I had horrible times with the leaks, and OTA, couldnt get a stable, smooth running version of GB on my DX. Do you think SBF'ing it should cure the cause?

Well it's not a second rate leak , or OTA update that will cause problems, or beta or some crud like that. This is the software newer phones will be shipping with.

SBF
From my experience with Froyo custom roms and sbf, sbf is the only way to truly return everything back to like out of the box condition. Just don't forget to wipe at the first boot.
If this is truly gingerbread sbf, you will lose root until there is a post root method for gingerbread.

This SBF is still unrootable however, use with caution

This is cool but useless right now. With the inability to root GB you would have to flash the other GB rooted files anyway. So right now it's best to just stick with the froyo SBF file and flash the two GB files and you have root.

Thank you sir!

This is probably a dumb question, but would you just delete the last 2 letter (.gz) extension to make it an "sbf" file? That's what I did and it seems like it worked, but I just wanted to confirm.

.gz is a compression format extension. You have to unpack(extract) the SBF file from the archive using your favorite decompression utility.

How about the rooted 2 part .596 turned into an SBF? I need this.

AFAIK, the only people who can make SBF's are Motorola. That's why it's a leak, not something that somebody created. So, it's very unlikely we'll see an SBF with root pre-installed.

Thanks! 2 questions:
1) Will this update my baseband or is it system only? If it's a full SBF, any chance of giving us foreign users on different carriers a system only file?
2) Will the DroidX bootloader work on this version of Ginger (once we get it rooted)? Or should we use the Droid2 bootloader? The reason i ask is that if the answer to question 1 is it's a bootloader, I can overwrite my baseband with the DX Bootloader, but not with the D2 bootloader.
Thanks for the answer.

i'm running a rooted 2.3.3 system version 4.5.573 and for the last week or so it's been incredibly slow. i realize there are a few updates since then and would like a fresh start either with one of the updates or using this file.
i'm trying to follow the instructions here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11118819&postcount=2) but still am not clear on what to do since there's multiple instructions.
what should i do?
thanks!

Good to have, thanks for posting.

Very true. Although they are rare Motorola does make SBF's that are pre-rooted (they are called user debug builds) but they rarely go public.

2.3.23 Full SBF on MDW Now

http://www.mydroidworld.com/forums/droid-x-discussion/5633-droid-x-2-3-32-full-sbf.html
I've not flashed it, but the links are currently working.
There's An App For That
For those of you who don't make it in time to get the SBF before it's taken down, don't worry. If you have the TBH app, you are good to go. Not only do they have the 2.3.32 update, but also the 2.3.32 SBF in case you wish to go back. Thank God for TBH. Way to go guys - don't know what I'd do without you.
Enjoy everyone! You're welcome.
We normally discourage openly posting the content from the TBH app but this is an exception in order to make this file available to anyone who might need it.
Thank you for posting links back to MDW and promoting the use of the TBH app.
Good luck and happy droiding!
does anyone have the 2.3.23 update.zip, all the links are dead on MDW. i got the new 2.3.23 sbf file but need the update.zip so I can get onto 2.3.23
I need that zip too. I was able to sbf to 2.3.32 but the bootloader version stays on 30.01.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
email me if you need the update file, i think it was pulled
You can also get it from the TBH app, with the nice upside of supporting TBH
Does the tbh app have the full. 320 sbf available?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
yep

z4 worked for me after i flashed the sbf if it helps anyone.

just flash the sbf without updating, worked like a charm coming from my bricked DX.
remember to pull the battery after you update when the droid x animation begins to boot loop. then hold the home button when booting up again, then data/factory reset from the recovery and select reboot system now.
z4root works, confirmed. just installed Fission 2.3 just minutes from sbf'ing 2.3.23.
It's important to remember that flashing the SBF will not update the bootloader whereas the update.zip will update to 30.04 but will not update the baseband.
That is the primary difference as well as the update.zip being rooted and deodexed with busybox installed.

what baseband? there is a baseband update in one of these? why not do the update.zip and sbf in that case?
i thought p3 posted on twitter there was no baseband update in either of them.
not true, sbf coming from 2.3.15 updated it all.

The SBF has a baseband update in it, but for almost everyone it won't matter because the baseband hasn't changed from 2.3.15. I think only people still on eclair or the froyo leak were the only ones who are behind on the baseband.

[Q] ROM updating with 2.2.1 (system 2.3.340)

If you are running version 2.2.1 (system 2.3.340) on your DroidX can you and what ROMs can you safely flash that are out? for instance dark slide? Or Fission?
both of those will run on the droid x but really look into the two best apex and gummyjar....
good luck just do some searching you will be alright...
Ive used a few TranQ which was horrible on my device 2 others that didn't work for beans and dark slide im on now. DS actually worked for a while but it has a memory leak and now with age its getting more unstable.
I wanted to go ahead and upgrade to the current basis of 2.3.340 system SBF but as warned " attempt to wipe with an old SBF, you WILL brick your phone." But I am a little confused on what classified as an older SBF at this point?

Highly subjective, I for instance think Fission is the best, and for those who want some blur, ApeX is my choice.

You can't just apply 2.3.340 over non-stock 2.3.15.
Make sure your bootloader is 30.03, if it is, then:
The easiest thing to do (in my opinion) is to flash the 2.3.15 full sbf with RSD Lite to get back to stock. Once that is done, then just do the OTA update on your phone to get to 2.3.340. After you've done that, you can use z4Root to get root access again and install bootstrapper, etc.
Now you can apply ApeX 1.3.1; you can get ApeX 1.3.1 here:

4.5.602 official ota sbf

is there one out?
i dont want to have to sbf to 2.3.340 or sbf 4.5.596 just to do the ota to get back to 4.5.602 each time?
there should be a 4.5.602 by now shouldnt there?
There's never an alloted time between when an update gets released and when we get the SBF file.
We can hope that it will be leaked soon; however, it may just be as well that you use the .596 SBF then update as the update file isn't large, and you wouldn't be able to obtain root either way.
If you're interested though the hour that one becomes available I will announce it here on Droid X General =D

i dont know.
if you are on 2.3.340 (OTA) and you then check for updates....does it find the .602 update and update you directly from there or dies it update you to .596 first then restart your phone and check for updates again and finds .602 and updates you and restarts your phone again?
if it goes straight to .602 from 2.3.340 with only one restart then that would mean there is a single sbf for .602 that is probably around 110MB wouldnt it?

I agree with the above post, it doesn't seem that a large SBF file would be released for such a small update; however, with Big Red you can never be sure. Until someone such as p3droid can confirm or deny that we will be getting an SBF file we will just have to wait.

your download time was QUICK because you were on 4.5.596
try it from 2.3.340
no offense but if i'm going back down to 2.3.340 i might as well install CM7 so i'd rather not.
I did notice a strange thing though, the white 3G icon is useable since I updated to 602. Its almost like its a weaker 3G indicator but still 3G and then there is the normal blue 3G icon. and yes the 1X still shows up so its not a replacement for that.

well then dont imply that since the update was a small update that it must be 2 seperate updates and then i wont say go back to 2.3.340 to see if there is only one update to 4.5.602
i already know that.
that is why i started this thread.
no need to get snippy, I can imply what everyone is saying and has posted, its a minor 11mb update for GB. So if you are on Froyo it will do nothing because it updates issues within GB. Just like if you were on Windows XP and a minor update for Windows 7 came up it would not affect you or bring you up to Windows 7.

When .602 first came out it was a seperate 11 mb file for anyone coming from 2.3.340.
So if you checked update on froyo you downloaded the large .596, rebooted, checked again then it downloaded .602. Now if you do the same, it will download the large combined .602 directly if your are on froyo.
I would like an SBF also.

Milestone X - C-Spire: Custom ROMS? Droid X Bootstrapper Working

Anyone with luck flashing a Milestone X w/ a custom ROM?
Running Rooted 2.3.5 w/bloatware removed (but backed up) along w/ DROID X Bootstrapper.
Have made my first full system backup using this tool.
If complete ROMS could not be used, what components would I need to modify, replace, ... exchange to get it to work on C-Spire (say, Verizon).
I've heard that there are some ROMS that don't mess with the baseband and other communications settings, files, frequencies, protocol, etc... What are these type called if they exist? Where can I find them? Are these a safer alternative to full ROMS?
Will DX Bootstrapper get the job done? Reports ClockworkMod REcovery v2.5.0.6.
I would recommend staying off custom roms for the Milestone X until a working sbf for us makes an appearance. Myself and ngholson both had issues where we got stuck in a bootloop and the sbf just output more errors until a replacement device was needed.

agreed. [10chars...............
another thing to consider, since we cannot sbf at this time, is that the bootstrapper will break your ability to install any future ota updates. it modifies the logwrapper and makes a copy called logwrapper.bin, however, uninstalling the bootstrapper and restoring the logwrapper file does not correct the problem. best i can tell the only answer that i can find when this happens is to sbf back to stock... well you see where this is going.... currently we cannot do this, so unless you never want the ota upgrades i do not recommend installing the bootstrapper on cspire's milestone x.
oh well nevermind went back and re-read your post, you already have the bootstrapper installed. (at least you did it after ota)
here is a link to the post that has the sbf that is reported to work with cell south (cspire) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1117885
maybe someone else can try it again and report back.

I can confirm that the old sbf it does not work after ota update. I had to get a new phone. I have rooted, but I am not installing a bootstrapper until a working sbf is available. Hopefully that will happen soon.
I am on C spire out of Byram, MS and can in fact confirm that "Droid X Bootstrapper" from the market indeed works like a charm on the Milestone X with stock versions 2.2.2 and 2.3.5.
I use "Super One Click" to root, then the same prog to "Allow non market apps" then buy "Droid X Bootstrapper" from market, run it. Reboot while holding camera button and power button,,,,voila

A little trick I figured out to sbf back to stock,,,,download the latest ota from Cspire "Blur_Version.3.2.6.MB809.ACG-CellSouth.en.US" blah blah,,,,,rename it to "update.zip",,,,not "update.zip.zip"put it on the root of your sd card and boot into stock recovery or clockwork mod and run update.......BLAM! Simple as that...

i tried that too it didn't work for me.
I dunno,,,, it worked for me twice. I tried to update cwm from the app using the flash for droid x and it messed up my recovery. So i updated to the latest ota from Cspire via the stock android recovery by naming the ota file to update.zip and running it like that.
I'm running CM7 nightlies for the droid x on the Milestone x....you might have to remove the line of code in the update file that asked for Kernel assert,,,,I can't remember, but seems like it kept giving me an error that says, "assert failed: run_program("/tmp/check_kernel") but after that all was fine.

what has been the best in your opinion? i just upgraded from the hero and was running aosp and loved it.
i actually like some of the blur apps, hard to believe that i like a custom ui on android lol.
i have been reading on the droid x vs milestone x and i am weary of flashing update that also includes the radio/baseband.
what version of cm7 nightfiles are you on? any complaints?

I am getting the exact same error. Where do I need to go to eliminate this line of code. I have setup everything else up until this point and it works perfectly with recovery and everything. A bit of help please.

Open the ROM zip and go: META-INF/com/google/android/ and in the updater-script, remove the code that asked for Kernel assert.

I too just upgraded from the Hero....and I still love that phone! My hero has had every rom known on it,,,and some that weren't even made for it....It's unbrickable! LOL
Yea, the Milestone is a little more finicky than the Hero, and with Motorola's locked bootloaders, one could get in a fix..
I've ran the past 3 nightlies and currently on cm_shadow_full-154.zip.
I tell ya, they all have some kind of bug somewhere. It all depends on what you want to put up with. Me, personally, I like the stock ota 2.3.5 from Cspire. It works. Plain and simple. Now, I would like some of the CM7 options and spare parts.

Open the updater-script with notepad (new to this) and found no mention of kernel assert. Almost there...a bit more help would get me in.
It should be the top 3 lines, if I remember correctly.... I checked it out on my phone to make sure but,,,, duh, I already removed it (face palm).
It's in there somewhere.
Run install again and right down all the errors... Then try to find them in the script file.
I'm new to this also (as far as motorola stuff) too. And I take risks that most people wouldn't..... Hell, if I mess something up bad enough , just sbf back.
I'll try to help you more when I get off work... Maybe send you my roms that have already been fixed.
Make sure to turn off script and signature asserts off in cwm... Sometimes that helps.

I despised that phone lol, wait i take that back, i guess i had "phone" envy lol Mine was a rom whore as well, it was rooted almost immediately after i got it with the ole gold card method.
the ota 2.3.5 is actually a good CLEAN rom, i do like the fact that it is so clean, just need a few tweaks as you said from the cm7 build, status bar tweaks ect..
may build up one.
built a rom for a tablet we are selling here, BIG learning curve but the locked boot-loader throws a real curve ball
now, have you gotten it to overclock?

that still amazes me. i haven't tried it on 2.3.5, but when i did it from stock 2.2.2 it was a no go.... maybe it will only work if you are already on 2.3? hell i dunno... motorola has me chasing my tail.... like everyone else, i came from the hero too, that was one awesome little phone. i read somewhere that the motorola bootloader had been cracked by someone on here but..... not sure what ever happened there.....

I am waiting for the fruitcake to upgrade. But with the CM9 project almost ready as a daily driver I wonder if it is best to skip it.
Hello, Could you let me know the process of upgrading, i am currently on 2.3.4 version, thanks for your support in advance
is this the OTA update that will be coming out once the soak is done? Do you update just like you would with a regular OTA? This is the US ATT English version correct?
i am also waiting for fruitcake
Anybody been brave enough to confirm if this will indeed brick a device with an unlocked bootloader?

As with most of these awesome STOCK firmware sbf's this will most likely brick your device if you don't know what your doing and have an already unlocked boot loader.
If your running locked tight boot loaders flash away, I'm ripping this sucker apart for the webtop that we lost in the fruitcake posts.
THANK YOU OP!!!

I do know what I'm doing - I'm just not going to carelessly flash something thats rumored to cause a brick - the only way to brick with an sbf before this came out was downgrading from GB to Froyo....

Granted but also flashing anything with a not unlocked Boot.img file or I belive it was the CG51.smg within the sbf will make you have to jump hoops to get it back up and running. Using fastboot and another pudding reflash.
Ive done this with the 2.3.4 sbf just for kicks due to me not having that burnt efuse its still a pinta using stock sbfs best thing to do is unpack then flash the correct CG's needed via fastboot, or unpack and repack the whole think. I couldn't break the repacking part on custom sbf's.

Would it be possible to swap the bootloader in the 2.3.6 sbf with the 2.3.4 unlockable bootloader in Edgan's sbf ? hmmm...
Im all stock. I just want the new OTA update and not have to wait for the soak test to be done.

No but there is a tread about sbf's and fastboot linked in the pudding thread that has alot of good information on both subjects check it out you can how ever repack an 2.3.6 sbf with a 2.3.6 boot.img (from one of the roms out there converted to .smg ofcourse) and repack it that should work.
Another question - Does anyone have a FULL 2.3.4 sbf file that I can swap the 2.3.4 unlockable bootloader into? I've got a service 2.3.4 sbg - But i need a full one.... anyone? please?

Are there any obvious advantages to this update? I'll probably just wait for the OTA
Any word on root for this version? Have you tried anything yet?

That's good, I was just hoping someone had tried the 'One Click' method found > HERE < and it still worked for this version as well.
