Contacts issue?

[phlux]

Hey folks,

I just bought a Droid X for $60 on eBay listed as "mint condition," except for a software issue. Evidently, the phone has an issue with contacts. Seller says you can not add or delete conacts. Has anyone heard of this? Can I fix it with an SBF? I have plenty of expperience with my Droid 2. I feel that if I can fix that, I got the phone for a steal.

Thanks!

Yeah, I'm definitely thinking that should do it. Ever heard of that issue?

No i really haven't but an sbf should fix just about any software related issues which is what is sounds like. You got a great deal on it hopefully everything works out for you.

UPDATE: SBFing worked, although I had major issues completing the SBF. Now on a great Droid X running Liberty 3

Using RSD_Lite 5.6, bootloader 30.03, I could not get past the "Error downloading RAM..." error described at http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-x-rooted-help/80551-sbf-keeps-failing.html. I tried the suggestions in the forum, and it still would not work. Interestingly enough, I managed to get a Froyo SBF to work, but it would not detect a Software Update, so I tried to SBF to .602. I got to .602 even though the error still persisted in RSD Lite, but the System Update (I assume to .605) failed, and I was unable to detect it again. I'm thinking I should probably install the 30.04 bootloader to resolve these issues, but I'm rooted and running Liberty 3 just fine now. I just don't look forward to my next SBF on this thing given how the first one went

Another update: updated bootloader to 30.04, and flashed .602 perfectly. Took the OTA to .605 and am back on Liberty3.

Great. That bootloader update zip is nice. You had to do some work but your good to go now.
