    Thancks a lot for the replay...

    Then i can unistall this version of bootstrap ?? Somebody says not, ohhhhh thancks again.

    But how I uninstall the bootstrap completely ? I don't know.. Just in the other page somebody write only installing other Rom for erase the bootstrap...

    And my problem is sbf/Rom files, in Brasil Motorola don't put any rom for download, and i don't have any rom for the XT860...then how i can uninstall my Bootstrap and after install the last version ?

    XT 860 and 862 are compatibles ? I can flash a XT860 with a XT862 ROM ?

    You cannot use an SBF from another phone. It may work with limited function at best or brick your phone at worst.

    Ok Guidot.

    I apreciate the suport and I knew it, but i try to ask...

    In reality i'm confused. Always viseted EUA's forum to download and read news about STBs and phones, but now my phone exist only in Brasil and China....and i don't instal a rom in mandarim...$&#E%¨*%&%%*&

    Now i know that i never can install a custom rom of droid forum,... i'm very disapointed.

    Somebody have a good idea ?

    Last thinck, How and why in Koush's Bootstrap we have to do this: Anytime after flashing a ROM you must go back in and use the "Bootstrap Recovery" button to update the hijack back to this version.

    In this bootstrap we can flash all roms (not CM7) and backups ? Or only our backups ?

    And the Droid 3 Safestrap (Bootstrap / Recovery) is only for CyanogenMod 7 Builds or for all Roms and the CM7 ?


    Thancks a lot for all !!!

    Ndoren, thanks for the guide. That actually cleared up a lot things for me as I to had been reading about all these different boostrappers and safestap as well. My question is this for you is this. I have what my phone shows as "Droid 3 Bootstrap" but I'm not sure which Bootstrap version I have installed. Sorry, but I cant remember where I installed it from.

    If this helps, when I boot into CWM using the Droid 3 Bootstap it says "clockworkMod Recovery v5.0.2.6." And when I power up my phone and hold the "M" key down, I boot into something called the Boot Mode Selection Menu. I'm assumiing this is the fastboot menu?!?

    Click on the icon and you should have the screen with the skull. If it says [TWEAKED] at the bottom, it's Koush's tweaked bootstrap. Otherwise, it's the standard Koush bootstrap found in the market. Hope this helps. Neall

    And by the way, Safestrap is just about compatible with all the D3 roms, now. Most of the developers are making there roms work with both. I personally prefer Safestrap because of the its almost bullet proof way of flashing roms. As long as you follow the steps with it, your phone becomes almost un-brickable. Just saying.. :-)

    Hi!

    Since my last post here i made some backups, the first was with the first version an don't works very well.
    After this i have support here and made a factory reset and install the last safestrap and all was good.
    Other day i was in other forum looking for the android 2.3.6 for my XT860 and read about safestrap:

    1- safestrap only backup system and data;

    2- the only way to install the Bell's 2.3.6 firmware is for those who has the 2.3.4, because there are not any SBF for the canadian droid 3 (XT860 in canada and milestone 3 in Brasil are the same thinck);

    3- i always believe that bootstrap generate a shadow copy of the device, like a shadow copy in a winows PC, who prevents a system failure.

    If i was wrong, there is a way to clone all the xt860 to prevent a system failure ? And if i upgrade the android 2.3.4 to the 2.3.5 and i have a full backup of the 2.3.4 version, i can comeback to him or the backup works only for a 2.3.5 ?

    Sorry for the confusion....

    where do you get koush's tweaked bootstrap

    Based on the excellent summary here, I decided the best thing to install would be Hashcode's tweak of Koush's bootstrap. However, I don't see it on Hashcode's website; all I see is Safestrap. So can anyone tell me where to get the tweaked bootstrap? Thanks.
