Droid X stuck on M screen after upgrade to froyo.

hi. i am wondering if you had any problems with your X after upgrading to the new os. mine was acting all slow and sluggish... then rebooted.. it came back in safe mode and told me that i needed to upgrade to new OS.. so I did. then it rebooted and got stuck on the Motorola symbol screen. haven't been able to get it out of this mode.

any similar phenomenon?

HHEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!

A number of users have experianced this issue, I resolved by:

Power Device Off First.....

1. Hold Home Button and press power

2. Screen will show a Android with a triangle with astrick

3. Let Go of Home Button and Power

4. Press Search Button (Far Left Button)

5. A blue menu will show at top of page, scroll to Format Device

6. Select Yes to verify

7. Allow format to complete (Information at bottom of page will go through a few steps)

8. Once Format is complete Blue Menu will show at top again, select Reboot

Note: Use volume up and down to select opinion and use camera button as Enter,,,

I had this happen to my Droid X. I went back to Verizon and they couldn't help me. I reformated the phone several times and then went back to the Verizon store and was told that they way the update installed it "bricked" my phone. They sent me a new one, adn the first thing I did was to install the upgrade. It installed with out a problem. I think the reason I had so much trouble is that I had Trask Killer and an Antivirus running when I first tried to update the phone. I had no idea that that would screw things up...but it did. You may need a new phone.

This is one of the reasons I always suggest hard resetting before installing a major OS update. To avoid software conflicts. 2.1 and 2.2 codes are not the same and this is why some apps that worked on 2.1 don't even install on 2.2, I am so amazed that the update does not automatically hard reset system to avoid this hiccup.

Also I use ATK without issues and it isn't a bad app when configured right.
