SBF - Droid 2 General

How do u SBF while bootlooping???
Because my computer won't recognize my D2

You can't sbf while booting!!! You have to put ur phone in boot loader mode by turning the phone off, then press the up key and the power button at the same time( always press the up before u press the power button) then u find yourself at a screen with black backround and white text and plug it into your computer. When the screen on ur phone says under "transfer mode", " USB" ur good 2 go.
P.S always have more then 50% battery when u SBF, cause I doesn't charge in boot loarder mode

i use windows vista 32bit

Load the drivers from Motorola. There's a sticky, I think...
I've done it on xp. I think the last time I noticed that the Windows device manager didn't show that it had a driver for everything, but rsd lite was able to see and flash the phone.

try 2 follow this video http://kimete.com/dosbf.html
if u dont want to install ubuntu use a live disk and download the files first to a usb drive then do what the video tells u 2

Anyone have any updated links for RSD Lite download??

Did I just brick my phone??

Oh my god I think I bricked my phone!!! I turn it on now and i see the m for motorola but then nothing else happens!! I try to go into recovery and reboot doesn't help try to update from sd card doesn't help try to wipe factory settings doesn't help. Geez I'm so screwed any suggestions?? It's like my phone has been completely erased but I know in backed everything up to sd card. How do I get my phone to work. I have motorola droid x btw. Any suggestions??
Dude calm down you're fine. I've done that a couple times.
Download rsdLite and the latest .sbf. probably 2.2.340 or whatever. Connect your phone via USB, open rsdLite, then turn on your phone holding down camera and volume down buttons I think.. to go into bootloader. Google it. Anyways, it'll say "connect USB data cable". Slect the .sbf in rsdLite and wait till its done. Then you have a stock dx. Download bootstrapper again and flash to the rom on your SD card. The whole process, including downloading the .sbf and rsdLite will take under 30 min.

Help.
I tried to do that but I can't seem to get the motorola device to sync with file. I see there is an option that says "start" and I'm sure that downloads the file to the phone but I can't seem to sync it. In other words I downloaded file and plugged in USB from phone to computer but can't download file to phone. Please walk me through step by step. Please I'm desperate.

You probably need to just download the correct drivers for your PC. Is it 32 or 64 bit?
Forever29 is correct. Sorry I didn't reply last nite. My transmission blew anyway. Make sure you install the drivers. Then put the phone in bootloader. Plug it in. Wait for windows to recognize the device with its little pop ups. When it finishes, then start rsdLite.
Oh, and thank you Mikeinrichmond

[Q] MM2 and big problem - white screen on starting

Hi,
i have Motorola Milestone2/Droid2, buyed in UK, now using in poland..
Yesterday i root the phone by z4root and change my rom to Liberty rom from this forum. I make a mistake - i installed rom for 320/340 phones which i dont have.
now i tried to res my phone using method by DOSBF in linux but this dont work'd - after 10-15second when i started terminal turn's of himself and dont work.
same in windows on RSD lite (versions from 4.6.x to 4.9), he dont see file proporties ( i downloaded many sbf files and he dont see it) i read all threads and use all possible options. now after pressing power button i see white screen for 10 second and phone makes he off.
Anyone have some ideas? i do donate 30$ if someone help me to make my droid 2 back to work!
thank to read this.
Greeting's! Adeno
I don't have my Milestone 2 yet, but from reading other threads, you may be able to boot into recovery mode and take it from there...see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10967806&postcount=4

yep, but i dont have any recovery on phone or that recovery what i have is not for my phone ...
RSDlite dont see file proporties.. i dont know why. if RSD will see file proporties its not problem but when i apply sbf file "start" button is still non-active and i can't make it.
i try to find battery loader or other droid2 and i load battery. maybe ubuntu and droid.sh command will work'd (earlier phone switchin off when i do in terminal DOsbf method - maybe then battery have weak power)
sorry for my bad english ...
Hey,
Here is what you need to do:
1. Download RSD Lite 5+ (not 4.x)
2. Download the correct Motorola SBF file I am not able to post any links -- New user here ;-)
Since your A953 is from UK, like mine -- I guess it will be: MILS2_U6_2.2.16_SIGNED_UCAMILESTONE2B1B80E100A.0R_UCXMILE20RTGB_P029_A007_HWp2a_Service1FF.sbf
3. Turn off your Phone
4. Install, Motorola Milestone Drivers for your PC
5. Hold Volume Down+Camera button and turn on your phone -- You should get some white text saying Bootloader-v70.12 , plugin your USB, etc...
6. Plugin your USB, wait for 10-20 seconds and start RSD Lite (as administrator)
7. Flash your phone
You are welcome to PM me if you don't have any of the files..
Good luck !

I used to love your ROMs for my old Touch HD.. good to see you now have a Galaxy S!
Not so sure from your posts above what method you have tried. When are you trying to connect Odin? You need to be in Download Mode first, fire up Odin, then connect your phone...
Is this what you are doing?
Also, which version of Odin you using? In Win7 you may need to right click and run as administrator?
The best way is to look on the odin how to here in forum

Brother, use Odin3 v1.7 from my signature & see if it detects? A lot of guys have recovered their phones using 1.7. trust me.
pull the battery
wait a few seconds
put the battery back in
hold vol-down + power + home
You should get into download mode
connect the phone physically to the pc
flash a ROM or a kernel or whatever you desire
I wish you good luck^^
Close any kies process running in background and try again

The jig most likely wont work if the phone is completely dead, you could try a hairdryer it seems to work sometimes. Otherwise its back to samsung.

[Solved Like 9 Months Ago, Staph!!]Stuck on galaxy y logo please help!

All you need to do is.. go to recovery and wipe data.. then reboot.. it will work
..
Also, remember.. whenever you flash stock via Odin.. do the above steps..
This thread serves the same purpose of this..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1600373
You have odin and the stock rom files too? If yes remove the battery and put it in again. Press and hold volume down button home button and lock button and you will be in download mode. Now just connect the phone start odin put the three files on it(pda,modem and csc) and flash and you are good to go

Maybe a conflict between Odin and Kies. Close all kies processes. And be sure that you are in download mode.
Bro heres what you need to d0... Download samsung device drivers from somewhere (galaxy fit files will do just fine... Btw make sure u got the latest odin for G y i use 1.85)

It isn't always necessary to uninstall kies. Reinstalling the drivers only will do.
You should not have any problem if your able to access the "download" or "odin" mode (volume down+home+lock screen). Try to youtube flashing via odin if you are having a hard time with all of this. I believe that visual aids would become very helpful.
Btw. What did you do your phone?
Sent from my GT-S5360 via freenet
Surely, its the drivers.
1 Uninstall KIES
2 Install Drivers ( You can even use Windows Update)
3 Try flashing
How old is your pc maybe its problem with pc... like mine for example its like 7 yrs old already and all usb ports at back are not working except for the two in front but my pc cant detect my phone in download mode, had to use my grandparents laptop just to flash using odin...... but funny thing is i can use adb just fine except for a few times where it cant detect my phone too... same for using mass storage

i don't know what is Odin mod eand how to go into it. My phone is stuck on the logo screen when installing ChobitsDigitalis V2. And I also don't know what is flashing stock kernels because a friend of mine help me installed the rom and the result was the logo screen stuck there for an hour. I really don't know what to do cause I am new to this. I tried wiping cache and factory reset but also doesn't works, and i really want to make the installation of my InfectedBlazing rom perfectly. :crying::crying::crying: Please also point me in the correct direction. Thank you very much for the people who replies. I will thank you a lot.

Droid Pro not being picked up by RSD Lite

I've read just about every thread and no luck. I updated to a CM port by vanillaLVL, and forgot to back up.
I want to use an sbf to go back to 2.3.3 so I can start fresh with a better rom because his rom doesnt have good in call volume and messes up my bluetooth.
So far every thread about fixing RSD Lite will not work for me.
RSD Lite will not recognize my Droid pro, whether I use Bootloader, CWM, or Usb Debugging mode while phone is on. I have tried looking at every fix, but nothing works. Any tips on how to fix RSD Lite, or how to fix my phone to get it back to stock? I tried using update.zips but I always get an error in the build.prop stopping the update.

When i BSF mine i used version 5.6, do you have Moto drivers installed? also just in case make sure you are using a 32 bits version of Windows
I think my windows is 32 bit, and I dled the newest Motorola drivers from the site, but still doesn't work :/ my phone can't access stock recovery either, so might that be causing the issue?

Hey dude... Okay to start off ill tell you what you need... you need to download the base drivers from motorola and have a 32 bit windows computer... What you want to do from there is uninstall your previous drivers... reboot your pc then install them... reboot your pc... now comes the tricky part... take your droid and hold down the volume keys and the button on the right side of your phone and while holding all thoes down hold the power down too .. wait about 30 secs or till the lcd slightly lites up and let go a simple menu should pop up on your phone... now plug in your phone and wait for 10 min if nothing shows up unplug it and plug it in with a different cord and if nothing pops up in 5 min open rsd lite and your phone should show up... now browse to your .sbf or your .sbf.zip and start the flashing process (just click start)..... tell me if this works please!!!
