Should have been simple. DOne hundreRAB and never ran into any issues with them. All my firmware is god- it has been used countless times before.

Phone: Motorola V3M (Verizon Branded) ESN phone, no MEID on this one
Software: Trying both RSD Lite and PSt Multi-Flex-Flash

Usually, I can flash out of Verizon with a simple monster pack, load afew settings, and whola. Not on this bich---

Originally used a Generic V3M flash- it failed at about 90%. Tried a few times and still no go. Each time it fails, I do disconnect cable, pull battery, and put back in bootloader.

Then, my bright *** decided to try a Alltell V3M flash- no dice. Made it to 99% multiple times, but will not stick. Hell, might as well ty to flash back to stock verizon V3M flash- nope. failed multiple times.

Then, just maybe it needed a special-binary-flash for the Verizon V3M that was posted by a meraber over at mobile - files. Even worse- after flashing bootloader, scrren goes white and it fails.

Tried Alltell, Verizon again, no dice.

So, is there any idea of what I am doing wrong here. Phone bricked? dam. any clues please from the experts.

And of couse, as always, I am more than willing to paypal for advice. Done countless Razrs, never had a bigger problem than a 2-3 flash process.
 
as per my post, the factory sticker has a ESN. No meid on this one. tries it at least 20 times now, cannot get any farther than a failed flash. tried no less than 10 different flash files.
 
im thinking its done. finally got a flash to stick- verizon special flash- and now the dang phone only powers up the keypad. comp can not recognize any usb functions. all related posts say to reflash with a different file, yet comp can no longer connect.

nice- first brickd phonee
 
awwww, popped ur cherry. lols :P thats wierd, if you find out y, post it :)

edit: anyone have a problem with screens going white after a few months? with monsters flashes?
 
not sure if it will help now with the hell that you've put it through, but a good practice for razrs that fail is to turn it on and loet it boot as far as it will go before returning it to bootloader and then reflashing...
 
yeah had a sprint one that bricked and would only turn on the keypad lights now... swapped motherboarRAB and it's in a brand spankin new vzw housing/lcd/everything else now... if you can find a v3m with a cracked lcd or something for cheap it's not to hard to swap the motherboarRAB...
