==================

If you have Antivirus or such program running, it will flag this as an exploit, becuase it is.

However, its meant for the android OS.

Steps

=====

1. Flash 2.4.330 using RSD

http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/04/how-to-unroot-the-motorola-droid/

2. Plugin USB stick that the iso was installed on, and boot using option 'slitaz'

plug in the usb cable to the phone and to the computer booting the linux image.

Press 1 (sbf option) to flash 4.5.629.

If it works, it will unzip the files, and start uploading them to the phone. The phone will read

'SW Update'

'In progress...'

3. The phone should have now restarted and have presented you with with the regular home screen.

4. Shutdown the phone. Enter recovery, by

A. holding X key on the key pad AND the power button.

B. Release when the little droid logo or the triange shape shows.

C. press both volume keys

D. scroll down to 'Wipe data/factory reset' using the volume keys to move up and down. Select the option using the power button.

E. Reboot system

5. The phone should now be completely wiped clean, as if starting fresh

6. I personally had the phone ask to have it activated with VZ. To get around this (needed to continue), you need to touch (not glide) the 4 corners of the screen starting in the top left corner going clockwise.

bhigham - "when you touch the 4 corners, it is not the four corners of the screen, but the 4 corners of the activation window, i.e. below the top bar, and above the emergency dial buttons."

7. Go to settings > applications > development > select USB debugging

Then pull down the menu frop the top > select USB connection > change to 'charge only mode. '

8. Boot up the image on USB stick (same as step 2), have it sit at the menu selection prompt.

8. Take your android phone, reboot into bootloader using steps in the link under step 1 of this write up. One this is done, plug it into the pc, and select option 2 - root.

9. Then follow steps under

'Gaining Root Access'

and

'Installing the Droid 2 Global Recovery Bootstrap with the ClockworkMod Recovery'

10. Tranfer the TBH_Band_Unlock_v2.0.zip to the sdcard somewhere.
