I keep getting "Flashing Process Failed" whenever I click start. Is there something I'm missing?

Are you loading in bootloader and is USB Debugging turned on?

I am on GB. 588 and just booted into bootloader by holding power + volume down + camera button.

And I'm not sure you need USB debugging enabled. When in bootloader rsd lite should detect if proper drivers installed. I am sbfing with the sbf file on my computer to see what this Moto thing is about, so I can't verify debugging on GB, and can't remember if I had debugging on but I don't think so.

USB Debugging may not effect the system when SBF, is there any errors when flash fails because I haven't had any issues restoring to stock?

What? Don't get "is there any error when flash fails because I haven't had any issues restoring to stock?"

When a flash fails their sometimes is a error code that helps run down the nature of the problem, when you try to restore and it fails, do you see any trouble codes that can identify the nature of your issue?

Followed instructions step by step got my phone back to stock and I can not place any calls or even activate my phone. Did I do something wrong?

You'll need to reactivate your phone by dialing *228

I'm having issues getting RSD reconizing my phone. I'm on build 4.5.1_57_DX5-3. I can get the phone to load into bootloader, but stuck after that. Tried with and with debug mode. Any ideas?

Just tried the maderstcok way. After putting my phone into bootstrap recovery and it reboots, it goes to a black screen and stays there. Can see the back light is on, left it there for about 10-15 minutes. I can still reboot thephone and get it back to the build i have on there. Just need to wipe this stupid thing.

Sounds like you are trying to access recovery mode not bootloader and you are not using Droid 2 Bootstrap.. You need to press Volume up and down and power button..

I think Verizon's network was down after I rebooted my phone. It kept saying I was roaming and my phone number was 000-000-4058. I tried *228 5 times and it kept telling me to enter the 10 digit mobil phone number I was activating. After a while and told me that I needed credit card to make a call. I logged into my Verizon account and said that my information was not available at the time please try again. After 3 AM I rebooted my phone 1 last time and tried *228 again and it worked.

Hi folkes. This is the second time I have SBFd my phone. However this time it failed and said Code Currupt on the bootloader screen. RSD failed out at 99%. I checked my SBF file and its 434meg and not 435 meg.....


Any experience with this?

 

[wildman]

Sounds like you have a corrupt download, I would try to download again....
