Is SafeStrap an app if so im even more stuck as the wirless is coming up error on my phone still must be the namless v1.1 still ??
Have you tried reflashing CWM via fastboot? Could just be your recovery got borked and you need to reflash recovery.
You can also try reflashing CWM via ROM Manager.
edit: Your img file might be corrupt, did you compare the MD5 sum? How are you flashing recovery?

No you don't have to do all of that,
Just download the correct CWM recovery.img file, CHECK the MD5, then flash via fastboot, you don't have to start fresh or anything.
edit:
what phone is this for?
I got that it's an HTC device running Sense 4 but we might help you find a better CWM recovery link if we know which device you're using on what carrier.

Awesome!
Glad we got you back up and running, it can be a real pain when the issue is a bad img file and you can't seem to figure out what is going on, but people need to remember to check MD5 sums for recoveries, radios and bootloaders lest they brick.
I don't think you need to upload since that link seems to work, they can just find the CWM for that phone from the link I provided and flash via fastboot from there.
Cheers bro, let us know how it's going after you flash the ROM

Yea it is, but I think it's more for Motorola devices. I don't know what HTC uses if anything different. But my phone would boot to the OS so I could still install apps via the SD card. Once I got that properly reinstalled I could access the boot menu again.
Seems like you got that issue solved by I still wanted to follow up.
I just brick my phone, and i just wonder, if it will never work again, or maybe there's a magical solution

You sure you bricked it? That's the consumer version right? If you have acces to the fast boot on then we can help but if you have you boot loader unlocked then that's tuff cause we still learning not to brick for the hd . I'll tell you what though, If you boot loop or have a black screen try holding power and volume buttons until either the screen freezes and reboots or until it starts up again. Then you can access boot loader mode and or fast Boot we can flash something.

Hi! After a year this topic will revive, as my phone will do I hope.
I tried to boot my phone, but it didn't work, and I cannot recover my xt925. I have the fastboot, and it says : flash failure.
I tried to unlock the bootloader from Motorola website but it said my device was not compatible...
What should I do to make it work again?

any successful flash should clear that off. just grab your stock software from sbf-developers and flash it with rsd.

My first post due to a death
The death of my XT925 was probably on the cards since I decided to wet my appetite and unroot it and also unlock the bootloader. Everything was sweet at this point, but then I decided to upgrade to kitkat. A big risk, as it turned out, since now I have a smooth attractive-looking brick. My mistake was downloading a rom, which after _nearly_ completing, failed (after many attempts to get it). I repaired it, and then installed it using some root software. I'll have to look up the names, but now I have no response after a lot of frenzied button pressing. Bootloader / fastboot would allow me to get RSD Lite fired up - but I have nothing. The last thing I did was leave it on overnight with the recovery menu on the screen. Should I get my shopping pants on?

Sorry to hear this.
Flashing is a risky process one can easily flash something that is corrupt, or have something not complete.
One user is trying to restore his with this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2551113
Things to try.
1) Flashing the fxz/xml using the snapdragon fastboot command line
Last resort thx to SamuriHL
2) In custom recovery, you could attempt to wipe the system partition and see if that then allows you to flash the fxz/xml.
3) If not, wipe the system partition and then flash a known working rom in custom recovery (4.1.2).
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

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
Hello, I seem to have soft bricked my tf700.
I flashed a newish pacman nightly in CWM (after wiping data/cache/dalvik cache), which completed with no errors, then I flashed the corresponding GAPPS. But my device became stuck in the pacman boot intro.
So I tried flashing slimkat which led to my device not getting past the first bootup screen (where you can enter recovery if pressing the corresponding buttons).
After this screw-up I stupidly hit the wipe data button on the bootloader. I then tried doing the method of using fastboot to erase system, cache, and all that so I could flash system blob of the newest asus US SKU (that is correct for a US bought tf700 right?). Either this or wiping the data caused me to have a different bootloader as pictured below as I no longer have the android button and it does not ask me to press volume up to access recovery (the only way to access recovery is by hitting the wipe data button in bootloader).
I can still fastboot flash CWM, but trying to flash TWRP does not work as it finishes but going into recovery causes the tablet to just restart. Trying to flash asus stock as above would always give me an error like the one pictured below. Similar errors occur if trying to flash any rom inside CWM via an external sd card.
I do not have access to adb as i believe i dont have usb debugging enabled since the pacman rom or any other rom did not ever start. It just gives me the device not found error even after manually installing the drivers on two different computers.
Cant seem to get these pics to load, but copying the url and pasting it works.

You probably flashed the wrong Rom. Try flashing the >right< stock Rom and go from there. Double check everything you flash.

Whats the "right" rom here? Talking about the original asus stock rom? I have now tried the the pacman nightly, pacman release, slim kat release, clean rom release, an ICS asus stock rom, and two different versions of the jellybean asus stock rom. These were either done in CWM via internal sd card, external sd card, or done through fastboost flash system blob and flash zip.

Whatever Rom came on the device,(Good thing to have, da) I'm not familiar with this device.

As far as i know, i have installed the stock rom, or atleast multiple versions of it with no success as it gives me an error stating something like staging or system when trying to write it.

Hmm, I'd Download a stock Rom for the device offline, take on the sd card and put it on there real quick and try to flash that, if not, you probably bricked your device. I wouldn't know how to fix it beyond that. Ask the dev that made the Rom were everything that went south and an email to cwm wouldn't hurt either
I am also not sure if I need to have my external sd card formatted a certain way or download a specific CWM to allow flashing the stock rom. Ive spent over 10 hours trying to figure this out, very frustrating.
I have run CWM 6.0.4.6, CWM 6.0.4.7, and older versions to see if I could flash the stock rom with no luck. I have also tried different versions of TWRP but they always hang and reboot my tf700. I get errors ranging from status 6, status 7, cannot mount data, cannot mount staging, and cannot mount system. I am completely lost on what I can do. I have even tried a seperate sdcard to see if maybe the one I was originally using was bad with no luck. GG :/

You gotta stop flashing stuff and slow down!
During all of this you never posted your bootloader version, so you may have been on the wrong bootloader to begin with - who knows.
When you hit the Wipe Data in the bootloader menu you caused the BL do write a wipe data command to the misc partition, causing the tablet to boot to recovery each time you booted (I'm guessing here) and then interrupting it. Usually, with CWM installed, it eventually sorts it out and executes the wipe data command, but that takes hours! You just have to leave it alone.
Hard to tell where you are now since you flashed all kinds of stuff since then.
Can you still boot into the bootloader and have a fastboot connection?
What's the BL version number?
If you boot, what does it boot into?
The picture links are broken - at least in Tapatalk. Post them again?

Yes, the pictures are broken. You can still copy paste the url though. Couldnt figure out why it wouldnt work.
The tablet boots into the first screen that states it is unlocked, but does not go any further.
There is no bootloader version on the top left when holding down power + volume down.
I can still get to the place where it allows me to wipe data or fastboot, but the android icon to boot into android is now gone.
adb does not recognize my device even after manually installing the drivers, but fastboot works fine.
Is there any other way to find my bootloader version?

Maybe you want to edit your post with the urls then.... Makes it easier for people trying to help...
You're seriously messed up, I think. I see a USB icon in there which would indicate that your bootloader is ancient. But then it says: "starting USB fastboot protocol".
Is that after you selected the USB icon?
Anyway, I think you're only chance is buster99's method to get it back. Did you try that already?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44244313&postcount=12
Naturally you have to extract the system blob from the 10.6.1.14.10 US Asus firmware, but then you can try to fastboot flash it with buster's method.
Good luck!

Its starts the usb fastboot automatically if no input is selected. I had a different bootloader up until i tried that thing that buster did. It always gives me an error like cant write to system or something if i try it.

Which blob did you flash with buster's method?
I'm afraid you flashed something totally incompatible with your tablet...
You did not generate your nvflash blobs sometime prior to this, did you?

I flashed the asus stock rom downloaded from their website. The US version as it was bought in the US (right? 0.o). I hadnt heard of nvflash before trying to install a rom so i did not make a backup.

Are you sure you downloaded the correct firmware? For the TF700?
Do you still have the original zip you extracted the blob from?
Post the exact file name please.

You flashed all of those blobs???
In which order?
With what result?
Jeez - I think you're done for...
Sorry mate, but gotta catch some sleep now. Maybe somebody else has a bright idea...

I flashed the newest one first, and it gave me one of those errors that wouldnt allow me to flash it, and i tried the others with the same result. So technically i didnt flash any of them. I have been able to flash some roms, but they wouldnt boot so i would be stuck where i was when i started.

Right stop flashing random stuff - you have combinations of JB4.2.1, JB4.1.1 and ICS 4.0.3 just listed there.
Let me put a call out to @lj50036 who may be able to save you but if you have messed the bootloader up with no nvflash backups you are not going to be happy with the result. If you can still get to the bootloader screen then he can perform miraculous superhero acts and *maybe* save your device.

Hey guys, I'm trying to downgrade to KitKat after all the issues Lollipop is giving me and the incompatible apps I'm trying to run.
I am following instructions here but I came across a problem when flashing the system.img file.
The error it gives me is:
FAILED (remote: Insufficient memory.)
I can't flash over system and can not boot.
What am I missing? I was rooted and my bootloader unlocked prior to starting and I tried with the factory recovery and the 1.2.1 recovery image.
Edit: My issue has been solved. Flashing the Full OTA.zip file will install KitKat over Lollipop. No need to manually flash each file through fastboot. I wish guides would tell you that instead.

I don't know why that wouldn't work. Have you tried just downloading the image from nvidia HERE?
I'm assuming wifi since your sig says 16GB

Those are the same files as the ones I downloaded in the other thread.
I got my tablet working again on Lollipop 5.0.1 but that's not where I want to be. I've searched about my error message but most threads I found went unanswered.
Your best bet might just be to try getting a full OTA and flashing it through cwm or something. I'll try with mine when I have some time to backup and flash, probably later tomorrow. If I find anything out I'll post.

I just flashed the images and booted.
Did you accidentally try flashing to the wrong place, such as flashing to boot( which would be too small) instead of system? Did you do all of the commands yourself or use the .bat? My shield disconnected after doing the boot.img and system.img for some reason, so I had to select fastboot protocol to reboot the bootloader and continue to flash the userdata.img, blob, and battery.dtb.
was your tablet internal memory full?, try wipping data and chace and you could use the script that the original Nvidia recovery image has zipped. I went up and down like 3 times, im in kitkat right now and not experiencing any problem.

No I wipped internal data since I keep everything on external and it still didn't work.

So I should just flash the ota.zip?
Also i did everything like the guide. I flashed boot to boot, recovery to recovery. The only thing that gave me an error was system. Userdata, blob, and battery also flashed successfully. After that didn't work, I also tried the .bat and that didn't work either. Flashing the 5.0.1 update got my tablet running again.

If you can find a full ota.zip for update 1.2.1 I'd try that. I'm not sure why you would be having this issue. The only other things I can say to try is redownloading and rebooting the boot loader (select fastboot protocol) between images in case something funny is happening there. Let us know how you end up doing.

I flashed the 1.2.1 OTA update and it worked. The first time I tried, I did using the TWRP recovery but for some reason, that recovery fails to flash OTAs, so I went with CWM and flashed the 2.1 update and all worked again. After a while, I got tired of all the issues lollipop gave me so that's why I tried following that guide to downgrade.
In the end, using CWM and flashing the OTA is the best way to go. Thank you all for you help.
