Droid X .SBF

[derichio02]

.SBF is now available for Droid X! It will take you to .6 and will erase all your data. Use at your own risk.

I take no credit for this. And remember to use it wisely as there is always a possibility of bricking.

Droid X

As I have seen on other forums credit for this goes to Phoxus!

Tested and Verified with SBF_Flash Method Unzip First Credit to Phoxus! This is for fixing bricked devices or to restore to factory settings!

2. Build .604

Instructions (Linux)

1. Unzip the SBF and place VRZ_MB810_1.13.6.2_1FF_01.sbf and sbf_flash in the downloads folder

2. Put the Droid X in bootloader and connect it via usb.

3. Open a terminal window.

4.Change your directory: CD Downloads

5. Then type: ./sbf_flash VRZ_MB810_1.13.6.2_1FF_01.sbf

6. Wait and finish!



Windows Instructions (I have tested this as well as others in this thread. )

1. Download these files: RSD Lite, 32Bit Drivers or 64Bit and the SBF (Zipped)

2. Install the drivers that apply to your Operating System.

3. Move the pst_flash.ini file into the following folder --> Program Files/Motorola/RSDLite

6. Put your Motorola Droid X in bootloader mode. Now connect the Droid X via usb.

7. Click start and sit back.

Note: One time i encountered the "Ram Downloader" error at 99% finished it failed. I then clicked the show devices button while the phone was still connected and the phone did a long reboot and came out fine. I have also seen this on the OG Droid and had no problems after that so it should be fine on the DX

Also some have seen boot loops. Don't panic. Go into recovery and wipe your data and cache and you should be good to go. Thanks to all that have posted this!

Perhaps this is a dumb question, but does anyone have a link to some documentation on how to use it? (I mainly want to know for academic sake, as I don't want to use it right at the moment), sorry, Google search has failed me.

Can we use this SBF to downgrade back to 2.1, if we try upgrading to the leaked 2.2 that just came out? This is my first android phone. I know you can obviously use them to uprade, but downgrading I wasn't sure.

 

[derichio02]

Yes as far as I have read yes

it seems that the windows instructions to downgrade DO NOT work. Any help with this please?

What do you need help with because it works for me. I did it last night.

 

[anon(3850)]

followed the instructions exactly and when i open RSD Lite and pick file, boot into bootloader, then connect USB. nothing happens. am i missing a step? it actually never shows the device in RSD either.

 

[doctorlove316]

Did you move the pst_flash.ini file into the following folder --> Program Files/ Motorola/RSDLite?

Did the drivers install properly?

 

[anon(3850)]

yes i moved the file over to (x86) dir. had 4.6 on laptop i uninstalled and then did 4.7

reinstalled the 64bit drivers as well.

once i connect the usb should windows show a new connection or anything?

bootloader mode means just that doesnt it? volume down+camera+power right?

 

[anon(3850)]

this is rather annoying i have no idea what i could be missing.

does it need to run in compatibility mode if win7?

 

[doctorlove316]

I ran mine on Win 7. Are you running RSDLite as admin? I don't know if that would help but I did to be safe. If that doesn't help, it sounds like you have an issue with the drivers.

 

[derichio02]

I have done this as well and it worked. It failed for me before I replaced the pst.ini file. I am running win7 x64. I would uninstall everything and try again.
