[Q] How to start over?

I'm not sure whats going on with my D3. However, I have RSD and I have .890 and .959 downloaded as well as Fastboot.
What I want to do is just wipe the phone completely and just flash it like its a brand new phone.
Anyone know how to do so? Please post a link or instructions, I would greatly appreciate it.

Held power, nothing. Held M + Power. Still nothing... Any thoughts on whats going on now?

I didn't see if you have pulled the SD card but yeah it can't hurt.

Follow the first portion of the instructions on how to flash back to original 5.6.890. Note the making of a folder and it's name for the 890 flash.
Ignore the part about flashing the new ROM. These are the best instructions I've found so far for flashing back to stock via RSD lite.
Good luck, keep us posted.
Download and follow exactly and you'll be good to go.
Hope that helps.

I'm stuck.

Let me do some looking when I get home tonight. I remember there being a file for certain versions of XP that helped some people and they couldn't flash without it.
I never had it happen personally, but I know those that did were terribly frustrated.
I also hear the 959 version is easier to flash for some reason. Never flashed that version, so this is only hear-say. But I know it did flash easier according to posts.
I will try to dig up a link for you.

i am getting the same thing also getting the bad CG boot.. now this may be a fix but idk how this guy got it it.. i have been asking eveywhere maybe you guys could help me... here is the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1248721

I found this by Psouza. He is likely the foremost expert on making things easy as far as unbricking your D3. Rumor has it he has a set of unbrick tools floating around this forum somewhere, though I haven't found it yet. Try in the Development thread, for sure it has to be there somewhere.

For those of you having problems flashing this and/or are suspicious of flashing ebr, mbr, and parts of the bootloader, you can selectively just flash the rest of it.

I also saw that flashing the pre-installs file alone first helped someone. That file borked on me once, but I was able to adb it over and then execute it via adb to get my phone unbricked.
Please let us know what works for you, as all of this is a work in progress right now.
Good luck!

i don't know to much about adb and are looking for help on pre-installed files. I don't understand what that means or how to go about it? i also cant get past the bootloader screen, "invalid CG version". i can not boot up at all.

How bricked are you? can you boot into CWM? Are you able to boot into tools, or how far can you get?
What version were you running? 5.959 (stock) or 6.890 OTA or Leaked OTA or Soak test (all the same as far as 6.890 goes).

i can get into boot tools and just tryed another flash got to step 6 till it failed instead of 3.. I'm running stock. Cannot get passed boot tools... scratch all that just tried to flash again just on the off chance it mnight work and i got it. Going to try and re-root and CWN recovery with sdteel froids rom... will keep you in the loop

Awesome!!
Here is the link about the adb commands for preinstall.sh
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17196391&postcount=88
It helped me when I borked my leaked update. I ran into the same problem as limaxray did with too many files in /system. So make sure you clean out any apps you made into system apps before trying the update via the standard update route, and that all stock system apps are in place and properly named.
I had to remove some that updated partially with the leaked update when mine borked. I used the posted system dump to push them to the phone and then the update ran properly and updated them anyhow.
If for some reason re-rooting doesn't work for you. Go to /system/bin and remove su, busybox. Do the same in /system/xbin. For some reason if you already have them in there when you run the process, it will say success but no root after reboot. My 2c as it happened to me. You do not need to remove superuser.apk, but you will have to update it in the market after you re-root.
Congrats!!
I see now too there is a fastboot and moto-fastboot. moto-fastboot has worked for some who had issues from what I've found.
Keep us posted, and smile knowing you've recovered from a bork; none of us got where we are without doing it at least once, so you're in good company.

re-rooted and installed bootstrap, just got steel droid all loaded up and all is good.... thanks for your speedy responses and detailed instructions and links. I realy think all that happened was i took everything aet it sone last time tried to flash and it went threw. All i used was RSD lite and flashed the 8.6.590 fast boot file and after a several retries it went threw. If anyone needs help on this i will post the file links if you need the ones i used

APlooped...

i have tried just about every recovery to no avail. rsd fails, moto fastboot doesnt accept commands or read device and the one i thought would never fail released root doesnt get my phone working. please help been at this for 7 hours.

What did u do? Did u try petes tools? Make sure ur drivers are up to date.

You should let us know if what you have already done with success, too. That is, before it bricked.
Maybe sleep it over, too.

Try a different USB port.
Follow these instructions: http://briefmobile.com/droid-bionic-receives-fastboot-recovery-files
Use the complete FXZ.

been using those instructions since bionics release. its a no go

you cannot flash boot.img. you will always get errors on that one, its the kernel.

I dont know whats going on lol.....everyone is coming with all these different stories. I used the root exploit that was out and used the safestrap for recovery. I dont think I did anything different than anyone else. And then i took a chance flashing a Razr rom

Oh yeah, the original utility had the safestrap didn't it? The latest utility doesn't anymore (although I think it works).

I took it out until Hashcode brings it out for Droid 4. I've been corresponding with him and if the maker of Safestrap tells you it isn't safe to use on Droid 4 yet then you usually should listen.
All up to your risk though.

I made a nandroid using safestrap, or thought i did. I made my backup so i figured i would try that arctic rom so i followed the directions step by step. After i wiped cache and factory reset i went install from sd and the arctic rom that i know i put on it was not there. So i figured i would flash back to the backup i just made and try the process of putting the arctic on my sd. Some how i ended up bricking my phone and am now stuck in bootloader and my device is looked. Have you or anyone else made an sbf, oneclick recovery or a way to unbrick my D4?

Not yet. There is a reason we have warnings on these...
I hope we get fastboot yet. You cannot just "make them" they have to be leaked.
FYI Motorola does Fastboot files, not SBF now.

Im new to root even though i have learned pretty quick. Finally after much pain and suffering got my X's bootloader unlocked and rooted some time in Nov. What does leaked mean and what is the difference between fastboot files and sbf?

As far as the warnings i didnt see the warning to not use safestrap till i got on here and it was to late. I figured since i was able to boot into recovery and make a backup i would be ok

You would be Man of the Year if you did that. You mean you bootstrapped it, right?
Leaked means they have to trickle out from Motorola/Verizon somehow.. either on purpose or by "accident" somebody on the inside putting them out there for use by our wonderful devs.
As for SBF vs fasboot, i dont know exactly the difference but think of them as different types of "recovery" that can be used to fully restore your phone to factory condition.

Yes, i mean bootstrapped and you mean woman of the year, right? My bf said the difference between the two is SBF your makinga mirror image of everything and doing a complete system dump and fastboot is just cutting the power for a split sec. It will clear your immediate cache but some memory is still there.

No, i dont. Im new to root, just rooted in nov. If you give me something thst would fix it that would be awesome.

Unfortunately, the fix isn't exactly a simple one.
It comes in 3 parts (assuming you're on Windows):
1. You'll need to download and install RSD Lite which is what is used to flash the fastboot restore files from Motorola:
http://dev-host.org/ug07spima1mq/RSDLite5.5.rar
2. Download and install the Motorola USB drivers to recognize your phone in fastboot mode:
http://www.mediafire.com/?z5qpc8v3xza25e6
3. I'm setting up a mini WEBTOP fastboot restore file based on the latest RAZR fastboot files (I say small.. but it's still quite a large download). The version is slightly off from the D4's but it might be close enough, and I think it's worth a shot:
[ Getting this file setup will take me about an hour, but you can get steps 1 and 2 ready for now ]
ALSO KEEP THE PHONE POWERED OFF FOR NOW TO SAVE BATTERY. FASTBOOT WILL NOT PROGRAM WITH A LOW BATTERY.

[SOLVED]Sending back for warranty repair question

Hello all. My wife has a bionic that I rooted and installed for3ver root. I only debloated the phone and installed v6 supercharger on it. I just upgraded her to the OTA .905 now her speaker went out.
I need to send it in for warranty they are sending a new one. I tried last night to RSD lite it back to stock. Now I used RSD a lot on my x2 in the past so no stranger to it. Using RSD 5.6 it would not recognize her phone. I reinstalled drivers and rsd lite and rebooted the computer but the computer would see the usb connected but not RSD lite. After trying several ways to get RSD to recognize the phone I ended up using petes root method to unroot the phone. I unrooted it and was able to erase all rooted apps including SU.
So here is my million dollar question. Since it is stock rom and now unrooted if I do a factory reset will it be safe to send to verizon or do I need to try another computer and try the RSD lite all over again?
Thanks in advance. I think it will be okay after a factory reset but there is pople on here a lot smarter than I am

When you did RSD Lite did you use the provided factory cable with the Bionic? The most common issue with most windows computers not recognizing the phone is due to not using the factory cable. As far as wiping via factory reset I don't know if it leaves remnants of some files used. FXZ'ing it would be your best bet. However some other users have reported that they have sent their phones still rooted and had no issues. Might have been lucky. Good chance is Verizon employees don't check to see if the phone was rooted and send off the phone to Motorola to do whatever they do with the phones.

Thanks for the response. Yes I was using the factory cable and phone was chareged to over 80% battery. My next step was to use another computer and try all over again. But after getting it unrooted I was not sure if it would be needed after a factory reset. But yes I would feel much better if I was able to flash it in RSD. Also I did try multiple usb ports I know voltage can be an issue as well.

Search for rsd version 5.7 and try it that way. Haven't had an issue using 5.7 with the bionic

Sorry I should of mentioned I also tried 5.7 as well after 5.6 did not work. I might try another computer later and try again tonight just for a piece of mind.
Also just a fyi I am using windows Vista. But same computer I always used on my X2 with no issues. I read someone uninstalled the moto helper and re installed and that worked for them. I think at this point another computer will be my next option if I really need to wipe it clean.

are you making sure to plug the usb into computer first and then the phone?
You very well might be just fine sending it in as is.
If you want to be 100% certain tho, RSD/FXZ(or whatever they call it Lol, fastboot flash) is the way to go

So after talking with Ash and getting his and Nitro's advice it sounds like it is a driver issue for sure. Nitro and Ash pointed me in the right direction for the right drivers again. I will try again tonight. Hopefully tomorrow I can put solved in the title and I will post any links to drivers that helped me out.
Thanks to Ashclepdia and Nitro for the advice!!!! And all others that gave their opinion.

Hope it works!
Now back to playing final fantasy 3 on my nexus.
$16 for it but so far worth it if u like FF3 RPG game. Fun

Windows Vista/7 is notorious for not detecting stuff without the correct driver. I know i've had issues with my Bionic and Kindle Fire on my home computer running Windows 7. Those problems went away but before that I had to bring my stuff to work and try it off my Windows XP work computer which worked flawlessly on both.

Yep during my googling search last night I seen where a lot of people with Vista had the same issue. Damn drivers and Vista I am sure I will get it tonight. I have another computer in the house without vista if it comes down to it.

Thanks everyone specially Ash and Nitro. So my problem was the drivers. Nitro suggested I get the drivers from motorola support website. I deleted my old drivers from my Dinc2 and started over. Installed drivers from the motorola website and re install RSD lite again 5.7 this time. But the main thing is after I downloaded the device manager for the drivers when I plugged the phone in RSD could see it. I flashed it back to ,902 and now going to update it to .905. I feel much better now that I know it had a clean wipe. THANKS! To everyone that gave me suggestions. If anyone else is having this issue feel free to PM me and I can give you files needed.

You might have bad partitions. That might be pretty hard to fix with only rsd light you might have to make your own fxz flashable zip to repartition your phone. That would take some good coding skills.

There is a program that SamuraiHL has posted called House of Bionic. It's on the droidforums web site and you should be able to search for it there. Either that or google House of Bionic. It should bring up the thread where you can download this program. It's definitely a lifesaver. I would post the link myself but I haven't posted here enough yet to do that.
Hope this helps you out!

Make sure you download the latest drivers and the right rsd to be used. Link to find both http://www.droidhive.com/forums/ind...nks-in-op-updated-dailyformerly-whats-in-dev/
The reason for it error in out is because the phone doesn't have enough juice to do the fxz process. Make sure that battery has over 50% charge before attempting or do the usb hack with a cord that you will no longer be using.

I had this same problem. I used my warranty and got a new bionic. I blame Verizon and Motorola for not giving us what we want with an unlocked bootloader. Personally, I feel they should support the rooting community and be able to reinstall the operating system when we mess up, similar to how we can reinstall windows on a computer. They can even charge $50 for the service and be able to do it in-store from a computer. Not only could they make more money, they wouldn't have to replace as many devices.

You blame Verizon because you voided the warranty and ****ed up your own phone? Blame yourself for buying a phone that was known to have a locked bootloader to begin with.

I would have to say that this is the reason there will most likely never be an unlocked phone sold again for VZW. By doing this you are making everyone look bad! You break, void warranty, then you should have to buy another one. If you don't like my statement don't try something you apparently have no knowledge to do.

Relax guys don't jack the thread for people that need the info
