WARNING - Avoiding Bricked Phones + RSD Lite Tutorial

[peter971215]

I have not seen those messages before, I cannot figure out how you got them.

Did you install any modifications at all in the few days after your unlocked the bootloader? If you only unlocked the bootloader and rooted, there should be no problem. Since there is a bootloop problem, there must be a conflict. If you have made any more modifications it will likely be them. I would have said try RSD Lite but if that didn't do anything...p.s. do you have a nandroid backup? Did you flash a recovery? Can you get into recovery?

Hi (ciao!)

I don't know why a simple OTA update would break the radio on your phone....I have done this for years and it never happened to me. Were you on stock ROM before the OTA update?

I would consider flashing to stock ROM if you have problems with these other ROMs.

Downgrading to ICS...Personally I don't recommend it. Some users here successfully do this but there I think you need to be careful doing it. I am new to Motorola phones and have been told many times that there is a service check in the phone from Motorola that prevents normal downgrading. I know some users have experimented with 'fastboot' images of this. I would strong suggest that you ask for the best method of doing this with guys there. Many people have bricked their RAZR i through downgrading to ICS. If you would like to discuss that downgrade, the thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1936512

I just noticed that that homemade fastboot image, including for downgrading to ICS has been retired...

Downgrading from jelly bean to ics is not recommended and source of roms is sbf.droid-developers.org/smi/list.php, but information which rom is which version of android is nowhere to be found. I'm aware that CFC_9.8.2I-50 is probably 4.1.2, but I'm interested in information what each rom filename indicate. Can someone give some guide how motorola roms are named please?

RSD Lite 8.1 works on Windows 64-bit?

I used Windows 8 and have used RSD llite to update the system, but I ended up upgrading to Windows 8.1 and would like to know if it works without installing Firmware errors? My Windows 8.1 is 64-bit

Can we add to make sure you're using a usb 2.0 port, not a hub connected to a 3 either.

That's what caused my week of misery.

I've got the same problem, so I unlocked the bootloader then, I flashed a full stock JB ROM by RSD and it was fixed

Are you sure there's a AT&T ROM for the RAZR I??
You maybe have the RAZR M
