[Q] Think i killed my defy by flashing Defy+ sbf..Help me!

Hi
i was on cm 7.2 nightly with the old kernel...i then wanted to flash blur 2.3.6 Defy+ full sbf cause i dont wanna downgrade anymore....but now i am screwed...
after flashing i get Bootloader screen again...showing
09.10
Err: A5,69,35,00,27
Batt Ok
Ok to program
Transfermode
USB
I tried the steps in the dev section with flashing a special sbf with cg 5 in it but hat didnt work either... all i get now is a phone thats boots in bootlaoder and shows error message... no way to get into recovery mode...
I know it was stupid not to flash a clean 2.2 before doing this...
Please is there anything that can be done or is my phone gone for good...
Trying older sbf dont work either...just black screen....

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
I'm having the same error on bootloader. i've tried flashing several Stock SBF files from http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php but still stucked on the same error in bootloader. Please help

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?

make sure you flash the right kernel,
this problem generaly comes when you have wrong kernel installed,
check on your rom thread

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??

Please help me root my Defy Plus

Ok, I need to root my Motorola Defy+ and install CM10. As I understand, it is a 3-step process i.e.
1. Root
2. 2nd-Init
3. flashing custom ROM
I have the following specs:
- System version 45.0.2310.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03
- Android 2.3.6
- Kernel version 2.6.32.9
- Build number 4.5.1.134_DFP-231
I want to know the safest way to root the phone. I tried SuperOneClick 2.3.3 a while back and it wasn't successful. It hung/crashed in the process and I finally disconnected the phone from PC.
I saw this XDA thread on how to root this above build number. However, that starts from wiping Data/Cache TWICE! So I'll lose all my apps and settings in that step right?
Before committing to that, I want to make sure there is NO OTHER root method possible for Defy Plus.

According to me, you cannot root your device without wiping/loosing your data. You need to flash that SBF through RSDlite then only it can be rooted.
and this method works perfect !! i had tried it by myself on MB526 with bl7.

Unfortunately, there isn't any other way to root the BL7 builds.. And trust me its by sheer determination that there is this one.
You can use a backup application to backup your apps/data and restore it afterwards.

but u lose not all data, only the app data and apps that u don't have from Google PlayStore. if u logged in the first time Google sync ur apps and contacts data back, if u have synced ur data before with ur Google account.

Thanks for your reply guys. Seems like this is the only way out. Downloading the SBFs now.
Two more questions:
1. Which SBF to use? CN or CEE? I heard some issues with the CN one.
2. Which version of RSD Lite to use? I have downloaded both 4.9 and 5.6

Greenlense? There is no such thing as Defy+ greenlense!

Can you take a picture of your lense and about phone menu?

I rooted with EU firmware and it went well. Flashed CM10 and loving it.
Btw, there is no such thing as Defy+ green lens. And you dont need any camera fix for Defy+. Just follow the root procedure and flash whatever ROM you want. No additional battery/camera fix required.

Its a Defy+. Don't get confused, Defy+ isn't green lens. All Defy+ are red lens. So there is nothing like a green lens defy+
Just follow the process in the link above.

Follow the process

You have bootloader version 7 so superone click will not work , you will have to use the method for bl7.

Can you suggest me which frimware is best for mr CN/EU.

Both are same. However I chose to go with the EU one to avoid any language or baseband issues.
