Hi,
I have a Milestone 2. It was running CM10. I decided to put CM7. I was already rooted of course, so I just downloaded new gaaps and CM7 and reboot into the recover menu. There I installed both zip files and wiped data, cache and dalvik. Reboot the system and now I'm stuck on bootloop. Don't even see the cyanogen mod screen, only Motorola logo. Rewipe data doesn't work either.
So I thought I could flash a new rom, the retail rom but RSD Lite don't recognize the phone.
I cannot install any rom because when I press X and power up, what I get is the official boot loader, which doesn't accept any install from zip card that is not signed.
So what now? Throw this phone at the wall? Almost going to windows phone anyway. Please help, I have no money to buy another phone right now.

Why doesn't RSD get your phone? Is the cable fine? What about both your pc and the phone's usb ports? What about battery, and drivers? What version of rsd are you using?
X and volume up is stock recovery, not bootloader mode...

Hi. Thanks for the reply.
It does work. I didn't know I had to put on bootloader screen (Vol Down + Camera and Power button).
My problem now is that I want to go back to stock rom or at least CM7. My firmware is 4.5.2-51_ML2-27 with Android 2.3.6 from a creepy spanish rom (the only one that works on my phone).
With this firmware I cannot have CM7. My question is why I cannot have any other either.
At this page: http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_milestone2/list.php
I tried the Retail Brazilian that starts with M2L_U6_4.5.2_51-27. Isn't this one using the exact firmware I have? Why it doesn't work?
When I apply this one or even the original from my phone (Tim Brazil) all I get is a black screen, not even the M logo.
I'm afraid to downgrade as others said it will brick the phone.

Because you ARE downgrading.
I think this "creepy spanish rom" you describe is the one from Movistar Latinamerica (which is true, it sucks as a carrier) and it's BL=4, but retail brazilian is BL=3, that's the problem.
And yes, you can have CM7. Root with Cydia Impactor, bootstrap recovery, and flash CM7.

I flashed this leaked rom (JVR) from Samfirmwares.com with ODIN with repartition over MIUI 1.7.29 - problems started after I wanted to go back. I turned the download mode on and I found out that it is active but the windows do not recognize the device (tried other devices). Once i turbned the device off it yould not be started again.
Unless I put the battery with les percentage into the device and put it on charger with power button pressed (then quickly disconnect the cable once the baterry charging animation shows up), it wont start. The same goes wirth 3e recovery.
The phone was not rooted, and it does not have CWM installed. I am without hope, Google, the greatest of all, did not offer me any kind of solution.
Is there any way how to root 2.3.4 SGS JVR without ODIN or CWM? So i could install CWM and flash CM7 or whatever else instead? THX.
You can use CF-root to root, or flash JVQ deodexed.
I don't realy understand your problem ...
I think your only other option would be super one click, but it requires windows.

The problem is, that the phone starts only when it is on charger. And when I try to enter 3e recovery it enters Force Upload by Key Pressing mode, that I dont know. THe download mode screen is ok, but the phone connects only as UNKNOWN DEVICE. I have no solution for this yet.
There is no way I could flash with odin since I have no USB connection to the phone. Bootloader is corrupted and USB does not initialize correctly.
All stock gingerbread firmwares come with new bootloaders. CM7 only supports Froyo bootloaders.
Since MIUI is based on CM7, you probably need to flash a stock Froyo with bootloaders before flashing MIUI again.
I can't flash anything
I cant flash anything. Recovery does not work and the USB connector on the device is not initialized by the device because of the bootloader is corrupted. I need to root the device with some APK so that I could install CW recovery but z4root does not work for me.

Yes, I tried everything else, like another pc, other devices, other cables. The PC simply does not recognize the device. Ill have to wait until there is a new version of GingerBreak or any kind of APK based exploit. Then root the device from the inside and instal proper recovery, then flash the bootloader. Or else it will be a half-dead semi-zombie phone forever.

And Heimdall? I never used it, but you can try if it recognizes the phone!
Do you have the SGS drivers installed?
i have had the same problem! just try to flash JVK (cause it have safe bootloaders...was the only rom that saved me). Pull out the battery and restart the phone directly in download mode...JVK is for gingerbread. For CM7 based rom find out what rom from froyo you need to install first, with safe bootloaders!
I cannot flash anything. I only have 3e recovery option, but it flashes only signed ZIP files.
I got same problem, phone starts only when charger or usb cable plugged in. sent back to samsung they mentioned its a hardware problem and fixed it. I was on official rom.

you can get a rescue kit from My Android Collections and or a solution from My Android Solutions
Use only ROM and solution for your model and Wipe x3
But First powerdown, pull out Battery, SIM CARD, and EXT.SD card, press power button for a minute, than powerup without SIM and Ext.SD Card....
(Do remember to backup your contacts, data, images etc and also your EFS folder before flashing a ROM and make sure you have more than 50% battery charge before you attempt any sort of flashing.)
Hello,
I have a big problem. I misplaced my MS2 with a customrom Droid 2 installed. after which the phone is stuck at Moto logo, I wanted to flash it with RSD Lite again. But unfortunately it has made all the worse. The screen then remained always black. By accident I found out that the master is always handy in the bootloader if I make the battery clean. the RSD Lite detects it again and then when I want to flash an SBF file he does it without problems. only then if he should make a reboot it ends up back in the bootloader. but i can´t see the bootloader. I know not what to do yet.
can anyone help me?
thank you
greeting
I didn't get quite right the situation but tell me which sbf are you using?
Is it the same android version that was before?
Have you tried pulling off the battery, waited 10 seconds, hold vol + and vol - (or X and arrow up, depending on android version) and powering up to enter the recovery and do a full data wipe? Does it starts normally after that?
Yes, it is the same as before sbf. I've been on it before GB and GB have also flashed.
at the first flash of sbf I'm also in the recovery menu and have a full wipe made but which has unfortunately not have shown anything.
I thought that maybe Customrom a different bootloader has been on it so I downloaded the 70.13 bootloader and flashed.
Since then I have the problem that it only comes into the bootloader, and here again but I have only a black screen.
greeting
sir my advice is redownload your SBF.. maybe it got corrupted. and make sure you choose the right SBF.

I think I got the answer for you......
Use below mentioned steps and share the outcome:
1. Download the compressed SBF and extract using any software like 7zip or something - http://www.mediafire.com/?s3uc8cb782w1oue
[Note: Do not use any download manager while downloading.]
2. Use RSD Lite to flash the phone with the SBF file;
3. After flashing let the phone boot up and hopefully it will resolve the issue.
However if the phone is still in boot loops then try entering Stock recovery and wipe data/format and wipe cache also.
Please use the above steps and share the outcome.
ok i will download it and try it, but what i think is that, T Mobile is creating problem and i read some where there is only one SBF which work for T Mobile. Dont know for USA or UK. Mine cell is from UK.
Hopefully the link which you send helps me..
But the link you send for sbf is not down gradable. Can it create more problem for me if i install it and same black screen problem appears. And not rootable i think so how would i root it and move to custom rom,

I recommend DON'T flash that SBF! Why? : Its a chinese and has the potential to fry your LED! And since it is not downgradable and rootable you may get stuck!(See this. From what I have seen in few threads there is a big chance your battery is dead and not charged!!
okay, if battery is dead why RSD connect it and every time status passed message appears.
PLz tell me what to do

I understand your concern and I appreciate your comment however, I would like to point this out that this firmware is for "India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam" and its safe to flash I have flashed it multiple times and its Rootable and even my flash is healthy.
You may visit this link and Control+F "JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-33-1":

The chinese firmware which is suspicious of burning flash is "China - JDGC_U6_0.26.0" [Correct me if I'm wrong.]

You may use this firmware or any different firmware from this link : http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy
The ROM which I have given you link is Rootable however not down-gradable.
You may refer this extract from All-in-one-Guide-for-Defy
SBFs
SBF is how Motorola packs all the information to be Flashed on your phone. Inside this package are a lot of other files, each of these files named with CGXX where XX is a number.
So when you Flash a Full SBF, it takes the phone memory, format it, create the partitions and then copy the information inside these partitions. Each partition corresponds to a CGXX file. Here is where the eFuse thing kicks in.
There are a couple of CG files containing the version number of the Android you are flashing. So let’s say you are on Éclair Stock, first version, no updates no nothing. This version has a Version 1 number. When the phone gets updated, this version changes to Version 2 for example.
Each Android version has each own ID, once you go up, you CAN NOT go back, and this version is in CG31 AND CG39 files inside the SBF.
FIXED SBFs
Is a modified SBF without the CG31 and CG39 files, thus allowing to move between Android Versions freely.
Since the Fixed SBF creates all partitions but /System (CG39) and CDT (CG31), we need to copy System data using a Nandroid Backup or the phone will probably not work using the existing /System.
Nandroid Backup
This is just a .zip file flasheable with a Custom Recovery, this will Delete/Copy all the files in the /System and other partitions (depending on the Nandroid) without formatting or remaking the partition thus not modifying the system layout, eFuse or stuff; this is almost harmless, meaning you CANT brick your phone doing it, though you can make Android not boot and a new SBF or Nandroid would need to be installed.
CG Versions
With that explained let’s get to business with versions:
CG Version 2: SBF 2.21 / 2.34 / Chinese (Éclair) (Defy)
CG Version 3: SBF 2.51 (Éclair) (Defy)
CG Version 4: SBF 3.4.2 (Froyo) (Defy)
CG Version 5: SBF 4.5.0 / 4.5.1 (Gingerbread) (Defy)
CG Version 6: SBF 4.5.1 (Gingerbread, 2.3.6, (Red lens Defy/Defy+) )
CG Version 7: SBF 4.5.1 (Latests Gingerbreads, 2.3.6, (Red lens Defy/Defy+) )
ATTENTION: This CG 7 Version is NOT rooteable. You wont be able to flash a lower version ROM nor Root to use CWM.
If you try to flash a lower ID version than the one already on your phone, you will just get a Black screen after booting or a screen telling you to flash an official rom.
So, with this in mind, you can now hop between Android versions without screwing up your phone.
If you have an Éclair Defy and would like to keep the ability to downgrade to it, you should ONLY install FIXED SBFs of the Android Version you want to install, and then use the corresponding Nandroid Backup for that Fixed SBF.
Official SBFs
Here is a list of all the OFFICIAL SBFs, meaning they come with ALL CGs, these SBFs put your phone like Motorola sold it to you, just need to keep in mind that going UP in versions with FULL SBFS <WONT> I repeat, <WONT> allow you to go back to an older version.
Knowing this you should be able to test every single Android version out there and being able to go to Stock without issues. Just be sure to understand how CG versioning works and you should be fine.

---------- Post added at 09:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:12 PM ----------
One important thing for your information is the reason behind those black screens was that you must have flashed Froyo SBF before; which was not down-gradable and now at this point you were trying Éclair which resulted in this issue.
So, the Downgradibility of your previous flashed SBF was causing this issue.
Now, as you have flashed this Froyo SBF; so, now onward in case you need to flash you phone you need to use SBF which should be Froyo or newer and must have “3.4.3” or later Build Numbers.
Hope this helps someone who needs this information.
okay

markos807, did the SBF flashing process complete successfully and did u get the message "Please manually reboot phone" in RDSLite window?
Did u verify the MD5sum of the downloaded SBF against the MD5sum given in the download page to check if the downloaded SBF file is not corrupted?
Are u still able to go to the Bootloader by pressing VOL UP+POWER button when the phone is switched off?
Only if u provide the above information, I can suggest what can be done next.
1.I dont remember what was the message,but I think it wasnt "Please manually reboot phone",but it was done,some other message saying its done
2.How to do that?
3.I cannot go into bootloader and when I connect a phone via usb to the PC the RSD Lite recognizes it so I can flash some other verified sbf.
Thanks for trying

Might I suggest, pull your Defy battery, replace it, do not attempt to get into bootloader, Leave it off. Just plug it in with usb after booting up RSD lite and see if connects on it's own. Sounds like a bad flash. I've connected that way numerous times.

1. Even I dont remember the exact message But I remember that it asks us to reboot the phone manually.
2. If the SBF which u are using is corrupted while downloading, it may lead to bad flash. U can google and download and use any of the md5sum checking tools. I use winmd5 application(I'm using Windows in my laptop), which is easy to use and it has UI unlike some other md5sum tools which have to be run through command line.
3. If RSD Lite recognizes ur phone, then try flashing the SBF once again. But ensure that the SBF is not corrupted as mentioned in point 2. If ur SBF is corrupted, try downloading it again. There are chances for a file to get corrupted while downloading. That is the reason why md5sum is mentioned in the download page to verify the file after download.
Winmd5 app says "Matched!". That means it is good?
Yes, if the MD5sum matches it means that the SBF file is not corrupted. U try flashing the same SBF again and see if it works.
@ markos807: Were u able to flash SBF successfully? I would like to know if ur defy is working fine now
Gingerbread (BL7) back to Froyo?
Did you already flash a Defy+ ROM with Gingerbread?
From a BL7 ROM there is no way back to Froyo. BL7 doesn't support that.
When I wanted to go back to froyo, I was flashing this sbf: JDGC_U6_2.13.0 China Unicom Thread/Download !!!BL6 kernel !!!
And that broke my flashlight! And because of that I want to go back to other official froyo sbf to see will the flashlight work. Do you know any other fix for the flashlight? Anything please?
Also, I am flashing same sbf second time now, will post the results.
Edit: Cannot boot the phone with any .sbf downloaded from here. The only .sbf that I can flash and boot the phone is JDGC_U6_2.13.0 China Unicom and that one broke my flashlight.

Mate, as you flashed BL6 sbf then you are stuck with BL6 and no way back to froyo other than chinese one.
Your flashlight could be burnt out - in such a case only moto service can help
What do you mean you cannot boot with any sbf from walter79 thread? Have you tried all of them? (You shouldn't). Or only froyo ones?
If you tried only froyos, then you can flash gingerbread BL6 to check your flashlight
And have you tried wiping data and cache from stock recovery? Is it accessible with power + volume down?
No, I cannot acess stock recovery. I have tried only froyo ones. Can you give me the link for that BL6 GB, I`ll flash it tomorrow because I really want to fix my flashlight.

Try any from a range 4.5.1-134_DFP-125 up to DFP-161. Higher are usually BL7, lower are BL5, so no use to flash
Link to the sbfs
I have succesfully boot up a phone with this sbf: DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-125_GR_SIGN.. but my flashlight is still not working. The camera is not working at all.

Well, I suppose you've burnt your flash unfortunately with chinese froyo.
Your camera will not work with GB ROMS. It's normal. but it was you who flashed BL6 ROM on your green defy
You have to go to CM10 2ndboot builds to have your camera working again.
For flash I suppoose only moto service can help
AFTER DOWNGRADE, The DEAD CELL NO COMBINATION OF BUTTONS WORK, DO NOT ENTER YOUR MOBILE PHONE OR IN BOOTLOADER RECOVERY, AFTER RSD 100% PASS, NO CELL ON, ADB and fastboot NOT RECOGNIZE THE PHONE BUT WHEN FLASHING THIS RSD The ROM SHOW SW UPDATE APPEARS IN PROGRESS, THEN I THINK THAT THIS MOBILE NO BURNT
PLEASE HELP ME
If you still can flash with RSD, the phone is possibly not bricked. You wrote you were downgrading - from what firmware to what firmware? If you were downgrading from European GB to Froyo, try to flash the latest European GB. If you were downgrading from Latin America GB - try to flash latest Latin America GB. Because of troubles with a locked/signed bootloader, simple downgrades are not possible. To install previous versions you have to perform some tricks, described in this forum.
Hope it'll help.
Hi
I'm trying to downgrade from Engle_Mars CM 10.1 (4.2.2) to Stock ROM. Can someone guide me on how to do it? If I try direct SBF flash via RSDLite, I end up on black screen detectable in RSDLite as bootloader.
Bump!!
All that comes to my mind is try a different stock ROM sbf. You have a choice between European, or Latin-American GB ROMs. Try another ROM. In my case, flashing Froyo leads to this black bootloader screen.
Try to wipe data from stock recovery.

If I understood everything well, he's not able to enter recovery. After switching on, screen stays black with backlight on, and after connection to PC it is recognized as it was in flash mode, so RSD can flash it. At least that's how my phone behaves when I try to flash Froyo over GB without flashing "Chinese GB" kernel before. That's why I suppose his problem might be also a mismatch between ROM, and bootloader (which is locked, and cannot be downgraded).
Good luck!

No problem. I wonder if he was able to do anything with his phone.
