So u need to get hold of gpt and tz from German 4.4.2 if I am not mistaking
Hi,
So.. As I said before - I have the same, but the working XT925. I downgrade it to 4.1.2 (via RSD with the removal of three lines from xml), then downloaded the OTA 4.4.2 (98.22.1601002.XT925.O2.en.DE) and copied it from the folder "root\cache" to PC. Then unrar the zip and extract gpt and tz. Now these files accurately from a firmware that was until the phone briked.
But again the same error:
Code:
>fastboot oem fb_mode_clear
...
OKAY [  0.025s]
finished. total time: 0.026s

>fastboot flash partition gpt.bin
(bootloader) Variable not supported!

writing 'partition'...

And at the phone inscription:

Somebody or if you have a second xt925,must be on 4.1.2 and catch OTA.
Well, I already caught OTA 4.4.2 and test it today.

Forgive me for my terrible English. Maybe I did not explain properly what I'm doing.

Worth trying one from 4.4 2
Make sure mfastboot is the latest, and if possible Uninstall MoTo drivers, reboot, reinstall in case they are somehow corrupted.

1) Where can I find it?

2) Where can I download latest "mfastboot"?

3) And more. If I use a moto-fastboot, then:
C:\root\9.8.2Q-8-XT925_VQUL-1601_USERSIGNED_S7_USAVANQUO2DE02C.0R_LSAVNQJBO2DE_P014_A004_CFC.xml>moto-fastboot flash system system_signed

Here's a quick summary for you non spanish readers! :p

So it seems that during the OTA the upgrade failed and due to this my bootloader appeared as LOCKED. So this meant that I had to treat my RAZR HD as locked, and flash a newer full version.

So I downloaded the latest Retail BR as suggested by juanpa123, thanks again man!

With the latest retail BR zip and RSD Lite 6.1.4 at hand I removed the "getvar" line from the XML, flashed and boom! Retail version flashed without issues! :victory:

Also once restored I went back into fastboot and my bootloader is again showing up as UNLOCKED. I already reflashed CWM through fastboot just fine! ;)
What 'getvar' line, can you be a bit more specific please?

I'm using XT 1068 Moto G but the problem I have seems similar.

And so... still nothing worked.
I tried to flash MSM8960_bootloader_singleimage.bin from BlankFlash:
C:\blankflash>moto-fastboot flash motoboot MSM8960_bootloader_singleimage.bin
sending 'motoboot' (1923 KB)... OKAY [ 0.249s]
writing 'motoboot'... OKAY [ 0.033s]


But then nothing happened:
C:\root\XT925_rcica-user-4.4.2-KDA20.117-3-4-release-keys-cid14-RCI-CA.xml>moto-fastboot flash system system.img
sending 'system' (262144 KB)... OKAY [ 26.804s]
writing 'system'... INFO Protocol error (multiflash unexpected)
FAILED (remote failure)


Please help me. I do not know where to dig. Thanks in advance.
