Can't get the sbf to work

[BlueSami]

So i have tried using multiple sbf's and i still can't get past the M logo?

This phone is one that crashed getting the 2.2 update a while ago. I am trying to get it back online.
I have successfully gone through the sbf process but when rds lite says its rebooting the phone, it just stays at the M logo.
Then rds lite will tell me to manual power up the phone. but thats a no go also.

Have you seen this thread?

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-labs/73579-using-rsd-lite-flash-sbf-file-correctly.html

Make sure to catch the boot, otherwise the process might fail. Also, which SBF are you flashing and have you tried to boot into recovery?

 

[BlueSami]

won't boot into recovery.
I had not used that thread yet..
catch the boot? i don't understand that.

i have tried a couple differnet ones
VZW_A855_FRG01B_QSC6085BP_C_01.43.01P_SW_UPDATE_01.sbf
moto-droid2.01stock.sbf
VZW_A855_ESD56_QSC6085BP_C_01.3E.01P_SW_UPDATE_03.sbf

The D1 doesn't take the command to boot directly into the bootloader; it just boots normally. The phone has to be rebooted so RSD Lite can do an integrity check. It'll be outlined in that thread.

ok i see that i will try that now.

 

[BlueSami]

Well it said it passed but it still wont get past the M logo.

I'm going to have to say this phone is a paperweight, from the sounds of things. There might be something you can do with ADB, but I honestly have no idea what.

 

[BlueSami]

man thats too bad.. the guy who gave it to me had taking it to verizon and they just upsold him on a new phone. so he jsut gave it to me.....

 

[furbearingmammal]

Sounds like they suckered him, then. Sorry for the bad news.

 

[BlueSami]

lol they totally did. they sold him a D2 haha.

what do you think coulda happened to it. low battery when installing the 2.2? i thought people recovered from that?

 

[teddyearp]

Two (or three) things. One, make sure your battery is fully charged. Two, try this here as the .sbf files you are using are a tiny bit old:

Restoring your phone when all else fails-LAST RESORT AND VERY RARE!!!

Three, this is the guide section and therefore for true solutions ONLY and not a section for questions, but that is just me.

good luck
