WARNING: Always make sure you have PLENTY of battery power before performing any type of Fastboot restore. 70% of more is high recommended (RSD Lite and the Command Line Method both won't work if you have low battery). We at DroidRzr.com are not responsible for anything you do to your phone, including bricking it.

IF YOU HAVE LOW BATTERY YOU WILL BRICK.

Note: You can also use a command line method with a smaller file-size

Should look like this:


Installation

1) Install the downloaded MotoHelper USB Drivers



2) Extract the Fastboot Files ".zip" to a folder.

3) Install RSD Lite 5.6



4) Run RSD Lite 5.6 after installed.



5) Choose the extracted Fastboot ".xml" file to the folder you put it in.

I have those three files in a folder together. Should I extract the fast boot to the same folder?

Doesn't matter! As long as you can find the .xml file later for RSD Lite.




6) Put your phone into AP Fastboot mode and connect via USB.

Turn off your phone.
If your phone is frozen then hold down the Power + Volume down buttons for 8 seconds and it will turn itself off.

Hold down both Volumes buttons + the Power button and it will boot into a black screen with white text.
Choose AP Fastboot using the on-screen instructions.
(The Volume Up button selects and your Volume Down button moves down, for those who cannot read the on-screen instructions.)
Special Note: If your device says anything other than "Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0" then Private Message me. If it says Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0 then that is normal! Proceed.

Plug your phone into your Windows computer's USB port. It should look like this in RSD Lite:




7) Hit the "Start" button on RSD Lite

8) Wait. Wait. Wait. Wait. Have patience. Wait. It has 18 steps of progress as shown in RSD Lite. Then it will reboot itself and install stuff. After it boots up normally you can unplug it.

9) OPTIONAL: Go back into Moto Recovery but this time choose Recovery. When you get to the "

" with the Android press both Volume Buttons. Choose "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" (This will make sure you are COMPLETELY stock 6.11.744 with no personal data on the system. (Anything in your SD card should be safe, but apps/app data/contacts/etc. will be cleared if you do this).

I've never needed to do this. After it installs the files and reboots it's just...done.

[wyld]

I've always done that even on my droid x got back into bootloader and plug it back in then RSD lite said finnished.

Thanks MATT-- looks easy

I have a problem. I was in my safe system and forgot to switch back to nonsafe as well as disable safestrap. When I tried running the fastboot files (which I have done successfully before), everything looked like it had worked, except it booted into what seems like the same safe rom that I was running right before. Superuser is disabled, so I can't do anything with safestrap. Won't even boot into the safestrap recovery. Also, I can't tell what version I am on when it boots (.744, .788, etc.) because the Settings app closes when I click on About Phone. I have done this whole process 3 times with the same result. Any ideas on how to get back to stock .744 please?

Use this same method, but do Wipe Data/Factory Reset and Wipe Cache like it says in Option 9. Try downloading the Fastboot files again, the download could have also corrupted. If all that still doesn't work PM me and I will get you sorted out.

I followed Matts instructions (after not following his instructions correctly. lol) They work. The volume up to select is what screwed me. He was cool and helped me out. I am happy on .173. I was unable to update since I had my phone. Tx bro.

Totally normal. It is a locked bootloader phone. Proceed with RSD Lite you did everything correct

Okay, thanks for the fast reply..

[RazrBot12]

RSD has been completed and status is finished -- pass. But my Razr screen is stuck on the redeye with lightning for 20 minutes..Did I do something different..??

ooppss got it to work... Just needed to clear/wipe cache/factory reset..its working now;;

I am greatly thankful..

[MrFrankRazr]

This worked for me bro, thanks!

[cdfjr1975]

Worked for me, all three times I did it last night. Even fastboot from 173 when I realized I wasn't rooted still took OTA so I was happy to know i'm stool on ICS path

[KANYONKRITTER]

ok...lets see if i can explain this right. If I put my phone into fastboot and start up rsdLITE my phone is never detected by rsdlite. If the phone is running in the "normal" mode rsdlite puts my phone into fastboot, i can physically see it happen on the phone, but rsd never recognizes the phone is now in fast boot and I get a "phone failed to boot to fastboot mode" error or something like that........any ideas what the problem may be? ive have 5.6, the recent moto drivers, the phone is build .748, I was rooted via doomlords root process, and I was usiing safestrap. |Ive been doing this stuff for quite awhile but am still a noob lol.

[KANYONKRITTER]

anyone have any input?
