[Q] problems with my droid RAZR m

So for whatever reason I cannot unlock my boot loader and I cannot download most apps. As of now I have deleted every app except for the system apps. I'm rooted with towelroot, and I have approx 3gb free for downloading apps. I can download clash of clans, but I can't download anything else. I've tried to clear my cache. I've tried to uninstall the updates from the play store. I even moved everything (pictures downloads and music) to my SD card. Nothing will work. I thought (because I don't know much about this) maybe if I unlock my boot loader and get a custom ROM I'll be able to download stuff. I can't unlock my boot loader. When I'm in fast boot mode and try running fastboot devices nothing shows up. I also tried RSDlite and the only way a device shows up is if the phone is turned on. When I try to change it to bootloader from RSDlite itself my phone will go to bootloader but RSDlite doesn't acknowledge that its in fast boot. Can anyone help me out..? Or should I just deal with it and save up some money and get a new phone?

Have 6.4.0 drivers installed, RSD Lite 6.1.6 installed, phone in fastboot mode connected via USB to computer under Windows XP or 7, and that's it! You're ready to flash )
What step you stuck on?

I'm using windows 8 and I know theres the problem, so I looked it up and fixed it. I have RSDlite 6.1.6. And for whatever reason it doesn't show my device when it is in fastboot mode. It'll show the device when its turned on, but in fastboot nothing shows up.

Fixed how? I couldn't get Win 8 to work with RSD.

Help me! Im stupid!

So a while back I rooted my Huawei P8Lite ALE-UL00 (China) and it took a while but it worked out great. Then a few weeks ago I was sick and browsing on my phone when I got a notification from EMUI telling me to update. Being the stupid kid I am I did it. And then it would show the Huawei logo on and on and on. Destined to fix it went to the forums to fix it. did ADB and Fastboot, nothing. Except more problems. Now when I turn it on it directly says this:
RESCUE MODE
Attention!
Please update systems again
Update Use Guide:
--- Android Logo ---
Error!
Func NO : 10 (boot image!)
Func NO: 2 (load failed!)

you can simply flash it by fast boot mod, flash the rom version UL-00-C00-B220
which update version did you got ??

Yes , you need fastboot b220 . Later OTA b230

You could try to only flash the boot.img via adb.

One Problem
I cannot fastboot it, it doesnt take me out of that screen, on my computer it says waiting for device, if i type fastboot devices it doesnt show up. Any other ideas?

Well, first try again and dont forget to close hisuite it does that problem.
If it didint work, turn your device off then hold down volume down button and after 3-4 seconds connect your device to computer via a USB cable it should access you to the bootloader then flash the firmware manually.

important

PC doesn't recognize my LG (download mode)

Hey guys!!!
Can you please help me with this?
Yesterday i tried to install a new ROM on my LG Android phone (My LG phone is not working properly, it has a reboot loop). I tried to do a factory reset without success -> the dead Android logo appeared :/
I put my phone in Download Mode and connected to the pc but Windows does not recognize my phone.. it says: "USB device not recognized.. the last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned and Windows does not recognize it"
I do not know what to do now.. when i try to flash a ROM with the LG Flash Tool it fails because LG program does not recognize my device..
PS: LG Support Tool recognizes my phone (it shows the model) but i cannot flash a ROM
Thanks!!:fingers-crossed:

Were you using a custom recovery? (i.e. TWRP)? If so, are you able to boot into recovery? It was a few years ago but whenever that happened to me I would have to use the hard reset option. If I remember correctly, on my LGG2, I would hold down the power button and the volume down button at the same time until the LG logo appears, then right when it appears, release and re-press both buttons again holding them down again until the hard reset option showed. Then when it asked me if I was sure I wanted to reset my phone, select yes (it made nervous the first ten times or so). Eventually I began to trust it would, in fact, do what I was informed it would do which was boot into TWRP without actually resetting anything. From there I was always able to flash a new ROM etc. Anyway, if you knew all that sorry, just trying to help. If not, please get second opinions since I will not be held responsible for your device and since it's been years since I tinkered with mine. Having a Samsung now, I don't mess with it cause rooting a Samsung Note trips Knox and then Samsung Pay is disabled.
Anyway, happy flashing and best of luck to you. It was an awesome hobby while I was involved with it.
Cheers!

the first image said 'oem_locked', is that right? bootloader was locked, so you cannot flash via adb

[Urgent help] Xiaomi Mi A1 Unlock bootloader

Hi All,
I'm new to this as I'm not an Android developer but a good Android user. Requesting moderator to update anything required.
I've Xiaomi mi A1 and it was working for the last 3 years. Last Sunday, it just got hanged while kids were playing with it(maybe multiple apps/videos/some ad clicked) and it got hanged.
I restarted and it stuck on "Android One" screen till now even after multiple attempts.
What I tried:
1. I tried to wipe/factory reset from the Android recovery option(power off + volume up) then it stuck there saying "Formatting data" and I've restarted it to come back to Android One screen after hours.
2. I tried using MiFlash tool and it continues throwing the error "remote device is locked. cannot erase".
Then I got to know bootloader must be unlocked. and for that:
1. I tried fast boot oem unlock but it just says OK and device reboots. When I check status back, it's again locked .
2.I tried to unlock it using MiFlashUnlock tool but it says not able to find account details as I may have logged in once but probably I may not have used Xiaomi as cloud instead I prefer Google cloud.
You can assume I'v already searched possibly all threads on the internet and added here all possible information.

Is there anyone on the platform who knows on this issue?
Or it's just a platform of Ads?

oooooof, sounds like a harsh brick from some sort of malware downloaded into the device or your kids diddled with some kernel settings somehow
is your device running on qualcomm snapdragon? i have the fix for it in this site
but first try the update option on the recovery, might fix something

found some fix on a russian website, gonna translate it:
im gonna make a warning there off-script of the russian website, this is NOT guaranteed to work. if it doesnt, send it off for repairs.
what do you need to do this:
1 - fully charge the phone
2 - a working usb cable
3 - a computer with wifi on it (i can tell you have it since you likely posted it on the computer)
4 -you should have Mi flash pro
5 - a recovery image on chinese (WARNING: 1.9 GB, BE PATIENT)
6 - actually working braincells and hands ( you guaranteedly have em)
THE STEPS:
1 - Load in mi flash pro and register in it under your name (not always under your name)
2 - press recovery
3 - you should see a lightning bolt icon along with the IMEI of your device
4 - type in the path of the firmware
even if your device shows your system has been destroyed you can still boot into recovery.
5 - in your device boot into recovery
6 - you see connect with mi assistant? choose that option and confirm it
your device should direct you to connect the usb from your computer to your device
7 - After you setup everything you should see your device, if not, press refresh device, then you should see the flash button, press it
8 - and there begins the magic - wait 5-10 mins for the firmware to initialise, DO NOT DISCONNECT THE USB FROM YOUR DEVICE AT THIS POINT, IF YOU DO, YOU WILL SCREW IT UP AND HAVE TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN!
if you dont screw up and your device actually boots congratualtions! the power of xi jing ping has restored your phone to normal with a small drawback - its all in chinese
worry not, it doesnt end here:
9 - Unlock the bootloader AKA Unlock OEM (This is important, because otherwise you will brick yourself again and will have to do it all over again)
10 - boot your device into fast boot and flash the global firmware onto your device (the global firmware can be found on the same xiaomiui website you got the chinese firmware from)
i hope this lengthy guide helps

crud, i forgot the critical part:
it doesnt boot you to the average xiaomi screen, its the A1 model
at this point you need to use the ADB to flash the chinese firmware and unlock the bootloader on the chinese firmware, then flash the global one
though you can still use the same method i typed above

How's the progress so far?
