Spaz, Does the SBF that you have in your signature work for D2 as well?

Yes Chef, the rooted version. I was just reading that. I will try it and report back.

Hey guys...I need some help. After flashing GB, I made it all the way to the home screen but an "ADW force close" message keeps popping up. I hit ok and it pops up immediately. It's like a loop but instead of boot it's ADW force closing. Any ideas? I need my phone for the morning. Kinda screwed.

You can try booting in to stock recovery and doing factory reset.

tappin and a talkin

Yea, I've been trying that but when I get to the triangle screen, search button does nothing! It won't open the options to let me scroll to factory reset. What do you think?

iirc the search button doesn't work on gb. you have to press both volume buttons simultaneously.

I read that GB puts new drivers on your system which is probably why most are having trouble going back. So, make sure you get the stock drivers for your phone. I have the link, but its at my office.

Well, restore went through the motions but wouldn't boot past the boot screen so I am re-flashing Liberty to see if that works,......




Weird, It did the same thing. just hangs at the boot screen,....

Ok, cool. I got to the screen but the camera button doesn't seem to be the enter button now. Do you know what I press now to carry out the reset?

I just read in the droid x forums that you cannot use maderstok to get back to 2.3. 340 from rooted Gingerbread. You can use the TBH full sys 2.3. 340 update zip with droid 2bootstrapper, but you will need to SBF if you want to get back to Gingerbread without sticking in a bootloop. This was all tried out earlier by one of the mods there.

From unrooted Gingerbread you must SBF.

my guesses would be either power button or home button

I was thinking maybe home button too but that didn't do it. I was too scared to hit anything. Guess I need to stop being a wimp. Power button did it so let's see what happens. Thanks alot for your help, Spaz!! Hopefully this will do it. I'll let you guys know in case this happens to someone else.
