[FLASH] Motorola Razr Flash Failure [Solution]

[FLASH] Flash failure - Razr [Fix]

So guys, this will be very usefull!

Friends who are experiencing this annoying problem here is the solution.

Whenever he would call my Razr was falling in AP mode Fastboot.

The Device Error LOCKED. Status Code: 0 "

"Fastoboot AP mode (S) (Flash Failure)

QA.6C

To return to normal mode - first press power key to power down

Device to LOCKED. Status Code: 0

Battery OK

OK to Program

Connect USB

Data Cable "

To resolve this problem follow the steps below:

[TUTORIAL]

1. Download the empty_radio.img

2. Turn off the Razr

3. Power On the Razr and select Fastboot Mode AP

4. Open the command prompt CMD

5. Go to the folder where the radio is empty

6. Make flash the radio with the following command and then type "fastboot reboot"

7. Rest assured I tested on my Razr this command does not erase the radio

8. This command will only restart the fastboot

9. Now then turn off the Razr holding vol - and power

10. Plug the Razr holding vol + vol - and power and have it start normally

11. Now restart the fastboot screen will not show more ...

fastboot flash radio empty_radio.img

fastboot reboot

Hey,

What is your razr model please?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] knives809:
Please flash a rom using the alternative flashing method (fla****) by the eternity project and that error will be gone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] whirleyes:
Opening the back cover will destroy the waterproof seal! Seriously you don't want to do this. There's an easy method.

AFAIK, most of the time this error appears on unsuccessful fastboot command. For example, you can get this error by running this command

fastboot boot boot.img

It will spit Info Command restricted! then you'll get this "Flash Failure" error on every boot up.

To clear it ,all you need is to do a successful fastboot command. Assuming you don't do something like

fastboot erase xxxx

then there's no need to do full flash. The simplest way I know is to do

fastboot flash radio empty_radio.img
fastboot restart

It seems this command write to the cache partition(unsigned) & trigger recovery mode.

Once in recovery, Press Vol-Up & Vol-Down simultaneously.

Then select reboot now.

Hope I'm clear & it help somebody.

Attached is the empty_radio file. (There's nothing inside, just ext3 partition with empty recovery folder)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bahathir:
Simply flash radio.img which has the same baseband version or other ROMs. Upon a successful flashing, the 'Flash failure'error message will be cleared.

Good luck

So if i just push this File, my phone will still work normally? Or would i have to Flash another Radio? could this throw me of the OTA-path? I am in gsm btw
[Motorola Droid RAZR] whirleyes:
It just get you to recovery.. It won't do nothing, because the empty_radio.img does'nt include any command., or any bp.img/lte.img... In my phone, It doing nothing harm, If you're worried just select the wipe cache option
[Motorola Droid RAZR] doenis:
Alright thanks mate,, can't wait to get rid of this problem

Edit:

Well the problem solved itself, though i am not quite sure how. i was using a walkie-talkie at work

and just happened to have my phone right next while talking at one point and when i wanted to turn on

the screen, nothing happened. it wouldn't power on at all, not even with the simulated battery-pull.

so i got my charger and when i plugged it in, the charging screen came up, without fastboot beforehand.

also it said my battery was at 5% when i was sure it was almost full just before. i powered up the phone,

again no fastboot-screen. when it was booted, the battery level was back to normal, but the date reset to 13.01.12

and time to 11:00. i put those right, and bam: everything was cool again. i reproduced this by pushing the talk button on

the walkie-talkie again with about 5cm distance to the phone and sure enough, the same thing happened, even the date/time reset.

so my phone is fine now. anyone care to elaborate how that might have worked?

Well, the thing is I tried to flash my razr whit the version of Retail.BR (651.167.3370.XT910.Brasil.en.BR) and everything went just fine, after that I installed this blur version (Blur_Version.651.167.3370.XT910.Brasil.en.BR.zip) aka ICS.

You need fastboot executable to run these steps. This one comes with android sdk, alternately you can search forum or Google for standalone fastboot executable.

Bricked GSM XT910

I dropped my XT910 (GSM) in water, and the device wouldn't turn on ever since. I found another logicboard for it on the eBay and replaced it, working very good. But the new mainboard was running on a rooted 4.0.4 China, and I was quite disappointed with it. It even placed a =86 before any number I dialed, so I tried to change the ROM to an EMEA one, that my older motherboard was running on as directions described here in this link. I tried to use RSD Alternative and tried this method, but I ended up a bricked device. At first I was just constantly directed to AP Fastboot mode, but when I tried to rescue/un-brick my device using the directions in the second link, as it claimed, my device doesn't even enter AP Fastbood mode and I see is the following message. Please guys help me. I tried the method in your post, but command "fastoob"in Windows command prompt would just tell me that this is not a Windows internal or external command.

Thanks it worked . !! reading the threads in this forum I noticed that a lot of you couldn't follow the instructions , .. I'll try to make it easier for you..

First open cmd on windows ( just click on the windows icon, then search "cmd", then, make sure you're in ap fastboot mode on your device if not , turn your device off and press power and vol+ and vol- for a few seconds at the same time to turn it on , A black screen should come out . use the vol- key to scroll and the vol+ to select.

now in your computer put the empty radio file uncompresed in desktop

then in cmd type fastboot then press enter

then fastboot flash radio Desktop\empty_radio.img

it should flash the radio...

then just type fastboot reboot then press enter

I hope this can be of help for anyone..

[Samsung Infuse 4G] AbaddonVH:
(I am on the unofficial CM9 release)

Is this possible? I know the delay was set by Google to keep the screen from rotating when you don't want it to, but it doesn't bother me if it rotates on accident- and if it did bother me I'd just turn off auto-rotate. I'm not looking to speed up the animation, I want to remove or shorten the screen rotation delay. All I can find on Google is people misunderstanding this request, people saying "GOOGLE MADE IT AS A FEATURE I DON'T SEE THE PROBLEM" and people saying "AOKP ROM lets you change it" Okay well, how did the creator of the AOKP ROM do that? What file needs to be changed to modify screen rotation delay?

Thanks.

P.S: I'm not an idiot when it comes to modifying Android, I'm hardly versed in it, but I'm confident with what I do. I'm not some random idiot.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] hengsheng120:
you need to change framework parameters. you can either change the SETTLE_TIME_MS= in the framework (see http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=24869) and compile the rom from source,

or try to decompile framework and change with the method in this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1413304 which may work for ics.

both are somewhat time consuming to do though... so people would rather recommend you flash an aokp rom.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] AbaddonVH:
Well I'm not too keen on compiling a whole rom lol so I tried the framework.jar edit. I followed the directions exactly and when I rebooted I got the "Android Optimizing" like it does after an OTA and... No change. :(

Is the feature a default AOKP thing? Cause if it is I may have to check out the Uniporn rom.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jpcdeux:
In the unicorn Rom control setting at the bottom of general ui is rotation delay. I don't recall if cm9 has same option

Thanks for the help guys, looks like I'll be flashing UNiPoRN. Hopefully I'll be able to MMS with that rom as well.

Flashing a new image (stock one), then reflashing CM fixed it, it appears that the problem was just with the FS and not with the flash memory.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Silentbob999:
Hi,

Glad you fix your issue, can I barrow your thread? The issue is not exactly the same (at least I think) but the title fit so well with the problem and it is in the good category/section.

I have 60mb of unused/unusable/missing space in /datadata.

If I compare the result of command DU vs DF I got a difference of 59M for what is supposed to be the space “used”.

Command: du -sch /datadata

Result: 104.1M /datadata

Command: df /datadata

Result:

Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize

/datadata 172M 163M 8M 4096

The application DiskUsage give me a mysterious “System Data” of 62Mb.

Lost+Found folder is empty but I cannot delete it. Thought I don’t think it’s the issue... Lost+Found folder was showing up with DiskUsage when I got corruption on my emmc. So the situation is different.

I manage to put e2fsck in bin, but my adb don’t connect in download mode… and when the system is up it is impossible to umount “/dev/block/mtdblock6 /datadata yaffs2 rw,relatime 0 0” and neither it is to scan it with e2fsck.

I would like to find a rapid fix for that in case it would re-occur in the future. If we don’t find one I will probably Reset Data/Factory and wipe everything before flashing the rom again and restore with Titanium…

Searching for this issue always lead to either LOST.DIR LOST+FOUND or format, but everybody seems to have that issue on sdcard which is easier to move data,format then move data back…

Is there somebody else have this issue on /datadata? Do you think it may be fix by e2fsck? If yes then how can I run it? Do you have any idea on how to fix that?

Thanks you,

I was not able to find on Linux any repairing tool, that's why I finally used a full image restore and repartition to have the FS recreated and usable again... CWM, CM9 and TitaniumBackup did the rest...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iranzo:
From my understanding /datadata should not be always full, and even if cache is supposed to be cleaned automatically, system will complain if under some MB theresold.

If DU + DF != Total then you may have the same problem I had (reported at dmesg as corruption or failing NAND) which was marking blocks as bad /unusable thus consuming the available disk space.
