2)getting SFB file for my defy version(INDIA-Mumbai) and how to use it : Only use 2.2.2 SBF. If you flash newer sbf you might not be able to downgrade thereafter.
5)Do I need to root to carryout this process? : This flashing process will bring the phone to factory defaults (Stock) so it will be automatically unrooted. However, you may root again later.

Do you have the RSD Lite and the USB drivers installed. If not then refer to this article:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982
For the SBF file use the following direct link to download the SBF:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt...NFRYORTINT15_P001_A013_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz
[Note: The above SBF is not Chinese which causes the flash burn; it is Taiwanese and safe to flash.]
Download and extract the above file.
1. Launch RSD lite and select the above extracted SBF file;
2. Turn off the phone and remove and replace the battery;
3. Press Volume UP and Power button until you see Bootloader menu;
4. Once its shows the Bootloader menu connect the USB cable to the RSD lite and then start the flashing process;
5. Phone will update the software and once it shows Success you are good to go.
Hope it helps!
Good Luck!!

MS2 reboot only in Bootloader!

Hello,
I have a big problem. I misplaced my MS2 with a customrom Droid 2 installed. after which the phone is stuck at Moto logo, I wanted to flash it with RSD Lite again. But unfortunately it has made ​​all the worse. The screen then remained always black. By accident I found out that the master is always handy in the bootloader if I make the battery clean. the RSD Lite detects it again and then when I want to flash an SBF file he does it without problems. only then if he should make a reboot it ends up back in the bootloader. but i can´t see the bootloader. I know not what to do yet.
can anyone help me?
thank you
greeting
I didn't get quite right the situation but tell me which sbf are you using?
Is it the same android version that was before?
Have you tried pulling off the battery, waited 10 seconds, hold vol + and vol - (or X and arrow up, depending on android version) and powering up to enter the recovery and do a full data wipe? Does it starts normally after that?
Yes, it is the same as before sbf. I've been on it before GB and GB have also flashed.
at the first flash of sbf I'm also in the recovery menu and have a full wipe made ​​but which has unfortunately not have shown anything.
I thought that maybe Customrom a different bootloader has been on it so I downloaded the 70.13 bootloader and flashed.
Since then I have the problem that it only comes into the bootloader, and here again but I have only a black screen.
greeting
sir my advice is redownload your SBF.. maybe it got corrupted. and make sure you choose the right SBF.

Blur_Version.45.0.2310.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03 (2012/01/12)
when the process was complete i was so happy that i fixed my defy but i actually made it worse
now i was not able to root not able to install bootmenu or any thing else this all has happened just last weekend
first i accepted it and thought its better this way

after that i thought that the process is compleate and removed device from usb but it didnt open(blank screen) and
so i tried to open it connecting usb and it didnt open but showed connected in rsdlite and my device showed white led light
since it was heating up i removed the usb and battery from my device and started posting in xda

WANT A ROOTABLE SBF for my defy plus

before wanting to help if u want to know the whole situation what happened then u can see it here

now my problem is that i want an SBF for my motorola defy plus MB256 which is stable, can be rooted , can be upgraded to ics CM9 and with no bugs........since i am only able to flash the SBF of these type
DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231
any other sbf i try is failed
(rsdlite says pass but black screen shows up whith white led)
:crying:
currently i am using DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_BLUR_SIGN_USADEFYEMARAB1B8RTGB005.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRRTGB_P023_A025_M002_Service1FF
also DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231 types are all unrootable and hence i am helpless
Firstly: there is no such thing as CM9 with no bugs (but they are getting better and better). Second: use search option before posting. You're not special. This question has been asked 1000 times.
The black screen when flashing is because you're trying to flash an sbf with a lower codegroup version. You're on level 7. There is no downgrade to any sbf woth a lower codegroup version. Read about it here (search the first post for "downgrade")
You can't use the rooting toolkits because you have bootloader7 (e-fuse "blown" to level 7. The old rooting exploits don't work any more) How to root your build: DFP-188, DFP-231, DFP-2311 BL7 Finally Rooted
Please, guys: I'm not on bl7 myself, so correct me if I'm wrong on anything.

. Don't you see Link is the solution.Or do you somehow assume someone would copy & paste a whole thread here.
I'm again quoting the solution. Just click the thread and read. Its all described there.
PS: Your BL version is decided with the ROM build. CG7 & BL7 are the same thing, the moral of the story is You are on BL7 (Bootloader 7)

Redownload the files. make sure you use both files from the same source(either both CN or both CEE). do a complete wipe from recovery. The error you are getting occurs when you flash an SBF with lower version than you are on but since CG7 is highest till date, this means you can flash those only with a CG7 SBF. I read what you did.
PS: BL7 is rootable by flashing a rooted SBF.Thats what the other thread is about.

yea now i get it i got the error on this step
4. Flash rooted SBF 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN Rooted SBF Part.1, 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN Rooted SBF Part.2 or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SB
it might be because i skipped this step
2. Flash 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE (It doesn't matter what version of this two You flash but it must be the same with version from point 4).
because i thought that i already had DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_BLUR_SIGN
so it might work but it didnt this time ill try the complete process
thank u guys

Dear tusharbhan,
it seems your datacable is too long (it will loss signals if the cable is disfunctional), try it with a very short datacable and use the usb-port which directly connected with the motherboard of your computer.

I don't think the length is the problem (I use an extended cable which is double the length of original)but yes changing the cable or port might do it.

Good you got it rooted (I already told you to keep both files same And its mentioned explicitly at the Root thread)
You need Custom recovery to flash a custom ROM.
Install 2ndInit first
And just be careful before you begin with anything.Never Hurry. Reading carefully what's written won't hurt you. But doing idiotic mistakes just coz you weren't careful will.

You sure everything you posted is correct.!! Better detail things and maintain integrity of your posts. Helping someone is a good thing but a small mistake could end up in disaster.
@OP Here is the link for supported ROMs(see the first post). You can chose any under Gingerbread.
Here is [APP] 2ndInit Read installation instructions carefully. At this step you can screw your phone.
What a Custom recovery and 2ndInit is, you'll find it here.
PS: Since the problem(rooting) you started this thread for is solved, its better to post your relevant questions in the respective threads and discontinue this one.This makes thing confusing and hectic for users.

Unroot Motorola Defy Plus

Hello Everyone,
I recently rooted my defy plus having BL7 using the method provided in this forum - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24743292#post24743292. I installed the CM9-NIGHTLY-120626-Defy+ ROM in my device, everything is working fine (I have attached the screenshot of my phone details). Now, I am having problem with my accessories, since the phone is in warranty I have to give my phone to service center. However, I am not able to find the proper method for unrooting the phone again and installing the official firmware which is provided by Motorola in India.
Please guys help me, warranty is getting expired on 10th August. So, I need to replace the defective accessories.
There is no known method to unroot BL7 firmware. You need to flash the SBF again. Check out the development section for detailed information on flashing SBF files and links.
Thank You for replying. I have searched a lot, but so far I was able to find only this -
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093352
I don't know what to use.
Well, if you were having BL7, the firmware should have been 4.5.1-134-DFP-231. Do you remember the exact firmware version? For my Defy+ it was 4.5.1-134_DFP-1321 AsiaRetail http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386942 which was BL6.
I would suggest not to go ahead flashing SBF to just avail warranty of accessories as flashing SBF is quite risky and can result in bricking of phone.
yes, it was 4.5.1-134-DFP-231.
There would have been something beyond the version number too. Like for me it was AsiaRetail.en
[A]
I did come across a SBF that is rootable.
This worked like a charm for my Defy+ Red Lens

I don't remember it exactly was it was, but is their any problem in installing asia retail version. I have doubt, either it was [email protected](something like that) or asia retail.
@anandcs - thank you for providing the link. Is it OK to give the mobile phone to service center with that ROM installed?
The problem is you need to flash the exact ROM which was preloaded with the phone. In the SBF links above, there are no Asia Retail versions available for firmware 4.5.1-134-DFP-231.
So, how can I get the asia retail version for the defy plus?
Can I use the asia retail sbf file from this post? Is this sbf official stock rom provided by Motorola?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1495099
Yes that should be good I guess.
I successfully flashed my phone using the sbf provided in that forum. Now the phone look like as it was when I purchased it first.
OK this is the tricky part. There are two firmwares (SBF's) in that post. If you plan to give the phone to a service center then flash only the first one. The other SBF is a root able one.
From my personal experience your phone should be as good as new with the first SBF flash.
Let me know how it goes.

Hello
Did you flash the sbf file whose link is given by you in your above post to take your phone back to stock? Did it work successfully and were you able to claim warranty on your device?
The reason I am asking is , I tried to root my phone yesterday and it looks like something has gone wrong in the rooting. While the phone is not bricked it is not able to connect to the network on a 2g selection in the "Wireless&Netowrk --> Mobile Network-->Select Network" selection. It only works if the selection is changed to Automatic. The details of my device are:
Build # 4.5.1-134_DFP-231 & Android ver 2.3.6
Before rooting I had checked the sbf file name in my device and it was the same as in this file name.
Now if you can confirm it worked successfully for you I will use it to unroot my phone.If you can please list the exact process you followed while going back to stock it will be very helpful for everyone from India who gets into trouble with this device and this sbf and build.
Thanks

Yeah, it was successful, I faced no problem while doing that. However, I didn't went to the service center since it is not located in my city and the problem was not too big, it was just a headphone issue.

Thanks for responding. This is very good news, for me atleast.
So the sbf file is the correct one. That is a very big relief.
Can you please correct the procedure to be followed from the list below:
Step1=Boot into factory data reset ---> Wipe Data & Wipe Cache -- Is this required? If yes does this need to be done once or twice?
Step2=Open RSDLite
Step3=Boot in to Bootloader
Step4=Connect Phone to PC via USB
Step 5= Flash SBF through RSDLite
ps: Does the phone need to have USB debugging activated in Applications-->Development-->USB Debugging?
If any of the steps is incorrect or not required just correct the procedure for me.
Thanks.

Yeah you can go ahead, I also did the same. First I wiped data and cache and then I wiped cache only, so as to ensure that everything has been wiped. I do not have much idea about USB debugging if it is necessary to enable it or not, since after wiping the data and cache, phone is automatically put in to the factory reset mode and I don't think USB debugging is turned ON by default. However, in my case before wiping the cache and putting it into the recovery mode USB debugging was enabled.

Original .sbf

Hi,today I have flashed original Motorola .sbf ,I downloaded it from here. It is 3.4.2_179-002, Retail Central Europe version. Now,after flashing it with RSD Lite the phone does not boot. There is no even Motorola logo at the start,nothing,its dead. How can I start the phone with this original .sbf? I want to have original froyo on the phone,and I know how to get back to CM10 but im not interesting in that now.
Thanks.

markos807, did the SBF flashing process complete successfully and did u get the message "Please manually reboot phone" in RDSLite window?
Did u verify the MD5sum of the downloaded SBF against the MD5sum given in the download page to check if the downloaded SBF file is not corrupted?
Are u still able to go to the Bootloader by pressing VOL UP+POWER button when the phone is switched off?
Only if u provide the above information, I can suggest what can be done next.
1.I dont remember what was the message,but I think it wasnt "Please manually reboot phone",but it was done,some other message saying its done
2.How to do that?
3.I cannot go into bootloader and when I connect a phone via usb to the PC the RSD Lite recognizes it so I can flash some other verified sbf.
Thanks for trying

Might I suggest, pull your Defy battery, replace it, do not attempt to get into bootloader, Leave it off. Just plug it in with usb after booting up RSD lite and see if connects on it's own. Sounds like a bad flash. I've connected that way numerous times.

1. Even I dont remember the exact message But I remember that it asks us to reboot the phone manually.
2. If the SBF which u are using is corrupted while downloading, it may lead to bad flash. U can google and download and use any of the md5sum checking tools. I use winmd5 application(I'm using Windows in my laptop), which is easy to use and it has UI unlike some other md5sum tools which have to be run through command line.
3. If RSD Lite recognizes ur phone, then try flashing the SBF once again. But ensure that the SBF is not corrupted as mentioned in point 2. If ur SBF is corrupted, try downloading it again. There are chances for a file to get corrupted while downloading. That is the reason why md5sum is mentioned in the download page to verify the file after download.
Winmd5 app says "Matched!". That means it is good?
Yes, if the MD5sum matches it means that the SBF file is not corrupted. U try flashing the same SBF again and see if it works.
@ markos807: Were u able to flash SBF successfully? I would like to know if ur defy is working fine now
Gingerbread (BL7) back to Froyo?
Did you already flash a Defy+ ROM with Gingerbread?
From a BL7 ROM there is no way back to Froyo. BL7 doesn't support that.
When I wanted to go back to froyo, I was flashing this sbf: JDGC_U6_2.13.0 China Unicom Thread/Download !!!BL6 kernel !!!
And that broke my flashlight! And because of that I want to go back to other official froyo sbf to see will the flashlight work. Do you know any other fix for the flashlight? Anything please?
Also, I am flashing same sbf second time now, will post the results.
Edit: Cannot boot the phone with any .sbf downloaded from here. The only .sbf that I can flash and boot the phone is JDGC_U6_2.13.0 China Unicom and that one broke my flashlight.

Mate, as you flashed BL6 sbf then you are stuck with BL6 and no way back to froyo other than chinese one.
Your flashlight could be burnt out - in such a case only moto service can help
What do you mean you cannot boot with any sbf from walter79 thread? Have you tried all of them? (You shouldn't). Or only froyo ones?
If you tried only froyos, then you can flash gingerbread BL6 to check your flashlight
And have you tried wiping data and cache from stock recovery? Is it accessible with power + volume down?
No, I cannot acess stock recovery. I have tried only froyo ones. Can you give me the link for that BL6 GB, I`ll flash it tomorrow because I really want to fix my flashlight.

Try any from a range 4.5.1-134_DFP-125 up to DFP-161. Higher are usually BL7, lower are BL5, so no use to flash
Link to the sbfs
I have succesfully boot up a phone with this sbf: DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-125_GR_SIGN.. but my flashlight is still not working. The camera is not working at all.

Well, I suppose you've burnt your flash unfortunately with chinese froyo.
Your camera will not work with GB ROMS. It's normal. but it was you who flashed BL6 ROM on your green defy
You have to go to CM10 2ndboot builds to have your camera working again.
For flash I suppoose only moto service can help
