I decided to flash cyanogen mod. I downloaded a stable release from rom manager onto my sd card, booted into recovery and now I am stuck on the M. And of course you can't get to cwm to restore a backup unless the devise boots, I tried pulling the battery to see if it would boot into cwm like it was supposed to but it doesnt. So looks like I need to flash and I have no idea how to do that on this phone. So if someone could link me the files and give me some basic instructions to follow that would be awsome.
Thanks

Finally back up and running it took me some time since wifi didnt work on .608, so I followed this procedure. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/23207-how-to-sbf-unbricking-root-d2g-629/
It works good for unbricking, a little complicated if you dont have a data connection like me and wifi doesnt work on the flash, so I skipped ota and lost root but oh well. I can root again tomorrow. So does anyone know what could have possibly happened when I flashed cyanogen mod through cwm because thats what caused my brick.
which cm7? official is still flashed on froyo 2.2
have to use unofficial, try rootzwiki

for unbricking just use 629 ezSBF or 629 sbf and rsd lite

Did you follow my d2 bootstrap instructions?
[HOW TO] Install/Use Droid 2 Bootstrap
unless you know the build history, roms from rom manager, should not be used on D2G
[DEV_THREAD]Droid 2 Global CM7 with Gingerbread Leak Kernel
lastest looks like Pooka-CM4D2G-GB-20120519
I did follow the droid bootstrap instructions I just figured I could flash anything for the droid 2 honestly I didn't know that the global and regular droid 2 were that different guess I learned that the hard way but at least I know now and I learned how to root and sbf all in one night.

radio is different, but the kernel is also different
some of the devs, made versions for DX, D2, and D2G, at the same time, because they are very similar

the first D2G cm9 rom, was a port from Droid pro rom

I used the link you provided me with and the one you said was the latest
so you didn't flash gapps?
I don't see a gapps link, in this thread
which is fine, but if you flash wrong one, you may bootloop
cm roms do not come with google apps like play, gmail....
how long did you let it run, sometimes it can take a couple of mins, to boot first time
you may need to also wipe dalvik cache in advanced, that was recommended many time for D2G roms, but will add time to first boot

I did not flash gaaps but I did wipe the dalvic cache and let it run for a good 5 mins and it just kept restarting with the boot animation.

If there is some kind of chat or something or exact steps i could have to flash this and get it to boot that would be great. I know on my samsung continuum we use the irc to chat.
could be bad download, download again and compare md5 checksums
.
or try a different rom
general steps are posted with my bootstrap instructions

Honestly is Cm even good on the droid 2? Because at this pint with all these failed flashes and the phone not being able to get into cwm like a regular phone it makes it harder to get back because you can't just restore a nandroid back up. So in your opinion is it honestly worth it, or are there better roms out there for this phone?
whether or not it's worth it, is up to you
not a lot of choices for D2G, I liked CM9 and miui
check out the threads over @ rootzwiki

Out of all the flashes I have tried it boot loops and its annoying to have to go and flash in RSD because I cant boot into recovery like I can on a normal phone where the recovery is overwritten. So with all these bad flashes I have kind of given up on this droid 2 and its just on stock rooted. Usually when I boot loop on my continuum i just jump into recovery and re flash with this phone I cant.
why are you using rsd lite? how are you rooting?
just use D2G_4.5.629_SBF-and-RootCD.iso

I rooted with the method where you have to boot into a linux system. Then I have been using rsd lite because I have had to keep flashing back to stock
Hi,
Current Configuration:
Bootloader Unlocked,
Rooted
HBOOT 1.14
Rom: CleanRom 5.1
Since I"m on HBOOT 1.14, I understand I have to manually flash boot for each rom I flash; however, I can't seem to get any non-sense roms to work. The rom flashes with no issues, I flash boot of the new rom, boot, but once I get to the launcher, none of the of the apps seem to work. Please advise this NOOB. Much Appreciated!

Sounds like adb might be having an issue? Check out the walkthrough.
There is another thread out there about flashing kernel via an apk. I'll see if I can locate for you

Thanks for the reply, after trying the steps once more, I'm still having same issues. Once I boot to CM10, I get a barrage of "Unfortunately, "Insert App Name" has stopped".... :crying:

make sure that before flashing you wipe (at least) the cache and dalvik cache. if you are changing from sense to aosp or vice versa you will probably want to do a factory reset in twrp (not in the bootloader - this corrupts the sdcard).
Hey guys,
Hoping someone could help me out.
I just flashed and installed CM10,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790032
Even since I installed it my data connection for mobile data no longer works. My signal has decreased drastically to only 1-2 bars max.
I can still make calls and text, but can't use my mobile data at all.
Any ideas?
Please help!

Did you do full wipe (reset,cache, and dalvik) before install? Get the correct Rom for type of phone (GSM, CDMA)? Have the correct version for your hboot and radio? Need some details

I would like someone to confirm, but from reading bits and pieces over XDA I think I understand how to root and install cm12.. So I'm on the updated stock lollipop. I understand that you can root with the one click program and install twrp through something like flashify. Once in recovery I need to flash the 20g bootstack and the JB bootloader, then I can proceed to flash cm12 and gapps...if that's right, someone please let me know.

You confirmed that the bootloader is unlocked?
You flashed TWRP using the fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery name-of-file.img?
