This is the last full SBF official for the Droid 2 Global. This will put you back to the last stock OTA without having to do any other updates later. Flash with RSD Lite.

As with any such file posted on a forum site, use at your own risk, but I know that is the official VZW SBF file

Step 1: Boot into the bootloader, you do this by powering on and holding power on + volume up + volume down. You should see a black screen with text that says battery: OK

Step 2: Plug is your usb cord into the computer you loaded the rsdlite file on

Step 3: Click on your rsdlite program. You need to run as an administrator, to do that hold shift key and right click on the rsdlite program (do that as you are about to open the program).

Step 4: Next to the file name text box in the rsdlite program are three little dots. Click on those dots and find the file Click on that file and then click start. Make sure you have a strong battery before flashing this is the one time you need to ensure your battery is ok to get through the process, because the program erases everything and re-flashes your phone.

Step 5: Wait for it to get to 100% and reboot your phone to the motorola "M" symbol first then unplug your device. While at the M take off the battery cover out and remove your battery. Wait for about 3 seconds and then reinstall your battery. Power on and hold the physical X key until you get to the triangle and !.

Step 6: on your physical keyboard push the search button to get into the recovery mode. From there you are going to wipe data/factory reset. AFter that is complete click reboot.

Thanks to our friend toto221 for this file.

This looks very convenient compared to the previous annoying method of SBFing to Froyo and OTA updating multiple times.

This should make it much easier to jump between ROMs if an SBF is needed.

Anyone try it yet?

Nice one, I usually just sbf to .330 and use the update zip to get to .608. This will be so much easier

should not have to activate, your carrier should already know your phone, when it connects to the network

maybe it wasn't connecting to network, Verizon or other?

edit: if you got to activation you were connected, but should not have to activate

could try rebooting

You dont have to re-activate, you just need to follow the promt that call the verizon number so they can reconfigure...

While at the M take off the battery cover out and remove your battery. Wait for about 3 seconds and then reinstall your battery. Power on and hold the physical X key until you get to the triangle and !.
