[Q] Defy stick on boot logo

hello fellows, tried to flash ms2ginger3.0 and the device got stuck on boot logo, boot menu wont load, and stock recovery (vol down + power button) doesn't work either. Tried also to attend to the operator, but they won't fix an none stock version.
any suggestions?

use rsd lite and flash a new sbf to it.

In case you don't know how to flash a new sbf with RSD Lite, here's a quick tutorial:
1) Install the Motorola drivers and RSD Lite on your computer. See this guide for installing Moto drivers and RSD Lite:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853674
2) Download the sbf file that you want to flash, and save it to your PC. Many sbf files can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537 WARNING: If you flash a full stock SBF file, in most cases you will lose the ability to downgrade to earlier firmware versions. NEVER flash a full stock SBF file with a higher Android version than 2.2 (Froyo). Any stock firmware with Android version 2.3 or higher is made for the DEFY+, which has different camera hardware than the DEFY. If you flash the stock DEFY+ firmware, your camera will be broken and you won’t be able to downgrade back to Froyo again.
3) Make sure the phone battery is fully charged. Power off your phone, then hold in the volume+ button and the power button at the same time. After about 5 seconds, release the buttons. The bootloader should display – it will show the version and a battery check. (If that doesn’t work, pull the battery, then put it back in while holding the volume+ and power buttons.)
4) Start RSD Lite on your computer, then connect the phone with a USB cable. In RSD Lite, the Status column should say “Connected…”. Click on that, and some information about your phone should show up under Device Properties. Next, click the “…” button and browse to select the SBF file that you want to install. After opening it, information about the file should show up under File Properties. Then click “Start” and wait for the flashing process to complete. Wait until the phone has fully rebooted and RSD Lite says “Pass” before closing RSD Lite and disconnecting the USB cable. As an extra precaution, I usually power off the phone before disconnecting the cable.
Good luck!

Thank you guys, just reallized the combination to stock recovery is (power botton + volup) now sbf Froyo.

Do you get the "no such file found" error as soon as you select a recovery option, or does the error happen later?
If all else fails, just flash a new sbf using RSD Lite. (See my previous post, above.) If you're planning to install CM7 again, I recommend using the 3.4.2-179-2 CEE DEBLUR sbf. Then follow this guide to install CM7 with working google apps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065798

on my defy + with BL7 i read some where that this is possibole but evrey time i try to flash one of them the phone gets into bootloop or bricked :\
need a video guide or something

Hey there!
The defy+ comes with bl7 so you've got to root it with this method(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1595013&page=5)
1. Shut down the phone>Press the button Volume Down and keep it pressed>Press the buton Power On>A Yelow Triangle with an Android will appear>Pres both Volume buttons>A menu will appears>Navigate up/down with the Volume buttons and Accept with Power buttons> sellect Whipe Data and Factory Reset and then Whipe cache>Select Reboot from menu and press imediately the Volume UP buton>the phone will enter in Bootloader Mode (is ready for flash process)>Connect it to PC
2. The Flashing proces is done on PC with the phone connected. You must install RDS Lite and Motorola USB Drivers (after installing drivers restart the PC.
Run installed RDS Lite as Administrator (if you use Windows Vista or 7). Click on [ … ] Button and select your .SBF file and click Open.
Boot your phone into Bootloader Mode (as I said at point 1.).
Now connect your Defy to your PC (if is not already connected)
The START button on RSD Lite should be available now, click and wait.
Don't disconnect until RDS Lite will show PASS.
Now your defy plus is rooted.
Now you have to install 2ndint. It gives you recovery menu.
Now you can go to recovery and flash any rom you want as per your wish.

i've did used this method a bilion of times , and evrey time after i flash the new rom phone gets bricked or into bootloop :\

When installing MS2Ginger, go to Backup and restore -> Advanced restore -> /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/MS2Ginger and restor system only. Then restore devtree and recovery. Don't restore boot as this is the kernel, which is for lower BL version, therefore causing a bootloop or a soft brick. I haven't flashed a BL7 Defy+ with MS2Ginger and am not 100% sure it will work, but theoretically, if anything would work, it would be this.

it works..

[Q] Install CM10 on Motorola MB526 BL7 DFP-231

Hello!
I search how to install CyanogenMod10 on my Defy MB526 BL7 DFP-231.
My config:
Rooted system: 45.0.2310.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03
Original system: 45.0.2310.MB526.Retail.en.FR
Build: 4.5.1-134_DFP-231
Boot Loader version: 9.10
I have rooted my cell and tried this solution: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30992824&postcount=2
The first problem is that: i haven't got, or i don't find it, menu advanced with "wipe dalvik cache" in the recovery mod
I have installed ClockWorkMod but when i reboot with him (checked wipe data cache, dalvik cache & selected new rom for install) my cell boot on the classic recovery mod or freeze on the motorola boot logo.
I am lost, thank's in advance for your help
Sorry for my bad english :/

it looks like you are entering normal motorola recovery, if you say you've installed CWM ( ClockWorldMod Recovery) then you need to wait until a green light turns on at boot ( after the blue one) and quickly press <VOLUME UP>, and then you will be at CWM recovery.

then how did you installed cwm? if you dont have the lights at boot, then you havent installed 2ndinit.
you should instald 2ndinit via apk defy.wdscript.fr/jordan-nightly/SndInitDefy/SndInitDefy_2.0.apk (i can't post links sorry)
then open the app (while usb debuggin on) and hit install 2ndinit buttom, witch will also install the recovery
that is the oficial metod with the defy, once you do that you'll get the blue and green lights at boot. (durring the Motorola logo)
presing <volume up> while the blue light is on enters bootmenu, and presing <volume up > while the green light is on enters CWM recovery

Also, did you manage to wipe cache and wipe dalvik after you flashed the CM10 zip? If not, you should do it just to make sure. I often get stuck on moto logo when I flash roms and wiping cache/dalvik plus taking the battery out makes it better.

[Q] 2ndboot no internal storage Defy Green Lense

I have a problem with Defy Green lense after installing 2ndboot Quarx. It seems that Android isn't mounting internal memory correctly
I can't install any app and after I restart phone, I get wizard to setup my phone like I just installed new ROM. From search on forum I found that people had problems with internal storage, but they always had some storage left (I have 0mb).
The things I have tried to do:
Installing fix for 11.10 and v2
Revert to old ROM version (non 2ndboot)
Factory reset from Settings
Delete data, cache and dalvik from Custom Recovery
Delete data/cache from Stock Recovery
Install another ROM (ParanoidAndroid)
Remount /system and /sdcard from Custom recovery
When I try to see log in custom recovery, I get this (log.jpg)
Can anybody tell my how to fix it?
Edit: How to fix internal memory
Motorola Defy
RSD Lite (download here: http://goo.gl/KRSRp
SBF (i reccomend 2.2 CEE Froyo) (download here: http://goo.gl/Jhz84) (for other SBFs use this link: http://goo.gl/dYQTl )
USB Cable
Charged battery (at least 50%)
Motorola USB Drivers (download here: http://goo.gl/bWg1M )
Download and install USB Drivers
Download and install RSD Lite
Turn off your phone
Go into bootloader by pressing Power button and Vol+ button
Connect your phone to your PC via USB cable
Make sure everything is OK
Locate downloaded SBF. In popup dialog press Uncompress and start flashing
If you get " Please manually power up this phone " in RSD Lite pull battery out > put your battery back > reboot into stock recovery by holding Power button and Vol- button > Choose Wipe data/cache > Choose Reboot system now
