So i try to reinstall the rom, have download several tools but i cant do anything, after several intents to install roms i hace in AP fastboot flash mode, device is unlocked status code 1fastbookt Reason sticky bit factoy_fastboot. for a 2nd time but i can install roms, I dont know if phone bootloader unlock and cant check... I dont know if phone is usb debugging cause it wont load the system. I dont see any internal files from phone I also try rsd lite, but the same it says that it start doing the process but nothing else happen.. any ideas on how to get a rom install there..
thanks
SAME thing..
Please do help us...No recovery...No debugging...stuck at logo..!!
If you don't have an unlocked bootloader, I don't think you can use Myth or RSD to flash an ICS rom over a JB rom.
Did you load the latest Motorola USB drivers? When you connect the phone, run adb to list the devices. Does your phone appear?
not for me doesnt show any devices... and while trying to do other commands always get stuck ad *daemond started succesfully* but doesnt do anything.. also when trying to use motorola device manager it says it will update and never connect to server and close the app.
if i do fastboot commands like reboot-loader it does work it reboots the phone, but if i try to flash something doesnt it doesnt do anything.. i try using mfastboot also and the same happen.
Is there a way to flash a rom or something so i can fix this phone or it is dead?
On the Fastboot screen, if it says UNLOCKED in capitals next to "Device Status:" , then this problem is easily fixable.
Download RSD Lite from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2231249
Download Motorola Stock Firmwares:
Stock Jellybean for AT&T: http://sbfdownload.droid-developers...MB886_NII_TA-2-16-release-keys-NII-MX.xml.zip
Stock Jellybean for Bell Canada: http://sbfdownload.droid-developers...FFW-11-4-release-keys-BellMobility-CA.xml.zip
Open up your zip file and replace the .xml with the new XML you will download from this link: https://www.box.com/s/num1eshkf0c2or2h4160 You really can't forget to do this!
Launch RSD, connect device to PC, make sure RSD recognizes it. Navigate to your firmware file, select it, and press the start button. Sit back, relax, and let it do its work. It will take around 5-10 minutes. Do not unplug the cable, and do not attempt if you are in a situation in which you think you may lose power (especially if running from a desktop PC).
If RSD Lite won't work, then this thread will show you how to manually flash your stock firmware: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=40929335
Basically, you repeat all the instructions I just gave you and then manually input some lines in Command Prompt.
Help! My Motorola RAZR I XT890 cannot be "unbricked" and I tried several methods...
Hello!
I unlocked the bootloader successfully, then I tried to root my phone using The Razr guy method and I used the "RAZRi_Root_Windows" file, while rooting my phone went to the "warning bootloader unlocked" screen and it just loops forever from that screen, the bat file, showed that it successfully rooted my phone. I tried to fix it using rsd lite, but it never detects my phone, so I searched for a way to make my pc able to detect it, so I found I could use Intel xFSTK, installed it but still nothing it doesn't appear as shown in the tutorial, I even downloaded the dll file that it needed to run, but after running the xFSTK DLDR or something like that, the application is completely empty, and I saw it should show some tools to download something. Also tried using Linux Zorin, but it only says that my XT890 cannot be accessed and shows an usb error code.
I am able to enter the fastboot screen, the one you get by pressing POWER and VOLUME DOWN, also it charges my batter completely normal. Also my pc is able to show that the XT890 is connected, but only before installing the drivers and it shows the CD installer for the Motorola Device Manager and some other files (all this while looping), and if I enter the fastboot flash mode, it appears as "fastboot smi S", with a yellow triangle and an exclamation sign while in Windows device manager. It has Jelly Bean update from telcel (mexico), and I already have the xml.zip file to reinstall it.
I use windows 8.1 , and as mentioned Linux Zorin on my PC.
Could some help me with it...if you now how to fix it please list every single step on how to do it T_T, THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!
It looks like the root method changed something bad in your system partition and that's why it won't boot up. First thing to do is installing the correct Motorola drivers. When in fastboot the device should be normally listed and could be acceded by fastboot. If fastboot is working well, use rsd lite to recover it or flash the system partition manually.
If everything is working well, consider installing a custom recovery and flashing a SuperSU zip for root access.

Thanks for answering!!
I've checked on some websites that if the phone is not detected by RSD Lite it maybe due to a bug in the phone's driver that happens only on windows 8/8.1, so I will try to do the same thing on windows 7 and see what happens...
Hope it works...T_T

That could be it.
I just noticed u have unlocked your bootloader. That means u have used fastboot earlier to get the unlock code into the device. So the drivers should work perfectly if u are in the good device modes. Try to flash the system_signed image manually though fastboot and see what happens ("fastboot flash system <path-to-system_signed-image>", u may need mFastboot for that(is inside the rsd-lite package))
Just for the record if u didn't know:
Adb: works only in selected recovery's and normal boot(sometimes in charging mode as well)
Fastboot: works only in AP fastboot mode (power+vol-down, black screen with white/blue text (rsd-lite needs this mode))
XFSTK: works only in medfield flash modues, something u don't need to be with that kind of error
Thanks again!!!

I am able to enter RECOVERY MODE NOW (I installed CWM, before this I was only able to see the android lying on the floor ans saty dead right there, I was supposed to press Volume + and - and the camera button at the same time, but nothing happened), it seems to be easier to unbrick it this way, but now the problem is that after I follow the steps to reinstall the original ROM, it aborts installation. I read this may be caused due to a file on the zip file, I looked for it, but nor the Folder META-INF, whic is supposed to contain a "update-script" file, nor that file is anywhere in the ROM folder...
I've even tried cyanogenmod (after first trying Telcel original ROM and then the retail GB ROM) cuz it actually contains the folder previously mentioned and the file is in a different path, but it is there, I modified it, but got a "Can't open tmd/update.zip (bad) Installation aborted" error...I don't know what else to do T_T...
Note: I also used sideload and CWM to install it, but the same thing happens. Also checked some other post about this issue, but none has helped me...
What zip file are u installing?
If u want to go back to stock, just use a RSD lite package for 4.1.2 or install TWRP and restore a TWRP backup to go to 4.4.2. There is no official RSD lite package for 4.4.2 and the update.zip doesn't work if your system doesn't boot already.

It's done! Thanks!
I actually used another computer with windows 10, also I used RSD Lite and it worked just fine, now I have the stock ROM from Telcel and it it is working almost normal. The only abnormality I've seen is that my phone turns itself off when battery is at 20%, I searched info about that problem and it says I may re calibrate the battery, so it may work fine again, but now I need to root again to be able to do that T_T, hope it works this time...
THANKS! again!
It seems i can't flash with Phone Flash tool at the Moment.Till yesterday, it was working all fine.

"device can not reboot" or something... (Device is in dnx mode, i see that in display in small font).
What is here wrong?How i can solve it,please?
Thanks all in advance!!!
Hello guys, so, today i was trying to install miui 9 in my mi a2, then later going to update to miui 10. I was trying to install by flash mode (XiaoMiFlash) Everything was going fine, until my windows accidently turned off for updates (RIP). When my pc turned on, i was desperately opening miflash as fast that i could, but then when i try to install again it was saying "cannot recieve hello packet". I tried to restart it thinking that would fix it, but its just stuck in a MI logo with mi.com screen(Bootloop). I was trying to unplug usb cable and then putting again trying to fix it, clicking refresh to see if it appears, but it doesn't. Same with fastboot mode, doesn't get recognized. I really need help to fix it and sorry if i wrote something wrong, english is not my native language.
Same problem happened with me today. Any Solution?
Are you able to boot into fastboot?
Something similar happened to me once with the A2.
I somehow too managed to interrupt some update process and got stuck in the same scenario.
I could resolve it by getting one of these now superseded fastboot stock files with some installer scripts in them.
The scripts also wouldn't work, but I could install the firmware files one by one manually, following the script's content.
First off though, you could try to get into fastboot mode (as mentioned before), boot the official twrp img and flash the latest firmware zip file from here
Then you could go ahead and flash miui for the A2 like any other custom ROM (or did you just post in the wrong section and actually got an 6X? - seeing that you used miflash, it really seems like it..
Just in case here is the right thread for downloading miui for the A2: A2 miui port)

Hey, sorry for not awnsering for a long time. Yes, i can enter in fastboot, but the problem is that my MI A2 doesn't get recognized. (nothing happens if i try to flash it in fastboot mode).
i same that trouble, i can try to bootloader but when i connect usb to my pc it not recognized, i don't run anycommand from my PC,

Hi
I want to flash my Mi 9 Lite by MiFlash v2020.3.14.0 in fastboot mode(Fastboot Update).
My device is unlocked and unroot, I download the latest official tgz ROM and decompress it and run MiFlash and past the ROM address to the MiFlash tool, after refreshing my device is recognized , I click on flash button, but MiFlash tools show me "error:not catch checkpoint (\$fastboot -s.*lock).flash is not done"
Even by going to the configuration menu and removing the text "\$fastboot -s .* lock" from the checkpoint and OK it and then clicking on the flash, the program will quickly show the flash done and show flashing is success, but it is not actually flashed!!!
I have already installed Minimal ADB Fastboot v1.4.3 and device driver, developer options and usb debugging is on.
in CMD I run fastboot devices command and my device is recognized
I even installed TWRP recovery by adb commands
what's the solution?
Why MiFlash does not flash the official ROM and shows error?
How can I flash the official ROM(*.tgz file) in Fastboot?
thanks.

Probably you did something wrong trying to remove that text, you don't need to remove it if your bootloader is unlocked.
You can flash it directly using fastboot commands, or you can flash it through EDL mode too.

Thank you for your answer
My device bootloader is unlocked, I also saw and checked it. I did it both when it was text and when I deleted the text, but in fact nothing happened and my device did not flash and only remained in the same fastboot mode until I restarted it and it started normally.
I even tried the new version of Mi Flash Tool v20210226 and got the same result as before.
I downloaded 3 different versions for mi 9 lite from the official site, https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2, and as I explained, it was.
even I downloaded other regional Roms but the same result...
you said : You can flash it directly using fastboot commands, or you can flash it through EDL mode too.
How can I flash an official ROM with the *.tgz extension(in fastboot mode or other mode)?

Mm, Maybe you are trying to use the fastboot ROM through Mi Flash tool without firstly decompressing it?
You need to decompress first the tar.gz file, you will find inside all the image partitions, the scripts needed.
As you can see in the images in this thread, the files have to be accessible for the tool to can load them https://androidmtk.com/use-xiaomi-mi-flash-tool
This is the simplest way, using Mi Flash tool, you can use it in fastboot (if unlocked) or in EDL mode (no matter locked or not). Take care to not choose the option "relock" device if you don't want to do that.
For the fastboot commands you require to decompress the files and execute simply fastboot flashall -w this will format data and update your device. Sometimes this simple command doesn't work, then you can edit the flashall.bat file, line-by-line, to the scripts being executed.

No.
I decompress first the tar.gz file! I wrote all my actions in post 1 and post 3.
I followed the instructions written on the official Xiaomi page(https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2)
how can I flash the official ROM in fastboot mode or any other mode?
Please write a guide for me. my device is Mi 9 Lite.
thank you.

You can flash through EDL mode the same way as it is in the guide you followed, the main difference is that you have to put your device in EDL mode to perform the operation.
As your device is unlocked you can put it in EDL mode without the need to disassemble the back cover, either using fastboot oem edl or from a device off, pressing both volume buttons at the same time that you connect to the PC, firstly open Windows device manager and check that it is listed as Qualcomm 9008-USB, you need to install this https://www.getdroidtips.com/download-qualcomm-qdloader-hs-usb-driver/
Rom should be unzipped on desktop. Not inside a faulder.... If you unzipped it inside faulder error will come up

The folder can be placed in any side, even I always have my tool installed in the main drive (C) and the Miui ROM in another partition (D) you have to suppress all the spaces in the names and lastly browse where the images' directory is, not inside but where it is the images directory and the scripts.
What about EDL, did you achieve to get it? Upload some screenshot, from the browser files and from the error you are getting, I'm sure it's easy to fix it, maybe you are missing something.

I tried everything and the same error was shown!
I did not try the EDL method because I am not a professional user and I want to use safe, common and easy methods.

Don't use "Clean all & Lock" at least till you solve it.
EDL method is simple to use if you have your bootloader unlocked (this is one of the reasons why you don't have to lock it right now).
To use the EDL method you just have to power off completely, then while you connect the device to the PC press both volume buttons.
Before install the Qualcomm 9008 USB drivers.
