no you cant install rom with kernel of this 2.3.6 rom BR
but some day it will change.
ps.: Before ask, search at forum
As far as I know, you can still use Argen2Stone, the Cyanogenmod 7 from Endless7 and Cyanogenmod 9. There's no MIUI for GB kernel, so you can't install it.

Endless CM7 ROM installed, did all the procedure correctly but when the recovery Reinier it simply appears the Endless logo Rom and is fully off, the boot menu also does not start
D2Recovery boot menu and I was working properly
WHAT can be?
Which EndlessCM7 ROM you install? I think the only newest ones are compatible with GB kernel.
You have to flash the sbf 2.3.6 again and later try to install the latest rom available.
EndlessCM7 can be used.

[Q] hello sir,
Do own Defy+2.3.6 (ryt now using MS2Ginger 3 by walter79 ), want to use CM9/ICS, downloaded zip CM9-NIGHTLY-120112-Defy+.zip & CM9 kernel. kindly suggest proper installation procedure and info abt the ics gapps versions which one to use. i dont want to use other kernal rather than 2.3.6 can i flash CM9 on stock rom
waiting for ur humble replies ☻thanks in advance☻
God bless you All.
Why don't you want to use the Froyo kernel? I wouldn't use this nightly. You can't even phone with it! If you have BL6, flash the BL6-SBF with Froyo-kernel.
Don't use the flashlight until you flashed the CM7-kernel, you could burn it with the Chinese kernel of this SBF.
Then root the phone with the latest SuperOneClick and (after backup) follow my instructions here. Use the latest CM9-zip, ICS-Google-apps and the CM7-kernel(NOT the CM9-kernel) instead of the zips in that post. If you want to have the Motorola-Bootlogo back, also flash the attached Red_M_Logo.zip, or use my CM9-Bootlogo.zip. Flash the CM9-Music.zip if you want to use the new CM9 music app (it's very good, i can recommend it).
If you have BL7, i would wait until eppy makes a build for the Defy+ kernel.
thanks for your replies,
please let me know checking battery version ( bl5,bl6,bl7 ),my defy mfg. date is dec 2011 , details on battery HF5X, b052r984-1001, model L-L-L- DC111109.
and CM9 GB kernel is available so why not to use it, hope u clear my mind.

defy + wont be able to get update of 4.0 do not even try for this
I have a Defy+ with CM9/ICS, it works!
i think i try flashing it on my stock rom... i think eppsy build for gb builds hope no downgrading is required i guess any suggestions and recommendations are welcome.
WHAT VERSION HAVE YOU FLASHED ?
I mean which build are you using with Defy+ ?
i am using stock 2.3.6 and i tried
stock/cm 7.2 nightly.
stock/ics latest builds
works well but no network on second booted rom doesnt get any network ( no EMIE )
hope some one fix this soon or some one did let me know

Did you try using basebandswitcher? Just to search for a frequency similar to your stock baseband? I think you did because default ms2ginger baseband definitely isn't what you seem to be running on stock 2.3.6...
Oh, and btdubs I think Mister Ypsilon is right about using froyo kernel builds for CM9. Your nightly doesn't seem to be too stable.
*EDIT
Oh and veeranna don't forget, BL version (BL5/6/7) is not your battery version. It's the version of the bootloader, and it is very important when it comes to downgradeability.
search it up, I don't do a very good job of explaining bootloader stuff.
Its awesome but lil buggy
I did it! Installed Froyo SBF, rooted, 2nd init, then CM9 for Defy, CM7 kernel, slept at 5A.M :O and bingo there was a pretty stable ICS but without camera! After playing around with it for few hours.. Tested NFS Shift, Angry Birds and everything was smooth as butter except that there was no Camera due to which I restored it back using a full SBF flash and my Nandroid backup
Can be used if you don't need a camera..!
I have a Defy+ flashed with stock 2.3.6 SBF en.asia
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20097916&postcount=3
Check this it is working fine. Tested on my moto after a full fresh Defy+ 2.3.6 SBF flash.
There are more stable roms built by quarx and epsylon3 in the defy development thread. Camera works and camcorder works for some users. These devs are geniuses.

HI all,
Am using Defy MB525
Yesterday I tried to install ICS 4.0.3 Mar 17 build for defy+,I did factory reset and installed from SD card (ICS build,Gapps,Batteryfix),I didn’t flash any kernals like one of our forum member told, But my defy is stucked on boot logo.I tried many times but doesn’t work So again am back to 2.3.7 Version. My kernel version 2.6.32.9-gb08c3c8
Why this happened to me?
What is the procedure?
If you dont know what you are doing dont install.ics is still beta its a nightly ..and is improving day by day moreover hwa 2D is still missing without it..cm9 is just a theme like Gb..i would say better stick to stock..or flash quarx defy+ cm7 nnightly..

Sorry, I've only flashed CM9 on my defy+ and I have kernel 2.6.32.9-gbdd614e etc. I't's not exactly the same, so maybe I'm wrong about not flashing the CM9 kernel! I actualy think you have froyo kernel!
EDIT: Yes, you have FROYO kernel! Go ahead and flash the CM9 kernel! Sorry
you must flash the SBF of 2.3

If you don't know what you are talking about, then just DON'T! If he flashes stock sbf 2.3, he will never be able to go back to Froyo. All he needs to do is flash the CM9 GB kernel.
As Auris told never flash 2.3 SBF until you DONT want to downgrade! What you said you did is absolutely fine. Just flash CM9GB kernel and it will work. But anyways I don't understand why would you want to flash the CM9 Defy+ ROm because Defy ROM is likely to be updated sooner and CM officialy support Defy!
My fault! In an other thread he didn't specify all those numbers after 2.6.32.9-gbdd so I thought he had gingerbread kernel and told him to flash the plus builds!

I have a Defy, installed the 4.5.1 DHT25 rooted SBF.
Then I install CM9 using the instructions stated in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1618904
When I reboot, it goes to flash rom screen, showing error:
Err: A5,70,00,00,3D
Should I install the CM9 kernel as stated?
or as I'm using the 2.3.6 Defy+ SBF, I don't need to install CM9 kernel?
Ya u should install
I think cm9 won't work with 4.5xx kernels

You are using a 2.3.6 DEFY+ SBF? It's bl6 or bl7, either way you can not flash those kernel zips, they are meant for lower bl versions. Make sure you are flashing a Gingerbread (or jordanplus or DEFY+, it's named in many ways) ROM and skip the kernel flashing step.

What the hell? See this - link. Can you see 4.5.x in the middle of the name of every of those stock sbf files? Any ROM built for Gingerbread will work with any of those kernels.
Hi,
That partially answered my query. I would welcome if you could answer my query in some detail.
On my defy with green lens I first ported original stock Froyo then installed GGL ROM. After that I installed CM9-NIGHTLY-120617-Defy.zip but did not install any kernel.zip as suggested by other forums. And then installed gapps-ics-4.0.3-20111217 and most of the things including Opera Mobile, Camera except panorama/FC on stop thereof and GPS and few apps that I use. Opera Mini is not working where I live even via 3G.
Now my question was whether any GB kernel marked for Defy (or even Defy+) work for such CM9-ICS update.
My current kernel via GGL is [email protected] #1 Wed Apr 6 15:55:29 CST 2011.
Is there any other better kernel than the above that you my suggest?
Thanks.

If you flash a Gingerbread kernel (also named CM9 kernel) your camera won't work. Green lens doesn't have compatible drivers on Gingerbread.
Why would you want Opera Mini when you have Opera Mobile working?
If you want a fully functional ROM, I suggest you switch to some of the CM7.2 builds or MIUI Pikachu Edition or WIUI GB. These are all great, stable, fast and pretty much bug-free.
As for the kernels, changing them doesn't help much in my experience, but I do know that Epsylon somehow added some libraries (thought they are onlu meant to fix wifi tethering on CM9 as far as I know) in the Froyo kernel available on his site. You could try it - http://defy.wdscript.fr/kernel/ . (This one: kernel-froyo-222-179-4-signed.zip)
I see that you used the oldest gapps possible, I'm not sure why. Get the latest zip from here (ics version is for CM9, yes) - http://goo.im/gapps/
So, what I suggest to you if you want to stick with CM9:
1 - get the latest gapps, get that kernel and you already have the latest CM9
2 - full wipe (data/cache/dalvik)
3 - install zip - kernel
4 - install zip - ROM
5 - install zip - latest gapps
6 - wipe cache and dalvik (not necessary)
7 - reboot and see how it goes
Panorama still won't work after that, that's for sure, but I don't know what other problems you've experienced....
But why doesnt it work with 4.5.x kernels?
Mine s defy ...I'm using cm9 ( defy + gb kernel build) so cm9 doesnt bootup wid those kernels...why?

I really can't figure out what you are saying. Which CM9 build are you talking about exactly? Which kernel(s?) are you talking about exacly? Would be good if you could give me the links to both, so we can resolve the confusion

its work on DEFY
im on CM9-NIGHTLY-120609-Defy+.zip and 4.5.2_DHT-22_kernel work great
but u MUST flash cm9 kernel ...reboot and 4.5.2_DHT-22_kernel...
i dont know why it happened but i forgot to do it many times and my defy cant get even to recovery
i need to flash full SBF to fix this...i hate when its happened....(i will really glad if there are other way)
i really hope for that u done backup for your apps
p.s.
u must flash DEFY+ version for GB kernel
and DEFY for Froyo kernel
Thank you niksy on your info on kernels. However CM9 works well on defy with green lens except for the panorama mode.
I found the old gapps smaller in size. However after your post I reinstalled a later one.
I prefer Opera mini as it has a smaller mem footprint. Since mini is not working here I use Boat browser mini which is quite comparable to Opera mini in speed,
However I have one issue on CM9 when I copied SIM contacts. My phone book got bloated to over 3 times the size with some of the entries duplicated from 2 to 5 times!
With MIUI/WIUI/WP7 I feel the originality of Android is lost with those boxed icons.
Besides I read in one of the posts in xda that WIUI ICS is based on CM9.
Hi,
I have a defy and recently i have flashed an Asian Defy+ sbf on my defy.
I have rooted it and installed the Defy 2ndInit...and then afterwards i tried to install the MIUI 2.4.13 GB stable version on it.
But the installation was not successful. I got an error at the boot loader screen....something like (Err: A5,70,00,00).
Can anyone guide me how can i install MIUI on my defy again. I have attached the screenshot of the kernel details here.
I know there could be some problem with the BL it dont exactly understand it....
Thanks....
You have a GB kernel and the ROM you are flashing is based on froyo kernel.

miui is based on the CM7 kernel for defy. The froyo kernel. There is no chance to get miui work on the defy+ GB kernel.
so if you weren't able to flash a froyo sbf (downgrade), you might use cm10.
Sent from my GT-P7500 using XDA Premium HD app
After intalling CM10 by tezet, I find that I still prefer the CM7 by tezet. So I decide to install CM7 instead CM10. But when I installed CM10, I installed kernel-milestone2-cn-2.3.4-4.5.3.
So my question is that whether I need install kernel-milestone2-uk_2.2.1-froyo before installing CM7?
Thanks in advance.
same question here hope some one could shed some light.
before i went to cm10 i was on stock froyo though 2.2.
You should be able to flash CM7 with that chinese kernel you flashed, just remember to do a full backup and full wipe, you're downgrading.
Get the 2.2.1 UK kernel and put it in your SD card, just in case something goes wrong even if you get into bootloops you should be able to get to the bootmenu.
If you still cannot get into bootmenu, recover your phone with an SBF.
Good luck

Yes, you need to instal this kernel, else you stuck on boot logo. It looks like new CM7 builds doesn't contains kernel.

although someone has answered you question,I wanna answer that again.
Yes,you mus install it before installing CM7.Kernel is most important. The whole system is complied with special kernel Version.

I didn't include kernel not on purpose Will fix this next time...
I'm with the same question so correct me if i'm wrong,
For all who want to downgrade from cm10 to cm7 and are using CH-GB kernel have to:
1 - flash Froyo Kernel
2 - flash latest cm7
3 - install gapps
My question is, can I install this kernel by "install from zip" mode?
