[Q] Defy bricked - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello all,
For the 2nd time in 3 years I have bricked my phone. I was using Cyanogen 7.2 in the past and today I have decided to try MIUI.
After a flash i was geting reboot before Android was loaded to I decided to install the base OS.
Installed RSDLite5.6 -- shashed one of the oficial Andro for version 2.2.1 I think (closed page and I don't have it in front now) and device is all dead.
I know in the past I have flashed a chinese ROM and was working again...rooted and all of that but I can't find a download link for a ROM to do this.
I am not shure how to proceed also.
Can you guys help me, it will be much apreciated.

I've got the same problem, tried to root with superoneclick, first time it didn't go through, 2nd time it went through. Phone turned off (instead of rebooting) and screen is black since then, doesn't come on....

Download dfp 231 sbf if it is a defy plus

No...is the defy....not defy+..sorry that I forgot to mention it

If you're planning to use jelly bean ROM, you can still flash it
Otherwise search for a bl6 sbf for defy. These threads are there in development forum

I can't flash a custom rom now because I don't have recovery. The only thing I can do with my phone is to enter download mode.
As far as I know I have to:
- flash a new room that I can use it to boot device and work on it.
- root device and install recovery
- install cooked rom
My problem is that I don't know what to flash so that I can boot my phone --- now it is in the dead phase

You have to flash an sbf, not a ROM(that's what you will flash once you get back recovery). Read the defy beginners guide to get the steps. Basically:
Get sbf (search and download)
Get rsdlite and Motorola USB drivers
Flash it (from boot loader mode)

Probably the one you tried was just corrupted hehe, good to see you got it sorted.
And yeah, the special Eclair SBF wont work since all these new Defy+ Roms come with CG6, and that one is CG5.

Hi, ace, I had a 2.3.6 Defy+ and got screwed too, by flashing a 2.3.4 custom ROM without being aware of the locked bootloader / no-downgrade lock.
Please, where did you find stock ROM / sbf file for 2.3.6 Defy+ ? I need it but can't find it
EDIT: nvm. I found it myself =)
Hi guys, apologies for flooding other threads as well

There is no info in your previous posts. What stock motorola sbf's have you flashed? Can you get into bootmenu.
How are you trying to flash MIUI? If you're stuck on bootscreen you have to flash stock rom again (and wipe in stock recovery) and next do all the needed steps to get a custom rom working.
Don't just flash any sbf please and tell us witch u already have tried as you will have to flash a rom with the same bl nr.

Boot into cwm and factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache also. Then re flash ROM of your choice. If it still won't boot I suggest trying another ROM or Odin back to stock and re root your device.

I had same problem as you and i solved it.
I m coming from miui and when i m trying to charge it i had a ?
it s due to wrong kernel version
I download china kernel from tezet (even if i m in france) and i install it (i start recovery mode with connected to power)
Hope you can resolve your problem
Sent from my A953 using xda app-developers app
You are right, the problem is caused by flashing different roms contain different kernel. I met similar problem before. Flash correct requested kernel before flashing the rom you want is necessary.
Suggestion for other users: Before flashing new rom, know what is your current kernel version, and do necessary adjusted work if needed.

The problem may be caused by flashing the CM10 directly, you need to flash a updated kernel (check what tezet said about the kernel update in his CM10) from froyo kernel to CH kernel before flashing CM10 (not the first two CM10 release, which asks for froyo kernel to run.)
I had similar problem when I flashed directly from froyo kernel to a CM10 that asks for GB kernel to run. So I flashed a updated kernel before flashing CM10, then it CM 10 working.
I assume the problem is caused by different kernel. We usually call it "M logo stuck" problem. Hope my suggestion works. And hope your work will work soon.
Best wishes,
Peter

[Q]Issue.. With SBF flashing and bootloader version.. Help...

I have defy+ (MB526)..
It was on stock 2.3.6 when i brought it. I was using CM10 by Quarx recently..
I Flashed bootmenu1.0.4+CWM5.0.3.1+modules.zip this morning and now phone is stuck on MOTO logo... if i go into bootmenu, i can't go in recovery.. What can i do? I have the backup of my previous working config.. but from where can i flash it????? I tried flashing via install update.zip in motorola recovery but got and error "Signature verification failed"..
I searched a lot... got many threads telling how to flash SBF and all but i don't know my bootloader version, and one of the thread said if i flash SBF of wrong bootloader version my phone will be bricked.. I don't know my build version..
As i can't get my phone to boot, i can't find my build version to know which bootloader version i have...
When i go into bootloader by pressing vol up + power button i get this message:
Bootloader
09.10
Battery OK
OK to Program
Connect USB
Data Cable
Searched but I can't figure out if i have bl6 or bl7.. and then which SBF to flash.. I don't want to downgrade below 2.3.6..

You're probably on BL6
Dude if you bought your DEFY+ about 5-6 months back, you're probably on 4.5.1-134-DFP-132 or 1321, which is BL6....
Try flashing 4.5.2-109_DHT-25 coz its kernel apparently has better battery life.
If that doesn't work, flash 4.5.1-134-DFP-132.
That'll definitely work.

When you flash an SBF file, what you actually flash is a STOCK MOTOROLA FIRMWARE.
So, no, it is not rooted. But why is that important? You can root both bl6 and bl7.
And what the the hell did you mean with "DHT-25 also can't run CM7??" All the DEFY+ firmwares contain Gingerbread kernel. You can use custom ROM's on absolutely and and every of them, it doesn't matter. Some people say that they get better battery life with one or another, put am not really sure about that, never checked.
So, first - stop panicking.
Second - read more in the future.
Third - don't start panicking again

Check the date of the post - December 2011. There were no DEFY+ (Gingerbread) builds back then, that was the problem.
After you flash it, it won't boot, you'll get a bootlop. To fix this just boot into stock recovery and do a data wipe, all fine after that!
Just for the record, all the DEFY+ sbf's are available here - http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordanplus/list.php

Shooting in the dark here...
Is by your boatloader compatible?
Does your recovery support the Google api version in the Rom?
Have you tried any other roms?
Have you tried flashing to a different recovery and then flashing your rom?

just had a another look at your pic....bit easier to see on my pc!!!
You're running cwm 1.3.4 this is an HC only recovery -
You're trying to flash a JB rom so you will definitely need the unlocked bootloader and one of the recovery's that come with it
Once you get that sorted you'll be all good!!!
Thanks, now I have another problem, I installed acer's driver and selected debug mode, but the manager appears acer "No Acer Connected" but I can open the tablet folders on the pc, what am I doing wrong?
sorry, now i have recovery Version CWM rev1.7.3 and bootloader Version 3.0.1 .. I Can install JB CM10?

No, no m8 u must flash v8 bootloader first and you must have yr cpuid for that. If u flash that rom without the v8 youll brick it
Two stickys in dev forum...one for v8 and one for cpuid.

Youll need the drivers from the android sdk too..theres a mini sdk zip in the cpuid guide, bottom of the first post. Instructions to set those up are in that post as well
Dowload the apxflash manager tool, its the easiest way to install the bootloader and retrieves your cpuid too...at the first screen choose 'bundle market' option and then bundle number 17.... Also choose option to dump and save your 'bct' when u get to that screen.
If u follow things carefully youll have no probs
Good luck

i installed "904 KiB A500_A501_ICS_V8_green_bootloader.a500apx" from this link http://skrilax.droid-developers.org/a500/nvflash/images/ is it? because my bootloader says 3.0.1

U must install the unlocked bootloader v8.a500.apx file with the apxflash tool so yes thats why you still have 3.0.1

M8 theres only one way to get the v8 installed at thats with nvflash or apxflash...trying to install it with an app or flashing it in cwm wont work!!
You must read the guides and if u dont get your cpuid and use it, then you will end up bricking yr tab....Please understand this.
The links are stickied in the dev forum like I said before...there's even a couple in my sig...
