I had everything working fine on cm7, then someone on my account changed something and had no data. did SBF. now i get bootloop everytime i try to sbf.
Same thing happended to me
Ok so you probably did do full reset before sbf
all you have to do is go into recovery mode(you should get a triangle with a ! in it and an android icon) and press both volume buttons at the same time and a menu will come up chose factory reset

hi,
after my gsm problem
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1892837
... i decided to flash a new sbf, i had 198_6 before i did the pudding and rooting and all..
so now i have tried 198_7 .
and during the posses , the rsd lite wrote "please boot up the phone menualy" , then i pull and insert the battery (because the phone was on the m logo) and boot up.
the phone is now is a boot loop.
i can still access the rsd, but what to do? cause i tried the sbf again and same result
You probably missed one very important thing!
It's called - Wipe Data/Factory Reset
Hi,
Its a easy one.
Boot into Android Recovery Mode.
Press Vol Down + Power Button and then scroll to Android Recovery
Once you're in recovery mode you will see Android Logo.
At that point Press the Vol Down + Vol Up button togather.
You will get menu thing.
Do Wipe Data / Factory Reset.
Once its done. Reboot System and that should fix it.
Hope it helps.
Thanks.
i don't think that when flashing sbf that wipes everything rewire Wipe Data/Factory Reset from cmw recovery....
but lets say that it does...
what am i doing now ? the cmw recovery is gone, as well as the unlock .
any suggestions?

Hi,
Just root your phone using the OCR file I have attached. Its pretty simple.
Just extract the files somewhere on your HDD in a folder. Then run root.bat file. Be sure that phone in is Debug Mode.
After you have rooted. Install app. like Root Explorer etc.
Once Root Explorer or similar app in installed goto /system/apps
Delete sprintconnmoplugin.apk and sprintconnmoplugin.obex
Thats it. Now restart your phone and you're done.
Thanks.
thanks mate.. i did it..
but i still getting any signal..
and yesterday everything was just fine.. i had cm7 and was happy..
maybe flashing cm7 will work it out? (i don't think so)

Which country you are in and what connection type you have ? GSM or CDMA ?
Have you tried going into Settings > Wireless & Networks > Mobile Networks > Network Mode ???
Select the appropirate type of network you have. If you're on GSM then select: Any GSM/UMTS
Thanks.

even tried another sim, from a different provider.
when im searching networks i can see my network , but when i'm signing in i get the "!" mark above that the network is unavalable

Did you download the proper stock SBF or some other ?? The stock always works for me no matter from which ROM i am coming back. I think most probably its related to the settings or the SBF you rsd'ed.
Thanks.

Hi,
Its correct. Are you sure that you deleted the 2 files I told you to delete ?
Also use Root Uninstaller app from market to remove sprint apps. maybe they are causing the conflict.
You can go here to see which apps. you can safely remove:

Hello,
I have rooted my device and then downloaded CWM and tried to install Cyanogen Mod, I have tried this before and it just rebooted with nothing happening. This time the device would not boot past the motorola logo. I took out the battery and attempted to boot but again the device got stuck at the moto logo.
Can anyone help?
I am terribly sorry if this has been asked before or sounds like a nooby question, desktops and laptops are more my thing, don't know as much about mobile devices. Also there are not many helpful threads on the internet as apparently this is an underrated phone :/
Thanks for any help
The Motoluxe page suggested I do this
1. Power up the phone by pressing the VOL UP + VOL DOWN KEYtogether + PWR KEY
2. The device will start up with Motorola logo and power up to a little Androidman logo with Exclamation mark
3. Tap the HOME soft key at the bottom of the device (In between the MENU andthe RETURN soft keys)
4. The device will display BLUE Text on a Black background
5. Press the VOL DOWN key till the Wipe data / factory reset is selected andpress the PWR key to confirm the selection
6. Use the VOL DOWN key again to select YES - delete all user data and pressthe PWR key to CONFIRM
7. The device will then start performing the Factory Data Reset
8. Once the Formatting is complete , press the PWR key to confirm a REBOOT
9. The message rebooting is displayed on the phone
10. The device will reboot and start the normal power up sequence
Which does not actually work

1st thing, cyanogenmod has an inbuilt recovery. After installing cm u SHOULD NOT install any other recoveries. For now I believe u r soft bricked. U ll need to fxz back to stock to come out of it.!

Hi guys,
I forgot the pin-code to my Galaxy S2, not to the sim, to the phone.
I can't go into recovery mode or download mode, due to a broken home-button.
Is there any way I can like hack the pin, or reset the phone without having to use my home button?
Maybe by using my pc or something?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Man I thought it was impossible to get into download mode but you got me there!
Unfortunately I do not see the "Clear Storage" option.
The volume down button gets me into a reboot.
Volume up gets me to downloading.
Is there any way I can get into recovery? Or download something to the phone that resets it?
And eh, multitasking, that is kind of hard with no home button.
The back button gets some more use since the home button has died haha

If you want to get yourself into recovery mode try something simpler
A cwm manager app
It has the option boot into recovery

Problem is, I cannot acces my phone so I can't install apps
I'm thinking about flashing another rom, only I can't wipe cache and factory reset before doing that.
What are the risks of that? And is there a big chance of this going wrong?

Mate, if you can enter download mode then use odin to flash
I am not sure you can enter recovery mode without home button though you can with a jig
But haven't tried it
Search xda it if you have a jig

Thanks, flashing right now.
Had flashed a few hours ago, but still got asked for the pin.
Though then I had to register the phone (name, language, that stuff) and after that I was in the phone, and did not have to enter the pin.
Doing that again right now, hoping to get to settings and then get to factory reset
Thanks for your help so far.
Then another question popped up:
To get another kernel I need recovery mode right?
And to get rooted I need a rooted kernel?
So can I root my device without home button and without recovery menu?

Reset?
ANyone know how to do a factory reset? I go into Setting under back up and reset and perform the process and the phone just shuts down and nothing appears to happen.
Method 2: I also powered off and the power on holding vol up and home and the screen just goes black. I believe that I am supposed to see the stock recovery, correct? However, I just see black. Anyone else?
ANy Ideas?

Found this is the CF-Auto Root thread posted by another member and it worked:
FYI for everyone wanting to do a reset or something. The recovery is still there, we just can't view it correctly.
The steps to do a reset:
Volume down - 4 times
Power Button
Volume down - 7 times
Power Button
Then wait 30 seconds or so and hit the power button again to reboot.
