Please note that you have to use the correct image for each version of RPi, you can't use the RPI-B image on RPi 2 neither the RPI2 image on RPI-B. This is the first report of the rainbow screen with official images and as this means that something is wrong with the firmware or loader, I suspect that you are using the wrong image on your RPi. At this moment the RPi 2 support is only for 11, the 10.x support shouldn't happen soon as it depends on the MFC of many changes from different developers, which shouldn't happen before the 10.2 release.
