I installed the drivers successfully on my computer, enabled debugging (charge only), unknown sources and when I run the batch file I get that screen. I just did a factory restore and have 4.30GB free of internal storage and 1.78GB free for application storage.
Why is it saying I don't have enough space?

Do I have to have a microSD card in for this to work? This is the guide I followed and it doesn't say anything about a microSD card - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315711
I am noticing the error says that it is trying to copy to a read-only system so that is what got me to thinking about an SD card.
which version are you trying to root?

Ok I followed the "DX2Batchroot_2013.exe" and it seemed to work. I can get into recovery and choose "apply update from sdcard" and choose "X2-Eclipse-v2.3.zip" I put on the sdcard and then I get the following:

Ok installed Root Explorer, Boat Browser, Droid X2 Boostrap APK and installed it and it says successful. Click "Recovery Mode", tells me it has been granted superuser permission and reboots ... and instead of a reboot it just powers down I guess. I hold in the powerbutton for a couple seconds and it boots back into desktop. What do I do to get it to load recovery so I can install eclipse?

So the thing you are missing is that after the phone powers down, plug the phone charger in ( using the wall wart, not a computer or anything else, the wall wart ). When you plug it in, it will automagically boot into the BSR. From there you can whipe data, cache, and using advanced options, the Dalvik cache. Then install zip from SD card.
A few minutes later, you have the new ROM ( Eclipse right?). I just did it last night, and it worked great. ( I did have a down level Play Store not upgrade that caused problems, but I re-did the wide data.... and rebooted great).
That is a great ROM, makes my phone FAST.
EDIT: OOPS, I see the OP has it working.

I deleted apps using TitaniumBackup, I think that's what broke it. I was rooted, but I did an unroot in superuser before trying to install the update.
I just started a factory wipe for starters. Guess I'll need to recover an exact stock configuration, which is .181 right?

Yes removing Bloat is known to break updates, like said before use matts DroidRazrUtility 1.6 to fastboot back to .181 then root and install voodoo OTA using the utility then in voodoo, backup root and temp unroot, then OTA, then open voodoo and restore root, and you'll be laughing.:laugh::laugh::laugh:
I keep getting a failed install and i didnt delete any bloat apps
I was rooted and managed to keep root and install OTA successfully... didn't lose anything or use any apps to keep root or anything like that no idea how it happened.

If you have Bootstrap or Safestrap open that app in your app drawer and use the uninstall feature. then make sure you have your temp unroot enabled and run the update.... I just figured it out...
(UPDATE)
Just finished installing up update, rebooted (took a while) into ICS. Nice new lock screen, root restored.

I have my Droid Razr Maxx Rooted with Stock ROM no removed bloat just frozen using TB. Unfroze all apps and tried to accept the OTA and I keep getting "install failed." I do not have the Safestrap app installed. I tried using MattsTool v 1.7 ICS to side load as mentioned by a few people, but I cannot get the drivers to install correctly. I've tried directly from Moto, the drivers provided in various tuts but not luck. When I go to go through the process I get hung up on "waiting on device". I am using MAC but going through WIN using parallels.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks..
if it fails anyway to go to the install and start from there? where is it at?

Hey guys, been awhile since I've been on XDA.
Rode the iOS bus for awhile.
Long story short I went and bought a i-777 earlier today and I did a factory reset via the settings menu then proceeded to do a hard reset to clean the phone out.
I pressed and held the volume down button and pressed and released the power button. A warning about a custom OS popped up and I proceeded and it took me into a screen that said "Odin" at the very top.

You about phone screen looks like the phone has stock Gingerbread installed. UCKK6 was the update version. The phone originally shipped with UCKH7. Yours may have been updated over the air, or later models were shipped with UCKK6.
I've never heard of the button configuration that you describe for this phone. I tried doing the same thing, holding down vol- and short press the power button, but the phone just booted normally. But then I am running a custom ICS rom.
Boot the phone into download mode: with the phone off, hold both volume buttons, but not power, and plug in the usb cable. When you get the warning screen, use the volume up button to go to the download screen. Look at the flash counter information at the top of the screen. That will tell you if the phone has been modified. (Unless they followed my guide on flashing custom firmware without incrementing the flash counter, lol.)
Even if the phone has been modified, that doesn't necessarily mean it has been damaged.
"Odin Mode

Is what I'm looking at, then it has Andy and "downloading....do not turn off target!!"

Downloading their "unroot" tar now to flash in Odin, which should put me back on 2.3.4 which I beleive the original root method was designed for.
Once back on 2.3.4 im going to try and re-root and see how it goes from there, hopefully I can resolve this with out going through extreme mesaures. See kids, this is perfect example of "I didnt take my time to read and reseach before I started pushing buttons." LOL

Yes, zedomax kernel screws over a lot of people. Wish there were some way to warn unsuspecting folks. Actually, the zedomax unroot causes more problems than the rooting kernel.
Glad you've got everything going. Now, just read a few minutes every day, and before long, you'll be up to speed.
Well glad I didn't unroot then. Lol
Got cm7 running like the old days, used to have a aria, captivate, inspire and nexus s. Feels good to be back.

Major newbie here, so i've gotten up to step 4. but I'm stuck at that.
Q: How do I install Eclipse?
1. sbf to 234
2. Root using MotorolaOneclick
3. Install Voodoo OTA rootkeeper and protect root but temp unroot
4. Apply 235 update in stock recovery
5. Restore root in Voodoo rootkeeper and delete backup (make sure root is restored before deleting!)
6. Install bootstrap
7. Reboot into bootstrap recovery
8. Wipe data
9. Flash eclipse
10. Profit from its beauty
How do I apply the 235 update in stock recovery, and how do I get that? And also, how do you do number 8 and 9, sorry if this is too much to ask. I'm new to this and don't want to go without directions, but sadly to a newbie, this aren't very helpful.
You can look into he droid x2 android development forum forum here or just dl 2.3.5 as if you were updating from your provider, by going to: settings/about phone/system updates.
8 and 9 are options in bootstrap recovery after you perform step 7
Sent from my Xoom using xda app-developers app
Yea take the update they way mombof told you, then open Voodoo OTA rootkeeper and restore root. It is IMPORTANT that after you restore the root you delete the SU Backup in the program or Eclipse install will fail.
Then download Boostrap Recovery from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1318083
Once it is installed Enter BSR following the directions in the link above and you will see "Wipe Data/Factory Reset" Select it
Then still in BSR you will see "Install zip from sd card" Select it then select "Sd Card" and find The eclipse Zip you should have downloaded and placed on your external sd card. And that's it.
EDIT: By the way 2.3.5 is rootable, I don't know why anyone would do the long method anymore. Just saying. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818758

Alright so, I followed the directions up to where you get into the Bootstrap recovery, once I go into recovery mode from the app, it shows the "Dual Core Technology" screen and nothing else.
Did you press install recovery from within the app before pressing recovery mode? And are you plugged in to a wall charger? You must be plugged in. Just pull your battery and put it back to reboot your phone. If you did press install recovery first then once you pull your battery and put it back in just leave your phone off and plug it into a wall charger and it will boot in to recovery.

That's exactly what I did. If it matters, when I first pressed install recovery and Recovery mode, it never went to the battery screen in the first place, it went to the dual core screen.
And also, I'm on 2.3.4 if that matters anything.
Um ok a couple things. ***Do not install eclipse because it is for 2.3.5. You should have backed up root in Voodoo, Temp unrooted, gone to Settings-->About Phone-->System Update and taken the 2.3.5 update. Opened Voodoo OTA rootkeeper, restored root, deleted SU backup and then installed bootstrap recovery.
When you download the zipped BSR on your computer you should have unzipped it, placed it on your external sd card, Used file manager on your phone to find it, press it, package install. Then open "System Recovery" app and pressed install recovery. Plug your phone into the stock wall charger that came with your phone and then pressed "recovery mode" leaving it plugged in.
It doesnt matter that BSR is installed now, take the 2.3.5 update following the steps above and then once you are rooted again and SU backup is deleted press install recovery again, and press recovery mode. It wont boot to a battery screen, it will shut off and restart into the recovery menu, but you will see the red dualcore screen first for a few seconds. Leave it plugged in and wait a minute.

First of all, thanks a ton for helping me.
So I backed up my root, and temp un-rooted my phone and went into my system update but it was grayed out. I tried the *#*#checkin#*#*, where you call that and it should force the update to 2.3.5, but it still didn't put me into 2.3.5. I factory restored my phone, SBF'd to 2.3.5 as directed by the root guide you gave to me a couple posts back, rooted my phone, downloaded BSR onto my phone, gave it superuser permission. I then plugged my phone into the wall outlet, installed recovery, and then went into recovery mode and it's showed me the dual core screen for about 5 minutes or so, still being plugged into the wall outlet.
I then pulled the battery from the back, and unplugged the phone. I put the battery back in, and plugged the phone back in and it went straight to the dual core screen.
Has this ever happened to people before me? Or am I just doing something terribly wrong and I don't even know it.
Something is not right. However if you rooted your phone using Magic root method bsr should have already been installed on your phone. You're not using the CM7 patched BSR for any reason are you? Do me a favor and try something. In system recovery app click charge mode, turn off your phone and plug it in, tell me if you see the battery icon again.
Are you 100% sure you are rooted and busybox is installed before trying to install BSR? Download rootchecker or android terminal emulator to make sure root worked.
Try uninstalling the bootstrap you added then reinstalling it. Or do a data wipe in stock recovery and reinstall it after.
when using magic md5 root, be careful not to click continue, until phone has completed reboot
or you will skip steps
If you're still having trouble, I strongly recommend Pete"s Motorola Root Tools. It has a one click root option as well as an un-root option, and its very easy to use. I've used it at least 6 times after sbf-ing without problem.

Read your great advice to the previous posts. I am having trouble installing the Eclipse ROM as well. Recently replaced a Droid X with a Droid X2 running stock GB 2.3.5. Rooted phone and tried to install Eclipse, but the installation failed twice with error of: "e:signature verification failed".
I have been searching forums for the past two days trying to find the problem, but have not had any luck.
I have ROM Manager and ROM Toolbox installed, if that info helps.
Thanks for your help!:good:

Thanks for the reply.
I rooted using a self extracting batch file off of the Droid X forum, and I don't think OTA Rootkeeper was any part of that, (Don't see it in my app folder)
Not sure if there is a super user backup, could not find it anywhere..
Any ideas would be appreciated!
Thanks
Could try re downloading eclipse

Dude, you are my hero! Sometimes the the easiest solutions are best. Downloaded a new copy of the eclipse zip file, (noticed that the file size was different from the old one. Hmmm!), Performed another nandroid and titanium back up, reinstalled eclipse...tada! No error!
Thanks!
That's why you should compare md5 checksums on every download
Md5 checker is in my list

I am trying to flash it but after some time it shows fail. Don't know what to do
I also tried to flash with all version of SBF but all says FAIL in RSD lite
Does RSD see your phone when you run it?
If its at the very end it will give you an error just pull the battery out and put back in a see if it well boot up.
Check out BB King's videos in you tube, he walks you through it one step at a time.

Yes i have RSD lite 6.0 version in my window 7 PC
HuOK if All the drivers are good. Run RSD put phone in RSd mode, your pressing the up volume button? Connect phone. In the Rsd program you should see the phone is connected.
Choose a sbf file not 2.3.5. By clicking the little box with the dots. Press go ;o)
check out BB Kings videos.
About the only other thing is use 7zip if you need to up zip anything.
Let us know....

I'm also having the issue with my photon saying "Starting RSD protocol support" when I turn the phone on. I'm not holding the volume button to activate this. Just before I started having this problem yesterday I noticed that my volume buttons would not work. I tried rebooting the phone to see if that would fix the volume key function and it's been in this mode ever since. I've tried the RSD lite but I get a failed message. Sprint support says I need a replacement and all my data and files would be lost. I do not want this to happen! Any help would be appreciated!
Hi,
I plan to order a Verizon S4 phone today.
When it arrives, I will try to root it right away.
Will probably turn it on in a bad signal area (my basement) and turn on airplane mode.
I have never owned a Samsung phone before.
How can I check if the phone came from Verizon with the OTA already installed?
Thanks,
Howard
You want it to say baseband..... Mdk, build...... Mdk. Not me7.

My new phone will arrive tomorrow.
I plan to just immediately boot it into Odin mode, and start the rooting process.
Is there a simple way to see if it has MDK while in Odin mode.
I just booted into Odin mode and it does not say what baseband your on. I would follow the rooting process and if flashing the prerelease kernel fails then you know it's a updated phone.

Worked out great.
I did NOT put in the SIM card.
Did everything using WiFi.
The rooting process worked.
I am on baseband I545VRUAMDK with root and TWRP recovery installed.
Used Titanium Backup to freeze SDM
I still have not inserted the SIM card.

Another related question regarding rooting:
I installed CleanRom, and when booting up it asks me about "update samsung device" which starts a download.
I assume I should always say NO - as this might be the dreaded ME7 update which eliminates root and locks the bootloader ????
I would say no. It's weird that your getting that with a custom rom installed. Can you get a screen shot of the pop up?

I only get the Samsung direct download via Wifi (no SIM card installed yet) when I use TWRP to factory reset and then boot the phone.
On subsequent reboots, I do not get prompted for the Samsung download.
I have been suffering from the google playstore error 920. This seems to occur at about 100 apps of my 200 apps. I've been TWRP factory reset to start it over again. But, now I've figured out how to get the playstore to resume my 200 apps auto-installation: First, wait 10 minutes, then in settings I remove the google account, reboot to TWRP recovery and wipe cache and dalvic-cache, boot phone, run playstore which prompts me to re enter the google account.
I am trying to set the phone up completely with all my apps, accounts, etc.. before activating the SIM card and installing the SIM card.
Let me know if you really wan tthe samsung update screen shot. If yes, then after I'm done setting the phone up I will make a nandroid backup and do a TWRP factory reset to get you a picture.
Regards,
Nope, was just curious. No need going through extra work.
