Hi, first of all sorry for creating an entire thread for this but really I had to.
The thing is one of my friend owns this device and he has it running on Froyo, and he wanna upgrade it to Gingerbread. Now I am quite sure that's it's possible but I never read topics here, so can't be sure.
So I am requesting Defy mates who already pushed theirs to GB from Froyo to please mention the process/guidance for me, I need it my tomorrow.
Even if it's just as simple as an Odin flash also then please mention it. You know as it's not my device thus I've to be more than 100% sure.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.

Hi.
I am currently own a Samsung Omnia and I am planning to flash with custom Win6.5 ROM.
Before I do that I would like to backup my original ROM just in case anything happen I able to revert back as what I had right now.
My questions:
1) Is there any ROM Dump application available to do so for my original ROM backup?
2) Edit: There is NO better ROM. You need to test and read the feedback and decide for yourself
I know my questions are somewhere in the forum but there are thousands of them I hope someone kind enough to help me over here. Thanks in advance.

Hi Ameet,
Thanks for editing my thread.
I am not expert like u which I able to identify which custom rom is stable or good for my phone by reading through thousands of thread over the forum. To me, all look the same and I do not know where to start. I know there is not prefect ROM available for every phone or everyone but I do highlighted as I am using Samsung Omnia and I hope someone using the same phone as me able to advise me that this ROM is much better or that ROM is for HTC and so on.
This is the reason i post this thread as I need help from someone expert like u to guide ppl like me, maybe you can just highlight a keywords that I need to search.
I thought the main reason of this forum to guide newbie for better understand on their phone or applications and has fun with it.
I am sorry if I duplicated this thread with same questions somewhere in the forum.

Hello guys,
sorry for probably not having searched long enough, but there is just a mass of threads to dig through...
A friend of mine has the Motorola Atrix and I want to help him upgrade it to the latest rom version, plus root the device... so I was wondering what method to use and which rom etc?
Myself I own a Samsung Galaxy i9000, so I know how many different roms exist for each device lol.. but no clue about the atrix (yet).
My friend is visually impaired and in order to change the display dpi we need to have the phone rooted.
Hope you can point me in the right direction so I don't have to spend too much time researching about this atrix.
Try either of the links,

For custom rom, try GingerMod 2.3.6 #7, best ROM i ever used, runs so smooth and better battery life...

Thanks man!
That gingermod rom looks nice, unfortunatly it doesn't seem to support german. (forgot to say that my friend doesnt understand english so well and thought roms would usually always support german lol)
So are there any good with german language anyone can recommend? Preferably with Motoblur, or does motoblur get f*cked up by dpi changes?
Hi,
First off, apologies if this question has been asked before! I've been searching the forum/web for days trying to find a full guide to help me upgrade so that I don't brick my tablet as I'm a bit nervous about it (I've only done this once before).
Does anyone have/Can anyone point me towards a guide that will help me go from Taboonay 2.2 to Taboonay 3.2 (or to any other ICS ROM)?
I have the media (A500-b6.zip and 3G-9.img which I believe is the Kernel), but I have no idea where to start. I've seen Civs guide, but I'm not sure if that applies to me.
Also happy to take recomendations on ROMS (I've chosen Taboonay because I had 2.2 with the my last and only previous manual flash but I know Vache has now unfortunately stopped developing)
Any help is much appreciated, I really want to get a new ICS ROM on there but want to make sure I dont end up with a really expensive and shiny door stopn as a result!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Expertises,
I just find this wonderful forum. But I do not know much about smartphone. I would like to upgrade my phone to Jelly Bean from the official version android 2.2.2. My phone has not been rooted. Do anyone advise me how to upgrade my defy?
I bought my defy in Hong Kong.
Thanks so much!

Here's the All-in-one guide for Defy http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982 Read though this and have search the QA thread for questions you may have. Chances are they were already answered by someone and would save you the effort of starting a new thread each time.
My advice - try to go through the posts by user having problems while rooting or flashing a ROM, that way you'll learn what NOT to do... once you understand the process and have enough confidence, you can go ahead and flash JB.
Dudes, i have a problem with downgrade my Defy! I don`t know how to do this, because i read that i must do some operations but nowhere read the proper way which i can use(it has a lot writen about this but not exactly). I attach the picture to my Defy information. Sorry for the question which is discussed a lot but i do not understand (programs, consistency of actions). I wont to downgrade to 2.2.2., and don`t know which type i must put in, I`m from Bulgaria? Thank you previously!
