Wow I had Desktop\Razr1\Razr1\

After being a noob it did work! Thanks so much! ^^

still no luck charging my phone with it completely off, i might break down and make my own factory cable because i can't buy one from black hat...

You getting the low battery error? Best way I've seen is with phone off plug in a outlet let it sit a day that way, it charges but real slow. I had this on a evo if it went dead I had to use the highest output charger I could find and leave it a full day

I guess i'll give it a try, i had it plugged in completely off for 8 to 9 hours and tried it today and it gave me the same error.....I think if i can't get it to work tomorrow im just gonna go in to verizon tomorrow and act stupid and try and get a new phone since my ear piece has been acting up too once in a while...

If i want to charge my low battery do i get it into my fastboot mode then tap the power button to completely shut it off THEN plug my phone in to the outlet??? When i do that i get the battery symbol with a question mark on it. OR do i have it plugged it THEN turn my phone completely off??

Yea I tried every way i could to try and charge my phone but wasn't happening so I was going to buy a factory cable. I couldn't wait plus they were sold out so I googled "How to make a motorola factory cable" and made my own factory cable. Its actually quite a simple procedure but you have to be able to soldier. All you have to do is take a usb cable like the one that comes with your phone and on the end that plugs into the phone you have to carefully strip the cover and protective plastic and find the pin that doesn't have a wire running to it and jump it from the (power) red wire. I was able to make the cable and get my phone back to stock in under a hour and this is a first for me. I'm glad I didn't give up and get a refurbished phone from verizon through the warranty

Tried everything and spent two days trying to charge my phone and nothing worked so had to go with the method I just explained and it worked perfectly. Once I made my cable I plugged it into my phone first and then the computer and it worked perfectly I was able to run the fastboot without the low battery and get my phone back to stock.

Glad you got it fixed I've been thinking about making myself one can't seem to catch any in stock either

AP fast boot is used for programming your phone. If you hold power and both volume up and down at the same time it will take you to an expanded menu that allows you to go into recovery, reboot, BP tools etc... the way I described in the 1st reply takes u directly to AP fast boot instead of going thru the expanded menu to get there. Either way will work.

I always hold down volume buttons then power to go to recovery. Choose AP Fastboot from there.

Got my factory cable last week from Team Blackhat. I would have just made my own but I didn't want to deal with the hassle and risk not being able to buy one later on. Worked just like it should have. I too left my phone charging for almost 12 hours and it still gave me the low battery message. At first I got a replacement from Verizon, but had issues with it freezing and rebooting itself. Got so irritated with it, so I fixed my old one and sent back the POS replacement.

I did this and the flash seemed to work but when my phone restarted i still have the super user app installed and the Mobile Hotspot exploit still works????

i thought this unrooted the phone?


edit: my phone restarted.... but over on rsd lite it says "Please manually power up this phone" and it is still in process????

i have no idea whats going on... because im able to use the phone at this point but it says the flashing still isnt done???


edit2: im freaking out because ive already started installing the OTA updates and everything... i feel like i'm about to mess things up horribly.

You are fine some times rsd does that but ur booted disconnect cable and move on. When I did it it didn't remove my apps either but I was no longer rooted. And had to reapply root. Super user app was still there

It won't remove the data. You'd have to wipe that yourself. I always wipe data after fastbooting to get "actual stock"
