Hey all,
I just downloaded and installed the Gingerbread update and now my phone just keeps rebooting. It'll show the home screen and within about 5-10 seconds it will reboot. It does this constantly.
Any ideas what I can do to correct this?
Do a battery pull reset. If it still gives you problems pull your SD Card and try to boot with it left out.
If neither of those helps you likely have an app causing issues with the O/S, in which case you'd need to do a Hard Reset.
The same thing is happening to me. I'm desperatley seeking a solution to this!
Hard reset did it.
how did you do the hard reset? Mine isn't on long enough to do it.

Hard reset while phone off
1. Turn the phone off if it is on.
2. Hold the Power and Homebuttons down for about 5 seconds.
3. A screen with an exclamation will appear. Tap the Search key.
4. Scroll down to factory reset using the Volume Down button.
5. Confirm the selection.
6. Select Yes — delete all user data then tap OK.
The Droid X will then complete the hard reset.
Hard reset after device boots to Android OS:
1. Open the Settings app.
2. Select Privacy.
3. Select Factory data reset.
4. Tap the Reset phone button.
5. Tap the Erase everything button to confirm the hard reset.
