I was messing with the phone trying to do stuff and long story short I cannot boot up for nothing! Here's what I get:
- I turn it on, and all it says is:
FAILED TO BOOT 1
STARTING RSD MODE
Everything else is BLACK SCREEN
What I have tried so far.
Used rsd lite 4.9 and installed the SBF FILE:
OLYFR_U4_1.2.6_SIGNED_OLPSATTSPE_P012_HWolympus_1g_1FF.sbf
It reads and tries to flash but the atrix reboots on the SAME screen mentioned above. And the RSD on my PC says FAILED FLASHING PROCESS!
What more can I do guys/girls?
Is it bricked? Whoever shows me how to get it running I will gladly paypal you some money for your time. Thanks!

You could start by removing external sdcard if you have one in there then try RSD flash back to 1.2.6.

Just downloaded RSD LITE 5.0 and it worked.
thanks cyberpunk for responding!
Should maybe not be in the dev forums???
sigh... This is why companies are making it harder to root.
Moved to proper forum.
Hello guys,
my friend gave me his defy+. I successfully rooted+flashed a new JB rom on it. He was experimenting something, he started to flash another rom on it, and now the device wont even boot. It does nothing, only it shows a white led when it is connected to the PC. The RSD lite recognizes the device.
Is there any solution to fix this or it should fly in the trash?
edit:
I flashed this rom
DEFYPLUS_U3_4_5_1_134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed
now the device starts, gets to the Motorola red logo, but then it goes to a black screen, where are these informations.
Bootloader 9.10
Err 46,69,35,00,27
battery OK
Transfer mode USB
Follow this procedure make it work

Hi,
I'm too facing same issue, Did you found any solution ?
Issue is even when connecting to PC phone is not getting detected hence I could not flash it.
Hi, I acquired my Defy+ from a previous owner who couldn't tell me anything about the phone's software.
When I try to turn the phone on, after the motorola logo, I'm stuck at this message:
Bootloader
9.10
Err:A5,69,35,00,27
Battery OK
OK to program
Connect USB
Data Cable
I tried flashing it to a few sbf's, but none of them worked for me.
Please, I would appreciate any help on solving this issue.

You must install motorola drivers first and after that try if RSD recognize the connection. If yes you can flash a BL7 sbf. Enjoy.

motorola drivers are installed on my PC and RSD recognizes my mobile.
could you give me a link to the mentioned sbf?
The problem started when i tried to downgrade my defy to CM7.2 from CM10.
First i was getting a problem of "Encryption unsuccessful". i browsed through a lot of threads and decided to use Rsdlite to flash a sbf file.
i tried flashing the Asia retail version.It showed 'Passed" in Rsdlite but i got stuck at the Motorola logo.
i again browsed through a number of threads, watched a few videos, and decided to flash a sbf "DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed" (i now realise this was fatal for my phone). (till this point the "SW Update" screen on phone showed the bootloder version to be 9 or 10 (dont exactly remember)). The phone just died after this. It wont start . No Motorola logo, No Recovery Mode, No bootloader mode. It just showed white led when connected to the pc and was not recognized by Rsdlite. i realised that the problem might be Empty Battery.
After this i tried the McGyver method and finally my phone was recognized by the rsdlite.
but now during the SW Update phase the screen doesnt show any bootloader version. and the end result is the same. White light at top, phone doesnt start, no M logo,,,, just a dead brick... another problem is that even after i put in a new battery, rsdlite will only recognise the phone only when i use the McGyver fix.
Please help me..... give me a working sbf file..
i dont want to just give up on this incredible phone...please help....

Do you have Defy or Defy+? If you have Defy (which lens?), then you just made your phone BL7. Follow this thread and report back - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1889325.
When downgrading from CM10 to CM7.2, always remember to format system and data to ext3 first! I made the same mistake (had the same problem as you), then I followed the above guide.
When the SW update screen comes up, bootloader version doesn't show normally.

I think you just flashed a bl7 sbf (Defy+) meaning your phone now has Defy+ firmware with green lens. If you've tried everything else and it didn't work, then do that as a last resort. Both CM10 and CM10.1 will work.

To confirm you've gone to BL7, you can try flashing froyo sbf. There will be a bootloader error. If that's the case then follow that thread and CM10/10.1 or MS2Ginger are the only options I think.

Yes, the camera won't work since it is green lens. The sbf you flashed in the beginning (DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed) made your Defy into Defy+. That sbf was meant to be for Defy+ users.
You cannot go back to Defy. Since your phone is now BL7, you cannot go back to froyo.
So now you can flash MS2Ginger/CM9.1 (by walter79)/CM10/CM10.1 or any 2ndboot ROM. I think you can't install CM7 also.
You can find MS2Ginger,CM10/10.1 ROMs by Googling. Download CM9.1 by walter79 here - http://d-h.st/users/walter79/.
HI, I believe I have the same problem... I tried flashing my defy + with a portuguese version of android 2.3, when I was at 2.3. Now all I have is black screen with white led and it is not recognized by rdslite. As far as I understand I have first charge the battery with McGyver method or other charger, which will make the rdslite recognize the phone, and after that I can flash it with a newer firmware and get it back to life. Is this correct?
Thank you!

Unless your battery is low do not use McGyver. Use it only as a last resort.
You must have tried to downgrade, which is not possible in Defy+ through RSDLite.
Do you know if there is any way to recover my phone? It is not being recognized by rdslite anymore. While rsdlite was recognizing it I tried flashing with JORDN_U3_97.21.51, but nothing happened.

The usual. Update drivers and RSDLite, make sure you are in bootloader mode. If all else fails, go McGyver and get RSDLite to recognise the phone.

Y U FLASH ECLAIR SBF? You happened to find the retarded Eclair SBF that has a CG version of 5. Make sure that you are in bootloader, then make sure that it is really a low battery problem (either the phone doesn't turn on at all, including regular boot, bootloader or recovery) or it says "battery low, cannot program" in bootloader.

From my Experience ::
1. cross your fingers :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
2.Use the Mcgyvor's method to get your phone recognized by rsdlite. (Only as a last resort)
3.After that just follow the procedure in Hotdog's Guide ( 2nd or 3rd reply in this thread)
4.After that your phone will become MB526.
5.flash any ROM designed for both 525 and 526
Cheers..!! :goodYou can treat me If you want..

You're gonna have to wait, buddy. It says right up on the website: "Quit e-mailing me about "no links" lol ..... there was a HDD failure - links are being recovered (will take some time)."
Right now only the 2012 and 2013 phones are up (etc. Droid Razr, Droid Razr HD, Electrify M, Photon Q).
Unless someone can upload the huge-a** file to some file-sharing service, you're out of luck. Sorry. I don't even have the Defy SBFs anymore.

Which SBF did you flash, please?
Hi everybody, recently decided to fix up my old motorola defy. Got it up and running with a new housing, lcd and battery. Decided to flash a custom rom, guess what, phone got bricked.
I'm currently stuck with the motorola log in an infinite loop so i cant use the volume down button to restore via my back up. Tired restore in bootloader mode using rsdlite following the steps from here. But Some how rsd lite doesn't detect the phone. Tried most versions and have installed the drivers repeated but nothing works.
Anybody have any good suggestions as to what i should do? dont really wanna use it as a paper weight. Thanks for reading.
Bump!
