[Q]Solved!!!! *** Please Help *** RSD Fails - SBF Fails - Motorola Droid X2

When attempting to SBF to upgrade to Cyanogen 10 A2 something went wrong.
Ive tried several versions of RSD Lite and several SBF Files.
Currently I am using RSD Lite 5.7 with the 2.3.4 SBF File
This is the error message on the phone
Download code Started...
rsd mode...
Partition Tables did not match: Backup PDS and repartion memory...
ERR: hardware/tegra/prebuild/make/../../core/system/rdl/rdl_main .c: 492 StartPartionConfigurion( 25 ): 3
When booting up i get the message Failed to boot 4 -
The phone then automaticlly starts up RSD mode
When holding the volume down or up key while powering on nothing happens... no fast boot and no recovery.
So any advise would be much appreciated. Ive found a few other posts that people have have similar issues but none exactly the same.
Im interested in any advice on which RSD lite version.. which SBF file... and anything else.
Until I get some help my next thing will be to try to SBF using linux.
And obviously Id like some help with repartioning the internal phone memory, it does the same thing whether the phone has the sd card in it or not.
Solved!!!
Apparently the partitions got screwed up so that when rsd tried to write the sbf to the phone it couldnt.
After MUCH time messing with it i discovered if I held volume up while booting even though it would still stay "failed to boot 4" I could get into fastboot mode
using ADB commands in a terminal I flashed a boot.img file that i extracted from an update.zip file i found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1703640
from there it let me get into recovery and then the sbf worked

What version were you running before you tried to SBF?

---

Pull your battery and leave it out for a few minutes. Put it back in and hold volume up and then hold power. When the screen turns on release power but continue holding volume up until starting rsd appears... still nothing?

If you can get that fr try a diff version of RSD Lite.

Also make sure your SBF file is good. I've used these https://sites.google.com/site/motosbf/droid-x2-sbf-files and have never had any problems.

possibly a pad SBF file?
I'm new to this, but I experienced a similar issue this morning.
What ended up fixing the issue for me was downloading a fresh SBF file for 2.3.4. I had a copy of 2.3.4 from when I did the original SBF from 2.3.5 that I figured would work, but something had gone bad with the file. I went here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1317707 and downloaded the 2.3.4 again. That seemed to have fixed me up.
I've also had to run RSD Lite "as administrator" in Win 7 before as well.
I hope this helps

Thanks for the Replies.. I tried another SBF file from the link suggest but it does the same thing.. RSDlite says Phone[0000]-Interface AP-OS: Flashing Code Group 3 but stays on Executed 2% forever and the phone has the same message I originally posted about the Partition Tables not matching...
When I hold The volume up or down while i boot up nothing happens like its supposed to
I was running Cyanogen 10 A1 before this issue.
Does anyone have any idea how to repartition the memory, from the little ive been able to find on it it sounds like ill need to use gparted in linux.. i just havnt tried it yet.

Just to check, are you using a Verizon Droid X2? Or a Milestone X2?

Ok. Well do you have the right drivers? What kind of computer do you have? 32 bit or 64 bit? And do you have the right motorola drivers for your computer?
Sorry, I'm going back to square one just to make sure you have EVERYTHING.

ive tried it from both my desktop running windows 7 and laptop running windows vista and i booted my laptop into ubuntu and I tried the X2 SBF disk which is basically the same as doing an SBF in linux. All with the same result.
So Im pretty sure that the issue is the memory with the phone since it gives that message saying i need to repartition the phone.
In the linux terminal the phone does show up using the list usb devices and RSD lite does detect it so i think there is still some hope. But its worrisome that I cannot find ANYTHING online about redoing the partitions. But the message its gives me makes it sound like its something thats doable.

Im no developer or anything. But from what I understand, an SBF is basically just flashing an image to your device. Wether the device is low on memory shouldn't have an effect on it. It should wipe everything and start fresh. Its like taking a blank hard drive and installing Ubuntu on it. Thats how I view it anyways. I know nothing about partitioning the device. Sounds to me like a way to mess up the phone even more unless you know what you are doing. The best thing I can say is just make sure you really do have the right stuff. The right SBF file, the right RSD lite version, the right motorola drivers installed and start again. Maybe try windows XP if you have access to a computer with it on it.
EDIT: Actually I just did it on a Windows 7 computer last week and it worked fine so I dont know.

It shouldn't matter, but try a 2.3.5 sbf?
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda app-developers app

---

So I discovered if I power on while holding the up button the phone still says failed to boot 4 but then it starts fastboot support.
IN adb using "fastboot device" the phone does show up and I can send commands to it.
i found a post about manually flashing a recovery.img but i cant find one for the x2
anybody have any ideas?

Solved!!!
Apparently the partitions got screwed up so that when rsd tried to write the sbf to the phone it couldnt.
