[Q] Help Boot Failure?!?

tman0801 said:

So I recently rooted my Droid Razr M using Saferoot, I then used Safestrap to unlock recovery mode, I then tried to flash CyanogenMod 10.1.3 - xt907 and it did but when it rebooted I got this screen.

AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
10.9B(*) (sha-le9f557, 2013-09-26 13:20:55)
eMMC Info: Size 8GB

Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0

Battery OK

Transfer Mode:
USB Connected






Failed to hab check for boot: 0x56
Fasboot Reason: Boot Failure

I also tried accessing the bootloader and booting into:Normal Powerup, Recovery, AP Fastboot, Recovery and BP Tools to no avail, This is pretty urgent since this is my primary phone. Thanks to everyone in advance

EDIT: I was able to do a factory reset from recovery mode but still boots to the statement in red, is my phone bricked for good/should I contact Verizon anyone with anything they think could help would be very much appreciated.

You did it to yourself.
Locked phones cannot flash a custom rom.

Safe Strap is a pseudo bootstrap recovery, as your kernel & real recovery are locked. Custom roms need a custom kernel. If you find a guide on rsd lite & the restore xml/fxz file you can do without HOM but HOM covers all the pit falls....

Do you know the build you were on? Must have been ...94 or ...1 they are the same.
So get ...94 http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=48380933&postcount=2

It is rooted, but SS is not a custom recovery. It works in conjunction with the stock recovery. Also, the CM Wiki page specifically states that you need an unlocked bootloader to use it.

Avi posted some good links to get this fixed. Your phone isn't bricked. The reason you're getting a boot failure is because you tried to flash over the stock side. Since your BL is locked you ABSOLUTELY CANNOT FLASH OVER THE STOCK SLOT. If you had attempted to create a slot and flash CM there, you would have got a boot fail too. However, you still would have been able to boot into the stock slot and delete the custom slot and start over. Always, always make sure you read and research, prior to doing anything.

edit: The screen you posted in your OP is the Fastboot screen. In that screen is where you will flash with RSD or a recovery script.
