[Q] droid x2/milestone x2 is freezing on doal core startup screen - Motorola Droid X2

My droid x2 freezes on the dual core start up screen every time i try to turn it on, i pulled the battery out the first time this happened, and I've already went into recovery mode and did the (wipe data/factory reset) option, and i also wiped my cache partition, but still my phone freezes on boot. my phone started doing this when i was using "mcTweaker" and a notification popped up and it said i need to reboot, but as the same time i hit reboot system in the options menu. when i did this the phone cut off and since then it always freezes on the dual core screen when i start it up. i am also still on the stock rom and am rooted. any help or tips on how to fix this is highly appreciated.

if you can still can get to recovery, and have a backup, restore it
as you have wiped data, that is unlikely, unless you flashed re-recovery
sbf is your last option

Ok my bad, i feel lyk such a noob... i just wasnt waiting long enough for the starting RSD protocol support thing. Problem solved

---

great, just don't flash wrong sbf
Droid x2 and Milestone x2 have different sbfs, because they are different devices, different radios

---

ok for some reason it stays on the (Starting RSD Protocol Support) screen and never advances onto anything else D: is there a fix for this or is my completely screwed. i thought since the thread i read said it takes 3-5 minutes to start it up thats what my problem was, but i was wrong, the thing just simply wont start up... sorry for false assumption

---

yes that's it "Starting RSD Protocol Support"
is all is does, till you start rsd lite, doesn't change till half way through sbf or more

---

Ok thank you sooo much, this was frustrating me since last friday and i think the rsd lite i had was the problem, i went and downloaded a different one and now its working ... once again thanks for your help, ill get back to ya if i mess anything else up haha

now when i try to do it it says (error switching phone to BP Pass through mode) idk what to do or why its doing this

its a driver issue
a couple of options
use the moto drivers program
or ezSBF for x2, no drivers needed
both in my list of stuff
sd_shadow's list of links for Droid FAQs, SBF, Rooting, ROMs.... https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Goawxdx_UBF4Y8lqzHYWf8Ha3yUcRK4faq0UWIlXLWA/edit
also the fix for the d2 was
" Note: Under certain circumstances (especially when using Windows Vista and Windows 7) there might be a problem with not all device drivers being installed correctly. In such case, the flashing process will abort, and your phone won't be able to boot normally. RSDLite shows the following error message:
Error switching phone to BP Pass through mode
To get around this issue, once you get a Device driver could not be installed message from Windows, don't close RSDLite nor power off the phone. Start Motorola Driver Installer once again, and let it finish. Then if RSDLite didn't timeout yet, head to Device Manager, find the Unknown device, and in its properties' Driver tab click Update driver…. It should now install normally. If RSDLite timed out and you got an error from it, just repeat the SBF process. The driver should now be present, and the flashing process will finish normally.
Once the flashing process is complete, RSDLite will tell you to “power the phone up manually”. In most cases you won't be able to do this straight as instructed: the phone will be bootlooping. Take the battery out, and then place it back in. Press the lock/power button: the phone should boot normally. Close RSDLite. Disregard the warning about flashing not being completed since your phone has already booted into Android.
In case you still get bootloops after pulling the battery, wipe data in Android Recovery. "

alrighty im bout to try that, but if that doesnt work is it the last option for me... and if i brought it back to the store would they fix it?

unlikely that verizon would fix, rooting voids warranty
they may replace, if you tell them you don't know what happened
if you bought insurance, that will cover it

your holding volume up, when powering on, to boot to 'starting rsd support'?
