Installed Froyo.....HELP

So I installed froyo and put in the nandroid folder and went into SP recovery to load froyo and everything went ok but now the new android loader screen is stuck. It keeps cycling and doesn't actually load. Its been trying to load for 10 min and isn't doing jack. Anyone have any good ideas on what the heck could have happened?

Thanks

Two possibilities
1. Did you wipe prior to installing the Froyo rom?
2. The file is corrupted. Make sure the DL completed and the file is the size specified in the DL site.

Mike

yeah I wiped before. does anyone know of a good DL file?

Where did you go to DL the file? Are you trying to install the stock (leaked) Froyo or do you want to install one of the roms (BB, SS, SD)?

Mike

just the stock froyo.

Data and cache wipe? Mine did that too until I wiped both. As far as DL files, they can be found in the Droid Hacks section...if you want to run a custom ROM. You can even select the dev of the ROMs which saves ALOT of time!

ok, now it's telling me "error: nandroid exited with status 25" after i installed the virgin froyo. i have no idea whats going on here.

25 - The rom is in too many subfolders. ( I.e. nandroid/samplerom/samplerom, it needs to be nandroid/samplerom

Make sure you have the rom in the nandroid folder that you created earlier.

i just put in in the nandroid folder on the phone. was i supposed to put it in a custom nandroid file???

Make shure it only takes one folder to open boot image : )
Otherwise exited 25 status

lol, ok bro....you gotta use laymans terms ok. im starting to think i shouldnt have done this. haha

Layman's terms are the only way bro, you can do it keep us posted?

Just put the file as is from download, on the root of your SD card. Name it update, RM can update it or sp recovery can (just hit allow update before installing update in sp recovery)

Oh yeah, you know to back it up first I am sure you have! mwhartman and I will get you!

Hey dude, exactly what rom did you download? What recovery are you using? Is it SPRecovery or Clockworkmod? Did you download the one from Pete? FYI, the ones Pete posted are in update.zip format. which means you put them on the root of your sdcard and hit apply update.zip in recovery. You DO NOT put those files in the nandroid folder and try to restore.

Now there is 3 of us chis0311, you can do it, just be patient.

thats why you gotta love this place. plenty of ppl to help you out. i downloaded the virgin froyo from pete. yeah, im in sprecovery.

For me, I used sp recovery and renamed that file update. Then I wiped data and cache twice (after a full nandroid backup) then went to allow update.zip, than to install update.zip

PS it needs to be on the root of the SD card, not in a nandroid folder.
