Q stuck in bootloader mode

[4MUSKRAT]

I have a moto Q I am tryin to flash. Not sure what happen as I flashed a Q9c right before this and it worked fine. But I got it all goin and was doin ok till the end and it failed and now I can't get it out of bootloader mode. Can any1 tell me how to get the out of bootloader mode so I can flash this phone?

What version of RSD Lite are you using? With my experience I have to use a lower version such as 4.3 or 4.1 to flash Moto Q's successfully, you can also try to flash it with the Alltel Upgrade to at least get it out of bootloader.

just relfash the monster on there and it should fix it. I use RSD lite 3.4, lately i've had alot of faliing Q's too not sure what the deal is, never had the problem before.

I got it. I was using rsd lite 4.5.5 and down graded to 4.0 and it worked. Kinda weird I had to downgrade but it worked. thx for the input

[cricketmodder]

Yeah Q's are screwy sometimes I keep both copy's handy just in case

You could have also used the same version of RSD Lite that you were using and put the alltell customer upgrade file and then verizon monster file that should have taken care of it

Skip the RSD altogether on that one. Get the update at this link:

When they ask for a warranty date just give them one that is less than a year. Download the Verizon one, unzip it and install it. Then plug your phone in and run it. Takes about fifteen minutes. And you have a phone that works.

You should be able to get every one of those out of bootloader mode using the utility provided there. It works for me everytime.

Try this one. I just googled "motorola q update" and it was the first link. It works everytime. I found this solution on the old M-F.

And Whitey, my links aren't bad. They just don't work. hehehe

make sure it's the MSU_Standalone, disable internet connection if it tries to update to MSU, if battery dies in mid-flash it will fail so use a full battery

[meanngreen04]

Check the error. On the phone screen you'll see an error. I've had some unrecoverable ones that say BP failure.

[PeteKT]

Thanks guys, wish there was a way to rtepair these

I have a Moto Q with this issue explained here, but the solutions don't seem to work for me. I have tried flashing with the Alltel monster file, Verizon monster file and even tried the MSU solution here but to no avail. Please help, anyone. It's always the BP failure error. Is it possible to flash only the BP? If so, where can one get the file?
Thanks.
