It is very hard to "brick" an android phone. You most likely are just bootlooping.

here is an example of a fix:

Droid X: 2.3.32 Full SBF

look up what sbf's are. and then find the according one. someone with an x with fill in after me.

Define bricked.

Bootlooping? Stuck at the bootloader? Rebooting into recovery every time? Won't power on?

What model phone do you have? Because your stats say Droid and your talking about D2 or DX files.

 

[debdado]

I have a Droid X. My phone is stuck on a screen that says:

Bootloader
30.04
Err:A5,70,00,00,23

Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable

I have tried using RSD lite 4.8. RSD lite recognizes the phone. I have tried flashing two .sbf files, but they failed.
VZR_MB810_2.3.15_1FF_01.sbf
VZW_A855_ESD56_QSC6085BP_C_01[1].3E.01P_SW_UPDATE_03.sbf


Please advise. Thanks.

 

[furbearingmammal]

What build did you start from?

 

[debdado]

I was at 2.3.15. I was rooted and running Simply Stunning ROM.I think that answers your question. If not, let me know

 

[debdado]

I have a Mac with VMWare, so I go to Windows 7 to do the RSD lite work. I sometimes wonder if that is a problem. Also, my phone is now sometimes flashing a low battery message even though it remains connected to a power source. Please help. I love this phone.

 

[furbearingmammal]

You were attempting to update to 2.3.340? Did you step up to 2.3.320 first?

 

[debdado]

No I did not. I went directly to the 2.3.34. What can I do to fix this?

 

[furbearingmammal]

That's the problem. That step was in the instructions and is mandatory. As such, a 2.3.320 full SBF might just keep your phone from paperweight status.

TBH Patches: 2.3.340-System, Baseband, 2.3.340-Kernel, Bootloader

Make sure you're following those instructions after you flash the .320 SBF so you don't have any further problems.

 

[debdado]

The 2.3.30 did not flash on RSD. I got the following response with the RSD and "Happy Holidays," Phone waiting for re-enumeration: failed. Do I have a paperweight???

 

[furbearingmammal]

Do you have USB 2.0 ports on that computer?

 

[debdado]

Do you have USB 2.0 ports on that computer?

Yes I do have 2.0 ports. This is a mac pro, recent vintage.

 

[debdado]

Can we converse about this issue? I need answers and you may have them. I need to have a functioning phone soon. I can not afford to be without my droid x. Thanks

 

[furbearingmammal]

I asked about USB 2.0 because a lack of those is the number one cause of the failure you indicated. Number two is failure to run RSD Lite as an administrator, but I'd assumed you'd done that already because it's rare that RSD Lite will start without Admin access.

I'm trying to find something for you or someone with more experience with the X than I have to help you out. Give me a few minutes.
