LOL.Exactly..thanks for your kindness..I have an idea why backup fails..working on that idea..I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed..It's all probably me.. :)Sent by my Motorola Droid XYBoard MZ617-16 10.1_ICS 4.04
Its not mounting data sometimes on restores and that does something with encryption weird stuff lol I couldn't even manually mount data. The workaround I found was delete the slot recreate it then the backup would restore.

So to update my earlier post, I have a bad rom installed in Slot 2, which is the active slot. My Maxx is unable to boot into the SS recovery; instead, it just bootloops at the Moto logo. I was able to get up and running by doing a semi-RSD (by that, I mean that I used the House of Moto tool to restore stock firmware but keep data). After doing so, I re-rooted, reinstalled Superuser and then tried a fresh install of SS. However, when I try to get into recovery, I get the bootloop again.

I think what has happened is that since I restored data, SS is still trying to boot to the bad slot. So my question is this: since I can't get into SS recovery to change the active slot, is there anyway that I force a change manually? Is there a file stored somewhere which tells SS which slot is active? Is there some file I can delete to accomplish this? Is there anyway to manually delete one or more of the slots?

I had this same issue this weekend. The only fix I came up with was a full rsd.
