Aahhhhhhhh help please

[gamble_it]

so what's up guys. basically, i got my droid2 last week, and finally got it rooted. well, i finally got gummyjar on my sdcard, and i unzipped and installed it via bootstrap. well, when i hit reboot, it sent me into a bootloop, with the gummyjar logo.

i backed it up before i did this, but i can't get to that menu. is there anyway i can get to the menu to restore? i need your help asap, this is my only phone.

thank you very much for help!

Pull the battery, wait 30 seconds, reboot into recovery, do a full wipe, boot normally. If it still loops you installed the wrong version for your system version.

[gamble_it]

yea, it still starts looping. how can i fix this?

[furbearingmammal]

Do you know what system version you have? It should look something like 2.3.20.

[gamble_it]

no, how would i find that now?

[furbearingmammal]

You don't. You flashed the wrong version for your system version onto your phone. It happens if you don't pay attention. No worries, though. You need to flash the latest SBF onto your phone via RSD Lite, do another full wipe, and you should boot into the stock OS. You'll need to reroot (z4root should set you right up, or follow the link in my sig) and try again.

[gamble_it]

alright. how can i get there though? all i have when i boot holding x, then press the search button is
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip (tried this, said it failed)
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition

thanks for your help so far, very much appreciated

[furbearingmammal]

That's stock recovery. It can't use unsigned update.zips.

Okay, that moves us to booting into the bootloader. That's a battery pull + up arrow.

[gamble_it]

alright, so it brought up that menu. now what?



edit:
i don't have any drivers installed for my phone, if that makes a difference

[furbearingmammal]

Make sure it says OK to program and tell me what version you have.

You'll need access to a PC with administrator rights, the latest drivers from Moto, and a program called RSD Lite at this point.
