If that's not the issue then it's rejecting the FXZ for whatever reason.  We've seen this happen with countless 907 and 926's...the flash mem goes bad, causes a bootloop, and doesn't allow you to rewrite the partitions.  It's a sign of a hardware failure in most cases.  Still, I'd make sure you have the right FXZ and try again.  Also make sure it's fully charged before trying to flash.  Other than that, there's not much else that can be done.

Sam I have benefited numerous times in the past from your diligent work and always been an admirer, so I'm gonna ask once more if you can advise me where to locate fxz files for an old Bionic I need to resurrect. One of the Droid turbo2 phones I have needs to be sent back to Moto and I need a phone to use in the interim, I have tried to find the files online without any success. TIA

Looks like there might be some working links in Obsidian's drive files -

Much Thanks

I have a Droiz RAZR M that keeps booting up to the red eye, and just hangs there.  I've tried doing a hard factory reset, but it still does the same thing.  Should following this flash procedure fix it?  The instructions mention a warning about unlocked bootloaders.  Will I have to unlock the bootloader before I can use this procedure?  Can I do that with the stuck-at-the-red-eye issue?  If so, how?  Thanks.

The only difference between flashing a phone with a locked bootloader and one that is unlocked is that with a locked bootloader you can only flash the exact version of software or newer. If you try to flash an older software if you are lucky you only get a security error.  You just have to do the research and make sure you get the right software for your phone.  Search carefully and only flash when you are sure of the software.  Most of the sites that had the software listed ceased to exist about 9 months ago due to a data rights management crackdown.  When you locate the right factory software just set up and follow the instructions for HOM exactly.  Reading through the 19 pages of posts isn't a bad idea because about all the problems have been brought up and discussed.

Make sure you find the correct firmware for your device before flashing.  Flashing firmware for any other model will permanently brick your phone.  I don't have any working links for firmware these days so you'll have to search.

Thank you so much for that link to firmware and also this thread!  It worked like a charm.

Hi, I'm having some issues and would appreciate any help I can get. Thanks in advance!

 

-Model of phone

Droid Turbo

 

-Exact system version the phone was on before flashing (4.1.2 is NOT a version)

Honestly, I am not positive which version I was running before.

 

-Exact filename of the FXZ you are attempting to flash

I think that this is the issue here. I am not sure of which Droid Turbo FXZ to use. I have tried about 4 different ones, most recently the VRZ_XT1254_SU2-12_12_CFC.xml.zip version

 

-The text of the AP Fastboot mode

AP Fastboot Mode (Secure)

BL: moto-apq8084-70.86 (sha.8bfdfd, 2015-04-06, 16:09:43)

Baseband: MDM9625_104351.17.02.71.13R QUARK_CUST

Product/Variant: quark XT1254 64GB P4A

Serial Number: xxx

CPU: APQ8084 ES1.1

eMMC: 64GB Hynix RV=07 PV=03 TY=57

DRAM: 3072MB Hyix S8 SDRAM DIE=6Gb

Console (NULL): null

Battery OK (Charging)

Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0

Software status: Officical

-The contents of the flashme.bat/sh file from the HouseOfMoto/MOTO folder

-Details of everything you've "tried"

Again, I have tried a few different Images as there a large number out there for droid (all from firmware.center). I have also tried with and without erasing the GPT partition.

 

-Any other pertinent information that will help us diagnose and fix your problem.

This problem stems from having accidentally selected force RTL layout in Developer options, which caused system UI to crash. This occurs immediately on startup. That being said, all the plumbing (including sound notifications) works just fine

 

Thanks again so much for your time!

[SamuriHL]

Looks like you're flashing the wrong image to your device.  If your bootloader is not unlocked, you must flash the same version or higher than what's currently on your phone.

[surfhiggins13]

Thanks for the quick response. I tried again with what I believe to be a recent version, but did not have any luck. Here is the generate log and run output

I don't know what you had installed previously but pre flash validation errors mean it's not liking the image it's receiving. Not really sure.

Hmm, haven't had any luck with finding the correct image in that case. I have tried pretty much every one under the Droid Turbo category. Could it have anything to do with the "multiple XML files found warning?"

 

Thanks again

[SamuriHL]

It's unlikely. I'm not sure what the latest image is.

Thanks so much for the help guys, successfully flashed the phone.

 

However, it did not fix the problem so I'm assuming that the configuration settings for developer options are stored in the user data partition

[livinginkaos]

Then erase data
