Hey guys, I've got a Droid 2 here that is displaying an error in the bootloader saying:

Bootloader D2.37 Err: A5,69,35,00,27

Using RSDLite 5.6, I have flashed the unit with 1FF-p2a_droid2_cdma_droid2-user-2.3.4-4.5.1_57_DR4-51-120117-release-keys-signed-Verizon-US.sbf
numerous times and it is still giving the same error... Please help!

I understand that this cannot be downgraded due to the nature of the latest OTA Firmware, but I can't even get it restored to stock... Thanks

are you getting any errors from rsd lite?
could be driver issue, usb cable, corrupt sbf file, general pc glitch.....
read The DROID Wiki
try different usb cable
redownload sbf
use different pc,
or your best option try a Linux os and
...Linux as your OS of choice you can flash with your current system, grab sbf_flash and the SBF file then simply cd to where you put the files, then:
chmod +x sbf_flash
./sbf_flash file name.sbf

thanks!

I am trying to flash it in my netbook right now via linux and sbf_flash
the cable is fine, (since I flashed my RAZR with it) and the file is fine because I checked the MD5.

I'll post back with results. Thanks!

sbf_flash should work, Linux to flash Linux
usb cable failure can be hard to diagnose, can work with one device and not another
but i would think more likely fail with razr than D2, because of the size of sbf.
