I originally had CM 10.1.3 on my Atrix hd but i wanted to try the unnofficial pacman rom, so i went into CWM recovery, made a backup, factory reset, wiped /system, cache, blah blach but when installing pacman rom i got status 7 so i didnt feel like using a zipping program to fix it, then i went to reboot recovery and bam, stuck on the unlocked bootloader screen, i tried ALL fastboot options, none will get past this unlocked bootloader screen and the phone tuns on all by itself and there's no way to pull the damn battery, please don't tell me my phone i screwed. What do i do?
IM literally on the brink of crying
Chill. You probably just had a bad download of the zip. Do you have a backup from a previous ROM?

Why did you reboot recovery? Unplug your phone, press the power button to turn it off, then hold both power buttons and press the power button until a list comes up, go into recovery, wipe user data/system and restore your backup. We have an official PAC ROM now, use that.

It seems like when you hold down power to shut off your phone, it won't stay off, correct? This means you need to quickly press the button combo (Power + Both Vol Buttons) as soon as it shuts off, it should come up with a list of black and white options. If you don't have a Nandroid recovery, then you will use Vol Down to highlight the AP Fastboot option and Vol Up to select it, if you do, then select the Recovery option and proceed restoring from there. When in fastboot mode, use RSD Lite to flash back to a stock firmware. Your phone is far from bricked. If you keep rebooting to Bootloader Unlocked screen no matter what option you choose, you may have to look into buying or making a Fastboot Cable. This will force your device into Fastboot mode so you can flash a stock ROM, I doubt this will be necessary though. If your phone can turn on, it isn't hard bricked. You're in the clear, don't worry.

Just go into your firmware zip, delete the old .xml, and drag in the new one. Start the RSD flash, sit back, relax, make sure (if you are using one) that your laptop is either connected to power or has sufficient battery life, and that you don't unplug your cable during flash.

I tried that and it just goes straight to the unlocked bootloader screen, so how to i make a fastboot cable?
You can look up a guide on Google. It requires a bit of rewiring/soldering of your Motorola cable though. If you aren't comfortable with that stuff, you can buy one for Atrix HD for like $5-$10

Great! The fastboot cable should force it into fastboot, just plug it into your PC during the time your phone is off. You may have to let it charge for a bit. From there its only a matter of flashing stock ROM.
It may be called Motorola Factory Cable or Motorola Fastboot Cable, either one. Just make sure you get a Motorola Atrix HD one lol

The first time I flashed an ICS ROM on my D4 it bootlooped as well. I had to wipe data and cache and then it booted right up.
Yes I know I gotta wipe both cache and data and I done it twice, but still nothing show up.....it is just the blank black screen, no any animation at all...

I'm freaking out because mine is stuck on the black screen too... I was trying to flash the XML file for Fastboot. and it just went blank (blackscreen) can someone please help. I don't know if letting the battery die is the way to go? I have it connected to a laptop at the moment. I know they said that the XML file takes a whille, but it has been an hour. I do not have any warranty as this was a trial unit given to me.
I'm not that much of a Noob, but I'm not sure what to do at this point. <<<<---- Fixed using Volume down and Power to do a "battery pull" Although I almost Removed the battery physically.
Can you still boot into the unsafe system?
If so, is the unsafe system currently ICS or Gingerbread?

ICS leaks are not fastbootable.AFAIK, unless you just meant that you were trying to fastboot flash to 6.13.219 before flashing to ICS. Either way, here we go.
Go into safestrap, safe mode menu, then disable safe mode, and restart your droid. I am assuming you at least went into safe mode before trying to flash. If so, this is why we love safestrap...makes sure you have a working OS. Let it boot up. Did it work?
If not, don't panic, there is still another solution, even if you didn't safestrap your unmodified OS (just make sure you do this next time!)
If you did backup and safestrap saved you, ignore this block below for now.
Code:
[LIST=1]Download [COLOR="Red"]VRZ_XT894_6.5.1-167_DR4-1_M1-219_1FF_01[/COLOR].
You might already have this if that's what you were trying to fastboot to. It's 1.18GB in size.
Download is here: sbf.droid-developers DOT org/cdma_maserati/VRZ_XT894_6.5.1-167_DR4-1_M1-219_1FF_01.xml.zip
(change DOT to . Can't post links yet.)
[*]dl.dropbox DOT com/u/76950573/RSDLite5.7.msi Download RSDLite and install it.
[*]Download the Droid USB drivers:
motorola DOT com/Support/US-EN/Support-Homepage/Software_and_Drivers/USB-and-PC-Charging-Drivers
Install them. [COLOR="SeaGreen"][B]RESTART YOUR COMPUTER.[/B][/COLOR]
[*]Turn your phone off.
Hold the two side volume buttons down together, press and hold the power button down.
Hold all 3 down until you get to the bootloader.
Press volume down to get to "recovery", press volume up to select it.
You'll see a sick looking android/red triangle icon soon.
When you do see him, press both volume buttons down at the same time.[/list]
[*]Volume down to "wipe data/factory reset", power button to select (not volume up this time.)
Confirm, delete everything. When it finishes, select "reboot system", press the power key to enter that choice.
Immediately press both volume keys together after the reboot begins and hold them until you see the bootloader menu again.
[*]Plug your USB cable into your phone and connect it to your computer.
Use volume down to select "AP Fastboot", volume up to confirm the choice.
Open RSDLite on your PC.
Press the "....." icon in the program, browse to and select the 1GB+ VRZ_XT894_6.5.1-167_DR4-1_M1-219_1FF_01 you downloaded earlier.
[*]Click "decompress/start flashing". Now wait for half an hour or so.
I believe there will be several phone restarts near the end, this is normal.
You're now back to stock GB. You no longer have to fastboot to this in order to go forward to ICS.[/list].
Now to get to ICS...
Go here. droidforums DOT net/forum/droid-4-hacks/212307-droid-4-utility-updated.html and download the tool. You don't need anything else but the main tool.
Grab your preferred ICS leak. 6.16.217 is the most recent: droidforums DOT net/forum/droid-4-roms/218610-ics-leak-6-16-217-update-zip-boot-img-crc.html
Flash to 6.13.219 if you didn't just do that.(follow the steps in the CODE block above).
Open the droid 4 tool (.bat file) after extracting from the archive. Plug your phone into the USB. Set it to debug mode. Install safestrap 1.09, root the droid.
Unzip D4 6.16.217.zip. Rename boot.img to ICSFIX.img and move it into the droid 4 utility subfolder named \files\
Copy Blur_Version.6.13.219.XT894.Verizon.en.US.zip (leave it zipped.) to your SDcard.
Go into safestrap and make a backup. Turn on safe mode. Reboot.
Reboot into Bootloader, select AP Fastboot. USB should still be connected and the droid utility open. Select option 16. (Errors might occur. This is fine.) Flash your blur.zip from sdcard. Follow prompts on utility. It will reboot, do some animations. When you see the motorola logo, let it do its thing. Once the moto logo fades out, force a reboot (hold VOL keys & power down.) Now hold vol down and press power, boot to bootloader, and select recovery. Press both power buttons when you see the dead sick android logo. Update from sdcard. Select the zip.
Let it flash. It'll reboot.
Open the droid utility. If you flash to another ICS version, UNINSTALL safestrap 1.09, and then install; the new version 2 one. Make backups. Root your phone. Use the last option on the droid utility to flash between ICS versions.
You cannot use it to flash between something like AOKP or CM9 to a normal ICS version (Yes I actually tried this, lol).
Sorry for wall of text, hopefully this helps you in some way, whether you're still bricked, or still want to go to ICS after fixing your brick.

I bricked my tablet after I tried to change my font using font installer by jrummy?
It asked me to restart for changes to occur so I figured if I restarted on my own it would work the same way so I hit cancel. I restarted about 1 minute after I hit cancel.
My tablet will boot up to the AT&T "Rethink possible" screen (after the animation).
It will get stuck there with a pattern of light vibrations between a couple seconds each.
Currently running the stock AT&T ics rom posted in the android dev section for i957.
I've tried to boot into recovery but the Samsung screen doesn't come up until I let go of the buttons therefore leading it to reboot again.
Also tried to go into the emergency download mode ( power, up, down) but it didn't work either.
I appreciate all and any advice, please and thank you!
My device is rooted if that wasn't already implied, I will provide any other details if needed, please help!!
Thanks again!
Are you sure you can't get into recovery mode? Hold power and volume up buttons, etc. Does Odin recognize the device?
Do you have a custom recovery, and if so which one, or is it stock.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I957 using xda app-developers app
keep trying to get into download mode or recovery. should be possible. the font change will not affect recovery.
I was also performing a backup with titanium backup when I restarted does that make a difference?
I have clockwork mod recovery.
From experience, I can only go into recovery if the Samsung logo pops up for a milli second and I let go.
I actually haven't tried to see if Odin recognizes my device but I assumed if I couldn't go into download mode it wouldn't.

If you can get into recovery do a factory reset. That should get you out of a soft brick. You'll have to re-install your apps though.

Didnt see if you worked your way out of this or not. You may have to hold 3 finger salute (power, up, down) for up to 16 seconds. My guess is that covers the 8 seconds to reboot through any hang up plus up to 8 more to boot to menu.
Still no luck, the computer is not detecting my tablet.
I also wasn't restoring, I was just backing up my data. I'm letting it charge for now, anyone know what else I should do?
I really can't enter recovery OR download.

I had to hold the 3 buttons ( power, vol up, vol down) for a couple seconds.. like 6 seconds
THEN hold power and vol up for 2 secs
THEN back to power, vol up, vol down.
I did it by accident cuz I was frustrated but it ended up working so all is good
Thanks for all the help guys!!

Rooted my atrix hd, flashed safestrap, wiped, flashed cm10 and got a bootloop.
Now My battery is low, Cant get anything besides a Motorola logo and "device is locked, status code 0"
"battery low", "boot failure".
Anyway, I have tried booting into recovery with holding down power and volume up/down, no luck.
Anything I can do?
I have rsd ready with a stock sbf ready to flash. I need a working phone!
thank you very much.
And yes I have searched for answers on the net and this forum, among others. the phone won't charge. ugh

Well, my friend had same prob as u (stuck & battery low with installed safestrap in phone) and here is what i did to help her:
1. Open bootmenu (power+volume up+volume down)
2. Select BP Tools (the last choice) and it will boot the safestrap directly. I saw that in safes trap, phone could be charged normally and I let it be there until baterry was about 25% and flashed.

I'm new to the forums and new to all this, Problem is, I rooted and unlocked bootloader on Atrix HD. Set up SafeStrap as recovery. Everything checked and working. After letting SafeStrap install Cyan 10.3 and rebooting, phone entered CyanogenMod boot screen and become stuck. I didn't reset and wipe all stock settings and cache (yes, I know that should have been an obvious step and I'm paying for it now). Figured I could just go into SafeStrap and make the quick fix.
Seems that I'm unable to enter my custom recovery, instead I'm lead to the familiar bricked android stock recovery. No options to access stock rom or fastboot menu. Tried installing a different recovery, but fastboot on PC is unable to find device. Got the factory cable and still no fastboot.
I see in the forums that if you can power the phone up up can fix it but I seem to have the one phone that wont go into fastboot or recovery.
Can anyone help? I seem to have tried it all, am I beating a dead horse??
Literally the exact same thing. Almost word for word..

Well if you read beforehand as I said in the other thread.. Safestrap is NOT for a unlocked bootloader. And are you using an actual factory cable or the cable that came with the phone (oem) there's a distinct difference.

Can you get to the screen that shows you white options on black background? Turn the device off, then hold both volume buttons and press the power button a few times. Once you're at this screen, go down to "AP Fastboot" with volume down, and select it with volume up. Then use Myth or RSD or manually fastboot back to stock.
Maybe the safestrap thread op should put a big sign or warning telling users about not using safestrap no more.. I see noobs are the one flashing still safestrap when that is useless now. People like that search on google will find that thread and will start from there as they dont know and that was actually an old method to go around on atrix hd.

Well some people can't unlock for various reasons that's why it says for locked bootloader in the title now. But they have to realize the rom selection is minimal.
To the op are you sure your holding both volume buttons down on restart? Not letting go of one? Because if you can power it on and off I see no reason you can't get to the boot menu.

Don't want to go into the details, but if I wanted to I could run two 4.3 roms with SSR. All you really need is two roms that run the same kernel.
Yes I understand that part skeevy as I did asked myself few times about if that was possible and i find out that it was by the same parameters you mentioned. But what I mean is at the stage we are I will see safestrap as not supported anymore is useless for us since we can unlock the bootloader.

At first I thought the button didn't work, but if I hold all three it goes to the dead android, so to me the button does work. The phone just doesnt seem to want to fastboot.

The problem is i cant see anything on the phone at all!!! I cant see the boot menu (the black screen menu) the bootloader was unlocked at the last time but i cant say anything about it right now...
I all know is the phone power on somehow.. by looking at the device manager i see QHSUSB_DLOAD port is connected and i can see the same thing in RSD Lite too..
So when i try using RSD it says "the phone failed to switch to fastboot mode"
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Once the bootloader is unlocked, it can't be re-locked which is good.
Were you trying to install a custom or stock rom using RSD? What rom were you running?

Holly shh...!!!
I just found out that the ROM i was trying to install, I mistakenly tried to flash a custom ROM for Motorola Razr HD !!! not Atrix AD((( what the f.ck i did !!!!
I downloaded the wrong rom (
The only life sign I am getting is the USB sound and the QHSUSB_DLOAD port in the device manager.
does it help somehow?
Did you try the Myth Tools: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2262726
Not sure if it will help but it may be worth a try.

You can flash RAZR hd roms to this phone. Just not through rsd as I said before.

No reaction with volume - , power button only blink green point when connect to PC or use power, vol+ - buttons , RSD lite shows device connected but "switch to fastboot mode manually"
if someone could please help
I went through the same thing this weekend and probably bricked my phone 6 times and killed one SD card. What eventually worked for me was holding the power button down until the phone vibrates, then quickly holding the power button and both volume keys until the fast boot option came up. It took 45 tries before I got it. From there I was able to boot into my ClockworkMod recovery and flash my new ROM. ProBam Kit Kat. I hope this helps

I hold the power button down about 2 minutes but no reaction no vibrate need more time?
If it doesn't vibrate afer ~10 seconds release the button and try again. It can take several tries. As stated above, as soon as it vibrates let go and immediately press both volume buttons and the power button; this will get you into fastboot where you can choose to boot into recovery.

What your battery level at the last time you saw it? My difficulties were partly caused by low batt (I believe it doesn't charge in fastboot or recovery) I've had to pull batteries and manually wire them to a charger before.

It was about 53% and it was in fastboot mod so it wasn't charging I try to flash it to start phone in normal mode to charge but when it was flashing in 1/23 files it failed and because battery low and then it is like now no reaction only when connect to PC blink green on phone and connected :X
A factory fastboot cable would probably help you in this situation. You can look on youtube on how to make one or you can buy one for about 5 bucks on eBay. It will both power your phone and force fastboot mode when plugged into the computer
