[Q] Defy bircked,can't blank flash. - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed my defy about 3 months ago,it worked well until last week.
I tried blank flashing,but the RSD can't recorgnize the phone.
When I connect it to PC through USB port,I got 2 prompts:
1.a new device is plugged in
2.device has been unplugged
What can I do?

Switch off the phone. Then press volume up and then power button. Then connect to PC.

I had tried this many times,nothing happened.

The screen should be black and stuff written like battery OK, USB connected, etc. Anyway if you did try that then update drivers, rsdlite and open rsd with administrator privileges.

1.I've charged the battery with travel charger
2.I've bought a new battery
3.I've tried 3 USB cables
When I connect DEFY+ to the PC,the white led flashes once and then goes off.

exactly, and after that if phone doesn't vibrate/do nothing, then there is something with power.
also, after that , and if it fails, remove usb cable, plug battery back in and try to charge it again.
and if, it still doesn't do nothing, try another usb cable and battery.
(as normally, when you plug in usb , it shoult vibrate and start up , and/or if not, then wait some time and try to power it on.)
but if you have done all that and there is nothing, then there is someting with your phone (usb socket ?!? )
Hi, first sorry, my english is horrible

Phone won't charge or turn on

After flashing Quarx's JB 25.10 rom, my phone ran i to trouble. Now, it won't boot. I when I plug in the phone into an outlet, the charging light won't come on but oddly, the phone turns on and goes to the Motorola logo at boot. Then it stays there. I've since lost the original cable that came with the defy if that matters. When I plug the phone into the USB of my computer to charge, the charging LED comes on. But after some time, the phone turns on and goes to the Motorola logo and stays there with the charging LED off. Some time latter, the phone will turn back off and the charging LED will come back on. And then the cycle repeats with the phone turning on to the Motorola logo.
When I hold the up volume and power button, I get a message saying battery is too low to program so I can't even get to flashing a new SBF from RSDLite. Help?

Had this problem with first 2ndboot builds, but it should be resolved in later updates... For me charge mode works fine on 10.18 +10.25update.
Anyway you can try starting the phone without the battery, with moto charger:
1: pull out battery
2: connect charger to mains
3: connect charger USB cable to phone
4: phone should power up automatically, and boot to CM10
5: once the phone booted to CM10, you can put the battery back, and charge it
This method worked for me, hope it will work for you too!

It's stuck at the Motorola logo. After I had the problem, I reinstalled CM10 but the phone abrubtly shut off mid install. That may of caused some problems.

You mean a computer USB to phone USB cable charging? That doesn't help. The moment I plug the phone in, the white LED ligth blinks once quickly but the phone won't even turn on to the Motorola Logo.
No, he means a separate batt charger, where you can put the battery in.

Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.
So why would flashing a custom ROM cause problems with charging?

[Q] I think I'm f*cked

I know that you might heard of what I'm going to say tons of times but I searched the whole internet and still got no solution
I tried to update my motorola defy+ and then something went wrong, now, I'm stuck in a situation that I can't enter the
bootload or the recovery mode. all I see is a black screen(like the phone is off) and a white led above the screen(only when it's with the USB)
in added, no software on the PC do not recognize the phone when it's connected.
there's any way to solve this?

Switch off the phone, then press vol up and then the power button. See if the bootloader comes. I'm sure you ain't doing it correctly:laugh:

I have the identical problem. I left the phone plugged into USB on the computer for 15 hours. No change. A wall charger does not turn the charging light (white light) on.
I have tried 3 or 4 different chargers and nothing helps.
If your system partition is corrupted it well never charge.
You must charge your battery with the MacGyver method or with another defy. Then you will be able to flash a sbf with RSD lite.

I'm facing the same issue after trying to install Quarx CM10 2nd Boot Build 09.07.2013. The Phone ran fine for some time and then died down. On Charging- battery would show ? when it was off so Tried the data wipe and reinstalling the ROM to the same consequence. Then wiped the system and after that disconnected the charger from AC outlet- after that- on ac charge- stuck at M Logo, and USB charging gives white LED. Able to enter bootloader with both VOL keys and power keys pressed- get message -
"motorola defy bootloader 09.10 battery low cannot program"
I'm not sure would be able to use MacGyver method, howver I can get an inexpensive universal charger to charge the battery- will it work?
Battery charger should work, and your problem should be fixed by a sbf flash

There's no harm in trying to charge the phone though, even though it might (will most likely) not work.

OP had asked whether an universal battery charger could fix the problem. Low battery error would've been obviously fixed by charging the battery via an universal charger, which I recommended, or by MacGyver method, which he had said he may not be able to do. That's why I recommended it. Since he tried to charge it the regular way by simply connecting it to a wall outlet, it didn't work.

I can confirm that instead of the McGyver method, using a new battery restores the device to being able to be reflashed. Yes, you are starting all over, but instead of a brick, your Defy is back in service.
Thanks to everyone who made the suggestions. I'm sure the McGyver method works for some, but a new battery and a $5.00 charger from eBay restored my phone.

Bricked my n4 after flashing ubuntu touch!!

hey guys....
i hate myself....
anybody know how to know how to recover my n4???? heres what happend....
i recoverd my stuff like always
put the two downloads from this page on my SD (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2324683)
did a pull wipe and dalvik
formatted system
then i wanted to flash the files
and without purpose flashed the second one first!
NOW
my phone wont boot... no recovery.... no bootloader and not fastboot!!
its suck at the google logo!!!
but whats wierd ist that at that google logo the PC sees it and also does toolkits!!! but no ADB
please if anyone has any idea how to get this running again please help me out!
Hold Power until it turns off then release the power button and press "volume - " and power at the same time and keep holding both.
What happens then?
Try to download this toolkit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2015469
And choose flash stock.
I don't know if it works but you can try.
Also, alot of people get stuck and can still can get into bootloader try every possible way to get there because if you can access bootloader you can fix it with ease.
Did adb work before? If not it might be your drivers so fix that if it worked before you don't can access your phone with adb while on the google screen.
Good luck!

Your battery died.
You need to put it in the charger for some time, the red light will go away eventually. Or try ro charge it with your computer or car.
BUT before doing that I THINK you must let it completly drain, so just let it the way it is and try the above tommorrow.
I'm not sure though so another member here needs to confirm this!

battery died indeed (probably fully discharged)
Try this:
1. just leave it charging for +- 30 min and check if it 'running' again (battery icon on screen).
and/or
2. hold the power button and then plug it in to a power source. Be patient because it may take up to 30 seconds for it to boot.
If it's working again and battery is full but system is not booting, try booting with volume- + power buttons and flash everything again (e.g. android 4.3) with fastboot.
thanks but No Chance!! the batter is full!!! if i tun it on with vol + or vol - or vol + and - ! all i get is a blinking red LED

I got a red light, not flashing ubuntu, it was running antutu with less than 30% bat, and OC. its all about battery.
What i did....
Plug my N4 to the wall charger all night long. After that i plug off and there was the same red led. I went to my job, on my way, i plugged into the car charger and....woalaaa , suddenly the red light turn off, pressed the power button and it start normally.
Do the same,but when you try to power on, do it pressing VOL- and power button to start on bootloader cuz you dont have an android system mount on it. Then Flash factory image vía fastboot.
I got that red light thing twice already OCin. And that work for my in both cases
Good luck

Red blinking LED is a battery voltage problem, best way people have found to solve is to use a 3rd party charger for a day or so then try again even if you think it's full.

How do you know battery is at 60%?
If you get a green LED when plugged into a wall charger, then it should be charging. Don't try to recover this until the battery is charged. Leave it plugged into a WALL charger overnight. First, though, plug it into your computer and tell us what it says on the computer after you plug it in.
