Yesterday, I decided to switch roms from golden elegance lithium to UD 7. After this point all is good. Reason I switched was because the first rom grew to be very laggy, not sure if this is related to my problem, but I thought I would mention it. After UD 7 installed successfully I went to install the red rum 2 theme. BTW I used clockwork mod for all of these steps. After install was complete, I attempted to reboot. The phone got past the M logo, but barely would start to draw in "droid" during the animation, literally only a few pixels would show, than repeat. At first I was able to go into recovery and wipe cache and restore factory settings. I did this several times, having to pull my battery to turn off phone every time. The reboot would not progress any further than before. At this point I can't return to recovery (X + Power), but I can get to the bootloader. All it says is "Files Corrupted", "Cannot Program". I attempted to use RSD Lite to flash the 2.01 .sbf file, but RSD wouldn't recognize my device, even with the bootloader screen showing. I have already gone to Verizon and have a refurbed droid on the way. Beyond that is there anything I can do to restore my current droid? Thanks for any help you can provide.
I believe I installed the 64-bit drivers when I first rooted the phone. Should I try reinstalling them?
+1 There are a LOT of ideas you could follow over in MotoCache1's thread. http://www.droidforums.net/forum/rescue-squad-guides/74028-root-droid-1-regardless-os-version.html They might get you to where you can use your phone again. A lot of people running Vista and Win7 have has issues getting RSD Lite to work. Good luck!
UD 7 only officially supports SP Recovery. I got stuck in a boot loop when trying to flash it from Rom Manager. I was able to get back into recovery mode and re-flash.
ya i heard when u use UD u should flash it and things for it directly threw recovery not threw rom manager
must be a nandroid file then, clockwork never seemed to like any one elses nandroid backups besides my own
The Ultimate Droid dev team have flat out said ROM Manager and their ROM are not and never will be compatible.
i downloaded and installed ultimate droid and rom manager is my recovery,but yea you need motos drivers and the latest version of rsd lite,and get the verizon sbf file,flash it,and just start all over.
