Should solve your problem..you might run into more if your following an old guide..you might want to consider using apktool 1.5.2

I will try this when I get home. I tried 1.5.2 but then my global actions came up with hundreds of errors. I believe I tried to delete the errors too, but with everything goes ng on it hard to recall 100%. Ill let you know later. Thank you for the adviceI hope it works!

Yes. If you have adb on your desktop that is the best way to do it for a hot boot.. SDK also has it in the tools section if you have that..
Anyway if you adb go to that directory on your desktop and open a cmd prompt there.. make sure you have USB debugging enabled..and grant the computer access to it if it asks..
Type in cmd prompt:
adb start-server(press enter)
adb devices (press enter)
You should see like a serial number, that is your devices. You should be good to run a log now.
So get ready to press the button that makes you hot boot..then type in cmd prompt:
adb logcat -d > hotboot.txt
Don't hit enter until you hit the button that hot boots your phone.. then once it hot boots hit enter
Also there are plenty of guides on the forums..If you have a problem. Or just post back here and I'll help..
P.S The log will be in the same folder adb is

hi guys, i'm really sorry if this is really simple, but i just cant get my head around it and i've been googling for ages and i just keep getting more and more confused.
i'm basically trying to get fastboot enabled on my ubuntu linux install (11.04). would someone please explain to me in simple terms how to get it installed and running on linux, please? from the start would be great, as i find it harder to carry on half way through something. i appreciate the help. you guys are awesome
As soon as I get on my computer at home, i'll outline the steps and attach fastboot
(gimme an hour)
Update: it's taking me longer to get home than expected... Gimme till about 1pm cst (central standard time)

Fastboot on Linux
I too had issues when I switched from Linux to windows (recently) and here's how I got it (just for documentation)
1) I downloaded android-sdk for linux, did the installs, but lo and behold, there was no fastboot...
2) Searched google for about 45 minutes
3) Finally figured out that HTC had it in their development website
4) Downloaded & chmod'd it so it'd work
5) Figured out that the r800x really can't be unlocked via all my attempts (so far...)
Here's a step by step as to how to get it without my hassle.
1) Attached is fastboot, download it, extract it (you can do this later in terminal if you feel like it, or you can do it now in the file explorer)
2) Open up terminal (if you don't have a shortcut for it, make one, it's the most useful thing in linux. ever.)
3) Type in su, enter your password (if you have it setup) and become root. (Or, you could call sudo whenever it is necessary, it's your preference)
4) goto the folder you downloaded fastboot to in terminal (the default chrome download place is /home/[insert your username here]/Downloads)
5) type in chmod [your preference for setting permissions here] fastboot
6) type in (sudo) cp fastboot /bin/
7) now you can call fastboot from anywhere in the terminal!!
This can also be done with adb
Any questions??

^_^ thank you so much!! you have made my life so much easier!! just one question. if all i'm doing is flashing the occasional kernel with fastboot, or pushing/pulling etc with adb, do i still need all the adroid sdk stuff? or can i just delete all the stuff now?

Honestly, I don't know.
That being said, try copying all the extra stuff from where it is currently to another location, and try running adb and fastboot, if it works, delete the extra stuff, if it doesn't, don't mess with it
i am trying to do this with no luck. any suggestions

update: check http://www.droidforums.net/forum/motorola-droid-x2/149566-droid-x2-boot-menu-recovery.html and see if that helps
For linux I found I had to add the "-i 0x0fce" before my commands or else Id be left with the waiting for device, try this:
fastboot -i 0x0fce getvar version
Also you may have to make the file:
/etc/udev/rules.d/51-android.rules
With this inside (note that 0fce is the idVendor for SE):
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", SYSFS{idVendor}=="0fce", MODE="0666"
That being said I think this accomplishes the same thing as just putting the -i 0x0fce before your command
I navigated to /etc/udev/rules.d. but I cannot create file.

i just used fastboot-windows... to unlock the bootloader. But when i enter into the command prompt 'fastboot flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primekk15.img' it says 'fastboot' is not recognized as an internal or external command.. i downloaded all the 4.0.2 files into the root of my hard drive what am i doing wrong? im stuck at the command prompt now lol
You don't have your paths set up. Change your environmental variables to include the folder that contains fastboot. It could also be that need to type "fastboot-windows" instead of "fastboot" depending on where you got it from.
Try "fastboot-windows flash bootloader bootloader-maguro-primekk15.img"
The command for Windows is "fastboot-windows ................"

//edit: too latee
It's only that if using the edited fastboot files. I have my system variables set up so I can run fastboot/adb from any location. A lot easier

Fastboot isn't dependent on Android SDK, Choose a place for fastboot to live (C:\Program Files\Android - perhaps?) then right click on MyComputer, Properties, Advanced and there should be an environment variables settings button somewhere, click edit and append the location to the end of the line, e.g. C:\Windows\System32;C:\Program Files\Android
This will allow you to call fastboot from whatever directory you're currently working from within command prompt.

If you open the start menu on your computer and right click computer, click properties you should go to some menu and in the top left it will say device manager I think, then you will go to another menu search for other devices or your phones name which should be something like don't Ericson 4.0.A.2.... etc. Something beginning with 4 and has dots a zero and A.

download the android sdk or a adb package.
extract/install the package/sdk
download adb via the sdkmanager if using the sdk
then load adb.exe via cmd e.g shift + right click - open command window here.
type 'adb shell'
(make sure usb debuggin is on on the phone and usb plugged in.)
then type 'pm setInstallLocation 2'
then type 'reboot'
then type 'exit'
all without quotes.
Still sounds so complex! Lol, will try though. Thanks

here is a method that worked for me.
1. Turn off your phone (if stuck, just remove the battery).
2. At your command prompt, do "adb logcat > logresult.txt".
3. Plug your phone to your usb and power it.
4. After at least 1-2 minutes or until the phone has fully booted up, terminate your logcat session (ctrl+c)

Hey guys,when I flashed cm9 primou the second time there isn't bootloader anymore also its very slow this time but the first time I installed it it was really really fast but now the important why isn't there bootloader anymore??its booting to recovery quickly without bootloader
Sent from my One V using xda premium
Let your rom boot. Connect the phone to your computer. In your computer go into command line. Then in command line navigate to the folder where the adb.exe is stored. If you have adb.exe in C:\android then you will type "cd C:\android". Then type "adb reboot bootloader". Type without quotation marks. This is the most reliable way how to boot into bootloader. You should have known this by now if you seriously want to be a developer.
You can also create a .bat file to execute the script. To do this create a text file and type there first line: "adb kill-server second" line: "adb reboot bootloader". Without quotiation marks of course. Then save the text file. Then make sure you can see the known extensions in windows and change the extension of the file to .bat. Put the file in the folder with adb and you only need to double click it to reboot into bootloader. You can create a shortcut to the file that you can put into your desktop.
Thank you but it worked this time

That will kill the first server IF you have one opened, in order to let the new one to work (the one to reboot bootloader). It is a safe state to say the least because if you have one adb shell opened and you want to run the .bat that will open another shell, it won't work. And that's why you need the adb kill-server second .
