Does RSDLite finish 100% successful and then can't boot? Did you try it without sdcard?
I guess that you have tried to install 2.2 on your XT, and you are in boot loop (M logo), but you can enter bootloader mode, and if you do RSD lite shows imei, and other data something like this: "000x000000x00"?
some XT720 have problems with open recovery (possible?) and if you flash OR and put 2.2 on it you will brick your mobile (I managed to do that, and a few other people, and unfortunately only solution is motorola repair center - you can't unbrick it)
for others:
I think that you can test if your mobile is gonna be bricked in a simple way...
root your phone, download "ledmeknow" from market, and if there isn't detected any LEDs then don't flash 2.2 on your phone
EDIT
I see that you can enter open recovery...if you can, then you are safe
just wipe all data from it, flash new sbf and you will be fine
Not replying back so must have resolved it.

How can you use OpenRecovery after flashing a SBF? The hijacked sh will be missing... after flashing a stock sbf you have to root the phone and install the OpenRecovery hijacks. If you can't boot, how do you do that? So there must be something wrong with your drivers or RSDlite. You could also try sbf_flash on Linux or MacOS if you think RSDlite is messing up.
On my Milestone XT720 always have to use the Motorola Recovery to do a factory reset after flashing the Motoroi XT720 sbfs because it won't boot immediately after flashing. Not sure if that could be a problem for flashing Motoroi on Motoroi, though.

It's like 4:15am in Korea... he'll be back
I have a few questions of my own regarding that issue. I have Dexter's ROM installed on my Motorola Milestone XT720.
Everything works fine, even though I've had to reinstall the ROM along the way.
Total noob question:
Can I boot my XT720 into recovery mode if it won't boot up at all? (Motorola logo stays on screen, nothing else happens)
I have a recent boot/system/data backup in my nandroid folder, what's the quickest way to recover it when android won't start up?
Basically I seem to have this problem here:

I have the image but I need an .sbf file for RSDlite ... or does that not make sense?

download RSD Lite + stock ROM, then flash it back to normal
and then you can try again loading the Dexter 2.2 ROM
make sure to follow Dexter's instructions

Pull the battery.
If it doesn't help, go to the stock recovery and perform “wipe data/factory reset”.
Just in case you don't know how to get to the stock recovery, here: http://droid.koumakan.jp/wiki/Android_Recovery
grrr it says E:cant't open /cache/recovery/command

Are you sure the SBF process was completed successfully?
Speaking of which, did you SBF booting the phone into the SBF loader?
The errors you saw are ok simply do wipe cache data and you should be fine.

Close RSDlite, and just take the battery out for a second. The phone will boot normally.

Hi, Have you tried Manual reset to clear the data/factory this sorted my install of Cm7 the other day when it boot looped.
To Manually Reset
If there are significant problems with your device or you are not able to follow the steps above please use the following process to manually reset the phone:
Turn off phone
Press Power key + Camera Key + GalleryKey to power on the phone and bring up the recovery screen
When the Triangle/Exclamation point screen appears, press Volume Up + Gallery Key down and tap the camera key to show the recovery menu.
When the recovery window appears, use the volume up/down keys to navigate the menu and the camera key to enter your selection.

How are you getting to the bootloader to flash sbf with broken volume up? As far as I know bootloader is volume-up + camera while powering on. Maybe it's only partially broken?

hey guys i found something http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1210343 can i use easyadb to boot from bootloader to openrecovery coz im not so familiar android sdk.
i run adb or terminal but my phone is not recognised i already installed usb drivers for xt720. any steps to boot my phone in recovery using pc?
Which sbf are you using?
I think it's possible to create a synthetic sbf that wipes /data and /cache, must many of them should already do that. There's always a risk that the reboot is caused by something else father than lack of wipe. IIRC this usually happen after boot animation.
Anyway, I'm wondering if you're trying to flash the modsbf--that will never boot after sbf.
i used us brightpoint and all other sbf but still it keeps rebooting after m logo.wont go through bootanimation.i havent tried to flash modsbf. mioze wer can i get the synthetic sbf that wipes all? if ever it exist can u link me the sbf?
thnx in advance

The brightpoint is already a full flash that should wipe /data and /cache (it contains empty /data and /cache). Some of the Korean ones are service flashes that don't wipe data which is why I asked. (Don't bother with modsbf--you must have working stock recovery for that to work) The idea would be to use sbf-depacker to create a sbf that only has data.img and cache.img taken from eg the brightpoint, but I don't think that will help here since brightpoint doesn't work... I assume you've tried flashing and booting with the sdcard and sim removed?

First off I am sorry for posting this, however I DID use the search tool. I recently got a USA spec Wifi only Xoom. It came with 4.1.1 preinstalled. I have sucessfully unlocked the bootloader.
My problem is this. I cannot gain root or even get CWM installed. I have tried oneclick, i have tried cmd prompt. I have followed every guide I can find to a "T". Is there something missing, is it an issue with Jellybean being preinstalled?
Use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468298 to get CWM installed (and when you reboot from fastboot flashing the recovery image, and this is very important, DO NOT LET IT FULLY REBOOT INTO THE OS. You have to get into recovery in the next boot or the OS will just overwrite it with the stock recovery and you will just have to go back into fastboot and flash the recovery again.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30464067&postcount=408 has the root once you get CWM installed.

Thanks for the reply, however this is one of the utilities I have tried,..
Here is a bit more info.
I am running windows 7 64bit if it makes a difference. Whenever I get the device into fastboot and try to flash anything, it just hangs at the original fastboot screen. I have let it sit there from 3 hours and eventually I have to reboot it. The Lord AIO Tool you linked just gives me and error message that the device is not a 2.2/2.3 device. If I were at home I would take a screenshot.
Could my bootloader be corrupt? The device still boots up and runs jellybean fine, but I am not loving the stock experience thus far...
Thanks again for the links!
Actually sounds like your drivers aren't right. I will look them up and link them when I get home
Try installing the driver from http://developer.motorola.com/tools/usb_drivers/, rebooting your pc, and try fastboot again. If that still doesn't work, then there may be something wrong with your pc setup OR your Xoom, not sure at that point.

Do you have a custom recovery installed as well...?
I know you said you are rooted... if you have a custom recovery you can try doing a factory reset, may fix the issue - note you will lose any user settings and data/apps.
If you are on stock recovery, I'm not sure what the issue would be - you "should" be able to take OTA's using stock recovery. You cannot take OTA's if you are on a custom recovery.
i followed this guide to root photon....http://theunlockr.com/2012/09/07/how-to-root-the-motorola-photon-q-4g-smartphone/

Looks like that site has you flash CWM, so your answer would be "yes"....
In which case you can't take OTA's. You should be able to restore your backup in CWM, which I'm wondering if you took...?
If you don't have a backup, you can try doing a factory reset and booting... otherwise you might have to completely reset the device using a FXZ file and RSD Lite.

I would start with factory reset, then move to RSD if you still have issues.
Start with the least painful, and move to the most.

Try putting the phone into fastboot mode, and see if RSD picks up the device then.
I believe if you turn off the device, and turn it back on holding the camera button you'll get some boot options.
ok went into fastboot and click on fastboot and phone just rebooted and now its just on the warning bootloader unlocked..

So you hold power + vol down until the phone shuts off. Then hold power + camera (quickly) after it shuts down. It should turn on to a menu, hit volume down until you select "AP Fastboot". Then vol up selects, and you should see the AP Fastboot Flash Mode screen...
