[Q] razr i problems - fastboot menu

Hi guys, I am having an issue i cant seem to resolve on my razr i. apologies if this has already been covered in another thread (or 10, which is usually the way with these things because nobody reads the other threads) I have been through a load of other threads but cannot seem to resolve my issue so i started my own.
Right, I have switched from iphone to razr and am not stupid when it comes to jailbreaking etc so thought rooting the razr wouldnt be a problem. when trying to root it it failed and i am stuck at the fastboot menu, however, everything on the menu is disabled so i cant use it. i get the usual message:
fastboot reason: flash failure
fastboot max download size: 100mb
usb connected
if i try to use anything on the menu i get the following message:
fastboot menu disabled.
my phone is not unlocked and not rooted. i have barely done anything to it other than install a couple of free apps. i am unable to progress past this screen. the phone is GB and is on 4.0.4
any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. again, apologies if this has already been covered, none of the solutions i found were able to resolve my issue. as i said, i had no problems jailbreaking my old iphone, i am a bit of a n00b when it comes to droids...

AW: [Q] razr i problems - fastboot menu
Are you able to run fastboot commands ? Cause in that case you might be able To unlock bootloader and reflash the software .

**edit

Had the same problem, I used the recommendation in this thread, 5th post and it worked, but afterwards need to re-download apps from PlayStore:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36612151
Follow the instructions exactly - you need the drivers and RSD lite on Windows PC, then connect the phone via usb cable that came with it; and you'll need a full unzip program (cost) so you can move the unzipped files into RSD lite. Get the right flash file though - there's a list in the linked post if you don't want GB retail which I used. Important: this only works for ICS 4.0.4 and don't try to downgrade to an earlier version than what's currently on your phone e.g. v.39 to v.31, for example.
Good luck.

AW: [Q] razr i problems - fastboot menu
If the solution from mervluk does not work (It didn't work for me either) , you should try if you are able to use the fast boot commands .
To do that simply connect your phone to the PC. Then download fast boot , if you do not already have that. It is in the .zip from the RAZR I root thread.
The go to the downloaded folder. There hold shift and perform a right mouse click. Then choose" start a command prompt here "or something similar (don't know how the option is called in English).
Then type in
fastboot reboot
When the phone reboots you might be able to unlock your phone and flash the software.
BUT BE AWARE! YOU WILL LOSE YOUR WARRANTY!!
So you better try the other solution first. This should be your last option.
If you don't know how to unlock the bootloader look in the RAZR I forum or pn me .

Glad about that. This phone can be a bit of a so-and-so. ics is being updated ota to Jelly Bean 4.1.2, which I've avoided so far to keep fm (although not activated on the supplied software). I did succeed with unlocking the bootloader (loose warranty - important) following the whole complicated procedure on Moto's website - but couldn't myself use the shortcuts on here. (Then had to set up again and re-download everything from the PlayStore). It required the Moto-supplied key. I then rooted, though I think the JB ota download unroots again? You can't use RSD lite with JB.
With JB the procedures are different, and a modified JB European (not for use with GB) firmware is now available on another thread which is impressing some posters. But I think just be a bit cautious as there does not appear to be any fix for the "service code corrupt" bootloader error yet. Looks like the options are very restricted whilst no-one understand the interaction between Google Android and the intel atom chipset.
I have a network unlock key from one of the commercial suppliers (cellunlocker.net), but haven't needed to try and use it yet!

[Q] is there a way of rooting a moto g whith out a computer

No. You need fastboot to unlock the device an install a custom recovery. After that, almost everything can be done on the device

Well i tried to unlock the bott loader and it wouldent let me i tried to open the command prompt and it wouldent open

Please, precisely follow the instructions given at https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-a. You should at least know how to download the required software and use the command prompt. Be aware that rooting your phone and performing root actions may damage your phone beyond your capabilities to repair it.

it wont let me open the commad promt

Well. I can think of two possibilities here. The first one is: you are sitting in front of a computer that has restricted access and probably doesn't belong to you. Or, (and don't get me wrong, we all started at some point) you lack the knowledge to perform these actions.
So, go ahead an make your computer obay you. Smash the OS till you have to reinstall it. Do it again. And again. Install Linux. Be annoyed. Install MS. Be more annoyed. Solve all the computer problems of your friends and family till you wish you never acquired these skills. Then, dear sir, you know how to root your phone yourself.

This post made me chuckle - Thank You!
Because I know you guys hate posts saying thanks - OP could always try TowelRoot (disclaimer: no idea if its been patched for Moto G, don't really care, plus I wouldn't recommend root at all - for the time being at least - if the command prompt eludes you...)

All right finally got the command promt and ever thing and i went to tthe mottarola web page to see if my boot loader can be unlocked and it says ur device in not able to be unlocked what do i do

Currently, and possibly in future too, there's no way of unlocking Moto devices without approval from Motorola.
P.s. Maybe a typo? The number is quite long. Try copy'n'paste.

Root and Unlock Help

I have read the numerous tutorials on unlocking and root my mi5 with no luck. I am using windows 10, which seems to cause some problems. I have tried to locate the Kedacom Driver to no avail. My computer does recognize the device and even makes the recognition sound when I put it in fastboot mode. I did apply and was granted the unlocking rights by Xiaomi, but when I use the unlock tool it always fails to work. The loading screen goes to 50% then I hear the device disconnect and it cannot finish the process. Any help would be appreciated.

First check if you have a supported version of MIUI on the phone.
A lot of the shops send the Mi5 with a (sort of) custom rom installed and then you cannot unlock it.
So check if you have Global or Chinese rom (or developer versions).
If so, make a note of the error you get and do a search in XDA forum or MIUI.com forum.
If that does not show up anything, come back here and tell what the error was.
Or start here with the error first

Need help

First you must unlock bootloader from official motorola site.
Google unlock moto x 2014 and do it.
Second you must download adb and fastboot to your pc.
Third with adb flash twrp.
And last flash supersu with tuttorial from xda .
Keep walking.

Thanks. Any chance you can attach links for downloads for PC and also files. If u can add tutorials I can follow those too. I have rooted couple times before but if I do the moto that's my actual phone and I don't want to mess it up. Will it mess with my plan or screw me over in any way? I've only done phones I don't use.
Thanks again for any help

So Ive been reading and need a little help.
1. I have moto x2014 (is it pure edition?)supposedly. (It's at&t white front wooden back 8gb. Believe 5.1.1) I need to know so I can do the first step.
2.downloads to adb and fastboot for PC? I was hoping someone had a link so I know I don't download anything bad.
*Edit* I used this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118
3. How to flash? And need the zip packs/files for twrp and SuperSU? (Which I put on root of SD card?)
*Edit*
Also by doing this will my phone operate the same?(no extra step to put kernal/os on?) I just want to know how to root and add Sony software to use the app. Thanks again for anyone's knowledge
*Edit*
I'm having a tough time navigating the forum, thank for the help people

Thank you I will read and try. And as far as if I root the zte maven 2 I would just get the drivers for zte and switch the product name in command lines correct?

First off thanks for your help and anybody else who may contribute.
ive been trying to listen and follow lol. anything with (...) is stuff
i added
First you must unlock bootloader from official motorola site.
Google unlock moto x 2014 and do it.
(the link you added brought my to a page i click next and tryed to sign up
it said i had an account so i signed in with the email on my phone an then it
brought me to a page that wasnt available. So do you have another link or is
there something im missing. im having trouble unlocking it)
Second you must download adb and fastboot to your pc.
(i downloaded
*minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.2_setup application
*motoroladevicemanager_2.5.4 application)
Third with adb flash twrp.
(few things.
*adb is just command prompt right?
*flash? i know means install sorta of. do you have command line?
*the link had three things to click on
1.this was on white screen
58337e4962e12d37f740a417601db4e3 twrp-3.1.1-0-victara.img
2. twrp-3.1.1-0-victara disc /image file
3. twrp-3.1.1-0-victara.img.asc /asc file)
And last flash supersu with tuttorial from xda .
(once again, flash? im assuming i just need command line like,
adb install supersu.apk.
*also files i downloaded were
1. update-supersu-v2.76-20160630161323 /compressed zip
2. root-boot-6.0-xt1097-mpes24.49-18-7 /compressed zip)
***So is there any files im missing to root?
How do i unlock my bootloader or whatever it is? (link didnt work for me)
What is flash?(i think install)

it says my device does not qualify to unlock bootloader. so yea I don't want to give up but that killed my hopes. I can get into fasboot flash mode and have boot mode selection menu and it says device is still locked. I got the link to work and used fastboot oem get_unlock_data used their program to have same layout for unlock code and it says your device does not qualify for bootloader unlocking. if anyone can help thanks

Some variants of the Moto X 2014 cannot be unlocked. Put the phone in Bootloader Mode and:
fastboot getvar all
Copy and save all the info into a Notepad file, then go to the Moto/Lenovo Forums here:

I figured I could do it manually or a custom firmware would help. if I install twrp somehow as a recovery is there a way to root of that? I just don't get y I cant unlock bootloader. I understand that I cant, but don't get how there isn't a way around it. once again thanks people. this is a bummer...........................

Pc unable to detect Redmi 4

Hi I have Redmi 4 Indian model. Since it's been laying idle I was gonna try custom ROM s for the first time. But I am having an issue. I am unable to detect this Device in any PC. On the other hand other devices can be easily detected. I have tried in USB Debugging, installing Redmi 4 ADB Drivers, installing MTP In Cdrive. Nothing worked for me.
Please anyone help me with this. Becoz of this I couldn't unlock my boot loader and pretty much depressed. I couldn't find a single workin video on YouTube also. This is my first post

Guys please help me. I am in dire need for reply. I thought this thread forum will be helpful.

send some screenshot on your device manager of your PC or laptop . I'm willing to help ^_^
#CorvusOSLover

When you connect your device to pc, go to device manager and find your device in that list its probably disabled there. try enabling it.
if that doesn't work install mi unlock tools and it should install required device drivers and your device should get detected and then you can unlock the bootloader and flash custom rom.
