[RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KrishnaDasa:
Hello to all,

I am new here so sorry for not being familiar with the lingo but hopefully you guys can help me out.

I have a pretty new Droid Razr HD, got it a few months ago. Annoyed by the stupid and obnoxious "droid" sound at start up, I thought I'd take a go at getting rid of that. I rooted the phone with Dan Rosenberg's exploit as posted on http://www.droid-life.com/2013/04/0...r-hd-running-android-4-1-2-other-devices-too/ and everything worked like a charm. I managed to get rid of the sound as desired and thought "why not put my own audio in?" So I took an audio file, snipped off a bit of it, converted it to .ogg, put it in system/media and renamed it droidpu.ogg and what do you know, worked like a charm. Then I thought "hey, while I'm at it, why not change the bootanimation? I can make my own and have it play along with my audio!" After much effort I finally succeeded at making a working bootanimation.zip file, put it in system/media after renaming the original, turned off my phone, and turned it back on. First I got the Motorola icon and then my bootanimation started playing, but without the music. And then the bootanimation looped once. And then it froze. Now I can't go past there. So I tried everything. I went to AP Fastboot Flash Mode, then held the volume up and power buttons, released the power button when the screen went blank and tried each option available. When I try recovery mode, I see the Android guy laying down with a red ! triangle above him, and then it goes back to the AP Fastboot Flash Mode. [Update on this part here: I did after some searching around find out how to enter the recovery mode options and I did the "wipe data/factory reset", but still the same thing happens when I try to boot up like normal.]

Finally I came across mattlgroff's droid razr utility (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2192467&nocache=1), downloaded it, opened terminal, and tried both options 1 and 2 (I don't care at this point if my data is wiped, I just want to get my phone working again). This is what I got both times:

Your device will now reboot and install radio files, then fully boot normally

After this my phone stays on AP Fastboot Flash Mode with the Fastboot Reason: Flash Failure.

Any suggestions????? Maybe if there is a way to reinstall Jellybean 4.2 from an external sd card???? Or is it possible to access the system files on my droid so I can just delete the bootanimation I made and make the original play again?
