Im trying to change the rom because the 2.2.1 keeps rebooting at times. i tried using the revoluntionary to make it S-off . but it failed , what am i suppose to do and what process to take ?

Fastboot oem relock

 

[raven2k7]

how do u do a fast boot oem ? and then after i do that what do i do next ?

 

[raven2k7]

or is there a way to upgrade from 2.2.1 without having to relock etc? cause i just wanna get back the problem of the phone auto rebooting sometimes

 

[Jizzylax]

Have you tried just doing a factory reset?

You would do this with adb, then revolutionary will grant you s-off

 

[raven2k7]

Here's the # 101 guide to adb (Android Debug Bridge) - from the Android developers linked site -

http://developer.android.com/tools/help/adb.html

The Wiki section here at XDA also has lots of useful, helpful & background info - including terms & FAQ ...

You need recovery. For saving your stock rom then you can flash away

ok did that. i loaded the virtuos rom , and it looks nice , only one problem. ive been having this problem even with the verizon rom. whenever the screen timeout activates where the screen goes dark , the phone just reboots itself. the same happens if i press the button at the top to turn the screen off.. the phone reboots. why is that? as long as i change the setting to * never turn off screen * . it never reboots

I would either try a different rom or do a full wipe of data, cache, and and dalvik cache and try again

ok seems like the CM9 rooms work the best on my phone. i dont get any rebooting. only problem with gsm signal not working sometimes. i saw a rom thats called CM9 SELFKANG RAZR GSM . would that work on the incredible 2 ? then i can install the gsm patch

NO!! Only use roms that are specifically made for your phone.
Do otherwise will give you an expensive paperweight.

lol thanks for warning me. but so far only the cm9 works good for me with no rebooting. but seems that the gsm signal on it only works for so long. thats my problem. any other roms u recommend to me?

If you didn't flash the latest radio after rooting that's why your phone is rebooting, flash it then will be able to run sense roms
