Thanks for the prompt reply, I updated defy as you said but I didn't wipe cache,dalvic and still its working fine. Do I really need to wipe and what is the significance of doing so??

[Q] I want to downgrade from this rom.

First, I'm sorry about my bad English.
I had troble when I applied CM9 12/7 Rom, so I restored from clockworkmod recovery, but it doesn't work!
That's why I have been flashed SBFs till now.
And I could boot my defy, but I noticed that I applied some weird Rom.
It is

What can I do?
I want to use CM7/MIUI or some other roms
Help me.
try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14762402&postcount=143
i didn't try it, just found it in the forum
im on the same boat.
did it work?
Look in the cm9 bug report thread I'm sure there are links and instructions for it. You have to flash cm7 kernel then do nandroid or reflash cm7.

I cant quiete figure out what you're trying to tell me Oo
so i guess you can downgrade from cm9 to ms2ginger but not to cm7? oO
im currentliy switching a lot between cm9 and cm7 so you should just go into cwm and wipe everything, install cm7 wipe again and thats it...
i dont know if you really have to wiupe twice, but thats the way i do it and it works perfectly

please post a link to the cm7 you were using. i'm thinking you used the wrong gapps. cm9's gapps doesn't work for cm7. you need to use the gapps for cm7. usually you can get cm7 gapps from the link in the first post of cm7 thread. like here:

go down to the bottom of the first post and click on "latest google apps".

[Q]How to install CM7.2 on Defy

I'm currently on the latest CM7.1 nightly but when I tried to flash the cm7.2 nightlies which are for the defy+, I got stuck at the M logo. I then flashed my old 7.1 and now it's working again. Can someone tell me what I did wrong? Also, I didn't erase data, just cache.
I think that's because defy+ uses another kernel , so when you flash cm7.2 you still having froyo kernel , i think if you flash the cm9 kernel over cm7.2 it will work! But i 'm not sure
Motorola Defy CM7.1-11 OC 1GHz
Can you link me to both cm7 and cm9 kernels?

I packed the two different kernels into clockwork flashable packages.
1. Flash either a nightly or restore a nandroid.
2. Flash either CM7_Kernel-signed.zip or CM9_Kernel-signed.zip; depending on what you've installed.
3. Reboot.
CM7_Kernel-signed.zip
CM9_Kernel-signed.zip

I tried those .Zips and they didnt work for me.
What I ended doing is restoring Boot/devtree using CWM from a Walter 2.3.6 rom and it worked
Let me get this right, first I need to flash CM7.2 and then I need to restore boot and devtree?
EDIT: Thanks leonardojegigzem. It worked!

CM72 for DEFY+ didn't get camera working for now.
Any idea when it'll be fixed or if it'll ever be fixed?
Why don't you try the CM7.2 Nightlys for Defy and not for the +?

Sucks, because this ROM is really good.

I guess because the ones for Defy+ are more recent. Newer = better.

You should try CM7.2 rom for the device you possess i.e. Defy. :good:
Just install cm7.2 for defy (not +). If you want to flash the defy+ version, you will have to install gb kernel and battery fix.

[Q] Some quick questions thanks

1. My defy has stock froyo and I flashed it to cm7. Now I'd like to try cm9 or cm10, do I need to flash sbf or sth?
2. I saw in cm10's thread in which it gives gapps. If I flash cm9, can I use the gapps it provided in the cm10 thread?
3. My current cm7 is quite buggy and slow, cm9 and cm10 should be better?
Thanks.

Just wipe your data, cache and dalvik cache.
Install the CM10 ROM, then flash the updates.
Wipe cache and dalvik cache.
You are done! No need to do anything else. You are safe.
And Quarx CM10 is awesome!
You can use it daily.. and with the battery fix.. it will be too good.
Thank if I was helpful.
Cheers

[Q] Nexus 4 ROMs

Hi,
I flashed PA 3.95 yesterday but I can't see some of the options that I saw on youtube.
Maybe I need to install something else or it just not in PA?
If I won't find the others options I'll flash other ROM so I want suggestions for a stable feature packed and fast ROM.
Thanks in advenced

What options? Most of the customisation options for PA can be found in the Hybrid settings where you can customise almost everything.

I would suggest Slimbean 4.3 or wait for Carbon rom. Both are good.
Why not CM10.2 if you want a stable ROM?

If you are on 4.2.2 factory reset first otherwise skip this step.
rest is alright.. also flash the latest bootloader and radio from PA thread first post.. z20i is the latest bootloader and .84 is the latest radio.
very imp after flashing and wiping is done before rebooting FLASH SUPERSU V1.51 so that you wont have any root issues.. Done.
