[Q] Bricked droid razr m XT907

hello
When i push the power button I got masasage on the screen "WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED - your device...." and the phone dosent start. I can not power it off - i must waiting to battery goes off . When the phone is unchraged and i plug the charger i got the same screen. Can you please help me ?

Can you provide a tad more details please? What happened to cause this? Did you try to flash anything or modify any system apps? What system version are you on? If you have a custom recovery and made a NANDroid just boot to recovery and restore your back up... Any who in most cases you can just boot to fast boot and flash the stock firm ware all that you need is here

The phone is rooted and have custom boot. I dont know the phone history waths hapens before - i think there is kit kat android with root and there was try to instal an online update. The problem is when the phone i power up its show the screen WARNING BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED and the power of button doesnt power off the phone (i must wait to unchraging the phone and when i plug the charger on, after 3 min the warning screen show automatically) thats why i can not get into recovery mode because the combination power+sound up+sound down doesnt work. Is any option to connect the phone to pc when ist shows te warning screen - does the computer recognised the phone ?

Hold power and volume down for 10 seconds when you see the screen the screen flicker and shut off immediately hold the volume up and down that should take you to the boot menu from there you can go into fast boot and flash stock... Read through the thread I linked it has pretty much everything you need to know and the files to do it with...

Try to flash a boot logo or something simple...Here are some boot logos a successful flash of something may stop you from booting up to fast boot mode

1. First do you know what rom version you where on?, if you do know download that rom then extract from it the stock recovery using Huawei Update Extractor .
2. If there is two files of recovery just choose one, the one without any numbers. So you will have RECOVERY.img file.
3. Now make sure all files needed to recognize your phone are installed and adb is installed too. What you will need now is to push the RECOVERY.img file to the phone.
4. Connect the device to the computer and Put the RECOVERY.img file inside the folder where fastboot.exe is located. Then hold shift and right click to open CMD(command prompt) from there. Once CMD is open run the following code:
adb devices (This will show if your device is connected)
adb reboot bootloader (will reboot the device in bootloader mode)
fastboot devices
fastboot flash recovery RECOVERY.img
5. After this take the rom which you extracted the recovery from and put it in the memory card (dload folder)
6. When phone is OFF hold (volume up + volume down+ power key) together until you see Huawei startup logo then release. The flash process of the rom should start.

Make sure to install Hisuite app on the pc to get all huawei needed drivers , regarding ADB it is installed on the PC you can refer to this website. Before attempting anything please do read up about adb and how to flash files, because many things can go wrong.

Follow the instructions i stated earlier. Put the rom the dload folder( inside it Update.app) in sdcard and flash it by turning off the phone and then hold( volume up+volume down + power) at the same time to begin the flash process or read the pdf file that comes with the rom after you unzip it.

:good: As soon as i got home i'll try! Thank you so much Rashad!:angel:

Try to flash the stock recovery like the way i mentioned. Turn off the device by holding the power until it powers off and remove any usb connections to the pc. Then hold volume down and connect the usb to the pc until you see fastboot mode come up. After that enter the code i gave to flash the stock recovery and then follow the rest of the instructions.

I got the recovery into my phone. But i cannot get in to fastboot again... The screen i took pic is popping up.....

P9-lite bricked. Please help!!

SOLVED!
Hi all i just bricked my phone : P9-lite VNS-L31
I managed to unlock bootloader, install twrp and get root permission. Phone worked great. Then i tried to flash xposed and the operation fails due to not enough memory space (!! i have 6gb) and get stuck in bootloop. I made all the possible things i knowed. Tried to use xposed-unistaller.zip (getting other errors like: "no such file o direcory") , wipe cache,dalvik and data and i try also to reflash stock recovery, and to relock bootloader (i can't do that.. why? i get FAILED <remote: command not allowed>) because erecovery and HiSuite can't restore my phone. What can i do?? It's a simple bootloop but i cant restore it. Please help me i have just bought the phone and now i'm very desperate.
I really hope some can help,
Thank you

Can you flash the stock rom through SD card?
Copy the stock rom file to this path: sd card\dload\UPDATE.APP,
Then, presss Volume + , Volume -, and the power keys to force upgrade your phone.

so thanks for any help

So, i think i can help you to fix your phone.
First of all you need fastboot. So check fastboot drivers on your pc and make sure they work
Now download the stock firmware for VNS-L31 here : http://www.androidvillaz.com/2016/0...vns-l31-to-marshmallow-6.0-b100-firmware.html - It's the only version ready to download and an asian version but flashing only system you'll not notice it. All languages available, no differences at all.
Download and install this tool : http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3262545
So using something like 7zip extract the UPDATE.APP file in your desktop for example.
Launch HuaweiUpdateExtractor and select the update.app.
You need to extract SYSTEM.IMG so right click on it and select extract selected.
Now, turn your p9lite in fastboot mode (power off, press vol - and power) and connect it to your pc.
Now launch this : "fastboot flash system "PATH/system.img" " . Remember to replace "PATH/system.img" with the path of your extracted system.img file including the name of the file.
Wait about 3 minutes.
When flash finalize, boot in recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik and reboot your smartphone. It should boot now.
If not, perform a full wipe. (cache,dalvik and data).
Hope this can help.

Hi, if you don't know what is fastboot maybe you can approach it the easy way.
Download and install this for the correct drivers : http://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/index.html
Download and extract to a folder this : https://mega.nz/#!B4tATA5D!-TseQ9A-TPEQhzNQRXsT_cV2i4T7qYYLadceW0fM8k0
Put your phone in fastboot mode : Turn it off. Connect it to your pc . Long press vol - and power until it boots in fastboot mode (white screen with a green android and other stuff). If you want you can boot in fastboot from TWRP recovery : restart -> bootloader.
Copy your extracted SYSTEM.IMG in the root path of the tool (we can assume its name is system.img).
Now launch the tool and press 000 and enter.
If you have done all right now you can give this : fastboot flash system system.img
Wait about 3 minutes. Perform a cache and dalvik cache wipe. Boot your phone.

Hi,
I am using the standard P9, and getting the Boot Loop also.
I attempted your instructions, and appeared to work - I got the first EMUI initialization screen - and now its gone back to how it was.
Any suggestions?

I think it should work on every phone assuming you are using the right firmware. Do you use the right firmware for the huawei P9 ?? (needless to say it's not the version i posted)).
So if you flashed the right firmware (and i'm pretty sure of this) my advice is to perform a full wipe : Cache, dalvik and data.
If you are still facing the same error consider flashing other frimware parts like boot.img ecc.

I believe so - I am pretty clueless with this stuff.
By firmware, do you mean the stock version? Because I used P9-EVAL09-EVA-B136. Don't suppose you would know the right firmware I require?

I think it's the right version. I am a p9lite user so i don't know specifically the right version of the firmware but i think it's ok. Do you tried a full wipe?

How can I perform a full wipe? Thanks for replying by the way

So, do you have unlocked bootloader and custom recovery (TWRP) ?

I do yes

So, go in twrp recovery (turn off phone, long press vol up and power for at least 3 seconds). When you are in you will see 'WIPE' press it then do the swipe to Factory Reset. You will lost your installed apps and the relative settings but you will not lost your personal stuff such photo,music documents ecc. Let me know if you perform it and if it works =)

It appears that TWRP no longer appears. I get thr EMUI options to wipe data/factory reset. But once I do this I just get a red exclamation mark.
Does the phone need to be plugged in via USB?

lock the bootloader of my Mi A1 running on 8.1

Hey guys! Hope you all are doing well
I wanted to lock my Mi A1's bootloader without losing data , twrp and magisk aren't installed.
Will the fastboot oem lock command work?

I dont know if it will but u can try
---------- Post added at 04:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:14 PM ----------
but if it doesnt work u can just do this:
enable automatic backuping in the settings and also download google photos (if u dont use it u scub) and wait for it to backup ur photos
its good for backing up ur photos and saving A LOT of storage on ur phone
download the stock rom from here: http://en.miui.com/download-333.html
and download this tool: http://en.miui.com/forum.php?mod=att...kxMTB8ODA3MjUy
decompress the rom even if u dont actually see that anything is inside when u open it from winrar
make sure google backed up everything and if it did then reboot ur phone to bootloader mode and start the tool
click on refresh in the tool and u should see ur phone string
then click on browse and take it to this folder
tissot_images_V9.6.4.0.ODHMIFE_20180712.0000.00_8. 0_735823083f\tissot_images_V9.6.4.0.ODHMIFE_8.0
matters what u chose it might be just: tissot_images_V9.6.4.0.ODHMIFE_8.0
then in the bottom right make sure its clean all and lock
and then press on flash and wait, i heard someone say they bricked their phone when they flashed using miflash because a power outage happend and the proccess stopped so make sure u dont accidentally unplug ur phone from the pc
when finished the phone will auto restart itself and u should be having stock rom
and then in setup restore to ur google backup and then it will download the apps from google play store so it might take a while if u have slow internet connection
if u have any questions I'll be glad to answer them if I can

Hey guys! Hope you all are doing well
I wanted to lock my Mi A1's bootloader without losing data , twrp and magisk aren't installed.
Will the fastboot oem lock command work?

I think that is not possible . Unlock and lock bootloader equal format data .

So basically I can lock the bootloader through that command but I'll end up with wiped system?

Remember that you must have stock recovery and stock system without root when you can lock bootloader . Yes , relock bootloader always format data . Do you remember what happened when you unlock bootloader ?
But you can try this . Do a backup before

Good lack

you can bypass wiping by pressing and holding "volume -" while executing the command

Turn the phone into fastboot mode, then connect it to pc
Open cmd from fastboot/platform tools folder
Type:
fastboot devices, to make sure that your device is detected.
Then type
fastboot oem lock - before pressing enter hold the volume down button.
Press enter, keep holding volume down until phone restarts to fastboot.
Release volume down button.
Type:
fastboot reboot.
Voila, you will have locked bootloader without wiping data.
Tried this numerous time and never lost data!

tb-7104f root?

Any hope in getting root for this model? from my research it seems to be rootable, but I can't find any rom or anything for it, even here in xda.
Any kind of help is greatly appreciated

IT IS NOT THAT MUCH HARD
i found a way to do it
>>First download latest magisk apk

>>Then download stock rom here

[Sorry but u cant use latest firmware cuz its not available]
>>Then extract it and get boot.img
>>Patch it using latest magisk manager
Now lets go to install it
U can use pc if u have but if u dont then follow these steps
Share firmware file and patched boot file to other device and install bugajear app on other device [link- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.sisik.hackendebug]
>>Then open ur tab go to settings enable developer option and then enable oem unlocking and usb debugging on it
>>Enable usb debugging on other device also
>> Connect both through otg and then allow permission then reboot ur tab to bootloader [power+volume up button] u can use app also for that
NOW LETS UNLOCK BOOTLOADER FIRST [it will eras ur data take a backup]
>>Open bugajear after u boot into bootloader
>>Go on last option with sign of electricity and press on [<>] bottom right of ur other device
>>Type [fastboot flashing unlock] then run it
>>Choose yes on ur device with volume buttons [ sometime u press right volume button but it doesn't work then try other]
>>It will erase ur device but ur bootloader is now unlocked now just reboot to bootloader again
>> Now type [ fastboot flash boot ] click on embed sign on top right corner and then link ur file and run it
>>Now just extract ur firmware on other device too and get these files
System.img
Vendor.img
And flash them this is really needed or u end up in bootloop
And tada ur all set just reboot ur device and ur rooted
I am also tryibg to get twrp but it will take sometime

Thank you @Aks BRAR SOTHA.

My main goal is to use the tablet as an LCD display for my PC sensors.
I need root to auto enable tethering on usb plug.
Device is still rebooting from the flash for now, but I think it should have done the trick for my purpose.

@Aks BRAR SOTHA Did you manage to prevent Android from updating ?
It tries to update and update fails. Then try again and again..
Edit: For my purpose, I can just disable WiFi, and no more update. But this is not the elegant way :/

Thats the big problem preventing it is not possible
If u are using internet from other device u can shift from wifi hotspot to bluetooth hotspot
I dont know any other way

I just found this thread and thanks for the instructions. I was able to successfully root my tablet using this method. Of course it kept wanting to update and failed during the process so I thought I would try to get the update patched...
with the device rooted (with the old firmware) allow the update to download
get a shell with `adb shell` and then `su -` (approve the root request on the device)
the zip file is located in `data/data/com.lenovo.ota/fileslenovoota` unzip it and copy boot.img to somewhere the magisk app can find (I used `/sdcard/Download/`)
patch the boot.img with magisk
use adb pull to get the patched img onto your computer
boot into fastboot and flash the original boot.img, system.img, vendor.img from the zip provided above (in the original instructions)
reboot the tablet. The update should now be able to complete
once complete, reboot into fastboot again and flash the updated patched boot.img
reboot and you should be on the latest version and be rooted.
I've also attached the patched boot.img from the update
