one thing that confuses me is that if you look at the sbf restore stuff, it does appear to flash a boot.img. wouldn't that be the kernel? The first method that came out def has a boot.img in there. The newer one click version with forever root only has system.img. I'm wondering of the original method actually will restore the kernel

disregard - i tried using that method to restore the boot.img and it fails

* Flashing boot.img
sending 'boot' (8192 KB)... OKAY
writing 'boot'... INFOPreflash validation failure

So i guess it already sees that the boot image signatures dont match and fails. Seems we're stuck unless someone comes up with a way to flash it

its not mine. i found it on google. its completly stock, mine is not. But i found where u can download the stock kernel

HERE... click kernel_omap >>> DroidBionic - Browse /droidbionic/5.5.1_84_DBN-55 at SourceForge.net <<<

as stated above i have the stock kernel from one of the original fastboot one click restores, but as you can see it doesn't flash anymore. Not sure how what needs to happen but it doesn't work in flashing cause of the locked bootloader. sucks... i also tried using the radio.zip and that failed as well, not sure on what tho.

I figure theres always the fail safe method of "accidently" smashing your phone, insurance claim, and blammo stock phone. Its a hundred dollar deductible but thats the price to pay for being impatient.

yep i guess nothing we can do but wait.

if anyone wants to play around with figuring out if its even possible to load back the original kernel, here is a link to it:

boot.img
