For me it is lol. I've been trying to unbrick for 2 days already and its frustrating idk wth im doing wrong. Im doing all the steps correctly but all I get is a "File Extract Error" during the end process... sigh

I'm pretty sure that's not the end process, unbricking is a 15-45 minute process.
Try another PC is what I'm thinking as well.
 
Notice - One Click Roots , Programs , ETC are hard to run on Windows 8 , Devoloper,Consumer,Reviewer Preview and Windows 8 Normal and PRO , Its impossible , You must run in Administrator mode , and "Run as admin" Then it will work , Same logic for some Windows Vista , And Windows 7 Computers , Windows XP might need to!

well your first problem is Windows 8...

you shouldn't have upgraded....it's a P.O.S.
 
It bricked, but then I got to school today and just unbricked it with this tutorial. Takes about 15 minutes and it does not reset your phone you keep everything even all my games. So this is the un-do method to this.

they didn't...that's the thing...

someone randomly posted that the 4X recovery is done..

which is true...the 4X recovery is done....but our recovery is not..

so people went and downloaded the 4X recovery and tried to flash it...

and since it is for the 4X and not the Motion...it bricked their device(s)

It uses a quadcore processor, but the software is similar, the way the recovery system works for the 4X it could work for our phone as well, i am actually gonna start on working on a process for us based on the 4X solution.

wait until you hear from this guy or someone who has been working on the recovery for the motion..

this guy and PG, i think, are the ones working on it...

do not download and flash a recovery for a different phone...NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE ELSE SAYS...

IF YOU FLASH A RECOVERY FROM A DIFFERENT PHONE YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE...AND IT'LL BE YOUR OWN FAULT

Thanks for removing the link, I was about to do it, obviously it wasnt my intention for anyone to flash the 4X recovery into this phone, I guess it wasnt made clear enough I was working on one for the Motion and assumed people would have known not to flash the 4X recovery onto this phone without it being ported. I am working on getting it ported most of the day today, hopefully will have it solved tonight.

Question: if you get to port that recovery to the motion would it just work out of the box or we gonna need to unlock the bootloader to get it to work thankd
