ok so i was using Liberty rom on my rooted droid 2 and decided to sbf it so and now im in bootloop. ive tryed to sbf it again, but nothing. i took it to verizon because my battery died and the dude took my phone and decided he would try and flash it but now in when the phones in flash mode it says its got bootloader 2.7. and before when i flashed it it said 2.3.2. so dones any one know how to fix it and anyone heard of 2.7 or did he think i had a droid 2 global or something?
Moved to general
ok its not 2.7, its 2.37
Can you get into recovery by holding x while turning the phone on? If you can, try wiping data/cache

After you get the triangle exclamation driod press the search (magnifying glass) on the keyboard to bring up the menu then use the volume keys to scroll and the camera button on the side to select. Wipe data and cache and you should be fine.
You won't be able to get into clockwork after an sbf until you re-root and re-bootstrap.

I downloaded maderstcok 340 and updated. I then did a factory reset and re-rooted using z4. I then tried to download the gummyjar rom using rom manager. My droid x is now stuck,on boot up,the pic of flashing 4 android figures and saying gummyjar
I suppose I need to flash back but dont k now how and need to flash from the .340
Can anyone give me detailed instructions on how to fix my X and how to flash
Try booting into moto recovery (hold down the menu button along with the power button, when the picture of the green android guy comes up, push the search button)
Do another wipe data/factory reset and reboot. If that doesnt work then you will need to sbf

Unless this guy ^^^^ works for Verizon or Moto and is holding out on the rest of the Android community... anyone can get access to the files to unbrick your phone. Check out mydroidworld for the 2.3.32 full sbf and the 2.3.34 system only sbf. If you need more help with sbf files, post back, and myself, or one of many other people are likely to help you out.
PS... to smeyers1012...unless you have "Secret files" please just offer the help in the forum... it makes it easier for everyone =) Thank you

If I'm reading this correctly ??
After reloading the Market programs, if you want to stick with the full "Maderstcok SBF".
You must do a full reboot BEFORE Rooting, Rom's, breathing, Or anything else.
IMHO kick the Rom manager to the side of the road , Again IMHO.
Then do what you wish.
When I use Maderstcok's SBF I bypass the market downloads so that I can then
get to the new Rom i,m really trying to get to.
Maderstcok SBf, full reboot, Root, Rom
Wouldn't it be the home key and power, not the menu one?

So I tried to SBF back to 2.3.340 like I done before and now I get stocked on the red M logo. When I try to go into recovery I only get to the exclamation point and pressing the search button doesn't do anything!!
What can I do?
Help please. I don't see an answer on the forums
Thanks
UPDATE: I had the system-only SBF. Found the SBF full and it worked.
Now try to figure how to install the zip files because my phone is not letting me

Hey,
Is it even out? I don't see it online
EDIT: I think I found the full SBF. I'll try it. Thanks
UPDATE: bigshotrob22 you are awesome!! Thank you it worked!!! Now I have to cancel my order for the replacement LOL
That happened to me. I SBF'd back to .340 and still had the Red M logo from the Gingerbread .595.
I was unable to get into recovery at all. I eneded up not having the phone for the day and did the SBF again when I got home, you can still access the bootloader, just not recovery (or atleast I was able to) to do the SBF back to .340.
You said you have done the SBF before..my issue with was I did not go into the factory recovery FIRST and wipe all data. I have since done three SBF's and wipe data (in stock recovery, not BOOT STRAP) first. I wiped data, DID NOT REBOOT device. Powered off, and went straight into the bootloader to SBF.
That seems to work for me now.
If it is the samething that happened to me...the wipe did not completely do its job. I make it a habit to wipe 3-4 times before doing anything.
try pushing the volume button up& down at the same time instead of search

I think i bricked my Droid X. i was running Rubix Focused and tryed to flash GingerAle 3.0 and now it just sits at the moto "M" logo. i can get into the recovery by pulling the battery but even after a wipe and a recovery it still just sits. did i brick it, and if so how can i fix it? please help, reletivly new to flashing roms.
P.S. I'll love you forever if i can fix it =)
now i think i really did it. I tried running a recovery image from a few days ago and now i cant get back into the recovery menu...
Sounds Like SBF Time
Sounds like SBF is going to be your friend here, if you don't know how, head to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11118819&postcount=2
and look for "SBF: What is it, and what does it do?!?"
OK, so i SBFed the phone, got all the way through it, got to the phone is rebooting and it just sits at the Moto "M" again. did i SBF wrong or what?
EDIT: I can get into the stock recovery... sort of. i can get to the ! with the droid next to it but nothing happens when i push the search button.
hmm, I know GB doesnt use the search button to pass that, try using vol UP+DOWN at the same time. perhaps the stock recovery isn't modified from SBF?
Woot that worked. got into recovery. wiped data and tryed a reboot, got stuck at logo again. should i try flashing back to the Rubix focused i had before?
Edit: it now boots into <3e> recovery and i get the e: signature verification failed instillation aborted when i try to install Rubix or Gingerale.
You can't install a custom roms from stock recovery

Hey guys I need some help here. I just rooted my droid x and installed the koush recovery as stated in the noobs guide to the droid x. i was able to boot into recovery and clear my data and cache and I installed Gingerale 3.0.
Well I cant get wifi tethering to work so I need to install a WUG's patch. Problem is, I cant seem to boot into koush's recovery anymore. I installed it again on the new rom and tapped bootstrap recovery and it said success. Then I tapped reboot recovery and my phone rebooted. The M came up then all I get is black screen with the backlight on. I have waited 15 minutes and same thing. I have to pull the battery and reboot. I can not for the life of me figure out why I cannot boot into clockwork.
I could use some help. Thanks.

Try downloading ROM Manager from the Market. Once you open it up click Flash Recovery and select Droid X. Now try to boot into recovery from ROM Manager.
Thanks for the reply. I have done as you said and still no dice. The phone reboots, the M comes up then screen goes black with the backlight on and thats it. Any other ideas?

You might have to sbf.
I had the same problem. I installed the droid 2 recovery and got out back finally....

I dont have a problem sbfing but I would hate to do that if its just going to happen again. A quick search on this forums brings up tons of results of people having the same issue and i have not been able to find a solution for it.
Any ideas?
Have you tried stock recovery? And you have d2 bootatrapper?

Hey guys.
Sooooo sorry if i am missing something obvious.. Im trying to do a backup after a fresh rooted .605 from Tom Tools thread.
Rooted fine. (see superuser)
Downloaded Rom Manager
Clicked Flash Clockworkmod Recovery
Chose Droid X
Said it did
Reboot into recovery just boots back to the OS.
Is there something between here and there I need to do?
just downloaded bootstrapper for droidx....now it boots to a black screen.

You must use Droid 2 Bootatrapper instead of the Droid X version.

ok thanks. got that , got into recovery... now the camera button doesnt (or any other button) select an option. i can just toggle up and down using vol keys
looks like my camera button is broken and I just called to find out my warranty expires in 6 days! I'm not usually a lucky person so that is pretty lucky for me
Will revisit this with the new phone
ok so this might have to be a new thread but.
I unrooted since it will be going back on Monday.
I need to get rid of SU and from what i read i have to sbf or use maderstcok - OTA 2.3.340 update.zip
Both guides NEED the camera button......
Is there another way?

You shouldn't need the camera button to SBF.

If on Gingerbread, holding both volume keys and pressing the power button gets you into bootloader mode. I believe it's different if you're on Froyo.
