Attempted to use the RAZR HD Utility to reset back to 4.1.2 and it failed in the process I think. I rebooted the phone and now it just gets stuck on the Welcome screen. After I press continue on the welcome screen it just goes into an infinite loading of "Please wait this may take a while...". I can access the settings page from it and I know my phone is on System Version 9.30.1.XT926 Verizon en US, I am on android version 4.1.2 but the baseband version is unknown. How do I factory reset this thing or get past the welcome screen? I can access the launcher when using the Volume UP+Down and Power button to get into fastboot and recovery but I am unsure of where to go from here!
To clear anything up, I am currently unable to boot to android. I am stuck in fastboot. I attempt to fastboot the boot.img or system.img and it just hangs on writing to the device. If I attempt to use the Razr HD Utility I get:
Preflash validation failed
FAILED (remote Failure)
When flashing the system.img
When I attempt to use RSD Lite 6.1.5 it hangs on flash boot "boot.img" 15/27
All my md5sums match.
re-download the utility and flash it again. something didnt flash properly, and no reset will will fix it.

So I should delete the utility completely and run option 1 again?

try this utility instead, there is only one option.

Use rsd lite & delete the lines in the xml with getvar.
you have a 926 correct?
that tool re-wrote the partitions, i dont know why it would fail after they were clean. im not sure that else to tell you to try.

One uses the ...xml.zip unzipped btw.
Edit the xml with notepad or almost anything.
You then choose the modded xml from rsd lite(...) button.

I have the Razr Maxx HD. None of these are what I am looking for.
I think http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=5 is what I am looking for but I am unsure of which one to get.
it tells you to go to that ppage for the 926 if you read to the bottom.
you want the last file.

which would be the last file on that page, like i said.
I have done everything correctly and when I use RSD lite v6.1.5 everything goes smoothly but it hangs or doesn't seem to progress past 15/27 flash boot "boot.img"
It seems that it doesn't want to write the boot.img to the phone.
I think I have narrowed it down to maybe a corrupt /system because it refuses to write or erase it from fastboot.
i wish i could help you but im not sure what else to tell you to try.
the only time i have seen the partition script i gave you not fix the problem is when twrp screwed up the partitions beyond repair.

Hey guys,
I recently flashed HAVOC OS on my 1+7 Pro.
I got to TWRP by using the boot command, however now I cannot boot to TWRP. When using the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I get the following error:
Code:
sending 'recovery' (31440 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.697s]
writing 'recovery'...
FAILED (remote: (recovery_b) No such partition)
finished. total time: 0.733s
Then when I try:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
I get the following error:
Code:
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.698s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.728s
Is anyone able to help?
Why not try installing TWRP via magisk?? Its easier that way
/\ agree /\

Make sure you are using the latest TWRP img.
Never flash recovery. Always boot recovery and then install TWRP zip. Have you not read the instructions?
As others mentioned, easier way to recover TWRP is to flash a magisk patch boot.img and flash TWRP zip in magisk.
Thanks for the tips guys, all sorted!
I'm trying to flash TWRP on my Pixel 3. I have bootloader unlocked and made sure several times all my settings were correct. Any help on if this could be caused by missing drivers or something? i'm new to custom ROMs. Thanks
