[q] help please - Atrix 4G Android Development

Ok i know there is probably something already out there but im REALLY FREAKING OUT. I updated to 1.8 and throughout the day it killed my battery and i got home and was gonna flash back to 1.5 and while RSD was flashing it failed. I then realized i forgot one of the most important steps... To have a full battery.. i think my phone died while flashing... is it bricked? If so im f************cked... please respond.
If i did brick it, is there anyway i can contact moto support and get a new device?
Edit: I unplugged it from my pc and pulled the battery and plugged it back in. My pc recognizes it as a USB Mass storage device... is there still hope for me?
Ok so after sitting here for a while my phone booted back up i did notice that RSD lite managed to create a image thing? Idk what that is so im just guessing that maybe thats what saved me cause i could have sworn i read that it would for sure brick your device. Run on sentence. Spare me grammar Nazis. Anyways the phone is back up and running and you can be damn sure im going to charge this all the way before i try anything like that again. thanks for the quick responses and sorry for making a new thread for this... feel like i spazzed out if a mod could remove this thread?

I cant answer the other question because I dont know, but if you have insurance or whatever its called on your phone if it really does turn out to be bricked then you could have it replaced using that... (from what I heard if you do have that you only get like 1 or 2 replaces before they wont let you do it again for the year just an fyi)
and I mean insurance through AT&T not moto

Thanks, i didn't buy the insurance for my phone... Is there anyway i might be able to tell a little white lie?

Only one way to tell...
Charge the battery fully and turn it on. Try reflashing the sbf and see what happens.

if it can see that, can you get it into the RSD mode by holding down the + volume button?

Have you tried letting it charge on mains for a while? Might get charge and be able to flash.

I would first try and re-flash it... but if it does not work then I leave that up to you and your conscious about getting insurance for it after its already messed up and stuff... but I would suggest even if you do get it to work, you may want to invest in that if you plan on doing a lot of developing on it or anything like that, which gives you a chance to brick your phone.

definitely maybe probably bricked

OK well i was installing Darkys latest rom. I was at the point where i was in
download mode and odin. While odin was loading files the usb slipped out of the
phone because nothing besides the stock usb cord happens to stay firmly in the
charging port on this phone. This is the 2nd time this happed but when it
happened this time my phone just stopped working and by stop working i mean i
get absolutely no picture on the screen. nothing happens when its plugged into
power cord or usb cord. nothing. tried holding all 3 buttons in tons of times and
nothing.
Im out of warranty and got no insurance. I did get att to give me 180 credit cuz
i threatened to cancel. so if i cant fix this im gonna use a crappy prepaid phone
for the time being. If the SGS2 doesnt come out by march then ill probably get
an axtrix even tho i would rather get SGS2.
So please does anyone know of anything i can try?? i'm probably gonna goto an att store and try a new battery. Any suggestions would be appreciated???
You tried pulling everything, plug in usb, hold rocker, put back in batt? My understanding is, if you have the bad luck of that cable coming out while loading the boot loader then you r indeed SOL.

Double spacing isn't necessary. We aren't going to grade your post.
You hopefully now understand that flashing to stock isn't the way to avoid problems; it's the way to create big ones.
Try removing the battery, wait a couple of minutes, plug in USB, hold volume up+down, while holding up+down insert the battery and see if that gets you back into download mode.

I tried all that. Ive probably flashed every single rom in the development section of the forum.
If it gets unplugged while doing an update then usually it displays the phone..!..computer picture and you can still get into download mode from there. I'm getting nothing tho.
the reason i think it could be the battery is because it may have been pretty close to dying which is stupid for flashing when it was close to dead but i wanted to hurry up because i had to leave the house. i'm wondering if since the software on there now is corrupt would that make the phone unable to charge. thats why i want to try a new battery

I don't think a jig will help. Usually it is used when your buttons never worked.... but hey... only a couple bucks vs the cost of a new phone.

yeah i know my buttons work, i just cant get my phone to turn on at all. also tried multiple chargers and usb cables. I think i'm screwed. im hoping someone on here heard of this problem before but ive never read anything about it on here before.
Using a POS phone till the SGS2 comes out is gonna suck
anyone know anything?
I will be trying another battery today.
Besides a jig, I have nothing else for you sorry.
But on a different spectrum, if you do get a new phone, dont get the atrix, it is the worst phone out of all the phones coming out on att. Get the inspire our the infuse if you dont want to hold a dinner plate to your head.

Try the jig. It can not make things worse for you and MAY actually work for your issue.

phone needs to be able to power on for a jig to work.
how are you out of warranty? (besides the custom rom) the phone has a 1 year warranty and it is not been on the market that long.
if the phone *happened* to be *dammaged* in a way that they would never notice AND would NEVER be able to read the memory (with out spending thousands of dollars), THEY WOULD NEVER KNOW you flashed custom rom and voided your warranty. they would try to test it, nope, broken, NEXT...
and SGS2 expected in june

yeah your right i still am in warranty but 2 weeks after i got the phone i dropped it and the screen cracked but the cracks not that bad. So i cant warranty the device because the crack. I did get att to give me $180 credit on my bill. $30 of every 6 month.
Ive heard the international version of the SGS2 will be out long before the att version will be. So i might use my upgrade on an iphone 4 and then sell it and buy the international SGS2.
what do you guys think about that idea?

Bionic is Not Turning On.

It's not rooted and doesn't have anything on it. Pretty much stock. Sent a text msg this morning and checked my email from it. Came back to it abt 20 minutes later and it won't even turn on. Tried charging it. Won't turn on. Tried swapping with my regular battery (which was fully charged when I put it away. It could be dead by now.). Nothing. Tried removing the battery, waiting, replacing the battery. Nothing. I did briefly get the M Dual Core icon and then all went blank.
Suggestions?
Back to VZW. Sounds like a faulty handset.

I second this.
Without going through the pain of returning it, would you be able to connect it to your computer, and reflash the (is it TRZ?) file through the new RSD Lite through the stock bootloader? Definitely worth a try.

Thanks, all.. Hauled my cookies 30 minutes over to Verizon. The sales rep assumed I hadn't bothered to charge my phone. When he realized it wasn't the battery, he was extremely helpful and replaced the phone on the spot. He said he'd never seen that before and with a phone less than 1 month old, I shouldn't have those kinds of issues. Kudos to Verizon for a pleasant experience. I've had some bad experiences in the past, but this gentleman was helpful and didn't try to sell me any accessories! ;p (They always try to sell me something when I'm there.)

This is referencing what one would do if the software had an issue, if it does this will fix it but kinda sounds like hardware. I have returned my Bionic to stock twice its fairly easy, computer does almost everything. Here is this to get you going if you wanna do it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1262540
Just remember, phone has to be in fastboot mode to be detected by RSD Lite and once its detected and the file starts flashing, if it seems like its not making progress while saying otherwise, dont unplug it just wait

One would need the ability to turn the phone on in the first place for this to be attempted. That's why no one was mentioning the FXZ.
The phone booted to the dual core M logo, which with myself that happens to be as far as mine would go when i successfully flashed my FXZ. The phone needs to boot to the fastboot screen which can be done on many occasions that the phone can get to the first logo, as long as there is battery left.
....
But congrats on the new replacement i just saw that after i posted

It hasn't happened to me but I have to pull the battery on my wifes Bionic at least once a week and twice in one day. It would just go away suddenly and act like it was dead. I may return it for a replacement.
if anyone has exchanged their Bionic for a replacement because of the BSOD defect, will you please provide feedback in this thread? thanks
hi all:
just bought a bionic off ebay for cheap ($20 + free ship) but it has problems
it was being sold as "battery with water damage but phone is not but wont power on"
he said one night he left it in his drawer and when he woke up it didn't work anymore he tried removing battery and all that.
to my understanding the battery was previously water damaged and he could still use it and then got the wont power on later on.
anyhow to my question
the phone comes today with just the phone, water damaged battery and wall charger.
should I cut the end off the charger and do the wires to the battery and insert battery into phone and plug usb cord from laptop to the phone?
isn't this the correct way for bsod and a non water damaged battery?
is there anyway to test the waterdamaged battery to see if it could still be good?
I have a multimeter

Wow...this is indeed a bit worrying if it just died like that...
I'm not really that experienced, to be honest, I usually managed to fix things by putting it into download or recovery. I'm afraid that if even the JIG fails, then your only possible next step would be the Samsung service...hoping that the repairs cost less than a new actual device.
You can tell them something went wrong while updating through Kies, as I heard other people suggest, though I don't really know how well that would hold upon closer inspection...
Do you have an externel wall charger jsu tto make sure its not the battery not charging properly

Sssoorry to keep this thing going, but...I'm really curious about what on Earth could've happened *just like that*? I'm at my 3rd Android phone, had custom ROMs on everyone of them (now on imilka's CM9) and...I always figured that if they work now, they'll always work as long as I don't do anything stupid like flash an S2 firmware. Never imagined that the phone would simply refuse to turn on at one point...
Obviously, I think there had to be something in either the file system or partition system or...I don't know that changed and messed things up. Had some tricky situations with my Ace and with my Note as well, but got out of them with either recovery, or, at worst, download mode...
Maybe someone with a lot more knowledge about developing and ROMs might help me understand how/why things could go wrong like that

HELP! My Phone is Dead!

After about a month of being rooted I decided to flash a custom rom, so I flash twrp then my custom rom which happened to be the wrong one because it was a bacon rom and I have a shamu phone so the flash didnt work (wish instructions would have made that more clear.) So after the first fail I flashed the CM12 updater zip thinking that would help but it didnt. So I go to restore my backup image, it was successful! After a successful restore I hit reboot to reboot my phone and from their it never came back up. My phone is dead as can be, no signs of life not a light or anything comes on. If their anything I can do or am I doomed. I do have insurance so I can get another phone, thats after a $200 deposit of course
With the phone off, what happens if you press and HOLD the lower volume key and the power button?

download any rom via your computer, and gapps. then boot into your recovery and adb push them to your phone. be sure its a nexus 6 rom, as thats all a nexus 6 can flash. or, boot into your bootloader and flash the factory img via fastboot.
generally, you shouldnt mod your phone until you learn all the basics about modding your phone.

So, what you are saying, is that he/she should commit insurance fraud? Man, look if you don't know what you are doing and brick/destroy your phone that is on you. Pay the money for a new one and learn your lesson. All you are doing is making RMA processes more and more difficult because of cheats like you. OP is to blame here if he/she flashed a ROM made for a different phone, that's on them not the MFG, Motorola.

He is right. People understand that you void your warranty when you flash your device. XDA doesnt condone fraud in any way shape or form. If you brick your device because you were messing with it then you accept it and buy a new one. Why do you think just about every rom thread tells you that you have now voided your warranty. Flashing your device is not something that should be taken lightly or done because it is cool.
so?

So is OK for them to sell phones to us that are defective? Anyway my phone had the
Screen burning and also the
Pink color issue when you lower the brightness I didn't fell like returning it because I had
Already set everything up the way I like it . so just like us they also have to face
The consequences which they do pretty good for me and should do for everyone we are
Taking about a 700 hundred dollars phone here not a 100 dollars phone ,I would like to see.
Those who are taking crap saying to buy another phone if they were in my shoes

hey guys, so i have the newest lp bootloader, i installed microkat for testing purposes, then i saw blisspop v3.0 is out, then i downloaded, flashed and it was well over 20 minutes, so i pressed and held power button to get out of the stuck flash process, and then when i go to do power button + vol down to get into recovery it just powers off the device, i do have a low battery, and alot of the fastboot stuffs say low battery, so i left it to charge then i flashed this all + twrp 2.8.6.0:

and still whe ni try to enter recovery or factory reset from the menu it just powers off
so please help me get my device booting!

Hmmm... thats really strange , have you tried flashing a stock rom through fastboot and then installing twrp ??

I cant tell what % the battery is at, but last i had it at was 7% so its quite possible its very low, but the issue is theres no sure way for me to know if its charging, its hard to explain, but i have a wonky charger and to charge my phone i need to fiddle with the wire to keep it charging then i need to not touch it at all so it charges :/

7% won't do it. You don't have an old charger laying around? Even my Motorola Bluetooth charger will charge the moto. I've got 8 or 10 old chargers and only one of those won't work.

Thing is no matter what charger i use i have to fiddle it and theres no sure way if it will charge, my device now wont even boot up, i think its the battery issue but ive tried 4 chargers, all of them are the same, no sure way if my phone is charging or not... i think ill submit it to warranty, problem is i have local warranty not Motorola one, so they have different rules, they only accept devices that are not "jailbroken" (thats what the warrenty rules say, so i will see what they can do, maybe some nice talk will get me in there good books lol
@Pizza_Dox
Oh man, I seriously hope that your phone gets fixed man
We dont wanna lose a good dev

In the US Motorola warranty is void if u unlock the bootloader and root it...Which I have done...But when I needed a new screen (because of a bad pixel) they didn't care and got me a free replacement
Try calling Motorola and say "I was updating to lollipop (with 80% charge) and all of a sudden the phone went black ....Blame Motorola.....I used a similar excuse when I bricked my S3 and Samsung bought it....
Hope all goes well
