Try to SBF using the Linux method, it usually has better results. If it is successful you should then be able to access the recovery.

If you cant acces CWD and are stuck at the boot logo then yes. Did you try to do a battery pull?

If you are on GB the stock recovery button pattern is different. I had the same problem on my dx. You should Google it and try that. I don't remember the button pattern. Pm me if you need more help.

Flashing a new is sbf is very easy I just done mine yesterday ( bricked mine trying to change rom too.) Now I'm back up and running without an issue. Pm me for the link to the sbf if you still need it

your ol' lady's gonna be pissed.....
Ok..sbfd...was really easy compared to using nvflash on tegra2. The longest part of the whole thing was dling the sbf file over a ****ty mi-fi connection.
Z4 root, liberty toolbox nightly, bam - running liberty gb.
Not so bad... hopefully wont bar my gf from allowing me to **** around with her phone in the future.

SBF errors

Hi I have been trying to flash SBF for about 2 weeks now. Can someone please point me to the 1.5.7 sbf that they know works. I have tried about 4 different files. And it either goes straight to processing and finishes in about 2mins then gives error, the other file goes fine and takes about 35min to finish but then gives the error cannot flash file. Iam now rooted on 1.83 but cannot enable webtop hack and would like flash a clean build. Thanks.

Think you have to flash. 1.2.6 retail sbg we have here first, than update to 1.5.7. No sure if you can go back from 1.8.3 but I was reading that some people here did it without any issues

I got the .57 webtop hack to work on .83 after clearing my /data.
Not sure why this works (I had try to clear everything *dock* *portal* etc in /data already) but it did.

Consider using RSDLite 5.0 and not any newer versions.

Top this.... My GB attempt =FUBAR!!!

My setup -froyo, rooted and themed (no rom). 07 bootloader.
Tried to go to. 588 by three step process..... FAILED (error 7)
Tried to go to. 596 tbh 2 step method..... FAILED
Tried to sbf....... FAILED ( used 2 diff versions of rsd and downloaded full sbf 2 diff times)
Tried to take the OTA...... FAILED
The only good in all of this is the fact that I could restore my backup with nandroid, and I really don't mind froyo. It's been pretty good to me. For the love of God what have I done in a prior life to deserve this

What OS are you trying to sbf on? I had to rename the sbf and place it on the root of my C drive to get it to work
XP, it runs fine, sees my device, runs the sbf and fails at the end.

I would have to agree. I have done it twice now without any issues on my Ubuntu box. If you don't want to actually install Ubuntu you can run it off a thumbdrive or even a cd.
No idea what that is but I will do some googleing and give it a try. Thanks.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Why would Ubuntu make the sbf work? Also what is the process for doing the sbf with the operating system? Seems crazy but if it works, what the hell, I'll try it.

Because it's linux. And designed more for this kind of thing than windows.
It is incredibly simple because you enter one command in the terminal. And it just works. Pm me if you (or anyone here) want a link, the admin doesn't like me posting the site I use

Flashed wrong rom

So I recently bought a droid x, I currently own an evo shift.. so I rooted the droid and installed boostrap x.. now I nandroided and proceeded to flash miui.us 1.10.21, so upon completion phone is stuck at the M screen... now I go into recovery via "home and "power" but I can't flash any rom besides and update.zip... I was on stock 2.2.1 which is my problem since its GB rom... my question what can I do to boot my phone up?? Any insight would be great..

You have to SBF.
Google for instructions on how to do so, it's really easy and returns your phone to stock.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Thanks I will def try that...
Update: sbf work flawless... now my question is... if I want to flash miui.us do I use boostrap X or 2?

Use Droid 2 Bootstrapper.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Are you on froyo stock or gingerbread stock? Because if you are using a newer version of MIUI and on the froyo kernel then youll get stuck on the bootlogo. One good way to tell if youre on froyo or gingerbread is by the boot logo, red moto=gingerbread; white moto=froyo
if ur on froyo u use dx bootloader, if ur on gb u use d2 bootstrap

I find that Droid 2 Bootstrapper works just as well on Froyo.

Sorry for the late reply.. I had a hard time getting my phone to take the sbf.. I was stuck on the boot logo (red) andqould not tke the sbf.. I finally was able to revert back to sbf. 340.. now I wanna goto miui as that was I wad running on my shift.. I've read I need to sbf to. 602 first.. so do I need to do that first or can I just flash miui from. 340?
