About LinkBacksI have a Droid 2 Global, currently running system version 2.4.330.A956 and Android Version 2.2
I had previously rooted it with Z4root so I could uninstall bloat software with titanium backup and to use wifi tether. I have since unrooted with Z4root.
never installed bootstrap or whatever that is people keep talking about
My issues as of right now are:
1. the update keeps failing
and..
2. when i tried to update again after it failed it goes through the download process again even though it has already downloaded it the first time.
What do I need to do to get this update installed? Thanks

10-21-2011 09:23 AMI think restoring the bloat may be the answer, I am too far removed from 330 now to recall all the specifics and others may chime in with better detail.

10-21-2011 01:43 PMWell I was thinking that might be the problem. I did a factory reset and everything is back, re-downloaded the update and went to install but...

10-21-2011 04:14 PMIf you ever uninstalled a system app factory reset will not bring it back. Easiest way to fix this problem is simply to reflash 2.4.330 SBF takes 10 minutes and does not erase your data. Once done, proceed with the OTA update.

10-21-2011 08:12 PMSBF process does not format data partition. Your settings will remain after the SBF. What SBF will do is to bring /system partition back to stock. Which is the requirement for the update to succeed. Originally Posted by romeo
Check the sticky threads for how to perform it, or check in development thread ezSBF for Droid 2 Global. That's a CD you boot from which is specifically designed to SBF your phone without having to worry about drivers or RSDlite or anything. Check it out.

10-21-2011 09:05 PMDid you complete the flash process? Wiping data is not a requirement. Simply reboot the phone and check for updates so you receive the 608 update again.

10-22-2011 09:13 AMMany thanks to leobg !!! No lost data! Originally Posted by romeo

My D2G had z4Root and Superuser installed along with ClockworkMod so the OTA update kept failing. At first I tried uninstalling these apps, but still the OTA would fail.
After doing a complete restore of my device using CWM, here is what I did:
1.) RSDLite flashed to DROID2WEg_X6_2.4.9_FULL (for the correct way to do it, see: Using RSD Lite to flash an SBF file -- correctly )
2.) Rebooted and got a "Blue Triangle" for signal strength so I need to reactivated my phone by calling Verizon at *228 then press 1.
3.) I manually started the Verizon OTA update, download and install:
Success "Your phone was upgraded to 2.4.330.en.US version"
4.) On reboot, an OTA update started again and did a download and install:
Success "Your phone has been upgraded to 4.5.608.en.US version"
Again, many thanks to leobg and others on this forum for the help.
