Bootloop when installing CM7 GB

[skytbest]

So I updated to the official moto GB on my droid 2 and rooted it using the Droid 3 root method. I downloaded the latest nightly of CM7GB and tried installing it through bootstrap recovery. Should I wipe cache, and do a data wipe/factory reset? Or will the factory reset revert me back to froyo? I also tried installing through Clockwork rom manager and I wiped data/ cache and dalvik cache but it errored out in bootstrap and wrote something to the log file (don't have it write now since I'm currently SBFing). Anyone know what I'm doing wrong or how I can fix this?

Thanks!

I also am in a bootloop. getting ready to sbf yet again. Sbf'ed back to froyo, did the ota gb. rooted, installed d2 bootstrap, wiped cache/davlik, installed new cm7bg and gapps. and proceeded to bootloop. Good luck getting yours to work.

*sigh* So you got it loaded up into CM7GB long enough to install gapps? I can't even boot into it

Wipe data/factory reset,cache, and dalvik before installing CM7 after you install the OTA. Should solve your problems.

CM7GB-D2

Yeah, realized I forgot to wipe data. Doing that now. Hopefully it works. Sky, you have to install gapps the same time you install cm7gb.

edit: got it working. time to start playing with jasons mod.

Can you not install them through the rom manager once you boot into CM7?

Have never had luck with that.

Just get the gapps zip and flash it after you flash CM7. Before you flash anything wipe data, cache and make sure to go to the advanced menu in recovery and wipe dalvik. Should have no trouble after this. BTW we have a whole thread dedicated to this version of the ROM, so you're better off posting questions there. You will get a much faster answer.

Thanks guys, got it to work properly now. Just flashed latest gapps zip through clockwork recovery. I'll use that thread from now on. Thanks a bunch!

wrong thread.

Pretty sure he knows, since he posted 3.5 hours before you picked up on it. =)
