I just downloaded the SBF from another thread and with the impending update I'd like to go back to stock. Can I flash the sbf with the bootstrapper recovery, or does it have to be through RSD?

It has to be through rsdlite, make sure you have the proper drivers installed on your computer as well. Its all automated, as soon as you tell rsdlite to start, it does everything by itself, just remember to go into recovery by pressing x on bootup and wipe data/cache and you'll be perfectly fine (I just sbf'ed as well in anticipation, running stock rooted with bloatware removed and no bootstrap)

Did you try using bootstrap recovery to flash the original ROM? Would that work?
Sent from my DROID2 GLOBAL using XDA App
it depends on where you got the sbf from, if its the rooted and deodexed rom from the get r done forums, then that is not the one you want to flash, the file should have an extension of .sbf in order for it to be flashed in rsdlite, if what you got was a .zip file, try unpacking it.
Got it done.

hello,
during the restore with clockworthmod recovery, the phone hangs up.
now is the system damage and no boot the phone. bootloader and menu for hard-reset(X+power works).
i need a sbf file for the european milestone 2 with motoa953 chipset for flashing with rsd lite.
gives a update.zip for the sdcard with clockworthmod revory to start from the menu "apply sdcard update.zip) with verifying
many thanks
try data wipe/factory reset and wipe cache in the clockwork or stock recovery..might fix the problem.

this only delete cache and data. during the restore with clockworthmod, the system is erasing and then copied the system from backup. and in copy mode the sdcard hangs and now is the systems files all erased an the phone doesn´t boot:-(

Look on the forums and see how to sbf, that should fix the problem. And if not, you "bricked" it..if you can get into the stock recovery by holding the x button down and it comes up and what not then its salvageable but if all you get is the motorola m then it might be toast. Give sbf'ing a try.
Edit: Sorry I didn't really read your original post, sorry, you know how to sbf but don't have the file..I couldn't tell you where to get that...go to androidforums.com or droidlife.com and maybe someone can help over there because obviously im the only one responding...

The problem is, the milestone 2 have another chipset (a953) like droid2. Rsd lite says: firmware is not compatible with this phone. On recovery mode with update.zip can i only flash original firmware (verifization).
Today i go in the vodafone shop, the phone is only 1 week old.
Can i create a working sbf file from my clockworthmod* .img? I have many complete backups on my sdcard.
Or how can i make a sbf file from the system of another milestone 2. This would i flash into my ms2 with rsdlite

@Rennert,
How did you get the Clockwork recovery installed on the Milestone 2 (A953) ?
I have the same phone myself but I've not found any information on how to proceed. I've rooted permanently with the z4root-app but that is about it.
I stumbled on this one (similar) to the one above when looking up bootstrapping the Milestone 2

Dunno if it helps (sorry as I'm a lurker I have to HXXP).

With Droid X/2 recovery Bootstrap you can install ClockworkMod v2.5.0.8.
Edit: Please read instructions before you try the application.
Thx,
Installed ClockworkMod recovery with Droid 2 Bootdtrap. Not sure if there is any joy out of it as there are no ROMs around yet... nandroid backups works well though.

For now only backup just in case.
I am doing some tests and hoping that if something goes wrong I can restore my phone with that backup.
Edit: Droid Overclock can be useful for example to change some Build Props(Dalvik VM, Max EVTs, etc)

Tell us if everything is ok.
I'm fairly new to all this jazz. I used bootstrapped to flash clockwork recovery. Is there a way that bootstrapper can flash the latest version of clockwork recovery? How do I go about doing this? When I try using rom manager its a no go...

Does anyone know what the backup would be named if I used the Fission ROM manager? I have a file named D2_Global_OEM. I'm assuming this is it.
To flash out of Fission, is it really just selecting this backup from clockwork recovery?
Sent from my DROID2 GLOBAL using XDA App
Where are you seeing that title for the files? When I go into clockwork recovery on my phone and get to the restore section I see 2 options, one backup I made when rooting and another when I put fission on. Both are identified entirely by the date and time at which I made them. E.g. the fission one is 2011-04-08.00.59.32 Saying that at 12:59 am on april 4th I backed up. Can you get into clockwork recovery mod and identify the backup by the date/time it was made at? I think that would be easiest.

This is the stock rom rooted and deodexed.
I have a problem now with this rom, when I try to flash from fission to this one using frm, it successfully flashes but hangs on the accessing server screen for verizon backup.
I don't want to sbf the stock rom but it looks like I may be forced to.

Rooted & running Fission ROM.
*** FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. ***
When you flash the Droid 2 Global full sbf you may get a boot loop. Boot into stock recovery and press the magnifying glass button. Then,
WIPE ALL DATA AND CACHE,
FACTORY RESET...
This should resolve the bootloop issue after SUCCESSFULL flash of full stock sbf with rsdlight 4.9

Hey. So I rooted my T-Mobile SGS 4G (stock 2.2 firmware) with SuperOneClick. That was super easy, I tested it out with a few utilities and I definitely have root.
So I went into rom manager and pushed the button to flash clockwork mod. It asked me for superuser status, said it was successful, but then it boots into the stock samsung recovery. I've tried this several times and I always have the same result. I'm sorry if there's an answer on this already but I'll be damned if I could figure out how to search for it without coming up with a bunch of unrelated problems.
Thanks!
Try going into clockwork and choosing boot to recovery then after that if it goes into stock recovery choose reinstall packages sometimes you have to choose reinstall twice. That's how I got mine into cwm first time

Oh no that's the problem, I can't get clockwork to boot. No matter how many times I install it using the installer inside rom manager, the stock recovery boots up.
ROM MANAGER DOES NOT WORK. USE KRYLONS CWM FINAL IN THE DEV SECTION.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
Yea I no, but wen u boot into it you get the stock 3e recovery and there is an option to reinstall packages
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium
You need to download krylons modified recovery.bin file and use a file explorer app to push the file to system/bin. You need to also have the file update.zip on the root of your SD card. Then you boot into stock recovery and choose reinstall packages. This will boot you into cwm.

Yesterday I rooted my 8013 note with UEALGB software and tried to make a nandroid in high on android cwm. It would reboot recovery everytime i started the backup process. So i flashed TWRP through goo manager app then tried to make a nandroid and the same thing would happen. Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.
Edit: I just tried to flash the stock recovery and it seems like I am stuck with cwm or twrp. I flashed stock recovery through Odin and it said it was successful but when I reboot into recovery I still have custom recovery.
Edit: Seems to only happen when I try to backup the system partition.

Zeodmaxs root without recovery first then I went back and flashed high on android cwm through Odin later in the night because I wanted to start playing around with stuff.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
The root injected image causes problems. I think you're gonna have to ODIN the original image back on it to fix it. Search around, it's here somewhere.
Go for method #2 next time. Roots without an issue.
Did you flash the the Superuser.zip file after flashing Zedomaxs cwm.tar fie in odin? This is needed to get true root priveleges.
Not sure why you can't reflash a stock rom though, that's how I've always gotten rid of root access to revert back to stock...

I didn't flash the superuser.zip. I have root while in android though. I will try to flash it and see if that helps.
