thx but dont work...

Did you see this from the XDA thread about that sbf:
NO DOWNGRADE TO ANY 2.3.6 rom or 2.3.4 or FROYO/ECLAIR and no root if you flash full sbf

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 !

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

defy cm7 stops at google screen

gday, Been trolling site for ages, and now I need help.
I have had cm7 installed for months now, and all was ok until today. I turned the phone on and it stuck at google screen.
I have googled and tried various things all of which I don't understand and have probably made it worse.
If anyone could help me out it would be greatly appreciated.

mrs went and bought another phone, so Im gunna drop kick the defy out into the street.

flash another sbf..
btw if you going to through it then why not donate it to one of the devs as they might use it to experiment on it..

I replied to you in the other thread, if you don't want it I would take it.

Havent given up yet as i would like to give the phone to my son, if i ever get it going again. charging mcguyver at the moment. and thanks for replying fellas I appreciate it because i havent a clue.
ps smeg i have pm'd you but it doesnt seem to be working
Sainyam I have flashed many sbfs and i have made it worse

righto have this sbf flashed and working JDGC_U6_2.13.0.sbf\JDGC_U6_2.13.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNPRCB1B50AA039.0R_JORDANAPCNCU_P017_A042_M006_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
system version 2.13.0.me525.chinaunicom.en.cn
android 2.2.2
kernal 2.6.32.9
build jdgc_2.13.0
dunno if this means anything but bootloader was 9.10
what should i do now

mine is also 9.10
so i am guessing you still have bl4 ..
so try flashing this...
if you dont have Telstra australia mobile..
then let me know...
if it is not installed then try this and then install cm7 on it ....

thanks to the land of smeg,
Phone is up and running,not original but damn close.
I havent done a custom rom because I would probably pick the wrong one an stuff it up again
I will post his directions for anyone else who royally roots their phone like I did.

You need to flash the 3.4.2-179-2 CEE nandroid over your chinese ROM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=123
Then the 3.4.2-179-2 CEE fixed SBF
I can't find a working link for this. If you can't find one either you can make your own by downloading the Full SBF
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts...vice1FF.sbf.gz
and then use SBF Depacker:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11195138
Delete the CG31 and CG39 and that will turn it into a Fixed SBF for you to flash.
Then install CM7 or CM9
make sure you use the CM7 kernel

No worries, glad to help.
This is the solution to downgrade JDGC_U6_2.13.0 Chinese ROM with a BL6 kernel.
Have to use Nandroid/Fixed SBF method as this ROM updates CDT(CG31) and SYSTEM(CG39) to version 6, once a version goes up it can't be put back down, and if you flash a Full SBF of a lower version then the black screen problem will happen, but the Fixed SBF method flashes everything except CDT and SYSTEM (which have lower version numbers) and the Nandroid backup overwrites SYSTEM with the data while still keeping it at "version 6" as this is the minimum.
In future, when flashing ROMs do NOT try to flash ROMs which have higher versions than the Stock SBF if you wish to keep warranty, as even though you have effectively still gone back to that ROM, if the service centre looks carefully they will see that you are on higher Version CDT and SYSTEM which means that you must have been messing around with ROMs.

[Q] i have defy mb525 but i have 2.3.6 from defy mb526.pls help me

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.

now the phone start.the real problem is that i have on it the sbf file the cg7 version.and i dont know if i can downgrade this one.if someone did it pls tell me how so i can try it.thank you a lot.
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.

Cant Put Any Rom Or Any SPF HELP!

hi guys the other day i had my Moto Defy not Defy+ so i wanted to upgrade it i mistakly flashed a Defy Plus SBF every thing is working just fine only the Network Data Is Not Working , and now when ever come to flash a new SBF or a new rom the screen stays black ? so please tell me what i can do ? at least so i can make the network data work i wont mind
ill be thankfull

what the hell, this is the dev section, not q&a!!!
firt rule of xda: post in correct sections!
mod, please shut this thread, and give our friend a manual on how to use this forum!
sent from my jellybean defy...

this is the only working sbf for me right now
DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed

in the general section you will find a sticky thread called all-in-one defy beginners guide, you will find all the info you need there.
second rule of xda: search before posting.
you bricked your phone by flashing sbfs without knowing what they really are.
you should check something: does your notification led turn white when connected to rsd lite (pc)?
and dont play around too much, because your battery will die eventually (the device cant be charged without a functional rom/kernel), and you will have to use the mcgyvers method...
just read everything you find in the thread mentioned above.

sorry, its late, misunderstood you.
have you tried switching basebands?
if you want to stay on stock, you will have to figure out which bootloader version you have (dont know the bl versions of stock roms by heart), and have to choose sbfs according to that.
but if youre up for custom roms, try any 2nd-boot rom of quarx, those should work.
but i cant stress this enough: read the beginners guide first!

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....

flash the sbf

First flash this http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt..._USAJRDNGIBRRTCEE_P022_A022_Service1FF.sbf.gz
After flashing wipedata and cache from stock recovery or else you will stuck on boot animation and wait for some some time it will boot.
Then this flash this to gain root access http://www.mediafire.com/?76z12j1at3etf4j
then install 2nd init and CWM and install cm10 or what ever.
