Had no clue what to do (Didn't know how to boot into recovery without accessing Android...was a bit frantic) so I flashed the SBF over...immediately gave me Text FC, Skype FC, Keyboard FC, etc...and I can't get past my "Touch Android to Begin" Screen.

You need to boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset. The SBF only resets the /system partition, not the /data.

Pull your battery, put it back in. Hold your volume button down while powering up. Once you see the boot screen with words in the corner, tap volume down until you see recovery. Tap volume up. Wipe data and factory reset.

sometimes my touch screen doesn't work and I need to lock the phone and unlock then works again.
is this software or hardware problem? If it is hardware, why I lock+unlock it works again?

Bah, this happened to me aswell, it's a hardware problem with the digitizer. Download the app touch test and check for dead spots with it.
i have this problem too im on cm7 and i saved my pds back when i unlocked my bootloader and reflashing it does nothing. it will sometimes have no response when the screen is locked, it wont wake up the red led is lit, but just very dim battery pull is the only way to recover any ideas.

I'm running into this same issue and I'm curious to know if it was a hassle from Motorola to get a replacement sent out.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Just make an account with MOTOROLA and go to GET HELP tab-->SERVICE MY PRODUCT--> and follow accordingly..
It should be covered under warranty
Mine is hopefully in the mail by Monday... YAY!!!
happened to me too. sent back to ATT was a bit nervous because I unlocked the bootloader, but lo and behold no issues (like always)
it got progressively worse, touch test showed the center wasn't responding, then more and more and more until I couldn't touch a thing (I had since switched to a backup)
got my replacement, all is well.
I did notice that this seemed to have happened after I started spending considerable amount of time playing the game "R-Type" obviously the app didn't do it, but it has touch controls that require you to keep your finger pressed on the center of the screen for a prolonged time, just food for thought.
This thread has made me happy
I'm going to contact the guy who sold me my Atrix on the marketplace and see if he will help me return it to Moto.
have the same problem, its very annoying. try going on to stock rom for about a week then switch back to what ever rom you want and then see what happens.
Hi, I am running Liberty rom and cant get into recovery using Bootstrap recovery. I have the apk installed and when I click it, it restarts the phone but just stays on the Motorola boot screen does not go into recovery. I am plugged into the wall charger with USB debugging on. I might add that I was able to get into recovery before installing Liberty Rom, although I doubt that the Rom is the issue. Any suggestions? TIA
when i was running liberty the only way i could get into system recovery was to go into recovery app and select recovery mode. the phone would re-boot into recovery. If i tried to simply power off the phone and plug it in, as i have always done to get into recovery once it is setup, it would just hang at the moto screen. not sure what caused this to start happening, hope it helps.
Hi, thanks for the reply, I used apk, and it rebooted the phone but only to the Motorola initial boot screen. If I try it the way you sugested it does the same thing just hangs at the Motorola screen wont go into recovery. Don't understand what happened.
I can boot into the Motorola recovery but, that would only allow me to restore the phone to factory.

Still not seeing the green X2 recovery menu
Hi All:
Been following this thread but I'm still not getting the "green" X2 system recovery menu option (vs the blue Android recovery menu).
So, I redownloaded MOTODX2_Bootstrap_signed.rar, unzipped it again, reinstalled the program & rebooted once again just for good measure.
I also confirmed I'm rooted via the superuser app and I can get into the system recovery app thru the app drawer.
sys recovery apps comes up, I click "install recovery" and I get the "install success" message. I wait a few mins before pressing OK. Then, I press the "recovery mode" menu option and, after a few secs, the phone auto reboots. So far so good...
Then, like everyone else, I get the Motorola logo...but NOT the green X2 recovery menu options I'm expecting (like in the Youtube video I checked out). Instead, it goes straight to that greaI then pull the battery, wait a few secs (just because it feels good), re-install the battery and power up the phone.
Again, all I get is the Motorola startup logo, then it presents me with the infamous "D-R-O-I-D" voice in grey letters followe that cyborg-looking red eye, before completely booting to the home screen again.
I'm new to the Droid X2, but I have successfully rooted/flashed Ice Cream Sandwich on my EVO 4G, so I know I'm doing something stupid on my X2, despite the two phones being from totally different mfrs.
Any ideas? I can handle getting laughed at if I'm forgetting something dumb; for me, the most important thing is coming away from this w/ a little more knowledge and experience than before.
Thanks in advance for everyone's expertise, patience, & willingness to help!

Sorry about all the typos & confusion it might have generated...
Just wanted to add some more info to my previous post...
Yes, usb debugging is checked
Yes, allow unknown sources is also checked
Yes, I'm following the 4 step in the X2 recovery menu to the letter (including connecting my phone to the AC charger, even though batt is fully charged, before I press the 3rd button - Recovery Mode)
Thank you...
Have you tried to turn your phone off and then plug the a/c charger into the phone and see if the battery symbol comes up or tenfar bootstrap? If bootstrap is installed it should go straight to that. Do not hit the power button just see which mode it goes to first. If it does not go to bootstrap I would try and get a fresh download of app and try again. If still not working sbf and start fresh.
If nothing else works, try a different charger. The Moto charger should work but other brands may or may not. I've got several other chargers for other devices. One of them won't boot the phone to recovery even though I can use it to charge the battery. Output too low perhaps? I don't know. Only know it doesn't work for recovery. If that's not the problem, try another cable. I also have one of those that for some reason won't boot it to recovery. It boots and stops at the red M. It's probably not the problem but it can't hurt to give these things a try.

Like others said.
BEFORE PRESSING RECOVERY MODE BUTTON make sure you are plugged into a charger and plugged INTO WALL OUTLET....(plugging into computer WILL NOT work)
Our bootstrap hijacks charge only.mode.
So once u have hit install recovery and it says success and u press recovery mode(while plugged in,) it will shut phone down and the.hijack will install and completely and take you to BSR recovery menu.
This had me at first also. didn't think wall charger or plugged into computer made a difference but was wrong. Had to be plugged into wall charger.

I was running mlk's ics release on my evo 3d. I had hboot 1.40 and s-off. I had no problems flashing the rom and I was using it with no problems.I have been using it since it was released. No issues. Yesterday, I just went to reboot the system through the advance power menu. The phone went dead immediately, mind you my phone is fully charged. I tried going into recovery using the usual vol down + power, phone doesnt respond. I plug in the usb cable and tried it again, no luck. So I tried pressing all the buttons (power, vol up, vol down and camera button) the phone flashes the htc screen then shuts off. That is the only response I get. When I use adb devices it lists this:
"HT16FHX07713 recovery"
I can get the phone to do the same thing as mentioned above when i do "adb reboot recovery", it just flashes the htc screen for less than a second then goes off while still showing that it is charging.
Can anyone shed some light on what I can do to fix this? If you need any info, let me know and I'll try to provide what I can. Thanks
I see that you tried adb reboot recovery but have you tried adb reboot bootloader?
Thanks, that was the only thing I didnt try. Tried it just now and the bootloader just loaded up. What should I do now? I'm kind of rusty and that its been awhile since I flashed/rooted an android phone.

This happened to my razr maxx last month and even with a factory cable it was toast. Go to droidrazr.com forums and search making your own cable out of a usb cable to jump the phone. Sorts like jumping a cars battery. You will have to take apart your razr though. Another reason i hate this phone doesnt have a removable battery.
It is removable, just not without the case being removed first & why did you create two threads about this?

If you had been paying attention to your own thread you would have noticed that the "Delete" comment was not aimed at the thread.
I posted then changed my mind about it so it was aimed at deleting my own post.
Same thing happend with my razr 2 weeks ago. I tried all things what I found on forums (incl. battery remove -yes, it is very simple- , factory cable, all type of key combinations) but without result. So I gave up and my razr is in repair center now and probably will get new motherboard. I've read somewhere on verizon forum that "rarely, but the cpu itself is crashing" and that could be the reason why the factory cable or battery remove doesn't help. I think this could be same as a damaged BIOS chip in a PC, you can push the power button but PC will not react to that.
If you want , i will buy your phone as it is , with its problem
RAZR Maxx - Verizon Wireless CDMA
I have my settings to vibrate on touch but for some reason it randomly stops vibrating and comes back randomly.
For instance, right now as I write this there is no vibration when I press the keys on the keyboard.
I noticed it after the first time I rooted the phone. After rooting everything was fine. Decided to go back to stock 211 and unroot for the time being. I was using Matts utility and it froze for some reason. It got stuck on writing the webtop part for over an hour so I knew something was not right.
I turned the phone off, closed the utility and started all over again and it went through fine. From since then I've been able to root, flash roms, revert back to stock 211 all using the utility but my vibrations act funny.
I never had the vibrations on touch turned on when I was on gingerbread so I don't know if it's just my phone or if it was the unrooting freeze or what? I never really complained about it but I would like to know if anybody else's phone does this?
try slapping the bottom of your phone against your palm (kevlar against palm) a friends razr did this and that seemed to work, it went awway after a few days
I might sell this phone and roll with something else.

I tried this and it didn't help. The suggestion above (slapping the back of the phone) seems to be working, though. I wonder if my telephone (Razr i) is defective, this started after rooting and unlocking the bootloader. I tried with the GB and EU JellyBean stock ROMS, and I'm currently using this one, all with the same results, does anyone have a similar issue?
I've dealt with two buddies' RAZR phones (Original, and MAXX) and they both have failing vibrator motors. Seems like a hardware design issue. Good thing I went with the Note 2
same issue
motorola razr max
