Droid 2 GB Install Mishap Help

[veggiop]

Alright....so I messed up trying to install the GB ROM. Here's my problem:

The only thing I have access to at the moment is stock recovery. I am perfectly content with going back to stock and re-rooting, etc., if that's the only option. My most urgent concern is getting operational at this point. Do any signed ROMs exist that I can flash from stock recovery, even a stock D2 ROM? I have searched for two hours and can find nothing.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Have you tried wiping data in recovery? What exactly happened with the flash?

Same question as Spaz.

I am thinking you might have to SBF and re-do it all.

But I am curious if you tried the wipe that spaz asked about.

I'm in a similar jam. I installed deodexodd GB today, got a number of force closes, and decided to try out Liberty 2. I got the Liberty boot logo but nothing more. I tried to restore my GB backup but after it loaded, process after process FCed on me, so I was going to revert back to Squidly to try the process all over again, but I'm stuck at the Moto logo; can't get into clockwork, etc.

I was able to get into Android system recovery (hold x + power, press volume up plus down) but wiping cache and data/factory reset got me nowhere. I'm still stuck at the moto logo. I can't install any .zips from this menu because they don't pass the verification. What the @#%@#$!&!*%

You have to sbf to get back from GB.... It was mentioned in the released thread in bold letters if i remember correctly.

Cheers for the reassurance! I'm working on sorting this out at the moment. These forums are a lifesaver!

OP, if you think you're in the same jam as me, see, under UPDATE, in the first post: TBH & MyDroidWorld Present: Droid 2 (2.3.20) Triple Threat

Holding Power + up (dpad) get into stock bootloader, plug via usb into computer, RSD lite should pick it up right away, install the (unzipped) 444mb sbf available at that link. If this works I'll be so relieved, and ready for bed



I guess the next logical question is, do you think I can safely restore my backups, whether they be my GB backups from yesterday or Liberty/Squidly/etc backups from before?
