My Droid 2 Global got Stuck on M logo

This is my bad day . My Droid 2 Global got stuck on M logo when I tried to root and install the new ROM . I have tried alot of SBF from the Droid 2 but it's seem nothing fix my phone. So, anyone can help me with the new SBF for Droid 2 Global

Which SBF did you use? I'm not aware of one being released for the D2G and using the one for the D2 will certainly screw up your phone.

There isn't a SBF for the D2G yet. You should have waited for it before trying anything like this.

If the sbf did work after you sbf you need to:
1. Pull your Battery.
2. Replace battery and power on while holding down the X key.
3. Wait for the android triangle to load.
4. Press the Search key (the magnifying glass)
5. Use down arrow and navigate to wipe data/factory reset and press OK.
6. Reboot phone.
If that doesn't work than you might be SOL.
If you get the M logo and you have a backup. (always try and restore a backup before you SBF)
Pull your battery and place it back in after 5 seconds or so (we just want the phone completely off)
(while completely off) Plug your phone into the wall charger.
Then turn your phone on. If you get the charging screen press power again.
now you should be in clockwork recovery so you can do a restore if you made a backup.

I've used all the sbf that I searched in this forum but it wasn't work. I think there are a different SBF for Droid 2 Global.

I assumed so but I also assumed that if the boot loader hasn't changed one could /theoretically/ flash the 2.3.2 sbf and /possibly/ be okay. I wouldn't recommend any D2 G users to flash ROMs or anything until the SBF specifically for the D2 Global is released. I would suggest rooting and getting a backup made if the user want's to eventually flash ROMs.

Did you make a backup with koush's bootstrapped clockwork recovery? if so you should try and restore it. otherwise you might be out of luck until the sbf drops.

Maybe I'm out of Luck . But is there a chance to update the new ROM using the stock Recovery ? . I saw there are the option apply: update.zip

It will only work if you have the rom signed with moto's keys or it won't get through. That's why we use koush's bootstrapped clockwork. Because it doesn't have signature verification. Well it does but we can toggle it off.

Can you estimate when the SBF for D2 G release ?

I have the same problem with the droid 2, except i mistakenly flashed with the droid 2 global without really thinking about it. I'm stuck at the M logo, and i've tried doing all of the above but i cannot get into clockwork recovery. Any suggestions? if I bricked my phone, how would i go about getting it fixed from verizon?

I remembered that i install the stock ROm deodexed for Droid 2 Global . But why my phone bricked ? Is that the problem from my phone?

You should sbf your droid 2 with the 2.3.2 sbf. Search in droid 2 android development section. There are two ways to flash it. One in windows the other in linux. I made a tool so people can use any computer to flash in linux. Search in the android development section for the droid 2 and it's there if you need it. I recommend reading and reading and reading then flash it. You'll be wiser and you'll know each step before you do it. It's not difficult and if you are going to flash ROMs you need to need to know how to sbf.
If your phone boots it's not bricked. And read every post here before trying to return it to verizon. If you have the desire to flash ROMs to your phone you can to the research to fix any mishaps. If after you read every post and you still have no idea or the methods applied haven't worked then you have my permission to take it back to verizon with the excuse that the update messed up your phone. Thanks and happy fixing!

The phone is Droid 2 Global. There is no sbf available for D2G yet. More and more users are getting confused. Please vote in the thread for dedicated section for D2G @XDA!

I was not commenting to hamabucon I was talking to dotmike who it seems has an Orginal Droid 2 (not global) and the advice is NOT for the Droid 2 Global. I'm sorry if it's confusing he posted in a thread about the D2 G and I was trying to help him where he posted his problem. I have not suggested that there is an Sbf for the D2 G. Sorry for the confusion but if we all read what each post relates to will help.

Yes, apologies for taking over a thread with my question, however to newk8600, I didn't know that holding the up key on the keyboard booted into the bootloader! I managed to sbf from there since RSDLite read the phone then.
Apologies for any confusion, and thank you again for the help.

motorola droid 2 bricked need help

i have Motorola droid 2 on 2.2 rooted with bootstrap recovery, everything was workin fine till i decided to install custom rom, which was unleashed epic 2.5 (by mat) and now everytime i turn on my phone it goes into a loop reboots and never turns on all the way.
i have tried using sbf RSDlite to restore it, tried using linux ubuntu(newk8600 method ty btw) method as well to restore it, none seems to work i keep getting errors whenever i try to do it.
however before i installed the custom rom i did full backup using bootstrap recovery but the only way (that i know) to get in recovery is using bootstrap app, so is there a way i can manually get into bootstrap recovery so i can restore from backup?
please let me know, or if you have different method i'll appreciate your help. thanks in advance.

Which version of the software did you have before you installed epic unleashed, and which SBF did you use?
From what I have heard, Epic Unleashed will "brick" your phone if you try to install it on the 2.3.20 build. Since your phone did get bricked, it's likely that you are running 2.3.20 and not 2.2. You might want to make sure you are using the 2.3.20 SBF to flash your phone, and not the 2.2 SBF (which won't work because the kernel changed between the two)...

What type of errors do you get?

i always have luck getting into clockwork recovery by having my phone plugged in and within the first few seconds taking out my battery forcing it to take along time booting after the M logo and hence putting it into clockwork. I hope this helps

after you get passed the M pull the battery then boot back up it should come up in to recovery

thank you all for your help, however i tried all of these steps already, but i found another way to get it workin, here is the solution to whom got the same problem as mine.
its not letting me post the link for some reason, anyway just search for (Droid 2 Global SBF File (2.4.29) Full and RSDLite ).
just got relased today , big thanks to team Black Hat and MyDroidWorld
hope that helps.

Glad you got it fixed. Let me ask you something though. Before you installed the custom rom, did you wipe data and cache? Not doing so could result in a bootloop.

Sounds like the OP was trying to install a ROM for the original Droid 2 on the Droid 2 Global. It wouldn't have worked, no matter what install steps were used.

It's all good people need to read where they are posting this is in the D2 General section not the D2 Global general section. That's half his problem, he's been looking at ROMs for the original D2 not the device that he currently uses.

really need some help

I just got milestone x and got it rooted and then bootstrapped recovery installed liberty rom gb and am now stuck at the boot logo I cannot reboot in to recovery and do not know what to do cannot find any sbf's back to stock any help please .

EVERY THING I FIND IS A RUN AROUND and constant ads and nothing is helping
I wish you the best of luck

[nandroid backup] Chinese gingerbread leak on Milestone 2

This is a copy of a nandroid backup of the leaked chinese rom and has been rooted from a Milestone 2
This nandroid backup was taken from a milestone flashed with the leaked chinese sbf.
The text-to-speak service is not included, if someone knows how to install this service it would be great, I miss using google navigation with voice.
Good luck!

And, you were on stock rom, or were you using Argent2Stone?
EDIT: Done with the download, will start backing up some things, and will try to restore this nandroid backup; and report back, im on Stock Froyo.

are there any requirements for this chinese rom? Like the newest froyo update, I ve got argen2stone and I m worried that I ll brick my phone while restoring the nandroid backup :/
Still it isn't a real flashing, just a backup? So it won't change your sbf from froyo to gingerbread, am I right?

How long did it take to boot? I'm on the 2.2.2 Movistar rom, and I restored the nandroid backup, wiped the data/cache and got stuck on the M logo after it flashes. After about 15 minutes I gave up and restored my backup.

WTF? And where the f**k is SBF? Can you upload it?

Try restoring factory settings from the default recovery. First boot did take a while around 10 mins.

Alright, I'll give it another shot.
edit: still stuck on the black M logo... used the motorola recovery to do a factory reset, still nothing. I'll wait a little bit longer. That's as far as I'll go. I'm not willing to flash the SBF yet, as I didn't see a single screenshot of it running on anyone else's phone.

Ok.. I flashed the nandroid, wiped with the phone recovery, I even went ahead and flashed the damn signed and unsigned SBF. The phone would not boot. With the SBFs the phone get's a red M logo and then a black screen. With the restored nandroid the phone doesn't go past the black/white M logo even after ~20ish minutes.
I'm flashing the 2.2.2 back to restore my stuff.

There's a debricking guide on ModaCo. Check it out
Sent from my Supernatural Blade

Go to Google, and type 'zte blade firmware'....Click on the first link (modaco), and follow those instructions...
In short:
You will need to flash the firmware, and install a custom rom...
I had been in this situation, so I know...No worries..

there is a guide on modaco to fix your phone from FTM Mode i had a similar problem and that guide was great at fixing my phone mate give it a try

As you guys said , i went through this .. http://android.modaco.com/topic/339048-guide-flashing-firmware-to-bladelibra-via-windows/
But cant understand step 8 and 9. First they say cwm 5.0.0.2 is the version for gen 2 and then flash 4.0.05 again?

Yes, when i flashed my phone for the first time i flashed 4... and then had to re flash back to 3.0.2 because that is the version that works best for my phone.

Okay so i got it to work. Its 5.0.0.2 for my phone, since i got a Gen 2 phone. But i want Dell stock firmware Android 2.2 Where can i get it?
