fastboot FAILED (command write failed (Bad file descriptor))

Hi there,
Need help with showthread.php?t=1785010
Code:
$ fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

at first glance it sounds like your file is corrupt, have you already tried to redownload it?
as long as fastboot stops immediately and does not actually write stuff in your phone you should be safe anyway

Check the file for any possible download errors.

This happened to me too, it was just that the file was not there, I had SU and path was not correct. So the next person who comes here looking for the solution for this.... yes you! do a "ls" or "dir" and see that the recovery.img or boot.img or whatever you are trying to flash is even there. :victory:

Did anybody find a solution to this problem, yet??
BTW: it says "error: cannot load 'xxxxx.img': No such file or directory" if it can't find the file. "FAILED (command write failed (Bad file descriptor))" seem to be a different issue. Maybe inside the phone, when it can't find the partition it should flash. No idea. However, I'm stuck with "FAILED (command write failed (Bad file descriptor))" and appreciate your help!

As you can see, "fastboot reboot" works, but not "fastboot flash". This dies with that pesky message "FAILED (command write failed (Bad file descriptor))".

This "-i 0x413c" part makes the device selection specific. It's not needed if there is only one device connected.

I've now tried 3 releases of android platform-tools. I had hoped that one of these included the fix posted on XCSoar forum (for the original reason for this thread) but I'm not convinced that's so. I tried both:
1) platform-tools issued with ubuntu 14.04
2) platform-tools_r25.0.5-linux
3) platform-tools_r26.0.0-rc1-linux.
When trying to upgrade my Dell Streak 5 beyond 2.2, none of these work, but of course they fail in different ways to fastboot released with ubuntu 14.04 (which is my main machine, I don't have a windows machine).
Running platform-tools_r25.0.5 or platform-tools_r26.0.0-rc1, I get:

Interestingly when I run /(25.0.5 or 26.0.0) :

the DS5 doesn't reboot.
However if I run the 14.04 fastoot, ie:
$ fastboot -i 0x413c reboot
the DS5 reboots.
Has anyone else come across these problems? If so what's the solution?

Android OS gone! /system partition empty; fastboot and recovery flashes fail.

tl;dr Android OS is missing from my Nexus 6 for an unknown reason, fastboot isn't working (nor is flashing via recovery), /system and /firmware partitions read 0 MB in each. Help!
Context
My Nexus 6 is a replacement I got in the beginning of February after some speaker issues with my original N6. The device was unlocked, encrypted, used TWRP as custom recovery, and rooted (with Chainfire's SuperSU). I was running stock 5.1 (shamu-lmy47d). My root apps were few: AdAway, TitaniumBackup, SuperSU, Solid Explorer, and Cerberus (no account activity with Cerberus in the past two weeks). I'm familiar with fastboot, custom recoveries, flashing, etc. I've been doing this on my Droid X, Nexus 4, Nexus 7, and Nexus 6 for years and never had anything like this happen (nor have I really run into issues I couldn't figure out).
Situation
While using Sync for Reddit, some apps started crashing. Then Sync stopped loading anything. Then seemingly every app on my device reported a crash. Thinking a reboot would fix whatever was going on, I rebooted my phone. The boot animation didn't end after ten minutes, so I shut my phone back off and got into recovery.
I tried rebooting to system from TWRP. The first thing I noticed was that TWRP did not prompt me for a PIN. When I tried rebooting to system, I was greeted with the following message: "No OS installed! Are you sure you wish to reboot?". Confused, I went to the backup page to check partition sizes. TWRP showed "System (0MB)", "Data (56975MB)" (that's 57GB--I probably had 20GB maximum).
TWRP logs read as follows:
Code:
Data successfully decrypted, new block device '/dev/block/dm-0'

I'll try any suggested commands as nothing appears to be working anyways. At this point, I don't care about my data. It's encrypted anyways, so it's probably unrecoverable regardless of if I get my phone working again.
I think the partition table somehow got destroyed or the flash memory failed. What's curious is that /data, /boot, /recovery, /EFS are still intact while /firmware and /system are not. I blame hardware because the issues started while the OS was booted (what on the OS level has permissions to write to /system and /firmware?) and nothing writes to the partitions anymore (they can't even be mounted!).
I'm looking for help in any way, especially the in the following:
(1): Finding the cause of this issue and squashing it if it's a bug in Android, TWRP, or some other software.
(2): Getting my phone back to a working state. Again, I don't care about the data on the device.
(3): (if 2 fails) getting my phone locked and removing TWRP so that I can RMA it--Google has already offered a replacement, but I don't want to send it in unlocked and with TWRP (may cause them to charge me for the replacement)​
If this is indeed a software-caused error (again, I don't think my actions of using Sync for Reddit caused this issue), I'm terrified that this may affect others who are less capable of seeking help, or those who have critical data on their devices.
Thanks for reading. Please offer any guidance you may have.

kudos to you for providing so much detail for your problem. It's a rare sight here. It really helps people who are trying to help you.
I have a feeling your device is completely fried as even fastboot isn't working. I remember I had a similar problem with the OS disappearing but I solved it with a fastboot flash. If that doesn't work for you, I'm not sure what can. But then again, I'm not a seasoned tinkerer when it comes to android partitions. Let's wait for someone with more knowledge to share their opinion.

@rootSU do you have any ideas here? Can he mount in TWRP and possibly push the files needed or is TWRP too broken at this point?
Thank you for providing such details with the errors. I wish everyone was so thorough.

Thanks for the replies so far @exb0 and @Evolution_Freak!
For the record, "fastboot devices" and "adb devices" do work. It just appears that any thing operating on the file system does not work. Strangely, I was able to "adb push" a ZIP over and tried to flash it from recovery (flashing failed, of course). I was also able to move the ZIP around using TWRP.
I wonder if it would be feasible to move files into place manually and get a working system again by doing that. I don't want to do that unless it appears to be my only option and there's a good chance of it actually working.
I don't frequent XDA, so help getting knowledgeable community members would be greatly appreciated.

Even if you got it working, if it went *this* bad, you don't want the risk of futures failure. Flash as much stock as you can after formatting each partition using fastboot and return it.

Good point. I think my plan is to get it back to a locked state without TWRP. But how to get there, I have no idea. As you can see in the logs, I can't flash anything with fastboot :\ How can I format the partitions? I might be able to do that.

You can try and also:
fastboot format system
fastboot format userdata
fastboot format cache
See if you can then flash system.img, userdata.img and cache.img separately.

Also, which version of adb/fastboot are you using? if you are using the one from the Android SDK i would recommend running the sdk update manager and making sure the SDK platform tools are the latest version

@rootSU I believe the OP already tried "fastboot format system" and got the error "Formatting is not supported for filesystem with type 'raw'."

Had your OEM lock succeeded, with no OS installed, you could have inadvertently bricked yourself. It's in your best interest to leave it unlocked until you're sure you can boot into Android and ensure that the "allow OEM unlock" stays ticked after a reboot. If you'd like more information on that, click the top link in my signature.
First things first though, let's get you up and running.

Just as an FYI, the most current version of ADB is 1.0.32. The Ubuntu repositories do not contain the up to date version.

Correct. I had to download and install the full SDK to get the latest version. Couldn't flash the OTA with the version that was available from Ubuntu repositories.

If this just happened out of the blue, your internal storage probably has (hardware) issues, flash back stock boot and recovery and return it. Unless you have some data you really want to recover, what's the point of trying to fix it? You can never trust this device again.

I've made a very fast rom, without a lot of stupid apk and with ext4 system for modifing /system.
You must say thanks to other people, I'm only a stupid "aggregator"....
But thanks also to @Cameo164, after his experience i've made a more little system.img, changing the partions size.

- Install busybox (you'll find in my zip)
adb install busybox.apk
- Install advanced settings for wear http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/advanced-settings-t3341722
adb install com.sssemil.advancedsettings.apk
It's very usefull for change the screensaver brightness and other things
- Install Kernel Auditor http://forum.xda-developers.com/android-wear/development/app-kernel-audiutor-4-wear-t3126122
adb install KernelAudiutor4Wear.apk
For enable/disable cores and other things
- on your smartwatch if you have issue, reboot and clear data to google.play. framework (with advanced settings), reboot again
This rom is without a lot of things (like lg wathfaces, tutorial.apk and other things that i don't remeber, i'm sorry).
I use other watchfaces (with facer, this is mine: https://www.facer.io/watchface/hLzCJbTR3Z?draft=true )
Don't ask for add apks, or other things, thank you!
I suggest disable with advanced settings under apps also Bug report sender com.google...wearable.bugreportsender
Remember:
Don't change kernel or rom because you'll corrupt the new ext4 partition and you'll lose your data.
In any case before make a backup,
So, when you'll change rom/kernel you must install again the right kernel and the right rom.
If you have adb error ($ADB_VENDOR_KEYS is not set; try 'adb kill-server'), from recovery:
On your pc search adbkey.pub
cd user/.android
adb push adbkey.pub /data/misc/adb/adb_keys

Hi, thanks for your work, but for me restoring your system in twrp fails. It show's me an "ERROR: 255" close to the end. I re-downloaded the backup files, so that I can be sure that the files aren't damaged, but still no luck. I'm using the twrp.img you provided and did it like you described.
And btw. When I'm right, it should be called "adb push" not "adb pull".

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2236620&page=48
Did you format your system, cache and data?
Did you mount system in recovery?
Or try installing before leedroid rom.
Yes... is push! I'm sorry!

Yes I did. But it's not important if I did it, because TWRP does it before restoring anyways.
What difference would it make if install leedroid rom before restoring, when TWRP formats /system before restoring your backup ?

If you read the link that I've posted you'll see that the issue is in some files on your phone (probably).
Leedroid use ext4, mm only f2fs (I don't remember name exactly) on system. So, probably, if you install leedroid rom, you'll format your system partition to ext4.

To have ext4 I don't need to install a non-mm rom like leedroid's. I can just format /system to ext4 in TWRP.
Yes I have read it. The file that causes problems is "/system/usr/icu/icudt55l.dat". I removed it from the backup file and pushed the new file to the watch. And now the restoring works. But I ended up with a bootloop (tried with SuperSu flashed & without SuperSu). I don't know if it's because I removed the file or if it has any other reason.
Thanks for trying to help me.

Did you wait about 5 mins? Because the first time is very long!
Try also with several reboot!
Which boot animation you see?
After I'll see that file!!
But I don't understand... in your log which error is it?
Did you correct permission? In any case you can't remove I file from backup and restore.
Because if you format system and data you don't have any files, restoring stops for an error rewriting your files?
I've restored full m1d63x stock and then I've checked my backup and steps and I didn't find any stop...

Yeah I waited 30 minutes, rebooted, waited another 30 minutes and again, again...
The bootanimation I see on watch is in the attachments but because the watch screen is too small there's only "ndroi" instead of "android" visible. And there's that darker font shadow, like a fade-out animation which is going through continuously.
I know that I can't just delete one file, but with that file I can't even restore the backup.
Then I get this error :

Can you send me the file icudt55l.dat from your running watch and then I can try replacing the file in the backup?

I'll send you icudt55l.da after, when I come back at home. But is very strange...
Anyone has this issue?

I tried everything I'm able to do : First pasting your new icudt55l.dat file into the backup, just gives me the same error as before. Then I tried restoring the backup without the icudt55l.dat file and push the file with adb push to /system/usr/icu, just gives me a "no space left on device error" and at last I tried to extract the system.ext4.win file on the watch with adb shell instead of twrp, this gives me a "no space left on device" error too, but it seams that I does it anyways. But still stuck on bootanimation. I just can't get this rom to work on my watch :|

After I'll try tu upload another backup...

Ok i've created a system.img_sparsechunk1 flashable via fastboot
Backup everything.
Then download: http://www.mediafire.com/file/d3yo1opb4i7j7at/system.img_sparsechunk1
Reboot into bootloader and:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase data
fastboot erase cache
fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk1
Flash also (I don't know if is necessary for you, but you must use mine boot.img) boot.img http://www.mediafire.com/file/w11byay60nwy5xb/boot.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Reboot into recovery and
Wipe data, davlink and cache
Reboot
How I've obtained this system.img_sparsechunk1?
I've extracted my system.img with: dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 of=/sdcard/system.img
but when i reflashed via fastboot I had an error because was bigger than system partition.
So i've compressed with SparseConverter v1.0.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2749797
to correct size: sparseconverter /compress system.img .\ 2684354560
and I've obtained the righht system.img
I hope...
In any case i've reflashed on mine and is ok

Thanks a lot for your hard work but my watch still refuses to flash the system -.-

I have tried it with the latest fastboot version for windows and linux too, but both fail on "size too large".

Still fastboot gives me the "size too large" error.
I can flash the stock "M1D63X_system.img" successfully and it boots too.

I don't have any ideas too, I would be very good if anyone else could try your rom and tell if installing and booting works. Then we would know if it's my watch's or my' fault or the rom's fault.

Since when twrp is mandatory to flash a ROM ?
I don't get what do you mean by partially. And link is working fine.
Edit: my bad, link was broken, updated.

flashed all of this twice and it just boots to twrp and asks for a password not i did flash twrp first from the other forum for the moto g fast

Make sure you have downloaded the build after I updated the link.
About twrp asking for password, expected behaviour after a data format without booting a ROM to populate encryption bits.

Ok so I just flashed back to stock and started over but now it just reboots on repeat I’m going to try to reset everything again and start over

Are you in fastboot or fastbootd?
To get into fastbootd, you need to type
'fastboot reboot fastboot' in a cmd window while you are in the regular fastboot screen.
Then flash the rom.

good afternoon onmi rom and twrp root works correctly I want to increase the volume of the headphones vendor / etc mixerpath when saving changes I get an error some solution thanks

Couldn't get this working. Probably because my rav is LATAM distribution (rav, not rav_t). When flashed from fastbootd, I got a bootloop. Thankfully TWRP is working fine, so I could boot stock from the other A/B slot.

Success!
I had a number of issues while flashing this, as follows:
- I flashed TWRP before doing anything to attempt to flash Omni. As it turns out, fastbootd doesn't work correctly with TWRP installed, so I had to restore to stock before trying again.
- The Omni GSI has to be flashed to slot A by doing fastboot set_active a before you try to flash the partitions.
- When flashing the 20200823 build linked in OP, using the instructions listed, I got a "not enough space to resize partition" error. I attempted to resolve this by doing fastboot delete-logical-partition system_a and fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a - this was the wrong thing to do as it caused an issue mentioned earlier in the thread ("no such file or directory" when trying to flash those partitions), and I restored to stock to resolve this.
- I was able to get the partitions flashed by doing them in a different order than listed in OP. I successfully flashed by doing boot, product, system, vbmeta in that order.
- Once the partitions were successfully flashed, rebooting the device caused it to bootloop, showing the Moto logo for a few seconds and immediately rebooting. I resolved this by flashing an older boot.img from the Telegram channel (attached to this post). Flashing the older boot.img with the product, system, and vbmeta from the 20200823 build linked in OP got my device booting.
Thanks to the folks on Telegram for the help in getting this going.

Great work

Have you tried updating your fastboot binary? I used to use minimal adb and fastboot until this device. I had the same issue, and had to update the binary to get it to work properly.

1. Starting screen casting/mirroring causes a reboot.
2. The in-built screen recorder also causes a reboot when started.
Dodgy Screen Recorder Fix :laugh:: Download and install the attached apk below, change the quick setting tile to the new one at the bottom of the list, and you should be able to record. (Its the screen recorder app from BlissRom, nothing malicious )
3. Let me know :good:
If you have a major bug to report that has not been reported already, please take the following steps to report it to us. It will save you, Team Resurrection Remix and me quite some time.
Download the MatLog app from the Play Store.
After downloading the MatLog app, go to the app settings, and change the log level to Debug.
Clear all previous logs and take the exact steps to produce the error you are receiving. As soon as you receive the error (probably a force close), go straight into MatLog and stop the log recording.
Copy and paste the entire log either to Hastebin or Pastebin
Save the log, and copy and paste the link into the thread with a brief description of the error.
​

To update to the latest version without wiping:
UPDATING FOR GAPPS/MAGISK USERS
1. Install the images as usual in fastbootd
2. Power off and boot to TWRP
3. Install GAPPS and/or Magisk
4. Reboot, profit.
UPDATING FOR NON GAPPS/Magisk USERS
Skip steps 2. and 3. from above.

Cant figure out which drive i uploaded the old files to at the moment
But heres the 8.6.9 May security patch update.
Not much new, added a KCAL enabled kernel as default, and added a color control app (root needed), fixed face unlock (g power) and added the moto clock widgets.
RR - May Patch - Google Drive
drive.google.com
TWRP zip and fastboot d images, no gapps only. Theres also some flame gapps in the folder too that i use and work well.

I can't install this ROM. It gives me the following error when flashing in fastbootd:

I've checked everything and I've got enough space on the HDD. What could be happening?

Try flashing product instead of system first.

Always appreciate the work you put in! I'm currently running the unofficial Lineage OS build, and I'm waiting to flash something new until an official ROM is released for this phone. Are you working on making any of your ROMs official? I know its a ton of work, but if nobody's planning on making anything official any time soon I may end up switching to one of your unofficial ROMs to get the latest security updates.

Personally, I'm not going to make official builds, but I believe the crdroid Dev is going to try.
Not sure about the other guys/girls.

I am SO HAPPY that resurrection remix has just come out for the Moto G Power. I have been waiting!!! I just saw this today, but I can't seem to get it to work.. As seems to happen when people are trying to root the moto G power.. The touch screen will stop working.. I did get mine to root, using this page:
Messed up trying to root
i know there are other threads on this topic. But after going through them I cant find the fix. I unlocked bootloader and tried to root. Its seems to have worked, but the touchscreen no longer works. I used lmsa to download the stock rom...
forum.xda-developers.com
But I do not know how to apply the same fix after I try to install resurrection remix? I do not have touch screen working after I load.
I am using adb, not sure it twrp is available for moto g power yet, and if that would be the way to get it to work?
I'm using moto g power, sofia variant (usa).. XT2041-4

I tried again and I'm actually getting the following errors:

@cxskate
You aren't in fastbootd. You are in fastboot mode. From the screen you are at in the above screenshot, type fastboot reboot fastboot.
You should reboot to a new screen with fastbootd in red across the top.
Flash the images there.

I'm still having a problem...
My phone does not enter into FastBootD mode... The screen on my phone doesn't change at all when I enter the command, and my computer adb window reads the following:
Please any advice? Very much appreciated.

Awesome! What are the little things? I'll add to the bug list

I'm going for a Degoogled setup and this rom is the first one that worked with microg without hassles. I installed minMicrog standard and Majisk, toggled the baked in signature spoofing, and was up and running in minutes. VERY AWESOME!

Hello ! I would love to try your rom, but when trying to flash boot.img, i got this error : "FAILED (remote: Download is not allowed on locked devices)".
So i realized my bootloader was still locked.
To unlock the bootloader, i have to type "fastboot oem get_unlock_data", but it returns "FAILED (remote: Command not supported in default implementation)".
Do you have any idea how to fix this ?
Thanks

Google 'unlock Motorola bootloader'
You need a code from Motorola.

TX for answering. Thats what i did, and i was reading this official Motorola tutorial to get the code. It asks to type the command "fastboot oem get_unlock_data". So im stuck here for now...
I know this is a bit off topic, but i wonder you managed to do it somehow in order to test your build.

Did you tick the OEM unlock allowed option in developer settings?

Trying to figure out how to load gapps on with adb now??
I actually was finally able to enter FastBootD mode using a different method I found on youtube, but wasvstill getting errors when I tried to flash.. FAILED (remote: No such file or directory)
UPDATE I copied all the new files to the adb folder on the C: drive and i got it to work.. Got RR up and running, but still..
