[Q] unable to install MIUI - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello friends,
I have installed custom ROMs many times before... I have tried MIUI, cyanogenmod 9, etc...
But, before few days my phone had stuck at the boot logo, so I flashed it using the SBF- JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.7
my phone is Motorola Defy (green lense) MB525...
Now, when I am trying to install MIUI or WIUI , it is showing installation complete,
but, after rebooting the system it is booting in my Normal FROYO only...
How can I install MIUI on my phone again now????

What the.. unbelievable.. Ok then try a newer 2ndinit apk and check the installation zip files. Is the problem limited to miui or does it happen with ANY ROM?

change the sbf version... try to flash other sbf
I also have defy green, I am on fixed GB sbf and its is working perfectly...... you also can try this

Problem Solved

Thank you very much buddy!!
Actually, this time I was using "tenfar recovery" on my friends suggestion... I think there was some problem with that...
Now, after flashing my defy I installed the newer version of "2nd init recovery"...
And MIUI is running well on my defy now...

[Q] Problem with Defy Plus and CM7.

Hello everyone
So yesterday i flashed this CM7 build cm72-111212.1201-NIGHTLY-Defy+.zip and today i was going to take a picture just to find out that my camera force closes everytime i try to launch it.Any solutions for this?
I flashed it over stock 2.3.5 if that helps...
No one knows? I tried reflashing and that didnt work...When i try to run it i get camera(process com.android.camera) has stopped unexpectedly and force close button.BTW my battery stops charging at 88%,anyone knows whats up with that?
I suggest flashing a new CM7.2 Nightly build for defy+
from this great thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1458729 i found:
12-01-27 Epsylon7/Defy+:
cm72-120127.0846-NIGHTLY-Defy+ link: http://www.defy-cm.net/defy_plus-cm7-nightly/
and AL's posted Defy+ fixes for camera and battery etc http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21875699&postcount=15069
I flashed this over a stock Defy+ 2.3.4 4.5.1-134_DFP-74
Thanks for your reply i always thought i had the latest one since it was the first on the list...well i gotta pay more attention to dates
EDIT:Everything works now,thanks again...
defy plus
Hey,
Even i have a defy plus with 2.3.4 rom...and kernel 2.6.36.9 ....planning to flash the latest defy plus nightly.....
I have rooted and installed 2ndinit and took a nandroid backup of my rom sucessfully.....so whats the next step??
Do i need to install anything else before installing the defy plus nightly??
And what are the features it enables??
Does it provide 720p video recording and playback??
Newbie here. please help.
Thanks.
if you installed 2ndinit and booted to CWM-recovery ... and you already have a nandroid backup of your device, you only have to install the zip from sdcard and you are ready to go (maybe you need to flash fixed-sbf with the kernel for cm7) ...
hi ganesh0992,
slstr above has given good links regarding flashing CM7.2 on defy plus. I am running the same build of CM7.2 cm72-120127.0846-NIGHTLY-Defy+. you should follow those instructions and don't forget to apply battery/camera fix.
720p capability is not supported in this ROM by default, you will need to apply a different patch, i don't know if one exists for CM but there is one for STOCK rom and another rom (mginger), google it. (CANT POST LINKS NEW USER!!)

This is a known problem in the nightly you used! Use Quarx nightlies. They are better and more updated!

[Q] Any WIUI doesn't work on my device :(

Hi
My device: Motorola Defy CyanogenMod 7.2 off st bootmenu 2.0.0, multiboot defy 0.5 (2.2.2, Poland, green camera SOC, JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179 deodex, radio EPU93_U_00.59.01)
I try to install WIUI (2.4, 2.5, 2.6) from different sources on Multiboot (cache - 150mb, data - 750mb, system - 350mb) more than 15 times. Doesn't work:
2.4-2.5 - black screen
2.6.15,16,22 - first load, work screen, reboot and than cyclic reboot from the boot animation
CM7, CM9, MIUI 2.4 work fine
Flash yesterday JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179 deodex - didn't help
Help me please.
P.S. I do not have enough posts to post in the topic of firmware WIUI
Is there anyone in the house?

Does it boot without multiboot?
Sent from my MB526 using XDA
I didn't try because I need stable main firmware with all working functions for all days using. Now it's CM7.2
up
Maybe issue with multiboot.
Wiui GB is very stable. go for it. Its based on CM 7.2
Do you have installed multi boot manager? Look up if something is wrong (written in red), this is an bug i had sometimes. But will try it if its working on an other defy.
- So 2.6.8 is working s virtual for me the other version will test later

At the Russian-speaking forum, no one is loaded on multiboot. I want to try, but don't want to flash on Nand.

Yes, I have. CM7, CM9, MUIU work fine.
I even flashed MIUI 2.4 and than flash WIUI 2.6 over MUIU 2.4. Didn't help
Check the md5 sum? Sometimes i got trouble because the zip wasn't complete. And file size was 0kb.

Thank you for advice.
But I tried more than 15 different files.

Backup and flash with your factory ROM
Hi,
The best option for you to do is to Backup all the SMS, Contacts and Application data and then flash your phone with the factory build ROM that came in with your DEFY.
Here is the list of ROMS for Defy variants---http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537
Go through this link and get your ROM do a MD5 check to double check if the downloaded version is correct. Then flash your phone with that ROM. By doing this you would have the warranty of ur device intact (If your defy is still within the warranty period).:good:
Then finally restore all your backups. :angel:
You may be tempted to upgrade your ROM to the newest SBF like ICS or JellyBeans. while doing so please make sure that that particular SBF is fixed SBF and not full SBF. the difference btwn the 2 is. Fixed SBF allows you to downgrade your DEFY but full SBF only lets you upgrade the version but never downgrade.
If you can understand this then go ahead and search for that perfect match for your DEFY.
Cheers,
Vic
Thanks a lot

Hello,
I try to install the latest Version of Cyanogenmod (http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=jordan) on my new Defy+, using Ubuntu 12.04
But.. I fail. It seems there is no complete HowTo for Dummies written.
Here , I can find how to install ADB on Ubuntu and my device is recognised:

...but then, what?!
I want to a) delete all thats on the phone and b) install cyanogenmod and the google pack.
If I find several pieces to go through the comlete installation I am happy to make one complete post out of it for everyone.
Thanks,
Jean
That is for defy not defy+
You will get a frequently updated CM7 at fitsnugly.euroskank.com/?rom=cm7&device=jordanplus
Flash the ROM from here on your defy+.
Root your phone and install 2nd init. Then flash the rom in custom recovery. There are plenty of tutorials! Even videos! Google

1. Download & install the driver http://www.motorola.com/consumers/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=2cff07f8ef573210VgnVCM1000008806b00aRCRD
2. download and install RSD lite http://dl.atftas.us/OEM/Motorola/RSDLite5.6.msi
3. Do step 2 and 4 from this HowTo (wipe not necessary) http://www.android-hilfe.de/anleitu...fuer-bl7-stock-roms-2-3-6-dfp-188-hoeher.html
4. install 2ndInit: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032212 and activate it
5. copy the latest version of cyanogenmod on the sd card http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=nightly&device=jordan
6. restart entering the bootloader (press the sound button down when the blue light flashes while booting)
and now... I will try with the defy plus versions you send me! you have any other recommendation for strong defy plus versions? maybe a CM9 version?
thanks! and I will update later!
Cm9 has been stopped. Cm10 is latest.
Cm7 is rock solid and stable. Cm10 is awesome but I cant put up with it
