Hello, I have a Droid 2 Global, with OTA .629, but already rooted and everything, but i have constant reboots since i had the phone (with .330, .607, .608 and .629) maybe its a defective phone, i dont know really, but the problem i have actually it is:
I installed the newest clockwork recovery using Rom Manager, but the recovery it doesnt do anything, it says it wipe data/cache, and very quickly, but it doesnt, it gives me error formating /system, etc...
It says that installed sucessfully Cyanogenmod 7.2 (latest nightly) but, it freezes at M logo... what should i do?
stop using rom manager
use a different cwm version
Sent from my DROID X2 using xda premium
suggestions?
try droid 2 bootstrap
or you already have rom manager, you can get different cwm versions, with that
try last version that worked for you
This is hardly discussed or documented anywhere, but if you're using CWM, you have to flash Droid X 2nd Init and NOT Droid 2 Global as your recovery.

that's because Rom Manager isn't recommended
I used Droid 2 bootstrap, with 2.4.33 and 4.5.608 and it worked fine

your cwm was likely corrupt, selecting Droid x just installed a complete cwm
edit: if you are using rom manager you have to use Droid X 2nd Init, or just use Droid 2 bootstrap

You aren't quite right.
The correct way is installing Droid 2 Bootstrap Recovery and using that to hijack. This will give you CWM 2.0.0.x. Once done, install the Droid X (2nd init) CWM via ROM Manager, and you'll end up with a fully functional CWM 5.0.0.x.
(Custom ROMs like CM7, CM9, and MIUI come with 5.0.0.x preinstalled, and restoring a backup made with 5.0.0.x is impossible if running 2.0.0.x.)
ok, i dont really get it...
using Droid X 2nd-init, it wipes and everything, and flashes CM9-D2G-04162012 and update-cm-7-20120420-NIGHTLY-droid2we-signed, coming from stock .629 firmware, and it freezes at M logo after rebooting, then is necessary sbf'ing again .608, and unbrick it againg, and is a loooong process....
again there are no roms built for .629, so you need to search for ones that are reported to work, and how they got them to work
In general, according to people who use CM9 on top of .629, any .608 ROM works on .629. There are no differences.

have you tried, wiping cache/data, after flashing
not for me, used latest CM9 and CM7 nightlies, freezes at M logo... only before flashing update.zip for getting from .608 (hybrid?) to .629... custom roms work somewhat ok, without wi-fi, Sound Settings fc, and other little details...

yeah, after, and before... no sucess

you could try
1-wipe data,cache,davlick
2-mount and format system
3-mount system and install zip
done, no results...
I get the same results after flashing MIUI over .629. It flashes ok using Droid X(2-int) recovery but after that its bugy as hell. I cant switch to GSM, tried dialing 46xx number and using network toggle. GSM doesn't see to work at all and when i try to restore my old rom it gets stuck on M logo.
Transceiver issues are in no way related to CWM.
It would be nice if someone who is on .629 can confirm that GSM works on CM7,9 MIUI or any other room. I want some ICS goodness but it looks like it would be just a waste of time flashing again.
Well, .629 doesn't really differ from .608 if you're looking at it from a custom ROM's point of view. Same kernel and modules, and that's all a custom ROM needs from the “base” system.

Thanks also working for me, just a slight typo in the code to flash the recovery .IMG.
Is it possible to flash CM11 with this recovery or should we still wait?

Works great! Thanks dhacker29 !
I do have a problem sometimes booting into recovery or restarting recovery while plugged into a power source. the xt926 will just get stuck either on the duel core logo or just stay on a black background. when I unplug the power source the recovery boots up normally.
Which isn't a big problem though everything else seems to be working great.

Thanks I'll test that

Flashed recovery successful. Flash supersu and root, successful. Back up, successful. I'll try restore someday during the week. So far so good.

@dhacker29 I flashed this TWRP to Razr M and found issues - it`s xhdpi, but Razr M wants hdpi version ((
Can you make TWRP 2.7.1.0 hdpi for XT907?
Thank you dhacker29, just flashed it on my xt925.
It works well.
Made a backup, went back to 4.1.2 just for testing (full wipe with RSD), upgraded again to 4.4 and restored my backup.
Thanks
Worked perfectly!
Thank you. this thing was awesome. Used Matt's Droid Utility 1.4 to wipe from Cyanogen 11 to the Offical KK and then this for SuperSU and Titanium backup. whole thing didn't take an hour
It is SO nice to have TWRP back on my RAZR HD after upgrading to KitKat.
Thanks for much for this!
So what happens if we flash this over aosp kk instead of stock kk?

It won't work unless you have the new bootloader from stock KK.
I upgraded to the latest KitKat stock and have an itch to flash some of the custom Roms out there, but to my knowledge I think I would have to downgrade back to the old boot loader along with an older recovery in order to flash the older Roms.
Can anyone confirm?
For some reason this wont work on my xt926, it loops the Motorola boot logo forever.
Thanks anyway, DH. Going back to CWM for now.
Works well on my XT926, thank you so much!:good:

I stuck on KitKat rom, it drains battery like hell...and when i tried to flash gingerboard in cwm recovery, installation aborted.... how do i flash gingerbread rom?

HI for Kitkat ROM, you would have flashed higher version Recovery. Whereas for Gingerbread ROMs, CWM recovery compatiable is required. Flash suitable recovery before flashing ROM.
Hope it helps you.
