[Q] Electrify M 'safeboot' - Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

TITLE IS SUPPOSED TO READ "[Q] Electrify M 'fastboot' " NOT SAFEBOOT, OOPS
I've tried to go into fastboot mode multiple times to no avail, both from a powered on state and a powered off state.
So what actually happens when you go into fastboot mode?
All I've managed to get is a thing white line screen flash and then the phone booting as normal.
Trying to root this damn phone and in order to do that I have to apparantly unlock the bootloader?
Following THIS GUIDE (whoops cant post the link - 'motorola-global-portal.custhelp.XOM/app/standalone/bootloader/unlock-your-device-b') I just cant get the phone to do anything.
I'm able to sync/see the device with fastboot and ADB from the SDK but other than that I can not get it to work.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Also when trying THIS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1940630) root method it asks to perform a similar key press and upon doing that the phone just reboots.
When following the Motorola guide all I get is this, it just sits there.

I feel like an idiot now...
This should be in a guide somewhere.
In order to load into fastboot on a Motorola Electrify M you need to
Turn off your phone
Hold BOTH volume buttons down AND the power button
Use the Vol Dwn button to select fastboot
Use Vol Up to select and launch fastboot

Use this to root Electrify M:
(after trying for hours with other tools this one instantaneously worked)

ODD, I guess the Motorla website is wrong then.
I figured the Razr M was just two buttons and for some reason they changed the Electrify.

Stuck at hboot fastboot

I'm not sure what happened to my friends phone but apparently it just resetted out of no where and is stuck in fastboot i think i forget which one... The one with less option.
the keys don't work.i can't click on any options with power nor move with arrow keys.
I thought I'll just load up the pd15img and it'll be good. But nope screen is stuck at fastboot without any changes.
It is s-off but 86 bootloader idk why it's not 85 but whatever.
I think it might be bricked. I'm going to see if adb detects it later tonight. If it can are there any ways to fix it?

hm well, sounds like the volume buttons are broken, that's why it always reboots into the bootloader, the phone thinks that the volume down button is pressed in. what if you connected it to computer and type?
Code:
fastboot reboot

Oh wow, noticed that my reply didn't go through.
anyways quick update. Fixed it. it wasn't the volume button. volume button would lead to hboot i think. this went straight to fastboot. I imagine it has something to do with his back button (was working, stopped working when this happened, i fixed it somehow idk)
but anyways for future reference if you get stuck at fastboot and you can't move it
Click HOME, this enables your keys
go to recovery and flash a rom.
oh i wanted to add, for some reason, his phone was like wiped clean. no os or rom. so i had to flash him a new one.

glad you fixed it
and thanks for the tip
thanks, but the home button do not enable the buttons for me
This can be caused by a stuck VolumeDown button, and in this case the Home button won't help.
Hi,
I got the same problem with my HTC Desire Z, when I turn it on, it run on fastboot and no keys respond so I'm unable to boot the phone.
If I turn it on with Vol down button hold, the phone boot on the Hboot screen and the keys don't work on this screen too...
Unfortunately, this happen yesterday night... and since this yesterday morning, the home button of my device broke down... It sounds like I'm f**ked...
Is there a way to pass througt fastboot by using the adb ? (I'm not sure my device will be recognized byt adb on fastboot mode...)
Thanks

I've used the search function by looking for no keys responding on fastboot screen and that bring me here, in this case, nevermind the device, problem is the same.
It should be a stuck button, but I can access to fastboot or hboot depending on pressing the Vol Down button or not. Maybe the problem come from the not working center button of the Desire Z, I'll try it.

You might have to crack the phone open and manually umstick the keys at the circuit board.

Stuck at bootloader

I was running the Vortex ROM for several months now. This morning, my volume rocker wouldn't stop increasing the ringer volume. I couldn't do anything, so I pulled out the battery.
The phone would then boot till the Android exclamation sign and wouldn't go any further. I pulled out the battery several times while at that screen and now it refuses to even go beyond the bootloader. I have drained my battery completely
Please, help
I've got a battery charger that works with any battery. Hopefully, battery won't be an issue now
Android exclamation sign

As mentioned in the OP, I don't see the android recovery now. All I see is the "Google" logo. This replaced the Motorola logo since I had flashed the Vortex ROM.
Powering on the phone with both volume keys pressed takes me to a screen that reads "Bootloader 30.04. Baterry OK. Ok to program. Connect USB data cable."

[Q] Cant Get into AP Fast Boot!

I accidentally,... . unknowingly wiped the RED "system" button in Safestrap 3.12 on my Droid RAZR M today. (I was suppose to be wiping the cash and dalvik, but missed) I'm a retard I know. :crying:
Now I cant get into AP Fastboot to restore the phone from this hard brick!
When I press the power button along with the volume buttons, the only thing that happens is the red Motorola 'M" appears for a few seconds then the safe strap screen appears with the little sad robot, but that's it no AP Fastboot. Pressing the on screen buttons to enter Safestrap Recover do not respond. Oh boy I'm afraid I really did it this time. Its on the charger but i don't know if its even charging with out as OS?
Battery power was at 60% before i bricked it (i think). RSD Lite or my PC for that matter don't even see the phone when its plugged in.
Can this be saved? Or do I need to take a trip down to the Verizon Wireless store?
Droid RAZR M
4.1.2 OTA
Rooted
Locked Bootloader
Safestrap 3.12
Partitioned 64GB SD card utilizing Linked2SD
You need a different key combo to get into fastboot. You're not permabricked tho - that's just a really bad softbrick

Really? Well I hope your right. It gives me some hope. lol So do you have any idea of what alternative key combo i might have to use? Thank you for the reply.
Try holding power & volume down until the screen flickers then hold power and both volume buttons. You gotta be quick
If your boot loader is locked you won't be able to fast boot back until the new fast boot files come out though if your on 4.1.2

New to this, i accidentally the whole phone, same problem im in AP fastboot but registers as Device Locked
run through it on windows OS but says 'Fastboot" is not recognized as an internal or external command" and doesnt reboot as said
this process took 1min
Halp
This thread saved my life, then killed me. The suggestion about the different keys was spot on, i got into fast boot mode, then ran that utility. It totally failed me, I must have killed my phone pretty dead, and now there are no more key combos (the suggested one worked at first but now its just making the screen go blank) to try to get back into fast boot to try again. any more suggestions? on the up side verizon just pushed that update so i figure i can blame that to attempt an exchange
Did you take the update before using that utility? If you did, which version did you use? If you were already updated, then you needed to run 1.20. If you ran the wrong utility, that will cause issues. Now, since you can't boot, it sounds like your battery is dead. When you get to the blank screen, plug it in and leave it to charge for a while.
I'm no expert by any means but I'll try to help as best i can. If not me I'm confident someone else will. Now, I apologize because I didn't understand your original post.
Could you elaborate a little more please?
1. What were you trying to do with your phone prior to things going wrong, if they went wrong at all.
2. you mentioned AP Fastboot. So IM going to assume that at least you can access it. (not the same problem that I was having) that's a good thing! lol
3. Are you utilizing a utility like the one by Matt? Or are you doing something else? Like flashing firmware etc.
4. What were you in Fastboot for? What were your intentions?
I hope this doesn't come over a condescending. Just trying to get a Clearer understand of your issue so we can help.

I changed 2 lines in my build.prop file so i could see if I could get touchless control.
After I changed it, I restarted my phone. Now it is stuck in the Red M Boot, and it stays there, dosent black screen, dosent boot. I can get to the boot selection menu, but i cant choose anything, they all end up at the Red M. I Read that I can fix it in AP Fastboot, but I can get there. Also if i force it off (with power button and volume button) It just goes back to the Red M.
Everything I do ends up at the Red M
Help fast please, its my only phone, and I just got rid of my house phone

Holding the combination of buttons will only cause it to reboot, every time. Holding the power button down will make it shutdown. With that being said, what was your battery like before you started all of this? If it's below 50%, you're going to have a hard time. Shut the phone down and charge the battery ovenight, prior to attempting to fastboot.
If your battery is good, then you can fastboot. Hold all three buttons down, until you get the phone to power off. As soon as power goes off, you'll see a quick line flash at the top of the screen. As soon as you see this flash, quickly let go of the power button and then re-press it. If you got it right, you'll go into the fastboot menu. If you got it wrong, it will attempt to reboot. If it reboots, just try the button combo again. Once you get into the fastboot menu, use the vol- key to get to the option you need, and then hit the vol+ to choose that option.

Motochopper exploit has been out and about for a while, although your mileage may vary. KhoC, it's generally better practice to go through fastboot first. Reboot by holding power and both volume buttons (up and down). You should get to a black screen with an android in the center, and a tab at the top that will say things like Reboot bootloader, Recovery, Power Off, and other such things. Scroll with the volume buttons, select with power.

Care to tell us what combinations you've tried? Saying that none of them work is generally unhelpful, since it's possible you're just forgetting one/slightly malforming the correct sequence.

Yea sorry. I've tried power + volume up, power + volume down & power + both volume up/down at both powering it it on and while the device is actually on. while the device is on, if I press power + volume up, all it does is dim/brighten the screen. power + volume down does nothing. When I'm pressing the buttons, I'm holding them down, which will eventually reboot the device. I get the Google logo and the unlocked padlock, then the android laying down with no command below it.
Edit: I started my own thread this morning about it titled "Need help recovering my Nexus 7" a few posts down so not to hijack this one that has a little more info as well.

Okay, Remove your battery and reinsert it.
Dont press the power button yet.
Now connect your device to a PC with HTC USB drivers installed and enter the following commands.
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
If you are able to get into bootloader, let me know.

There!!!!
That's your problem.
When the phone is off and and u press volume up and power, it boots the device in safe mode.
Safe mode disables 3rd party apps at boot up.
Now this only works with stock ROMs and some custom sense ROMs.
If your ROM doesn't support this feature, it would boot into this black screen and begin to flash the red led.
So when the up key gets stuck or malfunctioned it causes the device to boot into that mode at start up.
But what I can rap my head around is why it won't boot into bootloader when you use adb.
