Defy mb525 on bl7 - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey
Here m in a problem
I had mb525 defy green and by accidentally I flashed it with bl7 then my camera is not working
After this I flashed a rooted bl7 stock ROM and go for cm10 2boot of quarks
My boot loader version is 9
And I want to downgrade it for cm7
When I install cm7 my camera is still dead with this
Anyone help me to get out of this

Well, I've never had to learn it but greenbread mod is something to do with it - not sure if it works for BL7 - here
Otherwise you'll have to wait for 2ndboot build of CM7 - now only from Eppy and very experimental

[Q]ICS ROM clarification

Hi Now am using 2.3.7 version and kernal 2.6.32.9-gb in my defy,
Am planing to install ICS 4.0.3.What kernal should download?
Becoz i already tried Mar 3 build but its stucked many times and getting restarted again so pls tel the correct methods and kernal.GApps.
Can any one help me?
If you have gingerbread kernel you need to install a Defy+ build. If you have a normal defy, I think you need to install batery fix as well. I'll try to find it. Defy+ builds work well with red lense defys, but I don't think camera works for green lense users.
Thanks...so shall I install defy + build...and kernal link available separately....what is the use of those kernal...how. and wat should be install

You already have a kernel. Or else you wouldn't be able to use the phone. You've already told me that you have a gingerbread kernel. So don't bother flashing a new one.
Gapps is on first page for main CM9 thread. Battery fix is somewhere in the thread :-/ Look around page 300

CM9 Kernel gives bootloader error. It's for froyo kernel users only (as far as i've understood)
DON'T flash it! It will soft brick your phone!

I hope all doubts over
CM9 builds,gapps & battery fix is enough to my phone to run ICS.
Have to flash above three things?
Am i right?
Yup, that should be it.

If you mean anything else to install, then no. Does charging work?

That is true. I have a Defy+ and I installed the CM9 kernel. It soft bricked my phone and I had to do a SBF flash, root CWM recovery and all things all over!! Flash the CM9 built for Defy+ by Quarx. It does restarts and freezes ocassionally but is okay otherwise for a beta version!!

Urgent doubt

Hello friends, I updated my defy 525 with these roms DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CN_SIGN_UCADEFYEMARAB1B50AA009.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRIRD15_P015_A030_Service1FF.sbf and DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed.sbf. My 525 has now become defy defy 526.I know with this update it will not come back to defy 525, will always defy 526. I wonder, every time you update this rom to my defy have to defy or 526 can upgrade to defy roms 525. what should I do. thanks for listening.
You flashed an Defy + MB526 rom to Defy MB525. You cant downgrade from there anymore.

Defy (red lense) kernel?

I installed Epsylon3's "[ICS] CM9.1 Android 4.0.4 for the Defy - now with 2ndboot kernels" and i was wondering what kernel should i install:
kernel-froyo-222-179-4-signed.zip or kernel-gb-234-451-134-signed.zip?
And another problem: after installing the ICS my battery drains very quickly. What shall i do? Install the "ICS Defy Red Lense Battery fix"?
Try the battery fix. The 2nd boot kernel will be fine otherwise I'd use the gingerbread or defy green froyo kernel.

i will try the fix. what kernel do you have? i'd like to install the GB version, but i don't want to have problems. i read a lot on the forum and i understood that the GB is compatible with my Defy (red lens), but what are the advantages? will it work better?
I'm using GB kernel from fixed sbf and using CM7 (maniac) and it seems a little smoother than froyo kernel. *green soc defy*
Defy red lense is basically a defy+ with a 800MHz clock speed and a smaller battery. The RL defy can use the camera on stock gb builds.

Bl7 - bl6 - bl5...

Hi!
I am wondeing about this thing that don't let me calm down since I got my Defy.
Is there any difference between a Defy flashed with BL7 and a Defy flashed by BL6 or BL5 or whatever? I mean in schools of performance, reliability - not the thing that BL7 isn't downgradeable?????
For example let's say you are on CM10 by QuarX
No there is no difference at all in terms of performance

Defy+ ROM on Defy?

Can I flash the Defy XT or Defy+ ROM on my Green Lens Defy?
Someone link me?
yes you can use Defy+ roms on defy but only if it has 2nd boot.
Eg. MS2Ginger 5, CM10, CM9, Slim Bean, PAC, AOKP, Paranoid, etc.

So, no way to install the stock mb526 2.3.7 ROM?
Actually It's not urgent, as I've upgraded to an xperia Z, but my defy on CM 10 lags very very badly. Almost un-usable. So needed help :/
Don't ever try to install defy+'s stock 2.3.6 on Defy.
Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982
About SBF and CG version, if you install stock 2.3.6 on defy, you won't be able to revert back to 2.2 again, let alone many problem like camera won't work or battery stats malfunction.
If You want 2.3+ roms, use custom roms like those hackergnome suggested. (MS2Ginger was a modded stock 2.3.6 and can be used on MB525 without problem.)
Yes MS2 Ginger is the best gb rom in terms of stability!
