Official DROID 2 Global .629 SBF Made Available, Will Unbrick Your Device – Droid Life
Thankfully, developers now have their hands on the official SBF and have tweaked it so that you can unbrick your devices and even root the phone through a pretty simple set of instructions.
Obviously, we can't use this on the Droid X, but maybe something similar can be done for us?

Of course, after looking at the process, it looks like the DX 621 root method is simpler :rofl:
[How-to] [SBF] unbricking & root D2g 629 - Droid 2 / R2D2 / Milestone 2 / Droid 2 Global - RootzWiki
1.flash offical 608 sbf(dont worry about downgrade,it will unbrick after the next step)
2.flash this repacked 629 sbf(it will flash 629 BL=2 signed boot,recovery,cdt)
3.reboot to recovery,wipe data&cache(Not required if you have important data in it,but if you stuck at bootanimation loop then you have to wipe it)
4.use superoneclick to grant root access(or any zergrush script)
5.install otarootkeeper(can be found in play store,it's free),backup su,then unroot
6.reboot to recovery,reapply 629 OTA update.zip,reboot.(thanks silver6054 for the ota zip link)
7.open otarootkeeper,restore su
 
Everything worked and my phone boots up fine. But now it keeps going in and out of Airplane Mode every 3 seconds? Why is it doing that?
I have don't want to factory reset and lose my newfound root. :)
Help please. :(

I'm using a Droid 2 Global
