soo i was wondering if theres a methood on how to get back to stock on the motorola droid? i put a gingerbread rom on it and its terrible, i would like to fully unroot it back to the way it was.
You'll need RSD Lite and a fitting .sbf file to flash your phone back to stock.
Here's a tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696845&highlight=rsd
It's for Milestone (non-US version of Droid), but the process should be identical.
You'll need to find the .sbf file yourself.
Google for "Droid sbf <your provider> <android version>" and you should find it.

I have a friend who didn't get the OTA update to 2.2. They don't want any custom ROM's or to be rooted, they just want their update. Can I just flash FRG01B with RSD Lite without rooting the phone or having to put SPRecovery on it? I think this should be super simple but I've never actually done anyting like this to a non-rooted phone.

Thanks good link.
Is there a way to save all the apps for them before I update their phone to 2.2 or will they just have to download them again?
The update will not delete anything on your phone.

ne1 got a link for the files?
I recently tried to use MetaMorph on my phone it went through then it rebooted and now its stuck at the motorola logo I want to reflash back to stock but I dont know what Sbf file to use please help me im in trouble right now.
did you not create a nandroid backup prior to applying a metamorph theme?
should always do that.
as for what .sbf, just flash a new rom, i doubt you need to flash a .sbf
but even if you do have to, just flash any .sbf, then root, recovery, flash rom, just make sure you got the right baseband
Ok, So I have successfully rooted my D3 and all went fine. I installed the installed the Steel Droid Rom but later found out that I can no longer access my home email account using this ROM for some reason and stupid me didnt create a nandroid backup before installing the Steel Droid. I know, stupid. So now I want to SBF my phone and start over. However, I can find a working copy of RSD Lite. Can someone point me to a website that would have it or provide a working link for it? Also, I am trying to use the following threat:
[Recovery] RSD v5.5.0 and 5.5.184 (aka 5.6.890) fastboot partitions/flashable zip: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1255198
There are 3 separate sections in the OP:
Flashable File, Moto-Fast Boot and RSD Lite
In addition to needing a working copy of RSD Lite 5.5 I also dont really understand the difference in the Flashable File and Moto-Fast Boot? Will I need to do both of these steps in order to SBF my phone back to stock? Or is the Moto-Fast an alternative option to using the flashable SBF file in RSD Lite?
I hate to be demanding, and would appreciate any help I could get, but if someone could please provide a step-by-step guide of the correct SBF process that would be absolutely amazing.
Thanks.
EDIT.....I FOUND A LINK TO RSD LITE 5.5....
Hi All
I need some help getting back to a state where i can just OTA Jellybean just like a normal bionic, I dont care about root or anything like that.
This is my current situation
I installed safestrap 3.11, I accidentally wiped my stock rom and attempted to install AOSP onto stock rom, obviously it did not work, so my stock rom is now dead. I did however install AOSP into rom slot 1, and its working fine. I would like to completely ditch safestrap and get my bionic to a factory stock state with factory ICS installed so i can just OTA update it to Jellybean, is this possible in my current situation? and if so, how do I do it.
I tried using a method that was advertised on droid forums, someguy saved his ICS stock rom as a restore in safestrap, I tried putting the files into the TWRP folder but when i went to restore in safestrap, it did not list any packages I could use to restore. Any help would be appreciated.
If you had stock ICS before you broke it, find obsidian's post about all things bionic and follow the link to the instructions on how to flash a stock fxz with rsdlite.
Don't try to flash ICS fxz if you had stock jb, or you will brick your phone.

I was wondering if anyone has the stock rom for my droid 4? 6.13.219.xt894.Verizon.en.us? Ever since i rooted it, I accidentally uninstalled some bloatware and now that's preventing me from updating. Even after I get the stock rom, how would i install it? Any help would be appreciated :fingers-crossed:
just download the 98.72.18.XT894.xml from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/cdma_maserati/list.php
and Use RSD Lite to flash a .XML Stock Rom (firmware)
I'd just use this and have it done automatically.
