Installed leaked 2.3 and unrooted!

[jlb13085]

First I would like to say hello to everyone as I am a new poster, not a new reader. Secondly, I admit in advance that I'm an idiot. So...

I installed the new leaked 2.3 gingerbread on my X with no problems and loved it. My wife liked it and wanted me to put it on her Droid 2. So I proceeded to root her phone and install the d2 zip with bootstrap like I did on my phone with no problems.

Now she insisted that I unroot the phone when I was done, so I did, thinking I was finished. Then I found out swype was inoperable due to whatever reasons. Swype is a must for her. Now replacing the production swype with the beta swype is easy... on a rooted device. I unrooted a brand new OS and now have no way to root it back to fix this issue UNLESS...

...there is a way to get into clockwork recovery without being rooted. I did have the presence of mind to do a back up while I was in there initially. That is the only thing I can think of. If anyone has any advice I would greatly appreciate it. Otherwise this phone is in limbo and I'm in the dog house

Have you tried doing a manually reboot to see if it boots into clockwork?

Btw there's no need to start a new thread in several different sections.

You mean turning it off and powering on like I'm going into recovery?

Yes just do a manual reboot. Worst case scenario,you will have to sbf and restore a backup.

Well that's the problem, I'm not rooted so it doesn't go into clockwork recovery, just stock recovery.

Then an sbf will bring it back to stock. Hopefully you have a backup to restore after sbfing
