Faced same issue and fixed
I faced same issue tonight.
After going through some forums I realized I had to try flashing various Froyo SBFs hoping one of them will revive my defy.
I tried a 4-5 SBFs, then updated RSD Lite to v5.6 and flashed this SBF:
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
This worked.
same Err:A5,69,35,00,27 in Bootloader 09.10
tried some fixed sbf from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1691901
none did go
googled err-message, came here, beautiful timing
same solution, thanks Dexter!

[Q] Boot loop problem

hi,
im going to explain the whole story so you can understand my problem
so i whas playing around with my hero, suddenly their whas an update(using stock rom) and wth i did it.. well my device updated and after that whas done the phone wont boot anymore.. just stands there on the hero logo..
so i tried to flash the stock rom(from htc's website) using fastboot.. but when i start the ruu it doest recieve the information and gives me error 170(usb connection failed)
i got a hero from europe, with stock rom ..
hope there is and answer..
tanx in advance
sounds pretty bricked. i suppose that this was an OTA update SPL and radio and everything. if something goes wrong there you're pretty much screwed..
So you do have fastboot with S-off? If you can get into fastboot use a custom rom from the dev forum.

[Q] what sbf should I flash (I bricked my defy)

so, I bricked my defy
I was on cm7 7.2 kang, then I flashed the white rabbit and that was ok
after that I accidentaly flashed the miui rom pikachu without a wipe
and was stuck at boot logo...
so I downloaded the 2.2.2 Service Flash Central Europe because nordic was unavailable
now, all I got is the white led on the defy, can't even boot into bootloader
what to do?
what sbf should I use??
please help
Many others with the same problem:

Can you remember what previous sbf's you flashed?
Normally RDS will detect your phone when you plug it in.
Try to remember witch sbf's you have flashed and flash one with the same bl number.
You can try to download the sbf again and install it from a different pc. If you think you never flashed a gingerbread rom.
For a good link to the CEE sbf:
http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt...RDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.gz
read before you flash
i thought it is near impossible to brick defy as its boot loader is locked ... reading saves a lot of time.

You CAN brick it . If you get a power-out on the exact wrong time f.i.
Or you use a USB-cable with a knick in it...
Best thing is not to flash a rom with a bl version higher than your official released as then you can always claim warranty (If your not over the warranty data of course)

[Q] Devy [email protected] ROM

Hey guys,
I was running CM 7.1 on my devy without problems for a year till my speaker broke yesterday. I wanted to return to stock to send it for repare on monday but somewhere I made a huge mistake.
To make a long story short, after trying all sorts of roms, I am stuck at the JORDN_U3_97.21.51.sbf rom. It is the only one that even boots! The other ones result in a dead black screen and I'm feeling lucky that I still even can use rsd-lite to get the 97.21.51 back....
What to do? Which retail version can I use? I have a dutch phone and had official Froyo before I installed CM 7.1. I already tried all ROMS from germany, western europe and [email protected] http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordan/list.php ...
Also I can't install clockwork mod because market doesn't work @ 97.21.51 and installing it by zip with 2nd init also gave a error... Going back to cm 7.1 by installing it with 2nd init didn''t work eather (bootloop) .
Please some help here to get my phone to retail status so I can send my phone for repair of the speaker!

Make sure that u r using the latest RSD and drivers.
Make sure that u r using the latest RSD and drivers.
If still after using the latest RDS u can't boot with the SBF u want, use the one which boots and boot to stock recovery (power + volume down) and clean every thing then try flashing with RSD the SBF u want.
I'm not responsible for any thing happens to your phone. (to don't get blamed if any thing happens)
Thank you for the reply. This is the method I have been trying for the last 24 hours (without result). RSD 4.9 and latest drivers as far as I know.
I think it more has to do with the type SBF. Anyone got a tip which SBF best to use in my situation?
Looks the desktop of your defy after flashing the ORDN_U3_97.21.51.sbf rom like the image in the attachement?
If yes, you have unfortunally flashed the strange eclair SBF with CG5 (bootloader 5).
All normal froyo-SBFs that you will flashing in future have only CG4 (bootloader 4).
If you flash the "normal" froyo-SBFs you will ending in a black screen after RSDLite finished his work. RSDLite will eventually show you, "FLASH suceed". But the flashed Bootloader is lower than CG5 and so you will ending in a dead black screen.
You cannot go back to official froyo, the only thing you can do is to install defy2ndinit, flash a a fitting nandroid froyo for the "strange eclair-SBF" and flash a fixed-SBF of a 4.5.1-128.
The service center will normally repair your speaker for free because the fault is not caused by OS.
But they also will flash a normal froyo for service, and this will ending in a black screen.
EDIT:
You can try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24961811&postcount=2 to take back your defy to a froyo-version which contains Bootloader 6 but still a froyo OS.
@Rattor , thanks for your reply. It doesn't sound to well but at least I have hope again to bring my Devy in normal state... I have send it for repare of the speaker today. I wunder with what firmware it will return...
Got a mail from the service center today. They send the Devy to another (external) repair center... Curious how it will return.. THis could get interesting.... (temporarly on windows mobile 6.5 now (HTC TOPAZ) => going crazy!!!! 2 batterys per day and SOO slow)
BTW. the screen did look like the attached image RATTAR!
Devy back!
Hey,
Today I finally got my devy back! Speaker working and even an official ROM on it. Version.34.164.3.MB525.retail.en.FR.
Let's make a backup first!

[Q] Bricked EU Droid Pro?

Hello guys,
I got one Droid Pro EU version from my friend, he tried to flash phone with this SBF file: VRZ_XT610_4.6.8_user_signed_1FF.sbf because he had some boot loop problem. He is a little bit crazy and dont know to much about flashing phones and "IT" at all. I dont know why he even tried to flash... But after flash his phone cant boot, there is this error in Bootloader (v. 03.0C):
Err:A5,70,70,00,1F
MEM_MAP Blank
Service Reqd
Before flash he had in the phone 2.3.3 CM7. Boot to recovery is not possible.
Any idea what version of SBF should I try to flash for fix it? Or is it even fixable?
And what about the "VRZ" in the name of SBF. Isnt it shortcut for "Verizon"?
Thanks in advance
UPDATE 04/02/2012 21:22: I successfully bring the phone up by flashing this sbf VIILA_U4_4.5.2_51-28_R01_SIGNED_STABLE45LAVENUSGBPERAR_P012_A027_M003_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
(I found on web some another cases, bricked Droid Pro, and this SBF helps them).
Phone is running, so tomorrow will be continuing. (Checking of GSM, root and flash of CM7). I hope other problems will not occur.
