Hey guys, i tried installing CM7.2 by maniac on my defy+ sometime earlier, and had problems passing, cyanogenmod logo.
I cleared all dalvik and cache but still nothing.
Steps:
- Cleared all partitions an cache.
- Installed rom, then cleared cache and dalvik
- installed gaaps, then cleared cache and dalvik
- Rebooted and now stuck.
Hope for some quick help...
I guess like me u too come from cm10 2ndBoot Roms. I had the same issue, suggest u to flash sbf before your battery dies.

I went back to cm10, heard from someone you have to change to ext3 if you want to flash CM7.2 and cm9 roms

when installing CM9 to your defy is it the same process for flashing CM7 or is there a slight variation or something?
Now why would you open a new thread for this question?
i realised that i could've directly asked on the actual CM9 thread, only after i'd just posted this thread, sorry.
another weird thread

The original thread was Dev based, about the ROM being released and how stable it is as released. This thread was noob based about how to flash said ROM and if it is different from another, very similar ROM.
Why clutter one thread when you can have two?
Anyway, to answer the question instead of of questioning the question, Yes the basic principle is the same. Once you have the System Recovery installed, it's a case of copying the CM9 zip file to your SD card and flashing the same as CM7, although the way I've personally done it is using Multiboot, so that I can normally use CM7 for "production" but can have a go and see how CM9 is progressing for a few minutes or so.

Have fun.

And to get back to CM7 from CM9, you only have to flash the CM7 zip?

Reboot and press vol- when you seen blue light. You'll be taken to the bootmenu. It's stated in there version of your current bootmenu.
And yes you need to change it speaking of compatibility..

Absolutely not. You don't need to mess around with bootmenu versions and other stuff. Just read the thread i pointed to above, it works, proven by people following it with succes, and no need to change bootmenus

I flashed stock full sbf 2.2.2
Rooted using superoneclick
Installed scndInitvs2.0 which gave an option of installing either 0.6.5 or 1.0.7 bootmenu. So chose 1.0.7
Rebooted a couple of times.
Did factory reset , cleared cache and cleared dalvik cache in that order.
applied 12-07 CM9 zip
and rebooted
but my phone is stuck on the M logo!
Thanks! As I want to try the Dec. 7 nightly just for testing purposes. Thanks again!
This is a kernal issue mine is the same im trying to find the best way to update the kernal if anyone knows please let me know

I'm currently on the latest CM7.1 nightly but when I tried to flash the cm7.2 nightlies which are for the defy+, I got stuck at the M logo. I then flashed my old 7.1 and now it's working again. Can someone tell me what I did wrong? Also, I didn't erase data, just cache.
I think that's because defy+ uses another kernel , so when you flash cm7.2 you still having froyo kernel , i think if you flash the cm9 kernel over cm7.2 it will work! But i 'm not sure

Can you link me to both cm7 and cm9 kernels?

I packed the two different kernels into clockwork flashable packages.
1. Flash either a nightly or restore a nandroid.
2. Flash either CM7_Kernel-signed.zip or CM9_Kernel-signed.zip; depending on what you've installed.
3. Reboot.
CM7_Kernel-signed.zip
CM9_Kernel-signed.zip

I tried those .Zips and they didnt work for me.
What I ended doing is restoring Boot/devtree using CWM from a Walter 2.3.6 rom and it worked
Let me get this right, first I need to flash CM7.2 and then I need to restore boot and devtree?
EDIT: Thanks leonardojegigzem. It worked!

CM72 for DEFY+ didn't get camera working for now.
Any idea when it'll be fixed or if it'll ever be fixed?
Why don't you try the CM7.2 Nightlys for Defy and not for the +?

I guess because the ones for Defy+ are more recent. Newer = better.

You should try CM7.2 rom for the device you possess i.e. Defy. :good:
Just install cm7.2 for defy (not +). If you want to flash the defy+ version, you will have to install gb kernel and battery fix.
Can someone please write the detailed steps for upgrading my defy from CM 7.1 to CM 7.2?? I have never upgraded a custom rom.

Thanks for the prompt reply, I updated defy as you said but I didn't wipe cache,dalvic and still its working fine. Do I really need to wipe and what is the significance of doing so??

Hi, I'm currently on 7.1 and looking to upgrade to 7.2. Which of the following should I choose and is there a major dif between them?:
cm-7-20121008-UNOFFICIAL-jordan.zip
cm-7.2.0-jordan.zip
1. My defy has stock froyo and I flashed it to cm7. Now I'd like to try cm9 or cm10, do I need to flash sbf or sth?
2. I saw in cm10's thread in which it gives gapps. If I flash cm9, can I use the gapps it provided in the cm10 thread?
3. My current cm7 is quite buggy and slow, cm9 and cm10 should be better?
Thanks.

Just wipe your data, cache and dalvik cache.
Install the CM10 ROM, then flash the updates.
Wipe cache and dalvik cache.
You are done! No need to do anything else. You are safe.
And Quarx CM10 is awesome!
You can use it daily.. and with the battery fix.. it will be too good.
Thank if I was helpful.
