Hi All!
I wonder if it is possible to restore nvram setting without going to motorola or at&t?
I tried to do hw resent and presse volume up in wrong place (erase nvram I guess).
I don't have much hope but still.
Thanks!

Thanks for the link. Won't help me, unfortunately Volume Up + Power doesn't show anything on the screen
...and we are back
Just took the battery off, put it on. Switched on the device and voila - back to that stupid motoblur login (It was actually the reason - I tried to do hw reset to get rid of email/password since I entered random data there and now can't neither remember it nor reset the password)

If you're using a GT540 then look at this.
If you are using the P970 then look at this.

You're saying that the pattern lock is still there after a KDZ update? I though KDZ updates overwrite existing partitions including the data partition.

It doesn't overwrite data or cache, this is why you get stuck at the android screen if you used a 2.2/2.3 custom rom (due to incompatible data such as dalvik-cache and other settings), and flashed a 2.1 with fastboot KDZ, you need to factory reset before hand to resolve this.

I had an experience yesterday with this problem with Optimus Black...The problem with the posted solution here our phone does not have a Home button so this solution not fit with ours, however upon experimenting things I do discover that in replacement for home button we can use the button at the left side of phone (Gesture Button) here how it will go.
-Turn off your phone.
-Hold Volume down together with G button.
-press the power button while still holding the Volume down and G button until it powers on.
I noticed because when I bought it it was heavily modified & rooted running Gingerblur, already had clockwork installed so I went to flash a clean sbf with rsd and could not get it to enter rsd mode. Finally I realized it was because the volume button dosen't work. I have a feeling its not hardware related and more likely someone that didnt know what they were doing fooling with things.
Does anyone know a way I can fully restore it without using the volume rocker? When I called back the guy that sold it to me he claimed I have to install rom manager and load a image and that will fix it but he probably dosent know what hes talking about.
Does it have tenfars CWM installed already? If not, can you install it? With it , you can reboot directly into cwm recovery and do a factory reset / data wipe or flash something else through update.zip

Yes it has it installed already but without functioning volume up/down buttons I cannot select any files or options?
Doh forgot about that... how about Factory Data Reset through the regular settings menu? On mine it's in the Privacy Settings.

Yah I tried that a couple times. Rocker still dosent work. Took it to my local cell phone repair shop and they said its hardware related. Dosent make sense though since water damage indicator is white and phone appears to be in brand new physical condition like its never been dropeed or damaged. But it has been hacked as i see system recovery and its rooted with gingerblur.
The person that you bought the phone from could have pressed way to hard on the button and broke it without even knowing it.

+1 probably hardware related...
but if you want to try one more thing, might go the official motorola update software route here...

RSD restore it and call it in on warranty. Used phones still have warranty protection.

Thanks for the suggestion but it says there is no software update available when i connect it. Anyways I took it to att warranty center they said they will send out replacemnet and that software related stuff should not affect my warranty. A little worried though since it says gingerBLUR on boot up. Wish I could restore this somehow.

Ok I have root explorer. What exactly should I do?
If you still have the phone I remembered that you can enter rsd mode by enabling usb debugging then clicking start on rsdlite. It'll reboot into rsd protocol mode.
if it is the rocker that's gone, its only a module and theres only 6 screws to totally disassemble the phone. no void stickers either. my phone's rocker button was broke to when i bought mine used. i just disassembled and reassembled and it was magically fixed! theres nothing scary about taking it apart either
Did you find a solution?
I am in the same boat. I need to use this piece of c**p for a month before I switch to galaxy s3. Please assist.
When i power my, MT4G up it brings me to the Slash screen. How would i get my phone back to normal so that i can use it again. Please help. Thanking in advance.
So is your phone rooted? Have you checked your eMMC ?
So, how this problem occurred ? did you do anything unusual ?

Try doing a factory reset on the phone. Get into the bootloader by holding the volume down button and then holding down the power button simultaneously. Use the volume up/down button to highlight factory reset, then to select press the power button
I did it and 3 android dudes with skate boards are on the screen for like 3 hours no exactution
Which version of the stock rom are you using. Is it 2.2.1 or 2.3.4 ?
If you can't get the factory reset, I will give the stock rom . Do update using hboot.

or
can you tell us the hBoot version you have
it will be loacated at the top of that screen with listed some like .xx.yyyy
If this happen post the update i would exchange it under warranty as you might have a bad eMMC chip and something failed in the writing process.
I'm running HBOOT-0.86.0000, When it happened i was running stock because it hasnt been updated sence i had the phone. My factory reset wont proceed with the prgress bars t-moblie i should have.

he didn't update it to 2.3.4.
corrupt file system maybe, but doesn't seem likely. sounds more like an eMMC failure to me.
Is eMMc software or hardware?

eMMC is a chip that stores information, a chip that you can write to.
Well lets hope that's not the case. How cam I get a copies of the stock Rom and try to install it?

Given you are on the .85 or .86 hBoot.
Download THIS FILE . leave it zipped up, and store it on the root of your SDcard.
power down the phone, pull the battery if needed. Then power on the phone holding down the power button and the volume down rocker. Once it boot select "bootloader". It will scan the SdCard for the file then prompt you to update the file.
But when I start up the phone and enter the prompte screen it scans the SD card automatically is that suppose to happen?

yes. if SDcard is in the device bootloader will automatically scan for the PD151IMG.zip file.
I recently rooted my note3 and installed xpose framework and other tweaks. i later realised that my power button cant lock and put my device into my lock screen.
the power button still works for everything else and i have a software button to bring it to the lock screen which i made using the "greenify app".
whats causing this and is there any fix? or any ways to put the device into safe mode ans see if this is caused by some faulty tweak? bug?
Summary:
"Power button works for everything except putting the phone to lockscreen/screen blackout"
Basic solution is to go to security and check "power button instantly locks" something like that.

I removed all my modules and root permissions and used super user to remove my root.
Ive backed up all my data, removed my root access and im planning to do a factory reset. That should fix it right? Is it possible to soft brick my device this way?
Im fluent when it comes to jailbreaking but still a total noob with rooting.

Factory reset will delete all data photos, music, vids, contact and messages etc. If you've backed up everything then you are good to go for factory reset and will welcome you back to fresh out of the box phone. And no soft brick can occur by doing this.

My Nexus 4 won't boot. It gets stuck at the spinning colored circles. I picked up my phone in the morning and the charge was down to 4%, and as I was entering my pin to unlock it powered off. I have lollipop and received the update OTA a couple of weeks ago, and it has been fine. I did not manually install lollipop.
I tried clearing the cache, and it still won't boot. Any ideas of what else I could try? I really don't want to do a factory reset.
Thank you in advance.

Ya, that's what I was afraid of. I'm not sure if I finished entering my pin or not before it powered it self off.
unplug anything from the usb port , then give it another shot.
