 Seriously? AFAIK, a factory reset should get you back to exactly how you
 originally got your phone for the very first time. If that doesn't work,
 you've got serious problems. No idea what else to tell you.

Once you flash with new firmware you can revert only by flashing
back the old one. The reset restores firmware status but of
currently flashed version.

devdroid,

I just checked that site for last Droid update and was able to find
2.1 in there (Droid: A855). It is a .rar file though. Could you help
me with the install instructions? what about the filename? Does it hav
to be update.zip?

You have to flash your device with what in that rar. There's couple
of guides on the web so just google for it. Or just follow this one:

http://wfmh.org.pl/carlos/blog/2010/04/07/how-to-update-motorola-milestone-to-android-2-1/

to get the picture. Procedure shall be simmilar even you got different
device.

AFAIK factory reset goes to a clean install of your current version.

Take a look into http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/forum/13-motorola-droid/ maybe
it's a better place to ask.

http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/forum/13-motorola-droid/I suppose it could be
done, but I don't know exactly how (as I don't know the method you used to
update your Droid and also I don't have one).
