hope this will help any of u people
help me
i also have same problem with u,can u give me the link to donwload sbf with bl7
If you can't boot, flash a sbf with the same bl nr than the last one you flashed and just wipe data from stock recovery. You don't have to go to the bl 7 ROM if you didn't already flash one. You even don't have to flash any bl4+ ROM on your normal defy. You can do everything from the bl4 bootloader, just flash the defy + kernel in cwm and afterwards your ROM

i see it too late... i´m sending my phone to official service, is on guarantee, i hope they can change or repair my phone, if not, i be too sad.
Only can wait and if they not repair or change, i have a very nice mini netbook
thanks for help !
You can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486731
Is a new sbf with CG ver 6 and Froyo Kernel, then you can flash any ROM that uses Froyo kernel
EDIT
Sorry, that doesn't work, you flashed the CG ver 7

There should be no problem if you can switch on your bootloader (vol+ + power on).
The solution is in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982 first post, Method 2 (files available, which is not the case in Method 1.).
Do all steps exactly as written. Then you can flash any CM 7 or 9. But probably you have no way back to froyo.
At least I have tesed it.

But I had the same. And this method helped. You loose nothing if try.
Flash with RDSLite (it is eclair with CG5, then exact steps with CM7 and next flash. You will get kind of CM7 (here I also cleared private data from a system which somehow made the internal memory full), which you may stay with or change to any CM, MIUI, WIUI etc.
Ok, so you tried to flash another ROM and couldn't press bootloader. Which sbf did you flash to revive it?
Also read the whole OP of the threat posted before.

and i cant say to my friend to buy me another one because he is poor and i care for him.if nobody can help me,i will send it in service and i'll pay(hope to not be so expensive).anyway thank you all.i will stil wait for u answers.maybe u can think at something.

Hi Guys!
I'm come to Defy from LG GT540, so I don't know much about this phone.
So I just got the phone fom second hand (the person tried to root is, but failed...) and it just don't want to work.
I can't turn it on, just when I plug it into my PC a white LED lights up and that's all. I can't get into CWM or anything BUT I CAN USE RSD LITE!!!!! It recognises the phone and I can flash files to it. I tried couple of times, but NOTHING CHANGED.
I don't know anything about the phone's past (what type of CG of OS was on is)
I would really apprechiate your help Guys!

Why you flashed BL7 SBF? First you needed to test on BL6 or BL5 - if it booted you should have working camera with froyo kernel..... Now your camera will NEVER work with stock roms & cm7..... Last hope is CM10.1/10/9 or MIUI 4 ics with 2ndboot....... Only on 2ndboot roms....

then install 2nd init and CWM and install cm10 or what ever.
Hello guys
Friend of mine gave me Motorola Defy to flash into stock rom as guy from local repair shop told him that this cannot be unlocked to all networks as long as its run Cyanogenmod and there is must to install original stock rom.
I have downloaded stock droid developers in ".sbf" extension and was researching xda in order to find out how to flash it but more I researched more I afraid become to do it.
I have found so many warnings not to downgrade that phone to Froyo, some posts saying not to flash ".sbf" at all but asked you guys for help.
Is there any safe way to reduce possibility of bricking this Motorola to the minimum?
Could someone advise me what should i do in this case? Should I give up flashing?
Helpful informations:
MB525 - on the label under the battery
MB526 - detected by system CM11-20140731-NIGHTLY-mb526
Recovery - TWRP
Thank You in advance for any help provided.

I have flashed my defy many times without any problems, i have used a sbf from this list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537 and kept it as reference in order not to use a downgraded sbf.
Just make sure the defy is fully charged, rsd lite + motodrivers are installed .

Flashing with RSD Lite didn't want to work as program didn't want to discover my phone, found another solution which is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775913
Simple and works 100% even when my phone didn't turn on because wrong sbf, I could flash as many as I wanted to get the working one, which was mb526 2.3.6 version surprisingly
...
But now I need to get this devices rooted and all xda tutorials are about reflashing rooted sbf and installing twrp after that. Could someone advise me how to recognize rooted sbf which will be compatible with mb525??
I have tried framaroot to avoid flashing again but it didn't work unfortunately.

Pre-rooted rom must have "rooted" in their name, framaroot works for me.
