Fixed [Q] bootrom corrupt don't reboot seek xda rom backup fail

Bought on crapbay last week said unlocked but I don't know how.
So I prepared, with syncing to google
then in this order maybe silly:-
visionary temproot -ok
permroot -ok
titanium backup removed all crappy vodafone 360 lock-in apps
titanium backup done ok
busybox installed
rommanager - flashed clockworkmod recovery said succesful
PROBLEM
tried clockworkmod backup current rom -blackscreen attention yellow triangle !
stuck there... hold vol+ and power
bootmanager gave choice as elsewhere described -reboots 1st time bit funny no desktop/wallpaper black, rebooted fine...
tried nandroid backup no success either
hold home and press power button? home isn't a real button on htcHD difernt buttons maybe..
(don't dare try now) There is no directory on the device called by the date...
tried "Desire HD easy s-off" from windows7,phone-batteryonly yes?!
claimed I didn't have root! Thought maybe thats how it had been previously been unlocked.
so I checked the s-off already and ran again..
"Bootrom corrupt, don't reboot, seek help at xda"
Device works until reboot or power down I suppose.
rommanager claims sd card not mounted so can't try/do backup from there. but rommanager is lying cos I can play games on the sdcard?
plus if rommanager does same as last time I'll have to rebbot and can't now.
Help and advice very welcome

Ah yes well not sure it's ok, but..
I tried soff again and this time noticed the phone asking for su permission... once clicked seems ok. didn't see it last time probably cause of problem?
all done your device is now eng s-off
does this mean I can reboot? am I ok?

No
rommanager crashed as soon as I tried it. Now
LOOP
process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. please try again LOOP

It is OK now. You just did not tap the "allow" last time. Just reboot to get rid of FC loop

You were right rebooted ok. thanks
But I'm still stuck with the red triangle! when backing up rom?
and reboot into clockwork recovery mode also red triangle !
how can I backup ROM?
hold home and power doesn't work from off at all.
tried hold vol+ an power no joy
how to back up ROM?
My biggest question is will I be able to turn off vibrate everywhere in cyanogen including market and sms etc where it won't turn off at all. Vibrate sucks battery like an electric whore!

Did you pressed the "install clockworkmod recovery" button in fastboot?
And yes, you can turn off vibrations

now you mention it fastboot flashes up and down so quick I can't see it.
and I now know recovery mode is power and volume down, but that doesn't work either...

Fixed
So rom manager needed me to go stand outside to do a backup. needs a signal to do internal stuff. Go figure.
thanks all

Just start again, sometimes it messes up, but you generally just start again with flashing the clockworkmod. Make sure the download wasnt corrupted by doanloading everything again though, although ignore the bit about adb rboot bootloader, you need to start the phone manually by use power + volume-down key combination to get into bootloader when its powered off and continue from point 5.

Thanks, I will give that a try

Relac, its actually pretty hard to completely bust these things. Dont quote me on that though lol

Don't freak out. I'm sure you're fine.
Unlocking the bootloader on my N10 caused me to hang at the X. Wiping data fixed it for me. Try the following:
1. Reboot into Fast Boot
2. Select Recovery using volume rocker. Hit power to select. You'll get the android mascot with the red exclamation point.
4. Press Power and Volume Up at the same time.
5. Choose to wipe all data. Confirm the selection.
6. Reboot.

So I didn't originally flash the recovery image, just booted into it. So I tried that again, but there is nowhere to find the SU_BusyBox_Pack.zip. I tried the sideload method, but ADB can't find my device any more. It shows nothing when I do adb devices.
what else can I try ?

Were you able to try wiping data through the stock recovery?

I got stuck after just booting into recovery as well and immediately exit. Just use the volume key and change it until you see recovery, without going into it, I just fastboot flash recovery recovery.img from pc, then factory reset.

Send Razr I to fastboot mode 3 forms (Visual)

Hello
A greeting first of all, I make this visual tutorial for those who have been difficult to send your Razr I fastboot mode
I hope it will help or serve.
The end is press the Volume Down + Power and hold them until the phone restarts.

the 2nd Form
(Volume Down + Power button, leaving them to turn off the screen, then release the power button and wait the reboot, hold the volume button down)
3rd Form
(With the phone turned off, press and hold the Volume Down button, connect the phone via USB cable to the PC, wait to restart the Fastboot menu hold the volume button down)
This is done with the phone on, off or in the process of starting or restarting.

This doesn't seem to work if you have an unlocked bootloader?
Or at least it doesn't for me on GB 91.2.29001
EDIT: Ok, it seems the timing is different compared to the earlier Jelly bean rom, You have to let go of the power button immediately when the phone vibrates as it's powering on but still hold VOL DOWN

For those who can't go to fastboot using these methods.
The easier way, I think, is to use adb.
Just plug your phone to a computer with adb installed.
Execute the following commands:
Code:
adb devices
to make sure your phone is detected
Code:
adb reboot recovery
to reboot to recovery
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
to reboot to bootloader
Hope it helps !

Yes friend thanks .... But the main idea is from the phone, in brick cases for example ......... Besides when you no have root.
remember that when we are new, many do not know how to handle command window, or as used adb.exe and fastboot.exe files
Or for use a reboot menu apk's, root permissions are required, so that the three methods mentioned are universal.
And certainly one of them work for you

If you don't have root or anything, you can press Power + Vol - and your phone will reboot. When you see the Green led on, release Power button but continue pressing Vol - and tadah. You're in fastboot.

Sorry, I didn't see anything talking about bricked phones...
Anyway, using adb is not that complicated. If you are an android user, and attempt to root/unlock your phone, then you should already be prepared to know how to use some command line basics. adb is essential after rooting a phone, to push apk, backing up things or whatever.
By the way, root is not needed for these commands to work.
Also remember that using a command line prompt is needed to unlock the bootloader.

Again, this serves to any Android user without any knowledge of command lines ....... at least I think so, we all started this way..... one starts knowing or at least common people ..... you must be an exceptional case .... I'm sorry .... I did thinking of ordinary people, like me

I totally understand your point of view. It is a good idea to give these clear explanations.
Thanks for telling me I'm exceptionnal
By the way, IT is my job for nearly ten years, I'm a developper, so these things are like riding a bicycle for me.
I understand everyone has started like this one day, that's why I'm giving here another approach, maybe nerd like
But I persist, this is not complicated at all. Just type on a keyboard a few words.
On Windows:
1. Press Windows+R
2. Type cmd and enter
3. enter the adb command
Only 3 steps and nothing about the exact timing to match with the volume+power buttons methods.
Linux users should already be confident with a command line. (Sorry for Mac users, never used a Mac ...)

i cant get into fastboot!!!
HI, my razr i XT890 is bricked, i have tried the 3 ways for fastboot and no one have worked for me, i'm sure in doing it right, i am also completly sure it is not a battery issue because i have opened the phone and charged the batery externaly and verified with multimeter it is charged.
When i try to turn on the phone it turns on the green led, vibrates 2 times, shows 'm' logo and then turns off and when it does it shows a couple of green lines under the m logo and thats all,
if i connect to lap it does the same thing, in every of the 3 ways of fastboot i have tried it does the same thing,
i have also found some other post that recomend an unbrick method when only turns the green led holding the camera button while connecting to lap and executing an unbrick file, in that case only it Doesn't do the same thing, in fact it seems like if it could work but after it reboots, it does the same thing,
i have no tried to modify the software before this, i didn't tried to root, nothing, thats why it is so strange to me this happens.
i haven't find in any other blog, forums, someone else with the same problem, PLEASE HELP!!!

[Q] I think that I really broke my defy (MB525)

Help me, please!
Yesterday, I wanted to make a clean install for the latest Quarx's CM 10.1 nightly (I've been flashing Quarx's builds for almost a year now, he's The Best), but I think I made a terrible mistake.
When I wanted to make a factory reset, I've got this error because the sd-ext, I understand, that happened because TWRP's structure with almost all devices running Android 4.2.2 have a virtual-sd and a sd-ext, so I decided to make an Advance wipe and I every damn box, even wipe system and wipe sd card.
Finally when I rebooted my phone, TWRP asked to install SU, I pressed yes.
Then when my phone was rebooting, I've got this error:
Bootloader
09.10
Err:A5,70,39,00,27
So, I've been flashing Froyo's .sbfs since yesterday, when I get pass verification from RSDLite and rebooted the phone, it just keep bootlooping, I left it almost 15 minutes and still in Froyo's bootanimation, I know it has to do because it's needed wipe data and cahe, but I can't do that because I can't access stock recovery (volume down+power button), I just get the triangle with the little Android in it.
Here's is the .sbf
JORLA_U3_3.4.2_108-5_SIGNED_USAJORDMR1B25CLALALA022.0R_JORLAFROCLALALA_P027_A018_M016_HWp3_WIG147154_Service1FF.sbf.gz
And I did it with RSDLite 5.6.
Hope you can help me, thanks anyway.

I am new to the Defy, but managed to root and move to CM7 and all seems good. I just wondered if there is a version of bootmenu that uses touch screen rather than volume and power buttons? I thought one of the ICS ROMS had a touch screen recovery, but maybe I am thinking of HTC.
Thanks.

I think Quarx merged that bootmenu when he started to make his 2ndboot nightlies for CM10, but I don't know how to install it separately from his .zip files, you should download some of the latest ROMs a see if you could merge the bootmenu to CM7.

where are you download this Froyo's .sbfs?

This thread should help (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982), in there you'll be able to find everything you need to fix your phone.
First download RSDLite, then search for a sbf suitable for your country.
Then flash it, you need to have Motorola drivers installed and plug the phone on bootloader mode (press volume up+power button), you have to paste the sbf file you extracted in the RSDLite folder, then just execute it and browse the sbf file, finally press flash and wait.
When you read "please start your phone manually" or something like that, disconnect your phone, remove the battery for five seconds then start it on bootloader mode and plug it.
Your phone should boot to Android.
If you get stuck on bootanimation, wipe data and cache from stock recovery (volume down+power button, when you see the triangle press volume volume up+volume down).
Your phone is ready to go now.

d802 can't get to recovery/boot!

Hi all,
I think I am in some serious trouble right now.. I tried to flash the latest carbon ROM on my device, but completely
forgot to flash the kernel.
I cannot connect to my device using adb (really can't remember if i didn't enable it, been flashing a couple of ROMS tonight ).
I can however, use fastboot.. But what use is that? Can I somehow restore or get to my recovery?
Any help is appreciated!!
Thanks in advance.

If you got to the hard reset screen and pressed power two times but could not get to recovery, its possible that you no longer have any recovery (CWM or TWRP). In some roms, a recovery image is sometimes flashed overwriting the recovery image that you previously installed.
Best bet may be is get back to stock. Try this thread, hope it helps.
