Have you tried any troubleshoot steps?
Such as fresh sbf download?
(you're not trying to flash the zipped sbf are u lol....I've done that before lol)
Did you unzip with 7 zip?
Reinstall drivers and rsd lite (reboot computer after install)
Oh and by the way. Plenty of people have gone back to 2.3.4 successfully. Including me after I bricked when I hadan install abort of eclipse after using root keeper.

Yup, thanks XD sadly I'm stuck at stock 2.3.4 because eclipse has the wifi bug and liberty and molten have market bugs so :'(

There isn't really a wifi bug on eclipse 2.02
The people that had the issues fixed it by one of these choices:
1. reset wifi router.
2. Turn of QoS in wifi router settings
3. Get a new wifi router lol
I think there is another fix I'm forgetting ATM ....if I think of it I'll let you know

[Q] Help!!! ugrent!!!

I have Bricked my phone edditing system folder permissions...
REGREATED ROOTING EVER SINCE
Any way to fix it its simply the phone keeps rebooting with a red light blinking and the M sign dual core stuck
Ive tried 2 methods but they didnt work!! :'(
Rsd method
and the abd method i didnt fully understand because im still nubbish
sbf should fix this, after flash is complete if it still bootloops your probably using a service sbf so will need to enter android recovery and manually clear data etc. to do this hold volume down while turning on device, then keep pressing it till it says android recovery, press volume up, then you have to tap the bottom right corner to show the options when the android logo appears
Hi all I am in the same boat I followed the briefmobile instructions http://briefmobile.com/download-android-2-3-4-gingerbread-for-motorola-atrix-4g
Tried the Android recovery deleting cash and installing from SD but I keep getting failed authentication (or something like that)
Can anybody help or post a topic that can lead me in the right direction

Also im longing to try the gingerbread atrix leak so do you think you could help me with that?
yes you will still get ota updates
i wouldnt recommend you trying the gingerbread stuff without doing A LOT of reading first, id just wait for it to arrive ota personally rather than risk messing your phone up again
What I don't get is that people edit random things and break their phones. Why did you change the permissions?

UPDATED - [HOW-TO] SBF back to stock Froyo, Update to P3Droids Pre-Rooted GB Update

Follow directions to SBF your phone back to stock Froyo
HERE
After you have followed those directions, THIS IS IMPORTANT PEOPLE, go thru the setup, *228 option 1 and all.
Go ahead and do a factory data reset/wipe your phone from Settings>>Privacy>>Factory Data Reset
After wiping the phone re-root with Gingerbreak and instal Tenfar Lin's Recovery.
Tutorials for rooting and installing recovery as well as additional download links/mirrors can be found in the sticky or here:
Root
Recovery
Place the downloaded GB Pre-Rooted file un the root(top of filesystem/not in any folder) of your externad sd card and rename to "update.zip".
Reboot into recovery thru Tenfar's Bootstrap Recovery app and select "Apply SDCARD : update.zip"
NOTE : It will take a long time, about 15 minutes... EDIT: I dont remember how long it takes with the new prerooted version.... I did this at work yesterday...
Reboot your phone. IT WILL BOOTLOOP!!! EDIT: If it bootloops, pull battery, reboot holding power and volume down, use volume down to scroll to stock/built in recovery, press volume down and up at the same time twice until you get the menu, wipe/factory data reset....
The phone will seem to stall at the eye, but give it time... EDIT: I wasnt watching as I was doing this at work....
Eventually you will be at your home screen and all will be well and rooted in the wonderful world of GingerBread!!
ENJOY!!!

Have you tried a battery pull and reboot? Make sure you don't have any kind of mod at all and if it still doesn't work, SBF back to bone dry stock, wipe, remove/uninstall any and all apps you may still have and try again...

Wow, this first time I tried rsd it called the device 'fastboot' rather than the usual Daytona
I tried again after several battery pulls and got to where it called it Daytona and went ahead and flashed and thank you, it worked.
Even scarier was that I could not boot to use the nandroid backup either! I plugged into the wall outlet without the battery, inserted the battery and still had boot failure 1!!
I thought it was supposed to be possible to sbf back to 2.2? I am stuck in a boot loop now....sigh
great, tried again and notice that my error 7 says error in /sdcard/update.zip <sigh>
back to the same issue I think...
Just so EVERYBODY knows, I got the sdcard error and the bootloop issue and I panicked and SBF-ed again!!! After the second sbf I ran the update one more time and got the installation aborted error and sat at a bootloop for a few minutes... let it work... P3Droid himself said that it will abort, and it will bootloop and take some time. As I stated in the How-To, his instructions aren't very detailed and along with my own issues I decided to write the How-To...
I think I finally got this to work, thanks for the help. I was pondering if it would be better to run over the phone with my car or say I had lost it...

Help! I bricked my Photon!

YET ANOTHER UPDATE 1/9/2012:
MAJOR SUCCESS VIA THE FOLLOWING LINK: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21015556&postcount=6
THIS IS ACTUALLY A US CELLULAR SBF FLASH BUT I SUCCESSFULLY FLASHED THAT FILE TO MY PHOTONSTEIN AND MANAGED TO GET BOOTED ALL THE WAY INTO THE ANDROID/GOOGLE SETUP WIZARD.
NOW I AM ATTEMPTING TO FLASH A SPRINT 198_7 SBF.
UPDATE 1/9/2012:
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A EVO 3D FROM CRAIGSLIST TO REPLACE MY PHOTON. THEREFORE, I WILL KEEP MY PHOTON AS A LAB MOUSE TO TRY TO GET A HEART BEAT BACK INTO IT. THANKS FOR ALL THE EFFORT TO EVERYONE! I WILL KEEP THIS THREAD UPDATED UNTIL I EITHER GET MY "PHOTONSTEIN" WALKING AGAIN OR BURRIED IN THE BONE YARD WHICHEVER COMES FIRST.
UPDATE! I have had successful communication with the photon through android-sdk. I don't however have the correct img file to flash to the phone. Does anyone have any ideas?
Okay, I know I am somewhat of a newbee at this. But I followed all the steps and wound up with a brick. All I get is "Failed to boot 3" then "Starting RSD mode".
I tried flashing the "1FF-sunfire-user-2.3.4-4.5.1A-1_SUN-154_5-CM-release-keys-signed-Sprint-US.sbf" and it fails telling me that it failed to re-enumerate.
Am I screwed or does anyone have a suggestion?
Thanks.

You may also want to reinstall the drivers for your photon. I had the same problem and a quick driver reinstall fixed it.
It appears that I have either damaged or deleted the bootloader. Sprint won't touch it with a 10 foot pole. Does anyone know how to get the bootloader back to the device?
I am able to connect to it with RSD Lite but I can't flash anything.

Are you still getting "starting RSD mode"?
If you are, I think you're safe. I guess you're one of the many of us who flashed 2.3.5 pudding into their Photons. If that's the case you can follow a small tutorial i did here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21015556&postcount=6
Give it a shot and let me know how it goes.
You shouldn't need the bootloader at all actually. I had the same issue with my phone. I had to remove the SIM card and the SD card. Then when you put the battery back in Hold down the Power button and the Volume up button until it says RSD lite mode or something along those lines. Then connect it to your computer and run the RSD lite and select the proper factory ROM that you need to install back on your MOPHO. You will lose root access but your phone should be right back to all of the factory settings. I have done this multiple times to fix error that I got because I am new to Rooting my device and everything as well. I will give you links to where I was able to find some addition support as well.

You can cut the end off of a charger strip the wires red on pos+ black on neg- and plug it in but don't leave it on longer than 20 min at a time cuz battery might over heat
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
I can start the flash process but after a while the following message appears on the screen of the Photon: "sec_exception: b655, eddt, eb".
Then the flas process out and displays the following:
"Failed flashing process. Phone(000): Phone did not re-enumerate after RAM-downloader was sent. (0x703E); phone connected.
Has anyone seen this and recovered from it?
P.S. This is all with or without the SIM card and SD card inserted or removed.

Download RSD Lite and 198_7 SBF from.
http://www.holylivingfuck.com/ACS/SBFs/
You should read this thread on more information about 198_7
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1202666
Make sure you have proper USB drivers for OS 64 or 32 bit installed, install RSD lite and follow the directions below.
Make sure your battery is greater than 50percent before doing any of this.
1) Fire off RSD lite, select the SBF you need 198_7 .
2) Hold down power and vol up till RSD mode comes up
3) Plug into usb then start the flashing sequence.. ( the whole process will take a while)
4) The process is done when RSD lite says manually power up the phone.. You may need to take the back off and pull the battery to restart it incase it doesnt power up on its own.
I wonder if you downloaded an incomplete sbf. Try flash 198-7sbf one more time or see if you can enter android recovery and wipe. Also. Check the motorola driver is installed correctly.

(solved) i bricked my x2 and cant get it to sbf

I have tried to sbf with rsd lite 5.3.1 and every other versions. I also tried with linux and mac and that live sbf disk. I have tried 10 different sbf files. my computer has windows 7 ultimate and ubuntu 11.11. I get a error on rsd lite that says waiting for phone to re-enumerate, and a message on the screen of the x2. It sucks because now I have my htc eris and this phone sitting here.

I got that error too if you are trying to flash a 2.3.5 SBF and your Kernal is 2.3.6. If that is the case you can not go back due to a security issue that Motorola implemented. So you would need to find the 2.3.6 SBF. I would assume that you are putting it into RSD mode on the phone?
it just gets the same thing on the phone as rsd lite and sits there and after 5 minutes it says failed and weird symbols

i have sbfed it before with the milestone x2 2.3.5 sbf and updated it so ill try the 2.3.6 milestone x2 sbf... when i flashed that i lost 3g and wifi. does any know how to get that back
Hmm... I had the same issue but it was because I was trying to sbf back from 2.3.6 to 2.3.5. Now is your phone a Milestone X2 or a Droid x2?
I have you tried putting into recovery mode and clearing out the factories? I know this sounds basic but... sometimes that needs to be done.
Is the computer registering the phone?
Have you tried unistalling the drivers from the computer and reinstall them?
Same thing with RSD.. Have you tried a different version of RSD?
These are the only things I can think of. I hope something helps! Best of luck to you and let me know how it goes.
i got it back up thank u for the kernal stuff. i forgot i flashed it with the milestone x2 sbf so i got it back up. alot of ppl lost 3g but i didnt

Stuck Bricked phone.Can only use Fastboot Flash mode.

Hi all. Im new and I have a problem which I cant seem to fix.
I bricked my phone trying to drop it to stock so that I could get ICS. I had gingerbread at the time.
So when I got it bricked. I googled and tried a bunch of things like Droid razr utility 1.4, 1.7,1.8. I tried them all to restore my phone to the original ,but everytime it doesnt work. I get errors saying stuff like " failed <remote> and it just keeps occuring...
I cant go into recovery mode or anything else, I can only use AP fast boot :\ .
Its really annoying know,I downloaded a bunch of tools and all have not work...the only one I havent used is RSDlite. But im confused about it because Im suppose to download the file its suppose to restore to.But I cant find it...my phone is the motorola droid razr ,and its GSM im pretty sure. I live in Canada :s...and I remember seeing it used asia retail version. So i dont know if that helps...I know it had gingerbread because everytime I had a system update to 6.1.40 or something like that. And it would always fail like 25% through installation...thats why I tried restoring to stock.
....So please help me. Im really stuck and dont know what to do.
Much appreciated.

you can download this fastboot file "673.94.324.XT910.PSHAsiaRetail.en.03" from this forum:
http://www.droidevelopers.com/showt...ia-Retail-amp-ME-Retail-ICS-Firmware-download
Sign up needed though, and flash with RSDlite by following instructions in that thread.

Everytime I try droid uitlity. it does nothing. I get failed remote.....i tried all versions. 1.8,1.7,1.6,1.4-1.142.
Also I should note.I think the reason my phone is bricked is because I tried downgrading but I didnt root my phone...so yea.
Shouldnt matter if you were rooted or not if your going to Fast Boot back. You are using the Utility for GSM and not CDMA?
The instructions to flash back using fastboot are here: http://theunlockr.com/2012/01/24/how-to-restore-the-motorola-droid-razr-using-fastboot-files/ and the fastboot files can be found here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org Just make sure you're using the right file for your carrier, and the md5 matches.
Once you're on stock ICS, you might want to think twice about rooting it. Motorola includes a root checker in the ICS update. I wish I would have realized this before I rooted, since the only thing I really needed was wifi tethering, which you can get on stock, unrooted using FoxFi.
Good luck!
hmmm ill give this a try.this is basically my last resort hopefully it works! il let you guys know how it goes!

I wanna run something by.Im not sure which SBF fastboot file to get...my phone is a GSM im pretty sure because it was XT_910..I live in Canada,but I remember reading something in the " about phone" area saying my version was something like " asiaretail"....any ideas which one would suit my phone?
Okay so next problem...I got rsdlite 5.7 . I tried 3 different versions...the "spyderird_u.01.26.0...sign_asia" didnt pass the first step...and the "fastboot-p2b_spyd....chinaretail " aswell didnt pass the first step....but I tried the "SPDREM_U_01.6.5.1-7..hwp2b._SIGNED" and i got all the way to the 6th step...so im concluding I just have to find the one that takes me through the process fully....any ideas which version would acheive this?
I posted my phone version and info above....ill repost here.
...had gingerbread.bricked. xt910...from canada and i remember it said version 6.15....asia retail."
....http://www.droidevelopers.com/showt...ia-Retail-amp-ME-Retail-ICS-Firmware-download ( the site u provided has the downloads...but i am unsure if I download the PSH ASIA RETAIL...Or just the ASIA RETAIL.."
The previous fastboot i gave u can be used. Just make sure your batt is full this time round.

The files on http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_spyder/list.php are listed according to carrier. Did you try the file that's specified for your carrier?
