my FIL came in town this weekend, so i upgraded his D2 to the latest gingerbread and got everything squared away. he calls me tonight and says he messed a bunch of his screens up.
it's honestly easier to walk him through restoring his nandroid backup, then it is trying to walk him through fixing all his screens and icons back.

so i had him restore the backup i made just before he left.
and when he did, everything FC's over and over
so i had him go back in, and format sys/data/cache/delvick cache and then restore.

still FC hell

back to recovery, blow everything away, install the d2 deodexed pre rooted release.
STILL FC hell. everything is FC over and over.

so why is everything Force closing? why did the nandroid backup not restore to the state in which i backed it up?

I know i'll probably have to SBF his phone, but he lives over 5 hours away.
so if i can figure out another way to fix this, i would prefer that.

i'm really annoyed that the nandroid backup didn't restore to the last state in which i backed i up.

Did you backup after you installed GB or Before... If the backup was made of any OS other than GB you will have issues because you can not go backwards on OS without SBF.
