Hi, I am sorry you are having so much trouble. Hopefully I can provide the steps and help to guide you into successfully recovering your phone from this boot error.

From what I understand you're receiving the following error: "failed to boot 2. starting rsd mode"

I have encountered this error a few times while developing MinimalX. Fortunately, you should be able to recover this using the proper method.

First, turn off your device and plug it in. You will need a certain amount of battery life to perform an SBF without error, so, take advantage of these download times to increase your charge using a wall charger.

Next, you will need to download and install DX2 Drivers and RSD Lite.

You will also need the SBF file, which can be downloaded here:

SBF File

(note: be sure to unzip the file)

Once everything has downloaded and installed successfully, unplug your device from the USB. Plug your USB into your computer only​. Then, run RSD Lite with administrator permissions. Browse to and select your SBF file (VRZ_MB870_DTN-14.8_1FF_01.sbf). Then turn on your device, and when you get the "starting RSD mode" prompt, plug in the usb cord from computer to phone. RSD Lite should then recognize your phone, and from there, simply, press start and leave the device and your computer alone until completion (not necessary, but extra precaution). Once this finishes and the phone boots, I highly recommend also doing a factory reset in settings > privacy.

I hope you the best and that this is able to restore function toyour phone. If you need any additional help, feel free to PM me or post in this thread.

Happy DROID-ing!
[Motorola Droid X2] magneticzero:
Ran into this problem yesterday. Had issues with RSD Lite. Make sure you have the latest version or it will fail. Has to be version 5.3.1 and NOT 5.0 or whatever.

then it should work without a hitch.

Just a reminder, you will have your apps and stuff still installed including SuperUser. You will have to run Gingerbreak again to reroot to add the files back into the proper location, SuperUser doesn't work even with the .apk installed by itself. Just fyi.

Yeah Don't Try And Flash The Atrix In Rom Manager, It Will Give You That Error Too.
[Motorola Droid X2] spr0k3t:
Apparently there's a link floating around pointing to RSDLite 5.0 renamed and hacked to show 5.3.1. While the download says 5.3.1, the install says 5.3.1, it's still only 5.0.

Thanks again to those working to make the X2 a better phone. Perhaps we can get GB up and running on this thing before the OTA is released. Wouldn't that be egg-on-the-face.

hello,

i finally go for cyanogen, i was on french official froyo, but so many lags and force close and reboots, i was fed up...

i wanted to thanks the faq in the development part but not enough post to be allowed to...

anyway, the problem is that I don't know how setting up my hotmail account, always state that it is impossible to connect with the server ?

anyone to help, that would be sad to go back to froyo for that...

Did someone try the Exchange-connection for hotmail? I use this with the official froyo but there seems to be a bug in this function. My battery gets empty in about 6-8 hours with acivated exchange-sync because the defy keeps downloading and uploading like hell (about 30 mb per day) for unknown reasons.

I already did a fullwipe but it didn't help.

I was just wondering if a custom rom works better with that...

I'm using it on gingerbread CM7RC0 and i'm not having any kind of issues.

Just in the last few days I jave been getting error messages when trying to install some apps fromt he market.

One was a game, and some have been updates to apps I have already installed.

(GPS Tools being one of them)

Anyway the error says

I cannot find any information on this unknown error, so any news will be appreciated.

Thanks in advance

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scoobysnacks:
hmmm that issue used to come from roms that had a memory issue.

Try unmounting your sd card (from sd card settings) and then downloading the app with it unmounted, to see if that fixes the problem.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gregbradley:
Cheers,

If its an sd card problem that might fit in with another problem that has just surfaced.

All my apps on the sd card appear now to be unistalled and TB cannot restore them.

Maybe the problem is with my sd card, I may have to back it up and format.

Cheers.

I installed TouchWiz 4.5 from the xda forum. It was fine the first 2 days then on the 3rd day the phone would seem to want to force close but then turn off since TW was the primary launcher. Later that day I switched over to a custom launcher and it never turned off on its own.

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
So are you asking for help on tw, our have you already settled in with another launcher and no longer need any help? i would try fixing permissions in recovery and trying again if you want to keep tw. also, what rom are you on?

I had a similar problem when installing Audiophile 1.7. TW would force close on me like mad. I eventually installed a different launcher which seemed to work fine.

I'm sure it's free. The issue is that, like with other apps like this one, the other person has to be using Viber as well. It isn't just free international calling and text to anyone.

Hi guys

I created a simple windows batch script for some normal adb commands

Like adb push/pull/install.

It just requires Android SDK installed on PC

Will add some more options as , when and if required

Though Initially I made only considering my phone ,I suppose it will work on all androids except the option of backing up frameworks.Didnt test on any other phone.

For Full help/tutorial about script

http://galaxy551.wordpress.com/gearloose/

Place gearloose.bat in any folder .

Before transferring execute option 2 which just makes required folders

Cheers

EDIT 1:

Gearloose now in Linux bash flavor too

Download gearloosetux.zip

Now with a make-do GUI for windows

Now gearloose in make do GUI

I used a free Installer project from The Wizard's Apprentice 1.5 from source forge

Thanks to Dion Nicolaas for creating this software

This is beta level and doesnt provide the same functions of Gearloose

Framework support is not in gearloose

Nor is batch app install and single data/system apps backup for now

Antivirus software raise flags while executing GearlooseGUI.bat .

But you guys can check the script and I assure it just a false positive.

thanks.
[XPERIA X8 General] eagleeyetom:
If you used Root Explorer, you have trouble. Probably the best solution is to re-flash stock ROM with SEUS. You might also try using .sin files decryption from flashtool files, but it's a little difficult.
[XPERIA X8 General] squirell:
i used the wrong expression, i didn't delete them, i just uninstalled them. according to what you thought, i guess the .apks still exist on my phone. but i don't know where. :/

or don't they?
[XPERIA X8 General] eagleeyetom:
Check in system/app using Root Explorer. If you won't find them, they're probably deleted and hard to restore.
[XPERIA X8 General] Mr. Hat:
What ROM do you use? If it's cooked ROM, you can get the .apk simply by unziping the ROM archive, you've downloaded in system/app.
[XPERIA X8 General] squirell:
I have found the .apks.

I have installed them but nothing. I tried deleting the data and reinstalling but nothing. I believe they would show up in menu if i deleted them completely and installed them again. But in the app manager i can only stop the process and wipe the data, i can't uninstall..

I have uninstalled them with another app, fast uninstaller for root.
[XPERIA X8 General] codfreak:
Flash the ROM´s update.zip again.

or restore a backup of the same ROM with advanced restore, so that you only restore /system.
[XPERIA X8 General] squirell:
wow, that's clever. :P i flashed the whole ROM, never thought of only restoring the /system. :/

but it's solved.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Dear customer,

We have received the RMA application form with the serial number: B5Oxxxxxx. The form has been rejected.

You have advised us of the below:

"Dock drain issue. Dock only to be returned to have issue fixed. Please advise if this is the case as I read elsewhere only the dock is required in order to resolve this."

Unfortunately nothing was mentioned on troubleshooting.

Therefore we have to advise you to attempt the below:

(1) Make sure your software is updated to 8.2.3.13 or later.

(2) Dock the Pad into the keyboard dock.

(3) Go to [Settings] and select [Screen]? [MobileDock Battery saving mode]

(4) Press power button on the Transformer Pad to make the unit go to sleep.

(5) With the option checked, if your unit does NOT wake up with the tap of a keyboard, the new battery saving mode is enabled and working.

(6) If your unit wakes up by a key press in both options (when the box is checked and unchecked), you have the earlier design.

(7) If #6 is the result and you also require the new feature, please resubmit the RMA application form on the link: http://uk.asus.com/rma

Best regards,

Asus UK

---

Well the problem with that RMA form is twofold. For one thing there is a 150 character limit and secondly if you enter any characters like ( or ! or url's it will reject the submission. It's complete crap! I wanted to point to their own url aknowledging the issue in the description but it won't even allow that. I already discussed the issue in my emails to them but the plebs who read the RMA are obviously not reading the support emails that go with it.

Terrible support.

BTW it meets the criteria of numbers 6 and 7. I tried quoting that but it would not accept the form with the ( and ) characters. I do not know if fixing that also fixes the battery drain issue also though.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
(5) With the option checked, if your unit does NOT wake up with the tap of a keyboard, the new battery saving mode is enabled and working.

What's funny about that is that option does NOT work period, at least it doesn't for me, enabled or disabled I am able to wake mine up with any key press and there was a thread on this with others complaining awhile back of same issue.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
So could this be causing the battery to drain too fast where both the dock and tab are not staying in sleep mode correctly?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] darkonex:
I imagine it's possible, and honestly I haven't seen alot of people complain of that battery saving option not working, only once actually. I'm now curious how many of you also find when this is enabled it's no different than disabled, it still lets you hit any key to wake it? I did get an email back from Asus just this morning from when I complained to them about the battery drain and a couple others, I replied back to them pointing out this problem as well.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] rilot:
Enabled or disabled, it's the same for me. Keyboard will always wake the tablet up.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Thor_Asgard:
I've just test it, and even with the "power save" option check, the tablet wake up from sleep mode !

edit : Can this option be fixed sy software update ?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] CptJimmy:
Ditto for me, the checkbox makes no difference.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Well they have sent an email now saying they will pick it up tomorrow for RMA. However they did not answer my question as to whether I had to send back both the tab and dock so I am going to just send the dock back and hope for the best. If they ask me for the tab I will have to think about it. If they return the dock with no repair done then no loss there either really (I do not use the dock that much to worry about it. I would rather it was fixed though just in case).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] JoTeC:
Checked here, as per directions, TF will not wake up by pressing any keys on dock/keyboard with battery save selected. It will wake up if battery save deselected.

TF and Dock both B6 models

3.1 Build 8.4.4.11
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Well that seems to be VERY telling. The B60 models appear to have fixed that issue which most likely means the battery drain issue is also fixed on B60 models. I wonder if I can get away with just sending back the dock though. We shall see.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] courghan:
I got the same reply to my rma. My tablet does not wake up pressing a key with that option on. It's a b50k dock. Yesterday though the battery level dropped by 25% in 5 hours with the tablet docked and WiFi off...today only by 2% over the same length of time, and in both cases with the battery saving option on.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] AustinMartin:
I have a B50K dock, and this mode is working for me(when checked, doesn't wake up).
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
Hmm. That muddies the water somewhat then.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Bob Smith42:
I believe there will be some users with dock labeled B60 that actually have a B50 functioning dock. We have consistent reports from a couple users of this problem.

But, this is likely more of a problem of ASUS quality control. ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer General] ISSMER:
I have a B50K dock and the battery saving mode works. I have not used the dock yet enough to know if that will ultimately improve the battery life.

Have you tried to monitor the dock battery:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1112391
[Eee Pad Transformer General] thaddyusmaximus:
undocked and redocked. Now the key presses on the dock doesn't turn on my transformer. But my battery still gets drained. I got a B40 dock and B40 tablet.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] thaddyusmaximus:
Nevermind. For some reason when powers plugged in to the dock keypresses on the dock doesn't wake it but does wake it when i'm not plugged in.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
Were your tablet fully charged yesterday ...? 25% over 5 hours seems a bit much to me.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] andyxover:
I don't think this is quality control issue,

from what I've gathered from the web and this forum,

it seems like there are 2 different kind of B50 out there,

the battery drain issue isn't really an "Issue",

I think they purposefully made some current go through the keyboard so the tablet is able to wake on key Press.

and maybe they change the design after people complain about the battery drain problem, so they change the design.

B40, B50, B60 doesn't mean anything, it just means the month the machine's manufactured...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] deadman3000:
That makes sense. B60 being June.
