From .39GB to .40EU - RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I guess I nearly bricked my phone this night but I was able to rescue it.
BUT instead of running the .40 EU Retail version it is now running the .39 GB Version (as it was the only one that I could Flash over the old one).
Anyone knows how I can get back to .40 EU ?
Thanks,
Patrick

Just flash 32EU with RSD LIte and then update it.

Bad Idea!
He only can go back to 32 with an unlocked Bootloader. And even if he's unlocked he have to delete the complete "Motoboot" line in the 32er XML, before he can flash it through RSD Lite 6.1.4.
After that he can official update to 40.

HSD-Pilot is correct.
I can't flash 32 over 39 - guess I'll have to wait till a .40 EU file comes out so that I can flash it over my .39 GB ?
Are there any problems that might occur as long as I have a .GB version running??
I haven't yet insertet a SIM card so I don't know if there might be problems with providers or anything like that :/

[Q] Please help in unbricking Atrix HD MB886

Hi
I have been playing around with my Atrix HD for quite a while now, installing almost all custom roms out there for MB866 (Found Gummy and Carbon to be the best, batakang and holoblur never worked for me).
Restored back to stock using RSD Lite many times (after editing the xml file, no problems)
The bootloader was of course unlocked during "all that".
Now here is the problem. After restoring to stock 4.1.1 (98.4.20.MB886.ATT.en.US) using RSD Lite, I updated to 98.5.38.MB886.ATT.en.US (small 6.2 MB Update recently released).Worked fine till here.
Then I downgraded to ICS and it also worked fine. What made things worse was when I checked for updates via About Phone--> System Updates and it prompted for an Update 98.4.20.MB886.ATT.en.US (the same i used to flash via RSD). But when the download finished, the phone is permanently stuck in fastboot mode with the following message:
----------------------------------------------
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (s)
10.9B(*) (sha-2e68372, 2012-11-17 23:33:08)
eMMC Info: Size 8GB
Device is LOCKED. Status Code:0
Battery OK
Transfer Mode: USB Connected
downgraded security version
update gpt_main version failed
Failed to hab check for gpt_backup: 0x35
failed to load GPT
CID Read Failure
Invalid CID Status 0x69
No SP Partition found
Fastboot Reason: Invalid GPT
----------------------------------------------
You can see the phone is locked and RSD Lite doesent work at all giving "phone returmed fail" or " invalid partition error (battery is charged atleast 70%).
Any help in restoring the phone to "something" will be highly appreciated.
One of the problem is that i cannot find stock files for the latest 98.5.38.MB886.ATT.en.US update anywhere
Secondly is there any way to unlock Bootloader in fastboot?

"fastboot oem fb_mode_clear" should get it to stop booting into fastboot mode
The problem is the gpt partition is security locked and one of the fastboot commands thrown is to lock the phone into fastboot mode for every boot until the flashes are done. The command above is the one used to revert the first one (fastboot oem fb_mode_set if you're curious). Your bootloader isn't, or shouldn't I should say, locked again. The RAZR HD does the same thing if you directly flash a fastboot without removing the bad partitions and commands for unlocked phones flashing non-stock fastboots. The bad ones are the gpt partition and the oem fb* commands....there are a lot of guides that explain this and Mythtools (in AHD Developer forums) will do it all for you.

fastboot oem fb_mode_clear doesnt work, i tried it before as well, mythtools also cannt help as device status is locked and if rsd cannt flash it i believe myth also cannt.and the reason i say its locked is because it does not respond to any oem command.
it probably got locked after the ota which failed
if i could find fxz for 98.5.38.MB886.ATT.en.US, it may be restored otherwise is there any way around to unlock bootloder from fastboot??
these are the only two options i can think of amoungst which later is has the least probability.......

There isn't an fxz for that update yet. The one I would be able to make wouldn't include the correct gpt partition because I've flashed the Nextel fxz and none of the other gpt partitions from our stock fxz's will flash on my phone (there's a security lock on that partition). Though I know that between two or three of us here on xda, an fxz could be made with all the correct partitions from the update.
If you're positive that you were unlocked then just flash the Bell or Nextel 4.1.2 fxz's. They're not vulnerable to the heartbleed exploit which is the main reason that AT&T released the 98.5 update to begin with.
Have you tried "fastboot continue"? You might get lucky and the phone will at least boot up. And tried booting to recovery? Boot menu?
You can only unlock the bootloader from a rooted, running phone with ADB enabled. Can't do it in recovery or fastboot mode (unless you have a developer edition).

IIRC, the Nextel (Mex Retail) is the highest version we have unless the new AT&T one supersedes it.
I've only seen this issue one other time over at the RAZR HD forums. With the latest KK OTA they had, his failed and the phone booted to a similar screen you have. Nothing has worked for that guy yet that I'm aware of (haven't checked in about a week now).
Have you tried manually flashing an fxz, not with RSD or Myth (though Myth does flash manually via a script but it skips the gpt partition, IIRC). I'd start with the ATT fxz and if it fails manually then I'd flash the Nextel one...after that I'm out of ideas.

Came here after trying all that
Tried manually flashing but the phone returns FAIL on EVERY command, same with myth tools it executes but nothing really happen in the phone, dont know what went so wrong with the OTA
i am just confused if i should let it be or keep trying until i find a solution
COuld battery charge level be the problem, when it all started it was more than 70 percent and i didnt keep it on for long. it says battery ok but dont know whats the exact battery level as fastboot oem battery-status or voltage level are also restricted
Well, it seems that skeevydude told you all I want to say
Solved: Using Nextel (Mex Retail)
Thanks all for your replies
The device is alive now after restoring to Mexican Retail using RSD (editing the xml file and deleting ONLY the two lines having getvar)
Myth Tools never worked, RSD DID!
BTW the mexican retail is much much better than the ATT version because:
It gets rid of the ATT bloatware
SPecially the att address book
Hotspot is working out of the box
its speedier
android version is upgraded (4.1.2 instead of 4.1.1)
provides an option of manually switching to 2g/3g
and much more
thanks skeevydude, nextel was the last option remaining anyway...........and it automatically fixed the gpr issue

Isn't it already stated somewhere that if you are going to downgrade or change versions, you need to delete those lines anyways?

Yes it is, but thats only for upgrade, if downgrading the gpt line also need to be deleted, as i was not downgrading, only those two were required to be deleted which need to be specifically mentioned to avoid confusion

It is worth a shot for me too!
I have RSDLite and attempted to flash. It gives me error about unknown <getvar>. Deleted those line(s) according to another post I found.
Then everything passes but I am stuck on the Fastboot Flash Mode?
God I will be happy when uncle same gets through with my son so he can help is ole man, lol.
---------- Post added at 06:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:55 PM ----------
PROGRESS! I recalled skeevydude saying to stay alway from front USB ports and moved to back one and I now also have the Mex Retail version working. What a relief.
Now the bearing question is should I move on to another version like carbon or holoblur?
If ok to stay with this version, meaning will NOT get busted out by AT&T by using hotspot?
What do you recommend skeevydude?
Thank you so so so much.

I never advise anyone to flash a different carrier or country's ROM, but since you already have...
It is probably because you have installed custom recovery. So FIRST, figure out exactly which country variant you have flashed to (eu, de, gb), then flash just the stock recovery.img (from the Full 4.4.2 SBF for the country variant you are on) to the phone using fastboot. It will probably install afterwards.
If it doesn't, you may need to also flash the system.img (using mfastboot, not regular fastboot) from the same SBF/FXZ -- this will un-do any changes you have made to /system that might be preventing the OTA from installing.
Good Luck

There is no leaked 4.4.4 full SBF yet. In a couple weeks, maybe a month it will probably be released.
As long as you never downgraded from a higher version to the german 4.4.2, you can take the OTA without risk. You will need stock Recovery, no Xposed, and no significant modifications made to /system.
Assuming you are full stock and haven't made modifications, the OTA should install without issue.
We will need more details to properly advise you.

If you used RSDLite and fully flashed the SBF to your phone, or used mfastboot and flashed ALL PARTS to your phone, you are safe to take whatever 4.4.4 OTA is pushed to you.
If you only flashed "parts" and have mixed versions (system.img from one rom, no-hols.bin from another, etc), then you need to be careful.. or if you have one version on your phone and try to downgrade it to a lower version.
As @samwathegreat said, there is no leak of a 4.4.4 SBF yet, (well the Verizon one has but we would not recommend flashing it on anything but a Verizon XT1060 phone)
The guys that maintain http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=0 do a great job FINDING the full SBF files, and posting them as soon as they get their hands on them. But since that site isn't owned, operated or supported by Moto, we have no way of knowing how long it will take for the SBF's to show up.

If you have flashed modem files from a different rom than the rest of your phone, any OTA will likely fail its pre-validation checks.
Mixing parts of two different roms isn't advised. Taking updates can fail, brick your phone, or cause other unexpected results.
Sure, there are one or two who say they've done it and are "fine" but we've seen enough posts to know the next OTA, next time they flash, they will likely encounter issues.
My advice. stay with what you have, and wait for the 4.4.4 SBF for the model/carrier you have, and fully flash it. It is the SAFEST way to go.

@KidJoe:
my position is to have flashed in manual ALL PART of SBF 4.4.2 en.DE
Need only to reflash the modem from 4.4.2 TMOBILE because the gsm phone doesn't work (no signal)
so I don't make any mix with more roms. only stock en.De (all parts) and the modem from tmobile.
I received the ota update for 4.4.4 retail en.DE ...
do you think it's safe to install, or as you said, await the full firmware 4.4.4 SBF ?
do you know where, eventualy, I can find tmobile modem 4.4.4 to flash ?
if can't find the 4.4.4, the 4.4.2 tmobile modem (that now I use with success ) do you think is good or not to works in 4.4.4 firmware en.DE ?

hi Daniel,
I flashed manual in fastboot ALL part of 4.4.2 files from SBF en.DE (not use RDS)
as you say me, the radio modem doesn't works and flash the tmobile modem (like you send me) and all is OK
now received notification about OTA to 4.4.4 (en.DE)
so, you think it's safe to download ota abd update ?
if radio not work, reflash manual the fsg.mbn and NON-HLOS.bin that I've, right ?
Thanks for reply Danny
EDIT :
I'm on 4.4.2 en.DE stock but ROOTED an with xposed modules and TWRP recovery ....
any problems to install ota ?

Hello,
I have the same problem. I bought a US Moto X Dev Ed. and flashed the german retail with the instructions from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/development/update-xt1058-to-android-4-4-2-uk-t2628381
Is it right that I should not accept the OTA because I deleted the modem lines?

[Q] Moto X AT&T is STUCK on Bootloader! [HELP]

Hi guys, yesterday i tried to install ROM "XT1058_GHOST_RETBR_5.1_LPA23.12-15_cid12_CFC.xml" to my moto X 1058 At&T (android 4.4.4) with RSD litle.
It failed and now i only can turn on the phone and it goes to bootloader menu and i cant do anything. I can connect it to my PC and RSD detect it but i cant put any kind of ROM ((
I know that my moto x is not dead yet i have hope u.u :crying:
Please someone can help me? :crying:
PS: SORRY MY ENGLISH
PS2: I ADD A SCREENSHOT WITH SOME DETAILS ABOUT MY MOTO X after DO what i explain.
First off, you have an ATT XT1058... why are you trying to flash XT1058_GHOST_RETBR.... which is for RETAIL BRAZIL!?!
Is your bootloader locked or unlocked?
EDIT: never mind, I read here -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=61834453&postcount=78 then you have a locked bootloader...
so my advice...
Try to boot into stock recovery, and wipe cache, and reboot.
If that doesn't work.. try a factory reset (also from inside stock recovery) NOTE: this will delete your data, apps, pix, music, anything on the phone's /sdcard... etc..
Next, would be to try to re-flash Stock ATT 4.4.4 SBF using mfastboot (see the requirements and option 5 in post 2 of -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/faq-how-to-prepare-ota-update-carriers-t3126425 )
If that doesn't work... then you have no choice but to wait until the 5.1 SBF for ATT XT1058 leaks and is posted... and flash that using mFastboot.

Into bootloader any option work, only for get pictures from IMEI, ID, etc.
I will try re flash stock ATT using mfastboot cause trying do this in RSD doesnt work
One friend told me he solved his problem unlocking bootloader by a program that unlock it automatic, then he instaled android 4.4.4.
My question is that if can i do what you are telling me cause in stock recovery appear 30.BE unde AP Fastboot Flash Mode (s) line. And it mean 30.BE= android 5.1 brazil so maybe i have to do a downgrade?
i dont know if you undestand me.
Thanks for your time
NEW INFO
i will writte more datails:
After i tryed install failed Brasil ROM the info about my cellphone is the next:
Bootloader version: 30.BE (sha-34b7ccb, 2015-04-22 12:57:17)
Bootloader is: LOCKED (and can´t be unlocked by motorola steps cause my moto x is AT&T)
Thinking about it and looking for a lot places from 2 days i have next conclusion:
How now i have bootloader version "30.BE" i have two options:
First: Downgrade android but i need unlocked bootloader for do it.
Second option: Wait until ROM android 5.1 by AT&T (i read update is ready but i cant find ROM, i only found ZIP for put in my internal memory and update android from old android but i cant access to my internal memory cause my PC does recognized like memory device)
What do you think guys?

I can tell that English (or at least USA Engish) isn't your primary language, so hopefully you can understand me too
An ATT XT1058 that has never been updated to 4.4.4 or above can use Sunshine to unlock the bootloader. Since you've had 4.4.4 and above on there, you can't unlock.
30.BE is a 5.1 bootloader. That is part of your problem. Somehow, parts of the XT1058_GHOST_RETBR... 5.1 SBF did flash to your phone, but not all of it..
Are you sure you didn't unlock your bootloader? Boot to FastbootAP/Bootloader screen and tell me what you see.. Do you see LOCKED STATUS 0, or Locked Status 2, or Unlocked Status 3?

Your first option is not correct. You can't fully downgrade, even with an unlocked bootloader. You can partially downgrade, but that isn't 100% safe. There is a very good chance it wont work, or you'll brick even worse when trying to downgrade, or later when taking the OTA.
For your second option.. Correct. As of yet, the FULL SBF of 5.1 for ATT hasn't leaked. Only the OTA Zip file which is an incremental update, not a full update, and therefore can't be used to recover in this state. Sit tight. Its only a matter of time.
I know you probably want to use your phone NOW, so waiting isn't a good option... but it is likely your only SAFE option right now.

I never tried to unlock bootloader and before start to trying to upgrade to 5.1 brazil, bootloader appear "DEVICE IS: LOCKED" and now appear the same "LOCKED AND STATUS 0". (check the image if you can)
The question now is: maybe you know if the solution is wait until 5.1 Android for AT&T or even if i have this ROM maybe exist a possibility that my moto doesn't get fix? Maybe the question is hard to confirm 100% but maybe it is a 90 % possible that my moto get fix with this way.
I love this phone but i was too newbie and I confused ways to change ANDROID by mys XPERIA and HTC's phones.

I hate to say it, but yeah, you're likely stuck until an ATT 5.1 SBF is posted somewhere.

As I said earlier... flash using mfastboot (see the requirements and option 5 in post 2 of -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/general/faq-how-to-prepare-ota-update-carriers-t3126425 ) just use that 5.1 SBF... and I would consider including the mfastboot erase userdata command, or doing a factory reset after you flash... Yes it will erase your data, apps, SDCard, etc...

The Original was the one which came with it, and it was going mad, 0%, 65% 97% 15% off , back on etc.
Then I ordered one off Ebay and it doing same, it is Chinese brand I would think.
The problem I got is, I flashed the XT890 back when the EU version was the only GB closest, since no GB version of 4.4.2.
Now when I try RSD Lite to reflash or go back to 4.1 it fails.
I had a folder with the Items back from 2013 or 2104 maybe, but can't remember the process and so I need to Unroot?
I have tried putting FW on SD but it fails there too.

Hello you could a have a look at this thread about your battery issue,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198774
What i have learned is that you can not downgrade the firmware if it is older than the current software on the phone.
So if you have android KITKAT 4.4.2. you cannot flash to jellybean or ice cream sandwich and they are the only firmwares available at the firmware centre.
If you have a unlocked bootloader it is possible to reflash downgraded firmware but do so at your own risk !
Have you tried the Motorola app called Smart Actions for battery ?
You could try to intstall this firmware software from your SD card, using TWRP,
Blur_Version.990.43.74.XT890.Retail.en.EU.zip?dl=0
and this one too,

When you said early in the post that you have changed the firmware on the system motherboard (The problem I got is, I flashed the XT890 back when the EU version was the only GB closest, since no GB version of 4.4.2.) how did you flash the phone with KITKAT EU ? did you do it with system menu OTA update via the internet ? or did you flash it with firmware from a file downloaded from the internet ?
I think the problem will be the firmware that you installed because when you flash firmware you need the serial number from under the battery or where the number is located to get the right version of software for the phone.
It has to be the same or newer for it to work properly, or the phone to operate correctly.
So you could only downgrade the phone to the original stock rom firmware for it to operate and function correctly.
Is the bootloader locked or unlocked ? because with a locked bootloader you will not be'able to downgrade to original stock rom firmware. With locked, the firmware is stuck as it is unless it is original stock rom on the system motherboard which you can easy reflash with RSD lite recovery software.

It would have been from this Thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/razr-i/help/qa-razr-xt890-4-4-2-eu-ota-update-t3094784
I asked at the start here, what is the Process, as all I remember is, I got the files from here back 2015 by the looks.
Then either updated by RSD or put on SD and done it.
Since mine is a GB phone, there was no GB version and I had to use the EU one.
I have no clue now if I locked or unlocked it.
I had to boot up my old XP machine and it had all the Adb and Moto files in one folder. but none of those files seem to work, eventhough RSD shows my Phone on USB on the XP machine, but not on the Win10 machine I have now.
I retried RSD and I took out a few lines from the xml and it bricked my phone.
I did recover it and the onlything that seemed to have changed was the baseband.
How can I Downgrade or reflash the FW?

I managed to get to CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBRTEU and it has gone back to 4.1.2
It see's CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-29_S7_USASMIJBRTGB.xml on my SD as an Update, not sure why?
Is it not the same?
Since doing this, my battery only lost 60% in 2 1/2 days.
Clearly either the FW got bugged or an App was doing something.
I have installed a Security software and it came up with phishing warning, but how would I know if that was true with that FW version?

Hi the firmware should be fine with no issues and you installed Jellybean 4.1.2 european version, my phone is the same as yours but with KITKAT 4.4.2. and the battery discharges about the same. Install eset security from google play store or any other website, and install DU Battery Saver Pro and other DU software for android, these are all available at the google play store and you should have no problems with the battery.
