i have one more question! when i unroot will i be abe to recieve future updates via OTA?
also which drivers specifically. like the motoconnect and pc driver 1 and 2?
I followed the following directs on how to revert your Droid:
Instructions:
1. Download all of the files above including the 32-bit OR 64-bit Motorola USB Drivers.
2. Install RSDLite AND the 32-bit or 64-bit Motorola USB Drivers (Depends on your system most will need 32-bit some will need 64-bit)
3. Connect your phone to USB and turn it off then turn it back on, while your phone is booting hold up on the DPAD. (Some users have said it is easier to hold the volume down button and camera button instead.)
4. Run RSD Lite 4.6 as Administrator (For all you Vista and 7 folks out there. If you are using XP you may not need to run as Administrator)
5. Click the ... next to the filename box and browse to where you saved the .sbf file and double click the .sbf file.
6. Hit start and below it should give you completion progress and all of that.
7. Once your phone is done being flashed (It may take a while so don't unplug it) it will reboot and you will be back at stock no root.
8. Done
At first I wasn't able to run RSD as administrator. I had to go into properties and check the box for it (no menu item when right-clicked). However, once I select the .sbf file I cannot hit start. It is faded out. I'm lost as to how continue. Please help or direct me to something that can.
I downloaded the 2.1 .sbf and now the program works. It's flashing now. I'll post the results after.
The flashing was a success. I then loaded the newest OTA update to the phone. Now I cannot root my phone using Easy Root or Universal Androot. Is this due to the newest update?

First thanks for all your help, I'm rooted now and LOVEING IT. I mean seriously, just rooting increased my quadrant score and cleaned up a lot of lag in my Launcherpro. Now I just have one question, how do I remove the bloatwear!!?? I looked in the settings>applications, no dice. I saw that someone said you can delete them with TiBU but I didn't see it (or maybe it's an option only for paid version). Help!!
BTW says you don't have a Droid anymore, What did you get and why!?
Thanks to CRPercodani and UBRocked for originally putting this thread together. And thanks to Rootyourdroid.info even though the site is gone it provided a wealth of information.
What you need to know first:
Benefits of Rooting
Okay, so you know
Does this work for the fascinate?
I have a rooted motorola atrix and now the only way to get online is through wifi. Anyway to fix this? thank you
hey guys, what a great post, thank you to OP. it's really nice to see that people are willing to take so much time out just to help others.
i am trying to revert from android 2.2.2 back to 2.2.1. the update causes alot of lag on my phone, and has screwed up a few of my games/apps, and my main goal is to revert the update. i have an LG Optimus S (LS670) and it's my first android phone. so, i got to step 3 before realizing that this is the motorola droid forum. how depressing. so i figured it can't hurt to ask, just to make sure..... is this guide indeed only for motorola? i'm obviously somewhat new to doing extra add-ons and such to my phone. i always thought i was relatively cell-savvy until i started trying to research android and saw all these forums about rooting, and XDA and all that good stuff. i have been looking all over the net on how to revert for weeks. it seems as though it's harder to find instructions because my phone is unrooted. i didn't see any posts concerning reverting, such as this one, in the LG Optimus S forum. everytime i find something that looks like it might help me, it either a. seems to be for anything but the LS670, or b. scares me away. i know you guys aren't about people posting about their phones in the wrong forum, but i didn't know where else to go, and out of all the sites/posts i've seen regarding reverting, this is the most legit sounding one yet, and i've seen a buttload. if anyone is willing to give me any kind of help i'd really appreciate it.. even if you could just steer me in the right direction i'd be forever indebted to youthanks in advance guys. and just know that there's tons of people like myself out there that could only wish to have half of the knowledge about technology/cell phones in general that some of you have. it never ceases to amaze me that people even know how to perform these tasks. thanks again

Texts and app data yes. Your pics should be on your sdcard so no worries there. MyBackupPro will save texts, call logs, and app data, but if you're unrooted, I don't know if it will restore them all, definitely not app data. Besides, I wouldn't backup/restore app data ever anyways. Usually causes too many problems.If i were to unroot back to 2.2.2, would I lose all of my data (texts, pictures, app data, etc.)? If so, what would be the easiest way to keep them safe while still unrooting? Thanks!
