Hello,
i try to flash a sbf on my milestone 2, but the phone isn't recognize, i had yet do that, but when i want to do now, the phone do not display in rsd lite, i think may be it's because when i plug the phone to the pc, it have name : ME722 or it's an A953, how can i solve it ?
Sorry for my english.
Try doing baaeband switch using Milestone 2 Toolbox.

Hey are you using CM7 rom? I was looking at developers secction and this issue of apearing ME722 it's because roms are based in chinese version, and the milestone 2 code is ME722. Using the new tezet's rom it will apears as A953 on computer
Milestone 2 Toolbox > Change Device Model ID
This is resolve, the way with milestone 2 toolbox doesn't work, i have use this :
Go in bootloader, and flash sbf of stock rom with rsd lite.

Hi Now am using 2.3.7 version and kernal 2.6.32.9-gb in my defy,
Am planing to install ICS 4.0.3.What kernal should download?
Becoz i already tried Mar 3 build but its stucked many times and getting restarted again so pls tel the correct methods and kernal.GApps.
Can any one help me?
If you have gingerbread kernel you need to install a Defy+ build. If you have a normal defy, I think you need to install batery fix as well. I'll try to find it. Defy+ builds work well with red lense defys, but I don't think camera works for green lense users.
Thanks...so shall I install defy + build...and kernal link available separately....what is the use of those kernal...how. and wat should be install
Sent from my MB525 using XDA
You already have a kernel. Or else you wouldn't be able to use the phone. You've already told me that you have a gingerbread kernel. So don't bother flashing a new one.
Gapps is on first page for main CM9 thread. Battery fix is somewhere in the thread :-/ Look around page 300

CM9 Kernel gives bootloader error. It's for froyo kernel users only (as far as i've understood)
DON'T flash it! It will soft brick your phone!

I hope all doubts over
CM9 builds,gapps & battery fix is enough to my phone to run ICS.
Have to flash above three things?
Am i right?
Yup, that should be it.

That is true. I have a Defy+ and I installed the CM9 kernel. It soft bricked my phone and I had to do a SBF flash, root CWM recovery and all things all over!! Flash the CM9 built for Defy+ by Quarx. It does restarts and freezes ocassionally but is okay otherwise for a beta version!!
Noop Q, If I am on a Cm9 rom, how can I restore to my stock rom ( 2.3.4) ?
P/s: I have a backup of my stock rom. What will I need to do? I can't use RSD lite because I am using windows 8 CV on my laptop, so I can't install Moto driver!!
Thank U !!!

You need GB kernel version

Is it a bad idea? will it give any problems?
Only battery may give issues without a battery patch in the gingerbread roms including stock. All 2ndboot builds will work the same way.
Oh, and model will change to defy+(cosmetic)

DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-161_HE this is the sbf that i accedently flashed.
is it reversable?
Here's the deal. DFP 161 is a BL6 sbf not a BL5. So if you came from froyo (probably 99.9% of all Defy's start on froyo), you cannot flash a froyo sbf otherwise you will get a black screen. However, as long as you stay away from BL7, there are plenty of ROMs and BL6 sbfs to choose from.
Actually, there is a Chinese BL6 froyo SBF, I used it once as a stepping stone to recover my phone, but it's saddled with bloatware and not good for daily use. Try DFP-125, it's a rock-solid stock ROM.
Check out Walter's sticky here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537 it's got all the SBFs.
And if i use a 125 (fot plus?) I will use it to use a cm7.2 or other gb rom? Or to use it as a stepping stone to get back?
Yes you can do that. But why do you want to flash the defy+ variant?
If you do that, you will have to use defy+ variant of cm7. If you want to use the defy variant, you must flash the froyo bl6 sbf and then flash any rom. ON STOCK ROM OF FROYO BL6 SBF DO NOT USE THE CAMERA OR YOUR FLASH WILL NEVER WORK AGAIN. You can use it on cm7 though

Its sounds scary to.me, what i ment to say is that cm7.2is giving me errors on my mb526. And i recall that on my original defy it worked well soi wanted to know if thers a way to turn it back to 525 and flash cm7.2
The errors described should be fixable with a data and cache wipe

i tried to flash cm7.2 again on a 125 dfp sbf; no use still getting those errors as the phone come up even after 3 wipes
Try flashing system wiper script before installing rom. Also try more recent roms like cm10,cm10.1

Hm. This is really strange.
If you've already flashed a defy+ sbf that's not BL5 or lower, then it is not possible to go back to a MB525 ROM. I think you should give CM10 a try.

I'm pretty sure wiping /system on a locked bootloader will give you a brick and force one to flash another sbf, but that might be the solution in this case.
Wiping /system by itself does not brick the device; since he will be flashing the ROM immediately after it will be a clean install. The device is bricked if after wiping system no ROM is flashed and the user reboots

You got defy or defy + ?
Also if you are looking to flash custom Rom then your current sbf is fine

Hi,
I did follow this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542956
I could flash the rom "4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN" but when I flash the ROOTED SBF, I got an blank screen on my DEFY.
Can anybody send me the FIRMWARE.ZIP and FIRMWARE.Z01 files?
Finally, I get my defy rooted! It was cased by the above FIRMWARE.ZIP and FIRMWARE.Z01 are corrupted from the download site.
Hope nobody like me!
