I really think the SBF of the Experimental is having different SBF CG files. Maybe lower in CG from before.
Thats why the problem. With the build
Might have to start with Full Re-instalation of SBF

I was trying to flash different rom's cm10.1 older than 26.05.2013 even cm10, but every time I get the same black screen with red led, right after moto logo.
I must say that before I install 26.05.2013 I made a full wipe (cache/data/system).
Can help someone?

I'm changing back and forth from 0904 and 2705, coz 2705 has a problem - Motocast WiFi won't work on it - everything else no problems at all, even flashed 4.2.2 Gapps on 2705 -but then Store refused to connect only..didn't want to mess with it so re-flashed only older Gapps (minimal) then. .. 2705 seems to have different USB drivers too..manual unmounting the SD card..
Well try this : Full wipe of system and dalvik cache , then flash 2705 then flash gapps , and now optional step i never had to do - again clear system and cache..
Hope it works for you.
I tried to flash also 16.06 and cm10.1-16.06 but nothing, still the same black screen with red led.
again any idea anyone???
thanx

Try rm -rf /system/* instead of system wipe. I think somethink is buggy in TWRP and "system wipe" is not fully wipes the system partition. After "rm ...", flash cm10-16.06 and 20121011 gapps.
(Sorry for my bad english )

Hi guys, I am experiencing an endless bootloop after installing the latest MIUI, reverted to previous version. Just wondering how many others are also affected, because some people don't seem to be having any problems with it.
Sent from my u8800 using XDA Premium App
Me too... it happened on 1.8.19 too. I solved it with a wipe the first time, but not now... cant do this everytime. I stay at 1.8.19 until its fixed.
use miui's thread

When your X5 turns on, is it the black screen saying 'IDEOS' or the white screen with the red logo with 'HUAWEI'?
I had this issue too, perform a full wipe, dalvik cache, everything, and then install the zip file.

doesn't work :/ as soon as wi fi goes on, boot loop starts
are you sure you wiped everything? i had the same issue and this fixed it
When you have bootloops, connect the device with usb cable, open a command prompt and run -> adb logcat
Then you will be able to see the errors arround the loop and maybe understand what is fault.
If you cannot, post the results to the original thread, so the developer to can help you.
FIX
To fix this, before flashing, go into Root Explorer, into /data and delete the 'misc' folder. (/data/misc)
Flash will then work and reboot loop is fixed
Mine is with white screen, black box and there is no X5 logo at the back of phone and ROM works good, no loops. But few times there was that it won't boot-just black screen and stuck. Anyway CM7 is better for me.

Did you flash the correct sbf?
How long are you stuck at the Motorola logo? Give a bit more information =P
It's most likely not bricked as it's almost impossible to brick the defy.. (I've never heard of it)

Red or Green Lens? Defy or Defy+?
If Red Lens then you can use Defy or Defy+ build straight from Froyo after installing 2nd init.
If Red Lens Defy with Defy+ build, you will need a battery fix
If Red Lens Defy with Defy build, nothing else needs to be installed
If Green Lens Defy, you can only use Defy build. Nothing else needs to be installed.

I believe that little android guy is the stock recovery. From what I remember you hold both volume buttons and it takes you into stock recovery.
Unfortunately, you will no longer have 2nd init installed, which allows for CWM recovery, so you can't flash a zip from there.
How long does it stay stuck on the blur logo? Maybe you're just not waiting long enough? (Stupid question I know, but some people complain after 2 minutes, the first boot can take a long time!)
Try looking at This thread and see if the link which is in this post will work to download the Taiwanese SBF. For me it doesn't seem to load
Edit: - Oh the Taiwanese SBF did eventually download. Took about 5 minutes with the tab open loading. I've uploaded it to my Dropbox so you can download from there... should be a bit faster!

Thanks for helping me out....
The motorola logo stays around for 20 seconds after with the Motorola boot animation starts.....
So i left my defy on for around 20 mins and nothing is happening its still playing the boot animation. !!
I havent yet downloaded the sbf link you have given me as i am at work now and will be able to do that only when i reach home.
Another thing i have noticed is that i am able to charge my defy....that means the rom is present and hopefully working !!
What say....???
Have you done Factory Reset????
1- turn off your phone (take the battery out and then put it back in)
2- press and HOLD the volume DOWN button + power button
3- Motorola logo appears first, then after a few seconds an 'android ROBOT logo' appears
4- press volume UP and DOWN buttons at once, quickly
5- from the menu choose 'factory reset/wipe-format data'
6- then do 'wipe cache'
7- then do a reboot
see if it helps and you are able to start the phone normally
Euro your awesome!!

It's a Defy with green lens and it had stock T-Mobile Froyo (rooted) before flash to CM7.
I'm now back to CM7 as CM10 didn't want to work.

hey buddy...m sorry i didnt quite get you....
As per my understanding i believe your phone is working fine with CM7 installed and you want to install CM10 on your defy !!
am i correct !!
if you then let me make it clear that the latest CM10 build used a custom kernel made by quarx himself....it is not running a froyo or gb kernel...
so here is what you need to do....
1. simply factory reset your phone...clear cache and dalvik...
2. now flash the latest CM10 build
3. again...clear cache and dalvik...
4. and now let defy boot....first boot may take a longer time....
hope this works for u...if it does not...let me know...will b glad to help u...

Yes, you are correct. the phone is working fine with CM7.
Factory reset, you mean from boot menu or the hard factory reset with holding volume keys (procedure posted above in this thread)?
The first time I actually tried, I did flash of CM10 without the prior kernel flash and it didn't work either.
so do I need any kernel flash or do I just flash it with CM10 and it should work?
I'll try again later today or tomorrow.

Lots of us who had bootloops trying to flash CM10 24/09 with a BL5 base SBF solved the problem by flashing a BL6 base Froyo SBF.
But try a factory reset and flashing your stock T-Mobile Froyo first.
If your stock doesn't flash properly then it means you have inadvertently flashed something which updated your BL version to BL5.
I flashed the JDGC_U6.2.13.0 SBF which is BL6 and then I was fine.
Don't use this ROM though, just use it as a stepping-stone to install CM10.

Hi
I tried to update from from Eppy's JB 20120806 version.
I have a green lens MB525.
I believe I am running BL5. I think I used cm7.1.0-RC0-jordan-signed as my original SBF.
Up until this ROM I have had no problems updating from GB-ICS-JB.
After wiping cache & dalvik I installed the 11/10 version. All goes well and the boot changes to 2ndBoot.
I get Red moto logo, blue LED, then Red led then reboots or just stays with the red led and a blank screen.
Pulled the battery and I get the same.
I tried to load the 29/08 ROM and this did the same thing as well.
Do I need to update to BL6 or something?
I have returned the phone to the pre flashed state using the backup. So all is still working ok.
Any ideas and thanks for your help
Regards
A noob

You just have to wait for it to boot. The screen goes blank when the LED switched from blue to red on my phone, too, but then it comes back on after some time, with the bootanimation. At first boot I think that lasted for maybe even 20 seconds. Much shorter on later boots.
But that couldn't have happened with the 29th of August build... Maybe you left your phone set to boot from 2ndboot, while that built is supposed to work by booting from 2ndInit?
P.S. cm7.1.0-RC0-jordan-signed is not an SBF file, it's a custom ROM that comes in a flashable zip. SBF files are in .sbf format silly and are flashed to the phone from the PC via RSDlite. Just so you know!

Hi and thanks for the reply and help.
I left the phone on for about 10 minutes with only the red led on. There seemed to be no activity.
I did not check to see if the boot was set back to 2ndinit. Can try that.
I found this file 3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC it is a SBF. I may have used this to start with after rooting. It was over 14mths ago.

Update. Tried to install 2409 Rom and made sure that I wiped the cache & dalvik. Also checked that it was set to 2ndinit.
Still looped. So am unsure what is going on. Rather frustrating.
Hi, flash your sbf, then 2init and then flash your cm you want.

Hi, i have some questions about the 2ndboot updates. I had tested cm10 for a while now (but currently in cm7.2), but i got a little lost with this whole kernel update.
1st of all, in quarx page i don't see a "cm10-2ndboot-nightly-defy/" folder, just the one for defy+, this new builds are only for defy plus yet?, or there work on both devices?
and if they do, how sould i install them, do they change to 2ndboot by themselves or do i have to do it myself?

They are for both and no change is required from your part in the bootmenu settings
I've tried flashing 10.11 and update.zip today, with no luck.
I first tried flashing over my original cm10 (9.12 - froyo kernel, on green lens) - wiped cache, then dalvik.
boot loops on red led
then i tried wiping all data/cache and flashing both again
same boot loops
next i tried flashing a new sbf (t mobile usa 2.1 updated to 2.2 - then rooted and 2ndinit)
now still waiitng at red led on boot, but no boot loops.
I have read the bootup time is very long the first time, but I've let it sit over 15 minutes, and tried a battery pull and let it sit another 15 minutes.
I am about to try again from nordic deblur 2.2 sbf
Am i doing something wrong? I'm not an expert at this stuff, but i'm usually pretty good about following directions. please help!
Amazing job again Quarx and everyone!
Start fresh; use the ultimate wiper for defy and flash cm11/10, and them flash only update v2

next i tried flashing a new sbf (t mobile usa 2.1 updated to 2.2 - then rooted and 2ndinit)
now still waiitng at red led on boot, but no boot loops.
I have read the bootup time is very long the first time, but I've let it sit over 15 minutes, and tried a battery pull and let it sit another 15 minutes.
I am about to try again from nordic deblur 2.2 sbf
Am i doing something wrong? I'm not an expert at this stuff, but i'm usually pretty good about following directions. please help!
Amazing job again Quarx and everyone!

I think You've misundersttod my friend. There no long time of bootlooping. Theres a long first boot. Boot lopping shouldn't happen continuously.
Maybe following the steps below from a post on the defy general forum should help

OOk guys so I found this thread which shows MS2 got a custom kernel. The proceduce is bit difficult but can be modified for working for Defy too.
Hope has struck back again.

Update: 2ndboot module sources are here:

BIGNOTE: Green lens users who flashed redlens builds please dont try using flash, you will end up burning it like me and many others.
STEPS TO FOLLOW WHEN YOU HAVE BOOTLOOPS OR BLACK SCREEN WITH RED LED ON:
-1st of all set default boot to 2nd-boot
-Go to recovery and flash the 24.9 build
-Then flash the kernel 6.10
-After that flash the latest build
-Wait and you will have your phone working proper.

Also you cont just go down to a previous sbf version. Youve flashed a custom kernel. You would need to go to your standard kernel which you would find elsewhere. I think the CM10 faqs have the 525 and 526 kernels
i followed the same procedure as last time, but this time starting from the nordic deblur sbf and everything worked fine. no bootloops. long first boot time. If anyone tries this, do NOT use the official tmobile USA sbf. didn't work for me at all. I'm guessing that's why i had problems with 9/24 build as well.
Flashing nordic to workaround red led + black screen ?

Hi,
Your message rings a bell to me !
I have tried to flash cm10 18/10 + update_v4 on my Defy (green lens) but I have failed, I always get stuck on red led + black screen. Waiting or removing battery and retrying did not help. Wiping did not help either. I am coming from cm7, had never flashed cm9 or cm10 before, and before cm7 my phone was on french froyo stock rom 3.4.2-164.
Do you think I should try to flash another sbf, such as nordic deblur sbf as you did ?
Is your bootloop like that:
Splashscreen -> red LED + black screen -> Splashscreen -> red LED + black screen
If yes, you should think about upgrading your bootloader...
Had the same problem and was on BL5, some people in Support thread had the same prob on BL5...
So I flashed this chinese rom, rooted and upgraded to cm10 and everything worked fine for me.
Use this SBF just as a stepstone to CM10, because it may break your flashlight or ****.
Make sure you have snd-init on your sd, cause there is no gapps on the sbf...
well thats it...

In my case, it's not looping, it is stucked on red led + black screen.
did you wipe cache and dalvik?
or did you try a clean installation?
wich sbf was the last one you flashed?
Hi folks!
I think I've messed up my workphone (Defy MB525) in some wierd way.
I had Cyanogen Mod 10 installed and should only do an update to another nightly, but by mistake I chose a cm7-file instead and flashed it. After that I got stuck in a bootloop, whatever ROM i tried to install or how I did :/
I then tried to reset the phone with an original SBF-file using RSD Lite 5.6. The sbf-file I am using is JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTCEE_P016_A016_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf (found in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1828639 first post)
My intention fo flash the sbf-file was to restore the phone to its original state and from that point re-rooting it and after that install cm10 again.
But now to my problem, I just cant to do anything with the phone. The screen is all black and I cannot do anything :/
RSD Lite recognizes the phone and I can flash sbf-files to it. It goes to 100% progress but when it is supposed to boot up after flashing, it takes just a second or so...and RSD Lite then says "Passed" on result leaving me with the black screen yet again.
Only time I can see something on the screen is during the flashing. The sceen says "SW update In progress...". Other then that, always black:crying:
Really really stuck here and dont know what to do. If anyone has an idea and the time to help me, I would be in ever grateful!
Best regards,

Download that, unrar it to a folder
Flash Firmware 1, let the phone boot up and done.
If you want ROOT, enter to Motorola Recovery (Volume up + power, when the Android appears press Volume up + Volume down) then factory reset and wipe data, reboot phone on BL mode (Volume down + power) and flash Firmware 2.

Thanks a ton for helping me in desperate times
I managed to get the phone working again using your files and this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982
Then I got the problem with 128mb internal memory, but solved it.
Now I have cm9 up and running with no issues. I tried Epsylons CM10 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1768702 but it lagged and were really really slow for some reaseon :/
Epsylon builds are outdated, you should try Quarx CM10 or CM10.1

Thanks, had some issues installing Quarx CM10. Never managed to get it up and running, might've been a kernel issue or something. The led just turns RED :/
On my Google Nexus CM10 was more smooth then 10.1, so I figured I'd better try CM10 on the defy due to weaker hardware. But I might have wrong there since I havent tried.
Did you wipe cache?

Make sure that you are using latest Quarx build (http://quarx2k.ru/cm10.1-nightly-defy+/2.6.32/cm-10.1-20130415-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip)
What OS are you using right now? no problem mate
That is the file I've tried but for some reason I just cant get passed the red motorola-logo. the phone gets stuck in a bootloop like this; Red Motorola-Logo, LED turns green...Red Motorola-logo...and then it loops like that. Dont know what to do :/
I use Win 7 x64.

Do this:
Enter recovery
Wipe cache, data and dalvik
Install Quarx CM10 (http://quarx2k.ru/cm10-2ndboot-nightly-defy(+)/CM10-20130409-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip)
Install 4.1.2 gApps (http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip)
Reboot and let it boot up.
Once you are with CM10, do this:
Enter recovery
Wipe cache, data and dalvik
Install Quarx CM10.1 (http://quarx2k.ru/cm10.1-nightly-defy+/2.6.32/cm-10.1-20130415-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip)
Install 4.2.2 gApps (http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20130301-signed.zip)

I think I give up. Dont understand what I am doing wrong. Have rooted and installed custom roms on htc hero, htc sensation xe, htc wildfire, galaxy nexus..but this phone. Neever had even close to the issues I'm having with this one :/
I followd your steps on installing cm10. But when both the rom and gapps are installed and I reboot it reboot the following happends; red motorola-log, blue led - red led. And bootloop. Nothing else :/
Read somewhere that I have to install a kernel separately, is that true?

Nope, the kernel is on the .zip
Are you sure that you wiped data and cache?

It is advised to wipe cache and Dalvic cache after installing zip files.
Moreover, when I installed full Gapps I got system partition full, so instead I installed minimal Gapps:

I simply dont know if I'm doing something wrong (think not) or if my phone is messed up. But I get the same result after following your guides several times. I cant get passed the motorola-logo after flashing cm10. The Led turns red (indicating somethings wrong?) and then reboots again. Keeps going adn going :/
