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.

Where do you see he asked for blurred rom? You came up with this because you saw gb in systemversion.
Looking at post 5 of this thread and pm that i had with him i'm pretty sure that he is from Belgium:

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.

Good luck.
Moto_Version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.CEE is Retail Central Europe and deblurred
Moto_Version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.GB is Retail Western Europe and deblurred
There is also a turkish 3.4.2-179-2 also deblurred.
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

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.

Thanks for effort posting to this thread. Unfortunately this is not what I am looking for as the devs page is not provoding the HC 3.1 Euro Retail firmware up to now...
I was pretty surprised to find a FOTA update waiting for my brand new Motorola Defy+ (Asia) when I logged on to Wifi after work. However after download, it invariably fails to install with a very simple error message of install failed !
FOTA details
-------------
Version : 45.0.1321.en.03
Changelog : http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles...cuments/Staticfiles/RN_DEFY-PLUS_Asia_MEA.htm
Phone Details
--------------
System Version : 45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03
Baseband Version : EPU93_U_00.60.00
Android Version : 2.3.4
However when I browse to the /cache folder (where the FOTA files are downloaded I see these 2 files : Blur_Version.45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03.crc and Blur_Version.45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03.zip
Can anybody please throw some light on what the hell is going on ? Did Motorola goof up and push 45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03 (already installed on the phone) as the update instead of 45.0.1321.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03 (As displayed on the update popup) ?
Same here
Same experience for me too. Tried 3 times. Each time it reboots, a progress bar appears, but fairly quickly it shows an exclamation mark and the screen blanks out. Then it appears to boot normally and finally shows update failed message.
this software update failed
Im getting same response on my uk unbranded mb526

Abesh, Did you have to take it in to a motorola service station?
They asked me to, but I told them that I have RSDLite and can flash the SBF if they gave me the sbf. They shared a dropbox link and I flashed myself.
Note however once you flash you'll loose root. SuperOneClick and Droid3Root does not work. Only way to get root is to use DooMLoRD's script. Refer to my post on how to root the Defy+ 2.3.6 in this forum.

Today the update suddenly popped up on my phone, same problem the update failed !
When my phone arrived i deblurred it by editing build.props then hard reset, then i rooted it using the trick "from the german forum" so maybe this is why it failed to update ?

Update your Defy Plus using your PC.
It is very easy to update your Defy plus and RSDlite is not required for updating the handset.
1) Just go to motorola India website and select defy plus then click Owner Support button.
2) On owner's support page you will have to click Update my software link.
3) Select defy plus from drop down menu.
4) on that page click "I have read Step 3 about third-party media."
5) and click download update.
6) Install the update software and after its installation connect your defy plus to your PC with USB cable.
7) The "Motorola update manager" software automatically detects your defy plus and install some drivers. it will take upto 5 to 10 minutes.
8) after that select update my phone software and your phone will get the latest update available.

You would like to try what? What I was stating was my Moto E has an update available to 6.0 MM. I have not downloaded it as of yet, cause I am aware there's something you need to do first in order to capture the download for redistribution. From what I understand you cannot use an already downloaded and installed OEM~OTA update for redistribution...
A little guidance from the seniors would be EXTREMELY appreciated, as this is my first thread ever... I'm looking at you squid2 lolz
i am waiting for the 7th when Telus said they would roll it out.
Not sure how they make the uploaded Firmware archives either..
No matter how many time i asked i either got ignored or hammered with some weird advice (English issue?)
And i meant the one that we all use uploaded to Mega etc.
Who is making them and with what?
Apparently no one knows and what concerns me even more is a little thing called security.
I asked so uhhh why are we not using hashes to verify the firmware ?
It's complete insanity to check hashes on some dumb app and not your OS ..that just blows me away LOL
I'm interested in putting this on my Sprint phone (XT1526). CM13 won't detect my Canadian SIM.
24.51.39.en.CA
That's the fsent. Will upload in a few hrs.
Does anyone know if I'll be able /aloud to post a AFH link here on this thread I started?

Could you please lend a fellow Ontarian brother a hand, and tell me where the OTA file actually is? I've had the damn thing for a week now, and I can't seem to find it anywhere to capture it! I would love to actually install this OTA...
I do appreciate your help in finding somebody who had done the work already. However the OTA that I have waiting on this phone is a slightly different one. the numbers are different 24.51.39.... my educated guess is going to be it is slightly smaller because it contains no Rogers or Telus bloatware. Wind Mobile does not have a single app installed on this phone right outta the box, So I would like to capture it before I send it off to be installed.
I have read many of your posts across multiple threads, and you are obviously quite knowledgeable -> especially in the coding Department!
Are you sure it's going to install?
Once you Root it or various other custom changes the updates will not install.
It checks if you were tampering with the phone and will deny the update.. even if you can download it.
Thanks for the kind words but i am not sure off hand unless i search around.
One thing you try doing is search online etc with the words Blur, Update, Zip, Location
Or if you have a file manager with root you can search for it.
The benefit of the full packages available is they just install on any phone with no checks.
It's also not an update but the full installer.
So i think it's possible you may download an update with patches.
So it will see what you had before and patch those files.
Which could make saving & using the update again later problematic
..especially if you root !
If you upload it publicly we can check and see if it's a full install or a patch by looking at updater-script probably.
If i were you i would keep tabs on the Firmware repositories to see if the Wind package gets uploaded.
Then you will have a full install you can use coming from most others and with the security checks removed.
If you have something that can search your system files installed you can try searching for something that
will probably have Blur in the file name and be a flashable zip file.
If you have TWRP installed i think you can just load that and look around with the Built-In File Manager.
I am eating lunch so i might look on the web soon and check back here.. good luck.
Sorry i have not done it before so maybe someone who has can speak up or you can find one of their topics here.
The OTA update file is in the device main memory in data/data/com.motorola.ccc.ota/app_download
Thanks hedimahf i will save that for future reference.
Also lenigma1too i am pretty sure if you rooted your phone then you can not install that update.
Those type of updates are risky for us that customize our phones.. be careful.. make plans to fix it ahead of time
Unless my phone was stock (not rooted) with the default recovery and an original factory locked bootloader
i myself would not even attempt to install the update.
Google it and see the many people talking about BootLoop problems
I bet there is also little difference between Wind, Rogers or Telus aside from a couple small APK's and the Modem data stuff.
If all three have the same radio band support then i wouldn't worry too much about which one to use.
Although you may end up struggling to get your phone calls and text's etc working again if you switch like that.
The Telus one i tried just had 1 extra APK the "My Telus" app and a shortcut to it on the phone.. i uninstalled it with ease.
Other than that i did not see ANY other app's installed that were not standard on the USA/EU retail versions etc
EDIT:
Oh and the BootLogo was like on Lollipop but slightly more blue.
And the Boot animation was new too.. Marshmallow Telus has "Stitches World" video.
The default wallpapers and the collection of them were like on Lollipop too.
EDIT:
My point was the Telus firmware only had "branding" with that one app.
Otherwise the word Telus does not show up anywhere really.
Also i tend to compare packages so i am keeping my eye out so i can see what is different.
If you want i can PM you if i run across Wind version.
Can this be insstalled on a stock 5.1 xt1528? if so how? thanks

I don't think you understood what this topic was about.
He was asking how to capture an OTA update.
Didi you read what was said?
The needed flashing method?

They are intended to used with RSDLite or ADB.
They are found on the big Firmware topic(s) here. (first post over there for links)
You should check out the discussion going on for help with that on those topics for best information.
Putting Firmware from on model onto another may break your ability to make phone calls
and then you would have to try and fix it somehow and it starts to get complicated.
Which is why those other topics are so valuable.. good luck.
I repeat the 2 zip's mentioned are NOT flashable-zip's. (they are just a normal zip file for storage)

A new OTA rolled out for many users.
I found it in root /cache
I am working on restoring my phone to stock and applying it.
I don't see anyone making a non-sign firmware package so..
EDIT:
I got it installed now.. it says Patch Level DEC 1st 2016 (instead of February)
System version version 24.71.4
I guess i have to re-apply a ton of changes now
