Hello I have a problem with my milestone 2.
I was using cm7 and today I flashed the official gb sbf via RSD.
Then the phone bootlooped and I tried to enter motorola recovery pressing the "x" and then the @, but when the android exclamation appears and I pressed the @ nothing happened. As I have not gotten into recovery mode I decided to flash froyo sbf.
RSD said "finished" and didn't do anything. I tried to boot up the phone via power button and nothing happens. Tried charging the phone with no results. So now I've got no idea of what to do.
Any ideas?
Sorry for my english
Thank you
Ok now ive managed the way of flashing the phone again. Weird though, With the screen in black. Now it works. For avoiding the bootloop, it is possible to wipe data/dalvik/cache via the pc?
Thanks
Are you sure you have some charge in battery yet? Did you have full battery before flashing SBF? If you are sure, this is not because battery is empty, then try to get into bootloader by holding Power+Volume Down+Camera button and it should be recognised in Windows and then you can try RSD Lite. Or you can try another computer/cable/Linux
EDIT: I don't think so, since you can only use RSDLite (or sbf_flash in Linux/Mac) when in bootloader mode. So best way for you would be flashing SBF again.
yes I had battery and I bought a wall charger just in case. ( I had the battery problem months ago)
I'm having strange issue. The screen is black and RSD recongnises the phone. I can flash sbf but the screen is block during the "creating image file" status. When rsd says "flashing code group etc..." the phone screen lits and shows "SW update in progress" as normal.
But when RSD reaches 100% it says "finished and PASS".
I've done this before and at this part the phone reboots and rsd messoges "the phone is being rebooted"...
Now im trying too flash gingerbread official again...
let's see
Ok now with the official GB sbf the phone reboots lets see if it bootloops.
Asking again!:
Is possible to wipe dalvik/data/cache without entering recovery? via PC?
OK if someone has this problem remember that the @ button doesn't work anymore. Try vol up + vol down instead!!!
My MS2 is too. Don't boot into HS.

i had same problem here`s solution.
Having the same issue, none solution worked for me so far...
have u guyz flashed that 70.13 bootloader before? i did it like 3 months and i think that's the issue.
How is it?
OK people this problem is semi-solved.
If you flashed the official GB you can't downgrade.
If you try it you will get a black screen and the only solution is to re-flash the official GB

that`s, what i wrote answering Your post
This problem can fix.
1. Enter Stock recovery by: Put both POWER + X -> put together Vol + and Vol -.
2. Factory reset ( wipe data) and wipe cache partition
3. Done...
Guys, I am having kind the same problem with my device.
I try factory reset on the recovery mode, but then the phone shuts off before it end and does not comes back out (I have to wait couple minutes to get back).
I was trying to upgrade my phone from 2.2 to 2.3.5...
I try the bootloader and it shows me that the battery is low and nothing happens.
This happens, even when it is pluged to the wall charging.
I see also that, the light next to the mini ubs connector shuts off when the phone turns on.
I do not know what is going on and what else I can do to fix it..
Can you guys help me out?

You can't just go back to froyo from gb, at least not directly.
If you were on any 2.3.4 or Retail/TIM Brazil 2.3.6 (not VIVO) , you can try this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497263
Good luck :good:

Maybe you tried to downgrade a non-downgradeable 2.3.6 firmware... what firmware did you have before the brick?

Maybe try to flash via RSD Lite the same stock firmware you had before CM7 (GB) and do a full wipe, then if the stock firmware is downgradeable (you have to check that it is BL=3 or lower, if it is BL=4 you're stuck in GB) try the method posted by Lean946: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1497263
In the post linked there's a tool to check the BL version
To flash the original stock you must get the sbf file from here: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_milestone2/list.php
And the motorola drivers from http://developer.motorola.com/tools/usb_drivers/
And RSD Lite 5.7 from http://www.mediafire.com/?racaejnadym1q2g
And follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032372
Hope it helps

I tried to flash a custom rom to a defy, but after flashing i got a bootloop.. After that i have tried everything to get a normal working installation but everything failed.
Now i am stuck with a phone that does not want to boot and even cannot get into the bootloader... So i cannot flash using RSD Lite.
Is there another way to unbrick this phone? Or is it end of story?
can you enter on CWM??
Sent from my MB526 using XDA App
1) Remove battery
2) Plug phone to PC
3) launch rsdlite (make sure rsdlite driver's is already working properly)
4) Press power and vol+ , and insert battery.
5) Defy screen might still blank but rsdlite would show status connected.
6) flash back your default sbf
7) boot into stock recovery and do factory reset.
8) reboot.
Note: if your defy is in full flash over gingerbread sbf, you're in trouble. Flash again any gingerbread sbf might help for quick resurrection. If your defy is in froyo, try flashing only froyo, otherwise if you're desperate, gingerbread sbf would help. You're warned for no possibility of downgrade.
Note 2: Battery must at least 80% and above to safely flashing and recovering process.

I made a nandroid backup first. Then i tried to install MIUI rom and that did not boot. Tried to restore my nandroid backup, but it did not work. After that i have tried to flash a lot of sbf files but all did not work correclty. Also putting back my nandroid backup was not working.
Your battery is fully loaded?
What happens when you plug in the loader (powercord with adapter in AC plug) when phone is off, is there a battery loading icon appearing?

If there is no white led or anything im afraind you have to send it for repair.
In the Netherlands i have a very good experience with:

Last thing you can try is to turn the phone on with vol down but i think you have allready tried that.

I have the same problem. I come from 2ndinit cm10 and wanted to revert back to cm7.2 but my defy failed to boot. After that I flashed FIXED.French.3.4.2-164.RETAIL.sbf
I hoped that might flash the kernel (home, back buttons were dark due to cm10). I got the red M back and a bootloop.
So I tried some sbf's I had on my hdd. Now the battery is at 3,3v and rsd lite doesn't get the phone. When I apply 5v (like the McGyver hack) the voltage drops to about 4v because the battery is being charged (dangerously I know).
Anyway rsd lite sees my defy again, I am able to flash. But when it should reboot, rsd sais PASS and the screen stays dark.
Connecting usb causes the charging led go on.
How can I bring the device back to life?
Thanks
Dennis
Hi, hold vol down and power, then make a factory reset.

That doesn't work. The screen stays black except I flash a sbf with externally powered battery.
I am not able to see the bootloader or recovery.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
I had this problem, try different sbf's. The first 2-3 that I tried which gave me a blank screen were too old (from 2010) and the last one was from 2011 which was successful. Try with sbf from 2011.
Do you still know what sbf's you have tried and which one did it's job?
Thank's for your answer though!
Edit:
I tried the following one without success
JRDNEM_U3_2.21.0_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA028.0R_USAJORDANRTDACH_P017_A003_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf

i had same case, blank screen.
even no bootloader text.
with charger i got white led.
then connected it to pc and RSD found it,
then flashed with this instruction:
there is some kind special fixed SBF on the link
[GUIDE] All-in-One Defy Beginner's guide
Method 2: (BIG thanks to Jebrew again for this one)
NOTE: You are going to need CM7 for this one. CM7 Stable version recommended.
Download this SBF and Flash it.
Root your phone.
Download 2nd Init 1.4.2 and Install ClockworkMod Recovery.
Reboot to CMW recovery, and wipe Data/Cache.
Install CM7 then install Google Apps.
Reboot an go into Stock Recovery (using the vol- button, not from Bootmenu).
Do a Data/Cache Wipe or you won't have any space when you're done.
Flash this Fixed SBF
Reboot into your nice new rom.
Do not Wipe Data anymore or you will have to start again.
You WONT be able to install full SBFs of any Éclair or Froyo since these Androids have lower CG Versions.

Did you try also this special fixed JORDN_U3_97.21.51.sbf from this guide ?
battery should not be low, otherwise RSD would not connect.
but if, then MacGyver power supply trick.
Yes, I took this sbf. Battery is ok. RSD lite is able to flash.
But when the phone should reboot, the screen stays black and the phone connects to RSD lite saying finished, pass.
Hello mates,
this morning I've taken to update the defy of CM10-20120810 to 20120904 CM10-last (had 2.3.4 kernel "kernel-gb-234-451-134-signed")
but after upgrading, has given me the battery fault that I was 100%
I tried several times to put him the Fix battery, but nothing at all ...
so I've taken to "Flashing" the Defy, first I tested with
ME722BL6.sbf
later with
rom_froyo.sbf
and when I RDSLite says "the phone is beein Rebbot" or something .. I restart, get the Motorola logo disappears .. and goes blank ..
and puts me in RDSLite "Finished" and "PASS"
Defy but does nothing ... and when I press the power button is switched off, give it back, turn again as "Bootloader" with the following error
Err: A5, 70,39,00,27
I've also tried to say next. "sbf"

Which stock ROM were you on? If you flash the same ROM again, you should not have this problem. This happens mostly if you flash a ROM with lower BL than the current one on your phone.

The first SBF i put, there rom_froyo.sbf (original from motorola i think)
before i try to upgrade to CM10-20120904 i have kernel 2.3.4 and i think that the same "rom_froyo.sbf", because i made only one time Flash with RDSLite...
from first and unique flash with RDSLite, only i made update from recovery mode - install zip from sd
only put cm7, cm9 and cm10, then the Gapps... and the last time when upgrade to cm10 i made, install cm10.zip, install kernel 2.3.4, and install gapps...
Any idea about the firmware version?

As you flashed ME722BL6.sbf, you are now on BL6 and I assume that's a Defy+ ROM, so no downgrade to Froyo. Try flashing the ME722BL6.sbf file again and don't flash froyo ROM on top of it. If it gets stuck on M logo, go to recovery and do a factory reset.
If you have a greenlens defy, you can no longer use the camera.

the principal problem now is that can not made nothing... only it put in white led when i connected to usb...(no combination (power+vol+ or power vpl-) made nothing)
Try this: Pull out battery. Keep volume + pressed. Insert battery and then press power button. It should now enter bootloader mode. Connect it now to PC and then flash SBF with RSD.

I'm trying to charge the battery via USB cut,
red wire to positive and black to negative,
I'll leave loading an hour or more, and try again.
what "sbf" do you recommend that put in defy? BL6 or BL7 ...
Could you put the recommended "sbf" links?
thanks.
Charging on unregulated USB for an hour can kill your battery

What defy you have: red, green or plus? You cant install lower rom than 188. If you have plus - you'll have all things working, red - battery can make work with batt fixes, green - camera will never work on BL7, only on CM10,CM9.1 or other roms with custom kernel. You're stuck on BL7 so try flash 231 sbf. Read this post, you'll find more info: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12419400&postcount=3

through RSD lite 4.9 but probably battery was drained, as i could not get the phone to boot after pass message, just a white LED and phone not detecting on RSD lite and not going into boot loader.
With macgyver hack, my pc could recognize the phone and i have flashed a number of ROMs but phone never boots.
While rest all sbfs were froyo, i also flashed
3.4.2-179-002-tmobile-froyo-fixed.sbf
T-mobile froyo bootonly.sbf
and
Tmo_2.2.1-3.4.2-107-boot-devtree-ONLY.sbf

after macgyver hack flash one sbf. go to stock recovery and wipe your data/chage.
Than you sould flash again one froyo. And it will work. Good luck.
I had same problem when i went back to froyo. I forgot to wipe date/chage and it didn't boot.

Hi together, well I hope this is the right place.... I'm owner of a motorola Defy MB 525 that ran without any problems on cm9 nightly for last 6 month. Now suddenly it doesn't start any moer andIi can't access recovery setup nor anything else so it's impossible to wipe anything, too. When connected to my notebook only the white LED is shining but nothing happens. The typical "hardware-found-ping" appears and several seconds later the " hardware was removed ping." The right drivers are installed on my notebook, but even RSD Lite doesn't found my Defy so I can't flash enything. Anyone has any Idea what to to?
Thank's in advance for any help!

But RSD Lite saw my defy, but when RSD Lite send phone to reboot after flash - nothing happening.
I've tried a lot of SBFs from h*t*t*p://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordan/list.php but nothing helping.
My defy show only two screens: 'SW Update In Progress...' and 'SW Update Complete' and nothing new on display.
Maybe my battery discharged and McGyver hack doesn't help....

Try to flash the file mentioned here. This did the job for me.

Good luck!
So, I had some issues with my Defy+...
I tested the latest 4.1.2 nightly and seemed like my backup was corrupted (?!) and I had to flash a 2.3.6 BL-6 .SBF since the backup would make me enter a bootloop.
Well, I tried with different .SBFs and sadly all of them have the same effect: the flashing process moves smooth, except that in the moment when I'm asked to power it up it's entering a bootloop.
Now, my battery STILL has some inside, but trying to charge it won't work(gives me the "?" sign). Don't know what should I do. Should I leave the phone in the bootloop until the battery goes away and then to re-flash a .SBF?...
Or my flashing process wasn't good enough and there's a workaround I don't know?... I don't want to brick my phone forever.
Charge battery with mcgyver metod or with other defy & reflash it with 231 sbf. For more info read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537
So, there's no other option out there?...

Recharge battery with mcgayver metod and reflash sbf, you'll need start from scratch, because your bootmenu was corrupted and you can't restore nandroid or reinstall zip

Once you have flashed the sbf and back on stock you need to go into the moto recovery and do a restore to default / format system. that should get around the boot loop issue... at least it did for me...
Can't acsess anything

Hi together, well I hope this is the right place.... I'm owner of a motorola Defy MB 525 that ran without any problems on cm9 nightly for last 6 month. Now suddenly it doesn't start any moer andIi can't access recovery setup nor anything else so it's impossible to wipe anything, too. When connected to my notebook only the white LED is shining but nothing happens. The typical "hardware-found-ping" appears and several seconds later the " hardware was removed ping." The right drivers are installed on my notebook, but even RSD Lite doesn't found my Defy so I can't flash enything. Anyone has any Idea what to to?
Thank's in advance for any help!

Do you connect it to RSD in bootloader mode? Volume + when powering on. What is on the screen then?

If you haven't flashed yet try to keep with BL6 sbfs, and not BL7 like 231.
After battery charge try to get to stock recover (volume down when powering on) and wipe data/factory reset before flashing.
bootloader

Hi, I can't enter bootloader mode, nor anything else. The screen stays dark and the phone doesn'treact. Only mi notebook pings when i press the startbutton one phone. Once for Hardware detected and seconds later for hardware removed. from time to time the notebook tries to find drivers, but couldn't and abort searching.

And your battery? Is it charged?
Hi,
1. I rooted my phone successfully.
2. I installed droid2recovery.apk
3. Restarted. Installed CM10 and Gaaps (wrong version)
4. Reboot. Everything was normal with some annoyances due to the wrong version of Gaaps.
5. Checked and the phone was already rooted in CM10. Installed droid2recovery.apk again. Reboot.
6. Trapped in bootloop.
7. Reboot and enter in system recover.
8. Tried to install CM10 and correct Gaaps. Not possible due to failed to verify whole-file signature.
9. Discover that official recover mode doesn't install unofficial roms.
10. Searched for official roms of Milestone 2 BR. All links are broken.
11. I flashed downgrade_for_bl_3 with RSD Lite. Everything was ok. PASS.
12. Still bootloop. Enter in recover mode. Black screen. Can't see the android icon with exclamation mark.
Is my phone a paper holder now? Please advise.
I'm really without luck today.
I manage to flash a SBF with Android 2.3.6, exactly like the one I had. But then I couldn't root, not with the same method I rooted mine, not with any other method.
Then I downloaded another SBF and used RSD Lite to flash it, and the phone completely died. RSD reported everything OK, PASS, Finished, perfect.
Now nothing happens. The phone is off, black screen. Completely dead. But if I hit Power + Vol - + Camera, the computer recognize. But nothing on the screen. I'm re-flashing the same SBF again.
Why different thing happen when I proceed the same way as I did in the past?
Why can't I just flash a recover boot that accepts direct installation of Cyanogen Mod 10???

You have to flash that same Android 2.3.6 SBF file, you can't use any more that "another sbf". For rooting that 2.3.6 use this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1750277
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1758271 this can help too
After you get CM10 back running, do not use droid2recovery.apk anymore!
Thank you. That really helped.

Because you already have recovery and you don't need it... doing this you can destroy something (maybe 2-init or 2-boot), and you will need to recover your phone using RSD Lite.

Hi Douglas, did you get the milestone working again? I'm stucked with the same problem, the rsdlite recognize my cellphone I can flash it but the screen is black. Anything works
How do you fix it?
You can still flash other sbfs, but when do turn on, you need to go in recovery mode, than clear cache and data. It will start normally again.
To go to stock recovery hold when turn on "@" or "x", than when show the "android with ! " you hold volume - and foto or volume + and foto or the volume + and -, than you are in recovery.
Sorry about my English
I am showing all the option because I do not remember perfect what to do... But it works

boot into stock recovery and do a full wipe. This will solve your problem.
Press Power and x (on your Hardwarekeyboard) for several seconds. Release the buttons and you will see a yellow triangle with an exclamationmark in it. Now press vol up and down key together. voilla you got it

I wish it was that simple. After flashing the phone is completely dead. And now I cant even go to bootloader anymore.... :crying:
could your problem be battery related? do you have a chance to try using another battery?

Hi,
Sorry for the late reply. I was charging the battery
No, the problem is not the battery. Nothing works anymore. The phone doesn't even turn ON. All Black screen, not even boot loop.
So I get into the bootloader and flash new room. I can see the SN Updated text. But that is it. After it doesn't work.
I flashed DOWNGRADE BL =3 and then I flashed MILA2_U6_3.12.0_SIGNED_US1MILESTONE2PERARB125LA016.0R_GSXMILETPERARLA_P022_A013_M006_HWp2a_WIG142538_Service1FF
Nothing. Black Screen.
Then I flash M2L_U6_4.5.2_51-27_R01_SIGNED_US1MILA2GBPERARB125LA001.0R_STABLE45LAMILETPERLA_P013_A028_M001_HWp2a_Service1FF.
Then I get boot loop.
