I've been trying to get the webtop hack working on my bionic for hours but can't seem to get it to work.
I've been using this guide to try this:
webtop-mod-hack-for-the-droid-bionic-weptop-via-hdmi-no-docks
from droidmodderx
I've tried both methods, but the problem is when I plug my hdmi cable in to the phone, nothing comes up.
I've even tried using Nebtop, which does bring up a docking promt, but Webtop is not one of the options, nor is mirroring mode.
Does it matter that I am on .902?
I am flashing back to .893 as I type.
I am rooted, and using bionic bootstrapper.
Please, someone help?

Hey guys, i'm not rooted and updated using three file process to get to system version 5.7.893 only to realize that my webtop was there but not working or as they say broken. A known problem in the three fill update process. I kept reading you have to revet to stock via the method posted and then use the single update file package of 54mb to have webtop again.
I didn't want to do that because the process wipes the phone. So i downloaded the single file blur.....5.5.886.XT875 which is supposed to bring you to 5.7.893 after reverting to stock in order to have webtop. Put it on sd and booted in recovery and told it update from sd card.
It went smoothly. So now i have a software version i was really loving because my phone was running smoothly on 7.893 but now i also have webtop again. Version 1 it says.
And i confirmed i was on 5.7.893 before trying this. So i'm not sure it will work for everyone, but according to the instructions given, i didn't have to go through all of that.
If i'm going to run into problems in the future - someone alet me. If not i hope it works for other. Love my webtop.
If someone already posted this somewhere, sorry. Be easy on me
Didn't work for me. Got asert error. Are you sure you ever lost webtop?

yes i am very certain that i lost it. when i was sitting on ver. 5.5893 webtop was very unstable. then when i got up to 7.893 it was gone. i could not access it from the drop down menue when on the dock nothing. i am quite certain it was gone. i battery pull etc etc and nothing there was no option to run it from anywhere. i tried several times. It is curious though that i can install the one package file even with no revert and after already installing the three separate files and you can't. i ran it again last night and it installed just fine again so idk.
I have a bionic that i system updated to 5.9.902 a couple days after i got it. Then i made the mistake of coming here and messing up my phone because i have no idea what I'm doing
I installed safestrap and did the whole noob step by step guide. Installed eclipse and a couple other roms. For some reason i wiped my internal and external storage. I have no backups of anything.
I've tried releasedroot, petes, rds lite with the 902 xml. I got stuck all the time with what seemed to be a driver issue.
I just want to return this thing to stock and stop messing with it
As of now when I press power i go straight to ap fast boot flash failure screen. I press power to power off and hold vol up and down to boot into recovery but just pick the normal boot option. Phone then boots into what seems to be my stock 902. I dont know if im rooted anymore.
If i could rid my phone of this flash failure and safestrap, i would be stupid happy
Anyone out there willing to help a total noob? If any more info is needed I'd be happy to provide

What error did you receive using rsdlite?
When you go into your phone settings..can you verify your on 902?
I'm at work now but it was some sort of usb failure. It got stuck on 1/22 mbm something.
Yes as of right now im on 902.
Is there a tutorial on how to completely remove usb drivers? Even though rsdlite says I'm connected, I don't see my phone drivers in device manager. That's where I think I'm going wrong but not really sure.

I have a Bionic that's stuck on the red Motorola/dual-core logo. If I turn the phone on normally, it displays the logo and the soft keys light up after a few seconds, but nothing else happens. I've tried flashing both .893 and .902 to no avail, as both successfully flash but then dump me back to the boot screen. I'm also unable to get to recovery as the recovery option from the pre-boot menu also leaves me hanging at the Motorola logo.
Any ideas?
UPDATE: Have tried flashing using both RSD Lite and the fastboot command through the terminal on Mac OS X, no dice.
How long have you waited? First boot after FXZ can take several minutes....

I'll try it again, but I waited a little under 10 minutes last time.
Sounds possibly bricked. Be careful not to drain your battery so don't leave out on too long because you can't fxz with a low battery.
Were you doing something that might have caused this?

I would download the newly released 905 FXZ and flash it, unmodified. Don't try to save your data or your internal memory. Just run the full FXZ.

It's actually my friend's—it bricked itself during an OTA (not sure which) and he gave it to me to try and fix as he managed to get a replacement without them asking for an exchange. And about the battery, I have a handy universal charger so I'm not worried

Will do, thanks.
Alright, flashed the 905 FXZ (stock, no changes) and it's been stuck at the Motorola logo for about 15 minutes now. Slight progress, though, as now when I plug the phone in the computer recognizes a bunch of USB devices (USB Composite Device, Motorola LTE BP Modem, Motorola QC BP Modem, Motorola USB Modem, Motorola USB Networking Driver, and Motorola QC Diag Port).
Any suggestions?
Try a windows machine. Maybe it would end up different. Ive fxz'd my bionic 15 times or so. Never had boot after fxz take more than 5 min. Also make sure youre using a motorola cable. Mac, im clueless, really, but i imagine as long as you have the latest motorola drivers and the newest version of rsd lite, it would work no sweat. I just dont know if the fxz file would be different, but id imAgine not

In fact if you need a fxz that is 100% for sure,
http://db.tt/kNuGZ8Od . I have used this same one every time with zero glitches or hiccups. Its .902 with no mods so it wipes internal too.

I've been using Windows (dual booting), along with that same FXZ and nothing seems to be working. I also tried the newly released 905, same result. Think it's a hard brick?
I dont know. Do you have the newer (red m, not black m) version of rsd lite? Are ya using the Motorola drivers and the moto device helper? http://db.tt/yR5ZCAqa i have both installed on my phone tweaking windows xp sp3 machine.
Me personally, i dont want to believe in hard bricking, but maybe its possible.

I do have the newest version of RSD Lite. I've got the Moto drivers, but no device helper (which I'll try next).
Can you find out from your friend...what OTA he was flashing and what exactly happened? And if he had safestrap installed? With some more information, you may be able to recover. Honestly though...you have done pretty much everything to try and recover.
possiable fix

I have had my droid bionic for almost a year i bought it bricked on the Droid logo would not boot past that, its been a year and i havent been able to fix this phone i have repaired 9 phones for personal use in the mean time. long story short after a year of fxz flashing driver updates house of moto using i figured out that if i flash the phone with cdma_targa_9.8.2O-72_VZzW-22_cfc.xml then factory reset in recovery it will boot to droid logo, this is where it gets weird it will sit here all night but if i pull my sd card it will almost immediately go to the red eye then boot. hope this helps :]
Boot it WITHOUT the sd Card? You can't RSD the JellyBean firmware if it was previously on the ICS firmware unless ICS firmware is "clean/virgin" (i.e. unmodified).
You may need to go all the way back to Gingerbread or ICS. I'd try House of Bionic's ICS flashing procedure.
As the title states, I rooted my revolution, but I can no longer access it via lgpnst or anything that uses adb, so I'm stuck. I have been trying to find something to update to v8 or v9 using clockworkmod (4.0.0.2), but it appears that everything being suggested requires me to have access with adb. No matter what I try, attempts to access through adb result in "device not found", or "waiting for device".
I did try a factory reset, which got me stuck in a clockworkmod reboot loop, when I used exitrecovery to fix that. If there is any sort of update or fix to be applied from clockworkmod, that would be great. At this point, I just want to get away from this ridiculous forced download and reboot process that just makes this device harder to use.
Any suggestions?
Flash a TOT with LGPNST, either ZV8 or ZV9, and you will be golden.

This is the hurdle.
Oops. My bad. Missed that and focused on the mentions of ADB.
Edit: Have you tried different cables, computers, operating systems (XP for instance), or drivers? Also, make sure there are no other instances of adb on the computer. I have read that can cause problems too.
Edit x2:

You mean the OTA update? That can be disabled either by Titanium or a root explorer.

I have tried all of the drivers I could find, and all of the different cables sitting around my place with no success. Right now, I don't have access to xp at home, but now I'm thinking there might be something to do with the system I've been using at home (which also runs windows 7 x64). When plugging my phone into my work computer (which runs xp), I got a usb modem prompt. There may be hope if I use a virtual machine at home.
I haven't looked into the titanium backup or root explorer, so that will happen this evening. Thanks for the suggestion.
Score! Thanks for getting me to think about the system again. I removed all of the drivers, created another administrator user account, and then logged into it and connected the phone... poof! I was prompted! I installed the drivers, and then it appeared in lgnpst! A short couple of uploads, and I'm there.
Awesome. Glad you got it going!

Dunno if this forum is still alive but...
OTA updated to. 246 been trying to root w motofail but it's stuck on daemon successful or waiting for device...
I've installed the motohelper 5.2? But still nothing. Does anyone know how to uninstall old drivers? I had the OG Droid before and I've read that older drivers might be the cause but dunno how to go about fixing it. Any help would be appreciated. I also don't have another computer to try on and my usb is stock original from box.
Is there another method to rooting? Thanks peeps

You can use razors edge or I would suggest that you factory reset your phone. Then try the Motofail.

I've tried motofail n razors edge but to no avail. When you say reset, do you mean through rom or recovery? N does it wipe sd? I just want to make sure I back up. Thanks for the help
It's USB debugging enabled?

Thanks for the help guys, got my Bionic finally rooted. I did do a factory reset w internal sd erase option checked. What's odd was I couldn't use motofail for some reason but I was able to find a razor's edge copy from Droidforum and ran perfectly.
