How to unroot 2.2 OTA?

Guys,
I was wondering if it possible to unroot My Droid X that has 2.2 OTA from Verizon? I tried to unroot with a few root/unroot problems but once I reboot the Black Ninja is still there and I'm still rooted. The only reason why I want to know just in case I might have to return my phone to Verizon . Thanks in advance.

There may be an easier solution but why not use RSD and the OTA 2.2 SBF. I know it is not a complete SBF for OTA 2.2 but it should reload the OTA 2.2 system files thous removing root and restoring the phone back to OTA 2.2.

Do you know where I might be able to get the 2.2 OTA ? THanks.

If you follow this link you should be able to get RSD as well as the SBF file needed.

The 2.2 sbf file is just the system files without any apps? Would I be able to get the official 2.2 ota once I flash with the.2.2 system only sbf?

The SBF should be the system files so I would think it would have all the stock apps with it as well. To be honest I haven't tried using it to see what it restores but like I said I would assume all the stock apps should be reinstalled with it I would imagine.

Then what's the difference between the official 2.2ota sbf that isn't released yet?

[Q] SBF Flash in RSB lite 4.7

i have a droid x that cannot receive the the new 2.3.340 update. i guess some bloatware has been deleted and then reinstalled via apk's. after installing the bloatware it still wont install so now i wanna try restoring the phone back to 2.1. is there anything special i need to know about doing this? anyone have links to help me out? i have been researching this for most of the day but havent had any luck. the link i have downloaded, contains RSD lite 4.7 w the patch, motorola drivers and SBF 2.1 dx patch. idk if having the leaked version of 2.2 vs an ota version of 2.2 will make a difference thanks, Adam

Use rsd 4.8 and you can just flash the 2.3.320 full sbf then the 2.3.340 system only sbf and you will be on the most recent verzion. There are detailed tutorials somewhere on here to do this.

2.3.340 Leak to OTA

Did a little digging, but can't find my exact problem.
I'm on the leaked 2.3.340 using the update to 2.3.320 update, followed by the SBF to 2.3.340. I would like to update to the OTA, but need to know if it's necessary. I've seen posts about updating the kernel, radio, and stuff. Did the SBFs not update these files?
I attempted to use the 2.2 OTA SBF to go back and update, but that failed. My old nandroid of the 2.2 OTA is failing to update (it downloads, but reboots saying failed update). What should I do?

Is it just the patches that you want?

Awesome, thanks. I'll scan that thread to figure out what and how to update.

I used the 2.3.320 SBF and then used the system updater in that link I provided for. 340. I don't know if it makes a difference since we both got to 340 in a different way.

Well, because of my upgrade method all I had to upgrade was my kernel. Working like a dream now.

Perfect. Glad you got it working.

[Q] What should I update to?

I am in between going to GB and staying where I am at.
My issue is that I am on a version of 2.2.1 Stock that I obtained through TBH around the holidays....file was literally called "happy holidays from TBH" however, this was the 2.3.320 version of the OTA update, not the 2.3.340 version that everyone seems to have.
So the real question is, can I jump straight from 2.3.320 to GB? OR do I need to flash to 2.3.34 since when I check for OTA updates the phone tells me that I am currently up to date.
If I flash to 2.3.34, then I should probably just go straight to gingerbread rooted. However, how would I get the OTA gingerbread when it comes out? Otherwise I would be right back where I am now in about a month or so.
I need to either update to the current froyo and wait for the OTA release of GB, or update to current froyo (2.2.34) and then update again to the new rooted 2.3.3? Right? can someone confirm?
PS. I already have the 2.3.340 .sbf file (445MB) and the 2.3.3 rooted file from p3droid so I am good to go there if necessary.

if you have the 2.3.340 sbf go ahead and flash it first just to be sure...then gingerbread the whole process will only take u 30 minutes its really not that big of a deal

I might as well go ahead and update to 2.3.340 however, I am now seeing on droidxforums that there is another version of 2.3.340 called maderstcok...can't post a link but here is a partial url: droidxforums.com/forum/droid-x-hacks/15666-maderstcok-ota-2-3-340-update-zip.html
The one that I have is from xda via the noobs guide (links to mydroidworld), so I trust that one more... however, this file is an update.zip, not an .sbf. So it could potentially be easier to do?

I would also like to know if it makes any difference if I use the 4.8 version of RSD lite versus 4.9
I am currently using the 4.7.1 drivers as well, pretty sure that that is right, but if there is a newer version, let me know

bump, just want a second opinion

Maderstckok will get you to where you need to be (2.3.340) I've used it 10+ times it's a great file. Then reboot, reroot, and flash GB.

I used 4.8. It'll work fine.

Ditto - 4.8 worked like a charm.

thanks guys, downloading now and will update to 2.3.34, gonna check around for some more ideas on whether or not to go ahead and get GB or wait for the OTA...i have seen some threads with issues with wireless tether, which is one of my reasons for rooting in the first place

so far so good, rooted with z4 after updating to 2.3.34 with maderstock....awesome file, best experience yet with the clockworkmod going to stock. Will update to GB tomorrow. Some of the deodexed roms look really good!

done...on GB, added the deodexed and got the stock BWC theme which is working great. Will maybe flash more custom roms later as they become more mature for GB. otherwise, freezing bulr apps.

Will I be able to update to ota 2.3 with leaked 2.2?

I am currently running a leaked version of 2.2.
Does anyone know if I will be able to get the ota update to 2.3 that's rumored to be coming out soon?
Thanks

From what I read, no, you cannot go directly from a leaked version to OTA. You will need to sbf back to stock froyo (will all bloatware intact) before you can get the OTA update. There is a link somewhere in the forums to the sbf files.

My kernel is 2.6.32.9-gfb07887
android version: 2.2
system version: 2.3.9.mb810.verizon.en.us

Wow. To be honest, I have never seen that system version. Anyway just go to the site I mentioned above and look for the droid x. You also could probably use a file called madderstock.zip which will accomplish the same the but I do not currently remember where to find it

U can find maderstock file here... Its a flashable .zip ... Same as sbfing your phone just apply using dxbootstrap

Google search sbf droid x 30.01. Lol that was my bootloader when I permanently bricked my first DX. But thats a different story.
You could try the newest sbf file as mentioned above. I actually am not sure if it will update your bootloader, but I haven't tried it so I would trust the person who posted it

Here is the info you need:
http://1kds.net/SBF-Page.php
You will have to get to system 2.3.340 to get the official update. You will need to be stock (you can have root). You have to have all bloat replaced, no bootstrap, and odexed. An sbf will do all this for you.
