Could i use rsd lite to sbf to milestone x firmware instead if ubuntu
Sent from my DROIDX using xda app-developers app
You could flash the milestone X SBF with RSD lite however it would not do any good because when flashing an SBF in windows the radio is also flashed and the radio packaged with the milestone X firmware is not compatible with VZW. That's why we use Ubuntu to do this, because the VZW radio is left intact.

No problem I know someone created a live CD image that has everything included where all you do is run a script and boom its done for you automatically, you can just burn it and then if you ever need to sbf in the future you will be able to just boot the live disc and be ready to roll. I just can't remember where it is.. I think it might be on another forum. maybe try to Google it hope that helps

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.

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.

I am 100% sure this link works. Ive flashed it myself several times.
http://bandbinnovations.com/xda/OLYFR_U4_1.5.7_SIGNED_OLPSATTSPE_P012_HWolympus_1g_1FF.sbf.gz
Consider using RSDLite 5.0 and not any newer versions.

Sent from my DROIDX using XDA Premium App
have you ever tried to sbf through 1kds (from droid x forums i think) linux bootable disc... its how i sbf and it never fails me
http://www.multiupload.com/ZUK28IEYAU
just burn iso to cd and boot from it and it does all the work for you
but besides that.. what method did you do to sbf
I used the Linux bootable disk method and I am back at 2.3.340. However, the only way I can make my device stable is to let it upgrade back to Verizon's OTA download.
Everything is stable on mi e when I sbf I don't know if it matters if it still says 2.6 because it still lets me download roms that say I need to be on 2.340 like rubix liberty and justice I just downloaded

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.

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?

So I know that the OTA update 2.3.4 (621) made flashing sbfs impossible due to it leading to a bricked phone, but if you use the new root method and successfully root the D2, does it fix this and make it possible to flash sbfs? For those who don't know, this is the new root method.

I don't think I can post links yet so just copy paste that into your search bar, or a higher ranked user post the link.
You can still flash sbfs you just can't downgrade thanks to the new bootloader
