[Q] Xoom stuck on starting RSD mode 2?

Flashed Build HWI69 for US Retail on a Canadian wifi MZ604 xoom..tired of
waiting for 3.1 update.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
adb reboot bootloader
Xoom will then reboot into bootloader screen
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
fastboot reboot
It is stuck on Starting RSD mode 2.
I can not get it to fastboot protocol...device does not turn off.
Any solutions?

Fastboot OEM lock is where you went wrong. Anyway see this thread.

OK I did this procedure yesterday but did not relock (I know it says to on the moto site but the guide I read said not to).
Anyway, pressing power and vol up will force a reboot. Unsure what will happen when it boots back up though...!

You should be fine. Only trying to relock will cause this error.

To get back to fastboot after a bad lock do this.
Power button and volume up, this will reboot the device.
As soon as the screen turns back on holds down power and volume down. In about 60 seconds your device should go to fastboot. Do not let go until it gets there.

Thanks for the reply . It now says Failed to boot LNX 0X0004
Starting Fastboot protocol support
However it will not connect to xoom.
<wait for device> when issue fastboot command.
What the hell is going on?

you need to read this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108518

The exact thread I linked to...(-__-)'

I followed instruction from motorla dev support site.
"h**p://developer.motorola.com/products/software/?pubid=987654"
It uses command "fastboot oem lock"! So why did locking brick the device?
here it is:
Device Software Images
Select the appropriate device software image to download and re-lock your device. If you need to find your build number on your Motorola device go to Settings and About Phone or About Tablet.
The commands to flash and re-lock your device are as follows:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem lock
Note: If no userdata.img file is present in your download, please issue the command:
fastboot erase userdata

The Moto instructions are for locking the device back to it's own image. You are not using your device's own image. Every guide I've seen on here tells you not to relock, regardless of what Moto say. Believe the devs.

Thanxs
I now believe the devs......
Thanks for the reply. Sent the beast out to moto Canada today.

Try making or obtaining a factory cable which its different from an OTG cable. Start with the two links below. This might save the day.

Hi,
The same boot loop error also I encountered , and here is how i solved it.
1. First U need to download this tool -> HONOR_6_and_6Plus_Multi-Tool
2. run the Honor6MultiTool.bat
3. it will ask to install universal ADB driver. follow the instruction and install
4. then 6th option will be UNBRICK, Enter ur choice: 6
5. Then u follow the instruction
After that the phone will boot.
If any problem will occur do comment below.
All The Best!!

the device does not enters fastboot mode just show the bootlogo
it enters fastboot but still the device wont boot
can you tell me the commands to flash all files from the update.app from fastboot
maybe that will solve the issue

DOWNLOAD stock firmware (update.app) extract from it Recovery.img system.img boot.img cache.img cust.img.and userdata.img. then turn your mobile in fastboot and connect to usb, open CMD in PC and write CD "path to adb.exe", when you are there, copy extracted files there too and write in CMD this lines:
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
fastboot flash system SYSTEM.img
fastboot flash boot BOOT.img
fastboot flash cache CACHE.img
fastboot flash cust CUST.img
fastboot flash userdata USERDATA.img
when you will finish write FASTBOOT REBOOT and that's all

i tried this already but it did not work
i think flashing all the 22 files from the update.app file will work
or i have to wait till the lollipop update file comes out
my bootloader is unlocked so will my device be repaired under warranty(huawei didn't mentioned voiding warranty by unlocking bootloader while getting the code)

Nexus 5 Stuck On 'Formatting /Data' After Factory Image Flashing

Hi
I have Nexus 5 (Hammerhead) 16GB. After Marshmallow latest update my phone begun to restart randomly, So I tried to do factory reset. When I entered recovery mode It did not show android lying on its back with label "No command" , instead It showed standing android with some rotating cube (or gear) on its tummy. I tried to flash factory image in several ways, using nexus root toolkit and fastboot. I even tried different versions of android to flash but no result. My phone still shows Android with rotating gear on its tummy. Today I found this Thread and did everything that was told but no luck. :crying: If anyone could help I would be very grateful. Sorry for my bad English.

What is "everything that was told"? Did you erase everything then flash everything new? How long are you letting it sit with the rotating cube/gear thing?

yes I did that, but still shows Android with rotating gears.
It does not matter whether I start my phone normally or boot a recovery mode It still shows this Android animation.

Does the phone's bootloader remain unlocked after rebooting?

e: can't mount/cache karbonn sparkle v

I was using cm13 sprout 4 and twrp recovery. Was getting error unfortunately ---- apps stopped again again from different apps.
So simply thought of wiping cache and dalvik from twrp . It gave error e: can't mount /cache. So thought of formattig data but by mistake instead of factory reset, i formatted my android. Now i have no os installed just a twrp and unlocked bootloader with me.
now it gives error also E: can't mount/ system also.
pls help, i have only this night to fix it , tight schedule ahead

today i tried these commands in fastboot :
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img
fastboot reboot
all commands finished successfully but strangely their no change in my device.
then i tried flashing cwm recovery
fastboot flash recovery cwm.img
but when i boot in recovery it was twrp only.
so i think the flash command from fastboot is not working.

Got a solution!
This is kind of late but I hope this helps other people who have the same issue and are viewing this thread!
Take the battery out of your phone and connect it to your computer. Use SP flash tools and flash the stock rom, using the option, "Format All + Download"
You may have to press a button or button combination to get SPFT to recognize your phone. My phone's volume rockers don't work so I cant help you with that, it was pure luck for me!
Once you let it flash, let the phone boot. It will take some time, longer than usual but it WILL boot. And the bootloader will be locked, so be prepared to start tinkering from scratch!

system isn't load after fresh install

You need this files (if using last factory image, hammerhead-m4b30z-factory-625c027b.zip):
boot.img
bootloader-hammerhead-hhz20h.img
cache.img
radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.50.2.30.img
recovery.img
system.img
userdata.img
so unzip hammerhead-m4b30z-factory-625c027b.zip (factory image), the unzip
image-hammerhead-m4b30z.zip (located inside factory image) to get all files above
in the same folder and last but not least flashing (in fastbood mode):
type this (one line each time and press enter after each line)
fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-hammerhead-hhz20h.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash radio radio-hammerhead-m8974a-2.0.50.2.30.img
fastboot reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash userdata userdata.img (this wipe your device.)
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash cache cache.img
fastboot reboot.
That's all
Good luck
