I've been trying to get CM7 on my X2 unsuccessfully for about two hours, here's the process I took.
I saved all my stuff, and erased everything on the phone using the Android Recovery. I went back to 2.3.4 using RSDlite, then Root using Pete's Tool and installed OTA Protect. I then installed Bootstrap, installed recovery, went to recovery mode, installed CM7, and then GAPPs. Now, I wipe data, clear the cache, clear the davlik cache, and reboot. Now, this is where I just get stuck at the M Dual Core Technology Screen.
I searched the forum for answers, but I couldn't really my problem. It seems CM7 just isn't booting for me. I have tried this 2-3 times already, please help me out!
Why did you install ota protect? And make sure you are properly rooted and that the sbf worked... check your about phone screen to make sure... all I know is to sbf again and start from the beginning.
Edit: also did you install the patched bsr.apk for cm7?

I've had to sbf more thwn once to get my X2 to get up and running. I would say to try and sbf again and instal the patched CM7 BSR. If u have any other questions, u can always pm me and ill do my best to help u outout
STEEL BLUE CM9X2
SBF 2.3.4
Root phone
Install regular BSR
Flash CM and Gapps
Wipe data (not cache DATA)
Boot CM
Load BSR for CM7
You CAN NOT boot CM with regular BSR loaded , hence the wipe Data before booting.

Might have been a bad download. Try and get it again.
You have any other info such as what ROM and/or theme you're trying to flash when you get this? What version of eclipse? You're using the Tenfar bsr? Is it everything you try to flash? May be a bad d/l add L2 said, more info, more help.

I am on eclipse 8.1 and it doesn't matter what I try to flash even stuff I have flashed in the past(I had an old copy of alien on my sd card which I have flashed before.) Even reflashing eclipse won't work. Is it looking like I get to learn how to sbf?
Edit: and what is the tenfar bsr?
Tapped on my Eclipse DROID x2
Try uninstalling bsr, reboot, and install the app and recovery.
Edit: Tenfar bsr is the typical system recovery app we all use. Just wanted to be clear.

Ahh it stands for recovery will do. Well I can't install it, it came preinstalled and fails with the stock uninstaller there has to be another way though.

How strange is that its working again I wonder what happened.

After you reinstalled? Who knows man. Glad u got it fixed. You should add "[solved] syntax error when flashin" to the title so others can use it as a reference should they have flashing issues.
Edit: just seen your update to your previous post. Yea, it's a system app. Forgot. You remove those with either tibu or a file explorer w/ root access, i.e. Root Explorer. They're located in /system/app I believe.

Did u have usb debugging turned off?
I always thought it had to be on in order for bsr to work correctly
Glad its up and going for ya again. Would be nice if we knew what fixed it in case others run into the problem
I didn't do anything just started working

My friend found the way to root OTA .629!
Make sure your phone working on .629,
1.Flash repacked .608 sbf
http://db.tt/xj6oos8G
(Never Try Full .608 SBF !!!)
2 .Download tool PetesMotorolaRootTools or SuperOneClick extract all and run.(Just like rooting .608）
Note : - FIRST - Please Enable USB Debugging , Then connect cable for usb type Charge only
3.Install app otarootkeeper(Can be found in Play Store,it's free),backup su, unroot.
4.Reboot to Motorola Recovery, Wipe, apply .629 OTA update.zip,reboot.
5.install otarootkeeper app again,restore su
Check your device, it should rooted
ATTENTION: Reapply .629 update is very important, when you flashed our repacked .608 sbf, your device is working on a unstable hybrid rom
Here's where my friend posted:

Failed for me... First flash failed, everything else has followed that... Unable to root with SuperOneClick, reflashing with upadet.zip hasn't give any different output...
Oh, yes, Droid works, as I haven't done anything...
Are you sure you follow all step?

This works great, I was enable to flash the file unisng RSD Lite and after that root using zergrush without any problem. Only slight problem it that wi-fi dont work at the moment but will update when i flash it back to .629 .

Yes, no help from it... still the same problem.
UPDATE: For all with some sort of problems (!), blindly follow guide from link, for RESTORING device... apply 608, apply repacked 629, (IMPORTANT) full wipe in recovery, root, unroot, flash update, re-root. Works like a charm, all radios are full to go!
Any roms work with this? I tried cm7 and got stuck at red m screen. Had to start all over. Anyone have sucess with a rom after on rooted 629?
Edit: cm9 worked after using droid 2 bootstrap.

Now, rooted, I'm finally able to delete all those stupid Verizon bloatware (I'm not on Verizon, even more, I CAN'T use Verizon, I'm not in U.S.!) - got around 10-15% on speed (some things apparently are in startup and slowing the phone down).
Other thing, before this update, I had some minor and occasional problems with touch - like ghosts or something, after unlocking touch started to do weird stuff, opening apps by it-self, moving icons across the screen - no more, it works great (for now). This might be because of fresh and full install and wipe (yes, it's a hassle to do it, to install all apps again, set them up... but, it's kinda good solution...).
Enjoy yourself

Dont panic its revertable.
Did you make all the necessary wipes?
Try booting in CWM and wipe your system, then install .zip again.
Also, flash twice the first time. or you might need the .3.1 beta from the fixes thread first.

Try This!
try flashing the newest version from jokersax.com. I take no credit for this and all goes to Jokersax the developer. I also love the miui rom which is what i use now.
Can anybody say detailed steps about cm9 installation which you already did.....? Pls
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
The way joker has it laid out in the op always works for me.
Root, unlock, flash cwm. (I use twrp)
Flash beta 0.3.1 from fixes thread
boot phone, check for signal
All good reboot recovery and flash latest with joker gapps 9 then 12.
Profit from the mad genius that is joker

WIPE DATA,CACHE,SYSTEM. DO IT TWICE IF NECESSARY. FLASH ROM. FLASH GAPPS. DO IT TWICE IF NECESSARY. GET FORCE CLOSE ON BOOT? FLASH 0.3.1. BOOT UP. THEN GO BACK AND FLASH THE NEWEST WITH GAPPS. DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING!
DONE.
if this does not work. there's some sort of user error. remember wipe wipe wipe.
Hello all,
I recently rooted my Motorola Droid RAZR & made a backup of the stock rom with root that I'd had. I played around with a few roms and now I want to flash back to the backup that I originially made.
I've now restored the device to the original ROM. When I reboot the system, it gives me the SafeStrap option & I hit the Search Button to continue to boot the ROM. At this point, the screen stays black & nothing happens.
What should I do? RSDLite?
Thanks everyone,
Austin
I need help too
Sent from my DROID RAZR using xda app-developers app
i think the better way is to flash stock with rsdlite, clear data\cache in stock recovery, then boot normally, install safestrap again and restore your backed up rom
yeah same problem......I really don't think you can restore back to stock
Sent from my XT912
Yeah I eventually had to just RSDLite the thing, it wasn't too painful.
Were can I get the files u used to restore can u share them here

Hello xda Forums,
I was messing around with themes in ADW.Launcher on my Droid X2 Running CM7 and the theme was corrupt and crashed my phone. My phone boots up fine, but the minute i unlock my phone i get a error saying "ADW.launcher has stopped unexpectedly. I can't access setting to fix this. I can only access my drop down with GPS, BATTERY, VIBERATION icons, and connect my phone to USB. I also can't access clock work mod to wipe/devik cache, and factory reset. When i plug my phone into a charger from the wall my phone wont boot up clock workMod. I can't access clockwork mod any other way. I can access Android Recovery and Wipe cache or Factory reset, but i was goign to ask what is the best way to fix this problem? I don't want to factory reset just yet in case that will mess the phone up more..
Please help! I am running out of ideas. I was thinking of install another launcher manually Via usb, so i can at least get into my phone.
you might be able install a different launcher, from pc with play store

Hey man,
I installed bootstrap recovery and opened it up and it said it install correctly. I rebooted my phone and it was stuck at the CM7 loading screen. I can't get into Clockwork mod recovery, so i booted into Android recovery and wipe the cache. Now i am stuck on the red Motorola screen with a non-bootable phone. I am not sure what to do right now?
I only have two options in Android recovery
-Wipe data/factory reset
-Wipe cache
- load from update which i do have Cm7 backup, but i am not sure that will load correctly?
What should i do at this point. I am just trying to load my phone back up normally in my CM7 rom.

Thanks i did that and it seems to be working fine! .. I was using the CM7 rom can you recommend an another good stable rom like CM7 that has no missing features compared to the stock rom. I picked cm7 because i didn't loose to many features from the stock rom. CM9 and CM10 looks like i can't use some features if i flash these roms. I am looking for a good stable rom that I wont loose to many features from my phone. I was looking at eclipse, but never tried it.
cm7 and eclipse are the only really stable roms for the dx2
if you want eclipse 2.3, phone base needs to be updated to stock 2.3.5, or you can try eclipse 1.3 on 2.3.4 base
