[Q] Back to Stock Pro

---

Hey guys I'm new to the site and have some knowledge regarding Android and a little about the rooting process however I am still not officially rooted.

I just brought a Motorola Droid Pro off eBay and it came with Clockwork mod Recovery I really want to get rid of it because every time I re-boot the phone it pops up. I think that means that my pro is rooted and I have used it to wipe the phone and wipe the cache hoping to also get rid of the recovery however it is still there. Is there a way to get rid of it and go back to actual stock android with the new pro update that was released a couple months ago? Thanks so much I don't really know where else to go with these questions and hoping to illicit some kind of response from this site. Thanks so much.

1. Locate the thread with the SBF files "bricked your droid pro, SBF files" or something like that.
2. Download the SBF file for the droid pro. MAKE SURE ITS THE DROID PRO SBF.
3. Aquire RSD lite, it may be in that thread as well, otherwise find it on the internet
4. Using RSD lite, write the SBF file to the phone.

That'll set it back to factory spec, including unroot and bootloader... it'll be a few software updates back, so just manually set it to look for updates.

Thanksfor the quick reply I saw something like this somewhere while googling... I'm assuming RSD lit is pretty easy to navigate then I'm just using it to write the SBF file (I'm assuming SBF is like original factory update file) onto the SD card? Will doing this also rid of Clockwork mod recovery? Thanks again dude.

SBF is basically a image of the phone's software. Someone pulls it off a factory fresh phone and distributes it (or, it gets pirated direct from the source)

You're not writing it to the card, you're writing it to the phone.
When you open RSD Lite, you should see the phone connected. Also, theres a button that says "..." Click that button, choose the sbf file, and hit start... wait for it to finish, then after it resets the phone and says "please manually restart the phone" you can unplug and end the program.

This will reset the phone to just like it came off the factory floor. Stock recovery, OS, bootloader, etc.

Thanks dude figured it out yesterday was a little scared but did it thanks so much again.
