Bootloader Only (Will Not Boot To O.S.) - Motorola Droid OG A855

Okay, here's what happened. I was out yesterday and it was really hot. I don't know if this is what did it, but yeah. Umm I was out with some friends and I noticed that it was in the bootloader. I don't know how, but it was. I was not really happy. It happened before, and I had no trouble getting it out of the loop and getting back to the O.S. But now, it won't do anything. I tried multiple .sbf files through RSD Lite v5.6 Muti-Flash / Multi-Flex Tool. The last two flashes I used the VZW_A855_FRG83G_QSC6085BP_C_01.43.01P_SW_UPDATE.sbf And no luck. I got an error code (0x70BE) During switching to BP Pass Through Mode. I got into the original recovery and tried to do a factory rest. But it says E: open dev and fails to do whatever this means. E:Reached max number of retries, giving up... E:Failed to init the engine! aux_status = 1. Bp clear failed. Please help this newbie.

No, haha. If it were, it would just boot to the bootloader, sorry, I didn't put that in the original post. It shows the Motorola Logo on startup. But it won't go to the boot animation. I have ClockWorkMod recovery installed. I hate SPRecovery.
 
I have flashed Clockworkmod onto it. Then I restored the previous ROM I had before all this happened. But I will check it out.

What recovery? I'd try to get a "pass" from rsd lite, then go from there. But we'll help you regardless

It passed. I flashed ClockWorkMod recovery. What should I do now? Should I flash a ROM of choice or a specified ROM from you?

if you can boot into recovery just download any rom of choice thats available

+1. There's some roms in that link I posted. They're called Bugless Beast

Okay, I got a tip from one of my hacker buddies, and he said that it might be the baseband that is causing all this trouble. Is that possible?
 
Where you able to flash a rom? If your droid is from Verizon, the basebands are correct.
