Not able to downgrade from Quarx CM10 build to CM72 - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I ma running Quarx's latest cm10 build with 2nd boot, I want to downgrade to gingerbread but when I flash any gingerbread rom the phone gets stuck to motorola logo.
I was able to install Gingerbread over older Quarx's cm10 build before 2nd boot.
Please suggest some solution.
Thanks

Dude there is an existing thread for this, started by me this week.
Please refer to it. Use the search function and make efforts to look beyond the results on the first page in the forum. :silly:
Help keep the number of threads to a minimum, it is for your own convinience.
Here is the thread :highfive:
Don't forget to hit the Thanks button.
And if you are stuck at the red moto logo, I would recomend a full SBF flash and starting again to ensure the cleanest install possible.
Good luck.
Press thanks if this helped.

[Q] CM9 on GGL ROM

Hi,
I am one of those who has ended up with a Defy with green lens. I am not a dev but I stumbled upon this if someone has not already done so.
I have been playing around with MIUI, CM7, GGL and wanted to try CM9 ICS. I followed an already closed thread by adi4motion on this forum, started with stock Froyo but all the time ended up stuck at Moto logo on reboot. While reading the thread to make sure I have not missed out anything but following that thread did not lead me anywhere either on stock Froyo or GB downloaded via thread link but the only thing that got into my mind was GB was flashed after CM9.
So I flashed the latest CM9 Nightly 120617 zip dated 2012-Jun-17 on GGL ROM Android 2.3.6 from this forum and gapps 4.0.3. It has been successful with camera, opera, gps working well. So far no FC. Seems stable so far 2 days of checking various things. While installing Opera wifi needs to be on else installation fails. I do not know where to upload screen shots taken by holding power button.(that works too).
I seek expert opinions.
Your thread Title: Misleading
Your Question: Unknown
Your Thread location: wrong
Please ask the moderator to move it in Q&A thread and be appropriate on ur question. We will definately help u.
Questions go in the Q&A section
brajesh was right that I was not clear in my question. I was looking for changelog for CM9 for defy. I could not really locate one. All I could find was from the now closed thread that specifies a specific GB kernel or a Froyo CM7 kernel and a buggy HWA with Opera not working etc.
My question was supposed to have been whether any GB kernel is good enough for CM9 ICS flash for defy.
I found that flashing CM9 zip over GGL ROM without any kernel update worked OK for Opera to work fine. A buggy HWA was pointed at for Opera not working. As mentioned in that thread Camera Panorama does not work. I did not even expect the defy to bootup full going by the closed thread.
Sorry I did not click the option if mine was a question. I would appreciate if some one could point a thread where I can learn about HWA testing as I do not have enough net time per week basis. Thanks in advance.

i9100G - Root + CM10 install help. Firmware confusion!!

Hello People,
Let me begin by stating that I am very very new to Android rooting and custom roms (actually, this is my first time ).
I have a SGS2 i9100G. I have attached the screenshot of my phone software details. I have searched on the internet and XDA but am unable to find or maybe understand how to root my device and install CyanogenMod 10 (JB 4.1). Whenever I reach a post which seems like the way to root my device, it talks about firmwares and modems which are different than what my phone has.
I would be very very greatful if someone can sort this for me and provide some links and steps on how can I successfully root my phone and install CM10 (JB 4.1). Thanks a lot already as I know people will start replying in no time
Cheers
Sorry. I think I posted this question in the wrong forum. Please delete it. I am posting it in Q&A.
Sorry, Again. :angel:

First: This thread should be on Q&A. 2nd: Read defy begginers guide, since you're noob. 3rd: CM10 thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768702
As turffe already wrote, you need to read through the FAQ first in order to understand everything.
Then I'd recommend you checking out the developers forum which has many Custom Roms. I would look through the custom roms, read through the comments and then decide on a CR. But before flashing your phone, you need to be familiar with the process!

Defy+ best stable CWM and CMs
Hi,
First post so it ends up here. I have been following the Defy user guide and have found that a lot of links are broken and when trying to locate files there is a lot of misleading info on this process.
I'm new to rooting Androids but I'm capable of following procedures as long as they don't involve too many acronyms or poorly explained sections.
I have a rooted phone via framaroot and 2ndinit installed.
I don't quite get what to do next with Clockwork Mod or TWRP? Also, there are references to recovery installations but the links seem to head to an error page. I'm in Australia if that makes any difference to the recovery file. My MB526 is currently at 2.3.6.
*** edit OK so I learned that the 2ndinit has CWM5.0? in it and I followed a guide to install Cyanogen 10.2 and Gapps which wouldn't install via the CWM recovery. So I go around again and am looking for CM10 which is referred to in another guide (then step up to 10.2) Surely there is a better way to complete this? From here there is another step to CM11... I'll get back to it in the morning...
Once I install the CWM(x) I then install a custom ROM? CM(x) which one is recommended as stable? I'm not looking to rewrite history with this thing, I'm just looking to share the SD card with the OS and strip out all of the bloatware so that my kid can call me on this thing with skype and sync a gmail calendar account. Pretty simple, but don't want it getting bogged down.
I thank you guys in advance for your helpful responses and look forward to getting this old beast humming again!
Mav
****edit I managed to get the latest nightly cm11 into my device after reading many threads with instructions buried down in the comments. Unfortunately my phone runs slowly, way slower than stock. Is this normal for the builds due to the increased resource requirements from kk? Is it a stability issue, if so what is the latest stable build? Is anyone active through this place anymore or is it a parking zone for old phones?
Hello. I need your help. I can not get by any aside Stock Rom . More specifically, the Rom Retail Latinoamerica Moto Defy MB525.
Anyone is able to upload to download ?
Anyone have the Brazilian/Latin America Retail of Jordan Plus??
please upload working link
can anyone please upload working UK original rom link for motorola defy plus red lens 4.5.1-134_DFP-231 BL7..
thanks in advance...
SBF download links broken
Unfortunately I have bricked my beloved Moto Defy Plus.. Yup I still use it.. Can somebody please help me locate this file which im sure will solve my problem..
Blur_Version.45.0.2310.MB526.NonEFIGSRetail.en.EU Retail Central Europe
Regards.
Bricked defy, white LED
I'm in a sticky situation with my moto defy, tried to install cyanogenmod (done this several times) but as i was installing the rom, the phone restarted and started directly on bootloader. I tried to get it to come back to recovery (no use), and went back to trying to install an SBF file, here's where i screwed up badly, almost all sbf files for the defy are in shutdowned servers, so i couldn't download my original carrier file (personal argentina), and tried one that i found on another page, and after installing that file, i got a black screen with the LED turning white when i plug it into de pc, and it being recognized by RSD lite. after that i tried several files, all giving the same result, or showing the bootloader screen with a 4 byte error written in 2hex,2hex,2hex,2hex form.
4.5.1-134-DFP-132 - retail-en-de full Blur
Any chance to get 4.5.1-134-DFP-132 - retail-en-de full Blur ? The link to the thread doesen't work, I found some mirrors to many defy+ stock roms, but apparently I can't find this one.
This is the rom that officially comes with my phone.. so I will like to have it stored on my hard drive in case i make some mistakes while flashing - playing with roms..
Also.. right now I'm using nightly cyanogen 7.2 jordan plus rom, and it works very well.. But I would also like to try a stock rom without blur motorola services and without google apps.. any suggestion will be appreciated
Thanks

This does not resolve the camera issue but does seem to prevent the reboot which occured before.

AND MY BOY MULTITASKING PROJECTS NOW. LOL. Is sub77 having the same issue as I am? I get stuck at the samsung launch screen right before my boot animation appears. (If I flash ROM then Kernal) simultaneously through twrp recovery. ---- :\ ----- if I just try to flash the CM 12.1 Unofficial, gives me a soft brick. Trying to look at threads on the issue. It states "cannot find update binary in cm12 file" during some Cm12.1 ROM flash attempts

T,
I use philz recovery, twrp is consistently a giant bag of bugs and i won't touch it..

don't multiflash , do rom, then kernel, then supersu.

Kernel v4
Hey Moon,
Does the 4th version enable over clocking the tablet? In kernel editor I have the option to push the CPU upwards of 1593MHz and the GPU to 533MHz. ! BTW, any new projects? I've been following you and sub77 on this Rom\Kernel but seems like it is getting quiet. I've been fooling around in the system files to see if I can find a fix for this camera. I got rid of Two files in /system/etc/permissions. And had to edit two that I found which were corrupt compared the the other camera files I've been comparing them to. I'm slowly but sure on to something. Let me know if u want to port a Sweet ROM, or Tweak a kernel out, etc. I'm ready!
Thadd.
T,
hi, if you succeed in solving the camera issue, please do a complete detailed write-up on the fix.
For all versions of kernel 2-4 i applied amyren's OC/UV changes , and set ondemand/cfq as default.
I run that kernel in my cm11 build [personal, not release] and it does well, camera up. the break is on the rom side somewhere. [cm12]
i am currently working the LL kernel realease for the sm-t530nu. The kernel for the sm-t330nu [mine] is done.
The source is posted here, https://github.com/moonbutt74/kernel-milletwifi-choad-warrior-rv01
you are absolutely welcome to and encouraged to take it foward, being a bit of a dumb-dumb that's as far as i could get it. :silly:
