Downgrade to 902 - No app or data loss

[hAHAha Halo]

I think I can figure out the flashing on my own.. But I'm still stuck with this one problem: My phone doesn't show up at all in RSD lite. YES, I DO HAVE THE DRIVERS.

You might need to uninstall the drivers reboot your PC reinstall the drivers and reboot our pc again.

Remove the Battery and put it back and then hold volume up and power button then it should be in boot menu...then connect to the pc see if it's detected if detected good to go.. if not re-install drivers and RSD Lite...

So I tried SafeStrap 2.0 and could not get Eclipse 2.0 to install correctly. So I uninstalled SafeStrap and installed Eclipse BootStrap and then tried installing Eclipse again, but now my phone is bricked. I'm going to set it back to 902 and upgrade to 905. Could you provide me with instructions on how you have your phone setup with both ICS and Eclipse.

Thank you

I don't. eclipse bootstrap != eclipse rom.

have you try anything? you have not posted what you have done so far...if you are not going to tell us what is working or you
are close to fixing your problem.. we cannot not keep guessing what to do next to help you. i am going on stream to play my game

Those who've posted links to updated versions of my zip file, please PM me all the links you have so I can update the OP. When I get a couple minutes I have an idea for the script, as well, that I think might improve things quite a bit for people and makes it even EASIER to run if you can believe that. But my battery didn't charge on the way home so it's dead and I can't do much at the moment with the phone. Anyway, links are appreciated and will get put in the OP now that I'm back. I absolutely appreciate what you guys did in this thread while I was gone so a BIG thank you! :hail:

Samuri, the only thing I would suggest is to add a couple CR or breaks in the block of text where it tells you to flash the various files. The whole thing pops up on the screen very quickly and is a bit surprising. Maybe ask for a keypress to continue after each one, so it's more step-by-step like the rest of the script? Just a thought.

 

[muffins7497]

no problem.. you help me out before and your method is way better the reinstalling everything. yes, i do have
Titanium backup but too lazy to read about it.
thanks again

This app didn't work for me. Not enough delay with the rebooting and waiting to push the files. So it would try to push before the phone was in flash mode and would fail.

@Underwater Mike

Bah, that's not all that important IMO. What'd be better is if we can find a way to boot into recovery after the last moto-fastboot flash. It's possible but it's riskier than having people shut off their phone and going directly into recovery. I rewrote my local copy and am just waiting for one of my batteries to get beyond a 50% charge so I can actually flash 232. The way my local copy works now is that after the last image flashes, I do a moto-fastboot reboot and immediately set adb wait-for-device. As soon as the phone boots enough for adb to recognize it, I reboot it into recovery. In theory this should work without messing with the data, but, I haven't tested it to be sure. It's definitely riskier than putting yourself into recovery without booting the phone at all.

TiBU can be dangerous going from GB to ICS. You can do most of the apps and data, but some that were updated for ICS might have issues and the system data is definitely not something to restore in ICS. I like this method because it runs that Android update script at the first boot in ICS.

You can easily fix that by adding a pause after the adb reboot bootloader line.

EDIT: Or add this:

PING 127.0.0.1 -n 10 > NUL

which will give a 10 second delay.

 

[SamuriHL]

For those having issues with flash errors, try modifying the following lines in the script to do this:

adb reboot bootloader
PING 127.0.0.1 -n 10 > NUL
moto-fastboot flash mbm allow-mbmloader-flashing-mbm.bin
moto-fastboot reboot-bootloader
PING 127.0.0.1 -n 10 > NUL
moto-fastboot flash mbmloader mbmloader.bin
moto-fastboot flash mbm mbm.bin
moto-fastboot reboot-bootloader
PING 127.0.0.1 -n 10 > NUL
moto-fastboot flash cdt.bin cdt.bin

I'm about to install 232 now myself.
