Fasboot Flash fail (0x0003)

i had an issue updating from one CNA nightly to a newer one the other day, and was left with no option but to flash the original .sbf for my version of the phone & carrier etc. That worked fine, and i have a bootable stock phone, but when trying to install any rom, either through CWM recovery or fastboot, i get issues.
if i try through CWM the correct method, i get stuck on the Moto Dual Core screen forever, until i battery pull and have to sbf flash through RSD Lite again.
If i try through Fastboot, i get error Failed to process command flash: xxxxxxxxxx error (0x0003)
can anyone help please? i've been using various CM7/9 ROMS for months now, and cant deal with being stuck back on MotoBlur stock junk
many thanks in advance!

Reflash the gingerbread pudding .sbf, you're bootloader isn't unlocked anymore.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
the sbf i flashed was from the pudding page, and i unlocked the bootloader again fine, have the unlock sign on the Moto boot logo, just cant get any further than that with ROMs anymore..
EDIT: i am also getting the issue when flashing any kernels,
I can flash a recovery through fastboot, which it says is successful, but when i try to boot into recovery i get failed to boot 2, entering RSD mode.

Have you installed the latest drivers?

If you still cant get it to flash, then try on a Win Xp PC if you have dual boot or at friend's place.

Download Motorola Device Manager for Windows 7.

If you want to flash cm7.2, you have to make sure to wipe data + cache + dalvik before flashing, and make
sure that you run a froyo kernel, not GB.
Have you tried using stock bootloader ? from there you must just do a factory wipe / reset and it should be all good check here , maybe it will help you ! :good:

use a motorola defy+ firmware and now I can not go down to froyo 2.2 any idea to go back?
If you used too high version of original SBF, it may be impossible to downgrade. Compare your SBF version with list from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11588065&postcount=1 .

my device is a motorola defy and put a firmware defy motorlola not exactly what I had my defy time as it makes you install cyanogenmod 7. I've tried many original SBF and are stock and some just turns the screen on the logo then automatically enters bootloader mode but not always start stays in bootloader mode.
this was the last to use:
DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed.sbf
which I use to work then again my motorola defy?
this puts me in the bootloader:
Bootloader
09.10
Err:A5,69,35,00,27
Batery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
thanks in advance for the help.
Does flashing dfp 231 give bl error or blank screen?
If so then your defy is unfixable

as I do the wipe?
I had exact same error as you today, and had to reflash DFP-231 more than one time, but in the end it worked.
i followed instructions from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542956
so, using RSD Lite version 6.1.5 i flashed DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231 (when it tries to reboot i get the same error as you, but i continue process and go ahead and flash the second ROOTED sbf)
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt..._USAJRDNGIBRRTCEE_P022_A022_Service1FF.sbf.gz
then i flashed same version firmware as above but ROOTED from this link ..
http://www.mediafire.com/?76z12j1at3etf4j
if stuck in bootloop Motorola-logo after flashing ROOTED SBF, just follow "stuck in bootloop advice" in first post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618718
so basically i did ..
1. flash SBF with RSD Lite
2. got strange error message: "Bootloader 09.10 Err:A5,69,35,00,27 Batery OK OK to Program Connect USB"
3. flash ROOTED SBF with RSD Lite
4. stuck in motorola-logo bootloop
5. take out battery
6. hold power button and VOL+ pressed when putting battery back to enter "stock android boot menu"
7. restore factorysettings + wipe cache
8. boot notmal into "horrible motoblur"..
9. install SndInitDefy_2.3.apk
10. install defy_twrp_recovery.2.3.6.0.zip
11. install update-recovery.zip (from quarx kit kat thread)
12. i installed cm-11-20140326-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515036 )
13. SUCCESFUL REBOOT !
Seems direct to CM11 is ok nowdays http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51101948&postcount=731

First boot without gapps and configure phone, then re-boot into twrp and install gapps. Many people use minimal gapps (by banks ?..) because of defy low memory specs..
you find link to BANKS' minimal gapps in Quarx's CM11 kitakat thread, first post i think. or just use search.
best of luck!
