so i used rsd lite to flash the sbf. both of them finish but my phone still wont boot up? can some one please help
 
Actually that's the android version. I'm refering to the system version which would either be 2.2.2 or 2.3.20

I ask because it looks like you sbf'd 2.2.2 and if you did that over 2.3.20 that would be bad.

What is the phone doing? Which SBF are you trying to flash?

at first it wouldnt boot up. not even (x+power). and its DROID2_X6_2.2.20_SHADOW_BP_C_01.09.05P_P2_USERBLD_SECURE.sbf

You have already installed 2.3.20, so you can't go back to 2.2.20.

You need to download 2.3.20. It will get to 99-100%, then fail, which is normal. Once that's done, pull the battery, put it back in and it should bring you back to bootloader. At that point you flash the 2.35 bootloader.

Once the bootloader has been flashed, it will load back up to the stock VZW firmware.

Huh? You're getting a blank screen? Does it say anything at all, whether it be a logo or something?

For reference, the first boot-up can take five minutes or so.

You shouldn't boot up holding "X". Once you've flashed the 2.35 bootloader, it should reboot normally.

And give me a few minutes, and I'll install AIM.
