Hello everyone !
This is my first ever post in this forum ,though i have learned alot from this forum .
Few days back i successfully rooted my phone and after that flashed custom rom without having back up of factory Rom but during this process my mobile stuck .
RSD was unable to detect my phone neither i was able to completely charge my battery.
Last day i came across the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=892026
and set up everything as it is shown there.
Successfully flashed ROM UK Retail 2.2.2 Service sbf (Build number: JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_177-003)
http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy
Phone was up but with warning message battery is invalid ,can't charged the battery.
I reflashed the ROm in hope that it will solve my problem but all was in vain .
When battery is fully drained ,i connect my mobile via usb .It boots up successfully but fails to recognize my battery showing a question mark on battery meter.
I can charge my battery via external USB .
Help me please !

Reflash with RSD the bigger sbf 3.43 which you find (177-009). after flashing do a factory reset.

Sorry for being late .
I have flashed every patch but still have the same problem.
Right now i have CM9 kernel 2.6.32.9 .One of the interesting thing i noted is that custom boot loader shows the right battery status but android battery says "unknown 100%" .At first i thought i had green lense but later via defylense app i came to know that i have red lens(it may be erroneous because i have already patched red lens batt fix files) .Few days back i tried dual boot Cm9 and Cm7 but none of them recognized my battery.
Please help me ......

I think that you has flashed a sbf with a not optimal BL (eg. you flashed a BL7 or so). For this kind of problem already exist a good topic.

Motorola Defy MB525 battery unknown
Same problem here. My Defy was working fine until I installed 0404 Quarx build. Then after a few hours installing and setting up my apps back I did a reboot and the got stuck in the Motorola logo until my battery drained off. USB won't recognize the device but I managed to use an universal charger to get the battery running again but again stuck at Motorola logo so I flashed a new rom using RSD. That got my device booting up again but the "Unknown battery" message started showing up whenever I tried to charge. I spent the whole weekend trying new sbf and battery fixes but none fixes the problem. I even got back the previous Quarx build I was using and still nothing. Is there something else I might have missed?

So I kept trying with different SBFs but none of them work and yesterday I changed back to Epsylon's last rom, which was the first I ever installed in my phone and now Android recognizes when the phone is connected or not, and it shows the "charging" icon but the battery full. In battery status still shows 100% and Unknown. Strangely enough when I go to the bootmenu it starts charging, but only if I keep touching the screen and moving around the menus.

Defy+ black screen WHITE led

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

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.

[Q] Defy bricked, White led on top, not recognized by Rsdlite

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.

[Q] Motorola Defy Hard Bricked

Hey Guys,
i think i broke my Defy and i got the feeling that it may not be recoverable...
So i tried to install a new SBF, cause i wanted to have a Stockrom on it.
Unfortunately i might have touched the usb-cable and the flash failed.
I had the Problem with the ShadowRom, which means whatever sbf i want to flash, i first need this Oldschool Chinese Beta Rom (JORDN_U3_97.21.51.sbf
).
I Pluged in my defy and RSD-Lite recognizes the Phone as S-Flash Omap 3630, it also flashes the sbf, says that its rebooting and then i get a black screen. In RSD nothing chages when i plugin the Phone again.
The white LED is glowing.
I'm using RSD-Lite 6.0 and my Phones drivers are installed.
In the Attachement i put a screenshot of what stands on RSD-Lite.
Is there anyway, i might be able to restore the Phone.
PS.: Also tried 2 other .sbf's, same result

Just make sure you have enough battery charge, I think you may be with no charge, so you won't make it...
If your battery is gone, you will have to use McGyver method, or an external charger. The defy won't charge by usb or wall charger if it don't have a system...

Still got an old McGyver-Cable and an external Batterycharger.
I bricked my Defy really often, when it was my daily driver, so it was a necessary buy

[Q] HELP!!!

i had rooted the defy+ & installed cm7(i think because it had been a long time ago) for my friend
my friend did a reset on the phone since it was slowing down...
i think it has bricked...
because it doesn't turn on also
he got it checked at the service center, they said they have to change its motherboard
i doubt that....
i think the battery is dead too
will it charge even if the phone is bricked???
now how do i restore the phone back to stock????
any kind of suggestions will be appreciated

Use the Motorola factory cable guide to make the cable which should get you to the boot loader if your motherboard is fine

it's turn off (take the battery out if it's getting stuck at boot to make sure) then hold down power and vol UP to get to the boot loader

Use the Motorola factory cable guide to make the cable which should get you to the boot loader if your motherboard is fine

could u please explain it???
i have asked my friend to get the cable
is there a link that you can post??
EDIT: battery is charging via usb now
THANKS to @sevenrock

is it possible that the bootloader could be deleted???
because i was goin through some threads
twrp erased the internal storage along with the bootloader
thats what he claims...
just curious...
is dat possible?
btw i left the phone overnight connected(not the original moto cable, used sony cable) to my macbook pro(running win 8.1)
still the same
in rsd lite nothing shows up even after pressing down power+volume up

The McGyver method is very dangerous I would have sugested you not to use it because in my case I will never have the possibility of charging my phone via usb cable but with an universal charger and it can't be reverted so you are warned now,
Are you sure your battery is now charged to enter bootloader? It can't be erased, if not, then charge your battery with an universal charger then try to enter bootloader

If that's the case them I will ask him to buy those external chargers or check if his friends have the same phone

Try a flash, if you have a black screen after flash try a bl7 sbf(dfp 231)
You can also try ticking ti omap blank flash in rsd

after seeing thekguy mentioning abt dfp 231 i just remembered that i had flashed that sbf when i had rooted the phone
the phone booted after flashing bl7 sbf(dfp 231)
i guess the phone was bricked
& when it gets bricked... it goes to bootloader i guess
because i didnt have to press any buttons to go into bootloader
i just connected to rsd lite & flashing started & the screen lit up saying "SW update in progress"
Thank you guys for all the help & suggestons:good:

I you have a bootloop , could not get into a recovery haven't a rooted devive with usb debugging on , first try a factory reset from stock recovery.....before & after sbf flash
p.s.: nice to see nearly unbrikable defy once more
one of the forum rules tells us first read and use search function to keep threads clean because of things happen again and again and again
nothing for bad. ...
cheers
