[Q] DEFY without signal after brick! PLEASE HELP ME! - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi, first i'll introduce myself..
I'm Lucas Lo Faro, from Buenos Aires, Argentina, I'm a java developer and an Android fan.
i think i'm having a problem with the baseband in my defy plus.
i use to have a defy (with froyo 2.2) and now a i have a defy plus with 2.3.4 and accidentally downgraded it to froyo 2.2 when i flashed the standart sbf of my old phone..
so i read a lot here and finally flashed the famous chinese firmware (2.3.6) to unbrick it..
and then i installed the MS2Ginger 4.0 rom but i cannot get any signal..
My issue is:
when i use the baseband switcher v4.0 i get this error:
"unable to detect your baseband configuration, it's possibly damaged. reset to default?"
so i renamed this directory: system/etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default
(as i read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1203297)
and used the baseband switcher v4.1 as i read in a post here.. but it still doesn't work..
any ideas?
please help meeee!
thx in advance..
i'm in Argentina and my service provider is Personal..
i don´t know what to do..
i thought it may be some rom incompatibility but it seems i cannot change the rom anymore.. because it would brick again..
thank you!

Stock Sbf
Try flashing the stock sbf again. Then root it, and flash a custom rom..maybe it'll work then

Have you tried to select "Claro" instead of "Personal" yet? remember the baseband switcher doesn't work if you select Personal.

This worked for me OP.Restore to 2.1,flash .52 bb and then install your custom ROM.
thats not right. If you want baseband .52 then you must flash Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.A.0.504. If you flash or have Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.2.A.0.24, then you'll have no signal when you apply baseband .52 patch. Therefore in plain English, flash Generic version 2.1update1 build 2.0.A.0.504, then flash baseband patch .52 and then flash the rom you want.

Dudes ever heard of flashing? LOL, Go ahead get a copy of RSD lite 4.9 and up, have worked fine for me (win 7 x64) (or use sfb flash if using linux)
then search this forum for the XPRT sbf that suits your need, (remember, read thoroughly so you wont download the wrong file) and that's all.
RSDlite
REMEMBER Sprint Branded phones may be flashed both with sprint or Boost SBFs, but Boos branded phones will only take Boost SBFs.
The SBF files you may find them here in the forum, just search for sprint 2.3.5 sbf or boost 2.3.5 sbf,

First - it's sbf not sfb. SBF is a file format used in bootloader flasher RSDlite. And what meaning you mean rom? Rom as a part of memory or rom as a new system? Well sbf and rom it's one and the same thing, also rom is internal memory where you can put your files.

Ok, thank you for your answer.
I just wondered difference between sbf and a custom rom, and why custom rom (like CyanogenMod) aren,t in sbf format...
Sbf more easy to use and without root!
Well sorry. My journey and experience grows with every month.
Okay:
SBF file is an ultimate file with all modules and partitions developed by manufacturer. It means that in sbf you have everything - bootloader updates, specific kernel, android system files, motorola drivers, motorola software, radio (GSM) update and many other things that i don't even know that they exist So imagine that you just have device, with nothing, empty - only bootloader. SBF file will make your device live properly.
In case of custom roms, you have only system data, so - no update of bootloader, radio etc. Sometimes (not in motorola), rom package can contains new kernel, but that's all (for our droid kernel's are separate zip's). I think that creation of sbf file is just not necessary, and can be difficult (i think because of motorola closed source of RSDlite and sbf), opposite to installation from recovery(Recovery is power-users creation and it's open source, so everybody can access instructions how he can build rom to work with Recovery - much easier huh?). And if you 've had empty device, with custom rom you won't be able to start.
That's why sbf files are used to unbrick device.
And by the way and warning - Argentinian SBF file contain radio update which corrupt GSM signal. 3G works fine, but 2g (gsm) is terrible, and there's no fix for this, since argentinian sbf contains also bootloader update which means you cannot flash any other sbf than argentinian using RSDLite.

Fresh info based on dettofatto's (and mine) experience - it is possible to have argentinian rom with eu radio. You just have to flash argentinian sbf using sbf_flash under linux.
