try to replace /bin/batt.d
It doesn't work.... i don't know what to do... maybe downgrade to eclair can solve it?
Battery isn't recognized yet... T.T
Please... help, i can't use my defy since 3 weeks :S
wipe data.....have try....
Anyway you can try an OEM Moto battery? Even on stock ROMs I have read of after market batteries not being recognized.
.. Wipe data doesn't work, i've not a Motorola official battery and there isn't a Motorola store :,( i think i must buy it from ebay... and wait until an official battery arrives
No one has a solution? Maybe for fake the battery signature, and make the phone think the battery is original?
I have no problems with third party batterys from ebay. You should be able to solve that problem by changing the rom. I am using CM7 nightly.
The problem is in the sbf i flashed, i think i must downgrade to eclair original rom, then root and install MIUI or CM... but this will take a lot of time :S
@shorty66 wich rom do you use? I mean: wich ORIGINAL ROM have you rooted for install CM7? An european one? 2.1 or 2.2?
U cant downgrade unless n untill u used nandroid backup+fixed sbf...
Try flashing a froyo u can switch back to tmo2.2...
Sent from my MB525 using XDA Premium App
MMM... can you guide me? Which sbf must i flash? I've heard of some peoples using non official batteries in a normal way, without errors, i think they're on an another rom, i think one of the first roms...
Now i'm using an european 2.2.2 ... if i want to downgrade to the first european 2.1 what i must do? :S
I've done it, but no way to use this battery... i think its the battery itself
I hoped I never had to write a post like this.
I installed MS2Ginger via CWM 3.1 (the one on the bootmenu provided on this forum) and then tried to reboot without flashing fixedsbf ( i was coming from Blurless Gingerbread ) .
I had...
Red Moto Logo ---> Black Screen for a minute or so.
I pulled the battery off and then put it back again after a couple of seconds, and now my phone won't turn on and won't recharge. When plugged in power socket the charging light doesn't turn on, while when plugged on PC USB port it turns on. But if I unplug it from the computer and then plug it again, the charging light doesn't turn on until I pull out the battery and then put it in again.
Did anyone experience such a thing?
And your phones battery was fully charged before you tried to install custom ROM?

Hi there & thx for replying! I'm a long time lurker and I've read various posts around the forum, but how do I flash an SBF without the phone entering bootloader mode/being recognized by RSDlite?

The only way to flash an SBF is getting to bootloader mode, so it can be recognized by RSD Lite (or sbf_flash on mac/linux).

hi can anyone help,
i bought a defy sometime ago and the person who sold it flashed the 2.3.4 stock rom from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1127085
so of corse the defy is green lense so there for camera doesnt work.
is there anyway that i can 1: get camera to work and/or 2: downgrade
ive searched and only found some chinese rom but it has dead links and im a little rusty with nandroid backups etc
can someone guied me
p.s im on cm7.1 if that make any diffrance
thanks folks.
I think 2.3.4 can be downgradable to froyo, am i not right?
I have a green lens defy with stock 2.2 froyo, and for cm7, cm9 and miui, the camera works, so I guess that who sold it to you have it upgraded, don't know why, :S
try flashing froyo, then flash cm7 over it
I'm not sure if will work, but why don't give it a shot
tell me if it worked
Good Luck
No he done full gb 2.3.4 and it says its not downgradeable. I've tryed to flash other sbf's but none work.
Thanks for reply mate.

it was true back then that it wasn't downgradable. but lucky you the situation has changed. you can now downgrade your phone and install custom roms. there are 2 methods available since your rom is only on cg or bl 5:
1) read the first post of this thread completely as all newbies should:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216982
and in there under common problems/questions you'll find your first solution. this method would preserve your phone to bl5 but it's a bit longer than method 2.
2) method 2 will upgrade your phone to bl6 but it's much easier. so if you don't have any problem with that, use this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486731&highlight=bl6
That's great thanks.
Just what I was looking for
Is this the same method

Try flashing the full SBF from here - I know the link works because I downloaded it myself a couple of hours ago. It's also rootable using the Droid 3 easy rooting tool linked in that thread. It says in the thread that the green lens camera can be got to work using Greenbreadmod.
If that SBF + Greenbreadmod gets your phone working again then I'd try MS2Ginger or CM7 on it (if CM7 will support the green lens camera, not sure). Take a nandroid backup first - install 2ndInitDefy to get CWM on the phone. MS2Ginger is based on Gingerbread but with some nice enhancements eg 1% battery step, power menu, 720p playback, panorama mode etc. I had the 2.1 version of MS2Ginger on my green-lensed Defy for many months and it was rock solid. I've not tried CM7 but lots of people like it.
ok im downloading it now
so just flash this with rsdlite is that correct.
i have downloaded greenbread 1.1 what do i do with that? do i unzip it on pc or move whole file to clockworkmod backup?

From the Greenbreadmod thread:
Installation:
Install official GingerBread via nandroid + fixed sbf
Install 2nd-init recovery 0.6.1 or later
Install zip from recovery
RTFM

What version of RSD Lite are you using?
5.2 I think

I used 5.6 to flash that sbf on my phone. Google around, you'll find it online.
Ok I will have a look in a while

not even 5.6 works. it gets so far says fail reboots my phone? f**kin mad. ive flashed my old defy like 20 times before and allways worked.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1140839, by walter79, ur cam will work i and i used this rom its 100% work on my red lense defy plus
1) Is your phone actually working at the moment ie can you power it up and get to the home screen?
2) When flashing, do you power it up in to the bootloader? This involves holding vol+ as you press and release the power button.
I'm just wondering whether you might have too little battery to flash. The phone doesn't charge the battery in bootloader mode so repeated flashing can flatten the battery. I believe that bootloader mode will display something like "Battery low - cannot program" if that is the case. Possible fixes are: (1) The McGyver hack, (2) charge the battery in a cheap external charger eg like this one.

Go to Google, and type 'zte blade firmware'....Click on the first link (modaco), and follow those instructions...
In short:
You will need to flash the firmware, and install a custom rom...
I had been in this situation, so I know...No worries..
there is a guide on modaco to fix your phone from FTM Mode i had a similar problem and that guide was great at fixing my phone mate give it a try
As you guys said , i went through this .. http://android.modaco.com/topic/339048-guide-flashing-firmware-to-bladelibra-via-windows/
But cant understand step 8 and 9. First they say cwm 5.0.0.2 is the version for gen 2 and then flash 4.0.05 again?
Yes, when i flashed my phone for the first time i flashed 4... and then had to re flash back to 3.0.2 because that is the version that works best for my phone.
Okay so i got it to work. Its 5.0.0.2 for my phone, since i got a Gen 2 phone. But i want Dell stock firmware Android 2.2 Where can i get it?

Hi Guys!
I'm come to Defy from LG GT540, so I don't know much about this phone.
So I just got the phone fom second hand (the person tried to root is, but failed...) and it just don't want to work.
I can't turn it on, just when I plug it into my PC a white LED lights up and that's all. I can't get into CWM or anything BUT I CAN USE RSD LITE!!!!! It recognises the phone and I can flash files to it. I tried couple of times, but NOTHING CHANGED.
I don't know anything about the phone's past (what type of CG of OS was on is)
I would really apprechiate your help Guys!

Why you flashed BL7 SBF? First you needed to test on BL6 or BL5 - if it booted you should have working camera with froyo kernel..... Now your camera will NEVER work with stock roms & cm7..... Last hope is CM10.1/10/9 or MIUI 4 ics with 2ndboot....... Only on 2ndboot roms....

First flash this http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umt..._USAJRDNGIBRRTCEE_P022_A022_Service1FF.sbf.gz
After flashing wipedata and cache from stock recovery or else you will stuck on boot animation and wait for some some time it will boot.
Then this flash this to gain root access http://www.mediafire.com/?76z12j1at3etf4j
then install 2nd init and CWM and install cm10 or what ever.
