Cyanogen 7 issues - phone won't get past boot animation - Motorola Droid X2

I recently tried installing cyanogen 7. I followed the steps of the tutorial from the development forum very closely, including the bootstrapping tutorial / sbf tutorial. Everything seemed to work well at first. Booted up into cyanogen, installed patched bootstrap recovery, etc. Then I rebooted my phone, and now it won't get past the cyanogen booting screen. I'm not sure what I should do now. I am unfamiliar with how to recover or reflash an sbf. Googling has not helped me at all.
I am a bit of an amateur with roms, but I have been rooted for a while and figured I was safe seeing as though I made backups of everything. Any idea what I can do from here? I am unsure how to actually recover any of the backups I made, much less make it past this boot animation.

Pull your battery, plug your phone into a wall charger and boot into bsr. Wipe cache, dalvik, and data (you will lose apps, data, and personal settings).

Pull your battery, put it back in then press down Volume and power at the same time. When it says fastboot scroll down to android recovery and press up volume. When you get triangle press up and down simultaneously. Now wipe data and cache.

Try post #2 first. Pull battery put it back in do not turn on phone and plug in wallcharger and plug it in. That should take you straight to bsr and wipe dalvik in both places.

Help with Liberty Rom

Hello, new here on XDA and hoping to be an established member here!
Im just startin out with roms and rooting. I trierd to install the liberty rom and its not working i dont think....
- i installed system recovery
- did a backup
- went through the rom toolbox and downloaded the liberty zip
- went through system recovery and installed liberty from the SD card.
- it went through successfully
now im stuck on a screen with the liberty bird spinning, the words liberty rom above it and it goes black every 3-5 seconds.
am i stuck? is it going through a process of some kind? it does this whether im plugged into the wall or not.
I just pulled the battery and i got the red M dual core logo, it went back to that liberty screen and is doing the same thing. I cant do anything!!!!
just some additional info for any help that may come my way....
i was on 2.3.4 before i flashed
I cant think of any other relevant info ppl might need. this is my only phone though, so im hurtin right now lol
Sounds like you are in a boot loop. Another important step you should have done before you rebooted out of recovery is to do the following:
1) Wipe the data
2) Wipe the cache
3) Wipe the dalvik cache
You can still salvage what you did. You need to pull the battery out. Then, put the battery in. After that, press and hold the power button AND the Volume Down button. Do this until you see words appear on the screen at the top.
Next, click the volume down button until you see Android Recovery.
Click the Volume Up button.
Wait a bit and you should then see the familiar Droid Icon with an exclamation point. When you get there, press both the Up and Down volume buttons at the same time to continue into recovery mode.
After that, you will be in the stock recovery. Click the volume down button to select the Wipe Data/Factory Reset and press the power button.
Once that's done, you can then select the Reboot System Now menu item and you should be good to go.
Remember, you should ALWAYS wipe the data, cache and Dalvik when flashing a new ROM to ensure left over files are lying around causing the dreaded boot loop you are experiencing.
I just tried it.
Im stuck on the liberty rom screen, but i read that it could take 10mins to boot up the first time. the screen isnt going black like it was before so I think im in the clear.
Im late for work now! hahaha
thank you so much though. This forum is a wonderful resource and the people seem really nice so far!
ill be sure to check for a thank you button after this post!

You may need to sbf if you cannot get back to the boot strap recovery screen.
Pull the battery and put the battery back in but do not power it on. Instead plug your phone into the charger if it goes into bootstrap recovery then wipe data, wipe chache then go to advanced and wipe dalvik cahce. reflash liberty and youll be good to go. If it doesn't youll have to sbf back to stock then try again. This time wipe data cache and dalvik and youll be ok. SBFing is easy and there is a tutorial the general section. If you have any questions on sbfing just put them here and myself or one of the other great community members will help you out.

Ugh, issues!

Alright, I was running CM9 v13 until last night, but needed my camera for work(nothing portrays an accident scene better than a picture!), so I decided to reflash 198.7. Something terribly went wrong.
Read so many different threads and flashed so many different sbf's my head is spinning. I do know that when I power up and press up I get RSD, and if I power up and press down I can go through the menu. I even tried fastboot and attempted to follow some of these steps with fastboot. http://www.atrixforums.com/forum/rescue-squad/5358-alien-install-gone-bad-bricked-recovered-still-screwed-up-4.html
I am thinking that the bootloader isn't fried since I can get into the menu system, but even after flashing 198.7 if it doesn't fail it cycles through the never ending bootloop. When it does fail I get the following error on the device screen: SVF:106:1:2 sec_exception:b655, eddc, eb
Luckily I have seen Gman floating around here, so since he assisted big time with the atrix issue, I am hoping that he can assist me.
I don't have skype though...
I will have internet access tomorrow, but can't install anything to my work computer(toughbook, locked down like a fiend!)
Ideas? Not looking for a beatdown. Asking for help, from the community.
EDIT: Just saw this. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394982For some odd reason I think this is what I did. Now it appears as though I am royally screwed!
Thank you,
Medic
You didn't have a nandroid backup of a blur rom you could have used? That would have been better than sbfing back to stock.

When I got stuck in moto logo loop with no backup available I had to boot into recovery and factory reset then reboot. If you can use menu with power + down. On 154 sbf, then flashed 198.7 after booting again
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
You need to factory reset or wipe before flashing a sbf. However all you need to do to get a camera is flash a blur rom like skinny or rocko, or even cm7. When you're done you can wipe and flash back. I do it all the time

Grrr, I must have flashed the Electrify ROM. It boots into it, but has to make the phone call to activate. Can't bypass it. The Electrify has a locked bootloader?
Fastboot, RSD, and ASR work, or at least I can access them. Tried wiping date/factory reset, but it boots back into the Electrify ROM.
Not thinking my local rep will be able to help me out on this one!
Any other ideas?
Edit* Bypassed using the no bp option. Unable to root using Shabby's aio. Goes through the process, reboots, but when I attempt to launch system recovery it reminds me that I don't have root privs.
jokersax, why in your post for CM9 do you tell people that if they want to switch off of CM9 they have to sbf? I've nandroid'ed back without problems to stock, and it's a lot safer than flashing sbf's since everyone seems to temporarily brick.
it actually say just to wipe and flash a different rom. The sbf is to return to stock

I had a similar issue. Unlocking the boot loader I used the Sbf for the Electrify by mistake and not the Pudding.sbf. Only it bricked my phone sticking it on the moto bootup and just giving me some errors and going nowhere from their. Now I'm just spit balling here, but I have a prediction on how you can fix, do some research to make sure this may work and not brick your phone:
1) Unlock your bootloader using Pudding.sbf
2) Use Bootstrap to Install CWM for Photon
3) goto the mounts and storage menu select format system
4) Once that finishes go back and select wipe data/factory reset and then wipe dalvik cache and cache partition
5) After wiped go to the advanced menu select reboot recovery
6) Once it goes back to recovery Power off
7) Go into RSD (hold power nd Volume up+)
8) Flash the stock sbf
9) boot up
10) I would recommend using Sdk tools Fastboot command -W to erase all user data and cache after everything if it boots up
I would assume this would do the trick, the only thing I'm uncertain of is if you'll be able to unlock. (If it goes through a long method then says failed right at the end then it probably worked) If it doesn't work you can continue the rest of the steps using bootstrap, but If it were me I would want to try to get as much Photon on the phone and Electrify off the phone as possible

This is obvious, but I have to ask, did you do a battery pull and let it sit for a couple seconds and then try to reboot? also it's stuck on mogo, is it showing error 2,3 or 4? Or any error for that matter?
Did a few battery pulls.
No error, just the Moto Dual Core Screen.
I contacted one of my friends who is a rep, and he will strip the phone, and exchange it. Helps that his boss has a Mopho and he is getting one in a few days.
Thank you for the help FanBoy_Hunter. Greatly appreciated.
I pick up my new mopho tomorrow.
I am going to leave it stock(sigh).
Was not going to reactivate my crackberry.
Grrrr!

[Q]I believe I have just soft bricked my phone. Please help!

I am on 2.3.4, and the phone randomly rebooted. But when it got the part after it vibrates, it rebooted back to where it said "droid" and started a never ending loop. I have tried sbfing to 2.3.4 again, but rsd lite sayss I have to manually reboot my phone. I can boot to where it says "fastboot" in white.
Edit: RSD lite now says that the phone has finished sbfing, but the bootloop still persists.
Sometimes you can get stuck in a bootloop after SBF'ing. Two things you could do would be to pull the battery and then just try restarting. Another thing you could do would be to boot into Android Recovery (same way you get into RSD) and just wipe the Data/cache.

What happens when I wipe data/cache?

Wiping cache just clears out files used to open/run apps quicker. These files are rebuilt the first time you use the app. This one is no big deal and I wipe mine periodically just to "clean house."
Wiping data doesn't clean house, it remodels it. It sets everything back to factory (like "out of box" after an sbf). You will lose your data, apps, personal settings, etc. It does not touch your sdcard, though.
only way to get out of bootloop after sbf is to go to Android recovery and wipe data
it will put your phone back to what it was when you bought it i.e."out of box condition"
data wipe deleted all user data
I have that problem occasionally as well. I usually go into recovery and wipe cache but not user data, that gets me into the phone, but it will reboot 30 seconds after you get in, so then use BSR to clear Dalvik. If you cannot clear Dalvik you will probably need to wipe the user data, which resets the phone to factory defaults.
Power it up like this:
Hold 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 triangle with the exclamation point and the Android.
At this point press volume up and down simultaneously again and select the cache clearing option by using volume down, then pressing the power button to select. Don't wipe user data just yet. Try to reboot once it is complete (You will see it on the screen) and see if you can get back into your phone. If you can, I recommend wiping Dalvik as well to be safe.
You can wipe Dalvik with Titanium Backup Pro, but the easiest way is to install BSR (Boot Strap Recovery)

Goodbye
Thank you for proving you are superior Ash. I will try to avoid helping folks in the future. You are a winner.
As for the SBF, I posted to him how to use the stock recovery to clear his cache, hoping that it will get him back into his phone, where he can then root and install BSR. By the way, it tried, at least I posted instructions and links as well. Where are yours?
I fear he is going to need to clear user data, but I was trying to help him avoid that since it is tedious to re-install everything, unless you have a backup. By the way, there is no difference between pressing the volume up alone and pressing both. I have done both and posted what I think is most easy.
Since I did it SO wrong according to you however, I will refrain from advice in the future and leave it all up to you.
Nevermind....people read to.much into ****...goodbye
That's what I get for trying to help...
No, what you did was to confuse the issue and the thread with your need to show you are superior, without reading my entire post.
Since it works the same BOTH ways, either pressing volume up alone or pressing both, and since I specifically posted a method that might get him back into his phone without wiping all user data, from experience with the same issue, there was no need for your post other than to show you think you are superior in some way.
It's not a contest 'buddy', it's trying to help fellow users.

Ash you have spit a lot of knowledge my way and have saved my butt many times. You have always been credible and I never second guess your comments. Don't stop helping so many for someone talking. We trust you ash. I just gave the same instructions to someone else about bootloop and SBF. I told him factory reset in android recovery. Works for me perfect every time! And I do not mind rooting and setting my phone back up.

[Q] Help - trying to go to CM7 - stuck at "Dual Core" screen

First of all, THANK you for making progress on freeing our phones!
I have read every thread I can find on this, but I cannot find an answer to my specific problem.
I will try to make this brief.
Now onto my problem.
I am on Gingerbread 2.3.4
I tried yesterday to go to CM7
I followed the directions posted here.
I get to step 12 on the " HowTo: Perform a bootstrap (or nandroid) backup and recovery of your Motorola Droid X2" where I am tapping recovery mode and the phone reboots - but when plugged into a wall charger, I get stuck at the dreaded dual core screen.
Since this happened, I have went into my ASR and selected wipe cache, wipe partition and also did the factory data reset while the phone was booted up.
Even in this state, which should be reset to factory if I understand this correctly - when I plug into a wall outlet, it still will not boot past the dual core screen.
Any ideas?
One question I have is, how do I wipe davilik cache?
Please help!!
Reinstall dx2bsr.apk Run it. Install recovery. Set recovery mode. Flash cm7 Then wipe all 3. Then while still in cwr flash ReRecoverydx2.cm7..... see my sigy link.

to wipe dalvik cache you go into advanced and then scroll down to dalvik cache and then if you want wipe battery stats. That should work out of it all. If anything, sbf back to 2.3.4, root, and then retry with the OG bootstrap and see where that takes you
No matter what I do, various combinations of putting the stock bootstrap back in, it will not reboot while plugged in. It freezes on the dual core screen.
I have done a full wipe, it still will not boot while on AC.
Ideas?
You are trying to boot What Rom???
If you have already flashed cm7 you MUST allow it to boot ( do a stock recovery wipe if needed-stuck @ m) then install cm7bsr.apk.

are you running the bootstrap while plugged in? try untethering it, running BSR then plugging it in when your phone turns off.
What I want to accomplish is running CM7.
I am currently running 2.3.4.
This is so frustrating!

sorry, bro, are you booting into the bootstrap (BSR) while you're plugged into the wall outlet? If you are try to run BSR while not plugged into <the wall> and then once the phone shuts off [black screen] plug it in and then see if it boots into BSR.
You can boot to blur 234.
reinstall our old bsr and get it working.
This should get you to cwr.
---------- Post added at 10:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------
Then flash cm7 and gapps then wipe all three than flash rerecovery.cm7
I would suggest SBFing back to stock 2.3.4 blur and then follow the steps in the OP for cm7. Seems your very setup is very screwed up at this point. Sometimes it is just easier and faster to do a quick SBF and start over. Just my two cents
Well through some combination of things, it looks like I am magically in CM7.
Thanks all!

May have jacked my phone up....

I was curious to see how ICS worked so I finally gave in and flashed Black Widow ROM. I followed this exact instructions:
Requirements:
•Android Version 2.3.6 (6.12.17x - 6.12.181)
•Safestrap 1.09 or Bootstrap v2 (safestrap 1.07 will not work)
•Download and move zip/s to sdcard-ext
•Reboot into Recovery
•Create a Backup! (dont say i didnt warn you)
•YOU MUST Wipe Data/Factory Reset
•Wipe Cache partition
•(in Advanced) Wipe Dalvik cache
•(in Mounts and Storages) Format System
•Install zip from sdcard
•Flash ROM (do not flash Gapps or DarkGapps)
•Reboot System now
This isn't my first time using Bootstrap. I flashed many ROMs using it on my D2. It installed and then I rebooted. Now it sits on the screen with Motorola symbol with Dual Core Technogoly. I did make a backup but I'd really like to use this ROM before reverting back. Any suggestions?

If it's stuck at the M logo you'll probably have to RSDLite back to GB. Remember, that M logo can be there for up to 5 to 6 minutes on the first boot, if that's not applicable then fastboot that bad larry back! (I got to be VERY proficient at flashing back, let me know if you need help)
Is there anyway I can get my phone in working order without having to RSD back to GB? I don't understand why it didn't work when I follow the instructions and I have experience in flashing.

I haven't really messed with Safestrap or bootstrap that much, I tend to just run one OS. The problem is that you can't even get to the start up screen for those. Simple when you think about it, right now (if i understand correctly) you're stuck at the M, which leaves you only 1 possible way out of that screen and that's to send it to recovery which will only wipe or RSD your phone.
Anyone else think of any other options that he has or experience with this ROM??
Yea I went to stock recovery to wipe data/cache just to see what happened. Of course that didn't do anything. In order to RSD, what screen do I need to be on? I assume the screen its frozen on will not be the screen I need.

You'll need to hold down both Vol buttons when you power it up then go to AP Fastboot. Do you need a link to the tutorial? You can YouTube RSDLite DROID RAZR and should get plenty. Let me know if you need any additional info.

I think I can figure the rest out. That's all I really needed to know. Thanks!
Also MAKE SURE you're at at least 50% battery!!
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA
Not sure how I can check this....phone was on 66% before ROM install but screen is stuck on and I don't know how to power off phone. Battery is draining but more than likely slowly.
This was a previous post on another thread and from what I understand it works:
"Try following Steps:
Boot in AP Fastboot > Connect your Wall Charger > Press Power
If you're a lucky your RazR will pass the red M and jump into the Battery Screen.
If your system is broken, you have to order an Factory Cable. With this you can flash the correct system signed or use the modded Utility for CDMA Leaks, to get your Phone back to life."
When they say "Factory Cable" is this not just a USB cable?
Nope. Its different from what i understand. Thanks for reminding me to get one on eBay before all the ICS madness starts. Lol.
I mean you can risk it but I've never had to mess with it as I'm almost always above 70% so I'm kinda out of the loop on that problem.

You just need to get to the AP fastboot screen then flash it. I think you'll be okay to flash. I've seen people do it with 40%. Just make sure as soon as it boots you put that puppy on the charger.
Should take about 15-20 mins. If you're gonna do it, best to do it sooner rather than later.

I don't even know if I can get to that AP Fastboot screen. When I try it, it does nothing and goes back to my Motorola screen. I'm about to be off work so I can see what happens when I have a laptop around.
Yeah you're gonna need the laptop. Also, when you select AP fastboot you'll want to hit the vol+ button to select it. Hitting the power button just restarts the phone. Vol+ = Enter. That's probably what you did the first time.

Indeed it is. Maybe I can try the charger now.
Yeah, its like learning a foreign language sometimes but with only 3 physical buttons they have to make do. Lol!

Not sure how I can check this....phone was on 66% before ROM install but screen is stuck on and I don't know how to power off phone. Battery is draining but more than likely slowly.

Hold the power button and volume down to force a hardware reboot.

It's actually Power button + volume up and down and yes I've done this.
