Please some one help.... I already deleted boot,cache,recovery,system, user data... Now My device not stating... it just open till bootloader

Usually you would boot into the new bootloader after having flashed a new one in place, and then continue (your steps #1 and #2 are reversed).
But, I'm not sure that is the cause of the problem here, and I wouldn't keep flashing the bootloader over and over when no errors are given, as a bootloader flash is the single most dangerous thing you can do. Just make sure you restart the tab.
Whenever you see a communications failure you should try a different cable or a different USB port on your PC. Communication failures are most likely with the system image simply because it is the largest - there are more opportunity for errors. FWIW, poor quality or damaged cables are the most likely cause of USB data transfer problems.
It could be some other problem with the tab, but those are two easy things to try.
good luck

Try using the flash-all.bat in the factory image.
Actually the only difference is in the wait of 10 seconds between reboot and -w update.
Give it i try.:fingers-crossed:
bye

Problem Solved... Problem with my usb Port....

so all that's necessary to type "mfastboot oem lock", or is the flash back to stock for safety reasons....listing steps isn't that helpful if the reasons aren't posted.
and have you tested "mfastboot oem unlock" or does the exploit need to be ran again to unlock the bootloader?
....shouldn't post about locking the bootloader without saying if it can be unlocked again or not.
EDIT:
And label or mention that this is for Windows Only
Check the flash script with notepad and I hope you will understand.
Please feel free to edit
Thanks

Other than oem lock begin, it doesn't look that different than any other automated flashing setup. Basically, are those signed partitions necessary to lock the bootloader on this phone (Nexus 4 can fastboot oem lock while running CM), or would a fastbooted factory reset good enough to lock the phone running a custom rom? And can the phone be unlocked, exploit, fastboot, or other, after doing this -- I think that's the most important question.
Not trying to nitpick or whatever, but some of my questions are important to know before doing something like intentionally locking the bootloader w/o knowing if it can unlock again or not (I assume it can, but still, it would be nice to have that confirmed before doing this...not that I am, I don't even have a 925...but I do get asked a lot of questions about every single 8960 phone...it's what happens when you're a helpful RC)

Yes you're right!
the only difference is the oem lock begin and oem lock.
You need those signed partitions
By the way you can unlock the bootloader again from motorola website.
Thanks for correcting me.

So basically this method should only be done by phones that can officially be unlocked by Motorola? Personally, I don't want to be the one that finds out a hack unlocked phone can't go from status 2 to status 3...but that's what random idiots who flash anything they see are for...(un)fortunately for us, there's a lot of them...
Seeing as how a ton of us are running hacked unlocked phones, including myself, and how not everyone here actually has a RAZR HD, including myself...anything discussing bootloaders and locking them needs to be well documented, if only to cover your ass when some dipcrap does this and screws their self. Though it does say XT925 in the thread title and don't do this on a 926 in the thread...
To clear all doubts I took the liberty to unlock my bootloader after relocking it
Code:

Yes, I read in another forum about an user has "discovered this re-lock method", and asked in Motorola's forum about the status code and the meanings and the answer was something like this
Status code 0 =locked with warranty
Status code 3 = unlocked without warranty
Status code 2= relocked but also without warranty
And I don't remember very well if status code 1 is for developers edition phones and it means relocked but with warranty..

Thanks!
Thanks, man!
The outcome of the procedure was perfect! Thanks a lot!
I have only one question: After travarmos the device, we can update via OTA?
Hugs!
No issue on OTA with Locked or unlocked bootloader.
If rooted there's issue

Yup, as @kumeipark stated, no issue with taking OTA just because you are unlocked.
Just remember, rooting is a software change on your phone, so that will mess up taking OTAs as you've modified the /system directory.
In the case of unlocking the bootloader, that is a physical change in the phone firmware itself. It does not modify the OS software in any way, hence the OTA will take since you didn't modify the OS in any way.
The reason the OTA's check for modification is to prevent bricking a device that may have modified the OS software in some way which could result in a device that boot loops. This way, they know for a fact that the software is either completely stock or it's been modified which means that the OTA cannot patch the software correctly, especially if some system files have been modified or removed altogether (or bloat apps as well).
Thanks!
Thank's guy's!
nice

I read your post months ago before having my phone updated, and I read it now after having updated On The Air.
What do you mean with "will mess up taking OTA" exactly?
It goes without saying you can't get OTA updates if you're running on modified version of OS; but if you have an unlocked bootloader as mine and you are on an official motorola build, you can still get OTA and update them without problems.
Here's the story:
- bought my xt925 last year and it mounted the build 4.1.2 the one with the camera shutter always (and forced) on, by the grace of American lawmakers (I am in Italy);
- since the 4.1.2 is slow as hell, I unlocked the bootloader early in january this year and put on the cyanogen something;
- I tried the cyanogen mod for two months then I flashed back this one: Android 4.1.2

- on october 7th I got the OTA message to uptade to kitkat 4.4.2, then I updated the phone and now I am working on 4.4.2.
There are a couple of things I don't get: how do I relock bootloader without flashing 4.1.2 and what happens if I do a factory reset from recovery.

I read your post months ago before having my phone updated, and I read it now after having updated On The Air.
What do you mean with "will mess up taking OTA" exactly?
It goes without saying you can't get OTA updates if you're running on modified version of OS; but if you have an unlocked bootloader as mine and you are on an official motorola build, you can still get OTA and update them without problems.
Here's the story:
- bought my xt925 last year and it mounted the build 4.1.2 the one with the camera shutter always (and forced) on, by the grace of American lawmakers (I am in Italy);
- since the 4.1.2 is slow as hell, I unlocked the bootloader early in january this year and put on the cyanogen something;
- I tried the cyanogen mod for two months then I flashed back this one: Android 4.1.2

Uh, reflashing doesn't lock the boot loader. Also, I never said you can't take an OTA with an unlocked bootloader. I said you won't be able to take an OTA if you are rooted, since that messes with the system files.
As you know, you unlock the XT925 via the Moto tools. As for relocking it, I have no idea. I do know with the Nexus 7, flashing a new image doesn't relock it. I have to actually do it via the ADB command, so I believe it's the same thing with the XT925. You get an unlock code from Motorola and you use that to unlock the bootloader and have to use the command to relock it.
Doing a factory reset won't relock it.
Looks like mfastboot check patitions checksum/size with GPT partition (patition_signed)

Have you tried just flashing the system.img on its own? Is it just me, or does that system image seem excessively large for a stock image? I would try a new cable, and maybe try redownloading the system img just in case.

Yea it is quite large, I have tried flashing the system.img on its own, It also eventually times out. I have also tried different system.img files. I have tried different USB cables, different USB ports, heck last night I even tried a different computer and OS! Still always fails.
At this point the only thing I was able to do with my phone was get Ubuntu Touch on it so it is just slightly more useful than a paperweight.
With Ubuntu Touch I have managed to get Cyanogenmod.zip onto the phone reflash the recovery and install the .zip I am now back on android, I cannot however get back to a stock image.

Hardware problem?

Hi there
I've got an old Nexus 10 that recently got stuck in a bootloop, so I booted into recovery and did a factory reset. After a few boots and updates everything seemed ok, but then it just died and went into a bootloop again.
I've flashed TWRP recovery, but no partitions are mounted or mountable and attempts to repair file system make the screen go squiggly (corrupted/interference) and then the tablet reboots into bootloader.
Is this likely to be a hardware issue or is there more I can try?

P.S. also tried flashing the stock ROM using flash-all.sh, output appended:
