Unbrick a Droid 2?

Hey guys! I have a Motorola Droid 2 that I believe I've bricked while trying to SBF update. It was running the stock 2.2 ROM, but rooted, and I attempted to upgrade to Android 2.3 (Cyanogen) yesterday. I followed the instructions here, starting the SBF attempt. That resulted on a phone that wouldn't boot--it would say

Bootloader
Code Corrupted
Battery OK
OK to Program
Transfer mod:
USB

I tried to SBF again, with no success. I've tried a variety of different SBF files, but now I'm getting a slightly different error:
Bootloader
D2.37
Err:A5,70,70,00,1F

MEM_MAP Blank
Service Req'd
Battery OK
OK to Program
Transfer Mode:
USB

Any idea for how I can SBF this back into a useful state? Or have I totally killed it :(

Thanks!
 
the corrupt error, could be from a bad download, loose usb cable, or other problem
mem blank error is from flashing incompatible sbf, if you tried 2.3.4 sbf, you can only use 2.3.4 now
