Re: Motorola Droid X2
When checking to see if V6 Supercharger is working at 100% I get...
Lose 25%: Build/local.prop ADJs Not Found.
What did I do wrong? I've tried removing/installing several times. I always get the same response.
stock rom?

sd_shadow,
Thanks so much for the post!
Here's what I did...
I uninstalled BusyBox and reinstalled using busybox_v1.19.4_wraithdu--installer_script_v14.zip.
I uninstalled V6 and started again with V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC11.sh.pdf.
I ran the script (su,boot), 99supercharger.sh.
I experimented...
I uninstalled V6 and reinstalled using V6_SuperCharger_for_Android-Update9_RC12-BlackDog-63457_Fix.sh.pdf, then 99supercharger. No joy
I successfully ran Ultimatic Jar Tools. No joy. Still 75%.
Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?
not sure
Ultimatic Jar Tools, should only fix, ics and jellybean roms
could try selecting local prop instead of build prop
what happens if you
run 99superchager.sh
don't reboot
rerun supercharger
if you get 100%, then smanager isn't starting at boot
options
see if you have a /data/99SuperCharger.sh , if so try running that one at boot
manually run 99superchager.sh after every reboot
make a Script Manager widget for /data/99SuperCharger.sh on your homescreen and simply launch it after each reboot.
use a different script program
I've tried both build prop and local.prop.
When I run /data/99SuperCharger.sh I'm told no need to rerun. Apparently it's already running.
Maybe I'll reinstall gingerbread 2.3.5 and try again.
Here's what I've done...
1. Wiped back to Factory Reset
2. SBF to Gingerbread 2.3.5.
3. Ran SuperCharger Startup Kit except for BusyBox. BusyBox 1.19.4 was pronounced ok in V6.
4. Ran V6 script.
5. Ran 99SuperCharger.sh with Boot engaged.
Still get: Lose 25% - build/local.prop ADJs NOT Found.
I do not find "BootLog_SuperCharger.log" or "Ran_SuperCharger.log!" to post.
Help. :crying:
"Lose 25% - build/local.prop ADJs NOT Found"
is not a 99SuperCharger.sh issue, the build prop is not getting edited, for some reason
some possible fixes
have voodoo rootkeeper installed? if so try deleting su backup
rooted with magic md5? with version? superuser or SuperSU?
if SuperSU, try un-rooting with Universal UnRoot App
and reroot with older DroidX2_Root_2012.exe
if you originally used /DroidX2_Root_2012.exe"]DroidX2_Root_2012.exe, unroot and try DX2Batchroot_2013.exe
try an older v6 like one posted here http://www.droidforums.net/forum/dr...harger-98kickasskerneltweaks-zeppelinrox.html Zepplinrox_Scripts.zip (29.2 KB, 1062 views)
try installing eclipse 2.3
Shadow,
No Voodo.
I used DroidX2_Root_2012.exe to unroot.
Haven't tried this one yet: DX2Batchroot_2013.exe.
try an older v6: Good idea.
eclipse 2.3: I may give this a try first unless I shouldn't. Thoughts?
not sure what the problem is, but sometimes system files get stuck.
I think best option is install a rom or restore someone elses nandroid.
can't tell you if eclipse is better for you or not, too many variables, how you use it, apps you install...
but for most people, eclipse is better, than stock
the other option, restoring a nandroid.
I am currently uploading a nandroid of 2.3.5 stock with v6 installed, will post link when it's ready, but will be another 40mins or so (slow connection)
> I am currently uploading a nandroid of 2.3.5 stock with v6 installed
Wow! Thanks!!!
Do I install with RSD Lite software or do I need to download another app?
Restoring a downloaded nandroid
Download nandroid zip file Sendspace link, or DevHost
verify md5 checksum: 7f29ec299e550708e5c051040221a762
unzip with 7zip or other file compression software
move folder 2013-08-17.14.00.17 to Clockworkmod>backup Folder on phone, if you don't have a clockworkmod folder create one, open it, then create a folder named backup in clockworkmod folder
Installing BSR/ Bootstrap recovery
1. Download BSR onto your computer http://www.mediafire.com/download/y19y123n6tauq7s/MOTODX2_Bootstrap_signed.rar
2. unzip it and place it on your external sd card (with your phone in usb mass storage mode.)
3. on your phone go to Settings-->applications and make sure "unknown sources" is checked.
4. use your file manager app to locate it it
5. press it and choose package install, and install it.
6. you will now have an app called system recovery, open it and press "install recovery"
***Important: In order to enter BSR/System recovery YOU MUST BE PLUGGED INTO A WAll CHARGER, not the computer or anything else, A WALL CHARGER***
restore a backup
1. Once you are sure you are plugged into a wall charger press "Recovery Mode" inside the system recovery app and in a few seconds your phone should reboot into the recovery menu.
2. Once you are in the recovery menu press volume down 6 times and "backup & restore" should be selected. Press the power button on top of your phone to select it.
3. select restore
4. select where the clockworkmod folder is, external or internal, then select 2013-08-17.14.00.17
5. confirm restore, yes
6. After the restore is complete you should be back at the original bsr menu and "Reboot System Now" should be highlighted. Select it.
7. You have just successfully restored a nandroid.
Shadow,
I'm so proud of myself. With your excellent instructions, I've restored a nandroid!
I opened V6 and indeed it was working at 100%. Several features were not activated; so, I turned them on. I suspect you already know what happened. I bricked my phone. :laugh: I think my version of V6, BlackDog is not the same as the one on the nandroid. Or my old backup data files on the SD card caused problems.
I decided to experiment. I SBF'd back to 2.3.5 and installed Eclipse as you suggested. How nice! I love it. It's running perfectly.
I attempted to install V6 with Eclipse. Nothing would install.
I'm enjoying Eclipse so much I may just leave things as they are... unless I get the experimental bug and play around with CM7. I understand I'll have to SBF back to 2.3.4. Who knows. I may even restore back to the nandroid.
Thanks for all your help!

best to only use the RC versions, I may need to make a note, for others, to use the same v6 version.
Or my old backup data files on the SD card caused problems.

could be either or neither, not a bad idea to backup data on sd card and format
what speed class is the sd card? it's the number on the card in the C, or if it's a UHS-1, it will have a U with a 1 in it.

some of the Droid X2s are glitchy and just will not do some things
I may upload a eclipse nandroid, that has v6 installed, depends on how you use the device, if v6 helps or not.
After a while any rom will become less responsive, just the limitation of the phone and software we have to work with.
how long that will take varies from user to user, weeks or months.
When that happens best option is restore a known good nandroid or reinstall the rom.
eclipse 2.3 with v6 installed nandroid.rar
included V6_SuperCharger folder needed on sd card to uninstall.
Shadow...
I have the file. Thanks!
It may be a while before I can work with it. I'm kinda swamped right now.
I'll keep you posted.
Shadow,
Where should I put "V6_SuperCharger"?
On the internal SD card, should already have one, just rename the old one, or delete it.

Im on my way to flash Axura 2.2.5.7 on my rooted vibrant . I titanium backed up all my system data and all apps using ‘back up all apps + system data’ feature of titanium. I, then, downloaded Rom Manager *free version… and flashed clockworkmod recovery…then rebooted into recovery and made a nandroid back.
I have now downloaded ODIN 3 v 1.70 on my computer.
I have been reading various guides (including vibrant wiki and bible) on how to root and flash roms.
Since I did ‘flash clockworkmod recovery’ yesterday..do I need to do it again?
Can any one direct me to a step by step process on flashing the Axura Rom.
I guess it’s the fear of the unknown while flashing for the very first time.
Thanks
EDIT: I have copied the titanium folder from internal memory to my pc just in case. I also would like to make a back up of rom manager (nandroid backup or whatever it is caleld) onto my computer... How do I do that? I wasn't ablt to locate the folder.

The only other thing you need to do, is put the Axura2257.zip (Or whatever it's name is) on the INTERNAL memory card & flash via clockwork Mod or Rom Manager
sorry..a noob here and it might be a stupid question: Can I also use ODIN to flash the rom? I feel I would be more comfortable working through ODIN.

Im telling you!, its less the hassle and way easier to do it through Clockwork Mod
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Just make sure you have two files on your 16g internal memory - Update.zip and the Axura.zip(can be named anything other than Update.zip for obvious reasons) file.
Reboot the phone into recovery. If it's blue then hit reinstall packages until it turns green with more options. This may take two times so don't freak if it's still blue after the first, just do it again.
Once in the green recovery go to install file from SD and select the Axura.zip file. Agree to everything and let it run it's course. Once done hit reboot now and enjoy.
thanks guys. just flashed Axura 2.2.5.7 ROM without any hiccups for the first time
Now need to restore apps and settings
Now one more question: What is voodoo and what is the benefit of enabling it on Axura 2.2.5.7?

Woah.. Were you on Android 2.1? Don't restore settings if you were.
Voodoo just converts to EXT4 (Which is faster)
Yes i was on 2.1. I read your post after i had started restoring all apps and data. i turned off my phone when i read this post. how can i get my data stored if not settings?

You can't to my knowlege... 2.1 & 2.2 are very different, and if you restore the settings & apps then there are going to be allot of problems.. I would just reflash it and manually setup the settings this time, and then backup everything up for the next ROM you choose..
that sucks. I have alot of apps (around 70/80). I had customized settings on them. Its sad not being able to restore those apps and their settings. I can do with system settings.
But overall thanks alot for a great phone experiences. its extremely snappy now and im loving my phone again hehe...
Two things from my experience.
1. You should be able to restore all your apps you backed up in Titanium Backup as it seems to be able to tell what apps won't work with Froyo. You'll see them with a line through them in Titanium. Just restore missing apps with data using the batch feature. Do not restore the one with + all system data.
Then go to Backup/Restore at the top and scroll down to green [SMS/MMS/APN] Dialer Storage and click that and restore it too (this is your text messages). You must restart your phone now for it all to take effect.
2. After you complete #1 - Hit up the market for Voodoo Toggle Reboot app (free). Once it's open you can Enable/Disable Voodoo with it. Click it if it's not green and then hit Reboot Now to activate it. You'll hear Linda talking to you while voodoo installs which may take a bit so don't worry.
Voodoo changes the file system to ext4 which is way faster and very stable. Your phone will fly with it.
You will have to setup new settings for everything else this time, but if you use Launcher Pro you'll be able to backup your desktop settings for next time. Once you get everything the way you like it, backup with Launcher Pro and then with Titanium Backup for next time.
Make sure you don't flash anything else through clockwork with voodoo active unless the Dev says it's ok to do so. An example would be when Axura 2.2.5.8 comes out it'll probably be ok to flash without messing with voodoo (crosses fingers).
So, I'm kinda new at this, as I was told by the forums when trying to post this question in the official gsb thread
I got an eris a few weeks ago for free, and its my first android device. I used it for a while, then rooted it and installed GSB.v2.0-CM7.0.0_RC2_STABLE
I've got it all customized and got some cool apps installed and am loving it. My question is, can I just go into recovery and install GSB.v2.6-CM7.0.0_RC4_STABLE and be good to go, or do I have to back up all my apps and settings and start fresh? I have most of my apps moved to sd. Will they be okay? Also, I went into system and changed my bootscreen, lock and unlock sounds, and added a boot script. I will have to back those up and redo them if anything, right?

You will lose your bootscreen during any ROM flash, plus whatever your boot script is I assume it's somewhere where it would get lost, too.
This may not work for your apps and system settings, but it's safe to try, then you'll know for sure if it'll work.
1. Go to your recovery and create a Nandroid backup of everything just the way it is.
2. Wipe Dalvik cache ONLY, do NOT Factory Reset/Wipe Data.
3. Flash GSB v2.6 and immediately after flash the GAPPs package, just like before.
4. If you had flashed the Cache2Cache script before you have to do that again as well, right after flashing the GAPPs.
5. Reboot and test everything to see if everything works to your satisfaction.
If it's doesn't then you have the Nandroid backup that you can restore. I can provide instructions that I use, and at least one other person has recently used and reported good about which uses Titanium Backup, but you'd really probably want to buy it off the market for it to be easier to do Batch backups and Restores (choose Menu/Batch from TB's main screen).
1. First, make sure the option is checked in TB's preferences to "Force to same location". FYI I do NOT use the checkbox for "Migrate system data". At THIS time (you can change it later), I suggest changing the Compression method to No Compression. This'll make sense in step 6.
2. From Menu/Batch, choose "Backup all user apps + system data".
3. Boot into recovery, do a COMPLETE wipe (Factory Reset/Data/Dalvik cache), flash your ROM and then your GAPPs (it's recommended at this time to NOT flash C2C just yet).
4. Reboot, SKIP setup of your Google account, go into Preferences/CyanogenMod settings/Application and check the box for "Allow application moving". I also change "Install location" to External, but that's up to you; this is just what works for me.
5. Boot back into recovery and flash C2C and reboot the ROM again.
6. Use File Manager, which comes with GSB and navigate to the TitaniumBackup folder (not TitaniumBackup-system). Find the Titanium Backup apk app installer file and reinstall it from here.
7. In TB, under Menu/Batch, choose "Restore all apps with data".
After this is done, reboot. If this works for you and you want to do this again in the future, you can make a copy of the Titanium Backup apk file to some other folder, that way you can re-enable compression in TB's preferences for future backups. I recommend LZ0.
I've been using this second method for the last 3-4 new versions of GSB, don't know how it would work with such a big jump in versions. If neither of these work for you, let me know if you still need help.
You will lose your bootanimation and any scripts you have but your apps will be fine. Like WRT said above just make sure you do a nandroid back up in recovery then wipe cache only. Once that's done flash 2.6 and gapps. Enjoy!
DINC|CM7|SLAYHER#27
Awesome. I had done a nandroid and ti backup to prepare, but I never saw the option in ti for force same location. I know how to backup and reinstall my lockscreen sounds and bootani, so I've got that down. Now that I look there's a 2.7 release which integrates the sdcard speed fix, so I won't need my init script now
Thanks for clearing that up for me, I'll post back when its done and tested if there's any issues.
Update: Well everything worked great! Thanks for all the help guys
Making the story as short as possible: I wanted to install CM7, so I factory-resetted my AT&T Captivate (with Android 2.1), what caused lots of force closes on every process and market wouldn't download anything. Tried to install the most recent version of gapps available on cyanogenmod wiki, but all it did was delete the old apks without putting anything on their place. Now I don't have market, gmail, gtalk and not even the web browser. Phone is still rooted, but as soon as I open the terminal emulator it force-closes.
Before resetting the phone, I backed up everything with ROM Manager and also Titanium Backup. But I don't know what to do with these backups, since I don't have android market and can't install any app to begin recovery. What should I do?
I'll be glad to provide more details if needed, just ask me. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: Just to show I've done my reading before asking: I guess I'll have to use Odin to re-flash the phone, but I'm not sure if this is the best method. I've already messed up and I don't want to make it worse, so I though I should ask before doing anything else. On the Odin tutorial I found, they used I897UCJF6 but I have no idea if this will work with my I897UCJH7. Maybe I could flash the gapps again if I found a version for Eclair (which I have searched and downloaded, but the recovery menu won't install it, just showing "installation aborted" - should I search and download other versions?). Maybe I could build the gapps zip again using the apks from Titanium Backup. I've also tried to reset and wipe the phone again, but nothing would restore the gapps.
Some other info that might be useful.
Firmware version: 2.1-update1
Baseband version: I897UCJH7
Kernel version: 2.6.29
Build number: ECLAIR.UCJH7
If you can get into recovery, do a restore from their. Since you backed up using ROM Manager you will be able to restore that backup with CWM. I don't use CWM, so I'm not sure of the exact wording of the option.
Once you've restored, you should be able to then flash CM7 and gapps. You should redownload in case you had a bad download. Check the md5 if you want extra peace of mind. Also be sure that you're wiping properly and that what you're flashing is compatible with your device.
As phones vary so much, I can't offer much further assistance. It's a place to start though.

Well, I guess yesterday I was too tired to think, I just ended up panicking and couldn't think of anything to do. Luckily, thanks to your suggestion I could realize what I had to do. I'll explain for others who might have this same problem and find this topic via Google.
As I had clockworkmod installed previously, there was a folder called clockworkmod on the root of my sdcard. Inside of it, there's a zip called recovery-update.zip. Just copy it to the root of the sdcard and rename it to update.zip. Using the 3 button combo (hold volume up & down while booting), I could get to the recovery menu and chose the option to reinstall updates from sdcard, which led me to clockworkmod recovery menu. Then, I just had to choose "install zip from sdcard", then "choose zip from sdcard" and select the cyanogenmod_rom.zip. A couple minutes later, my phone was booting cyanogenmod, so I just had to restart it on recovery mode and redo the last steps again to install the google apps. \o/
Once again, plainjane, thanks for the enlightenment!
This thread is for noobs by noobs , a place to talk about the app so that we don't clutter the ROM threads .
I hope this works out and helps anyone including myself with using this app.
Here is another GUIDE by JJsax posted on The Root Of All EVO that is a lot more detailed then this one.
The Official forum for BootManager is Init2winit if you would like to learn even more about the app.
As I learn about this app ,as to how and what works with it I'll update this and maybe it will help everyone out that is trying to use BootManager.
This app also works with EVO 3D's with hboot 1.50 s-on
Thank XDA member mnomaanw for that information.
If you use this app and have the time to reply to this post , please share what ROMs you've got to work and a little info on how you installed it. This way I can add it to the op to make it easier and faster for everyone to find.
This is what I've learned so far.
How to install* ROMs via Boot Manager...
Thank seraph863 for filling me in and writing this up. I just changed a few details cause his was for a specific ROM.
MAKE SURE THE ROM IS ON THE ROOT OF YOUR SD CARD NOT IN ANY FOLDERS
1.)* PURCHASE Boot Manager. It does a License check upon boot, so your jacked version will just give you a headache. Seriously, I tried it. Doesn't work.
Here is a Market link to Boot Manager if you didn't already purchase it.
1.a) IF you didn't purchase it... WIPE ALL Boot Manager data and files, including the folder on your SD Card. Then buy it and let it setup again.
2.) Open SuperUser. Hit Menu -> Settings -> Disable Logging.
3. Open BootManager. If you're at work and on Wi-Fi, you may not pass the License check due to firewall issues. If you get a black screen, or license failures, switch to 3/4G and try again.
4.) If all is good, you're asked to Setup the Phone. Do so now. [ You will need to set up your Phone ROM any time you flash a new ROM or kernel to your phone ROM.]
5.) Once installed, hit Menu -> Settings -> Force Large Boot.img
6.) Swipe right to Slot 1. Hit Install .zip and browse to your downloaded ROM.zip file. Make sure to check the Wipe System, Data, and Cache boxes so that it will wipe before it flashes the ROM. Select EXT4 as the file structure.
[This is the important part. This build will take a LONG time. Do NOT use your phone while it is running.]
8.) Once the install has been successful if you need to flash a kernel , theme gapps etc..., go back to Slot 1 and select Install .zip (again). Choose the .zip file. Do NOT wipe system, data or cache. It will ask you to over write it just hit OK.
9.) You should now be ready to boot to your new ROM! Celebrate!
Since this is for the EVO 3D I recommend to always use ext4 as your file structure.
If you get any error messages start over.
Known working ROMs to my knowledge.
These are ROMs that I've set up.
Infected Eternity Phone ROM and sd ROM

ROM2:MIUI v2.1.6
I've found it to work better to flash and set up my ROM on the phone ROM and then back it up and restore it to a slot.
If your having problems restoring backups and your using TWRP recovery try using CWM. I was having issues with TWRP and since I went back to CWM (touch and 5.0.2.0 both work great but there is no usb mount on the touch version) and I haven't had a single issue restoring a backup to a ROM slot.
My setup will be changing all the time.

Thank you for putting this here. I know I'm to blame for going off topic in some threads about Boot Manager.
I too am having issues getting a ROM to load into slot 1.
Here's my setup...

TWRP 2.0 recovery (the newest touch one)
I load steele just fine as the phone ROM then try to load CM9, or whatever other ROM into slot 1 it goes through everything then it get's killed at mounting img's. I have it setup for screen on, to load large files, and I even have SU logging turned off. This happens everytime I try to load a ROM into slot 1 it just kills it and never finishes 100%

SteeleROM 2.73
Anthrax #2 kernel
Over 5GB of storage space available.
HBOOT 1.50
TWRP 2.0 recovery (the newest touch one)
I load steele just fine as the phone ROM then try to load CM9, or whatever other ROM into slot 1 it goes through everything then it get's killed at mounting img's. I have it setup for screen on, to load large files, and I even have SU logging turned off. This happens everytime I try to load a ROM into slot 1 it just kills it and never finishes 100%

Mine say they install fine and they finish but when I hit boot to the slot it just gets stuck on the splash screen.
I had TrevE Zone on my phone ROM but just switched to eternity. I got MeanROM to install in slot 2 and it booted up fine and is running great but thats the only one I out of the 3 I tried. I set the boot.img to large or what ever the setting is cause thats what they said to do in the video on the site for the app. My real issue though is that restoring my backup to a slot it installs to my system memory. I would like to be able to install backups cause I've read they run better. Hopefully some that knows more about this will come in here and school us a little, I'll even add it to the op and make this a guide if we get enough info.
Here's my quick and dirty instructable I posted in the CM9 thread.
How to install this via Boot Manager...
1.) PURCHASE Boot Manager. It does a License check upon boot, so your cracked version will just give you a headache. Seriously, I tried it. Doesn't work.
1.a) IF you didn't purchase it... delete ALL Boot Manager files, including the folder on your SD Card. Then buy it and let it setup again.
2.) Open SuperUser. Hit Menu -> Settings -> Disable Logging
3. Open BM. If you're at work and on Wi-Fi, you may not pass the License check due to firewall issues. If you get a black screen, or license failures, uninstall BM and delete the folder. Switch to 3/4G and try again.
4.) If all is good, you're asked to Setup the Phone. Do so now.
5.) Once installed, hit Menu -> Settings -> Force Large Boot.img
6.) Swipe right to Slot 1. Hit Install .zip and browse to your downloaded CM9 .zip file. Wipe System, Data, and Cache. Select EXT4 as the file structure
7.) This is the important part. This build will take a LONG time. Do NOT use your phone while it is running.
8.) Once the install has been successful, go back to Slot 1 and select Install .zip (again). Choose the Google Apps .zip file. Do NOT wipe system, data or cache.
9.) You should now be ready to boot to your new ROM! Celebrate!
Warning: Several users report to NOT use any Backup app such as Titanium to restore your apps and data, since the apps on this ROM are very very different. Your mileage may vary.
FYI I'm doing this by memory, so the minor steps might not be accurate (i.e. disable Superuser logging).
If you get any error messages, start over. I assure you, this process worked for me step by step.
Go to their official forum
Applications-->boot manager
You will find my thread named [REF]working and not working rom list
There are many phones
And if you test a rom that is not listed please report if it is working or not

I saw your guide in the cm9 thread and tried it with no luck I did exactly what you said and everything seemed to go fine but when I hit boot to ROM on slot one where I installed the ROM I'm stuck on the splash screen. Any ideas why? Thanks for the help also.

I was on there I even posted my issue and my log but haven't gotten any help. I did see your list of ROMs but didn't know if its up to date.
I'll have another look at it cause I really want to get this to work and its driving me crazy cause I can usually figure problems out on my own or by searching but I just can't get this.
Thanks for the replies.

Which ROM are you using?
I would start over. Use a file manager to delete your ROM from the SD Card and take another image. Make sure you have plenty of storage on your SD card. You could also try clearing the Cache and Dalvik.
You can always get back to your phone ROM manually by booting to Recovery and flashing sdcard\bootmanager\phonerom\update.zip
Edit: Don't forget to check "Use Large boot.img" within Boot Manager

Should I just delete the whole bootmanager folder and clear the data for the app also?
another thing is why when I restore a backup to a slot its installing to my internal memory?
Yeah I just had another look at your list and there aren't many ROMs for this phone on there and they look old.
Thanks again for the help.
It up to date
Anyway gflame is busy
What do you do to install the rom
And wich rom?

I wiped everything out and starting over. I'm going to just try and install viperom in one slot and see if that boots, then I'm going to try and restore a backup to another slot from within a ROM slot to see if that will fix my internal memory issue cause it wont have anywhere to install to . I'll post back with what happens.

I disabled logging in su checked off larg boot.img then whet to slot one hit install zip choose cm9 ext4 then checked all the wipe opinions, when that finished I flashed the gapps the same way but without wiping . Everything finished with that I didn't get any errors but when I went to boot to that slot it just hung at the splash screen.
I did that 2 times with cm9 , 1 time with the Eternity ROM sense 3.0 r130 , 1 time with Team Nocturnal's Blackened ROM and they all got stuck at the splash screen.
I did get MeanROM to work using those same steps last night.
Now with the restore of my backup I did basically the same thing but it doesn't give any wipe options when you install it but it would get an error saying boot.img something like that and then I would get a low memory popup saying I only had about 30mb left internal memory when I had over 800mb when I started.
Edit: I have about 6gb free on a 16gb class 10 sd card. I believe its a Samsung card I think.
Edit2: I finished flashing viperom and now that to is stuck on the splash screen. Is there a way to wipe caches for that slot and fix permissions like you would for a regular ROM in recovery if something like this happened.
I'm really starting to think I wasted $3 this is very frustrating sorry.
Thanks for your replies and trying to help.
I went into recovery to go to flash the update zip to restore my phone ROM but when I open the bootmanager folder I don't see anything in it. I'm using twrp 2.0 recovery. Could this have something to do with my problems?

The steps in your previous post were all correct, except you said you turned OFF "Use large boot.img" ? Make sure that option is ENABLED (has an X on it)
I'm confused as to why the app is trying to install to your internal memory... Mine installs to my SD Card. Make sure the USB cable is not plugged into the phone, and try increasing your screen timeout so it doesn't sleep during the install.
The fact that you're getting the splash screen means you're getting somewhere. Maybe you're being too impatient on the install? Wait a few minutes even after it says Install Complete before continuing.

I said I checked the larger boot.img off meaning it was enabled sorry for that misunderstanding. I flashed 2 of the slots last night and didn't even test them till today so I don't think that its cause I'm not waiting long enough. Why would none of the folders inside of the bootmanager folder show up in twrp recovery? Could I copy and paste the phone update.zip to the root of my sd card so that I can recover without having to nand restore cause I've already wiped and restored about 10 times trying to get this to work.

My phone:
Phone ROM: SteelROM 2.72
Slot 1: AOSP ICS - wifi doesn't work
Slot 2: CM9 - (google talk and books FC)
Slot 3: MIUI
Slot 4: CM7 (kmeyers)
Boot Manager has a problem trying to restore from a NAND backup, it did the same thing to me where it was installing to the phone's internal memory. I was trying to figure out the problem, but I moved on without success.
I've had the best time installing tricking ROM's by this method. I installed CM7 to a slot, booted into CM7 and installed the ICS and CM9 from there. It's been pretty successful.
If you are getting it to freeze with mounting images, I came across this issue because my SD card did not have enough room. You can try to free up some more space to see if this is the same issue.
I had most problems installing due to not enough space on my SD card, I now have a 32gb card, and have had no issues
Also, I've never had to set it to large boot.img to get things to work, and make sure you disable logging in SU, and use EXT4

To quickly get back to your phone ROM (make sure you setup your phoneRom in boot manager first to create the update.zip file, you need to recreate this anytime you change the ROM or Kernel for your phoneROM)
Boot into Recovery
Install the update.zip inside the \boot manager\phonerom\update.zip (not sure if location is accurate, but you get the idea)
Reboot system
Phone should boot to phone ROM, or you can install any other update.zip from your slots, to boot to them etc

What cm7 ROM would you recommend ? For some reason I couldn't see files inside of the BootManager folder but I checked and they are there. I have about 5gb free on a 16gb card ,I was looking into getting a 32gb if I get this app working.

I've purchased boot manager and when i run it, it says "application not licenced" Any fix?

cm7 worked thanks.
It's hopeless. You guys saved me on the bootstrap issue, but I couldn't help myself. I had to try to mod again. I CANNOT install any ROM with any form of loader or manager. So I download Cm7.1, copy it to a folder which I have designated use for all of my recovery files and is visible by recovery(Android recovery that it). When I go to open the ROM it initializes the boot but aborts because the "signature" isn't valid, or something to that effect. I've tried Clockworkmod recovery, which I can't even find when the time comes(its a blank folder now instead of bringing me into the program), and I've bought the Bootstrap Loader form market, none of which create something I can recall in Recovery. I don't mind spending money on apps, in fact I enjoy giving back, but I think maybe its time to cut my loses with this and just stay rooted and happy with my Gingerbread. Any Idea's?

No worries man, thanks for the info anyway. Do you know where I can find a list of the bloat apps? I'm sure I'll find it soon, but I figured I'd ask..
Most likely a bad download.

First problem I see is you're using the Android recovery, instead of ClockWorkMod recovery, which is why you're getting the "signature invalid" error.
Second issue (maybe) is if you are extracting the CM7 zip (or any other roms) vs copying the zip file directly to your phone. Furthermore, when you're installing a ROM through BSR, you are not going to use the "apply sdcard:update.zip" option, you need to select "choose zip from sdcard"
Third issue is you cannot use *any* time of manager (ROM manager or otherwise) with the DX2. Unfortunately our bastard of a phone won't use anything except the System Recovery specifically formatted for it. I would suggest SBF'ing back to 2.3.4 and following c21johnson's system recovery guide to a T. If you're trying to install CM7, all you'll need to do at this point is copy the zip to your external SD card (and I would suggest redownloading the ROM at this point, just to be safe) and follow the install guide. Again, you *cannot* use Android's Recovery to install any ROM, you must use BSR. After you install CM7 (if it's successful ) you'll need to install the cm7 recovery included in the cm7 thread. If you're wishing to install nitro's 2.xx eclipse you'll need to SBF to 2.3.4 and upgrade to 2.3.5 using this guide.
Hope this helps!

Once again sir, you are so very right. I wasn't grasping that Bootstrap Loader is an app UN-to itself. That is the only thing was lacking...Thank you much. Are you a developer?

As for CM7, I would recommend finding the CM7DX2 post in the Development section and follow the guide I wrote for the original post (OP).
For SBF, rooting, and making a nandroid backup, follow each of the posts in my signature.
Ciao!
Did you download all the files from A Droid X2 forum? If you use any other files meant for other devices, nothing will work. For the DX2, you need the bootstrap recovery and the CM7 specifically for the DX2. When you get the bootstrap recovery, it comes as a .apk file. Just place it on your phone and install it like a normal app. Once installed, you will see it in your app drawer labeled "system recovery." To get into it, open the app, select the first button "Install Recovery" and hit ok when it tells you install was successful. Then select the second button "Recovery Mode." Your phone will reboot in a few seconds and put you into recovery mode. Once there do what was mentioned above and install zip from SD card. Navigate to where your CM7 zip file is and install.
It is always recommended to wipe data and cache before flashing which can be done in bootstrap recovery. Also a good thing to do is to backup all your apps with Titanium Backup from the market.

Sorry about that, I must have been excited. Unfortunately I spoke too soon. Either that or I'm not meant for this, which I hope is not the case seeing that I'm getting my degree in IT. I finally get bootloader, with ROM and GAPPS placed accordingly(I opted for Eclipse). When the zip is finished uploading and I see confirmation that all was installed correctly, I begin the reboot......and it takes new to an unactivated Droid X2. I've created nandroid after nandroid, with different methods and different ROMS, and I either land there or with a signature error, even in bootstrap. I'm gonna try one more time before I hang up my guns. Maybe.....
you should be able to activate
running eclipse
with my D2G, I got the activation screen, sometimes after flashing roms
and just activated
edit: why are you creating nandroids?
you don't need to keep making more, unless you have new data you want to save and then data is only good for that rom

Thanks for the input everyone, and I've actually succeeded this time....really. Its turns out that I had to change some of the permissions of the zip before I tried to flash. Lucky me....now some sleep
