got stuck on MOTO loop, just like when i tried the leaked version.
doing SBF now.
i wonder if it was cuz i had a different boot screen.
will update after. SBF/cache wipe/reset

Update : sbf not working like it did last time....now i get... on the X
MEM_MAP Blank
Service req'd
OK to program.

did the update somehow stop the old SBF file from working?
how long before a new SBF file is out?
need help.....thanks

i cannot get the phone to where i can select factory restore...

ericnail

The logistics of the update are unknown this early. Time will shed additional light on it's effects.

Have you tried doing a factory reset before attempting to SBF?

im stuck on the bootloader screen... holding down the power/home button isnt working.
also sent PM

ericnail

Try doing a battery pull then holding Home + Pwr.


EDIT:
Someone else seems to be having the same issue:
Bootloader Error Message


EDIT2:
After some research, Some people seem to be having success with restarting RSD Lite. Apparently in their case, RSD simply froze. Worth a try!

it has something to do with the. MEM_MAP Blank thats coming up on the phone..

Birdman is working on a fix but I guess Motorola really screwed us over...

@wicked_beav my "fix" wont work sadly, i was running tests to see if my idea would work when i figured out the signatures changed

ericnail

Hmm..

It still seems odd that only a few people have been having this issue.

Where did you get the SBF File? (I can only verify the one I personally uploaded)
Did you move the pst_flash.ini Patch to the RSD Directory?

I'm trying to find a common link between the two of you.

mchung53

i dont remember where I downloaded the sbf file but I have been using for a while now...

Froyo OTA bricked phone? - Droid Forum - Verizon Droid & the Motorola Droid Forum

it seems to be common issue for those trying to get back to 2.1 after getting the OTA

ericnail

Ohh after.

I didn't catch that. Out of curiosity, why go back to 2.1 from the OTA?

mchung53

I've been running the leaked version and wanted to see what the OTA was like...

ericnail

wait, so you mean you had the leak not the OTA?

I thought from what you said you had the OTA and were downgrading to 2.1 haha.

whoozthaboss

I'm having the same problem. It just got stuck on the M screen and never recovered from that... But my phone was completely stock and I did the official OTA

ericnail

you should try factory resetting (Hold Pwr+Home) and SBF Flashing, as you might not have this issue.

whoozthaboss

I'm getting a bootloader error a5 70 70 70 00 1f service required screen. It wont even let me get to the factory reset screen. I dont know what to do now

ericnail

Just FYI:

WARNING: DO NOT DOWNGRADE TO 2.1 SBF FROM THE 2.2 OTA, YOU WILL BE BRICKED! UNTILL WE GET A 2.2 SBF LEAK

whoozthaboss

Yeah this message came about an hour too late. I guess I'm screwed. Any idea how long this 2.2 SBF may take to come around?

ericnail

No, Usually like 2 months, however, Birdman is working on a fix and based on his history, I wouldn't say very long. He's very reliable.

whoozthaboss

Wow... Well I hope he can come through ASAP.

ericnail

Wait, I take that back..

This tweet:

Came BEFORE this one:
Please retweet, everyones about to wake up! DO NOT DOWNGRADE TO 2.1 SBF FROM THE 2.2 OTA, YOU WILL BE BRICKED! UNTILL WE GET A 2.2 SBF LEAK

I'm Afraid that means that all those with this issue are going to have to wait until the sbf is actually leaked.. which means an employee with access to the sbf would have to leak it to the public.

bmwrin1990

same problem here...was posted on droid forums that hopefully the vzw stores will have a current 2.2 sbf to program it...
i hope so, because i cant use my phone

rizzy

I had the same issue with the stuck on "M" screen and all I did was pull the battery out and put it back in and it booted fine.

in2uition

I did a cache wipe, factory reset and finally a battery pull before everything worked lol


I'm glad I backed up my apps before doing this upgrade.

just woke up and it looks like theres still no fix..(dang) I'm gonna suck down a can of mountian dew and hit the verizon store and play dumb! this sucks!!

EDIT: went to Verizon, the rep looked on his PC said there was at least a 100 similar problems and no fix. sending out a replacement, 2 day fedX...

Yeah I called and they did overnight shipping. Said it will be here by tommorow with 2.2 preloaded on it.

2horses

srsly? Wow, hope my install goes okay. I am not pulling, will wait for a push... did run a complete backup just in case, though.

Old Man

My DX was stock 2.1, no root, and it still stuck on the Motorola logo during the OTA update. Battery pull and even a fresh battery did not help, which apparently had solved the others people had brought in to the store I stopped by, so I also have a new phone coming (however, I had to pay for overnight rather than second day delivery).

At one point they asked if I had moved the phone during the update and I responded that I had moved it from one room to another. The Verizon rep said that they had encountered problems with previous Froyo updates for the Droid and Incredible when people moved the phones during the process. Apparently any glitch in the network or switch in the tower can cause this type of problem. So they suggested that I leave the phone sitting in one location and on a charger for any future updates.

2horses

Wonder what they'll do to fix it? Wouldn't a factory reset bring it back to life, in a pre-2.2 state?

Pointguard1122

Factory reset will not work. I am sure Verizon has all the tools needed to flash the new 2.2 bootloader and image. They will not flash it back to 2.1 anymore.

bobomatic

got replacement phone today it was 2.1. did update, after it installed the moto logo was only on for maybe a minute! the droid eye, took a couple. but this was a LOT faster then the first update on my phone (old phone) i had to factory reset on the first update. its got me thinking that my first phone was possessed! but now im running a rooted 2.2 X..

enibudy

not sure if this is gonna help the SBF issue....https://sites.google.com/site/motosbf/droid-x-sbf-files

you can find all SBF files from 2.1 to 4.5.621 here.

ylexot

Well, since the thread is over a year old, I'm guessing they resolved their issue

eperrier

This happen to me after i did the OTA update 621 has there been a way to fix this issue?

droid reaper

Everyone who has got stuck in boot loop i have your answer..and if u attempted to change roms but failed i have the answer to that too.. 1 u need rsdlite easy as typing it in to my friend google.... Then u need to look up your phone.... For ex.. Droidx u type droidx stock rom and what verision u wanna use.. Put the file into rsd lite and boom!!!;d also if that fails .. Look up roms ... From same type of phone diff carrier sometimes helps...
