Ok what? … it shouldn't matter what version your using if you use this sbf and rsd it should just flash back to whateva version that the sbf is … I've done it with my OG Droid plenty of times.

Haha I love not updating, still on 2.2.20 running a rom Anyone who doesn't want to update and has a D2 and keeps getting the message that you can install, remove FOTA.apk from /system/app. That is Firmware Over The Air.apk so if it is deleted your phone will not know when their is an OTA. If you want to keep it just rename it to FOTA.bak so it is still there but not usable. Good little tip for you all

you will need to wait for the sbf to be released if you mess the phone up otherwise a trip to big red may be the only choice

Ok ill break it down for u not so tech savy people. And in advance exscuse the caps I am only showing seriousness. If you received the update 2.3.20 DO NOT use the current SBF. The reason for this is that there are two diff firmwares on the D2. There is android which is 2.2 and then there is the verizon blur firmware 2.3.20. The SBF is ment to go on with 2.2.20, or whatever it was I never paid any attention to it before. The SBF was created for Verizon to be able to reset the phone ALL THE WAY, system and all, which a normal wipe does not do. I myself updated and can say rooting is fine. BUT if you screw it up at this time and date, until they get the new SBF you are s**t up a creek without a paddle. I unrooted did the update and rerooted with no issues at all.
