Amazon android application of the day: random mahjong pro.

Jellyrolls · 06-09-2011, 02:04 PM

How hard is it for me to completely go back to stock? I would like to keep me contacts and all that, but can I go back to stock... like no Gingerbread..just the stock os.

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 02:07 PM

Stock is now Gingerbread officially but yeah you can go back to stock GB or Droto if you want. But you'll lose all your apps/settings/etc unless you back them up first. Then you'd have to root your stock install in order to restore it all.

Contacts are in the cloud so they are always backed up.

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 02:10 PM

Oh and to do it, you just sbf that bish using the .340 or .596 sbf depending on if you want Froyo or GB. You'll end up with stock, unrooted.

Jellyrolls · 06-09-2011, 02:14 PM

If I don't need all my apps and don't want to back up, how to i go to stock

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 03:24 PM

just SBF it using RSD Lite. Do you want to go back to Froyo or to the official Gingerbread?

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 04:19 PM

one person called WP7 superior.

motorola photon 4g on sprint is supposed to be unlocked

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 07:43 PM

Maybe that will lead to more Motos being unlocked

cuz not switching carriers

MikeH · 06-09-2011, 07:48 PM

I dont see them locking some and not others. Will probably still need an SBF to return to stock tho.

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 07:49 PM

Yeah I'm sure if they do end up doing this on all phones that it will be an "agree to all these terms, warranty gfys, etc and you can unlock" and that's fine by me

Especially since SBF = back to stock and warranty

MikeH · 06-09-2011, 07:50 PM

oh and androidandme on twatter be legit, asked a couple questions and got answers right away.

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 07:52 PM

MikeH · 06-09-2011, 07:53 PM

i could see moto also trying to figure out a way to where sbf's only work on engineering phones tho.

**stonehenge** · 06-09-2011, 07:54 PM

I imagine that would make refurbing phones hell for them, who knows though.
