Ok. I won't need the snapdragon_FXZ_Support files or any additional files like that right? Just House of Moto and my FXZ?

 

That is correct.

How is this tool different from RSDLite? Jw.

[SamuriHL]

If you truly mean RSDLite and not RSD Flasher (which wraps RSDLite in similar functionality to the House of Moto) then RSDLite is a tool written by Moto to flash FXZ's.  It will flash whatever is in the XML file contained in the FXZ.  The House of Moto (and RSD Flasher) gives you a bit more control over what is flashed.

Okay, don't hurt me too bad.I thought I would give your tool a shot.  I'm usually very good at solving my own issues, and I read this thread page by page as well as the OP at least 3 times, lol. This is probably something really stupid on my part I'm guessing but when I run the .jar file the .tgz that I copied into the IMAGES folder doesn't show up in there. It's definitely in there and is a .tgz. Any thoughts? Thanks

Not off the top of my head. Don't remember if it's one of the supported extensions or not. I'd take a look but unfortunately you picked the wrong weekend to have an issue. I'm buried at work at the moment. I'll look in a couple days if you're still having issues.

No worries. Just ended up using fastboot. Was more of a curiosity to give this a try. Seems like a cool utility, I look forward to trying it in the future. Thanks

Trying to get my phone out of a bootloop that the phone managed to put itself in. It's an xt907. I've installed everything as directed. When attempting to run flashme.sh, I first encountered these errors.

./flashme.sh: line 3: syntax error near unexpected token `;'

./flashme.sh: line 3: `;Generated script from the House of Moto 4.1.'

I went into the script and deleted the second and third lines beginning with semicolons. I tried running the script again, but now I'm getting "./flashme.sh: line 3: OS: command not found" at first and then "fastboot: command not found" on every command the script tries running. What am I doing wrong here?

[gwade12]

Ah, I think the issue is now in my line where the script attempts to change my path. PATH=/HouseOfMoto/TOOLS/Mac OS X:$PATH Mac OS X does not exist. Only Windows, Linux, and Darwin. Which is correct for me?

[gwade12]

I'm on a Mac running Yosemite.

[gwade12]

Tried Linux and I get "cannot execute binary file."

Tried Darwin and I get "< waiting for device >."

 

Here is a copy of the generated script.

PATH=/HouseOfMoto/TOOLS/Darwin:$PATH

   fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

}

     y*)  flashGPT ;;

Not been tested on Yosemite.  Waiting for device means that fastboot is looking for your device.  If you manually do a fastboot devices from a terminal does it find your device?  If not, solve that issue then run the flash script.

[gwade12]

Switched to my sister's PC. Still getting the waiting on device issue. Total noob when it comes to command prompt, and I'm not too savvy with terminal and bash. I just know a little. Hopped back on my Mac and tried ./fastboot devices in TOOLS/Darwin, and it does nothing. If i try fastboot devices it tells me fastboot is an unrecognized command. How would I test it on a PC? I'd much rather just use the PC and I know that I definitely have the drivers installed on here.

[gwade12]

Getting the same issue on the PC. fastboot devices lists no devices. I've got the phone connected and in AP Fastboot Flash Mode. It says "Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0

Battery Low

Transfer Mode:

USB Connected"

[gwade12]

I should mention - this is my friend's phone. I have no idea what fxz he had. No clue what computers he's connected it to. One day it just randomly got stuck in a boot loop. Sticks on the red eye until (I think) the battery dies. Then it sits for a few minutes and tries to boot again. He really wants the pictures he has stored on the phone.

[spainter]

Before you do anything else get the battery charged up. The one sure way to perm brick a phone is to try to flash with a low battery.

[gwade12]

I can't get the battery to charge up. It continually tries booting up by itself, and just runs the battery back down. I left it plugged in all night last night.

[gwade12]

I'm trying to find some proper drivers and hoping that will help the computer detect my device.

You are going to end up buying a "Team Blackhat adapter" which will supply power to the phone while flashing.  You can do a google search for it. I don't have their current link available right now.  They are about $10.00

[gwade12]

How long does a flash take? I feel like the phone will have enough juice for one now that I've let it charge while on the Flashboot screen.

[gwade12]

I've just tried using RSD instead. Still nothing. Everything pops up like it's going to work, then it all just disappears. I end up with a KEEPDATA.xml in my directory with my extracted fxz. I've tried using different USB ports on the computer too.
