[Q] Defy MB525 CM10 Black screen, Can't wipe dalvik cache - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I come with a maybe unusual problem. Every other rom works with me Defy (T-mobile) except the CMX by Quarx. I tried different versions (6-8), and all of them give this:
-Wipe factory, cache, dalvik
-Install CM10, Gapps
-Reboot
-Phone hangs with black screen with the red led (which is normal at 2nd boot right?)
After that, if I want to downgrade to CM9, or CM7.2 I can't wipe dalvik cache. When I click on the option in CWM, it does not give me the no no no no yes no no options. Nothing happens. The screen refreshes itself like I just entered the advanced menu in CWM. I have to restore Éclair, than go to Froyo, then to Gingerbread etc. with RSD lite, then reroot, all of the stuff to get my phone working after this. I've got tired of this, and i don't know why this bug happens. I followed the instructions well -as far as i know-. I tried to install it from CM7.2, and from CM9.
The strange thing is, if it means something: It looks like my phone is losing permission for system (?), because if i try to revert back from CM10 to CM9, and reboot, it gives: Error. Encryption unsuccessful for CM9, and CM7 does not even boot. If i reboot to CWM, I can't wipe dalvik cache again. What could cause the glitch in not being able to wipe dalvik cache?
My previous CM7.2 is Euroskank gigglebread, which is a pretty good ROM.

Hi Buddy,
I had the same problem while trying CM10, The only solution worked for me is to flash back to Stock ROM. Once you have the stock ROM back.. You can root it again.. with CM7 or 9..
I should work.. as It worked for me.. I am on CM9 on my moto defy plus
Cheers

Because no one can count what you has done in the device I suggest to start from beginning and in correct order. (flash sbf., root, install 2ndinit....

Why do u flash eclair?..start from froyo 2.2 deblur sbf...

I flash Éclair when all fails, because if I flash Froyo with RSDLite over any newer ROM then Gingerbread the device goes bootloop and the rsdlite can't repair it, but with Éclair I can.. I'm still waiting for some answer about why can't I just simply flash CM10 over CM7 or CM9? Why does it gives me bootloop and red led freeze? It also loses permission to wipe dalvik cache, which, imo is a very important information, and someone probably knows why, but I don't..
So, Questions are here:
-Is it connected to BL version? (The redled freeze/bootloop with 2nd-boot CM10 only)
-How do I check BL version? (Now i have CM9 Epsylon, if it matters)
-How come the phone freezes on red led (2nd-boot) and restarts, when I had no problem installing any other ROM?
-What can cause 2nd-boot not to work?
-How can I roll back to Éclair, but not Froyo/ICS (stock froyo flash with RSD Lite -> gives bootloop, CM7 won't start/CM9 Encryption unsuccesful)
Notes:
-After failed CM10 installation I can't wipe Dalvik cache, reinstalling ( without flashing Éclair -> Froyo -> GB -> root etc.and CM7/CM9.) CM9 gives the "Encryption unsuccesful" error, CM7 won't start (ever), I still can't wipe Dalvik!
-Every other GB, ICS ROM except CM10 (JB) works perfectly fine
-I can only repair it with starting all over again from Éclair (an issue with something about you can't rollback from GB to Froyo cancels other options)

edit: no ideas so far?

Droid 2 Cyanogenmod stuck at M logo

Not sure if this should be in general, so apoligies if I'm in the worng place... Anyway, I was running the first Cyanogenmod nightly and tried to update to the latest. After updating, the phone stuck at the M logo. I can't get into clockwork but can get into stock recovery.
I can sbf, reroot, reinstall gingerbread, and it works fine. whenever I apply the latest cyanogenmod nightly I get stuck on the M logo.
Each time, after sbf I'm doing factory rest and wiping cache at each step. Works right up to the CM part. I also tried sbf, then OTA update, then the CM nightly, same result.
Looking for suggestions on other things to try... I really want to get CM working on this phone again, because I can't stand the stock!!
If you install CM and it boots back up and gets stuck, try going to stock recovery and doing a wipe data and cache and it should boot into CM.
When you install the CM7, make sure the FIRST TIME you are about to boot into CM7 you do a full data/factory reset (with bootloader) not stock, because it will bootloot every time if it tries to boot with the gingerbread settings, and after the first try, i couldnt get factory resets to work from the stock recovery.

This happened to me. I'm trying to do this for a friends phone and I am a little unfamiliar with Motorola because I have an EVO. Could you describe the steps for doing a full/data factory reset with bootloader?
The nightlies must be screwed up or something cause I'm having the exact same problem. I can SBF, flash the pre-rooted Gingerbread, and install the bootstrap Clockwork Recovery, but as soon as I flash one of the later nightlies, it's stuck at the Motorola logo with no where to go. Data wipe using stock recovery after words doesn't help at all.
Will be SBF'ing, and re-flashing, then will wipe data and cache while still in Clockwork Recovery and I will report back if this works.
my does the same, I flash back to stock 2.2, OTA to Gingerbread, root using droid 3, install the clockmod recovery, wipe, format, clear cache, install CM7, again wipe, format and clear cache, now it is stuck on M logo. factory recovery won't even give me the option of wipe and clear cache option. Looks like I am going back to stock again without CM7.
My mistake, I've downloaded the wrong kernel, you must get GB CM7 or it will loop.

I'm assuming you guys are installing CM7 version for OTA GB. Simple mistake but I know it happens.

This is true, dunno why CM Team is not updating the nightlies, I've tried everything, already SBFed to 2.2, updated to 2.3, rooted 2.3, wiped everything, flashed, no go, but boot loop.
I have managed to get earlier nightlies working b4 but it seems the latest nightlies are broken, can someone test them out???
Trust me, I've rooted enough phones to know what to do here (look at my sigs), these CM7.1 D2 nightlies DO NOT WORK!
The worst part about D2 is that you have to start from scratch once you end up in a boot loop, meaning you have to unroot back to 2.2 SBF, update to 2.3, then try flashing, a process that takes about 30 minutes. I've done it all day long yesterday and today, now trying to get some of the older nightlies to work.
i'm helping my co-worker put on CM for the first time and i got this same thing. i dont want to buy her a new phone. how do i fix this? im a long time htc user and so this is all new to me.
I used stock recovery, rebooted, still stuck. I'm having to sbf and I'm even having issues with that. Definitely gonna stick with Liberty until this gets sorted out now.

I was having alot of issues from not reading and thinking that I had to be on the GB OTA.
I read somewhere that you are supposed to be on Verizon 2.3.20 with sbf then do a factory wipe. Afterwards you root with ADB. Then you use droid bootstrab 1.0.0.5 to install the nightly after factory wiping once more.
I kept thinking I had to be on the latest OTA and I would get stuck on the M every time. Then I ran into the cyanogenmod wiki for the droid2.. Now I am just stuck wondering about overclocking, but at least I have a working cm now

After going with sbf nightmare after nightmare and having to buy a new battery, I finally got restored to stock and then rerooted, sticking with Liberty until I can easily flash CM like anything else without all the added steps.

Help Will 5 MIUI Rom

Good afternoon
I come from the last verção ICS Cyanogen mod 5 / 12 but when I install Miui rom the phone is simply not boot or crashes when connecting my palace just after installation
Rom install Miui
-Wipe Data
-Wipe Cache
-Wipe Batery Stasta
. I have installed recovery boot menu because I have everything right Cyanogem working
After MIUI nothing works only Boot menu, Recovery,
Any ideas?
Try flash MIUI again, then wipe cache and factory/data again. Or you can try download MIUI update again or try older version.
Wipe dalvik cache also.
And double or triple wipe before and after flash.
If nothing works, going back to froyo is the best way to start.

[Q] Stuck CM7 logo.Can't access custom recovery AND no results StockRecovery

Heeey guys!!
My problem is the following and I think that you can help me out!
I followed THE guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033654 and the FAQ and I installed the CM7 however I am facing the common problem which is to stuck in the screen seeing the skate-android-guy. In the FAQ the solution was to access the custom recovery and clear cache. If you cant see custom you have to clear cache from stock recovery. I did that, I reboot and i am facing the same problem.
So, I have a stacked CM7 with no custom recovery...
I am bit disappointed right now...
Thank you for your time.
pull the battery, and enter custom recovery with vol down when led is blue. clear cache and advanced -> wipe dalvik cache. reboot. worked for me last time i had cm7
-----
Sent from my Defy rocking ICS
Unfortunately, I did all the following but i couldnt access the custom recovery.. only the stock recovery.. after some hours i was bored trying to fix it so I flashed again the froyo version. Now, i am gonna install again CM7 hoping for the Success!!!
Thank you for your time sumeshpremraj!
Success i am running cm7

Help! BL7 Defy+ getting periodic reboot on CM9!

Hi,
Sorry if this has already been answered - I couldn;t find relevant answers.
I am having Defy+ MB526 BL7 on CM9 Quarx build latest build.
I am seeing random reboots occuring just like that - e.g. my phone was just lying and I found the Cynogen startup logo coming up. Happened thrice since yesterday.
While installing, followed the exact steps including wipe of cache/dalvik.
Any help on this is appreciated!
- try to wipe data/cache and dalvik
- afterwards try to reflash CM10 again (for instance you can try Epsylon's build)
- if it doesn't work try to flash an earlier build
- in the end you can make a clean install of CM10 (stock SBF -> CM7 -> CM10)

[Q] Help - Defy is stuck in bootloop

Hello
I've tried to upgrade my Defy (525, green lens) to CM10(jelly bean), but im stuck in a boot loop!
My phone had originally Android 2.1 installed, one year ago i successfully rooted it and Android 2.2 successfully.
What i've tried:
- load into 2nd init, wipe cache/wipe data
- install kernel-froyo-222-179-4-signed
- install CM10-20120924-NIGHTLY-mb525
- wipe dalvik cache(this does not promp for confirm, and prints nothing to the console, is this normal?), wipe data
- reboot. Now its stuck in an endless boot loop.
I can enter bootmenu/bootloader/2nd init/stable recovery. I can share here the SD card, so i can copy stuff to my phone
But as i turn on the phone, the red moto logo appears, the top LED is blue, then green, then reboot.
Did i miss something? (I've read somewhere about flashing SBF, do i need to do it?)
EDIT: I've tried to install cm-7-20120930-NIGHTLY-jordan.zip, but this gets stuck at the moto logo forever...Can i someohw see the bootlogs to fund out the problem?
Thanks
EDIT2: Solved it!
1. installed back Nordic froyo with RSD lite, rooted again
2. instaaled CM7 with this tut: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1054447
3. installed CM10 with the instructions from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1795647
dunno what went wrong for the 1st time, maybe upgrading from 2.2->4.1 does not work...
What went wrong
You have answered yourself. In the link to install Cm10, you will see the instruction requires you to flash froyo kernel.
For MB525 builds:
1) Go to Stable Recovery.
2) Wipe data/factory reset, wipe Cache and go to Advanced ► Wipe dalvik.
3) Go to install zip from sdcard ► Choose zip from sd card.
4) Flash froyo kernel
5) Flash CM10-2012xxxx-NIGHTLY-mb525.zip.
6) Flash Gapps.
7) Wipe Cache and Dalvik again (recommended).
8) Restart.
