Need help!

Ok, so I've been reading all these threads and non of it is actually working on my phone. The problem: Wife's DX locks up on any form of typing-facebook, SMS, email, market, etc. In the middle of typing it just closes out. So, I figured I'd redo everything on it to see if I can fix it. I've downloaded a million files so far, nothign is working as the threads state:

New Leak and Official upgrade Path to Gingerbread

And the thread here from step 1 to complete from froyo up. Wife's phone is currently:

4.5.588.mb810.verizon

2.3.3

BP_c_01.9.12P

2.6.32.9-g0bae333

4.5.2_57_dx5-18

I've downloaded and bought drop 2 bootstrap. I've downloaded SBF, z4, rsd, etc. When I follow the instructions, I get into bootloader, start RSD, find the file, but RSD never see's the phone connected. At least it never does when it's off. If it's on I can see it and access the SD. I did enable debugging too. So, IDK what else to do. I have tried to access recovery but it fails...power + home..quickly shows a unboxing icon then the little android toon with a triangle with exclamation point. Nothing else after that. Any ideas?

This is what I had to use to get GB on my phone.

Droid X Gingerbread 4.5.588 Rooted Installation Guide (THIS IS THE LATEST VERSION) - Droid X Releases - AllDroid Public Board

Also, there's a new sbf program out...

App of the Day: SBFportable - Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog

That should help

Factory reset might help

Latest drivers from Moto?

It's workign now, as suggesting I did a factory wipe and started the whole process. Only problem I may have is z4root. I clicked on it, its in the "working" stage saying running exploit in order to obtain root access at bottom, but its been at least 10 mins and still working. Thinking its bugged...

Try un-installing Z-4, then re-install. But reboot after the install before you try to run it.

I backed out of it and restarted it, worked perfectly, I'm now installing the 588 "parts". Thanks for the replies and help!!

z4 always gave me that hiccup as well. when you get to .595 don't forget to grab the xda netflix app too!
