I am trying to do this in linux(and maybe throw together a bash script for the linux users) but I keep having trouble. I grabbed hash's linux fastboot.bin off goo, and put that in your folder and made it executable(chmod a+x). I am using your bat for command reference. As far as I know the adb stuff should be the same on win and linux, so I first do:

Great, I am in the bootloader now! All I need to do is use fastboot to flash the moto logo bin, right? So I am doing:

but it just says <waiting for device> even though my device says usb connected. I know adb can be picky sometimes with old sessions so I tried unplugging the phone and plugging it back in. Still waiting...so

Still not seeing my phone..so I reboot and checked usb debugging was on. it is. I checked if adb sees the device while in fuzion. It does.

I noticed the same basic problem, waiting for device, when I unlocked my bootloader. Everything went great. It pushes the files via the adb bridge. It executes it fine. Cleans it up fine, and then it boots in to the bootloader to execute:
read -n 1
and it fails waiting for the device.

Any ideas why my phone cant be seen by adb in fastboot? I am using the android-linux-tools package from the webupd8 ppa on a Kubuntu 12.10 x64 system with a brand new gigabyte mobo.


While I am going to be of very little help here as I know very little about Linux, I will tell you that the only time I've had a problem like this in the past was because of lacking certain drivers. There are different drivers for fastboot, ADB and booted up android. S while it may be communicating just fine while booted, it may not while in the bootloader.

Also, just so I'm clear, when you're in Ap fastboot the command needed to check to communication is:
./fastboot devices

Not ./adb devices

Just wanted to make sure you're using the right command there.

Ah, well tbh ./fastboon.bin devices still is not showing the device. I am probably better off starting a topic on this, thanks anyways.

My next guess would be a driver error. Some of my favorite past times with Linux :rolleyes:

Oh and FYI I tried your utility under a Win 8 VM. I get a pop up saying AdbWinApi.ddl could not be found when it is sitting in the folder like it should be. This confuses me because according to your OP, this is a pretty much set up to be "portable" if you will.

OK in the win 8 VM I installed the moto drivers and android SDK. I added the android-tools folder to my path and rebooted. Now I tried the script and got no error. The script ran and claimed to be rebooting my phone to fast boot but it didn't. So I tried loading cmd and doing things manually. Rebooted fine but once in fast boot the same problem..waiting for device.

Now I did try USB ports on the mono before, but not this time. About the only thing I haven't tried is a different cable..

SUCCESS!! Turns out I simply needed to be root. I am going to try to make up a linux script for linux users and hope you will add it to the OP.

This works so well that I have been changing my boot image just because I can. You can also use this little package to install custom images which requires Photoshop to adjust color and save as a RAW image and then setting the extension file to .img or .bin file. Check out

The .img/.bin files just simply need to be placed in the folder of the extracted Fix Unlocked Bootloader Warning, change the logo.bin to logo.bin.bak and rename the image you want to install to logo.bin (even if its a .img file -doesn't matter).

Only one of the images in the zip file is a .bin file (the Slayer one) it won't flash the other 2. I don't know how to change them to a .bin file. When I try to open them it wants to burn a disc. They are disc image files. Please help.

It's real simple. When you rename it also change the img extension to bin. ;)

I've tried everything I know to try to change the file extension but I can't. Don't mean to seem so stupid.

No I understand. Sometimes the smallest issues can give the biggest headaches. I made some screenshots of how to do this:

Move the file that you want to flash ( I chose Unlocked Android.img)

Lol. I assumed you were doing this through ADB on a computer. Nonetheless, you got it.

can this be used to replace the boot logo in a rooted but locked phone or does it only work for unlocked bootloaders?

If you go back a page I have a post that has a link to someone else's topic on this. His method doesn't work for these phones but he has an excellent instructions for doing this yourself.

Yes, the logo partition is not one that checks for a signature, so unlock is not required to flash a logo.

Yes, I can. Please PM me as to remind me to put this together. It takes some extra scripting. If you PM me, I will get it set up tomorrow, thought :)
