Hello, so my atrix was perfect like 2 hours ago. I ad neutrinos rom gt+ on it for like 2 days days and everything was perfect. But ! well i was playing a bit with it and deleted some stuff in the android folder of my internal sd, it was only real racing 2 game files and some other stuff. I played some more with it and my screen started flashing strangely and doing weird stuff. I closed the screen, i opened back same thing. The phone shutted down itself. I tried rebooting and now im stuck at the red m logo with unlocked in the top left corner. i tried to access recovery by doing a battery pull and rebooting but i dont have access to the little menu. Anybody can help me fix this?
Silly question but are you holding down the volume down rocker button during boot? Do you get the prompt for fastboot, android recovery, etc ?
If it pops up scroll down using volume down to android recovery and hit the volume up to select it.
Should be able to fix it from there.
When i hold down volume down button there is absolutely no prompt pf any kind =\ i already installed some stuff with cwm and i had to go through there, but now i have nooothing =(

Did you update to the latest firmware? If so it might be wise to see about reflashing that same firmware again with RSD. It's a pain in the arse and you might have to do it a few times to get it to work right, but it is possible. I had the latest build CM7 on my atrix and I reflashed to stock just to see if I could.
I'm not kidding though when I say it's a painful process, the phone might get stuck in a boot loop (where it goes to the M Dual Core logo and just reboots). If that happens you're still okay cause you can just keep reflashing the stock .sbf file till it takes (just don't downgrade).
Your call though.
Meh today its completely dead, i checked it today and all ihave is green led =(
Edit: Plugged it in wall charge instead of computer, back to M logo =(
Unlocked bootloader so best not to use RSD. Can you get fastboot? Reboot and hold volume up instead of down.

Find a friend with an Atrix and use their phone to charge your battery, or try going into an AT&T store and asking if you can charge it there on a display phone.
Im in canada =/ but one of my friend got an atrix, ill charge the battery with his phone BUT back when my battery was still charged i still couldnt get to fastboot/recovery power+up and power+down didnt worked neither. Is it hard bricked?
Il also ordered stuff to make a motorola factory cable, think i will be able to do anything with this?
Still seeking help guys! I loved my atrix please help me to recover it :/

Well, if you can't get into either recovery, fastboot, or rsd mode you won't be able to fix it. Make sure you're pressing the volume down button as you boot the phone, and keep it held down until the options come up.

help i9000 after flash, doing loop of at&t logo, can not enter download mode,
when plugged in screen goes black.
!! if anyone can help please do not hesitate, mostly appreciated.
Try to hold the Down+Menu+Power combination while INSERTING the battery into the device.
i try that seem to have no response and when unplugged from usb it loop at&t logo
or plugged in usb screen goes black and no response seem from pressing buttons
I had a similar problem as most phones in Canada seem to have Download/Recovery mode disabled, and here is what worked for me.
Grab something like One Click Un Root (all models), and click one click un root (obviously phone has to be on and plugged into the computer).
This should automatically reboot you into Recovery Mode!
All you have to do is "wipe data/factory default" or something like that (should be the third option).
As it states, you will loose all your data, but at least you will have a functionning phone!
did it work?
Hi. I have similar problem. Can anybody give instruction what can I do?
I have this problem too. Please help somebody
Add me to the list. Bell Galaxy S, went to unlock my phone the screen went black. Now it will not boot into the OS, the galaxy S splash screen displays then nothing. The menu and back button light up, thats all. ****[email protected]@
I have not rooted or anything.
Of course my download mode does not work.. Going to try this one click root thing if I can find it.
NOT HAPPY
This is not working. Probably because the phone is not in USB debugging mode as I can't change it... Is there any other way to get the phone into recovery mode?
**** me
i had the same thing happen to me the other day with my bell galaxy s and my phone wont do the 3 button combo trick. i left my phone plugged in to a wall charger for a while until the back of the phone became a little warm. i pulled the battery and then left the power cord plugged in and put the battery back in. i held the volume down and enter button until the battery charging indicator showed up, then i also pressed and held the power button until the boot animation started (this is the blue moving swirl and music, not the galaxy s splash scree) and then i let go of the power button. it took a few attempts at this before it actually worked, but eventually it will go into download mode at which time you can open the odin app, then plug in the usb cable and flash your phone that way. it did seem to make a difference if the back of the phone (around the camera area) was warm. if i let go of the power button while the music was playing and the phone did not enter download mode i would keep all 3 buttons pressed until it shut down again, then i would only let go of the power button while the phone initiated the charging screen, then once the battery logo was displayed i would hold the 3 buttons again and would just keep doing this until it went into download mode. i have flashed it at least 5 times today and i have been able to do this each time.
i also had an issue where odin would not recognize my phone was plugged in and windows would show a message saying the usb device was not recognized. i left the phone plugged in and while in download mode i pressed the volume up, enter button and power button until the phone went blank and when the galaxy s logo showed up i let go of the power button and the phone would go into recovery mode and then the usb drivers would be installed. i would then do the 3 button combo for download mode and odin would work fine. it took several attempts but it does work. i hope this helps you guys
If I hold all three buttons the splash screen does not come on, it just keeps looping the Galaxy S logo until I let go of the power button....

That's what mine did too, several times in a row and then it worked. For some reason it only works after the battery is charging for a bit and the back becomes warm. then it works at will
No luck. I am probably screwed getting it exchanged now too as I am passed the 14 days from Best Buy.
the on click thing doesn't work, if your phone is already bricked.
also it is not the phone's fault for not working, the phone was working properly before you tried the hacks.
whenever you do these kind of things you know you are entering into the "not supported" "not covered by warranty" zone.
in the worse case scenario, if you can no enter download mode to recover your phone, it'll be to take the phone back to bell and claim warranty on it, and prentent you don't know what happened to it.

Its my fault??
I did not hack my phone. Its not rooted, I did nothing to it.
By "unlock" I meant exactly that, unlock as in swiping the screen to unlock it.
The more I search the net the more posts I find of Galaxy S phones randomly bricking...
on the original message sounded more like you went to Unlock the phone, as in SIM unlock the phone using any of the tools available out there, and there has been already several people which had the same problem.
if you go back to Bell for an exchange, you better not use the word "unlock" rather use Swipe
as the message on the phone "swipe the screen to unlock"
there are no known issue about this causing the phone to brick.
if that is what happened to you, you should have started a new topic for people to help you, instead of hijacking the topic from the OP, as your issue is different from OP, the OP actually screwed up because he/she flashed the wrong ROM to the i9000
... anyways, Does it work if you reboot the phone?
I have rebooted the phone about 100 times. The phone crashed when I unlocked it to check a text I received. (not hacked). Has not booted up properly since. I have found many others with the same issue who have also not hacked/rooted/unlocked/ their phones.
Waiting on Best Buy to call me back. I am so pissed right now, I have been bragging to my friends and co-workers how awesome this phone is, one has already picked one up, I hope his doesn't brick too. Not recommending it to anyone anymore..
did you load a lot of MP3 to the phone?
can you boot into Recovery Mode?
in the recovery mode you can wipe the Cache and wipe the data
that should make your phone work normal again
it'll be best to open a topic to help you trouble shoot your interesting issue, as it's the first i've hear that you get a black screen after Swiping out of the lock screen
I can't get into recovery mode. I have tried every button combination I have found. I had about 2 GB of music on the phone. I also installed the Android SDK to try ADB, but since the phone is not in USB debugging mode it does not see it.

on the other topics relating to the 3 button not working.
have you tried the heating up method?
or the plugging the battery in, when all 3 buttons are pressed? (of course for this one you will need help from a friend, unless you are very skilled at keeping the 3 button on hold meanwhile able to slide in the battery in with out a 3rd hand)
Got this phone from a friend. She already upgraded to iPhone so this is like a trash or free phone (I will take maximum risk to fix it). There was some moisture under the LCD glass. Put it in a bag of rice for 4 days while the new battery was on its way. That seemed to fix the moisture under the glass, so I'm assuming it fixed any other moisture.
I can get to bootloader (30.04) and the SBF using RSDLite (tried 5.3 and 5.5) appears to go through just fine. Have tried 602.sbf, VRZ_MB810_2.3.32_1FF_01.sbf, and VRZ_MB810_2.3.34_1FF_01.sbf.
Stuck on red M logo. Have tried different ways to get into recovery like holding down Home key or holding down camera key. Nothing I do can get it into recovery so I can wipe and get past this red M.
Should I try some other method I've heard of with Ubuntu and some SBF-flash application?
Hold power and home key until it goes to bootloader, do a wipe data/cache of factory restore.

I think you've got your terminology mixed up. Bootloader is the mode that comes up by pressing both volume keys while powering on. This is where you flash stuff through RSDLite or use adb server to push and do hacker stuff.
Recovery is the phase where you can do factory wipes and data formatting. I can't get into recovery.
When you flash an SBF, it should be flashing a new recovery. I think the phone is hosed.
If wiping data doesn't help, do an SBF

ADB isn't working. I don't think ADB works in bootloader.
You ask me what I have done so far, but I already put all that information in the OP. That is why I was so frustrated with that second guy. If you guys would take time and not skim over my post that I actually thought out and typed ****, you wouldn't have to waste your time asking me what I have done.
I appreciate the ADB suggestion.
Just trying to collect some information. I'm someone that doesn't let a phone just be deemed as bricked. How charged is the battery?
-Edit: Just checked, ADB doesn't work in bootloader. Confirmed by having RSD open and making sure it sees it, and then tried adb devices. Also as a supporting confirmation for the fun of it, ran the one click root.
-Edit: Further thinking about it, was this phone submerged in water or just had moisture in there? There could just be some minerals formed up on the board that a toothbrush would get rid of. I've fixed phones a dozen times. Some phones will turn on and get stuck. Some wont turn on. Some the backlight comes on but no video signal.
Deoxit
My guess is that the buttons aren't working. There's no way to test that since you can only get to the bootloader, but if you can successfully SBF the phone the odds of any of the solid state gear being bad are pretty low. It does seem odd though that you can't make it to the boot animation and get stuck at the boot logo.
I would suggest getting some deoxit (tv tuner cleaner) and spraying it in around the hardkeys on the bottom of the phone. You don't need too much (especially since it might end up behind the screen). Spray that in there and then work the buttons a few dozen times. That should loosen up any corrosion on the switches and let them close the circuit again. If that doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas, but at least you'll have some deoxit lying around (stuff is great for static-y radio/stereo volume control knobs, etc).
The battery is pretty well charged. When I got it in the mail, there was no charge. I cut a USB cable and hooked it up to power. After about 2 minutes, I tried it. It got to bootloader but said battery was too low. I used the cut USB cable and hooked it around the battery pins in the phone and put the battery in, so it charged it at the same time it was tricking the phone into thinking the battery was full.
Also, if you go into Bootloader and then power off the phone, the green LED comes on. I'm assuming that means it's charging? I was skeptical since all we hear is that you're ****ed if your battery runs out at this stage of the game. It was off this morning and had been plugged in with the green LED all night (no USB cable hack).
As for trying adb while RSDLite is open, no go. adb devices shows blank. Motorola OneClick root didn't work either. It just sat there waiting for my phone. I didn't have the balls to plug in my Bionic to see if Motorola OneClick would work (and therefore the problem is with the Droid X).
As for the water damage, who knows. The lady I got it from was surprised when I told her there was moisture under the screen. I'm not her mommy so she didn't have any reason to withhold information from me. I just thought a bag of rice, a $12 battery off Newegg (free shipping, too), might just get me a sellable Droid X out of the deal.
As for the hardware buttons - they feel like they're clicking, but I know that obviously isn't the 100% test whether they're functioning properly or not. The volume buttons and power button obviously do function, since I can use those to get into BL.
Another brain jog idea: Is there an SBF out there that wipes the data and cache, along with all the other **** it puts on? This probably won't work because I still should be able to get into Recovery - something is FUBAR.
Please give up if you feel like giving up. Bricks exist. This may very well be one of them.
P.S. The girl that gave me this dropped her new iPhone 3 days into ownership. It only cracked the back glass, but the point still remains: she may not be the most graceful phone owner on the planet. Who knows what this DX has been through.
Thanks for all your help, guys.
I would try cracking that thing open and seeing if there are any mineral deposits and cleaning them. This means those weird clips and stuff too, just take a toothbrush to the whole thing and see where that gets you.
As with giving up, I'm a pretty bored guy and finding something to do is better then sitting around and watching Star Trek.
I haven't lost a phone once
Edit: Except for this [email protected]*% of an ACN voip phone that I buffer overflowed in attempt to gain root.. That ended badly.
Same problem
I had the same problem with my dx trying to sbf to .602 I ended up flashing the stock stock froyo sbf and upgrading to gingerbread by rooting and flashing CM7 or any other gingerbread rom. You didn't specify whether or not you tried froyo sbf. No idea if this will work for you but its worth a shot if you haven't already tried it. I also had to use RSD lite 4.9 or 4.8 to get the sbf file to work right.
I'd like to toss my problem into this thread if it's alright. The OP is the closest description to my situation I've read. A co-worker brought his phone to me and it would only get to the round red logo and stop there. No bootloop just a freeze at the red logo.
I tried different ways to get to recovery but was only able to get it to the white bootloader screen. (30.04) So I flashed .340 using RSD and it completes and tells me to manually start the phone. But the phone is already at a white logo (not a red one). I do a battery pull to restart the phone and I still can't get the phone to a recovery by holding down home or any other key while powering on. Battery charge is near full.
The owners explanation of how the phone got this way is that he woke up one morning and there was a 'protection mode' transparency on the screen so he rebooted and had the red logo from then on.
So, I can RSD flash just fine but the phone won't get past the black screen with the white and black M logo.
I would try flashing other files or even the Linux CD option but I can't find anything downloadable since mega got shut down.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Flash the latest rom (Gingerbread, .605) and the red logo will appear. Then, assuming it gets to the droid x loading eye, battery pull and enter recovery.
You can enter recovery by holding power and home, then, once the red/white M shows up, release the power button. Once the triangle appears, press the vol. up and down buttons simultaneously. If that doesn't work, press a bunch of random buttons until the recovery screen comes up. I'm not kidding, it works.
From this menu, scroll with the volume keys, and select with the power button. Wipe data/factory reset, then wipe cache partition. Reboot, and you should be good to go.

1. Would be happy to try .602. Do you know of a working link?
2. It never gets to the eye.
Edit... I found a 602 iso to make a CD boot disk from and used that. The install went perfect but the phone still just boots to a red M logo and freezes there. It doesn't get to the red eye and no button press combo can get it to the recovery screen. I can only get it to the bootloader or let it go to the red logo. The buttons don't feel sticky or anything and the batt is fully charged.

Just fyi, if you bootloop after an sbf, you can pull the battery, boot into stock recovery with the usual key combo format data and you'll be all set: no more bootlooping (or double sbfing!)
Hello, first off I will say I am a total novice when it comes to messing with my phone as my upgrade is in a month so I took the plunge and all was well at first. I used SuperOneClick to root my Flipside which runs Froyo 2.2.2. I deleted the bloatware as that was my main goal. This all took place about 2 weeks ago, and no problems existed.
Yesterday when I was reading a simple text message my flipside automatically reset itself and became lodged at the Motorola M logo. I've had this issue in the past before rooting so I just removed the battery in hopes all would work well as before, sadly that wasn't the case. My phone then booted up and only the backlight appeared on the screen causing it to become stuck in the infinite bootloop. I've tried all the different hard resets with the x button and power button, the volume down button, etc. None of them work as only the backlight comes up on my screen so I can't see anything. Is there any way to unroot it or flash it back to stock?
If any of my terminology seems out of place then sorry, I honestly have not a slightest idea what to do nor what is occurring other than the bootloop.
Any help is appreciated and can you please dumb down the answer for me if possible. Thanks!

I've had a similar problem as you with my flipside. Are you sure you're using the right key combination to get into rsd mode? If you can at the very least get it into bootloader mode by holding down the volume + key while holding the power button, I'm sure you can get it into rsd mode.

Theres a post here somewhere that has the combo of keys needed to get into bootloader mode. Sorry dont have it saved. Just do a search for it
Okay well I believe I found the thread you were talking about. It mentioned holding the up arrow on the keyboard combined with the power button for 4 seconds. Still nothing. I've tried the x button and power button, the volume up and power button. The thing is my screen won't work period. Nothing shows up but the backlight. So maybe I can or did get it to rsd or bootloader mode, but I can't really tell. I feel like something isn't right here. So I still can't connect it to my pc to use rsd lite.

Did you by any chance have the stock launcher app frozen and using a different launcher? Just seems if you are seeing the backlight that possibly it is on the home screen but the launcher is corrupt? Not sure.
I'm not entirely sure. I assume it's stuck in the bootloop because when I power it on the backlight changes shades and then vibrates to signal the screen past the motorola M. Then I can touch the screen and feel a vibration to simulate to slide to unlock and if my usb cable is attached my computer makes the noise to signal it sees my device, but moments later my computer dings to signal device disconnected and my phone goes through the above process again.
I feel as if I can get to the factory reset screen and such because if I time it right I can stop it from doing anything mentioned above and it just hangs as if in a menu of some sort. The downfall is I see nothing and the backlight only appears.
I may just have to scrap it and say well done phone. I can't seem to find a similar issue anywhere on the internet. All the other issues can make the bootloader screen appear and that appears to be my number on problem.
I guess I was just being a complete idiot and thought I had removed my SD card when I didn't. Well now it can connect to my pc so I can flash it. I hope all goes well. I flash it then it should be back to factory settings right?

Yes like straight out the box. The backlight issue just seems to me like a launcher problem but that wouldn't explain why you can't get into bootloader mode. Hmmm strange. Here is another way I just thought of. If it connects to the computer (you said you hear the beep) reflash it via Motorola's site. All the instructions should be there (if they still support it)
Well I was able to flash it using RSD Lite. I could hear the start up tone and such (progress), but unfortunately my screen still won't show anything. I'm assuming the worst and maybe say hardware failure as to why the screen won't boot up? It randomly disappeared when it first went into bootloop and has never come back so that is why I assumed no working screen was a software issue.

Yup that sounds like hardware failure. Haven't ever heard of the screen going out on the flipside but the atrix forums are full of them. Maybe you can get your upgrade early. Good luck
Hi My boss has a droid x and it stopped booting. He already got his replacement but he did not back his info up to google so he lost everything. The phone is completely stock. He said that first it gave him the black screen with the yellow triangle and the android then it would not boot. I know the software is partially working because when I plugged it in to the charger the battery animation comes up. When I plugged it into the pc I tried different button combos because I do not know how to get into recovery mode. So I think when I hit vol up and power I got a screen that said bootloader and power low and cannot configure software or something like that. Oh the screen was black and the letters were white. I am not familiar with this phone or motorolla in general I have and lg and a Samsung and both have unlocked bootloaders. So is there a way to get his info off this phone? The only thing I can think of is to some how install CWM and then mount the internal sdcard but I don't know how to do that with a locked bootloader. So if anyone knows anything please let me know.
Thank you,
Charlie
The black screen with the yellow triangle just means your in recovery mode. If it still goes to that when you turn it on just press both volume buttons and it will give you options. There's an option to reboot and you can factory reset. But I don't know if you can get the data.
Also to get into recovery just press home and power and when you see the m for Motorola release power and keep home held.

Hello i have recently tried to return my phone from cyanogenmod into the stock rom using this thread: "https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/general/guide-return-to-stock-relock-bootloader-t3489110" and my phone got stuck in the process while making the command "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img". And now my device is stuck on boot loop showing the cyanogenmod loading screen.
Anyway now i found a way to get to stock but for that i need to get my device into fastboot. THE PROBLEM IS that my device can't get now into fastboot! i have tried using adb commands but the adb doesn't recognize the device. I have tried fastboot commands but again it doesn't recognize the device. I also tried button combinations, but it didn't work.
Until the incidence i have used to press the power button+ vol down keys to get into fastboot mode, but now it doesn't work. I suspect that it doesn't work since in order to get into fastboot with the button combination i need to first get the device turned off. But when i connect my device to the charger it shows the battery charging screen and the device is stuck on that screen even if it has disconnected from the charger, and it will keep on that screen until the battery has depleted. I have tried shutting it down using the power button but then my phone gets into a loop with the cyanogenmod loading screen, and even if i turn it off it restarts instead.
p.s I have used to think that my fastboot was deleted but on an other thread i have been told that as long as i see the cyanogenmod loading screen of the OS that means i have a boot-loader.
Please help!
I want to get into Fastboot on my Moto Pure.
Thanks a lot
Eden.
Power down 1st
Try volume down & power key together. That will get you into fastboot directly.
Oops just seen that, my bad, I wont respond anymore.

I think @edenah is saying it just gets stuck at the loading screen. If the battery discharges all the way and the device is plugged in, the battery symbol shows and after the charger is unplugged, the battery charging doesn't go away until the battery dies again or the power button is pressed (which leaves us right back to where we started)

Try this:
Hold power button for 10-20 sek, when screen will turn off hold only vol-(at bootloop screen).
You should flash stock without "oem" commands.
Find how to update bootloader.

tried this, but the device still goes into the cyanogenmod loading screen.
its soft brick but can't be fixed (just thinking any method but no idea man)
get your phone to moto service centre and they can only fix it (or maybe not) caus this is worst case happening to you
if any pro dev read this thread he might be able to answer but badluck (nobody gives a ....)
btw when you connect your phone to pc does it shows unknown device or it just charge the phone?

:/
It recognizes it as portable usb device.
And well. I have bought the device in the us but i live outside of the US. so its bit problematic to return it now. Some help could do the trick!
I found SP flash tool and i believe it would do the trick. But i need to get the scatter loading file of the moto pure, but i can't find it anywhere, maybe anyone got the idea how to get that?

We haven't been able to get the QLoad files for most Moto devices, at least not for the last 2-3 years... Sorry.
Well i have found a way to get the device charged while the screen is off!
If i connect it to my computer while pressing the power button and the vol down button and keep pressing it, the device stays turned off!
Now i'm trying to play with it, to turn the bootloader. so far the classical power and vol combo doesn't work.

I am stuck. No button combination works. I suspect that the device isn't really off but the display is just closed. As even to open up the device takes a reallly long press on the power button.
if it got interrupted while flashing bootloader, you're pretty much not going to be able to do anything.
motorola service center is likely the only place that can fix it.
sorry for your luck.

Lost cause? No, probably not... Do you know anyone in the US you trust well enough to receive the phone from repair and ship it to you where ever you are? I believe that is all you need. The US service center cannot ship outside of North America (maybe US), but they can receive packages from anywhere. If you had a US contact that could receive the device and forward it on to you it might be worth it to get it fixed if it is still under warranty, if it isn't, then it might not be worth fixing. Lots of things to consider here.
