When you bootloop after sbf, try wiping the data/cache. Go into stock recovery by holding the home button down while powering on until you get to the \!/ then hit the search button. That will bring you to stock recovery. Select factory/data wipe. When done scroll to reboot and let us know if that helps.

This was posted by Steven in the long OTA thread. Try it.

Can you get into recovery at all by turning the phone on while holding down home? If so, clear data and cache.

If not (which is what happened to me) you need to sbf back and try again. I had a bad flash or something. Definitely re-download the files before trying again.

as stated if your stuck at the boot logo (red m) you will have to sbf, usually wiping the data partition only works in an actual bootloop but is always worth a shot, here is a guide to assist you with sbf:

Yup... sbf... and also, once you upgrade to GB to get into stock recovery you hold down home while powering on... then once the triangle comes up, hold down both volume buttons... then use the volume buttons to move up and down and power to select.

thanks i really apreciate it

you can always get into stock recovery, though, which is a start

before you reflash as it was said earlier boot into the stock recovery.

pull your battery out, put it back in, hold the home button down, power up, you should see the boot logo (red Moto logo) and then the stock recovery screen. in the new stock recovery you have to press both volume buttons to have the menu pop up, use the volume buttons to scroll to data wipe/factory restore option, click the power button to select the wipe. it takes a few minutes for the wipe, after that reboot.

if that doesnt work then you will need to sbf again.

Glad I saw your posts about holding the volume keys instead of hitting search. That worked for Froyo but not GB. Steven must have been sleepy after staying up all night to get his phone working on the newest leak.

I can't get out of the boot loop. I tried holding down the home button while powering up. No Joy it wont go into stock recovery. Can't get RSD Lite to recognise the phone to SBF back to unrooted froyo.

I had this same problem just to find out that one if my files wasn't fully downloaded. I'd re-download the files and try again.
