I don't normally comment on videos but I just want to express how thankful I am for this video. You saved my phone and saved me time from going to get my phone repaired. I was frantically searching for ways to recover my phone from being partially bricked and I'm so grateful to have stumbled across this. THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH!!!!!
2022 makes it seem like most of the info about these processes are long hidden away by censorship or abandonment. Thanks to this video, I'm reliving the nostalgia of a fun time in technology history.
Thank you! This worked great for my friend's Moto G4 2016 Amazon edition that we previously removed ads on with the the oem.img. He was tired of getting an update notification and now he doesnt even care about the ads because they're less annoying than the update notification.
hi i am getting permission denied in every step and my bootloader is locked and when is type oem unlock then it says go to android settting and check oem unlock toggle what should i do now
so I hail from the future of 2020......... seriously though, this was the ONLY method that unbricked my phone, a Moto G7, now I can get back to rooting.......... I have a fail-safe now thanks, man, thanks a lot
thank you man, today is 21st Oct 2023 and you just saved my monthly savings. I almost bricked my phone, and your tutorial along with many tutorials helped me to restore it. I have Moto G5s Plus and I don't want to spend on the phone just to change the OS version. To do the customized ROM my phone stuck in bootloop. I found the flash files of stock ROM but I don't know how to do the things. Thank you again Love and respect from Pakistan
Lol I was freaking out because the Lenovo Moto Smart Assistant wasn't working and since I knew a bit about fastboot and adb commands, I thought I'd lookup a more "manual" solution and here I am with the best solution! This inspired me to create scripts for those on XDA who may want it. So just in case someone starts seeing some "automated packages" on XDA threads, it might just be me lol
Hi bro! The "Flash & Backup v3.0.7" program, the old Motorola Utility; NOT compatible with Windows 10? It installs well and starts well, but when I connect a Motorola dew the old "MOTOROLA RAZR2 V9m" for example, it keeps thinking and the Flash & Backup v3.0.7 image freezes, I must forcefully close it .... -.-
Hey man, I just wanted to say thank you for documenting this process! Really and truly, you really helped me out a lot! Some things are different for my phone model (Moto G Power 2020), but I didn't have any problems getting things sorted out and fixed. I really appreciate your help and this video! :)
HELP! I have a motorola moto G4 xt1625, amazon prime version. I made the mistake of trying to update it to Android 8.1 through an official firmware with that version of Android, which did not turn out to be compatible and now the phone got stuck at startup, I have already tried to flash several official firmwares for that model to Leave it as it was, but none has worked, still stuck at boot. HELP!
Didn't work for me, can't get my Moto G power to boot. I was able to successfully write all of the files, but it's stuck in an infinite reboot loop now. Recovery mode shows "No Command".
i have the moto e4 and made the .bat out of the servicefile.xml, phone is stuck on the blue screen with the "'M' powered by android" logo screen before going to that screen it displays a black screen with "bad key" in the top left corner. ran the .bat for flashfile and noticed while running that while writing "boot" it responded with "(bootloader) image signed with bad key" but still came back with "OKAY" on the next line. the flashfile.bat worked completely and unbricked my phone. THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!!
Would this work putting say LineageOS on a Motorola G7 Power phone? I'm running into issues trying to flash using their instructions -No boot_b. It was a Cricket phone and I did their unlocking. But other guides are showing them entering a software unlock strings from Motorola as if I'm missing that step as well. I don't know. It's a pain in the ass!
My phone doesn't show up in RSD Lite when I plug it in, but the USB Driver shows up in Device Manager, and the phone says "Transfer Mode: USB Connected".
Any idea what I can do if RSD lite says: "the phone failed to switch to fastboot mode" although the phone is connected and already in "Fastboot Flash Mode"???
Thanks for the video mate. However, when I try your method, it says (bootloader) flash permission denied and on the next line (FAILED) remote failure. Any ideas on how to deal with this? I have a bricked Moto XT2125-4 that I'm looking to resurrect.
@@Rootjunkycom No, I was flashing the firmware it last had before I borked it. Will try again tomorrow with the latest firmware. The fastboot screen is saying flashing locked and I had accidentally locked the bootloader with a non-stock ROM loaded (with the oem unlock toggle switched off as well I think) so not sure if your method will brute force past all these hurdles.
have you solved it ? I have the same problem with my moto device, I also locked my bootloader with a non-stock ROM loaded and along with oem unlock switched off
Is it common to have to run this more than once for it to work? I've tried twice so far, and it's still stuck on the boot screen. Many thanks! BTW, I've never done anything like this before and your video made it super easy.
if you flash the right firmware you should only have to flash it once. If still on bootloader screen use the volume buttons to scroll to reboot and power to select it.
Thks for showing how to create a flash file for the G5 Plus, but unfortunately for me it does not work. The computer etc sees the phone, I can send the command, but get back a whole wack of "(bootloader) permission denied" and "(bootloader) flash permission denied". This phone had stock ROM, the bootloader was unlocked to allow root/flashing to Android 10, but that was never done. So Bootloader was relocked. Now getting "operating system has changed" (did not touch it), so figured re-flash it using your method HELP please
great tutorial it was a great help but i believe i may have done something on my end everything i wrote as the .img etc. were stating that there was no such file even though i did everything as shown as well as everything stating no such file or directory...would you please explain what i may have done wrong
I need help 😢 few days ago i flashed a older version firmware to my phone then locked the bootloader now it showing "No valid operating system could be found the device will not boot" 😢 what should I do....
So how is this supposed to work for the Motorola Droid RAZR M xml file? Cause I was following these steps and the whole thing was completely different than what was shown in the video. This might be a dumb question cause I have a hard time understanding these things.
hi, i have note 4 sm-n910c i m not getting any ota update. i tried to install manually update through kies3 & smart switch its says "sm-n910c" does not support initializing kies(after entering serial number). pls help....
I was able to update the replacement 2018 Moto Z2 Force I bought to PCX29.159-21-3 since for some reason the phone itself, the verizon software, nor the Lenovo software could make it past putting the phone into Fastboot to actually update it. Big thanks =)
Followed this exactly for my Moto E (2015) and after reboot and got the bootloader unlocked warning, got a screen with an Android mascot that says "No command." Not sure what to make of that.
Code: I followed the guide but I was getting an error formatting system erasing 'system'... (bootloader) Permission denied After some digging I found a somewhat related post suggesting using "fastboot -u" for commands involving system as the files would just overwrite even though formatting of the partition was denied. I hope this helps anyone else getting errors while following this guide.
Sir My phone bootloader is locked and I have not turned on my oem unlock option in developer option. Now my device is having a bootloop issue and could not flash. I have tried this one but no use. Could you help me in any way
Best Video man. It Worked. Some of the context are bit different. But As u say, I did that, and it Worked, with no Problem. Thanks MAN. The Video Should have more than 5k likes , im bit dissapoint.
Buddy, I have moto g5 plus... i used all the steps in the same way as directed. The ROM was flashed smoothly but then it stopped showing the network. I mean it does not show any network, though it reads the sim, it does not show any network even when i manually search for it. Please Help.
i installed purenexus rom in XT1068 after installation it was not gud then i decided to change rom when enter into recovery it shows error "boot up failed"? how to fix this error ? help me
so if I'm trying to downgrade 5.1 to 4.2.2 using RSDlite it won't work right. is there any other way to unlock moto x 213 bootloader? motorola website doesn't allow it!!! what is wrong with them it is developer edition
I have a problem sir my Moto z with the no sound on call voice call and media but ring alarm handfree Bluetooth work perfectly any solution you have this
let me update my adb and fastboot files on my server and give you a link hang on rootjunkysdl.com/files/?dir=Adb%20Fastboot%20Files the file you need is included here
Thanks for all the tutorial video! btw, I used your "XT1625-Amazon-Bloat-Ads-Remover-Without-RSDLITE.zip" works fine in Windows 10. But since Amazon disable ads free for me from my email request. I want to restore original to ensure update. I used "XT1625-Restore-Amazon-Bloat-Ads.zip" but it failed i.imgur.com/QQ6B2hV.png . Would you give me an advise. Bootloader is locked. Thanks!
I have a problem with wifi and Bluetooth of my moto z droid, I want to install factory firmware and I have locked bootloader and Motorola's official website saying " Your device not qualify for unlock" so I can't unlock my boot loader hope you understand?
Fastboot not recognized as internal/external command, program or batch file. I make the service bat file inside the folder of the official ROM of Moto G3, & put every files you show in the video... Please help me!
HOW in the HECK are you able to get a result from "adb devices -l" whilst in the bootloader?!!?!? I've only ever gotten fastboot commands to work, no adb unless I can get into a recovery...very curious as to how you are able to do that
Hey. I have a Moto G Power XT2041-4 (Sofia) and I followed your very clear instructions, but RSD Lite does not see my device which is connected in bootloader mode, even though I tried all your tricks. Is RSD Lite incompatible with my device? I'm trying to downgrade from Android 11 to 10. Hope you reply. Thanks
@@Rootjunkycom I apologize, because I thought the script would be in your TH-cam notes. I wouldn't even be bothering you with this, but the XDA dev, who build the Havoc ROM I want to use, stated that I have to downgrade my XT2041-4 from Android 11 to 10 to flash Havoc, and suggested that I use Vache's Moto Flash Tool, but I can't find instructions anywhere. So, I followed your script suggestions in the video, but it errors out. The problem maybe related to the age of your script tutorial in the video. Also, apparently, I can't attach any file to this reply. So, I would appreciate it if I can email you my script and the firmware file for your perusal? BTW, the Moto Rescue/Smart Assistant won't downgrade. Thanks
and the RSD just gimme error reading the xml file, but its correct and im not missing any img file, tried with 3 or 4 firmwares and gimme the same error
I have a question ...My moto x pure is stuck on the bootloader unlocked screen and I never got to activate USB debugging in the settings of the phone so in the terminal window when I type in adb devices it doesn't show up .. what can I do so the computer reads the phone ?
Either download the drivers and install them manually or you can use a macbook because you don't need to get the drivers. Hope this helps. If you need anything else just ask.
This did NOT work for me...essentially all we did was manually create an xml....that still doesn't help me being bootloader blocked and unable to boot. I followed this step by step and it worked great as far as a batch script but every single command failed.
Hi! Followed your tutorial and it worked perfect! Phone is working now. Only problem is it's gone back to carrier locked version by sprint. 😥 I need the phone to be unlocked as need to use it outside the u.s. it's a moto g3 xt1548. Any ideas on how to unlock it?
Hey rootjunky I was watching your"Amazon Blu R1 HD TWRP Recovery and Root Tutorial" and had the problem of the drivers not installing for the phone when pluging it into my windows7 laptop. Do you know where I can find the drivers?
I need to downgrade my Motorola One Macro XT2016-1 mobile to Android 9 and I tried RSD Tool but it's not working, so will it work in my case. By the way the Stock Rom is of Indian variant...

Hey i took the help of one of your earlier videos to flash my Moto G Turbo to its original firmware. I could use RSDlite on my Windows 10 without any problem.
hey rj awesome videos! you got my r1 rooted and as free! I have a issue with a sky device 6.0 I removed the emcc and sky does not support online files to correct issue. can you advise me what to do? I don't want to deal with mailing the phone to Florida. thanks!
Wow, this is the best tutorial I get around the internet for flashing the firmware of Motorola, I tried you method unfortunately not working for me? could you please help?
Dude you are awesome thank you so much. you just taught me so much. Any other tutorials you might have perhaps on rooting a moto e5 plus? You just taught me to re install softwaRE FROM A XML FILE Thank you truly.
After nearly 12 hours of trying to figure this out I finally ran into this video! You're a lifesaver!

Hello brother, this method will serve me for moto razr i XT890 ??

Dude, I love you so much! It worked perfectly!!!
Glad to hear it!
I have a question ...My moto x pure is stuck on the bootloader unlocked screen and I never got to activate USB debugging in the settings of the phone so in the terminal window when I type in adb devices it doesn't show up .. what can I do so the computer reads the phone ?
Either download the drivers and install them manually or you can use a macbook because you don't need to get the drivers. Hope this helps. If you need anything else just ask.
if you are in bootloader mode just hold power and volume down to reboot the device just keep holding them until it reboots
+Rootjunky.com I can get into bootloader mode but I just can't seem to get past the unlocked bootloader screen
+F Lopez is there a way to enable USB debugging through recovery ?
F Lopez sounds like you need to restore the firmware
This did NOT work for me...essentially all we did was manually create an xml....that still doesn't help me being bootloader blocked and unable to boot. I followed this step by step and it worked great as far as a batch script but every single command failed.
you are flashing the wrong firmware or a old firmware
is there anyway to do this with a locked bootloader? i accidentally locked it
Hi! Followed your tutorial and it worked perfect! Phone is working now. Only problem is it's gone back to carrier locked version by sprint. 😥 I need the phone to be unlocked as need to use it outside the u.s. it's a moto g3 xt1548. Any ideas on how to unlock it?
sorry this tool does not unlock the carrier lock

Hey rootjunky I was watching your"Amazon Blu R1 HD TWRP Recovery and Root Tutorial" and had the problem of the drivers not installing for the phone when pluging it into my windows7 laptop. Do you know where I can find the drivers?
never mind, I needed to turn off usb debugging first.
+Connor Turner glad you got it working.
+Rootjunky.com turns out that I plugged in my old tablet instead of my phone, any help?
