i had xrecovery installed and was running z's beta 4 rom my atnt signal went out and i thought id try reinstalling from se webite now i cant get xrecovery to work cany anyone help me please
Did you flash any new SE firmware from a SE program? If you did, you will need to get the baseband you want, reroot, and do the busybox install and xrecovery all over again.
If that's what you did.
Update us here with new information.
Well man you should've just reinstalled the rom. That would have been much easier but whatever. Try installing the xrecovery apk in the development section. It says xrecovery on it and is by zhidzhu. If that doesn't work then you'll need flash tool

Perhaps you just forgot to root first?

Reinstall XRecovery! just put the busybox, chargemon and Xrecovery.tar files in system/bin

You can do that with Super One Click. Just start it and click Unroot.

I used Super One Click to root, didn't know it could be used to unroot as well.
On an unrelated note, is there an easy way to install Xrecovery?
Roland
You can find in Development section.

Why do you want to unroot?
or an easy way , just use SE Update service and re-install the latest update from Sony Ericsson
Don't need to update the software just for that. It can be done on the easyer way.
Use Super One Click, it was very easy for me to root my X8 using it. I believe it is easy to indoor too.
Before you start read to topic instructions.

Will using SE Update to reinstall the last update remove any trace that my phone has been rooted?
Roland
Yes...
But for what?

yep , it will remove any trace
Manual unroot:
Remove su, busybox and xrecovery.tar from /system/bin and push original chargemon in case you had xRecovery, clean up /data/local/tmp to remove RATC or psneuter exploit and uninstall Superuser. And if you've maybe chmodded any files in /system that are not listed above, first go to xRecovery and fix permissions.

It's good if I return the update 1.6 and I did the normal update?
Go to se websites, download phone update software,install it on your pc,follw the instruction given by the software..

Very probably, people that want to unroot, just want to return the phone because it got broken somehow, or simply because they want to switch for another phone or other type of product.... =P (WHY?!)
I've just installed elelinux, everything looked good, but when i restarted my phone i got this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZAZzZaYc97E
From then i can't use my phone, i have to go back to 2.1 with flash tool to start over.
Before i had the same problem with miniCM and with floyo. Why is that happening? Someone help me PLS.
Hmm interesting.
First, try factory reset in xrecovery.
And if u cant access recovery try push twice power off button, when se logo appears

What did you do before this happened? You installed something?
have you updated your busybox?

Because that causes your problems.
Never update Busybox!!!
If you update it, you will brick your phone

THANK YOU!!! Also I just made a new thread on vibrant general thread, idk if you can help me out, just Im just saying, thanks
Hi everyone, I been reading on this forum for a quiet some time now but never felt the need to create an account to post any questions. because i always find informative threads that help me solved my problems but not this time.
i been helping my friend to tried to install a custom rom on his D2, i wouldnt say im very experienced, but i have done it to couple other phones including a droid x so im kind of familiar with what to do.
so i rooted it, bootstrapped, using rom manager to install cwm, then bootstrapped to cwm recovery, from there wipe data / cache, then install zip from sd.
i tried with cyanogen mod first, but it didnt work, it would get stuck on the m logo after rom is installed, so i sbfed it and repeat the whole process and installed the liberty this time but same thing happened again, so i repeated the whole process again and i tried liquid smooth just now, and it still didnt work.
is there something im missing?
You need to make sure the phone is on gb. Also wipe data/cache/dalvik once before you flash and twice after.

so it has to be 2.3 and above? the system say its 2.2 right now, but the sbf file i used its "vbz a955 2.3.20_1ff" so i assumed it was on gb. is there specific version of gb i need to upgrade to?
thanks for the suggestion
To flash cm7 or any gingerbread rom you have to first be on the ota 2.3.3
Sent from my DROID2 using xda premium
ooohh thanks! whats the best way to update to 2.3.3? do you have a link? all the links i see is for 2.3.0
thanks alot hope if works
The best was to update is to sbf to stock 2.2 then accept the ota update. Then once you update you can root, bootstrap then install cm7.

Hi! I just flashed CM7 and for some reason the google apps wouldnt install but the ROM is working. I followed the youtube tutorial using file expert and the gapps 2.3.4 but it says it cant install for some reason. I would appreciate any help on this matter!!
Does it give you any more information?
Make sure you flash it, not try to install via Android!
Yeah, I did that. I think ill just restore and flash a new Rom.
