[Q] Defy cant open except boot menu :/ - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Firstly , this is defy not defy plus
I had installed MIUI on my mob .one time i was rebooting and my mob. opened in recovery
Without pressing volume down and it doesnt want to open normally so i deleted recovery
and nw it doesnt open except boot menu when i press volume up
so what's the solution please cuz i really miss my phone :/

I think you messed up your phone, flash MB525 stock rom (read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982), wipe data/cache in stock recovery and try again.

From the link u gave me the writer insists that defy isnt easily bricked so i still have some hope
the solution is to flash my mob using rsd lite but i dpnt know what to flash ?? :/

From that link, read "How to Flash" section.
Moto driver, RSDlite, MB525 sbf, all can be found there. Suited the name "All-in-One" Defy Guide!

In How to Flash Section He said ''Get the SBF you want to flash
- Full SBF: No Nandroid backup needed, always keep CG versioning in mind.
- Fixed SBF: You might need a matching Nandroid Backup. '' and didnt give link of MB525. sbf
I cant really find it so if u found it please put the link here And thanks Much for ur cooperation

Read "Official SBFs" section, get defy's SBF suited to your country and don't even think about touching Defy+'s SBFs.
Why? Read again "CG versions" section.
See? That thread's totally all-in-one!! (Pressing thank button to his thread would be a good idea.)

For now I suggest you read the while thread, it have everything you should know before modding your defy.

Baseband switcher
I had this issue also after installing a custom rom.
You need to make sure you select the correct baseband for your phone (not for your location) then reboot. Also I had to clear my data/cache from the boot recovery first. then i had to reboot the phone twice after setting the baseband.
so you may have to figure out if yours is the UK baseband (mine was)

Friend did not work ..... Thanks for the tip
The best advice I can give you is to head over to the milestone 2 android development forums, go to endless7's cm7 thread, and download the toolbox+baseband+others.rar file from his first post. Extract it and install baseband switcher, then open it and select to cghange to brazil baseband. You will need to reboot phone to apply the changes so say yes when prompted.
If that fails, try doing a data/cache wipe (do it twice for good luck) and a dalvik chache wipe from CWM recovery. Then reboot and retry my first suggestion.
Should that fail, I recommend restoring your stock firmware - there is a guide to doing this on these forums. I can't remeber where, but there is a sticky thread in ms2 android development that links to it.
Perhaps something messed up while putting the GB rom on your phone, and trying again from scratch might be the best option

Missing boot partion!

Does anyone know how to restore the boot partion? I think that this time I achieved to brick my phone. I tried to (read: FAILED) to downgrade the latest 2.3.5 and now no matter what I do, all I get is "update failed messages." I can't get into recovery (CWM or the standard) since when I boot my phone to the pink screen, nothing happens; no partion shows up anywhere. BLAH!

For new users!!

This is a humble requests on behalf of all the noobies!!
I request the seniors in this forum to post a thread on how to root, install recovery and other preliminary stuff. One thread that contains all the trivial info on flashing new roms would be very convenient.
Please explain it step by step for the new users. By doing so you can encourage more and more users to download and use the custom roms.

It is critically important that you specify your exact model. "Ideos X5 U8800" applies to three or four different devices. I turned one U8800-51 into a paperweight by not appreciating the differences.

Just so you know. CWM is not foolproof. I had one device that CWM was unable to rescue from the CWM recovery boot.

You'll need to flash a SBF for that. Rooting depends on your build number. What is it.?

with 4.2 cwm puts the backups to the /0 partition of the sdcard... annoying.... you have to move it to your sdcard then move it on your phone from the sd to the sd/0 cwm folder.... i hope that makes sense

Please correct me if I'm wrong but...
As far as I know, rumrunner needs the right firmware installed, so this won't help anyone unless they already have a firmware installed that is supported by rumrunner.
Eg my firmware is 2.24.61.1 (CID ORANGE001)
So rumrunner wont work.
Ive been trying to find an RUU for x.x.61.x to send to them so they can add support but have had no luck.
