While trying cm9 red lens battery fix my phone just stucked on the bootloader. So i flashed the sbf file for my region and now my defy+ is stucked in bootloops and i tried to flash sbf 3 to 4 times. But still no result. Guys help me please cause this is my first phone....... Thanx in advance
You're not flashing a SBF with lower BL version than you are already on.. Right??
PS: It isn't bricked. Its said to be bricked when it is a brick.
dont worry its easy to restore..
after flashing sbf, go to recovery (vol down+power)..when u get android with "!" logo press both volume up n down buttons together (better press in middle)..
in stock recovery clear data, cache & reboot..
hope thus helps..happened to me too..2 months back..

And if that doesn't work, you could always flash a stock SBF via RSD Lite, from the stock recovery (vol up + power)...
Questions go in the Q&A section
it happened to me too, don't be afraid, just calm down and "doesn't spend unnecessary energy from the battery"
with the wipes all will be alright
can any one please help me how to install those roms

Hey there!
The defy+ comes with bl7 so you've got to root it with this method(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1595013&page=5)
1. Shut down the phone>Press the button Volume Down and keep it pressed>Press the buton Power On>A Yelow Triangle with an Android will appear>Pres both Volume buttons>A menu will appears>Navigate up/down with the Volume buttons and Accept with Power buttons> sellect Whipe Data and Factory Reset and then Whipe cache>Select Reboot from menu and press imediately the Volume UP buton>the phone will enter in Bootloader Mode (is ready for flash process)>Connect it to PC
2. The Flashing proces is done on PC with the phone connected. You must install RDS Lite and Motorola USB Drivers (after installing drivers restart the PC.
Run installed RDS Lite as Administrator (if you use Windows Vista or 7). Click on [ … ] Button and select your .SBF file and click Open.
Boot your phone into Bootloader Mode (as I said at point 1.).
Now connect your Defy to your PC (if is not already connected)
The START button on RSD Lite should be available now, click and wait.
Don't disconnect until RDS Lite will show PASS.
Now your defy plus is rooted.
Now you have to install 2ndint. It gives you recovery menu.
Now you can go to recovery and flash any rom you want as per your wish.
i've did used this method a bilion of times , and evrey time after i flash the new rom phone gets bricked or into bootloop :\
When installing MS2Ginger, go to Backup and restore -> Advanced restore -> /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/MS2Ginger and restor system only. Then restore devtree and recovery. Don't restore boot as this is the kernel, which is for lower BL version, therefore causing a bootloop or a soft brick. I haven't flashed a BL7 Defy+ with MS2Ginger and am not 100% sure it will work, but theoretically, if anything would work, it would be this.
it works..

When I press vol -, nothing happens. Defy not be included in the stock recovery mode. Works only vol + (botloader).
Holding both volume down and power button even after the Motorola logo should get you into the stock recovery I.e android with an exclamation. From there holding both volume buttons should be enough. If this does not work then an sbf flash is necessary

If you are stuck with BL7, there's no way to downgrade from it.
Now, you'll have to follow this tutorial here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542956
It's simple. And if you do everything described, there's no way you will solve your problem.
After this, you'll be able to flash any Custom ROM.
Good Luck.
"1. Wipe phone twice (2x make Wipe Data/Cache in stock recovery)"
I can't enter the stock recovery in that my problem.: (

So, you are stuck in the Boot Loader screen?
Try following those steps:
1. Flash the .sbf file (4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE) directly from RSD Lite.
2. Reboot. Even if you get stuck in a bootlooping screen, hold Vol. Down Key while booting. Once inside de Stock Recovery screen, press both Vol. Down and Up keys at same time and do a Wipe.
3. After that, flash the rooted SBF 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SBF from RSD Lite

As far as I know, if your ROM enters in the M Logo, you should be able to get in the stock recovery.
This is one of the good things about having a locked bootloader.
Remember to press the Vol. Down Key on the right time, when the LED turns on for a while.
If it doesn't work, try holding the Vol. Down Key and then press the Power button to turn it on.
After that, in the Recovery Screen, press both Vol. Down and Vol. Up keys at the same time to access the Recovery Menu.
Please, let me know if it worked.
Good Luck.

As I told before, it's normal to get a bootloop in the DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CN_SIGN.
After flashing this one, you still have to flash the 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SBF.
Reposting the steps:
1. Flash the .sbf file (4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE) directly from RSD Lite.
2. Reboot. Even if you get stuck in a bootlooping screen, hold Vol. Down Key while booting. Once inside de Stock Recovery screen, press both Vol. Down and Up keys at same time and do a Wipe.
3. After that, flash the rooted SBF 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SBF from RSD Lite
If you can't wipe, just flash it with RSD Lite from the bootloader screen. To get there, hold Vol. Up Key while turning on your device.
Anyone please provide a better sbf file and ROM cm9 or 10 for my motoroal defy .. its completely bricked .. and i can't find a better one ... just provide one working sbf file to flash. i don't need a list of SBF file. if u can't provide here .. please send the links to my address >> [email protected]
I tired numerous SBF files to flash thru RSD lite. .. but it stuck at black screen or logo. and when i enter into boot menu thru Triangle logo (Holding vol- button & pressing back button on screen) I can't wipe data / factory reset .. as i selects.. it keeps on restarting. Please help me
Were you able to enter the stock recovery? You need to wipe data and cache from the stock recovery after you flash a sbf..
Edit:
When you get that triangle logo,
Press volume up -down buttons consecutively (up-down up-down up-down) .. you'll then get the stock recovery. Wipe data and cache and reboot. You should be able to boot into the stock ROM.
Then follow the steps from this thread to root, install 2nd init,flash CM 9. All the best!

Hi all,
i've tried to upgrade my Defy (MB525) to CM11 from Slimrom. First I updated the CWM recovery, then I tried flashing CM11 but the installation aborted. After restarting the Defy I wasn't able to reach the Custom Recovery again. So I tried flashing an original sbf (Retail German 2.2.2. and Retail US 2.2.2.) from this site: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/phone.php?device=27.
Everytime RSD asks me to restart the Phone manually and displays "PASS" after the manual reboot. But then it is stuck in bootloop. When I try to perform a Factory reset over "power button and vol -" there is only a little triangle on the display but no Motorola stock recovery.
So could anybody tell me what to do next? I assume that I could only reach the bootloader mode now..
Thanks for your help!
Stock recovery
Exclamation mark in triangle and droid symbol is stock recovery.
Press both vol+ and vol- to see the menu. Then wipe data/factory reset.
Good luck!
press the both volume button(increase and decrease) and then you will get stock recovery option
Perfekt! Thanks, guys!
