What recovery are you using?
stock recovery cant get any other ones to work
Try this. Follow the directions in the OP. It'll take about 5 mins to get back to a box stock D3.

Then ROM Manager is clearly the issue. That link gets you to box stock software. I'm not a fan of RM because I feel that unless 110% understood, it can cause way more headaches than it fixes. What do you use it for? What changes did you make after flashing to stock?
used rom manager to change battery icon 3g icon signal icon and the notification bar backround
I don't think that MavROM is compatible with Rom Manager tweaks. I believe that they only work with CM based ROMs. Try reflashing to stock, rerooting, and reROMing it. Don't make the changes and see if the issues persist.
i tried reflashing to stock like 10 times and it never fully goes back to stock
How about going to cwm through odin and deleting your catch data and your delv catch. I had the same issue when reverting back to stock ( it wasnt fully there) but when i erased all the data and delv catch it reverted to the stock rom properly. Just a thought

Well, the previous is strange, because I've used that to recover from all different causes of bricks and bootloops and reboots and etc. All took me back to box stock software...
Anyways, I would flash back to stock-ish with it, re-root, install CWM, boot into recovery, and then wipe /system /data /cache /dalvik cache.
Using X + Power then VOL Up + Down, you can get into stock recovery and wipe data and cache. This puzzles me though, because that quick SBF wipes data, system, and cache.
Just for my curiosity, what ISN'T stock after the quick unbrick method?

Oops, bumped Thanks trying to quote this. When the DOS-looking window prompts you to press any key to exit, and I'm assuming you do, do you let the phone go through it's process where the yellow bar inches across the screen and completes the reset?

Are you sure you have the latest drivers installed? Head over to that thread one more time, re-download the quick unbrick, boot up with M + Power, select AP Fastboot, open the shortcut for "CLICK HERE - Something something something", allow it to go through it's 20 or so lines of actions, and when it says to press any key to exit, do so. Now just let the phone sit there while still plugged in (IIRC, this is what I did last time). If this all fails to return you to stock settings... 1. I'll be surprised 2. I'll nand backup mine and make a video for you of quick unbricking mine and everything it does.
If it does work, please don't change things in ROM Manager, IIRC, those tweaks are only for CM based ROMs, and not Mav.
Help! I'm a newbie at this forum , but I just a droid 3 today , and while trying to get into recovery mode , I got stuck in a continueious boot loop. D:
I Installed the rom manager , got an ics rom , installed clockwork mod etc , then went to reboot into recovery , but it would just do a normal reboot,. I then found a safestrap .apk , which was I guess a modified version of HashCodes. But when I went to reboot , it just got stuck in a boot loop. Any Ideas? I'm trying Hashcodes SBH flash or whatever to reset it to factory settings , but unfortunatly its a 500mb download. So thats gonna be an hour. Any suggestions?
Was Clockworkmod uninstalled/removed before you added Safestrap?

Boot with X+Power, then both volume keys, and wipe data from withing Android Recovery. I'm not a fan of ROM Manager on the D3, it only seems to cause headaches in terms of ROM flashing.
Okay , I'll try that in a second. As SOON as I got finished with the download , the phone died. ( left it in the fastboot mode thinking it was charging...apparently not...D: ) So I will post results in about 20mins. Also , is there any other way to install roms without it?
I've done alot of ROM flashing to windows devices and just older things...and I always liked the simple installers without any problems etc. Anything like that on the Droid 3?
And no , it was installed. Haha , but with the strap , I don't think it installed completely? It kept force closing the installer right before it got to 100% ( I thought it got to 100% ). I didn't know if that was normal , or what. I couldn't open the app after that...
Now , I;m having a different issue. The phone died , and I've had it on the charger for a good 20-30mins , and it won't even go into the bootloop now. It will turn on with a battery with a question mark in it , but it won't do anything else. Help? Haha
You're moving too fast lol
Once you get your battery charged, it'll probably be best to start with a fresh SBF flash (an SBF that is appropriate for your phone, of course).
Then root with one of the many tools mentioned in the development forum
Then install the safestrap app, then run it, and hit the install button. It will say in the safestrap app if the safestrap recovery has been installed (the first line in the app window, I believe)
If safestrap doesn't say that it installed (in that first line), you may have to separately install Busybox installer (its free in the android market). Then you can try to hit the install button in safestrap again.
With safestrap installed, you can restart phone.. you should see the safestrap splashscreen on bootup - hit Menu to go into safestrap recovery.
In safestrap recovery, it will be in non-safe mode (your phone's current stock rom).
Use the volup/voldown button to navigate, and power button to select.
Go to the safe menu, and hit toggle safe zone (or whatever its called)
It will move the necessary stuff and get you into the safe zone. Once that's done, there will be no rom on it yet, so you can then install a custom rom from zip.
Hope this helps

The phone does not charge when it hasn't booted. You're gonna have to buy or jerry-rig a usb battery charger. You can take any old USB cable, strip the wires, and tape the black wire to the (-) terminal on the battery, and tape the red wire to the (+) terminal on the battery. Charge the battery for a maximum of 3 hours.

Thank you Chatoic* I did that last night after I realized the battery didn't charge. Then flashed a new SBH etc. Rooting worked fine , and now I get to the menu just fine on bootup. But now I'm having another issue. I go to Rom Manager , and try to install my AOKP ICS from the SD card , but when It reboots and goes to the menu etc , I don't know what to do to install it. It makes a backup I think? But doesn't install the ROM. Sooo any Ideas? Am I missing a file or something on the sd card? And it says Error partitioning the SD card with a backup etc...
IMO, ROM Manager only causes way more headaches than it fixes, at least on the D3. I would recommend a folder simply called AAAZips (This is what I use, it keeps it at the top for less/no scrolling in Boot/SafeStrap) on your external SD card. Then install either SafeStrap or BootStrap, as you prefer, and reboot into recovery this way to backup/flash/wipe/etc.
Moral of this, IMO, ditch ROM Manager.

Then I just boot into recovery and do what to install the .zip?
And what do I put in the AAAzip folder?
Nevermind I think I got it working. WAY better then rom manager.....
I'm glad it's working. It may not be as nicely polished as ROM Manager, but flashing through CWM/SS from SD card seems to work better.

I'm noticing that the modded safestrap kicks me out of safe mode when flashing and then causes me to bootloop, maybe because of a problem w/the flash related to kicking me out of safe mode or something. Try hashcodes safestrap apk from his blog site and see if you have any more luck with that.
Well, i wanted to change my rom, CM 7.2, with DjangoManouche 1.2 and used the rom below..i backed up, and when i started flashing, it said that"this is not a ROM"..i..kind of panicked and after a minute, when i seen "nothing moves" i removed the battery. When i tried to start the phone, it only shows the LG logo..but does not boot(i waited for just 1-2 minutes..). I hope someone could help me.

I recall reading something about using NVFlash to force the stock rom on and allowing to recover from a bricking.
I'll defer to someone with experience in fixing bricked phones though.
Thank you...now..it wont even start, even when i plug-in the charger..it had pretty low battery..i am pretty ducked..
You have to reflash it with KDZ recovery method. Look up google and you'll get it working. I did this the first time too (what a bad joke to say "this is not a ROM")...
I'm sure you can still enter Cwm if you hold down volume- while pressing power button until it the Cwm menu appears.
Sent from my Optimus 2X using xda premium
First of all, don't worry, O2X is pretty unbrickable...at least in the level you're messing with it!
If you have recovery installed, you should be able to reboot into recovery : press and hold vol down button, then power button until you see blue halo of LG. before that, download another ROM and put it in your external SDcard. Flash that ROM.
You can also download and flash the original firmware of LG by using smartflash. You can find those in ANDROID DEVELOPMENT section!
Also check KDZ recovery!!
Thank you..it worked with recovery mode..i had back-ups. I got a bit scared because when i pressed vol_dwn+ shut down button..after i release the 2nd button, it turned off...but i menaged to make it. Again, thank you for help.
====================
well, today i tried again to install a new rom(temasek's cm7 last build)..but i couldn't..after it is installed it get's into boot and stays like that..i tried to AOKP and it worked..my backup also worked...i just can't get it, why these roms won't work?

The common mistake for new people is that they restore entire nandroid backup after flashing ROM. CWM doesn't have option to backup DATA only, so you have to restore DATA from nandroid backup using Titanium Backup etc.
Try this:
1. Restore into fully functioning ROM(+data) if you don't have already
2. Reboot to recovery
3. Format /system
4. Flash new ROM
5. Clear cache and dalvik cache
6. Check if phone successfully boots
7. Flash Gapps if needed.
8. DO NOT DO ANY RESTORES AFTER STEP 1!!
9. If it doesn't work out, try another ROM. There may be some error with the file!!
A couple days ago I decided to load the new Safestrap Hashcode linked to. Everything went very well, and I have been running Maverick 4.5 in slot 2 as my daily driver. I was able to get back into Safestrap using the menu button. I also loaded Gummybear ICS into Slot 3, but went back to Maverick.
Yesterday I was going to go back into Safestrap and switch to the Gummybear/slot 3 rom to check it out.
I can't get back into Safestrap at all. I am stuck in the Maverick 4.5 rom.
One thing I did notice and do not understand: When I use Titanium Backup or the Reboot Widget to "Reboot into Recovery", I get a Yellow Triangle with an Exclamation Mark and the Android guy.

That's the stock Droid 3 recovery. Using a reboot recovery will lead to that, and will not allow Safestrap's bootloader to intercept the boot and activate Safestrap recovery.
I haven't tried running Safestrap 3.05 myself, since it's still not official, but I do know that you cannot reboot recovery as you describe to to get into Safestrap for any version of Safestrap.

thats the stock recovery
now. do you still get the boot menu splash page where it asks you to input the menu key or continue?
if so hit the menu many times or hit on the screen the hit menu for recovery image section, as it shoulod also work.
maybe my next question is silly or already tried, but have you tried to try it with the charger disconnected?
some times when my droid 3 is connected, the touch screen gets un responsive o registers more than input
hope this helps
I now have the same problem. I see the splash screen and it vibrates and reacts when I press the menu button, however it does not boot into safestrap v3.05.
From the JB topic it seems more people have this problem!

For those with trouble entering recovery with SS 3.05
The EASIEST and most DEPENDABLE way I've found to boot into the new SS 3.05 is;
Shutdown the phone
Slide open keyboard
Hold M and press the power button to boot the phone (still holding M, release when it boots the next step)
Immediately a menu pops up
Press Volume DOWN to highlight "BP Tools" (tap several times, be quick, if you wait too long, it'll automatically select what is highlighted)
Press Volume UP to select it.
Phone will reboot showing the M logo, then proceed into SS Recovery.

Had this problem today after creating a rom slot and flashing a new rom, this worked for me however I had to try it a few times. Once I got into recovery I wiped the rom and rom slot and ss3 is working properly now. Not sure if this was a rom issue or ss3.

When you run the OTA update to 906, it will remove the Safestrap bootstrap and will unroot as well. However, you can reroot with Motofail, then run the Safestrap app again to install recovery, and you slots *should* still be there. Perhaps making a backup of each slot before running the OTA would be smart.

i dont like the word "should"
ok i try to save the files in safetrap and try an OTA. yesterday the ota didn't run but i think i have to wait longer thar it starts the installation than the 10 minutes...
The slots are all stored on the internal storage (the mount point /sdcard) on the phone, so as long as you don't format internal storage, they should stay there.
I should note that I have never tried installing the OTA with safestrap 3.05 installed - I did it with 1.08. Actually, you may want to activate the stock slot, go into the safestrap app and uninstall recovery, and then try running the OTA. It's possible that the OTA will balk with a custom recovery installed - I don't remember, and, like I said, I never tried with Safestrap 3.05 installed.
You can also download the OTA, copy it to an external SD card, and manually run the update from stock recovery. See this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1643521
[edit] Sorry - that link is for an update from 890 to 906. I forgot that you were not on 890. Sorry about that...
I had almost the same problem with my phone, the diference is that mine got stuck on non safe system (Stock ROM). Initializing the phone with th Android Recovery (Turning on with the key "m" pressed down) and choosing BP Tools doesn't worked.
- Phone: Milestone 3 XT860 (Brazilian Droid 3)
- Carrier: Vivo
- Current ROM: Stock 2.3.5 - 5.2.440
I was very excited to install this update that released today, but after installing it, I can't sign in to my phone. When it boots up, it flashes the homescreen wallpaper, not the lockscreen wallpaper for a second or two then the screen turns black. If I hold the power button I can view the power settings (reboot, silent, airplane mode, shut down) and also if I double press the power button, which my camera shortcut, it opens the camera. Aside from these actions, I can't do anything.
My method to installing this rom was this:
Download the rom from xiaomi.eu website
use the built in updater where I select a rom on my phone and it automatically boots to recovery for me (I'm using TWRP)
Let it do its thing, and boot up, then when it boots the errors occur.
I tried wiping cache and dalvik, but no change.
Did I miss something? Is there something I should have done differently when updating my phone? Is there a special procedure in upgrading Android versions? (1.1.2.0 is first Android Pie version on my phone)
Thank you very much.
Edit 1: I have flashed a second time, this time flashing cache, dalvik, and data. I was able to get into MIUI and set up my device, but after I rebooted the phone for a separate reason, I am experiencing the same errors as before.
Edit 2: Not 100% sure because I switched ROMs, but I probably could have gotten it working by wiping /system as well.

Hey, by the way, what launcher are you using? This seems to be a problem with just the lock screen so maybe there is a weird interaction happening between the launcher and the lock screen. I was using Rootless Pixel Launcher.
Edit: one more question: did you do the same thing as me where I first flashed without formatting data, then you flashed a second time, that time formatting the data? I'm thinking it could also be just because we flashed it incorrectly the first time, future flashes are gonna be messed up.
Where's the download I can find only 10.1.1.0

My method to installing this rom was this:
Download the rom from xiaomi.eu website
use the built in updater where I select a rom on my phone and it automatically boots to recovery for me (I'm using TWRP)
Let it do its thing, and boot up, then when it boots the errors occur.
I tried wiping cache and dalvik, but no change.
Did I miss something? Is there something I should have done differently when updating my phone? Is there a special procedure in upgrading Android versions? (1.1.2.0 is first Android Pie version on my phone)
Thank you very much.
Edit 1: I have flashed a second time, this time flashing cache, dalvik, and data. I was able to get into MIUI and set up my device, but after I rebooted the phone for a separate reason, I am experiencing the same errors as before.

This stable ver has many problems. It's hasnt stable yet. Even when you could turn the screen on, if you use the 3 buttons as default, everything is normal, but if you use fullscreen gestures and reboot your phone, you will stuck in black screen again. Many friends and me have the same black screen problems. So my advice is you should stay where you are waiting for a real "stable" ver.
For all who want to use FSG in version 10.1.2.0 I would recommend the following workaround:
a) Startup freshly installed system
b) Select navigation bar as preferred method and finish setting up the phone
c) Download Magisk v18.0
d) Reboot into TWRP and flash Magisk v18.0 zip
e) Reboot to system
f) Download the free application "Fluid Navigation Gestures" and setup the same Gestures as in Stock mi8
g)Optional: In Fluid NG, choose "Hide Navigation Bar"
It doesn't have the exact same feeling as stock but is pretty close and I think it's valid as a meantime workaround.
