(Let it boot, it can be some 5 minutes. Not yet. No need to click anything yet)

2. Browse to the folder where you saved the SBF_FLASH by windows.
Copy the location address. You need it for Terminal below

-----[Stop here for the hour, I will tell you guys how to apply update.zip after a break]-----

[Background and Scenario]
*For who with Code Corrupt. / Bootloader stuck / M logo stuck

Dear all, lately I got my XT610 bricked.
Reason:

Originally I was on 4.6.8 (newest rom). I was then doing the worst thing on earth,
I SBF-ed the whole thing with a 2.26 sbf with RSD-Lite (as how we flash sbf as usual)

Night mare:
1. PC: RSD of every version would not recognise my phone. Driver of every version neither work.
Linux: some people may have heard of sbf_flash under linux. Flashing was ok under linux. Hoever the phone just still wont boot.

2. My phone starts with Bootloader code corruption. Nothing works, RSD wont work. As mentioned, I tried with Linux sbf_flash command (google around what is sbf_flash, plenty of tutorial/explanation around)=], the flashing process was fine but the phone just stuck in M logo for minutes, then bootloader appears again with error code. "ERR :00 1d 00 00 xx" (something like this)

No matter how much times I tried to sbf_flash back the 4.6.8 sbf file, no luck. I was around the edge of collasp and ready to go psycho. I have been double-wiping data and cache for thousands of times....

[What makes it working again?]
I was wondering, as long as Stock recovery is still working (Pressing R+M key), I was going to try out the last "meaningless thing".

I copied the update.zip (the file used to update from 3.87 to 4.6.8 with SD card), I installed this file again by recovery (install update.zip something like this)

In theory, this file should only deal with system part, not the booting part. However I was thinking, bootload is locked, there should be no problem with it.
Recovery works, seems the rom is intact.
M logo changes from white to Red after sbf_flash, means booting was partially done. Only problem left should be the OS. (think in PC way, Bios is intact, Windows is dead)

I was holding my breath, watching the update.zip going. When it comes to update BP complete, I was almost sure the thingie's gonna work again, since RSD showed "Flash BP fail" before, and likely being recovered by this update. Some lines after, there was an error from reading. I ignored it, double-wiped again and restart.

I left my phone on the desk for some seconds. Suddenly, the most unpleasant scream on earth "DROOOOID~" suddenly yells in the air. The most unpleasant scream suddenly becomes the most joyful yell on earth!

[Happy-ending, hurray]
The remaining would be the same as you did before.
Root, install apps, enjoy.

[Conclusion]
1. Linux-environment, sbf_flash the 4.6.8 sbf which you used for RSD/SDL in Windows. (for those commands , try googling. If You still have no idea, drop me a line, I will post that up)

2. Bootlap after Linux flash, , got ERR code in Bootloader after M logo. dont worry.

3. Hold R+M+Power, reboot into recovery.
Do a double wipe.

4. copy update.zip to SD card, install the update.zip.
once the process pass through Update BP complete, ignore any error code there after.

5. Double Wipe again, reboot

6. "DROOOOID~", Root, and have you facebook on!.

Some ppl said yes, some ppl said not. Im not sure for RSD, since its kinda crap sometimes, as it often fail to detect your phone.

Cant detect = cant flash your phone.

[Mine Suggestion]

1. Download "Knoppix", a Linux build boot on CD (No installation needed) and runs on ram

2. Open terminal, use SBF_FLASH to flash the stock verizon SBF back to the phone. (I dont have the command with me now in office. I upload them once back in home.

3. Connect USB. (No detection needed. 100% successful)

4. You will see the red M logo boot back. (But some chances for stuck there and ERR code afterwards)

5. Apply update.zip as abovesaid (If needed, I will upload that too tonite)

6. Double Wipe. and There you go.

*Should work anyway, even if you have flashed the sbf from any martian devices (joke) beforehand.
Since Bootloader is locked, Moto should be unbrickable. Your stock Verizon sbf will recover anything at long as you still see Bootloader (Code corrupt counts)

how to do please step one and two above:

1. Download "Knoppix", a Linux build boot on CD (No installation needed) and runs on ram

2. Open terminal, use SBF_FLASH to flash the stock verizon SBF back to the phone. (I dont have the command with me now in office. I upload them once back in home.

1. Google for "Knoppix", you should get an ISO image around 700mb. (No specific version needed. Any)
Burn this to a blank CD/DVD, let it handful on your desk first. You will use this CD to boot your PC into Linux environment when every tool is ready.
*Relax, this would only run on RAM and CD, nothing will be installed on your PC. Your Windows and everything gonna be fine.

2A. Download SBF_FLASH from this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775913
-extract the Zip, make it convenient, store it in your C:\SBF

When you later boot into linux on your PC with the abovesaid Knoppix CD,
you gonna execute a program built-in Linux, that is the Terminal. (something look like DOS)

2B. Have your 4.6.8 SBF file ready in the abovesaid C:\SBF folder of PC.(you can get it in an other thread in this Droip Pro forum)
- rename the SBF file to a short name for convenience, say 468.sbf from now on in this post.
-

2C. Execute the Terminal program in Linux.
-execute the following commands. One line means one single command. Dont miss out spacebars or "DOTS"
- command lines below, when ever you see <<< ENTER#xxxxxx, that means press enter and behind these are descriptions for your reference, DONT COPY

---------------Command starts below. dont copy this line-------------

su
cd sda1\SBF <<<ENTER #Or the location where you stored SBF folder in C. (sda* means Disk number in Linux, there is nothing known as C:\ D:\)
chmod +x sbf_flash <<< ENTER # dont miss out the spacebars, dont miss out underscroll
./sbf_flash 468.sbf <<<ENTER #dont miss out the . at the beginning.

---------------Command Stops here. dont copy this line--------------

2D. Connect your phone to usb and your phone(At Code Corrupt screen), let it run.

*Sorry for the bad English, I am not native.
Tonite I will try to upload screenshots for illustration if possible.
