Its possible to use a clean nandroid to go to GB, i did for each leak i tested. But all these problems seem to require SBF.

correct, but those are few and far between, even though it is highly recommended

I have one, which is how I know.

i tried a clean nandroid of .340 and when i flashed gb, i bootlooped. so i dont know what to tell you on that, it may work differently for you, i would try and see what happens

Which GB did you flash? I did the .340 to .588 to .595 route. (and then to .596)

Full SBF worked without a hitch.
Back up and running Froyo and didn't lose a thing.
Downloading GB OTA now, will report back either way it turns out.

Thanks all!!!

I am having the same problem but I am pretty worthless about this stuff... I should have never rooted my phone. Anyway I thought I had done everything to return it to stock and it was working without a hitch for over a month, I go to do the update and I am stuck on the bootloader screen.

How do I do sbf at this point? I literally have no idea what to do. I am willing to paypal some money to whoever helps, I am clueless with this.

I have a macbook by the way.

Thanks

VoidedSaint · Jun 1, 2011
