I recently hard bricked my Razer Phone 2(bootloader locked, but the OS got corrupted, and can no longer access recovery), and I need some help from a person with a working, rooted RP2. I found this guide for unbricking phones using an SD card(for those that want to see the guide, the link is here), but it requires information from a working version of the RP2.
For anyone interested in helping, here are the steps:

You will need:

Razer Phone 2(obviously)
SD Card(at least 64+ GB)
Root
Terminal Emulator(on the play store)
Busybox(link here)


Steps:
0.) Clean up your files. The finished file will have your entire internal storage within it. I don't wanna see any weird stuff(also clean your SD card and ensure it is exFAT; this file is going to be very big).

1.) Place the SD card into your RP2.

2.) Start up Busybox and install dependencies.

3.) Start up Terminal Emulator, and type this in:
4.) Then type this in:
ls /storage
5.) Find a hexadecimal set of numbers and letters(for example: 7368-9BEE); keep track of that set of numbers for now, as it is the name of your SD card.

6.) Then type this in(fill in [NAME OF YOUR SD CARD] with the set of numbers you found from step 5):
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/storage/[NAME OF YOUR SD CARD]/Loader.img
7.) Wait until the process is done(WILL MOST LIKELY TAKE A LONG TIME; BE PATIENT).

8.) If you see a "Loader.img" file in your SD card(may be around 60+ GB), you're done.

9.) Copy the file to your computer. It should be very large.

For those that complete it, I would be grateful if you could share the file(through Google Drive or MEGA) so that I can use it to unbrick my Razer Phone 2. Thanks.

Possible solution

Hey, I also have a bricked RP2. I'm getting in touch with a friend of mine who also has one to see if his is rooted. If it works out, I'll post the files for you. Thanks for the link.

I honestly just sold off my RP2 for parts awhile ago and just used the money to buy a cheap flagship. I hope this method does work for you though.

I'm still in the same situation Generic123 was in. I'd really appreciate those files, if you can share, Tburn420. I'm back on an older spare phone until I get this RP2 fixed. I'm sure it'll help others too.

I have clean partition files, but rp2 don't have /dev/block/mmcblk0 (is used to sdcard) but he have other name sda, sde, etc.
I tried use theses files to revive my other rp2 (i have two rp2) but this method doesn't work
If someone have method to revive with sda, sde partitions, share please
