Hello,
I got my Defy a few weeks ago and was looking to run CM on it. But I want to be sure to be able to return to stock froyo.
I have wiped my phone and made a nandroid backup but I read in the 'CM FAQ' I'd still need a fixed sbf if I want to return my phone back to stock. I've been googling for a few hours but can't seem to understand how to create a sbf file for my phone. And the sbf I need doesn't seem to be available on the forum.
Can you guys help me or point me in the right direction? Thanks a lot
Tthe specifics are:
Code:
systemversion: Moto_version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB
Code:
Android-version: 2.2.2
Code:
Basebandversion: EPU93_U_00.59.01
Code:
Build-number: JOREM_U3_3.4.2_179-2
Can someone answer my question?
Usually you can find all sbfs at and-developersdotcom/sbf:defy

while it is U3_3.4.2_179-2, it is not called "JOREM", instead it is the "JRDNEM" version. And an USA version at that. Intresting, when searching for these words the search comes up empty. Probably filtered because it whould give to many hits, sadly I don't know what it means now... any pointers? We are certain this version will get me back to a stock motorola defy which I could bring back to the shop for repair?
Taking this in consideration I believe I need to backup my baseband, on the other hand, cm7 has a lot of them preinstalled, i suppose the uk baseband should work in Belgium considering this post. To be certain I send a pm with a backup of my baseband to Sqoerk, the translator of the "basebandswitcher".
Hi,
I also need this sbf, it would be great if someone could share it!
OK, I'll try to clarify this for you but your question is not clear.
IF you have Froyo already and it is your stock rom, you will not need a fixed sbf to keep your "downgradability" if you choose to try CM7. But careful if you decide to try the leaked GB rom or any other newer 2.2 sbf (like the nordic one recommended for CM7).
In fact, I would suggest you to try CM7 (RC1v2) over your stock Froyo first: don't bother flashing nordic sbf.
If your stock sbf is eclair or if you want to try leaked GB, then yes you will need to find a fixed sbf first.
Follow the CM7 FAQ starting at root, reboot, install sndInit v1.4.2 (and don't forget to turn off usb debugging before tje 2 reboots), wipe and factory reset (IN CUSTOM RECOVERY) and finally install cm7 and google apps from there too.
I'm sure that you will find a working baseband in CM7; no need to copy anything in this regard. But setting 'Defy Baseband Switcher' IS the first thing to do after installation. If you don't battery wont last, hot phone and bad or no signal reception...
Hello zorofroozo,
I want to start using CM 7, but before doing that I need to find the original stock rom.
I also have a Defy with same version details as the one you have.
Were you able to find/download the stock rom?
systemversion: Moto_version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB
Android-version: 2.2.2
Basebandversion: EPU93_U_00.59.01
Build-number: JOREM_U3_3.4.2_179-2
Thanks
Does anyone know another place to download this ROM, or can anyone upload it somewhere? Thanx!
Multiupload is dead and and-developers.com doesn't have it.
Here is a rom with these specifics 3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR (Western Europe Delblur)

Hi Hso3f, your link points to a deblurred Western Europe ROM, which can result in an unpleasant and expensive surprise if the Motorola repair guy looks too close at the small print. It's not the same as Blur_Version_34.179.2.MB525.Retail.GB. It looks like this SBF is totally gone from the web.
Hi Rogier,
yes my link 3.4.2-179-2 GB points to the official Benelux 2.2.2 deblurred rom (Moto_version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB), like asked in the op.

Looks like you're mixing up some ROMs. The OP did not ask for a deblurred Benelux ROM, but for the blurred GB ROM, i.e. the retail ROM for the British market.
You're linking to a ROM called JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_UCAJRDNFRYORTCOREEU_P023_A008_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf, which is meant for the other half of Europe. There are a lot of different ROMs that share the number 34.179.2. GB, COREEU, CEE, DACH, ...
"Core EU" is not "GB." The retail GB version has a completely different set of languages, and it's definitely not deblurred.
So the search for the real 4.179.2.MB525.Retail.GB with Blur isn't over yet.

Not the same rom???
You can see "Moto_Version" and not "Blur_version" if it was a blurred rom systemversion would be Blur_version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB, isn't it?
I don't know why motorola left "en.GB" in system version of it, but it's like that. So, This rom that I've linked is the Benelux, western Europe, COREEU, call it what you want, rom. I know that, i'm not mixing anything. This is the same rom i had by msu here in Belgium.

Moto_Version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.CEE is Retail Central Europe and deblurred

There are no official deblurred ROMs for the GB retail market. Motorola deblurred a bunch of ROMs for central and eastern europe, but not for the british from GB.
if it was a blurred rom systemversion would be Blur_version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB

There are plenty of official blurred Motorola ROMs that don't have the word "Blur" in the system version. Motorola not only sucks at keeping links on their site alive. Consistent naming of their ROMs is not their strong point either. And neither is providing timely Android updates or keeping their firmware up to date when they relaunch the same phone with a new battery and the word "plus" tacked on.
This is the same rom i had by msu here in Belgium.

The country in which you run MSU doesn't matter. The ROM you get from MSU is determined by the current system version of your phone, not by your location.
By the way, did you notice this discrepancy:
See here:Moto_Version_34.179.2.MB525.Retail.GB

The blue text may say "Retail.GB" but the link points to a URL that doesn't have the letters "GB" in it, and neither does the pdf on the linked page. Instead, the pdf states that the ROM is for benelux, eastern europe, greece, poland and turkey. Not for Great Britain.
The 34.179.2.MB525.Retail.GB ROM that I got from MSU has german, spanish, french, italian, dutch, and portuguese as available languages. And english of course, but so does every other Motorola ROM.
No trace of a Blur_Version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB
Official uk 2.2.2 blurred rom is, i think: Blur_Version_34.177.3.MB525.Retail.GB

Official UK 2.2.2 blurred ROM was 34.179.2 when Motorola first released it last summer. I still have the Nandroid I made after installing the official blurred Froyo update with MSU. If I could turn that Nandroid into an SBF the OP would have the ROM he's after.
34.179.2 is older than the 34.177.3 ROM, but both are official blurred GB ROMs.
Some differences between 34.177.3 Retail.GB and 34.179.2 Retail.GB:
- 179 doesn't have the extra bloatware (social messaging/networking/sharing/status, cardio trainer, amazon mp3 search) of 177;
- Swype 2.25.67.18335 in 179, Swype 2.25.67.18418 in 177;
- the boot animation pulsates in 177 but not in 179;
- the accounts app is called "accounts" in 177 but "my accounts" in 179, the 179 icon doesn't have the Motorola branding that the 177 icon has;
- the gallery in 179 doesn't have the quick upload button of the 177 gallery.
The blurred 34.179.2 Retail.GB was quickly replaced by 34.177.3, which is why the original SBF is so damn hard to find.

That you don't want to understand is moto devs have left en.GB in system version of werstern Europe deblurred rom... so in this case, en.GB doesn't necessarily mean UK with blur but also Western Europe without blur...

That's the rom that i've linked, with the system info that i've posted, from droid-developers and i have also the nandroid of it (instaled in belgium, on a phone buyed in an shop in belgium, and msu was showing me provider:benelux, just to clarify) to compare...(exactly the same, it says COREEU in the file name, but have en.GB in system version, also JRDNEM in the name, but JOREM in built number.)
So my rom is not that you're looking for... ok, but what makes you say that my rom is not that isn't what zrorofroozo looking for? en.GB in system version? All system info are the same...
Also, you have a nandroid of your rom, you have a link for a most recent official rom for your region, what do you need more?
So I repeat this Sbf has these specifics in phone info:

And it's the Western Europe deblurred rom.
The OP didn't mention "deblurred" or "western europe" anywhere in his post. There's nothing in the OP that indicates he's looking for anything other than original retail.GB.

The SBF with the ROM that I got from MSU.
A Nandroid doesn't restore the warranty of your Defy. You need to flash an official stock SBF to remove all traces of 2nd init, because 2nd init doesn't clean up properly after itself.
Flashing the most recent SBF doesn't always cut it either, because MSU doesn't always deliver the most recent ROM. If you run 179.2 MSU won't update it to 177.3, even though 177 is newer than 179.

The Op disdn't mention Blurred or UK neither.
Again, you know that by the specifics that he's posted, and specifics is the same. You decided that "system version: *retail.en.GB" means UK blurred rom... but it's not true...
It's not a uk blur rom, I know that!
It's not the rom that you're looking after, i know that!
But it respect all the system info the op post!
So maybe it's the good, maybe not!
As I say before retail.en.GB can be your uk blurred rom, or also western Europe deblurred rom.
The two are original sbf with these system version.
If someone looking after western Europe deblur it's the good one, otherwise it isn't.
Now stop this sterile discussion.
Edit: I've editing the post with the link for more clarity.

Hi,
I am very new to android and all that it is about.
My wife's phone had some water damage and was repaired for free via a friend's friend. However for somereason they flashed it with the localised orange version (froyo 2.2) and this version has things we don't need and is lacking some features, before that it was a 2.2.1 stock unbranded version (the device was imported from HK) which I would like to go back to, but I am unsure which of the files in stock rom thread I need to download.
What is the difference between the different files (other than the version number) and what is the difference between the regions?
Currently the phone is:

By the time i got home to download it all the post had been removed so i missed the opportunity.
If anyone could point me in the right direction i'd be damn happy!
As far as my knowledge goes i remember reading that swapping from this "custom" to the official would not violate EULA nor my warranty, and that i'd be able to do it without having to root the phone.

Any special difference from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4?
'Cause i'm looking forward at 2.3.6 already
I've found some minor UI tweaks so far, nothing major.
About 2.3.6 I think it will take a while to arrive at stock roms, maybe sooner with CM7 or MIUI only.

No problems whatsoever with 2.3.4?
No 3g data on/off problems on UHKG4 modem? I read that some guys were having some issues on getting 3g data back on after losing signal for whatever reason.
Can you confirm that everything works fine?
I just got an SGS II from Claro and I´m thinking of flashing it with this ROM to get rid of all that Claro crap (and get some original stuff back, like GTalk).
Can you hint me with the specific thread on how to flash SGS II with this ROM?

So, the UHKE4 rom i flashed as avaliable from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 (manual included there) is a 2.3.3.
Again, mine was bought THE DAY AFTER it was released here in Brazil, in late June so it has the hw version from Chile.
Aside from that it's all fine and dandy!
The major difference from the 2.3.4 FW is that you don't get Folha and Livraria Cultura apps.

it's possible for you to change to other EURO 2.3.4. but impossible for stock froyo or any other custom rom (cm7/miui).
Concerning downgrade, we should try the procedure found by Defy owners.
They already had this downgrade problem (when they moved from Eclair to Froyo), and found a way to do it with a nandroid+sbf flashing. It should probabily work for us as well...
Take a look in defy section on xda, I'm a bit on a hurry and can't search for you right now...
Quick question: if my asian versioned MS2 installs this GB UK update, will it be able to use asian font app?
I am a UK Milestone 2 owner. When I got the phone, it had 70.12 bootloader and Froyo.
After the official Gingerbread update, I was able to go back to stock froyo, as well as custom froyo AND gingerbread ROMs, using RSD Lite, so have no fear - it's *NOT* impossible to go back.
What? Are you serious? Can you be more specific about it then. As far as we've already seen, nobody (except for you right now) was able to do downgrade from stock GB. It looks like you have some sort of magic M2 (no-efuse version)
I`ve read on this forum about engeneering versions of MS2..
this is probably such phone rather than magic

I know this site but there are no version I am looking for.
I guess that sign “OLE-xx” means the version number. Is it true?
If yes, on this site there is version: 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-26-release-keys-signed-NonEFIGSRetail-EU which I think is older than mine (mine was “OLE-27”).
Can you tell me if the version 1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31.1-release-keys-signed-NonEFIGSRetail-EU.sbf.gz will work OK with my phone which was sign “OLE-27”?
Is it international European version without branding? Is the mark “OLE-31” means that it is newer version than mine?
Thanks
My european Atrix had the ole 31 version when I bought it,and it was gb 2.34,unbranded.
Which version of android did yours have? I think ole 27 is like 2.33 or something...can anyone confirm?
Sent from my ATRIX
It is 2.3.4 too.
The file "OLE-31" on this webpage will works with my device?

Man, this is an european firmware and you got an european device, it should work but flashing with rds-lite is always a risk.
I flashed few times and i got problem for two reasons:
1) i forgot to wipe properly (I suggest to: fastboot -w, fastboot erase system, fastboot erase data, fastboot erase preinstall, fastboot erase cache)
2) I forgot to remove sd-card (f_k*d off) and sim-card (this had more luck)
Flash with battery fully charged and I think you'll enjoy.

- Fastboot wipe (optional)
- Remove sd card and sim card (necessary)
- Make sure you have proper drivers (necessary)
- Use the latest RSD (recommended)
- Make sure you have the correct (signed) SBF, best to use the build that the phone was last on officially (important)
- Double check everything (important)
- Put the phone into RSD mode (then plug it into the computer) and select the appropriate file in RSD and press "Start" (cross fingers)
Always use caution when using RSD. If you're not sure about something then find the answer FIRST.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage you might cause to your phone by following these instructions. This is a suggested overview and you should put in the proper amount of research and time to make sure you are doing things correctly.
With that said, depending on why you want to return to stock it may be preferable to use a "Fruitcake" as others have suggested, but I have successfully used RSD Lite to return my phone to stock in the past so it is "possible", though not recommended.
Good luck.

Hello Together,
I am not able to download the file (1FF-olympus_emara-user-2.3.4-4.5.2A-74_OLE-31.1-release-keys-signed-NonEFIGSRetail-EU.sbf.gz), provided by the link on first page. Does someone know what may be the problem? Could you provide another place ?
Thanks in advance!

There's a SEA-Retail sbf in there. Look for the one that ends with "-searet". And yes, it's the full stock sbf.
As has been warned many times in this forum, if you don't know what you're doing, DO NOT flash an sbf. It might brick your phone. Although 4.5.2A is the latest version for SEA (which means it should be safe - bricking only occurs when downgrading), I'd still recommend caution.
i c..so after i unlocked and flash custom rom, can i use this sbf to back to stock and perform ota? or after unlocked bl, i could not use ota if it is available..
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
You can use that to go back to stock, but only if you were on the same/earlier build. Do not use sbf to downgrade.
hmm..ok..mean that if i flash custom rom from 4.5.2A version of 2.3.4, if wan to go back stock, i only can flash this 4.5.2A sbf to get back to stock rite?

Yes.
that's nice..thank for the answer..by the way, can I still update to official ics through ota update if Motorola release it using this sbf? it won't brick my device right?
You *should* be able to update from stock ROM, but since official ICS isn't out yet, we still don't know if Moto changes anything in their update policy. They could in theory prevent the updates to be installed on unlocked devices.
In any case, when the official update hits, I'll bet the devs are gonna be all over it anyway...
ok..maybe i will just unlocked it and use because i not sure when is ics will release for international version..thanks for help ya..
ICS has only been confirmed for US (AT&T) devices. Other regions are still "under evaluation". Seeing how the US version is currently on 2.3.6 and other regions on 2.3.4, I wouldn't bet on Motorola releasing ICS internationally unless there's a huge pressure from users like with Milestone's Froyo update.
so there might had chance that international version might not get the ics upgrade?
Yes. Looking at Motorola's update history, there's a chance that the international version won't get ICS (at least officially).
i see..but motorola update schedule listed the asia retail as ics upgrade in planing. so it might fail during the process?
From Motorola's Upgrade News:
PHASE 1 – EVALUATION & PLANNING: During this phase, we evaluate the benefits, technical issues and user experience of an upgrade. Generally, we are not able to provide release dates in this stage. There are also some cases in which we can state that an upgrade will happen but are not able to provide a release date. Please note that some products that enter the Evaluation and Planning phase may not complete the upgrade cycle.
wow..seriously speechless..but then never mind. if its fail, I still can grab custom rom that based on at&t ics right?
Yes. I do hope we get an official ICS release, though.
