Help Returning to Stock - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

I have a CDMA Motorola Milestone A854 from MTS in Manitoba, Canada. I have cm7 installed with gingerbread 2.3.3. I am need to return to stock to have my phone serviced. However, the problem that I have is that the backup of the stock os disappeared on me. So, now I am unable to get the phone back to stock. How would I go about this now? Is there a place that I can get the stock rom? I have found one site, but it only has the Milestone from Telus.
Help please.

Nope. There is no stock rom available for it afaik.

[Q] US Tmobile SGH-T849 restore to stock?

Model: SGH-T849 | Code: TMB | Version: T849UVJJA/T849TMBJJA/T849UVJJA/T849UVJJA
Anyone have this or a dump of one? I flashed mine and want to go back to stock but no one seems to have it.
I'll *pay* for it. I thought I had backed it up before playing around, but I did not do it correctly or something and lost my original FW.
I don't want to have to "kill it" and take it back to T-Mo for a replacement if I can avoid it.
Can anyone help?

If you just want your 3G Internet back, all you have to do is flash the US modem.bin back.

I haven't succeeded in flashing back the whole firmware yet. I'm pretty happy with the Euro firmware.

Curious would tmobile take it back with the euro rom would they check? What would be best to do or what do they check for, I'm thinking of canceling and just buying contact free from amazon to avoid taxes

I think the op means that the stock firmware is on the Samsung FUS server and can downloaded if you know the URL. This willow people to go back to stock 100%.

I read a thread about a backup software that can be used..
is it possible to backup the whole roms and software of the tab before doing any flashing or modding to the original roms ...?
I have the entire Original rom backed up
How can I get it from you? I'll gladly paypal or whatever. I can do the modem.bin thing too I guess too.
Pls post any info about flashing back the stock firmware

This if great x2beach,...
do you like to share how did you do the backup, and does is restore the tab to its original state completely, thanks.
I did put the modem.bin back in (thanks for the info/link!) ... it works again but I think I have the bands messed up (was playing with them) and I get Edge then H only.. no 3g.
I still want the full original firmware and will pay for it.

H is 3G, just faster. As far as the rest of the firmware, just wait for an official release, then you can flash it for free.

Nope, the Euro firmware has the dialer, which is needed as well.
Hello, i am in situation like mattj949 - searching for original SGH-T849 rom or modem, can i get from someone pls modem or whole T849 rom?
Regards Pavel
I just got an SGH-T849 yesterday, still at stock. I was thinking of flashing Overcome 1.4.0 rom and associated kernel. Now I came across this thread with posters frantically trying to go back to stock. So should ileave mine alone? Stock works fine although I noticed some wifi-quirks.
Thanks for your insights.

[Q] Which SBF to use for Singapore Milestone??

Hello,
I own a Motorola Milestone which I purchased from Starhub Singapore. I am currently using this phone in Bangladesh.
Now, I would like to root my phone to install CM 7, and I understand that I need to flash a vulnerable recovery. But I could not find a singapore SBF. Now my question is, which SBF should I use? would it be okay if I used the UK retail one (Bangladesh uses the UK basebands, 900 and 1800)??
Thanks
Rafi

There are no region specific versions for CM7. Use the latest CM7 release and that should work. If you have baseband issues you can change it using AOR. If you are looking for 2.2.1, check for SBF's at http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone#section221
(note that service versions won't wipe your system while non-service ones will).
Sorry, I think my question wasn't clear.
My milestone doesnt have hard root yet. So i need to root the phone to install ROMs. Now before rooting, I need to flash an SBF using RSD lite, since I am still on 2.1. Now my question is, would there be any problem if I flashed the UK retail SBF, instead of the Singapore SBF??

Best option would be to install got 2.2.1. That way you need not install VR and can flash CM7 directly.

Ok, so what is got 2.2.1? and what are the steps for installing it? can i install it without rooting my phone?
And if i want to get hard root, which steps should I follow?
I am a noob here, so any help is much appreciated.
Thnk u
The first 2.2.1 that was released by the GOT team. You can download it from the link below.
http://groupoften.wordpress.com/2010/10/16/g-o-t-2-2-1-released/
Then run openrecovery and root your phone and then flash CM7. You should use androidiani openrecovery.

Hey, im from UK and no carrier as i bought the tab unlcoked, so its not tied to any carrier.
I checked those threads and a few others but i dont know which firmware is for the UK unlocked version, can you help?
Can anyone help?
Visit the overcome website. READ THE INSTALLATION GUIDE THEN READ IT AGAIN. First part of ut tells you how to restock your tab. You can use it as a pointer to flash stock ROM you desire.
Thanks for the reply bro, do you know where i can get the stock 2.2 uk unlocked firmware from?
Or can i use the stock gingerbread firmware on the overcome site and it will work ok with that firmware?
Searching for stock rom? Maybe below link can direct you the the right place.
