"flash zip (CM9-ICS-MR1-120305-jordan)***** DONT flash Kernel our you'll get Err:A5,70,00,00,23****"

anybody?

you will need to flash a new SBFusing RSD lite.
I used this SBF http://www.multiupload.nl/I52KOPDS8N
It should work unless you have flashed a higher version before hand. If you have installed a higher version then try these SBF and use one the same version you flashed before.
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php
Yes if you are installing ICS and following the defy+ guide dont flash the CM9 kernel.
If you want to install ICS then use this ROM http://defy-cm.net/CM9-NIGHTLY-120417-Defy+.zip Its the new epsylon one as I heard the Quarx has a few more issues not sure if the new build has sorted it out,
You can use the latest version of gapps found here http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120422-signed.zip
Follow these instructions using the rom and gapps I linked but skip the flash CM9 kernel
A How to on flashing ICS(Defy Plus Builds)

You do have a custom recovery, don't you?
It seems like you are trying to flash from stock recovery.
You need a custom recovery (Clockworkmod or TWR) to install ROMs.
You can get it by using the 2ndinit app. (Read the all-in-one defy beginners guide.)
Don't forget to click the Thanks button if this helped you.

so that means i need to install this 2ndInit Recovery Installer v2.3 then i can easily flash the CM9 nightly i want?
sorry for this newbie question but is clockworkmod = 2nd init recovery? do i have to install the clockworkmod after i installed the 2nd init recovery? or all i need is the 2ndinit recovery installer?

Thread moved. Please post questions here in Q&A in future.
Thanks

i'll post what i've done so newbie like me can root + flash their stock defy+

[Q] Last version of CM10.1 for defy (mb525)

Hello,
I own a defy mb525 with CM7.2.0. I am not so happy with this version (bad 3g access; battery life very short)
So I decided to install the CM10.1.
On the develloper page I saw that the status has been updated on the 26.03. But if I look for my model (mb525), I can find only a version dated on the 120904.
Is there a newer version for the mb525 or is it only for the mb520 and mb526 ?
Regards

It should work for both. Same as latest builds of CM10.

2ndboot builds: they are one build for both mb525 &5 26 .... so you can download the 26.03 nightly build and update on your MB525 :good:

Yes, there is CM10 from Quarx. Your device can be either mb525 or mb526 with red lens or green lens. CM10.1 from the same person also can.

First of all, none of you guys ever read the stickies. It is packed with good info.
Our phone has a locked bootloader, it is almost impossible to brick.
Download latest CM10 and then install.

Ive come across a newbi problem im on the link of the latest cm10 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768702) and the file I try to flash wont install it gets aborted, I searched the forms for other cm10 and same issue file gets aborted.
If possible to be directed to the file I need to flash to cm10

You are trying to flash through stock recovery. Install through custom recovery.

Im just guessing.... that my bootmenu seems to be out of date possible being the reason that jellybean wont install,
bootmenu is up to 2ndInit Recovery v2.3 can this file be installed over v1.1.1 ?

out of curiousity, i restored my mb525 back to cm7 nightly 20111201 nandroid, which has cwm v5.0.3.2. i did not check the bootmenu version but it should be the same as yours. then, after formatting system/cache partitions, i flashed cm-10-20130918-nightly-mb526.zip, and it worked.
so i don't really know what's wrong with your phone, but i have a couple of suggestions for you to try. not that there's any logical explanations but try it anyway:
1. according to the error messages, you have the cm10 rom in the root folder of the sdcard. try creating a sub-folder called cm10 and copy the cm10 rom and the minimal gapps into it.
2. download the defy_fullwipe_ext4.zip and defy_fullwipe_ext3.zip ( for later use, when you want to revert back your rom) from here and put them in cm10 folder as well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818520
3. reboot into recovery but don't do any format or wipe. instead flash the file defy_fullwipe_ext4.zip and this will format your partitions into the ext4 file system.
4. then flash the cm10 rom. if it installs sucessfully, then without any further wiping,nor flashing the minimal gapps, reboot the phone. (note that the os will reboot once more in the middle of booting up, seemingly having a bootloop problem. don't worry it's meant to do that, unless it rebooted more than once)
5. if it boots up sucessfully, do some basic set up first before rebooting back into recovery to flash the minimal gapps.
alternatively you could try flashing cm9.1 (ext3) to get a newer bootmenu and cwm versions before flashing cm10. no need to flash any gapps, just wipe system/cache partitions and flash the cm9.1 rom by itself. reboot into cm9.1, do basic set up. once it's ready reboot into recovery and do the above steps, starting from step 3, to flash cm10.
good luck.....

I did try using that link but the files still would abort when flashing, also tried http://d-h.st/users/Quarx files it did the same thing
I followed your instruction but decided to goto cm 9 first I flashed the (ext3) file it installed and cm9.1 installed also installed twrp with no issues but when I was going through cm9 and its functions I couldent go on line a popup message (Unfortunately, brower has stopped) also I wasn't able to log on google play a pop up message (Unfortunately,com. google android.gb has stopped). so I got fed up and decided to goto cm10.1 so I first flashed with ext4.zip it installed and then tried to flash 10.1 file once again the file wouldn't install it gave me aborted file message again. I had no choice to reboot and I had to reinstall the factory file(brick). I am now back to where I started :silly: cm7 2.3.7 its been a hell of a weekend ........... ill give it another shot soon :fingers-crossed:

I tried google-ing the problem, found some information about removing lines from updater-script, but the line was not even there (something with asserts).

Try a system wipe. That error is because of some filesystem problem, not 2ndboot

I tried wiping with AROMA wiper yesterday: ext4, wipe data, system, cache, dalvik, then NO reboot and install cm 10... it failed as hell.

ive had the same issue as you with cm10 2ndboot. i moved on after trying to get it installed for months. 10.2 is awesome! just make sure you start from a fresh sbf flash and reroot and all that jazz. also, start with twrp!

I tried different nightlies of JB 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, MIUI JB. Also did clean install with 0 success. I'm getting close to the problem, and reached this far:
1.: My CWM (5.x.x.x) does not support the 2nd boot updater script. I don't know how could I upgrade to CWM v6 (seriously, I searched a lot but nothing.)
2.: I can't install TWRP. I mean... Éclair and froyo does not support GooManager to install from an app, and I can only install CWM from 2ndinit.apk. From CWM I install TWRP, it says: "Whoah you are great bro, reboot recovery!" I do that and boom CWM again.
Srsly.: HOW can this happen to me? Other ppl resolved this problem by flashing DFP sbf to their normal Defy (red lens). I won't do that. You know, there must be a way I can install CWM v6 or TWRP. But how? If anyone gives me a solution for my problem which is going on for half a year... I'll get a heart attack I'll be so happy

Uhm.... recently i had to start from SBF and had no problem installing last ( Quarx's ) build of 4.1.2 after having installed the first 2ndinit i downloaded from the web ... so... write exactly your steps ( i know, i know, .. but .... where'R talking through a monitor and misunderstandings are waitnig for us )

After these, I can't revert to any rom even if i format to ext3 with AROMA Wiper. Cuz' my defy goes soft-bricked and i have to recover it RSD Lite.

Do not reboot after wiping/formatting system. Immediately flash some ROM. Ext3 --> CM7.

I started with sbf, Framaroot, 2ndinit. Then I directly flashed CM10 (9th July) and it flashed successfully. The latest dual recovery has CWMv6, but it's only for CM10 ROMs. Have you tried pre-TWRP builds (maybe the November builds)?
Or maybe, other ROMs like PA, PAC, etc.?

I forgot to add that my problem got resolved like a month ago.
My main problem was that I couldn't install any JB rom because of status 0, status 7 or bootloop (always), so I went radical:
I flashed DFP231.sbf (for defy plus) on bayer lens defy (MB525!), used Framaroot to root, installed LATEST(!) cwm, and then I could install CM10.x with no problem!
