HELP!! Droid x won't boot past the droid logo

Just go get the SBF but turn off your phone! If the battery is less then 50% you went be able to do it! That is your safest bet!

Here is the link to the SBF guide... This is what you will need to do to get back to stock and start over... Just like CD95YJ said make sure next time you have a stock back up... There is a link to a tutorial in my signature on how to install bootstrap recovery and use it to make a backup..

Everyone is so quick to SBF... He could screw his phone royally... He already admitted he has no idea what SBF is...

I have told people the same steps I told him over and over... Sometimes it works.... Sometimes it doesn't... But jumping right to sbf IMO is premature...

What do u suggest I do? Do u think I can bring it back to verizon and be like it just did this outa no where? I mean I did wipe the data and cache like u told me to.

NOOOOOOO! DO NOT TAKE IT BACK TO VZW, THEY WILL VOID YOUR WARRANTY!!!!

It doesn't require much smarts to see your phone was rooted, any tech worth his pay will figure it out quick.

It won't charge in the bootloader.. Without seeing exactly where your phone is I can't say for 100% that it will or won't... If you don't have another charged battery I would say shut it down, let it charge for an hour or so and then do the SBF.. If you run out of battery you will just have to charge yours or buy another one until you get the device up and running again..

Ditto, Ditto, Ditto, If the rep has half a clue he will know what is going on... Just do the SBF and you will be fine..

If it wont charge you will have to either use a friends phone to charge your battery, buy a wall charger, or my least favorite option hack up a USB cord to trick your phone into thinking it has a fully charged battery (I have never done it nor do I recommend it - the USB hack that is)

Yes... Just follow the video in my signature for a bootstrap tutorial... If you follow that guide for SBF you should be just fine..
