1. Download the following files:

[URL="http://rescue.macleod-web.net/rsd_lite/USB_Drivers_32_bit_4.2.0.zip"]32 bit drivers[/URL] [B] or[/B]  [URL="http://rescue.macleod-web.net/rsd_lite/USB_Drivers_64_bit_4.2.0.zip"]64 bit drivers[/URL]
[URL="http://rescue.macleod-web.net/sbf/moto-droid2.01stock.sbf"][SIZE=2]2.01 stock sbf file[/SIZE][/URL]

• Install RSD Lite. Unzip the file and run the msi file
• Install the drivers.
• place downloaded .sbf file on desktop

2. Connect your phone to USB and turn it off then while your phone is booting hold up on the DPAD.

3. Run RSD Lite 4.6 as Administrator (For all you Vista and 7 folks out there. If you are using XP you may not need to run as Administrator)

4. Click the ... next to the filename box and browse to where you saved the .sbf file and double click the .sbf file.

5. Hit start and below it should give you completion progress and all of that.

6. Once your phone is done being flashed (It may take a while so don't unplug it) it will reboot and you will be back at stock 2.1 no root.

7. Once you are back to stock 2.0.1, OTA will do it's do!

done!

Are you guys serious? There is no solution for this but wipe the phone? This problem has been prevalent since 1.5 and all Google has done is closed the loop hole so that you can't actually resolve this?

This is ****ing horse****.

If you have ADB installed on your computer, i can walk you through how to fix this with no loss of any data or apps...

 

[lax01]

Without flashing the phone also? What's ADB?

 

[jlutz555]

yes without flashing as well, standby for linkage or message me on aim/yahoo to the left...

Android Debug Bridge | Root Your Droid

follow the directions here and get adb running on your phone and get back to me when you're ready to proceed...

 

[lax01]

Thanks...but my phone isn't in Debug mode...and I have not figured out a way to get to the options/settings...is this still going to work?

 

[jlutz555]

possibly, i'm looking into that now...

 

[lax01]

Thanks but whatever...I'll just do a factory reset...this is a major strike against Android and seriously pisses me off...I can't believe they haven't resolved this.

Do you have a car dock. Sometimes the car dock will bypass my lockout? Might work.

 

[lax01]

Nope...already did the hard reset...

 

[jlutz555]

ok are you rooted with a custom recovery?if so it can be done in recovery mode. i'm not sure about the stock recovery image.

anyone know if you can mount system and data in the stock recovery?

 

[lax01]

stock 2.1 rom...never dealt with rooting...

honestly, someone should be fired for this

 

[jlutz555]

Nope...already did the hard reset...

damn, i'm almost sure i could have helped you fix it...

 

[lax01]

I shouldn't have to install a developers tool to unlock my god damn phone (not pissed at you, extremely pissed at Google for this bull****)
