So I am trying to Flash the .sbf file to start over. I installed RSD Lite, installed the drivers and copied the pst_flash.ini over. It starts the flash and then gets to the status of "Switching to BP Pass" and then fails. What is going on. Right now my phone is useless.

Yes sir... currently running froyo on a rooted droid x.

woot woot:D

Yesterday was definitely something, I kept on trying it and I could never keep root, I flashed the sbf 6 times yesterday, I didn't have everything right till 1 o'clock yesterday and to add to it everyone kept asking me for the sbf

Anyways through my own trial and error I know how to help

Ok I am using RSD 4.7, I have the .sbf, I have the Motorola drivers. My phone will not flash, got a few different error messages. So I uninstalled the drivers, now I can not re install any drivers. Windows will not recognize the drivers as valid for my device. Someone PLEASE help. All I can do is boot into recover and the bootloader, other than that, nothing. My X is totally ****ed!

ok what happens when you try to install the drivers. How did you uninstall them

In the device manager I right clicked and chose uninstall, then restarted my computer. Now when I plug my phone in I get the pop up about the driver is needed. I find the file and with the 32 bit drivers from the motorola site and get an error saying they are not valid. If I have windows scan for drivers I get an error that there are no drivers installed for my phone
