So I had ota ics and using safestrap to run aokp jb 4.2.1. I was messing around in 4636 hidden menu and activated usa band. Searching for a fix didn't help so I figured I could just use rsd lite and re-flash ics. I had long since the first time deleted all the files so I got the ones from sbf droid developers.org. The first I tried had 11 points and failed at 1/11 with a cdt.bin error. Then I got another which ran till 6/xx and then return the same error. The xx is because I didn't notice how many points it had to run through.
Do I have any options?
In rsd lite the device properties are all blank and they have been for both attempts.
Thanks

That error means you tried to flash an sbf with a lower version than you had on your device.
Make sure the sbf you are using is exactly the same you had running and for the same region.

OTA's only work once if phone is stock.
Android version can't be downgraded.
What are you trying to do?
As I said in OP, I was messing with stuff I didn't understand. I got the factory cable and also one of the old sbf files. I have checked that the one I have is for UMTS but it is still in CDMA mode. It just will not switch bad to UMTS mode.. I was using the wrong android version when I did this the first time but it is now flashed and working. Only problem is the radio thinks it is CDMA..

.sbf is an old Motorola file format that has not been used since the Droid X2 MB870, the prefered term for stock motorola firmware is FXZ or .xml

Factory cable for power. The phone had been unpowered for a year.
Term or not, I was just referring to the file extension. All these oem abbreviations, meh. I wouldn't even know if it was one or the other. It was listed as a sbf, so that's what I called it
But thanks replying. The is working now. I guess it must have been the right radio after all. Thanks anyway

There is no paid version of his utility. Are you in fastboot ap mode on your phone when you try to use his utility?
Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
yes i'm in ap fastboot mode,i downloaded 2 versions of dru one is a 7-zip file which i can't open on my pc even though i downloaded the program to do it ,i don't know what type of file the other version is got it from matts xda post,it opens and runs but again i get the script saying files\moto-fastboot ect...when i first tried to root using doomlord it installed the bionic bootstrapper the root didn't take so i uninstalled the bootstrapper and rooted using motofail i don't have any boot or safe strap installed,please someone help me i want to be ready when ics rolls out,.......
I'd suggest going back to Matt's thread, and going through a few pages as there is an updated version. I think it's also posted at another razr forum. Delete the versions you have just to eliminate any confusion. You may also just want to use RSD. It took me a few tries to get the right fastboot file, but once I did I just had to ota to .173 then to .181.

I have tried to sbf with rsd lite 5.3.1 and every other versions. I also tried with linux and mac and that live sbf disk. I have tried 10 different sbf files. my computer has windows 7 ultimate and ubuntu 11.11. I get a error on rsd lite that says waiting for phone to re-enumerate, and a message on the screen of the x2. It sucks because now I have my htc eris and this phone sitting here.

I got that error too if you are trying to flash a 2.3.5 SBF and your Kernal is 2.3.6. If that is the case you can not go back due to a security issue that Motorola implemented. So you would need to find the 2.3.6 SBF. I would assume that you are putting it into RSD mode on the phone?
it just gets the same thing on the phone as rsd lite and sits there and after 5 minutes it says failed and weird symbols

i have sbfed it before with the milestone x2 2.3.5 sbf and updated it so ill try the 2.3.6 milestone x2 sbf... when i flashed that i lost 3g and wifi. does any know how to get that back
Hmm... I had the same issue but it was because I was trying to sbf back from 2.3.6 to 2.3.5. Now is your phone a Milestone X2 or a Droid x2?
I have you tried putting into recovery mode and clearing out the factories? I know this sounds basic but... sometimes that needs to be done.
Is the computer registering the phone?
Have you tried unistalling the drivers from the computer and reinstall them?
Same thing with RSD.. Have you tried a different version of RSD?
These are the only things I can think of. I hope something helps! Best of luck to you and let me know how it goes.
i got it back up thank u for the kernal stuff. i forgot i flashed it with the milestone x2 sbf so i got it back up. alot of ppl lost 3g but i didnt

We have 2 droid razrs from Verizon. My phone has been mostly stock with a one time flash to an earlier build of ICS. I have seen gone back to stock and just rooted. We don't go into a 4G area very often, but today I noticed something strange.
The razr I did not flash ICS to has 4g but mine does not. Looking at the about phone screens shows one difference. On the baseband version mine shows CDMA_N_04. 07.01R
The other razr shows that plus LTEDC_U_07. 1F. 00
Is this just a simple RSD perhaps I used Matts utility to go back to 181 or whatever it was a few months ago.
Thanks hope this made sense.

Chances are the baseband was not downgraded.

Most importantly the link that is enclosed in the thread:

EDIT: links fixed
Nothing against Matt's utility, I find it very useful, and it works wonderfully in most cases... however nothing can replace a full RSD back to stock... I believe the utility skips a lot of things that RSD does... the utility is only meant to return system to stock, as to where a full RSD returns everything to stock... my only advice is load up the fastboot files into RSDlite and complete a full RSD before going any further... make sure to read all directions to do so and make doubly sure you have at least 80% battery before attempting a full RSD.

I'm off to RSD now.
Ok guys, I dont ask questions in here lightly, when I ask a question its only after hours of (fruitless) searching. I was invited to the soak test for the ICS update, BUT there were still traces of root on the handset so it kept failing, SO I tried the droid utility to un-root but for some reason pressed the wrong option (I know I know) and it attempted to load a version of firmware incompatible with my razr. SO I got the ap flash fail message and nothing else - a couple of hours later and about 15gb of files to flash through RSD lite, I am still no better off, I just can't find the right image, there is one that appears to install, but then it wont boot and goes instead to the ap fastboot screen boot fail.
Is my device dead? Or fixable? I have tried getting version info from the Moto website but they need the IMEI (which I have) AND a serial number which I DONT have, I have no idea why I tossed the box, nbot like me as I dont keep phones for long but for whatever reason I did.
The phone was second hand and has NO operator branding on it at all so I assume its retail, It was on 2.3.6. Please please someone tell me it's not as bad as it appears!!
if u got ap flash error.. I'm sure u just the right rom to flash via RSD lite n u should be ok.. try give some more info if u can.. like are u xt910 or xt912?

The only details I can access are on the back of the handset - Its the XT910, I know the IMEI number but thats not relevant,
The back also says, Type: MOC2E Fcc Id IHDP56ME2 Ic Id 1090 - P56ME2,
That is all I know, the phone has no operator software installed that I ever saw so I am guessing its a sim free retail model.
I have tried every eu fastboot flash file I can find, (about a dozen of them) I'm scared the battery will run out and leave me completely stuffed!
You can only flash phone with ICS fastboot not gingerbread firmware.
There are couple ICS fastboot leaked by sbf.droid-developers.com, download ICS firmware and flash phone with RSD lite. good luck.

You will need ICS fastboot files to use with RSD lite. Once the bootloader updates to ICS version, you cannot fastboot with Gingerbread stock.

I don't suppose you have a link to these files do you? I have been researching and have attempted to download so many things with broken links I have myself confused now. UGH...
You will need to find the correct files for your RAZR's region.
You can find fastboot files here:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_spyder/list.php
If you have trouble finding the right one, please post your RAZR's region/telco etc.
Can you please help me figure out which files i need? What info is needed to determine this? I am at a loss.
If your using a CDMA razr try matts droid razr utility, it will get you back to stock ics and has other options like rooting,
this has saved me multiple times, just look it up on google I think the latest version is 1.8 there will be links for the moto drivers, good luck
