[HELP] SBF/ RSD Lite not working - Motorola Droid X2

I have tried both older and newer versions of RSD Lite and the drivers for the X2, have un installed and re installed the drivers from both my win7 laptop and my XP desktop numerous time, let all drivers fully detect and install and rebooted the systems. USB debugging is active and I have followed SBF Tutorial straight through. My phone is on the manually downloaded stock version of 2.3.3 from xda and has never been rooted.
I start RSD and point it to SBF file, plug in USB to computer, startup phone to fastboot menu and scroll to rsd and hit volume up, connect phone to computer and....... nothing, phone is not recognized by rsd and start button does nothing.
I need help to sbf back to 2.2 so I can run pre-rooted 2.3.3 !
Any thoughts or suggestions?

I used these successfully this morning.

Try wiping data. I tried to RSD Lite this morning and it wouldn't boot after, so I wiped data and it worked. Also does RSD take a while to finish? It should. About 10 minutes. If it takes 5 minutes, somethings not working, at that point I would suggest re-downloading your SBF file, make sure the file you are using is for the DROID X2.

Have you solved this yet? Im interested in knowing what worked for you

I haven't had a chance to work on this yet. I can tell you that the sbf file is the one from the DROID X2 forums. RSD will not show anything working when I hit start and does not show my device, I have also done a full wipe .....twice

Well here's another random thing to try, try starting rsdlite, get the phone to rsd but don't push volume up, connect the phone and then press volume up to start rsd in phone, idea from a random thread I found

Boot up your phone and plug it in. Does anything show up in device manager? Also, with your phone booted, if you plug it in does lsd lite recognize it?

If you are still under warranty you could try dropping the phone in a bucket of water and try it with a new phone! That gem just came to me in a dream

I understand you had your sense of humor removed, and im sorry about that, but I don't think the OP is actually going to try it, I've been working with him on the issue and I think he understands im not being serious. Your advice was just as helpful, if you read the first post he answered all your questions
Sent from my DROID X2 using XDA App

Hmm...don't see anything about device manager or if rsd lite can recognize it during normal booting of the phone.
Do you know who will be reading your post in two months? Will they know you were kidding?

If you want more detailed info on his problem read all his posts on the sbf tutorial thread, this guy has tried everything rsd foes not recognize he has a device plugged in everything else does

Yes, it shows I'm DM on Windows but not RSD Lite... Gave that phone to my wife now, but will work on it when she let's me. I will keep all of your suggestions in mind. Thanks for the help.

You have to put the phone in RED mode. Here's how. Press down on volume while powering on phone. Youll see fastboot on the top of screen. Next scroll with volume down until you see RSD protocol, around 8or9 clicks. Then plug in phone, you should be good.

I'm having the exact same issue with Windows 7 x64 posted about it in another thread, anyone having any revelations?
Also OP what did you have your phone set up with before you were trying to restore it? I had V6 supercharger and root through gingerbreak 1.2, I unrooted with gingerbreak 1.2 and tried to remove v6 by re-running the script and choosing the options that sounded like they would unroot it. I then factory reset it a few times. Maybe its something we did with our phones.

Hey actually quick question for you OP added to the previous post, are you using a Motorola USB cable or some other micro-USB cable, I'm using an HTC right now I'm going to get my hands on a Motorola in a few and try that.

I didn't do anything fancy with the phone prior to downloading the stock ota and flashing it in stock recovery. Never rooted or anything. I was using the Motorola usb that came with the phone. I am still going to work this out when I can steal it from my wife long enough.

[updated][how-to] sbf tutorial [how-to][updated]

Ok, so after scanning through the SBF thread and a few others and finding instructions all over the place, I decided to bring them all together in one post. Sorry if I don’t mention everybody that contributed these instructions by name but there were a lot of instructions on how to flash the SBF to our phone. You know who you are and I personally thank you and believe everybody else does also.
To begin, download the necessary files and drivers:
Froyo 2.2.2 SBF File
Gingerbread 2.3.3 SBF File
Gingerbread 2.3.4 SBF File
RSD Lite 5.3.1 and Drivers
RSD Lite 5.4.4
1. Reboot your computer and your phone after downloading and installing everything and before you go to flash the SBF file. Use 7-zip to extract the SBF file...
2. Once you have rebooted your computer, go ahead and start RSD Lite and point it at the SBF file and plug your USB cable into your computer ONLY!
3. Turn your phone off.
4. Turn the phone on by pressing and holding the POWER AND VOLUME DOWN buttons until you see FASTBOOT. Press volume down until you reach RSD and press volume up once.
5. Plug your phone into your computer and wait until you see it in RSD Lite and click Start.
6. Your phone will reboot when the process is complete. DO NOT UNPLUG YOUR PHONE FROM UNTIL THE COMPUTER UNTIL THE PROCESS IS COMPLETE.
7. If the phone boot loops pull the battery and boot into the stock recovery by pressing and holding power and volume down until the phone says FASTBOOT, once the phone says FASTBOOT, press volume down until you see ANDROID RECOVERY, once you see ANDROID RECOVERY, press BOTH the volume up and the volume down buttons. You will see the familiar triangle with the exclamation point and the Android. At this point press volume up and down simultaneously again and select “wipe data/factory data reset” by pressing the power button.
8. Reboot your phone and you should be back to full factory default, like new out of the box.
If you have any other problem with RSD Lite, try running it as administrator in Win 7/Vista...
Thank you, very helpful and thanks to everyone involved. Let's get this ball Rollin baby!

That is actually a great question Slowz3r.... I would love to know how to open that SBF, but I really have no clue... I will try and see if maybe I can open it in Linux. If anybody around here has any ideas or has already tried this, please let me know...
TIA
I have followed this guide to the letter, even to the point of redownloading both the SBF and the drivers a few times. Even after a reboot, when I plug my phone into the computer it says "Unable to retrieve initialization values from INI file"
I've tried it every day for the past 3 and to no avail, always same issue.
Edit: I did a clean uninstall and reinstall of everything, rebooted, and it worked. So I suppose it was an installation error of sorts.
Anyone else notice that to the right under platform it says 4G Tegra? Some also stated that their computer detected a 4G Modem when the phone was in a certain mode.

Yes, I have also seen this in the options before you get to rsd mode... Don't know what that means or why its labelled that way but it is definitely interesting... It would be great to find out what motorola might have to say about this and if that may be why we have been waiting so long for an update!!! I highly doubt it tho, but still nice to think about...

This happened to me also, i found out after two hours of forum searching, that you need 5.3 rsd lite, the one in the download worked for me, but maybe its your operating system, i had to use my xp computer because it would not work on my Win. 7 machine. Hope this helps.

It should work with Win 7 as that is what I am running... The link I have posted for rsd lite is 5.3... Maybe if you run rsd lite as admin??? I didn't have to but that might be a solution....
It Works!!
This is the first Sbf download that worked for me, i noticed that this one was over 700 mb in size. All the other ones were 482 mb. I guess those were just the partial Sbf. Thanks for this, i really needed it!
I had to do a factory reset of my phone the other day. I used RSD5.3.1 and the 482 mb SBF.
I bootlooped initially on the reboot but after doing a battery pull and then going into recovery, everything worked. I did get a couple settings wrong on setting up the phone but fortunately, there is a Verizon store very close by.
All the bloatware that TB had backed up up prior to me uninstalling came back. After the reload, I re-rooted but haven't uninstalled or frozen anything yet.

Actually the sbf included here is also 482 mb... Maybe the other downloads got corrupted?? However, I'm just glad it worked for you!

[Q] problem unlocking bootloader

so, i tried to unlock my bootloader following qbking's video and hard bricked my 1st photon. I bricked when i tried to flash derpunlock using rsdlite 5.5
In the compendium thread, it looks like the steps were slightly different and i was wondering if i just screwed up qbking's instructions, or should i follow the compendium instead?
sorry if this is a stupid question. any help would be much appreciated.
You cant get into rsd protocal?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
If you followed all the steps you should have been fine, are you sure you didn't forget anything? Maybe download RSS lite 5.6, that's the latest and it worked for my photon
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
i got to where it said "Starting RSD protocol support" like in the video by holding Power + Vol. up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwRjFrzClBs
then i hit Start in RSD lite. It froze at "Executing 99%" like the video said it would, but my phone went black and never turned on again.
looking closer, i see that im flashing derpunlock and he's flashing pudding_stock_unlock. could that have done it?
derpunlock is what i used if i remember correctly
does anyone has a link to the driver flash MDM6600
Well yeah its supposed to do that. Did you wait for it to say flashing failed before you unplugged the phone? Cause once it does, that part of the unlocking process is done, and if you turned on your phone manually, it'd still start up like it used to. It might take a while to say flashing failed on rsd lite, but you cant unplug it until you do
yeah, i waited til it said flashing failed. my phone was off when it was done though, couldnt ever get it back on after that.
should i run RSDlite when my phone says "RSD" or "starting rsd protocal"?
also, thanks for the replies everyone.

[Q] droid x2/milestone x2 is freezing on doal core startup screen

My droid x2 freezes on the dual core start up screen every time i try to turn it on, i pulled the battery out the first time this happened, and I've already went into recovery mode and did the (wipe data/factory reset) option, and i also wiped my cache partition, but still my phone freezes on boot. my phone started doing this when i was using "mcTweaker" and a notification popped up and it said i need to reboot, but as the same time i hit reboot system in the options menu. when i did this the phone cut off and since then it always freezes on the dual core screen when i start it up. i am also still on the stock rom and am rooted. any help or tips on how to fix this is highly appreciated.
if you can still can get to recovery, and have a backup, restore it
as you have wiped data, that is unlikely, unless you flashed re-recovery
sbf is your last option

Ok my bad, i feel lyk such a noob... i just wasnt waiting long enough for the starting RSD protocol support thing. Problem solved
great, just don't flash wrong sbf
Droid x2 and Milestone x2 have different sbfs, because they are different devices, different radios
ok for some reason it stays on the (Starting RSD Protocol Support) screen and never advances onto anything else D: is there a fix for this or is my completely screwed. i thought since the thread i read said it takes 3-5 minutes to start it up thats what my problem was, but i was wrong, the thing just simply wont start up... sorry for false assumption
yes that's it "Starting RSD Protocol Support"
is all is does, till you start rsd lite, doesn't change till half way through sbf or more
Ok thank you sooo much, this was frustrating me since last friday and i think the rsd lite i had was the problem, i went and downloaded a different one and now its working ... once again thanks for your help, ill get back to ya if i mess anything else up haha

now when i try to do it it says (error switching phone to BP Pass through mode) idk what to do or why its doing this
its a driver issue
a couple of options
use the moto drivers program
or ezSBF for x2, no drivers needed
both in my list of stuff
sd_shadow's list of links for Droid FAQs, SBF, Rooting, ROMs.... https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Goawxdx_UBF4Y8lqzHYWf8Ha3yUcRK4faq0UWIlXLWA/edit
also the fix for the d2 was
" Note: Under certain circumstances (especially when using Windows Vista and Windows 7) there might be a problem with not all device drivers being installed correctly. In such case, the flashing process will abort, and your phone won't be able to boot normally. RSDLite shows the following error message:
Error switching phone to BP Pass through mode
To get around this issue, once you get a Device driver could not be installed message from Windows, don't close RSDLite nor power off the phone. Start Motorola Driver Installer once again, and let it finish. Then if RSDLite didn't timeout yet, head to Device Manager, find the Unknown device, and in its properties' Driver tab click Update driver…. It should now install normally. If RSDLite timed out and you got an error from it, just repeat the SBF process. The driver should now be present, and the flashing process will finish normally.
Once the flashing process is complete, RSDLite will tell you to “power the phone up manually”. In most cases you won't be able to do this straight as instructed: the phone will be bootlooping. Take the battery out, and then place it back in. Press the lock/power button: the phone should boot normally. Close RSDLite. Disregard the warning about flashing not being completed since your phone has already booted into Android.
In case you still get bootloops after pulling the battery, wipe data in Android Recovery. "

[Q] Weird problem with droid x2

I really screwed up my droid x2. As soon as it turns on it gives me an error
"Sorry!
The process com.motorola.service.main has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Force Close"
After taping on force close all I see is a black screen with the status bar. I am able to access recent apps long pressing home screen. I am also able to use Google search by long pressing search key and speaking into it. I tried going into android recovery and wiping data and cache but it did not help. I wanted to SBF but it gets stuck on "starting RSD protocol support" screen.
Any help to just get the phone running will be appreciated. Thank you folks.
PS: The phone is rooted with stock android 2.3.5. Also USB debugging got disabled since I did factory restore prior to this mess up
-------------------------------
UPDATE 6/24/13
-------------------------------
Successful SBF ed without USB debugging on using windows 7
Phone works but shows a grey triangle outline in notification bar (seems network issue since phone is not activated)
Its been a while since I have done an SBF on this phone. But When it says "starting RSD protocol" I think thats when you run the SBF on your computer.
Also, what were you trying to do when this happened? Flash a ROM? If so, which one? If it was a Cyanogenmod ROM, you need to be on 2.3.4. Not 2.3.5. That may have caused your problem.

I had rooted my phone few days back, and I had frozen my bloatwares. But I noticed that I wasn't able to access my contacts it forced closed, and so i unfroze my bloatware but it did not work. Then I did factory reset after which this problem started.
I am using RSDlite 5.3.1 on windows 8, but since my USB debugging is disabled, I don't think I can SBF and RSD lite doesnt recognize my device. I am not sure tho

I think Windows 8 may be your problem. I think I remember people having problems with it. I dont think USB debugging matters with SBF. Once you start the RSD Protocol, it should open it up to start the SBF.
Did you also make sure you had the motorola drivers on your computer?

Windows 8 is the problem. I remember rsd lite would never work on my windows 8 laptop.

now that i have successfully SBF'd it to 2.3.4 and applied OTA updates it is still showing tht gray triangle outline, and for some reason it keep getting errors while trying to root it. I tried petes tools and other one click methods. In petes tools i get error sayin phone rooted but cannot push superuser.apk while in other one click method it tell me adb server is out of date

Don't update. Sbf back to 2.3.4 then root. Stay on 2.3.4 if you want to use a custom rom
