So I was running Rubix, then flashed the leaked Rooted version of GB(like any other ROM) with no issues and had used it for a day. Wanted to go back to Rubix, and followed the same process only to have the phone reboot to the new Motorola logo and stay there. I cant get into recovery. I get to bootloader, says Battery ok, ok to program, transfer mode usb, but cant get RSD to see my phone to SBF. WTF did I just do to my phone. Did I brick it, what should I try. Thanks.
 
Are you running RSD as administrator? Are you sure its not seeing it?
 
What version of RSD Lite are you using? I just sbf'd the .340 file using RSD Lite 4.9 on my X 2 times today with no problem.

Do you have the latest and proper Moto USB drivers installed on your computer?
 
I know this might not help you because you might not have access, but I spent like 6 hours trying to get RSDLite to work and finally gave up. I decided to use Linux and it took like 8 minutes with zero headache. Even if you've never used it before, there are some really good instructions here: Complete Droid X .sbf Flashing Guide

It conveniently includes Linux installation instructions as well. Honestly, I've been using Ubuntu for doing my phone things ever since, but I have some experience with Linux so I was pretty comfortable with it. It's just a suggestion though :)
 
Did you hard reset after install, after sbf it usually requires you to enter recovery mode and do a format/wipe. Power off and press Home and Power and format/reset.

Power Device Off First.....



1. Hold Home Button and press power

2. Screen will show a Android with a triangle with astrick

3. Let Go of Home Button and Power

4. Press Search Button (Far Left Button)

5. A blue menu will show at top of page, scroll to Format Device

6. Select Yes to verify

7. Allow format to complete (Information at bottom of page will go through a few steps)

8. Once Format is complete Blue Menu will show at top again, select Reboot


Note: Use volume up and down to select opinion and use camera button as Enter,,,
 
Sorry. Have been away from any computers for the last half of the day. So yes, I am the admin on the computer and I have been using RSD 4.7. The last time I used it was to get ready for 2.2, but it worked then. As far as I know I have all the drivers, but how can I double check. Which SBF should I use?

Full 2.3.340 Official sbf
 
Life is good again!!!

Thanks to everyone that replied. I was a dumbass and didnt double check that Administrator was actually checked under properties. I actually had .34 SBF just thought that maybe it was part of my problem hence the question about which one. Regardless, the X is back up and running. Now back to root. And then the question of whether to get back to Rubix or wait for the official GB. What do you think?:D
 
The GB leak is running so great for me I wouldn't wait on the official. I had so much confidence in it I actually put it on the misses X, now that's saying something :eek:
