So my DX2 is DEAD and whenever I try to Start RSD Protocol process it says "Battery too low to flash" and it won't charge. Everytime I try to charge it, the phone powers on and stays on the "M" HELP?!!!
It still charges while the M is on. Just maybe let it sit like that for an hour or so then try RSD.

Not trying to be unhelpful, but this post doesn't belong here in the developement forum; rather in the Q&A Forums.

Absolutely 100% correct. Even while displaying the "M", if you plug in using the wall charger, it will charge.

When you actually brick a device, you cannot see anything and nothing, nothing will happen. You answered your own question. Just plug your phone in while on that screen and give it another try in an hour or so.

Yeah thats true too. No offence, just sounds like a user error. Maybe get another battery? Thats why I'm so glad when they swapped my X for the X2 they let me keep the X battery and my girls when she went to the INC2. They sent me a 1990mAh extended battery too so I got two spare original batteries I keep charged. As the other two said again, let it sit an hour or so, try RSD and I'm sure your phone will come back. Even if you get a 100% after RSD and says to manually boot this phone, if it bootloops, battery pull, go to android recovery, data and cache wipe, reboot system and all should work from there.

Nope your just in a really tough spot. Try what the other poster and I suggested and report back. There's an encyclopedia of technical terms some where if you need help understanding posts.

You are only soft bricked, which means you only need to either wipe devak cache, wipe cache, or possibly do a factory reset. Unless you flashed a system file that put your X2 to sleep till you sbf. Now its sick and it needs to be sbf'ed. Bricked is when it needs to possibly be sent back to Big Red for a Transplant or burial.
Because it is no longer able to get juice through it's motherboard, and turn on.
"I could be wrong" but I soft brick 3 to 10 times daily. Just flashing stuff I have no business flashing. But I flash ReRecovery after every file I flash, just in-case.
I also have a Recovery on hand to restore my system.
I never flash on a low battery. Hope I explained it well enough, Good Luck!!!
I don't want you to think I was being a smart a$$ just trying to explain in a way that most understand.

Thank You'
I get confused reading posts all day, sometimes lost, some terms confuse me to.
I'm ADHD & Dyslexic so try to understand the important part of what I need and analyze it in a way I understand it.
Just hope it helps others in the same way.

External barlttery charger is what I used. I was in the same sticky spot. I went without a phone for close to two weeks. The phone would not let me charge the battery while the splash logo was showing and I hadn't gotten bsr installed yet. Look on Amazon, the chargers are only 5 bucks

I also bought a external charger for around 5 bucks. Its a must have if you have more than one battery.

No progress sadly:/ I'm going to try what the guy a couple of post above said. I'll report back with my results. Thank you guys a lot tho. Means a lot when others contribute to one person. Glad to have people like you all. Now should I charge in another Droid x2 and SBF or is there another option?

You could use the battery from the other Dx2 while yours is charging. Saves a little time both ways once your battery has enough charge to kick start at least a quarter %. You can drop it in yours and finish charging only takes 5 maybe 6 min to sbf. Good Luck.

Cut a micro usb cable
Strip the red and black wires
Strip the green and white wires then twist those two together
Attached the black to the negative - on the battery and the positive to the + on the battery. This will manually charge the battery.
Be warned: you can overcharge your phone. Overcharging is bad so don't do it.
Use this method at your own risk. Neither Ace nor I are responsible for what happens!

Dude, I have bee trying to flash back to stock and run the dam RUU. But my phone has been stuck in bootloader for a day and the RUU says needs 30% battery to run...But the phone will not charge because the screen is ON on Bootloader. I have the charge cable attached hoping to charge while the screen is ON. If I turn the phone OFF...and plug the cable..it automatically turns the phone ON in bootloader again !!!
Help
Try plugging it into a wall outlet to charge it. Also from bootloader cant you select power off ?? Can't remember ATM.

it sounds like your volume button may be stuck
you should try plugging in before you turn the phone off. it should start charging after you turn it off. its the same way on the iphone and countless other phones

Today morning, my phone was at a charge of 10% and I put it on charge and after sometime my phone went off and since then it's not starting.
I tried the USB cable. The charger also but nothing is working.
I don't know how to start it.
Any type of help will be very appreciated.
Phone does not turn on when battery is <5%. Charge your phone using the original Motorola charger, preferably use wall charger for say 30 mins at least. If it does not work, try different plug point.

Well if still nothing works you can use the factory cable either make it other buy one on ebay and use it Rsd lite back to stock and bring the phone back up to life

I just had this issue last night. The phone wouldn't turn on but the notification light was bright white and wouldn't go out. I just left it plugged into the computer overnight and by the time I woke up, the phone was on and had a 61 percent charge this was over a period of about 7 hours.

But in my case its a bit different, the notification light is no more blinking or something. It's just the black screen. Not turning on at all.
Tonight I will leave my phone on charge for more than 7 hours for sure. I really hope it starts.
Thanks for the reply.

I have ordered for a factory cable. I am gonna try putting up a new ROM on the phone. Let's see if that works.
I recalled one more thing, before my phone got bricked, the day prior to that I used battery calibration application on my phone. Do you think that would have affected my phone?
