KANG means nothing but its an Experimental Build (Nightly) .. If u have GB kernel try Epsylon3 CM7 Roms for Defy+ (GB kernel) ..
and regarding KANG if the build is named Addressing Defy or Jordan, then its for Defy.
and if its named addressing GB kernel or Defy+ then its for Defy+ !!

Thanks for the informations I know about epylons3 CM7.2 nightly builds but on his versions the camera doesn´t work 100%! It´s overhead on my defy.. so it doesn´t usable for me

...I´ve tried out the "KANG" version of CM7 and it doesn´t work on the defy+ kernel !
but the headline of kangs thread means that it was also for the defy+. Thats not true!
On my brothers Defy the ROM run very well and smooth!
..I hope i can flash this ROM very soon!

Is it possible to make a "extra" version for the defy+/defy with new kernel ??
Because i get crazy about the new kernel and the nighlty builds (epsylon3/quarx)
for defy+ works very good and fast but the camera is overhead.
I´ve tried to replace the camera.apk from another build, but it doesn´t help me to fix this problem.

i think it just mod the lockscreens,i prefer Ep3 's builds.

If it is given that it is for defy+..then i suppose u need to flash GB kernel along with the ROM [may be that ROM is having Froyo kernel]..try it.. that may work..and right now Eppy and Quarx are working on Defy CM 7.2 & CM9..once the boot loader is unlocked , i think defy+ will have a lot of scope..think they are facing some problem with GB kernel..

You can use Epsylon3 last nighty simply adding those patchs.

Ok! Thanks "elTorres" I´ll try the newest nightly and these patches and look how it work Thanks for all the fast help !

ok, i´ve tried it with the newest nightly (7.2) for defy+
and the two patches from [] AL [] (big thanks!)
-made stresstest, etc., testphotos! and wow it works perfecly!
Cyanogenmod is still a fast, beautiful rom !

Unable to use ICS 4.0.3

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!

[Q] Defy BL7 install CM7 error :(

I'm not really sure about the version numbers :/ Did you select "Latest" and not "Stable" recovery to be installed? You need "Latest"..!
Other than that... You are stuck on bl7 means that you are on 2.3.6, right? I think that official CM7.2 RC is a Froyo ROM. I could be wrong though. And even if it is, it still should flash it normally. (but you would end up being stuck at boot logo..!)
Anyway, Quarx's are the best Gingerbread builds (and latest) - http://quarx2k.ru/cm7-nightly-defy+/
P.S. You've posted in the wrong sub-forum

But the cammera will works (green lens Defy with BL7)? Also, I think he need to change that batt file? Where is it located and what's its name?

Oh, yeah, right, Quarx's Gingerbread builds are meant for an actual DEFY+ so you need the Defy battery fix (you can use the one provided by Auris for CM9, it's the same thing).
I have no idea about the SOC camera and BL7, though :-/ You can flash Froyo (CM7) kernel once you have CWM? Have no idea if it would work :S

the phone is rooted and i have 2nd init on it installed.... what now?
i want my camera and my battery back...
can i install CM 7 ?

[Q] Defy Jellybean CM10 Help!

*Don't respond with comments saying read this or that...
I have read the guides for moto defy mb525 U.S. tmobile and yet i don't understand a thing. I have a bionic and have rooted/flashed/sbf'd before so I have experience but not with this device. I tried understanding from the wiki and beginners guide yet it didn't help me at all. (I'm dumb)
MY Goal: Jellybean CM10 on my Defy
I am currently on froyo 2.2 and I don't understand how to get CM10
I have an original tmobile u.s. defy (Im pretty sure its green lens)
If someone can provide links I can learn:
What should I SBF to?
What should I use to root?
How do I flash cm9 kernel (I heard its the only way to get the CM10 working on a tmobile mb525)
Once I get a recovery I know how to flash and stuff I just want to be guided until I get to clockwork recovery and have the cm9 kernel flashed.
Please help, don't flame....its what makes this community great

Root it with SuperOneClick 1.9 for Defy! it should be somewhere on xda I dont know where use the search function...
Install 2nd INIT it should add cwm

Sorry Sir but its useless to flash CM10(current version) on MB525 coz its being made for MB526(Defy+). Your efforts will be in vein. Why not go for 4.0.4 by Eppy? Latest build is stable as hell!

I read that you can flash CM10 by quark on your green lens defy but of course camera won't work

I got soft reboots. And the current version can't make calls/text.
Go for CM9 its really getting into its groove now

Since you sound new to flashing roms, you shouldn't start off with an alpha rom you have to port, instead, start with an Epsy CM9 or Maniac103 CM7 -- both are stable and a good place to start learning about rom flashing.
***Before you start flashing sbf's, you should read the sbf thread and find an sbf you like that's on the same BL version you're currently on, or if out of warranty, flash a bl6 sbf so you can switch between the GB and Froyo kernels. I'm not going to go into BL versions anymore, but that's one of the most important things you need to learn when flashing Defy roms and sbfs.***
For rooting, I use SuperOneClick 1.9.5. Then just enable non-market apps and install Defy 2nd-Init Recovery, reboot into it, select wipe data\factory reset, then flash cm7 or 9 followed by the appropriate version of gapps. Those steps will soon become second nature, to the point where you can root and flash a custom rom in your sleep.
All the tools and roms can be found by searching the forums. Good Luck and welcome to the wonderful world of custom roms.
