Well do not think that this thread is one among others. It's my experience when i messed up with my Razri. I wish I had this before, so I'm sharing it with you !

Every has his experience and a way to do it, so this is mine

First I searched everywhere, as you already did, the technique is globally the same but one important thing was missing and I had to get my Razri ON, it's an "Intel" !
I tried this app to install the needed drivers and to flash firmware, and I tried also this

Just let me explain what i had before the "softbrick" just to assure you that your Razri is not dead and it's up to you to bring it up from the dead and you can do that

I softbricked it by rooting my JB android with ICS, I messed up, in you case might be different but you are here cause we all had the same problem

Well, if your Razri Motorola XT890 cannot boot (or keeps rebooting with no end), charging the battery is [im]possible. Below is a quick how-to

RSD Lite detects the Razri as a "MEDFIELD" device. You can use RSD Lite to flash your phone whith a new Android Image [JB here, for "JB 4.1.2" I choose "CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBRTEU.xml.zip"] but this is doable only after getting to the fastboot menu

1. Install EXE drivers for the "MEDFIELD" device
2. Run BAT file and follow the instructions inside
3. You might restart you Razri

You need to use the wright ifwi & dnx file, so I included those for JB (and not for ICS and if you did you will get "Service code corrupt" error but don't worry you have just to get the good version of ifwi&dnx for your android version)

Just to say, for everyone who has this trouble, and thinks that his Razri is dead, good new It is not, but remember that to make this work that fastboot menu is in there, somewhere just use the right combination, no matter what you have on the screen (Bootloader Unlocked screen or nothing at all just a black screen)

This is a little How-To:

Power botton+Volume Down botton at the same time
Wait until the screen flashes or the green led light to flash the immediately release the Power button while keeping the Volume down pushed (do not release ever) until the fastboot menu appears

Good Luck

If you've tried to root your JB Motorola RAZR I with the ICS root-method don't worry. The ICS-root-method flash a unsave boot image, which is for the ICS firmware. That's why the RAZR with JB have problems to boot.
To make everything working again, you need:
- RAZR I PC driver
- fastboot (PC program)
- the right boot image for your JB version. (e.g. retail.EU) (download the right version from firmware-thread and search for a file "boot.img" )

If you have everything prepared do the following things:
- start your RAZR I (make sure, that it doesn't boot into bootloop)
- connect your RAZR I to your PC
- on PC start a command line/terminal and (for windows users) navigate in the directory with the fastboot.exe and make sure that the boot.img file is in the same directory
(Linux users navigate into the directory with the boot.img)
- type: fastboot flash boot boot.img
- wait until it's done
- reboot the device by typing: fastboot reboot

And that's it. Your personal data won't be touched, everything is like it was before.

Try this

Hi

It's probably beacause tou updated your Formware with the wrong version, try this out:

You need to use the wright ifwi & dnx file, so I included those for JB (and not for ICS and if you did you will get "Service code corrupt" error but don't worry you have just to get the good version of ifwi&dnx for your android version) ==> You can get it from de XML file form sbf.droid-developers.org/smi/list.php it depends in which android version you were befor, in my case i took "CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBRTEU.xml.zip"
So you have to Unzip it and there you'll find the ifwi & dnx files

Check this for your problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2134391

You must use the boot.img for you Android version (boot.img isn't the same for ICS, JB or GB)
