Hi all,
I rooted my Softbank 201m XT907 Razr M but during the process screwed up my recovery and I am not left without a Stock rom. I have managed to flash a custom rom but I cannot use it without APN settings which (I have heard) are obtainable via Sbm4GSimInfo.apk if I am running a stock rom.
Does anyone have the stock that they would be kind enough to share with me? and also, the Verizon stock rom is different to the Softbank one right?so it won't work.
Thanks All!

Try his original not mine
The DroidRazrWidget is what you may need, not sure though. Go to his forum. I have a link in my posts.
Thanks

Not sure if this is really what I'm looking for. It looks like the stock but it isn't the 201m version that I need. Thank you anyway. I might give it a try. Nothing to lose at this point.

Guys,
I am interested in rooting my Telus Hero, but I am wanting to know if there is an original ROM image available for the Telus variant so that I can restore the phone to factory configuration if I need to. I mainly want to do this to install the Google Turn-By-Turn Navigation on it.
Thanks,
Y2J
just do a nandroid backup of your telus rom before flashing...
In order to do a Nandroid backup I have to root the phone first correct? If this is the case, then there is no way to unroot the phone to it's default out of box state, correct?
Thanks,
Y2J
Not quite correct, but close enough so as not to matter.
You don't need to be rooted to run Nandroid, but you do need to boot a custom recovery image. On earlier stock ROMs, it was possible to boot a recovery image without flashing it do the device, but this probably isn't an option for you since I guess the Telus Hero has the new SPL which disallows this.
What you really need is an original Telus RUU, but I'm not aware if this publicly exists.
Regards,
Dave
That's correct, there's no public Telus RUU.
If you really want a Telus stock ROM to revert to, wait till the eclair update comes out.
@y2jdmbfan
I was in the same boat as you. Wanted to use custom ROM but always wanted to have to option to go back to stock Telus ROM. I lasted a little over a month and bit the bullet. To be honest, if you are comfortable with customs roms and general phone hacking then I don't think there's a need to wait. There are some good stable custom roms out there and I don't see a need to ever go back to stock Telus (unless you need warranty work perhaps? but not sure).
I may bite the bullet tonight and try it out. I am using mine on AT&T in the USA anyways, so warranty work is out of the question.
To be honest, if you've flashed a custom ROM and you phone does go wrong, in order to get it back to stock your phone would need function to such an extent that you could load an RUU on to it - if it was completely dead or the USB died, it wouldn't matter if you had an RUU because you wouldn't be able to install it anyway.
Regards,
Dave

Just do it.
I have mine running on Rooted 2.73.405.66
Everything stock except it was rooted. Works great.
Hey, how did you root it on the stock?
Did you need to downgrade RUU?
I know I had too... could you make a ROM for all the people that want the stock..
If you want to go back to Telus 2.1 here's the link to the rom:

Hi. I'm assuming your phone is rooted? If so, download ROM manager, and you can preserve the ROM from there...
To view stock ROMs please visit samsfirmware<dot>com and download the ROM you want i.e. version, brand (network specific), country etc.
I'll be honest, haven't once regretted upgrading to Froyo. For more information on upgrading see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=778880

Did you try the superoneclick method of rooting during boot? Follow the link in my sig for instructions
Can anyone direct me to a guide to return the Atrix to stock without original firmware and no root. I have a problem with my fine and I need to have it replaced by AT&T, but want to have it back to normal before I return it. I know I seen the guide before, but I just cant find it.
Im currently running version 1.57 and it has sideload enabled from when I rooted before updating. Im not sure if that matters. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
i think you need to follow this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991072
just install 1.2.6 "original" file, then get the 1.5.7 update from motorola (from the phone) and thats it.

use the search function next time.
also they don't look to see if its rooted. just tell them you have an issue with call quality and they'll just exchange it.
Thanks for the responses. For some reason I was having a problem with XDA for a few hours yesterday (still am actually) and the search function will not work. No matter what I put in it says no results are available. Still trying to figure out why its happening.
Thanks for the link saar73, I was actually looking at that post but wasnt sure if thats what I should do because I wasnt familiar with flashing a SBF. Ive never heard of stock being called a SBF file. I try that right now. Thanks again.
hi guys I have a HTC BOLT , familiar with that phone. Now my gf have a droid x which I'm not too familiar with. Its rooted and flashed to Cricket. I want to ask if I flash it to a custom Rom would i lose the Cricket flash also ? If not then how do I flash a custom Rom? If anyone is willing to help I'll paypal ya =) . Its for my gf so I really need to do it hehehe.

I'm not really familiar with what android version Cricket currently has on the Droid X, but I just picked up one this week from C Spire. My best suggestion would be to just root and uninstall any preinstalled apps that you couldn't otherwise if you don't have to sbf for your carrier and android version readily available. I'll actually be returning my phone this morning because I made the mistake of trying to flash Liberty3, and it somehow has FUBAR'd the bootloader on my end (absolutely no luck with the sbf using rsd lite or sbf flash on ubuntu).
Coming from the HTC Hero, I can go ahead and tell you that the way these two companies do bootloaders are entirely different beasts. The Hero was an absolute breeze to root and flash roms on, but that may also have been because of its huge userbase at one point as well. Anyways, I'm not sure exactly what you mean by losing the Cricket flash, but the original rom will be completely replaced if you flash the rom correctly (wiping data, cache, and dalvik from the bootloader).
edit:
After Googling some terms for the Droid X on Cricket, I don't think you'll have nearly as much of an issue if you follow the guides available. Just read carefully and always do a nandroid backup if possible.

You will not lost the flash unless you SBF, or upgrade to gingerbread if your not currently on it. The worst part about flashing custom ROM's is getting everything working again. What I mean about everything working is MMS, and web. MMS is the hardest. Try my thread here http://www.cricketusers.com/verizon-motorola-droid-x/12264-working-apn-mms-apk.html#post21416 and see if you can get it working. Before doing anything make a backup so you can fall back onto a working rom.

Im using the Stock rom for WinMo 6.1
anything else?
Uhhh...
Blackstone/Shipped ROMs Which one?
As you can see, they use various radio versions. And various rilphone.
So, did you try to flash another radio? Like 1.17? With rilphone 1.15? Since these two never made into official stock ROM...

Sorry i dont know which one im currently using, ive kept it on stock since when i brought it and havent flashed it. Does unlocking the phone cause any problems?
Anyone know a good rom that could fix this?
First FIND OUT what exactly is your original ROM version (or try to update it via HTC update page).
Then flash newer radio and install adequate rilphone.
If that doesn't help, flash latest Orange ROM from the link I supplied.
If that helps, welcome to custom ROM flashing...
Oh, and unlocking should not cause such kind of problems.

You should NOT loose your unlock. It's not connected with ROM.
