My wife recently got a fitbit, and we were trying to connect it to her 2013 Moto X. After repeated failures, and attempts to connect the phone to other devices, other devices to the phone, and other phones to the fitbit, I concluded that there was a Bluetooth issue with the Moto X - it can't see other devices, and other devices can't see it either. A factory reset didn't help. The phone was using the stock ROM, never unlocked, never rooted. This was her first Bluetooth device, so we don't really know if Bluetooth ever worked.

With the phone long out of warranty, I decided to unlock the boot loader and flash the stock firmware. After successfully flashing the 'ghost' firmware (downloadable in another thread here, since the official firmware from Motorola's site fails with the stagefright update), Bluetooth still didn't work. At some point, the phone offered to install the stagefright update, which I allowed. After the update the phone rebooted into the boot loader, with a message "fastboot reason: invalid cid". The screen also indicates that the bootloader is now locked.

At this point, I can't get it to boot to any other screen. Fastboot devices can see the phone, though the device ID is now different than it was before flashing (is this normal?), but I can't do anything with it because it's locked. Fastboot oem get_unlock_data fails, as does fastboot oem unlock .

Am I screwed?
