Motorola Droid Full Solution Updated

If anyone runs this generic rom on a carrier that offers the "cdma milestone", please install alogcat from the market. If you are prompted to install an ota update for 2.2, run alogcat and save your log or email it to yourself, and then find the url on Google's servers (https://android.clients.google.com ...) and post that in the thread, or in a PM to me.

If the check for updates thing works, it is possible that anyone can use this rom on any carrier and then get the url that way. Either way, please share the results if it works.

I tried the unlocked radio sbf after flashing the verizon sbf, but i can't get it to install, this is the error it gives me after rebooting the device:
 
To flash a new sbf, slide open the keyboard and power up the droid holding down the up button on the dpad.

I'm uploading a new sbf right now, if it works, it should overwrite less than the full generic sbf, but more than the old radio only one.

EDIT: New sbf uploaded, same url as before.
 
OK I had a chance to look it over. I removed the system, boot/kernel, and recovery. If the new sbf flashes, the only thing you should notice changing is the radio.
 
whiterabbit i succesfully flashed the second sbf you prepared, however the phone does not boot anymore, it get's stuck at the motorola logo. I'll reflash Joe Texaco sbf.
 
Another thing i noticed, is that with the cellular south sbf, whenever i change a MIP profile in QPST, it gives me this error:

NV WRITE ERRORS:

NV DS MIP SS USER PROF I [0] - NV FAIL S

i think is the shared secret in profile 0 that gives the error.
 
Can anyone in here point me in the right direction to flash an EVO to cricket? I just got one for the wife and I told her I'd flash it to cricket for her, lol.
 
Did you write the shared secret during that particular instance? QPST seems to choke up writing multiple things sometimes (PRLs come to mind) Try reading, changing only the shared secret, and writing.

EDIT:

Also, there is a chance that when you tried flashing the original radio only SBF, it was fine. The BP passthrough error is most likely RSD Lite. I had it happen several times while flashing the Cellular South sbf. The fix is to place the sbf in C:\Program Files\Motorola\RSD Lite and then flash. This work around was posted in the Moto Dev forums, I'll see if I can scare up the link.
 
Thanks for testing it. I'm probably not going to try any more sbfs. Either I don't know what I'm doing, or the tool I used was broken.

Anyone with a droid they don't mind reflashing can get some sbf modifying tools and trim it down. You would want to start by removing CG39.smg, which takes off over 100MB of the file, and leaves the main android system alone. If that works, take out CG35 and CG47 to take the boot and recovery partitions out of the sbf.

It shouldn't take too long for someone with a few different sbf modifying tools and a lot of patience for flashing. I used Motorola Android Firmware Depacker by Skrilax_CZ 1.2 Alpha 3. The problem probably wasn't the program, but my inexperience in modifying sbf files.
