Root OTA Just Broke my X???

[mxsjw]

Getting an error after receiving and updating with the OTA.
I get the Red moto logo then I get

Bootloader
30.04
Err:A5,69,35,00,27




Battery OK
OK to program
Connect to USB
Data Cable

What the Funk?
Holding home and power does nothing, holding camera, volume up, and power does nothing...

Halp

Try holding down on the power button for a while, I think it will power it off and try to power up again.

Or pull the battery.

 

[mxsjw]

Did that...nothing...several times

 

[Metroidman]

I think you might have to SBF

 

[mhome]

So it always boots directly to bootloader. This isn't good.

I'd say call Verizon.

 

[mxsjw]

Well, nothing I can do tonight...we'll see what the gurus say in the morn. Nite nite all.

Did you previously do the maderstock.zip to go back to stock. I mean it could have been weeks ago but this may have something to do with it.

Nope that came out after I removed root.

I was rooted...I reverted to a saved nandroid that was bone stock then wiped the phone and started over like it just came out of the box. I'm pretty sure I had removed all traces of ever rooting this beech. I think I did it before 2.2.1 (.340?) came out, cause I know I accepted that OTA and it worked, but I'll have to go back in my posts and check???

 

[Aggie12]

Well if you can't get to any other menus and it boots straight to the bootloader then a SBF is in order sorry bud.

 

[mxsjw]

rooting section please?

 

[Kelmar]

rooting section please?

Done

what happens when you use maderstock.zip. I used it to go back to stock, now I'm having the same issue.

 

[VoidedSaint]

when you maderstcok on froyo and try to go to GB, it leaves you in perm bootloop, or your stuck at bootlogo, the only way to accept the GB OTA successfully for now, is to SBF back to stock

that would get you absolutely no where.

 

[mxsjw]

SBF Full or System only? Any other option at this point?

 

[someotherguy]

I would do a full.

Droid X SBF

While I'm waiting for the SBF's to download at work...what will I lose again?

All my settings? All my game progress? All my contacts (saved in google so there's that)? SBF "wipes" the phone right? Clears everything but the SD card correct? It's been a while since I dabbled in the rooting world and have forgotten what does what.

So doing a SBF wont remove data. However since it will be taking you back to froyo you will need to wipe data/cache anyway since the data isn't compatible. So everything will be gone but your sd card. It wont touch yhay

The OP didn't initially state that he was rooted prior. Thought he took the OTA running stock untouched Froyo.

 

[VoidedSaint]

he was rooted and removed root, problem is, he went to a nandroid of stock, that may have been what caused his problem i would think, somehow his system was still reading it was rooted and on a previous rom

there is a reason that all of the instructions for getting to GB had a step to SBF back to Froyo...and that is because maderstcok.zip DOES NOT work if you're trying to get back to Froyo to upgrade...

yeah...the SBF itself only flashes the system files...but you will likely have all sorts of problems with your existing data...so you gotta wipe it anyway...

this is why being rooted and having an app like Titanium is awesome...back up all your app data and re-do your backups every once and awhile...if anything goes wrong and you have to wipe...you can restore them

Just letting everyone know that this has me stuck in a boot loop as well. I had a rooted phone with the black glass theme. A couple months ago I wanted to go back to stock so I did the maderstock.zip. Thinking everything would be fine I jumped on the GB OTA update, but sure enough I get to the bootloader with the err:A5,69,35,00,27.
There should be a sticky to let people know not to upgrade if they did the maderstock.zip.
Now I guess it is time to learn how to SBF.

 

[mxsjw]

Is there a better place to download the sbf (full and system only)?...the linked ones are slow as funk and fail after 20 or so mb.
PM me if you don't want to release the info to the world please.
Thank you.

Its possible to use a clean nandroid to go to GB, i did for each leak i tested. But all these problems seem to require SBF.
