If the moto logo screen does not show up and you can't get into rsd/fastboot, you are pretty screwed. From what I have read, you might be able to get into nvflash by plugging in the usb cable while it is shutoff. I am not sure how nvflash works though.
if you retain the fastboot, what you neetd to flash is the bl. the rest of the stuiff is find, 0x1000 is the adress for bl in memory
So in theory, since I've never unlocked with pudding I could update then sbf back if need be?
Already tried it. It got me a USB APX driver suitable for nvflash but without the SBK key (more encryption) you can't do anything. No RSD or fastboot mode.while my method will *probably* not work
i have just returned from walmart with a soldering iron and some cheapo micro-usb chargers
i am going to start working on making a Factory Cable that will allow me to access the phone from a computer WITHOUT the battery.
if i can get this to work, we'll never have to worry about hard-bricking again, just obtaining factory cables
wish me luck
Here are ones that I have. These are from the 1.8.3 sbf. You can flash these directly with fastboot, do not have to change the .smg extension.
i didn't unlock the bl..
Just flash a boot.img and system.img with fastboot. It does the same thing as an sbf. Your phone just needs a boot and system image to run.
And where would one go to find these files. There is a firmware thread with a collection of sbfs. Can these files be extracted from there (i tried with 7zip, did not work).
You can do that with android depacker. You should know which cgs go to what partition before messing around with this. NFHimself has an awesome thread on how to do it.
I think that means your BL is not unlocked. You have to unlock your bootloader in order to flash any img through fastboot. I'm in the same boat as you.
