Help! Bricked Defy+ - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My defy+ was rooted and was working fine on CM9 quarx build but then I tried to install 4.5.2-109_DHT-22-kernel for battery fix and there went my defy+!
It stuck on:
bootloader
09.10
err:A5,70,00,00,23
battery ok
ok to program
connect USB
data cable
My stock rom details are:
45.0.2310.MB526.ASIARETAIL.EN.03
4.5.1-134-DFP-231
As I understand, I need to flash official SBF but I am not getting the same matching the above phone information.
Please guide me urgently what I need to do and which SBF I need to flash to make my phone work!
P.S: I have (had!) the latest defy+ versions available in India

Just flash the same sbf version mentioned by you, it'll be fine. If it gets stuck on boot logo, go to stock recovery and wipe data.

Hope this will work!

Yes it will! You can only flash 231x roms as you are on BL7.

Now I will go back in flashing CM9 Quarx build.
I am following this thread's instructions:

Here it is written to flash the battery fix kernel but it bricked my phone! Any pointers on what to do here?

There is no need to flash a battery fix if you are flashing CM9/CM10 builds by Quarx. You only need it if you are flashing Epsylon's builds.

that's right, battery fix for red lens defy only

But then battery of defy+ on CM9 drains out anyday even after closing apps, wifi when not in use. Any pointers?

Install CPUSpy and see if your mobile is going to Deep Sleep or not. No Deep Sleep could be a possibility for battery drain.

Same thing is happening with me.. I have installed CM9 and then CM10 in both cases battery of my defy+ drains out very fast at a rate of (6% to 10%) per hour... I had installed CPU spy and deep sleep % is 74%.

Probably the one you tried was just corrupted hehe, good to see you got it sorted.
And yeah, the special Eclair SBF wont work since all these new Defy+ Roms come with CG6, and that one is CG5.

Hi, ace, I had a 2.3.6 Defy+ and got screwed too, by flashing a 2.3.4 custom ROM without being aware of the locked bootloader / no-downgrade lock.
Please, where did you find stock ROM / sbf file for 2.3.6 Defy+ ? I need it but can't find it
EDIT: nvm. I found it myself =)
Hi guys, apologies for flooding other threads as well

You need not downgrade! Just download nandroid back up of MS2ginger 2.1. Boot into recovery, full data wipe/cache, davik, and restore system+data,boot,devtree and recovery. !! Reboot !!
To upgrade to MS2ginger 3.0, boot into recovery, wipe cache/dalvik and restore system only.

No You cant install it directly. Because it contains only system partition and is meant for upgrade from 2.1.
Install 2.1 first then 3.0 system partition restore.. Just an additional step.

I installed it directly from cm7. In the original release thread there is no word about downgrading it first to 2.1 . Now my Defy is bricked
Alright you realy have to install 2.1 first. Works for me now.

Don't worry, walter doesn't respond to my PMs about DFP-188 and DFP-231 either.
Do you have kernel from 2.2 rom or 2.3 rom?
Oh and btw tell me your cwm version that you have right now in cm7. If you have v4.x.x.x, you cannot change directly to ms2ginger. If you have v5.x.x.x it should work fine.
Hi.
I am currently on android 2.3.6 ROM ( nandriod backup) by adi4motion. my defy has green lens. can someone explain how to install walter rom on greenlens defy. I tried to read many times but its very confusing to understand for someone like me...
Any help would be appreciated.
when i wanted to go from miui to ms2ginger it didnt work but after i flasht an original rom and then ms2ginger it worked like a charm - so i think thats the best way if something doesnt work

I m also on same ROM and now want to install MS2Ginger. Can I directly restore nanodroid backup via CWM? will it work?
Installed
Finally after 2 days, thrice flashing full SBF, I was able to install ms2ginger
here, what I did? (specifically for Defy with green lens)
1. Flashed full SBF (froyo kernel)
2. Installed Pikachu Edition 2.2.10
3. went to CWM and followed all the instruction given in MS2Ginger - Android 2.3.6 thread
run 2nd-init (voldown on blue LED)
Go to "Recovery"
Go to "Latest or Stable or Custom Recovery"
"wipe data and cache"
Go to "Backup and Restore"
Go to "Advance Restore"
Select "MS2Ginger3.0"
"restore system"
Go to "install zip from sdcard"
"Install "MS2Ginger-Greenbread.zip" via install zip" (only for defy with "green" soc camera and froyo kernel)
reboot.
run 2nd-init (voldown on blue LED)
Go to "System"
Go to "Overclock"
increase VSel3 to 58 (GREENBREADMOD-froyo kernel installed)
reboot
Booting up can take a while, max is about 10 minutes.
Charge your phone to 100% and keep it charging for min 1.5 hour after.
Done

Do you flash defy or defy plus? since motoginger has gb kernel you have to flash defy + build or defy build together with latest froyo kernel.
Did you make a factory reset?
Please post whats steps did you performed?
Which Defy do you have Normal Defy or Defy+?
Did you wipe CAche and Dalvik Cache?
Which Kernel you were using?

Tell me what SBF you flashed.
And you said you have red lense and used froyo kernel. I guess that's why you have problems. You should have used GB kernel
You will need to follow this thread, first post strictly and put attention to where its written red lense and perform the correct actions.
But before that in order to get your phone up again you will need to flash some GB rom, but again, i need you to tell me which SBF's you flashed so far??

[Q]Issue.. With SBF flashing and bootloader version.. Help...

I have defy+ (MB526)..
It was on stock 2.3.6 when i brought it. I was using CM10 by Quarx recently..
I Flashed bootmenu1.0.4+CWM5.0.3.1+modules.zip this morning and now phone is stuck on MOTO logo... if i go into bootmenu, i can't go in recovery.. What can i do? I have the backup of my previous working config.. but from where can i flash it????? I tried flashing via install update.zip in motorola recovery but got and error "Signature verification failed"..
I searched a lot... got many threads telling how to flash SBF and all but i don't know my bootloader version, and one of the thread said if i flash SBF of wrong bootloader version my phone will be bricked.. I don't know my build version..
As i can't get my phone to boot, i can't find my build version to know which bootloader version i have...
When i go into bootloader by pressing vol up + power button i get this message:
Bootloader
09.10
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
Searched but I can't figure out if i have bl6 or bl7.. and then which SBF to flash.. I don't want to downgrade below 2.3.6..
SBF's i found:

You're probably on BL6
Dude if you bought your DEFY+ about 5-6 months back, you're probably on 4.5.1-134-DFP-132 or 1321, which is BL6....
Try flashing 4.5.2-109_DHT-25 coz its kernel apparently has better battery life.
If that doesn't work, flash 4.5.1-134-DFP-132.
That'll definitely work.

When you flash an SBF file, what you actually flash is a STOCK MOTOROLA FIRMWARE.
So, no, it is not rooted. But why is that important? You can root both bl6 and bl7.
And what the the hell did you mean with "DHT-25 also can't run CM7??" All the DEFY+ firmwares contain Gingerbread kernel. You can use custom ROM's on absolutely and and every of them, it doesn't matter. Some people say that they get better battery life with one or another, put am not really sure about that, never checked.
So, first - stop panicking.
Second - read more in the future.
Third - don't start panicking again

Check the date of the post - December 2011. There were no DEFY+ (Gingerbread) builds back then, that was the problem.
After you flash it, it won't boot, you'll get a bootlop. To fix this just boot into stock recovery and do a data wipe, all fine after that!
Just for the record, all the DEFY+ sbf's are available here - http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php

[Q] Downgrading Defy BL7

Dear All Good Evening,
I have green lense defy (MB 525). Accidently I have flashed defy plus full sbf ( probably non downgradable ). I have tried many 2.2 Froyo SBF roms but all nothing has been worked out for me. Now my defy is on sbf of defy plus in which Camera is not working, Although I am able to root BL 7 & I am on CM9. Is their any hope to either BL7 based froyo sbf or any method to downgrade from BL7.
Please Help.... And Best of Luck ....:good:
Hi, sorry noway. Motorola must open the bootloader but theu like to be stupid.

Try latest CMX with custom kernel - that may solve the camera problem. Battery charging is working for you?

Dear All Good Evening,
I have green lense defy (MB 525). Accidently I have flashed defy plus full sbf ( probably non downgradable ). I have tried many 2.2 Froyo SBF roms but all nothing has been worked out for me. Now my defy is on sbf of defy plus in which Camera is not working, Although I am able to root BL 7 & I am on CM9. Is their any hope to either BL7 based froyo sbf or any method to downgrade from BL7.
Please Help.... And Best of Luck ....:good:

It was astonishing for me, because I always thought, without changing the Kernel we never would be able to recognize the green lense. But with this CUSTOM ROM I can use my kamera like nothing happened. When you flash this Rom through CWM, be patient, when you reboot after flashing. It needs a long time to finish first booting. Just wait until you can see the regular Welcome screen.
Link to the Rom:

Greetings from joma227 with DEFY 525 green lense and full flashed with dfp231 (BL7). I dont need downgrade any more.
Thanks a lot to Quarx.:laugh:

Funny thing is, that bootmenu/recovery recognizes battery status but Android system wont.

i made the same mistake and have bl7 on my green lense defy. unfortunately, when ein try to install quarks rom cm10 for 525 or also 526, after the update the defy only boots to the red m, not showing any animations after that an d freezing. i can reach the standard motorola boot recovery (by pressing volume down), but it doesn't reach the blue led for the custom recovery.
any ideas or tips?

Reflash stock bl7 sbf and rooted bl7 sbf. You can't downgrade due to eFuse which prevents you downgrading bootloaders. Then install Defy 2nd init 2.3 (latest version) and put Quarx CM 10 on the root of sd card.
