Wow you are just stuck. Check your pm, I sent you instructions for the latest SBF; I would post it here but our admin does not wish the host site to be publicly displayed.

Jmoney can you PM it to me too? I think it may help. See my thread in the droid general section please!

What last rom worked on phone?
Read first thread about SBF files in General and choice that rom. Edit: You flashed lower version CG31/39 version rom then you havo on phone, possibly On CG31/39 4>3. You cant downgrade ROM with Full SBF, only with Nandroid & FixedSBF method. Good luck

ill be thankfull

what the hell, this is the dev section, not q&a!!!
firt rule of xda: post in correct sections!
mod, please shut this thread, and give our friend a manual on how to use this forum!
sent from my jellybean defy...

this is the only working sbf for me right now
DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed

in the general section you will find a sticky thread called all-in-one defy beginners guide, you will find all the info you need there.
second rule of xda: search before posting.
you bricked your phone by flashing sbfs without knowing what they really are.
you should check something: does your notification led turn white when connected to rsd lite (pc)?
and dont play around too much, because your battery will die eventually (the device cant be charged without a functional rom/kernel), and you will have to use the mcgyvers method...
just read everything you find in the thread mentioned above.

sorry, its late, misunderstood you.
have you tried switching basebands?
if you want to stay on stock, you will have to figure out which bootloader version you have (dont know the bl versions of stock roms by heart), and have to choose sbfs according to that.
but if youre up for custom roms, try any 2nd-boot rom of quarx, those should work.
but i cant stress this enough: read the beginners guide first!

[Q] moto defy bricked please help

Ok so here goes I ordered a defy from e bay with the hopes of unlocking it for my husband for Christmas. When it arrives I find out its been modded to cyanogen mod 7(7.2.0.) so I ordered the unlocking code not knowing that this modded phone can't be unlocked from t mobile. So then I find out that I have to flash the phone with a nandroid rom. I stay up all night trying to figure out how to try to do that. I read somewhere that I have to wipe the partitions and wipe the data so I do that and now I can't do anything except go into bootloader and recovery. So I try to use RSD lite 4.8 and 4.9 tried them both neither sees my phone. I don't know what I did or if the phone is even rooted it just showed the google android thing when I turn it on. At this point I don't know what to do I'm so confused and I really need some help please.:crying:

Maybe a reinstall of CM7 could help you.

If you can get to the Google screen then from stock recovery you could try a data wipe.
As for the rsd lite issue, check your drivers; there are specific drivers for the same, which you could find in the rsd lite thread.
If the data wipe doesn't work(hung on Google) then flash an sbf. Refer to the beginners guide for defy to get info on that

I solved the booting issue by just messing with the phone. So its back to running the cyanogen mod 7. So now my issue is getting this thing free from t-mobile. I have a unlock code but I'm not sure how I'm going to use it or if there might be another way to unlock it. Once again another sleepless night trying to provide a good Christmas. I am eternally grateful for all you guys help as I am a total noob.

Perhaps too late but: When you insert a SIM other than a tmobile one, it should ask for a code. That's where you enter the unlock code

I put an att sim in it didn't ask for a code tried to make a call no joy. Not sure what to do screen says no service. Can you unlock with cm7?

If no code is asked that means the phone is already unlocked. Try changing the baseband via the baseband switcher app for network issue. Just search around here and you'll find the thread. It should work after setting the right baseband.

[Q] Motorola Defy MB525 stock rom + simlock

Hello guys
Friend of mine gave me Motorola Defy to flash into stock rom as guy from local repair shop told him that this cannot be unlocked to all networks as long as its run Cyanogenmod and there is must to install original stock rom.
I have downloaded stock droid developers in ".sbf" extension and was researching xda in order to find out how to flash it but more I researched more I afraid become to do it.
I have found so many warnings not to downgrade that phone to Froyo, some posts saying not to flash ".sbf" at all but asked you guys for help.
Is there any safe way to reduce possibility of bricking this Motorola to the minimum?
Could someone advise me what should i do in this case? Should I give up flashing?
Helpful informations:
MB525 - on the label under the battery
MB526 - detected by system CM11-20140731-NIGHTLY-mb526
Recovery - TWRP
Thank You in advance for any help provided.
Regards

Hi, you can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=50699347&postcount=511 to unsimlock while staying on cm11, but no idea if it will really work.
I have flashed my defy many times without any problems, i have used a sbf from this list http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537 and kept it as reference in order not to use a downgraded sbf.
Just make sure the defy is fully charged, rsd lite + motodrivers are installed .

Flashing with RSD Lite didn't want to work as program didn't want to discover my phone, found another solution which is here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775913
Simple and works 100% even when my phone didn't turn on because wrong sbf, I could flash as many as I wanted to get the working one, which was mb526 2.3.6 version surprisingly
...
But now I need to get this devices rooted and all xda tutorials are about reflashing rooted sbf and installing twrp after that. Could someone advise me how to recognize rooted sbf which will be compatible with mb525??
I have tried framaroot to avoid flashing again but it didn't work unfortunately.

Pre-rooted rom must have "rooted" in their name, framaroot works for me.
