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.

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.

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

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!

Tonight, for the second time, My droid X2 has died to the point where it wont turn on at all, or charge. Without any warning at all it just dies wont turn on except for the motorola boot logo when plugged into the wall. RSD protocol support says battery is too low to flash. Im not a stranger to this at all, with my previous droid X I had to use a USB chord rigged between the battery and the phone to trick the phone into thinking the battery will charge so that it would SBF, but that method refuses to work with my X2. This is the second time it has died for no reason at all like this. Last time I left it plugged in at the boot screen over night and I assume it charged enough because I could SBF it, so Ill try that again tonight. But I am sick and tired of not being able to simply rely on a rom to not screw my phone up without warning. I could at least solve the problem with my droid X, but I fear Ill be forced to actually purchase a new battery this time just so my phone will turn on even though the battery in it works, but simply wont charge because its dead? Any help would be greatly, greatly appreciated. Thanks

Maybe it's not the rom. Could be you have a bad battery. Try taking the battery out and check the contacts to see if they are dirty. You can use a pencil eraser to clean them off. Don't touch them with your fingers.
If you've had to do this before, it makes me think it could be your phone or the battery. Has it happened before under a different ROM? I've ran with cm7 for weeks and never had an issue. This is the first I've heard of this happening.
Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk
Just connect to your charger, wait 30 mins and try to power on again that happened (srry bad english)
If you still have your X, use that battery. It's my understanding the X and X2 have an almost identical battery.
I've had my battery die twice since being on cm7 both times when I plug in to wall charger it boots to BSR, I select reboot now it boots to cm7 and charges. I'd have to agree with others comments that you my have a faulty battery. Sorry I don't have better info...

This is what has worked for me every time no matter if stock rooted or any other custom rom..... and I do this switching back and fourth between extended and stock battery..... you must be rooted.... atleast i was.
get the battery monitor widget from the market. In the setting you can change the ma rating of the battery you are using. Once you have done that click on stats in the app and it'll clear battery stats. Reboot phone go into app and clear stats again. That should be it. When I had clokworkmod installed on the reboot id clear battery stats in there as well.

I believe it's in the app he mentions. The "wipe battery stats" option is also in the advanced menu of CWM (clockwork mod). If you do not have a custom recovery installed just disregard that part as bootstrap does not have it.

I don't know how to start it.

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.

When I put it on my wireless charger, the charger's green light says it is charging but my phone doesn't seem to respond to anything. I tried holding down Power+volume up+volume down and still nothing. Before it happened i was running official CM10.2 and the crpalmer kernel and everything seemed great. What do ya'll think?

Ouch. At least you have a backup. I'm assuming that you don't have the insurance? I've never had to use it, but as expensive as these things are and the fact that I have 3 children makes me paranoid.

Battery pull
When that happens, the battery usually has to be pulled for it to turn back on. The problem is, the DNA doesn't have a removable, or even easily accessible battery. This same problem happened to me a while back, and the remedy was to pry off the back cover, unscrew the metal plate holding the battery connector to the board, and unplug the connector for about 10 or 15 seconds before reconnecting it. After that, charging LED came on like normal and the phone booted up just fine. It's only happened twice in the last 3 months, and it works every time.
Lesson learned - don't let the battery die!

This it not true. Or atleast where I live it isn't.
It's official. My old DNA is dead. I had it plugged in the following day after it started working again. When I woke up, it was turned off and refused to turn back on. I am not sure what happened. I am guessing the battery shorted out or something like that but who knows? I've since moved on to the HTC One and I'm digging the upgrade

What did you do with your old dna ?
Still got it? I'd like to try to revive it if I can

I still have it. I thought about buying a replacement battery and trying to see if I can take it apart and repair it just for fun.

dcramer67, You would be doing the whole DNA community a favor by selling your old device to Zarboz.
He has done so much for all of us :fingers-crossed:

I think I could part with my old DNA if you could put it to good use
