I am posting this here since I have under 10 posts and cannot post in the dev section.
I have a Droid X2 that is rooted and flashed to Eclipse 2.2.1
I have a nandroid backup on my SD card, but cannot get into a screen to restore it.
I have had it flashed and working for a few days now. The phone turned off in my pocket, and when I turned it back on, it loads up to the Eclipse animation but never goes any further.
I have searched Google and cannot find an exact scenario. I have found people who fixed by going back to stock SBF, but this did not work for me.
I have tried both 2.3.3 and 2.3.4 and am using RSD Lite 5.4.4.
The phone will reboot after it "finishes" and get stuck in the Eclipse animation again.
I have done a data/cache wipe through Android Recovery with no result. I have cleared it more than once just to be sure.
Wow, sounds like you tried about everything and I'm shocked nothing has worked. I would try the 2.3.5 ota sbf (in development section) but that may not work either.... If it were me I would at least try it. I would also try re downloading the rsd lite program. Are you unzipping before flashing the sbf file?

Not for nothing, but keeping your phone in your pocket in summer heat could have possibly damaged some internal hardware.
Just to keep this simple, I would let the phone sit, perform an sbf to 2.3.4 following any of the guides here. Also try tee downloading the sbf file. When you power off your device...plug it in...then hold volume down and power button what happens?? It should say Fast boot on the to of the screen of your phone....I'm reading as I'm typing and thinking something else is wrong, I would not want to steer you wrong, but sbf works...always, like more then a thousand times....so it may be hardware that is the issue.
Sometimes when SD cards are corrupt they cause issues also, but that you would see in cwr...
Do you have insurance?
Inserted 20ยข for the first three minutes
Maybe a different sbf method could work? You could try the ez sbf http://www.droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x2-hacks/41697-tool-ezsbf-dx2.html

I am unzipping the sbf file. I have had previous experience with RSDLite since the the days of the Razr flip phone.
I don't think it could be a corrupt download, because the SBF does unzip. Not to mention the fact that I've tried 2.3.3 AND 2.3.4... to completely different files.
In my pocket in the summer heat doesn't really apply when I'm inside all day. I did not have my otterbox on the phone when this happened.
I can hold the buttons and get into the menu for RSD/fastboot/recover.
The android recovery will clear the data and cache, but it just gets stuck in the boot animation and doesn't progress. I let it sit trying to load for over an hour with no luck.
I have also tried booting without an SD card.
There is no insurance on the phone. I bought it off Craigslist for $100 and I use it on Cricket.
This is the first time I've had a problem with the phone, and it's such a weird problem, I had to sign up and get input.
I will try to SBF again now that I have had the phone off for a few hours.
EDIT: Did not fix. Even SBF to 2.3.5 still keeps the eclipse boot animation.

I tried running the ezSBF through USB boot, it went through the whole process (CQ60 and CQ65 took a long time). When the phone boots up, it still shows the eclipse animation and just loops it.
I held down power and vol-down, I can still get into the Android Recovery to wipe data and cache... but it doesn't help.
Did you ever get anything to work? I wonder if you could push something using adb? I am not familiar enough with it to help and not sure it would help. I feel like there has to be a solution to this but don't know what it could be? Bump.....

You keep saying that after an SBF, you get the eclipse animation. When you SBF you should get the droid animation since it is putting it back to stock. If you are still getting the Eclipse animation then it didnt work right and didnt SBF. Did the SBF actually say it completed successfully?
There enlies the problem. It will go through every stage and go to reboot and get stuck in the eclipse boot animation. It will tell me to manually power up my phone, and when I do, it will say finished.
SBF is supposed to overwrite everything, but it just doesn't. I have tried it using the RSDLite app and the Linux boot.
I have never read about anyone else having this problem, and I have been looking for a solution since Tuesday afternoon.
I am not familiar with ADB, but I will read into it.
I use linux all the time never used rsd of any kind on it I have the files you will need on linux if you need them just let me know.

Here is a guide of how your suppose to use ithttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1321061
Let me know if this works for you or if you need help.
I just read your post again thought you said that you were using rsd in linux. My bad. Hopefully you get everything figured out. I would delete and redownload everything including rsdlite and try again. I've flashed at least a hundred sbfs in linux and never had a problem yet
I run Windows 7. I used the Linux DroidX2 boot disk. It went through all the stages, but still no dice. I tried it twice.
Im sad for you. Other than redownloading all your files and trying again I don't know what other options there are for you. Maybe you could find a way to flash something using fastboot?

I would assume the original Motorola eco cable would be the one that works.
I have another data cable that I can use, I just haven't tried it.
There is not a whole lot of information out there on how fastboot works. It's always RSD support and SBF flashing.

Yeah I did some digging couldn't find a fastboot file for dx2. But you can wipe data and cache with it. I would suggest the same try different computer, cable, and files. Probably your only hope. Have you sbfed the phone successfully before?
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
I'm wondering if more than just turning off happened in the pocket? Too bad we'll never find out.
My DX2 was rooted and running eclipse. I've SBFed it to do that. Before that, I was running stock 2.3.5 with all the edits to put it on Cricket instead of Verizon.
I can't figure out what happened inside my pocket. I was using it one minute, put it in my pocket and went outside for a smoke, took it back out and it was turned off.
I don't get any boot error messages. It just won't erase Eclipse when it SBFs.
I can still hold power + volume down and scroll through all the menus.
I hooked it up to my laptop and it sees the ADB.
Unfortunately, the go-to is always SBF and nobody says anything about flashboot.
Try a different computer yet? What happens when you pull the battery and plug into the wall?
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
I only have one computer.
And what do you mean, pull the battery and plug it in the wall? Leave the battery out and plug it in?
Update:

no need to flash full SBF.
Earlier post (July 2012)
*************************************************************************
this method is obsolete now.
but it was the only way at that point in time.
Use it on your own rick.
it worked for me to get back my photon 4G after locked OTA 2.3.5 update
it uses Electrify sbf. Electify is similar to photon with no 4G (Carrier is US Cellular - may not work with Sprint)
I am not in US so not able to check.
the method I used to clear Failed to boot 2 error on photon 4g:
be warned that you may loose 4G. this is ELECTRIFY SBF
downloaded the Electrify sbf form here
use RSDLite 5.5 to flash this sbf into the phone. in the final stages, it will show failed. but don't worry
it will work. try to switch the phone on. some times it will not boot.
wait for some time and it will boot slowly.
perform a factory reset from settings or by using android recovery
it is easy to root with photon-torpedo.tar
root help is available here

I would need from you, to read custom sbf thread (all posts) and try to get boot.img, recovery.img from Photon 2.3.5 (sv2) and system.img dump in your phone.
It's a challenge, I know.
Looks like I have myself some serious reading to do but if I can help you guys out with this I'm down! I have to get this PC back up, so I'll be on this asap. Thanks a million, and hopefully I can contribute some useful information.
On a side note, I have experienced a few reboots randomly since flashing the sbf. I'm sure out had to do with the fact its a different phone firmware, bUT thought you might like to know.

Those reboots are modem panics, because of no radio.
Or you can try to install mofish rom with bootstrap and try to fastboot flash only boot.img first, or I can give you sbf with boot and recovery.
Factory reset?

peetr_ from this thread resolved my issue and I'm no longer bricked (working WiFi AND 4G!). The fix comes around the 3rd or 4th page.
Ok so I was finally able to get PC back, flashed radio SBF (Radio & Gps fixed) - saw something about modules for 4g and sprint im taking it? I currently do not have any calling, mms, etc priveledges. I did reroot, added bootstrap, doing nandroid backup as we speak. I guess only left to do is get this mopho back up and running - completely!

From memory, I will try to recall exactly what steps I have taken to reach this point.
1. I started off fine from 198_7 locked
2. still fine, unlocked and on joker's cm10
3. I decided to go back to locked for 4g. then factory reset from the cm10 settings
4. from my mac, I flashed stock recovery and sbf the nopudding4u
5. after reboot, I got error "Failed to boot 4 -- Starting fastboot" or something like that.
6. I stupidly followed this guide. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797787
but now I believe I was a person on 2.3.4 and should have steered clear of that guide. hindsight....
7. after reboot, I got error "Failed to boot 1 -- Starting fastboot" also something like that.
8. few hours later I realized I could use RSD because without pressing any buttons, the "Failed to boot 1" started RSD mode and I tried
to use 198_7 and it failed.
9. I then felt I had to use the 2.3.5 sv2 update and tried to find an sbf for it. and found this guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1798145
10. upon reboot, I cannot seem to connect to any network other than wifi.

You probably are in the same boat as I am. Flashing the APPROPRIATE modules for the photon's radios is the key to fixing this problem. Basically two kinds pre and post 2.3.5 sv2 pre being something of the sort of 198_7. figure out which one you need and either flash the modules or flash a rom

how do i flash one or the other. i only kno the RSD lite with the Derpunlock.sbf (which by the way failed)
Wanna try being as thorough as I was describing my situation in the OP? Can't really help without knowing your current status. Should start from the point you photon was last working.
Let's see it was working then I tried to see if I could get free internet. So I put in this code hmm can't recall (*#*#3646#*#*#)? I think but it took me to my network section and I changed a network to gmail and ever since it has never connected.:banghead:

ok i ran into a problem re flashing cm10 on my x2 had to sbf using the ntelos sbf re rooted and restored 754 boy's 2.3.6 nandroid and now i have no data, i can make calls and text but no 3g anyone know a fix for this or am i stuck till up grade. will c spire flash the correct sbf for me if i took it to them or is that a shot in the dark.
C Spire won't give you an sbf. I've been trying for months. Do you have a nandroid backup of the stock rom that came with your MX2? I've seen it mentioned a few times in this forum that you can sbf with the Ntelos file and then restore your nandroid backup of the stock rom and everything should be working fine. I have bricked two Milestone X2 after trying various mods and took it to my local C Spire store. All they would do is warranty the phone out and give me a new one. They could not use a sbf to reset it. Double check to make sure your data connection isn't disabled in your settings and try dialing *228 to activate your phone and see what happens.
Edit: I misread your post and see that you restored 754boy's nandroid. I'm not sure what else to tell you except what is in the last sentence of my post.
done the *228 thing. i have data enabled. i can make calls and text. as I've been doing research I've found out that I have no choice but to deal with it or warranty it out. i use Wi-Fi at home and the office so i think I'll deal with it for now.

in theory yes there is how ever you would need to know exactly what files and where they are. also restoring them would be a pain without extensive knowledge on how they work or someone with the knowledge to create a walk through.

APN settings are only good for SMS or MMS settings..... I think. Anyway, I took it to cspire and they were clueless. All they tried to do was *228, which I had already done. Factory reset wasn't working either. Anyway all they could advise me to do was an upgrade since my warranty expired 2 damn weeks ago. They need to have REAL techs working in there.
I'm gonna keep experimenting.......

if there has ever been an c spire mx2 ota update, and if someone saved it
it can be flashed, in flashmode, with moto-fastboot.exe
at least parts of it can, not sure if all moto updates flash the radio
I know with the D2G the 2.2 to 2.3.3 changed the radio
there is an update.zip for MX, have no idea what that would do to MX2
[ZIP]Cellular South (C Spire) OTA GB 2.3.5 Update zip
could really hard brick it, ,if it didn't, maybe could flash a MX2 sbf with sbf_flash
but that's something you try just before you toss it in the trash

If the update is to 2.3.5 it will bomb if it is to update to 2.3.6 it will bomb. Sbf flash is one of the only ways to safely sbf and still retain carrier information to allow data access. If you have already flashed the ntelos sbf with rsd lite then the only thing that can bring back data is to find an ota for 2.3.6 and modify your build.prop to 2.3.5 to let the stock recovery flash it. Or take it to your carrier and have them reflash the phone with their sbf. Sad fact but I've had it happen too much till I switched to sbf flash.

I tried sbf_flash using Ubuntu via VMware. It detected my phone but failed to flash each time. Could you elaborate on what to edit in the build.prop. That sounds easy since I've edited it before to add and change certain stuff......then again, would still need that 2.3.6 OTA and I've never seen one around. I'm not even going to waste my time or gas by taking it to Cspire. The people in there are useless when it comes to technical stuff like this.
I did the .165 update 2 weeks ago and since then i have not had 4g in an area i always have before and my fiance with same carrier has a strong 4G signal. I was on 1x data for a few days but managed to get 3g back with a sim card and few resets...phone works fine other than that.
installed no apps recently such as battery saver etc.
I've tried fastbooting back with rsd to 9.8.2O-72_VZW-16 build.
tried a fresh fastboot to .165
Tried wiping system cache in recovery.
global networks set to cmda/lte
tried cdma/lte/evdo and a few others.
Tried flashing cm10.2 rom with safestrap
safemode still only 3G.
I replaced sim card.
hard reset and factory reset from recovery mode.
Im at a loss im not sure what else to try. I cant get a replacement although im eligable for upgrade but im grandfathered into an unlimited data package that they want to take away if i do that.
I believe its a corrupted radio file issue but im not sure. I assumed rsd would fix that.
I was on phone with verizon 8 hours over 3 days and finally the guy there recommended me to just use fastboot files. He was pretty cool.
Motorola doesnt want to talk to me at all and blame verizon for there update.
I was hoping someone could recommend anything else to try. I hate not having 4G. Spoiled i guess. So I decided to ask the real experts and the most helpful community XDA. Thanks in advance.
Phone info if needed:
Droid razr xt912
Currently 98.72.165 (have files to go back to .16 tho)
4.1.2 jellybean
baseband - cdma_N_05.21.00R LTEDC_U_09.1D.00
PRL - 15287
Is there any way you could send me a zip of the 15287 prl zip. Please, or point me in the right direction.

What is the problem? Ur Prl isn't current. I only have fast boot files. To flash phone bask to stock. And I have radio.IMG files to flash radio. I don't think u can zip Prl. I think its done with our simcard.
I keep getting error 407 when I try to update my prl through settings.

U can call your provider and they may push you a new prl. Have u tried powering down. Remove sim. Power back on wait for no sim to show. Power off. Put sim back in and then power back on. If that doesn't work then u can get a new sim from from carrier and that should fix your Perl update
Thanks

I did the .165 update 2 weeks ago and since then i have not had 4g in an area i always have before and my fiance with same carrier has a strong 4G signal. I was on 1x data for a few days but managed to get 3g back with a sim card and few resets...phone works fine other than that.
installed no apps recently such as battery saver etc.
I've tried fastbooting back with rsd to 9.8.2O-72_VZW-16 build.
tried a fresh fastboot to .165
Tried wiping system cache in recovery.
global networks set to cmda/lte
tried cdma/lte/evdo and a few others.
Tried flashing cm10.2 rom with safestrap
safemode still only 3G.
I replaced sim card.
hard reset and factory reset from recovery mode.
Im at a loss im not sure what else to try. I cant get a replacement although im eligable for upgrade but im grandfathered into an unlimited data package that they want to take away if i do that.
I believe its a corrupted radio file issue but im not sure. I assumed rsd would fix that.

I think you can use Matt's utility to get back to .16 .
