I was installing the 2.1 ota from 2.0 when my battery died and my phone will not get passed the boot screen. IS my phone bricked or can it be fixed?
Did u try reflashing or installing 2.0 with the Droid 2.1 downgrade program. It wipes the phone completely and reinstalls 2.0.1. Just look for the 2.1 rooting tutorial and it ill explain how to reinstall 2.0.1 from bootloader if you can access that part of phone.

To further explain after checking you will need rsd lite 4.6 and the Droid 2.0.1 sbf file. There is links and a tutorial in the Droid development forum for rooting 2.0.1 and also 2.1. Use the tutorial to just reinstall 2.0.1 and it has links for rsd lite and sbf file and instructions.

Here's the tutorial instructions.
First download USB drivers. There are 32bit and 64 bit depending on computer hardware.
Download rsd lite 4.6
Download Droid 2.0.1 sbf file.
Once all are downloaded install the USB drivers on computer 32 or 64 bit depending on computer hardware. If not sure try both one will work the other will fail if not the right one.
Then install rsd lite.
Place the sbf file in a seperate or new directory. I did on my desktop and still worked so doesn't really matter
Plug USB cable into device and power off if its on. Other wise when off hold the directional up keypad button and power at same time
It should boot into bootloader.
Once in bootloader and USB plugged in start rsd lite. In the middle of rsd lite window it should show the device connected.
Click on the ... button next to search bar in rsd lite and navigate to where the sbf file is. Once found it click on it.
Once selected sbf file I forgot what button said but click update, install or flash or something like that on right side of rsd lite window.
It will take a little while but once it finishes you may get a failure. That's ok I did don't worry. Just click on the line that says failed and it will extract and finish on the phone.
Once it says sw update finished or complete. Unpluge the device and reboot it. It should reboot back into 2.0.1 and your done. Should be fixed. From that point you can root if you want.

I flashed my stock. 2.1 Milestone (rooted) preparing it for froyo. Apparently the .sbf was corrupt or wrong;
GOT_TELUS_2_2_1FULL.sbf
I am told the correct sbf is;
BL_9078_GOOD_sholes_HS_Consumer_replacer.sbf\BL_9078_umts_sholes_HS_Consumer_replacer.sbf.
- Now It’s stuck in bootloader mode
-RSD Lite seems to recognize phone but the “Start” button remains disabled, grey, it can’t be pushed (with either .sbf file.)
-I’ve loaded a fresh copy of RSD Lite v5.0 (previously had v4.7). Both behave the same; the start button is disabled.
I want to save this phone and am looking for alternative tools or methods to ultimately flash the proper .sbf…Help please!!!

The greyed out start button is an error in RSD. What you want to do is rename that really long sbf file to a one letter name such as a.sbf
If you are planning on rooting, you can flash the VR from android.doshaska.net/rootable but I would not try it until those bootloader errors get corrected. Be careful on the site I gave you, one sbf is for bootloader version 90.78, the other is for yours (90.74)
Hope that helped.

That kinda worked, I renamed it “A” and also had to put it in the root on my C; drive. The button worked.
The bad news is it wouldn’t take. I got the following error message:

(I also discovered by hunting around that I almost tried to flash the wrong ver of.sbf, 90.78 instead of 90.74. It didn’t make any difference though.) Failed.

Try using the latest version of Motorola USB drivers, your phone might not be completely recognized.
EDIT: http://androidforums.com/droid-all-...hing-process-0x7100-rsd-lite.html#post1274587
I used that to help me out when I had that error as well. It worked for me, it should for you as well.
Thanks. good read so far. Nice to know I'm not alone and there may be a way. I think the trick when I did this on my other Milestone was copying the sbf here there and everywhere. Haven't updated the latest usb drivers.
Regards, PK
Well crap,
I downloaded v.5 moto usb drivers from moto. One self installing program. RSD doesn't see the phone at all now. Tried twice. Uninstalled drivers with program "total uninstaller" (normally very good), still nothing in RSD.
Seem to recall having to manually install either HTC or moto drivers. Guess I got to hunt around and find out what the moto trick is.
crap.
Regards. PK
Finally new Moto Drivers (v5.0) installed, start button in RSD "start" button works but when pushed, RSD reads "Flash Failed"
Any help? PK
try RSD v4.7, maybe its the RSD problem.
Have you check out your system hardware manager to see if the Milestone was recognized completely?
Hi,
i got same problem 2 days ago.
at my point i just had to install a new rom.
if you get in Open Recovery try to install miui oder CM.
I got the same error when i tried to install CM7. So I installed MIUI and voila everything worked.
Thanks for the reply's!
I tried all of above and it still "failed" to flash.
I can't get into open recovery or the stock "recovery" utility (this phone was stock when this all started).
The phone shows up in "devices and printers" as "unspecified-S flash omap3430a" not as Milestone
Regards, PK
I was having a similar problem. How are you getting into the bootloader? I was using the volume button.
For whatever reason, when I got into the bootloader using the D-pad, RDS Lite found the phone.
I still can't seem to flash anything properly, but it found it.
It pretty much jumps straight to boot loader mode all by itself after powering up. No button combination takes me anywhere but the boot-loader. There's no way to get out of it either.
Thanks, pk
Stuck in boot loader milestone usb drivers
Man I've tried all of above.
The one thing someone mentioned is "is the phone was recognized by win764" . Not really, It only shows up Under "Devices & printers" as "unspecified":
S Flash OMAP3430
I have tried every Moto. USB Driver set I can find. None do anything different. I can not find any manually installable drivers.
(My working hacked milestone_eu shows up as "unspecified" ) to.
Makes me think Maybe my drivers ar screwed. How can I put them in manually without an install a pckage I wonder. Anyone had this prob?
I can't do anything with the either phone, from the computer, when tied together with USB (I.E. access sd card, portal, etc.)
Thanks PK
bump -please
Just to clarify, you have two Milestone's, one is stuck in bootloader mode, the other works. Connecting either to your computer show 'unspecified'. Is that correct?
First, the bootloader version doesn't matter, I've had 90.73, 90.74 and 90.78 on my milestone at diferent times, doesn't make any diference.
The error code you got in bootloader mode (ending in 27) means one of the signed partitions failed the signature check, probably the result of a bad flash. Reflashing usually fixes that.
Your problem sounds like a problem with your USB on your PC, either drivers or a hardware problem (most likely drivers). Fixing your pc should allow you to reflash your milestone correctly.
When connecting a Milestone in bootloader mode to RSD lite, RSD cannot extract the IMEI info etc, the display you pasted is what I would expect when connecting in bootloader mode. If you connect to RSD when the Milestone is booted up (running android), it will show the IMEI etc. All you need to check is that RSD says its connected and its usually ready to flash..
Things you can try:
1: Try flashing from another computer
2: Dual boot Ubuntu on your PC, then try flashing with sbf_flash (google it), no additional drivers are needed, should work straight out the box.
3: Uninstall EVERYTHING on your pc from motorola, then in system/device manager uninstall all the windows USB drivers, reboot and let windows reinstall the USB drivers, then try re-installing the motorola USB drivers and RSD lite.
4: Try a diferent USB cable, also try a diferent USB port. Connect directly to the computer, do not use a USB hub.
Hope this helps.
As the title says my milestone (90.78) is stuck at bootloader, I tried to flash it with RSD light but when I plug in the phone it wont recognize it
Be sure that the cable is in good conditions and the same for the usb port. Than update to last version RSD lite, if this doesnt help, try unistalling the device from device manager of Windows

I figured what the problem was, as I use windows 7 I had to run RSD in compatibility mode for xp
Try to use a newer version of RSD Lite. Newer versions are totally compatible with Windows 7.
may try this Version of RSD Lite: http://droid-world.bplaced.net/load.php?file=download/tools/RSDLite5.7.zip
for me it works perfectly on windows7, but remember to run RSD Lite as Admin on windows7

1. Just flash it with RSD lite
2. Flash lastest TWRP and flash anhy ROM.zip
P.S. If your PC can`t see phone on TWRP-MTP-mode - try to mount data on TWRP and look to drivers

SlimReaper, relax, don't freak out. You have all the tools you need, you just need to know how to use them properly.
Can you still get into TWRP? If yes, then if your phone can be detected as USB storage, how about copying a ROM zip file to it while it's connected as USB storage and then boot into TWRP and flash the ROM file that you just put on it? Otherwise you'll have to flash with your computer using RSD lite like the other guys suggested.

usb storage isn't what you are looking for

I'm trying to unbrick a Lenovo K3 Note. Mediatek USB appears in device manager on Windows PC, but SP flash can't see the phone to flash preloader. The drivers are OK, because I have already flashed similar phones on the same PC.
I have also tried on the Linux PC. which I regularly use for flashing.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
