Trying to restore to stock after installing Fission.

[Aversion]

I made a back up when I installed Fission but cant find it when I go into recovery?

What is it called? All I have is 4 options full of numbers..

Take a minute to actually look at the numbers...it represents the date and time the backup was made. You'll want to pick the most recent date "2011-01-17," for example. Then confirm and you'll be set to go.

Also, the 4 digits after the date are the time the backup was made, in 24hr format.

they are all the same date.

They all seem to 'restore' but not to the default rom? They all still say Fission 2.4


What do I do to get the default rom back? I know I made a back up before going to Fission.

Hmm. You could always just SBF. That's what I do, because between google and appbrain, I don't lose any apps or contacts, and I don't really give a damn about the rest of my data. That way I feel assured of a clean install every time. Just the OCD nerd in me, though. I never really used the nandroid backups, so I can't be much help, sorry.

Can you give me a link or steps how to SDF back to stock?

Edit:

I found this while searching google:

http://androidforums.com/droid-x-all-things-root/223612-how-do-sdf.html

It says Droid-X but do the same steps apply?

Here is a link with the directions, and a link to download the proper sbf file for a droid 2 global. The only problem is their download link for RSD Lite 4.9 is broken, because it got pulled. If you google RSD Lite 4.9 download, there are plenty of other places to get it from. Note: You MUST have RSD Lite 4.9, none of the previous versions work with the D2G. Also, you need the latest drivers, available from motorola's website.

For some reason the 'start' button on the RSD Lite is grey'd out. What do I do?

Is your phone in PC mode? Does RSD Lite show your phone as connected in the white box at the bottom of the window? Did you select your SBF file in the directory at the top left?

PC Mode: Yes
RSD lite shows phone: yes - but some details seem odd...
SBF is in the directory at top.

Weird. Usually when I do this (I've done it 7 or 8 times, now), the start button greys out for a second while it recognizes the phone, then becomes usable again. You downloaded the drivers from Motorola, right?

 

[Aversion]

Yes. I have tried reinstalling them too. No help.
