need help - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i just bought a defy+, and i figured i'd flash the newest available stock rom on it for the best performance, so i flashed the one in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1375701
Now my phone won't boot, shows only black screen, and when i connect to a pc it says Motorola Flash Interface, but it doesn't show anything on the screen. I've tried all the recover tuts on the forum, and still no luck. Is my moto bricked already? Nothing works, i've flashed a different SBF 10 times i think, all no luck, while the flashing application (RSD Lite) shows passed all the time
Thanks in advance

Flash a bl7 sbf(dfp-231). It will boot. And wipe data from stock recovery

help!!! think i bricked my phone!

hey everyone, my sister wanted me to root/install a new rom on her droid 2 which i did however i made the mistake by loading clockwork mod, and tried installing the rom and theme through CWM and now the phone just stays stuck at the Motorola droid 2 screen, i tried booting back to recovery and wiped everything but nothing works (it keeps booting into CWM when i enter recovery mode also) please help!
Try SBFing the latest fireware 2.3.20
Its really easy
If it still doesn't work instead of doing in on the windows tutorial
do SBF for linux
I think my phone bricked too. It wont get off the m screen
Use koush's bootstrap to install things on the D2 us and your sister will thank you.

so i figured everything out and as i was about to flash sbf 2.3.20 i got the dreaded batt low cannot proceed and i don't have a spare battery or battery charger FML...

[Q] Defy bricked - any hope?

Hi guys
Before I explain I'd like to say that yes, I have read other threads on similar topics, although none seem to have the same symptoms as me...
This week I bought a software-bricked Defy on eBay with the hopes of fixing it and giving it to a friend. I first tried flashing an old Eclair SBF to no avail (only switched on to bootloader) and thought that it could be failing due to it being on a newer firmware. So then I tried Froyo, and when that didn't work either (bootloops like when I received the phone) I thought my last resort was a CG 5 SBF, so I went for the JORDN_U3_97.21.51 build. This seems to get further into the booting process, with the MotoBLUR animation appearing but I get a BP Panic - 0x00080010 above the animation before the phone switches off. Thinking I had nothing to lose I tried a Gingerbread ROM, but that just bootlooped too so I went back to 97.21.51. I realise I've probably painted myself into a corner by flashing these
I'm all out of ideas with how to get the phone any further and have searched for the BP panic to no avail. I can get into stock recovery and bootloader, although the recovery seems to have issues with accessing the cache sometimes.
Thanks for reading
The same panic have y for the last 2 weeks, after flashing hangs in bootloader (red logo and no animation), after other flash hangs on a animated red logo and thats where you must give it time 3 or 4 min. wating, when its dont works you can try to pul out battery and do it in again while you hold the start and vol. down button, then in recovery menu wipe Dalvik cache and wipe cahe. Maby it works then, when not you can try like me to go again tho recovery and there restore stockrom, thats the way ym getting my defy work again. There are many ways to get it back to work again and it cost me 2 weeks after flashing maby 15 diverend roms to get it works and even than when it works, 2 days work whit rooting it and get 3G alive. So when you think its dead, maby RSDlite can bring it back to live, just like here.
Now my Defy MB525 working like a Defy 526 on Gingerbread.
So don't give up, when you can see whit RSDlite the phoon, it must be possible to get it work, only problem here was on a moment when the battery was empty, but here on XDA you can find the megayver method (charging on a ohter cell like a duo) or what y have don, get my old nokia loader (5V) and whit 2 wires hangs on the battery power it up to 4.1 V, succes.
Thanks, although I was just getting repeated boot loops rather than it hanging on the logo... And that wasn't animated either. How did you manage to restore the stock ROM through the recovery? Did you have a flashable zip? Please bear in mind that I did not get a custom recovery installed
I'll look out for the low battery problem. Thanks for your advice

Thanks, although I'm pretty sure I did wipe cache and data... and I definitely did (several times ) after flashing Gingerbread. I feel like whatever is preventing Froyo and Gingerbread from booting is the same thing as what is giving me the BP panic on the CG 5 Eclair ROM.
I would suspect a hardware issue here.w
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk
I think it might be too It's a shame because I can enter recovery and bootloader okay, and the seller said it broke during a failed software update so I thought it would be a simple matter of reflashing an SBF.
what is bp panic?
what happens when it is booting?
Sent from my MB525 using xda premium
When I try to boot the CG 5 Eclair I get past the static Motorola logo (hence further than any other build) but the MotoBLUR animation is stuttery, with a BP panic at the top (see picture). This goes on for quite a while, then the phone switches off and this loops.
Ok if occurred during a software update, find out which he was installing and try that one. May also be worth trying motoupdate.
Sent from my MB525 using Tapatalk
I might try that, but won't it be useless now that I've flashed CG 5? I'll look into MotoUpdate
Is the general consensus that this is an unfixable hardware issue, then?
Apolgoies if you've already tried this, but I had a Defy which would do the same, either stuck on M logo or error in bootloader.
Each time I just plugged it into PC / USB at bootloader screen, and used RSD Lite to try another ROM. Eventually I found one which worked. I think I tried 5 before finding one which didn't cause any problems.
My defy was a ME525+ and the ROM which finally worked was "DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-132_BLUR"
So, if you haven't already, I'd just suggest try a few more ROMS, flashed from Bootloader / RSD Lite.
Hope it helps somehow

Stuck at boot

Hi,
I know that there are soooo many posts with this same topic, but i couldn't find any solution to my problem on these.
Here is the "poltergeist":
I was using CM7.2 Stable, i decided to try CM10 2ndboot from Quarx, so i follwed the steps.
After flashing the latest nigthbuild and rebooted the phone i got a red led and reboot loop, i made the steps several times but nothing changed.
At this time i decided to rollback to CM7.2, first used the nand backup, everything ok, but after reboot, led blue, led green,led button flash, nothing happens, the phone get stuck on CM logo.
Then i flashed CM7.2 from scratch, same thing.
Tried miui, same thing.
Always wiping everithing. The pone wont boot, i can reach recovery always, and i can flash roms without problems.
The only weird thing i've noticed is that wiping Dalvik's, i dont get the "Wiping ok" messages on bottom, sometimes.
Tits for everyone who helps me, and excuse my rusty english.
Cheers

Odd. Do you remember the android version you had originally and what version of RSD lite are you using
Also try the "Western Europe" version, its like ~5th from bottom on the defy SBF page.
[SOLUTION]Flashing process failed 0x7100 may help you.

Defy bricked, cannot unbrick

I'ts dead, black screen, nothing happens, sometimes (not always) white light is on when i hook up my defy to PC, and it is recognized in RSD lite.
I have tried pretty much every SBF suggested here, but no success. I have 2 batteries, and both of them were full when I bricked my phone, and I did it by flashing this one: (JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1_BLUR_P3_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8RTGB02C.0R_USAJORDANRTGB_P035_A011_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz)
I don't know what to do, any suggestions?
P.S. Oh, yes I remembered, my RSD doesn't say power up phone manually when done, it just says PASS.
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Use latest RSDLite. The sbf required is AsiaRetail DFP-231. If you cannot get to bootloader charge battery by external charger or search for McGuyver factory cable hack.
Try this site for sbf files.

Press "Vol- + power" and enter into stock recovery. Wipe data and cache.
In ur PC/Laptop, Ensure you have the motorola device drivers Installed and RSD lite 5.3.1.(mentioned in the above link)
When u put ur phone into bootloader (which is ver. 9.1) ur phone must be recognized. Then follow all the steps properly On that thread.
You have a MB526 right..? Can u also mention its Serial no. ie, DFP<something>..?

[Q] [HELP] Bricked Defy - black screen, white led, no sbf works

Hi all
So, I have a problem with my Defy (MB525 green lens). The best will be, if I'll write my full story. Here is it:
Story
I had Defy with CM 10. It had bloated battery. I wasn't using it for 6 months because I have another phone.
Some time ago, I decided, that I'll give Defy to my grandfather. On Tuesday this week I bought new original battery. I put it in the Defy, and charge it. I could boot up my old system as I wrote, CM 10. While it was charging, I detected that I haven't got SD Card. On the other hand, I found some 4GB Samsung SD, which had my father in his Desire. The SD Card had 3 partitions, which I tried to delete, and make only one, with GParted. After I did it, Linux and Windows can't see it. (This is almost other problem, which I'm trying to solve here http://crunchbang.org/forums/viewtopic.php?pid=350683)
But, when I put the CD Card to Defy, in TWRP recovery I could see some strange symbols. I thought, that I can repair something when I wipe SD Card. When the battery charged, I decided to do factory reset and wipe SD card. Here is my first failure. In TWRP I went to custom wipe, and here I marked everything including system and I wiped it. Then I remembered that system is recovery too. TWRP wrote, that everything except SD-Ext and SD was wiped. I known that this will be a problem. Yes, after reboot only Motorola logo without recovery.
I think, there was only one option - flash SBF, which I did. I went to stock bootloader and with sbf flash in Linux, I flashed this:
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
And than this:
CM7RC1.5_16_09_11_custom.sbf
After reboot, I got bootloop. I tried to replace battery, do factory reset but nothing helped. That time I haven't got working card, so I couldn't flash some zip via CWM recovery. Thus, I again flash another SBF, but I don't really remember which. Probably some official CEE Froyo however, I'm not sure.
After that and reboot, I got only black screen with white led lighting while USB was connected. When I wanted to go to stock bootloader, still black screen, but I can flash SBF, and while flashing, screen have brightness and text about flashing.
I knew that this is little hard brick. I again tried to flash other SBF which I have or I downloaded (yes, again I don't know which). One of SBFs which I flashed was some fixed Chinese SBF . That made my defy booting, screen working, but still bootlooping. I couldn't reach any recovery.
Again, I flashed other SBFs, CM's too but nothing worked and I got black screen again.
And this was end of my story.
Current situation
I have Defy (MB525 green lens), with unknown framework an it had only black screen and what only I can do, is break Defy with hammer or flash some SBF.
So, here is list of all SBF files, that I have downloaded and probably tried to flash: (No order)
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf

4.5.3-109-DPP-11-gingerbread-BL5-fixed.sbf
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_155-002_DEBLUR_SIGN.sbf
Probably that is all what I have.
I've read many topics with similar problem and guides, but nothing helped me, or SBFs were unavailable.
So, what have I to flash, or which guide to try, if I want working Defy?
Sorry for my not good English
Thanks

Story
After a long time (4 months)...
Accidentally today I found my favorite custom ROM - MoKee OS, for Defy. I said to myself: "Hm, I have some time... I'll try to flash this MoKee on my Defy and maybe it solve my problem with (not) charging/unknown battery for system."
I picked out box with Defy from drawer, wiped the dust, took the Defy and said: "Sh*t! I haven't got SD Card!" Fortunately I found one. I download MoKee OS zip on that SD Card, put it to Defy, booted to recovery and flash MoKee OS zip. (...with full wipe of course...) Then rebooted to system.
Uselessly. Still unknown battery. "Hmm, It doesn't matter. Maybe here are some new stuffs which can solve my problem." And I continued to finding something, that can solve my problem. After a while I found ROMs with new 3.0 Kernel by Quarx. HERE. I downloaded CM 11 EXPERIMENTAL with this kernel and update recovery and flashed them. I didn't read thread. After reboot system didn't boot up and TWRP was inaccessible. I found why when I read some posts from that thread. HERE. But I couldn't flash that zip via recovery because I couldn't open recovery. So I mount /system to USB from bootloader and added files from zip manually to /system partition. After reboot it jammed on booting up. But TWRP was accessible so I did full wipe and flashed CM 11 EXPERIMENTAL and than that fix zip by @lorcotti. After that it finally booted up and battery was working and charging!
And they all lived happily ever after. :laugh:
SO, If you have some problem as me (unknown battery after flashing GB SBF on MB525), try this:
1. Download recovery and some ROM from [Kernel][GPL] Development 3.0 Kernel and fix from this post.
2. Put all zips on your SD Card.
3. Boot up to recovery.
4. Flash update-recovery.zip.
5. Reboot to recovery.
6. Do full wipe.
7. Flash ROM with 3.0 Kernel.
8. Flash Fix.
9. Wipe cache and dalvik cache.
10. Reboot to system.​
If you want, you can flash GAPPS via recovery too.
But this will not be for daily usage! 3.0 Kernel by Quarx have a lot of bugs!
Thanks all!

Yeah!
Today I again tried to flash chines SBF. This one: JDGC_U6_2.13.0 China Unicom Thread/Download !!!BL6 kernel !!!
JDGC_U6_2.13.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNPRCB1B50AA039.0R_JORDANAPCNCU_P017_A042_M006_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
...and now I have bootable phone . I read many topics again and I got to know how to aces stock recovery. So I made wipe on this chines ROM and I can boot without loop, but I can only do emergency call with SIM it is the same. So, now, I don't know, what have I to do/flash, how to root it and flash here custom rom. Can I use SuperOneClick if it probably haven't got turned on USD Debugging?
Back on black
So, I made sbf file with depacker...
CMG39 from JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_155-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P011_A010_HWp3_Service1FF

Than the bootscreen changed from chines logo to grey motorola logo and I got Bootloader (9.00) Error A5,70,39,00,27. After that I flashed another sbf and I got Error A5,70,00,00,23. Than I flashed DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed.sbf and now I again have only black screen. F*ck!
I tried to flash my made sbf and chines one (JDGC_U6_2.13.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNPRCB1B50AA039.0R_JORDANAPCNCU_P017_A042_M006_HWp3_Service1FF) too but nothing...
Really here is nobody who can help please??? I want give Defy as Christmas gift. :crying:
OK, so repetition.
What mistakes I've made
1. I wipe wipe all including system partition in TWRP without any flashable zip on SD card.
2. I continued with flashing original SBF, while I have usable CWM.
3. I flashed many no downgradable GB SBFs.
4. I flashed Defy Plus SBF on Defy.
I hope that there is still hope.
Somehow to downgrade, flash only CWM where I can flash nandroid backup or I don't know what else...
a gingerbread sbf should also work on green lens defy as there is no diff. in hw... instead the cam
have you tried a factory reset in stock recovery after sbf flash ?

Now, after all (which I tried) SBFs I get only black screen. I tried many GB SBFs too, but still black screen...
I'm going to try some another Poland SBFs and than if that won't work, I'll try to flash all in Froyo CEE SBF particularly.
Thanks for your response.
Once you've flashed GB stock sbf you can't go back staight to froyo or else
Read the beginners guide and the SBF matrix sektion carefully.. if you haven't...

DFP 231 has been flashed by you, so no froyo sbf will work. Black screen on dfp 231 indicates some eMMC problem, because bl version is highest(no error possible). IMHO only service centre can disable bl check or replace the main board to fix the problem
The problem should have been solved at the boot loop issue by wiping from stock recovery, no network solved by baseband/radio fixes. Check the rsdlite log file to confirm checksum/access errors. I think that the custom sbf somehow messed up either eMMC or efuse(less likely, unheard of).
For sdcard error wipe everything using hdd llf. If any error persists it's a hardware issue

I know, I read it few times, and I know how it is (not) working. But, after all GB SBFs I got only black screen, so maybe were not correctly flashed... I'm using Linux and here is sbf_flash for flashing SBFs, and in it I can't view informations about phone as in RSD Lite... But maybe, it will work in wine..
Do you now, that if I flashed GB SBF, I have to flash another GB to solve my problem, because no Froyo will work?
@thekguy
I know how I can solve others problems. Only what I need help to solve is black screen.
Can't I flash something which support that high BL or it won't work?
check if you get into Bl. modus
press vol. up & then power button
tell what you see

That's what I'm saying, the black screen problem occurs due to bl version mostly, and you have highest bl, so in theory black screen is impossible. Unfortunately I have never seen in this forum any defy recovering from black screen after flashing dfp231. Check rsd log from windows if possible. Froyo sbf cannot work under any circumstance. You must flash only gb sbf

I'm stuck in same problem, downloading this sbf you mention before, hope it works. Fu^kin defy, it sucks
@Alejandrissimo
Good luck...
I have another problem. Now, I have GB kernel. In original 2.3.6 GB on MB525 green camera don't work, and battery too. So, I thought that, when I flash Froyo kernel (CM) and CM7 I got back Froyo kernel and working camera and battery. Yes, this was not possible. After I did it and rebooted it I got Bootloader error. I flashed DFP-231 again. Worked.
Than I tried restore Froyo from nandroid which I found something here on forum. Than I flashed CM7 and bootloader error again.
Now I have CM7 by Maniac for defy plus which worked well except camera and battery... I know that here are many topics about downgrading, camera fixing and others but all which I read are bad in something for me...
Here are some options what I found but I don't know if I can use one:
Method 2: (BIG thanks to Jebrew again for this one)
NOTE: You are going to need CM7 for this one. CM7 Stable version recommended.

DOWNGRADE
If you come from Android 2.1 and never flashed Android 2.2 you can use the fixed sbf-files method. With this method you will have a option to downgrade to you personal stock Android 2.1 via direct sbf flash.

It will only work if you never flashed a Android 2.3.6 full sbf.

Congrats man! Seems that rsdlite on Windows is the most reliable solution. Now to fix everything just flash cm10 (jelly bean) or later rom. It includes fixes for camera and battery
Again, no downgrading bl(not even jtag will work)

Oh, ok. I'll try it. Thanks.
Hmm, and than, can I flash CM7 by Maniac or JB/GB WIUI and fixes in CM10 will still working?
Ms2ginger is not good for me because it haven't got slovak language. I'll give defy to my grandfather.
//And now, in Quarx CM 10 my battery don't charge. I tried 2 chargers and charging via USB too.
In options, battery is still "60% - Unknown"

There's a cm7 2ndboot build which should work for you. Try cm10.1 or above, problem should be solved.
JB wiui includes those fixes, as does cm7 2ndboot. I don't think that wiui GB has them. I would personally go for cm10.1 or above
