and unrooted, and when searching for updates nothing is found.
Is there any way to manually apply the US 4.0.4 official update? Such as flashing an official fxz file?
Would be really appreciated if someone could help me out in lamens terms!
Thanks!
If you have an at&t phone follow the instructions here to get on the leak http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779968
After that you can OTA to the official, but we can't FXZ back from the official yet, so staying on the leak is still recommended.

Hi, thanks for the answer.
It does not have stock AT&T, so is it still okay to follow the linked process?
Currently:
System version = 55.1.28.MB865.TNZ.en.NZ
Android version = 2.3.6
Kernal version = [email protected]#1
Baseband version = 2012-02-03 07:56 Off.Bld LUD_EDISON_R1E_PATCH_24_120203_0746 ... (just in case this would create an issue doing OTA update?)

Then it would not work. The update checks for at&t bloatware. As of now I have not seen any update files for the New Zealand version.

EDIT: finished
Heya fellow NZ'er, I got my motorola atrix 2 on ICS , and im here to help!
So follow these steps to get it working, First off, get moto-fastboot, extract it, and get the all the files inside into C:/Users/*Your name*/HERE.
Once that is done, get this file WARNING: its around 350MBs. Extract that file into C:/Users/*Your name*/HERE So that you have a whole bunch of .img files and a few otheres in there.
Ok now the tricky part, flashing the files.
MAKE SURE YOUR BATTERY IS FULL!!!!
Put the Atrix 2 in fastboot mode by turning it on while holding power, vol up and vol down all at the same time. (I prefer holding vol up and down together first, and pressing the power button.) then press vol down to get to a selection called "AP fastboot" and then press volume up.
Once there, make sure it has installed the right drivers (Should be like Mot single somethingarather device) and then go to start and type cmd in the search bar. go to the program and then once in command prompt, type in:
Code:
moto-fastboot devices
Then your phone should show up. Next just copy this and right click and paste into Command Prompt
Code:
moto-fastboot flash mbm allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin
moto-fastboot reboot-bootloader
Wait for it to come back again from reboot
Code:
moto-fastboot flash mbmloader mbmloader.bin
moto-fastboot flash mbm mbm.bin
moto-fastboot flash cdt.bin cdt.bin
moto-fastboot flash lbl lbl
moto-fastboot flash logo.bin logo.bin
moto-fastboot flash ebr ebr
moto-fastboot flash mbr mbr
moto-fastboot flash devtree device_tree.bin
moto-fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
moto-fastboot erase userdata
moto-fastboot erase cache
moto-fastboot flash system system.img
moto-fastboot flash webtop grfs.img
moto-fastboot flash preinstall preinstall.img
moto-fastboot flash radio radio.img
moto-fastboot flash boot boot.img
moto-fastboot reboot
Now hold the phone.(Literally) Now it may seem bricked. Well thats what happened to me.
Anyway take the battery out, and wait a Full 5-10 mins (And i mean actually get a stopwatch if you have to), then put it back in then leave it to charge for about 5-10 mins (Even though it was full when you started RIGHT??).
Now it should boot up normally and on its way to ICSdom!
Hey, cheers for the reply!
Is that the firmware from the "Atrix 2 MB865 Firmwares SuperThread (Ice Cream Sandwich)" thread?
Just wondering if I will be able to get back to current/an NZ version after flashing that? My atrix 2 still has over 2 and a half years of warranty remaining so, kind of want to keep it under warranty if possible. I'm sure if its sent in with firmware that doesnt match the IMEI, it will be coming straight back :S

Well I was playing around with my phone, and was able to flash it with Telecom NZ firmware So im pretty sure if you need to get it fixed, you can just download the telecom NZ file thats in the same place, and follow my steps again, to get back to Telecoms firmware, Now time to get back to finishing my steps lol...
Thanks heaps for completing the steps, just got to work up the courage to do it now :S
The part where you said it seems bricked seems a little scary lol.
The drivers you linked are 32bit, did you run them on 64bit windows fine, or should I search for a 64bit version
Drivers Theyre the ones I used and Im on 64 bit

You can try using fastboot and flash manually.

Thanks, idk how to flash system (or would I just flash this whole file?) in fastboot. Looking into that now, because "advanced tech support" at sprint doesn't know how to restore my data, lol.
EDIT: Works
I guess I just needed a newer RSD lite version 6.0 here: https://hotfile.com/dl/174582400/60ad26d/RSDLite_6.0.rar.html
I still had to remove the getvar commands from the .xml but phone took the flash finally! It's activating now. Thanks again Skrillax for this, hoping this firmware is more stable than the first update.:good:

Anyone mind giving the cliff notes on *how* to fastboot the files manually? Will it work on stock recovery?
Added Sprint US 7.7.1Q-6_SPR-125_ASA-14.
Re: [01-23-2013]Photon Q FXZ
Does this restore stock recovery as well? If so it's definitely easier than restoring a stock nandroid and recovery.img and taking the ota update. My understanding is the latest fxz is stock asa14?
Sent from my XT897 using xda app-developers app
Yes, it is fully stock and independant on the current device state, so you can flash it, then flash recovery and then nandroid. You just might need to remove the "get var" fastboot commands from the xml in order to get it flashed.
Re: [01-23-2013]Photon Q FXZ
So this is similar to an SBF file where it restores your phone to stock if you want to start over new? Would it be wise to wipe everything before using it? (After a backup of course)

just a heads up to others i Flashed this one instead of doing the OTA and then i tried to flash one of the older versions and RSD Lite lite failed. on the phone fastboot screen said error firmware was not downgradeable
this helped me to unbrick mine after ota update.
thanks, fixed it with RSD lite latest version, and flasing worked good
I broke my device. Thanks for this so I can fix it maybe.

so this means there is some kind of bootloader lock on downgrading from the latest firmware? maybe they did that so people can't go back and use Motofail2go or something? is your bootloader unlocked by the official method?
Does it matter which firmware you flash or does it have to be the one that was on the phone before? Got a failure message in RSD lite and im not sure if it was cuz of low device battery or wrong version. My phone was bought new and bricked on the December firmware, whichever that was.
If you have low battery, discharge it completely, then plug to charger and leave it be, so it doesn't try to boot when plugged in to the charger.
If you get failure message in RSD lite, read it
But you can just flash latest FW.
Sorry Im really hung over today didnt mean to geek out. Didnt realize I already posted here! Is flashing with RSD lite really as easy as it seems to unbrick a phone?
I honestly don't recall whether Photon Q charges in fastboot when connected via USB. However, if you leave it in fastboot until it discharges completely, and then plug it to a wall charger (!and leave it there be), it will start charging in "emergency mode" i.e without booting.
Does NOT charge in FastBoot mode. Might overheat if left in recovery after restore.
I just wanted to follow up and say this was a shockingly easy method of restoring a bricked device. Just 3 easy steps.
So i have a Droid Razr Maxx HD xt926
it is on the latest 4.2.1 ota
It was starting to run slow, so i figured it was time to root and get a custom rom. but what i didn't realize is you cant unlock boot-loader.
So i rooted the phone, no issues. i tried to flash TWRP and CWM and both failed.
So when i go to recovery all i get is a black screen with white writiing that says
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (s)
10.9B(#) (sha-1e9f, 2013-05-25 01:04:26)
eMMC info: Size 32GB
Divice is LOCKED, Status Code: 0
Battery OK
Connect USB
Data Cable
Failed to hab check for recovery: 0x56
Fastboot Reason: Boot Failure
I can exit out and get back to android.
Since i can get the bootloader unlocked (at least i dont think there is a way) i want to flash everything back to factory, it can be unrooted as well. just want a clean start on it.
any help would be great thanks.

sounds like you jacked stock recovery. if it will boot up, try using this http://www.mediafire.com/download/tt7cwwua49n24uv/Razr_HD_Recovery_Flasher_V7.rar to put the stock recovery back on. i cant say for sure it will work but i think it will.

If the bootloader is locked, it's highly unlikely that attempting to flash a recovery would've touched the stock recovery. With that being said, you can use one of the utilities to flash back to completely stock or use RSD and flash the most up-to-date XML from here:

true but you have to modify files before rsd will work, and the utilities say dont use on the latest update (locked) unless there is one i haven't seen, correct?

I've never had to modify the XMLs to work in RSD, but you might have to for some of them. You can swap files in the utilities and put the newest update in there. Also, flashing your zip or any other zip should clear the flash fail.

boot the phone up (just power on), after on plug it into your pc, use the tool i posted in #5 (just going off what RikRong said, any successful flash should clear the failure) flash "stock recovery", let it reboot and see if its fixed.
if its not fixed, im still under the impression you will have to do one of 2 things to fix it from what i read others post previously,
-replace the files in matts utility with the latest ones from the stock files, or
-modify the xml file in the latest sbf to get rsd to work without failing

CM10.1 Android 4.2.2 Razr HD XT925
Already installed various recoveries only my device so enter the stock recovery, bootloader unlocked with this, I want to install cm10.1.3 4.2.2 and I can not, can someone help me?
My Droid Razr HD is doing the same thing
My screen says all of that also.
its says its locked and the battery is ok and all of that
I was trying to root my phone which was unsuccessful.
Now I cannot start and run my phone properly.
when it comes on it has me choose a language and press start and then acts like its loading and says it may take a few minutes. It will do that for hours and never move on to the next step.
How did you fix yours and recover it?
None of the other options on the reboot screen work...
I had tried:
normal start up
AP fast Boot
Recovery
BP Tools
They all lead to the same thing with the language selection and so on.
What can I do?

assuming you have a 926, re-flash it with this.
if you have a 925 do NOT use ^^ that. you will have to use rsd instead.
I am having a similar issue but my bootloader is unlocked and no matter what I flash to recovery recovery won't work anymore whether it being a factory reset or trying to just plain boot in to it.

on the bootloader screen it says "status code 3" correct?
you cant flash cwm or twrp with fastboot?
what exactly is it doing or not doing and does the flash dialog indicate it flashing ok?
you imply, you cant boot into recovery, then say a factory reset wont work. what happens exactly in either of those attempts?
after you flash a custom recovery, you have to power off the phone and boot right into it and flash the su zip (do not boot the system in between), you know that correct?
any other info you can provide that i may have left out could be helpfull in getting this working for you.
Hello everyone,
I know this tread is old but, I have a problem and I hope someone here can help me. I have a mot razr 926 with these specs:
android version 4.1.2;
System version 9.30.1.XT926.Verizon
Kernel 3.0.31 ( I believe is stock)
Build number 9.8.1Q-94-1
My phone was rooted before with stock rom; I had to do a factory reset; so I reset, rooted again and my mistake it was trying to unlock the bootloader ( I know, I know, it's 9.30....)
Now my problem is that I don't have "recovery" or I don't have access to it. Things that I have tried:
Moto utility 1.34
Moto utility 1.3 gpt fix
Razr HD Recovery flasher V7 (tried to install cwm and stock)
I'm just trying to get any recovery working.... any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Have you tried the stock recovery??, it can be tricky to get into stock recovery by pressing the correct combination of buttons
EDIT: You can use RSD Lite to update your phone to 182.46.10 and use Towelroot to re-root the phone. Once rooted, you can use Motoapocalypse to unlock bootloader.
EDIT 2: Read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-razr-hd/general/index-motorola-droid-razr-hd-2015-t3167557
I know my device is not ATT (since it does not have ATT logo on it), but I am unable to flash Chinese JB leaks on it. When I try to flash it using RSD, it fails at first step. I wonder why I am unable to flash JB leaks. I am on Asia Retail Stock ICS 4.0.4 now. When I bought it from my friend, it has ICS (i dont know wch one). I soft bricked it and flashed Asia retail ICS via "restore to ICS.bat" method. After that, I was eager to flash JB leaks but never succeeded.

I think I tried flashing Asia retail FXZ after that and it didn't go past 7th step (something.cdt). Even JB leaks are not getting flashed is the proof tht worst has happened.
I will try again today and tell the result. I dont have any idea abt the region of my phone and what firmware it supports. Any help to identify this would be appreciated.

I don't know if I was on TNZ ROM when I bought it, my friend tried to install 4.3 Carbon ROM on my atrix 2 using bootstrap method. It got soft bricked. After few hiccups, we got it back running using "restore to ICS.bat" method using SEARET FXZ. I was relieved that this bat file saved us. But now when I try to flash anything using RSD, it just wont.
So answer to ur question is - we used SEARET (Retail Asia) FXZ. I still use this same FXZ. I thought of using other FXZs, but sbf droid website which hosts all the FXZs is down now. I wish somebody create a mirror for all the ROMS.
P.S: Please reply soon. Feels like Atrix 2 section of this forum is dead when we get late replies.

I guess after using restore_to_ICS.bat file, your cdt.bin number has increased and hence, you can't use any other firmware other than ICS. BTW which region's ICS are you running now?

If you've used the restore_to_ICS.bat with the AT&T FXZ in it then you won't be able to flash anything else but the AT&T firmware. This is because the AT&T firmware is the most locked down of them all. In other words, no jb leaks for you. :/
If I had a dollar for every time I said that, I'd be making money in a very weird way.

Like I said before, your phone's cdt number has changed / increased, and hence the reason, you can't flash JB Leak which has a lower cdt number.

If you can ADB into the phone then you can just delete the CDT partition, and then RSD lite will let you flash whatever you want.
You do this, with the following:
1) Download moto-fastboot command:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953948
2) Save the exe someplace you can remember
3) Open a command prompt and CD to where you saved the moto-fastboot file
4) run the following command(s):
Code:
moto-fastboot erase cdt *NOTE this may not work and you may need to run the next command instead
moto-fastboot erase cdt.bin
5) Try and run RSDlite again and flash something and see if it lets you get past the flashing CDT.bin step
