Hi there i had a problem 2 month ago installing 2endint on my defy anyway i installed CM7 using the custom recovery, now i have CWM installed so i was wonder if i can install MS2Ginger over CM7 thanks
I've not had success with it. I usually have to flash a Froyo SBF before going to a Gingerblur ROM.

i was able to install ms2 ginger over cm7 and again cm7
Yes, you can. However, after installing the CM7 zip, you need to flash this fixed sbf using RSD Lite.

what is this fixed sbf for ? and should i flashed it after i install MS2Ginger ? thanks
You wipe data in 2ndinit, boot into the flashing menu, flash fixed sbf, reboot phone ibto 2nd init recovery, advanced restore, boot, then system, then devtree, then data, then reboot

ok so this fixed SBF for CM7 in case i wanna come back from MS2Ginger to CM7 right ?
Yes, that's right. After you install the CM7 zip from clockworkmod, hold up button while rebooting and flash this fixed sbf using RSD Lite. Make sure you clear data and cache from clockworkmod after flashing the fixed sbf.
another question its maybe out of the thread but does it matter that i didnt use 2endinit to install CM7 or not ? coz i used custom recovery i mean is there any side effects ?
Yes, there could be some problems. You should install 2nd init, format data and cache, install CM7 and install the fixed sbf after that. Should work fine then.

If you are using goapkrev recovery, then the backup goes into sdcard/goapkrev/backup
If the folder doesn't exist, make it.
thanks it worked thanks mate!

Yes you can flash gapps again but remember to clear the cache after you flash it.
EDIT: Try clearing data and cache from clockworkmod again. Also, disable the overclock module from 2nd init and see if it works after that.

Are you blind or what? Did you try my suggestions in the other post? Did you try formatting data+cache from clockworkmod? Also, disable the overclock module from 2nd init

i tried clearing them but it is still restarting at that cm7 loop.
what to do.
Download the nightly this time from tanguy.forumdoandroid.com and flash it again. Clear data and cache and see if it works now.

hello,
is it possible to switch from cm7.1-nightly to ms2ginger easily?
(cm7.1 is android v. 2.3.7 with kernel 2.32.9)
regards
Yes you can do that easily. The ms2Ginger thread has enough information on how to do that. I have switched twice from Cm7 to ms2g and vice versa.
In a nut shell just restore the manseoid back up of ms2g system, data, boot , dev tree and recovery. Before you do this just take nandroid backup of your current cm 7, which can be useful to switch back at later time if needed.

CM7.2 is for Defy+ which uses GB kernel.
You can either flash CM7 kernel if it works, otherwise go to advance restore and restore boot and devtree from MS2 nandroid.

I am searching for the instructions too:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1468867&page=2
Will work the ms2ginger with cg version 6?
Anyone?
I had managed to get working, with instruction in the ms2ginger topic
To begin:
Put the Nandroid backup folder MS2Ginger on the SDCard in this folder: /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup
Root your DEFY and Install BOOTMENU - CWM (2ndInit-Installer 2.0.apk - install 1.0.7) or use this SndInitDefy_2.0.apk
REBOOT
run 2nd-init (voldown on blue LED)
wipe data and cache in "Stable/Custom - Recovery"
Go to "Recovery"
Go to "Latest Recovery"
Go to "Backup and Restore"
Go to "Restore" (system+data)
reboot.
Booting up can take a while, max is about 10 minutes.
THEN(if you want to try also the 3.0)
wipe data/cache/dalvik; Do an advanced recovery and only restore system and data from 3.0NG.
I accidentaly installed the CM9 kernel when i should have installed the CM7 one with ICS. Then i made a nandroid restore of my previous CM7. Than... phone dead. Starting but no CWM no ROM booting.
As i have had CM7 with GB kernel( i think) i flashed ( not knowing) an old SBF than didn't booted. I tried the JORDN_U3_97.21.51 T-Mobile It boots, i can root it, install CWM.
But than when i try to install a CM7 nightly ( installed ok) it dies again. Starts but No CWM no Rom booting.
What to do? I don't know what SBF to flash or what method to install?
Problem update I red that the above SBF has a CG Version 3: SBF 2.51 (Éclair) (Defy) so i installed several CG Version 4: SBF 3.4.2 (Froyo) (Defy).
They don't work. RSD says PASS but phone is dead .No stock recovery no boot. Only way to get it back to life is if i flash the eclair again.
I red that if i get a back screen when booting i have installed a lower CG version. As i tested with version 4, version 5 GB is the only option. I didn't try it out because there are some issues. Froyo would have been much more easier.
i think many readers of your post are getting problems with understanding your problem ...
you got a stock defy, rooted it, installed 2ndinit via apk, booted into recovery (vol- at blue led) and installed CM7 zip ??? correct ???
after succesfull install of CM7 your phone doesn't turn on? Black screen?
black screen after zip is (i think) impossible ... but i can fail ...
i would like to help you, but first you have to give the detailed steps you did and what you wanted to do ...
To make it simplier
I installed the JORDN_U3_97.21.51 T-Mobile (which is 2.1 update1) It boots, i can root it, install 2nd-init > CWM. Set Normal boot.
Than in CWM nothing works.
Installing a CM7 nightly, or restoring a CWM backup.
I install a CM7 nightly like this> In CWM> Custom Recovery> Wipe data, wipe cache> install Cm7 zip, install Gaaps zip. After this, phone restarts, screen is on, logo appears and i wait and wait. Nothing happens.
Do i have to install a special CM7 build?
The CWM backup does not restore. It says that files are missing ( like android.secure..) I am not interested in keeping downgrade ability. i would like to try another SBF. I am not 100% sure what SBF to use from the wiki page.
I red that the SBF i installed has some special "problems" here> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=905371. They are talking of a CWM revoery app by tenfair here> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=875233
Maybe that works^. Will try it after the phone is fully charged.
so, ok ... thats detailed as i wish
ok, the problem is clear i think ... first of all eclair is not a nice system for a defy ... upgrade to froyo or even gingerbread ... (keep in mind, that GB has problems with green lens camera) ...
than you can root it with SuperOneClick e.g. ... if this is running correctly, you can install 2ndinit via apk ... then boot, vol- while blue led (i know, you know how ) ... in that clockworkmod recovery you can wipe the devices data and cache partition (even wipe dalvik cache in advanced menu) ... then install CM7.2-nightly-.... .zip ... you may have to flash an fixed sbf with the nessesary kernel for CM7 at this point to boot ...
if this is working fine, you can install the gapps.zip via recovery ...
also try to set boot to 2ndinit in boot-menu ... i don't think it's "normal" boot for CM7 ... but i can't try at the moment cause of my bricked defy ...
Thanks for the reply.
The problem is that i can't install other Froyo SBF's. Will try Gingerbread SBF. The last froyo didn't boot, will try a new one. Weird, i know. Maybe someone can tell me which CM7 to flash? An older one with Kernel ? I didn't think the install would be so tricky.
Froyo Full-SBF doesn't boot on your defy?
be aware of flashing Gingerbread then ... if GB doesn't boot, you will have a problem downgrading to froyo / eclair ...
it sonds crazy, that froyo isn't booting on your device ... have you done a full wipe after froyo sbf? it's important ...
I'm on the Eclair SBF right now. What should i do? Go into recovery and do a wipe or install a new Froyo SBF? It's about the CG value maybe. I understand the mechanism but don't know how to check the CG value. If i search for my current eclair SBF i get all sorts of weird stuff. Nevertheless i will try and try until i succeed. It took me a while to figure out the Rooting method. Superoneclick does not work. It's a special method for the 2.51.
The thing is that i wanted to go the my Nordic SBF( the one Quarx used during the first days of CM7) and it didn't booted. That's why i tried this one. Funny ho flashing the wrong kernel(CM9 instead of CM7) can brake things like this. What i don't understand is how my CWM backup didn't restore. It restored well, finished, then phone dead. No CWM.
edit: i just red: 2.51 is Not downgradable. But no downgrade to what??? Will try to some Froyo SBF's, see if works. But that does not solve my CM7 issues.
Tried a few Froyo SBF's. Wiped data/cache in Stock Recovery. RSD says PASS than phone does not boot. Only the 21.51 eclair works all the time.....Where next?
Update 2 got it to work with this>

OMG i dn't understand what was going on with your defy, but i'm happy to know your on the road again
the only sbf that are running are the stock eclair you have (21.51) and the modded BL6 with Froyo Kernel ???
Glad it worked.

Yes but now i am running CM9 flawlessly. So happy. The only thing that bothers me is the Chinese Boot screen )). But that can be changed. It's great that one SBF works, moded or not. I tried like 6,7 other Stock sbf's before. So a message to whom tries to install SBF's: Stay away from JORDN_U3_97.21.51 SBF. Even the Rooting method is awful (until you find it) .
HI Deonix, I have the similar problem. However I am unable to use RSDlite as it gives a failure messg when u click start. I tried JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.7.sbf and JRDNEM_U3_2.59.0_CHN_P3_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B50AA028.0R_USAJORDANRTINT15_P003_A020_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf.
Both failed, I will try using the rsdlite after the cache and factory rest this time based on your suggestions. Can you tell, if your adb command was listing your device, as mine is not.
my CWM is also gone I get some old android recovery system 3e instead which fails after signature check.
Hi,
I think I know what is your problem.
I also installed the firmware JORDN_U3_97.21.51 and now I can only install any Custom ROM after installing the firmware fix for JORDN_U3_97.21.51.
I did upload it for you: http://www.4shared.com/rar/o02VEk_v/firmware.html?refurl=d1url
It is the following:
Install JORDN_U3_97.21.51;
Rootear;
Install the Recovery;
Install the fix;
enter the recovery and install any rom you want, remembering to delete the caches (data and Dalvik cache)
ps: have 100% of the battery before installing the SBF.
any problems let me know.
Sometimes you could get stuck in a bootloop and all you need to do is pull battery and reboot

Hey bro.
Even i have got the Defy working, but its not detecting the device when connected to the computer, i have done all the basic troubleshooting, is it working for you??
is it bcoz this room is for ME525??
Hey guys, I'm a but stuck..
I was running Gingerbread 2.3.5 and I saw that CM11 was out on the x5, and that I could flash it from 2.3.5. I flashed CWM 6.0.4.6 and tried flashing from there.. But it failed. I also tried flashing CM10 and Aurora but those both failed too. Error 7 or something.
So now I've only got a phone with CWM on it.. I tried flashing a stock rom back on it but the update fails. Where can I get the correct rom/recovery?
Or if its better how can I fix it from CWM?
Hope this made sense, I'm tired!
U must update your partitions use blepart then go for cm11 good luck
