Matt's unbrick utillity Help Please

unbrick

Best Answer Memnoch73 , 03 June 2013 - 06:35 AM

I tried to go to ICS from JB on my droid razr (big mistake) and now it is bricked. can someone please tell me what I need to do to fix this? I tried to run a program to unbrick it but I keep getting a preflash validation error. I saw on the thread where someone said you had to make sure to know where you were coming from when you bricked to make sure you use the right link. Can someone please tell me what link I need to use?

 

 Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks!! 

Jess

Hello,

I have ran the unbrick utillity all went well, but it said to
  • Once done, unplug phone, Boot into Recovery (See Recovery howto)
  • Apply update Blur_Version.6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US.zip reboot (Note: this may take up to 10 Min) Aslo on First boot be patient.

Where does the zip file go and what should it be named?
I have it on the SD card root with the name above and named as update.zip and i keep geting the green android with the red triangle.

Any help would be great.

Thanks, Chuck

Okay, Matt sent me the unbrick utility, and it seemed to work OK (no failures). My phone now just boots up and goes to a black screen. Once the JB leak has been installed, is it impossible to fastboot back to ICS? How can I get it back working on ANY build. Please Help!

You need to reinstall the JB leak from recovery. That should get you to full JB leak and working. No there is no going back to ICS.

I have bricked my phone before as well. I got mine back up and running with utilities no problem at all.

Determine whether you were on ICS when you bricked (Meaning NOT what you were trying to upgrade to but rather where you were coming from) or the JB Leak when you bricked.

The reason it matters is because ICS and JB Leak have two SEPERATE Un-Bricking tools that are NOT COMPATIBLE WITH EACHOTHER!!!

I used this when I bricked attempting to install ClockWorkModRecovery_On_Boot after I accidentally downloaded the wrong file:

JB LEAK ONLY UNBRICKING TOOL:

I was on the OTA JB after using 1.82 to go back to stock from rooted ICS. I maintained root through the update and reinstalled Razr Bootstrap which I believe started the problem. It originally was the cause for flashing back to stock. For some reason, the phone rebooted and thats when trouble began, received same message as you. Used the Unbrick and now that has caused other problems.

Ok Try this... Run Matt's utility and attempt to go back to Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.4). It will fail, I know, because once you are on Jelly Bean (4.1.2) there is NO POSSIBLE WAY back to ICS (because the kernel updates and so far there isnt a method to reverse this); but perhaps if you attempt to run the ICS .zip file install from within recovery, it may wipe the files that are causing the error. Then, run the Jelly Bean Unbrick tool and then install the stock OTA again.

NOTE: This MUST be run from inside of STOCK RECOVERY, it CANT be safestrap, or bootstrap, or whatever else you may be using to run custom ROMs.

One final tip, unroot permanantly and then do a factory reset before ever trying to upgrade. It is much easier to just re-root later using the JB "Razr Blade" root utility.

Ran Unbrick and attempted to load a fresh download of JB. Failed again. Then ran Matt's 1.82. After it finished finally got JB to install and I was back in business. Then JB OTA downloaded to the phone automatically and all is well.

Phone was really messed up, at one point only loading into AP Fastboot with Boot Failure message coming up. Reloading the JB leak to the card seemed to be the trick. Also kept getting battery low after each step of the process in Matt's 1.82 even though the phone had been charging over 4 hours. Would have to unplug, and go back into AP Fastboot to get the battery to reset, then would hit any key to proceed. That seemed to do the trick as well.

Thanks all. Reading everyone's posts and multiple threads was extremely helpful.

Did you try and reapply the OTA from Recovery after flashing?

Yes you can try Matts JB Utility which has the fastboot files. See here:

Well... I a little more successful. I was able to use the jb unbrick. And finally I'm on the jb ota. Only one problem... the phone reboots often.. Battery is at 5 % now, and I have it plugged into the wall outlet. When I turned the phone off to charge...it shows drained bqttery symbol with a question mark inside(?). I don't thinks its charging properly... I do have an extra battery from an original razr that I can put into my Maxx... maybe wipe battery stats?
