Hello everyone last night I decided I was going to try either Liquid 2.5 or Justice after having 3g issues on Liberty .9. I went ahead and sbfd back to 340 rooted with z4 then installed Rom manger premium to do the install. I couldn't get my phone to boot into clockwork recovery to install the zip file unless I used a bootstrapper which for the Justice rom it said not use. I tried installing the liquid 2.5 anyways and just got stock in bootloop. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong!? I have flashed many roms before with no issues but these have me stumped.

After SBFing and rooting you do need to use bootstrap to boot into CWM intitially. Once you do that and have the ROM installed, in this case liquid, you no longer can use bootstrap because it will cause problems. At this point you can use ROM manager or the option on the power menu to get into recovery.

Are you still stuck in the bootloop? Now I am still pretty new to the DX scene so I dont know how much help I can offer from here. The only trick I know of is to boot into stock recovery and do a factory reset and wipe cache from there.

I am currently back on liberty .9. Do I use the droid x or 2 bootstrap? I couldn't get it to go into the stock recovery when it was in bootloop but I only tried the home button and power button.

You can use the bootstrap now. To go to liquid or any 2nd-init ROMs (cm7, justice, and miui) you will need to SBF back to froyo again from liberty GB though.

And as far as stock recovery, home and power works for me but I have never been on any GB leack. I have read that in some cases people who are on or have been on GB need to hold home + menu along with the power button to get into stock recovery.

Don't install 2.5, networkdata doesn't work, 3g and wifi broke. Install 2.4. Save yourself some headaches

My bad. Good point. I wasn't even thinking about that. I only had wifi issues but others did have data among other problems.
