help me! big problem with my green lens Defy

Fisrt, sorry my poor English ^^!
i had a mistake in flashing rom for my defy (green lens) not plus
I flashed Stock SBF of Defy+ to my phone by RSD lite (so stupid ~.~!)
And now
1. Although I do whatever, the camera is not working (MS2Ginger2.1, CM7 nightly, greenbreadmod ...)
2. Although I do whatever, i can't downgrade to 2.2 stock: tried do nandroid restore + fixed SBF or flashing any SBF 2.2 stock by RSD lite => resulting: black screen + white LED => can not go into Stock recovery and bootloader can not be seen, but RSD lite can detect my phone => i redo my stupid work: flash Stock SBF of Defy+, root and install 2ndinit is ok ~.~!
please help me! i need camera work, status ofmy phone: version 2.3.6, MB526, slightly lag, camera not working (camera.apk, 360camera, LGcamera ...) so boring and tired.
i'm noob in English so please explain simple, understandable ^^ thanks so much

that`s exactly what i faced since 10 days...the problem is the stubborn build 2.3.6 which never allows u to install any different build...!! i think it`s a trap ..motorola itself ignored many Emails from me to solve this problem..

Make sure you delete Data and Cache
Don't flash a nightly of Cyanogenmod. Instead, flash the stable release - http://www.multiupload.com/AIWXM5HJWY
then flash the stable kernel - http://defy.wdscript.fr/kernel/CM7_Kernel-signed.zip
I'm not sure I understand all of your post, which makes it difficult to help!

Also check out aurora ics forum in development section for instructions on how to flash.
Edit: always check first post on a thread.
Official gb always removes everything from your phone, it is like a factory reset.
You need cwm 5.0.2.7 or 5.5.0.4 for aurora.
Try searching the forum for help, it is full of useful info!

solved
thanks man!!!did it just like it says and im now running aurora ics 4.0.4!!look really nice !good post!thanks

I tooo faced the same problem at the beginning with cm11 (cm-11-20140117-NIGHTLY-mb526) by quarx, though I was able to install cm11(cm-11-20131229-NIGHTLY-mb526) by quarx successfully.... Im a noob to this flashing stuff still managed and understood a bit of this procedure... I believe I read this some where on this forum that if you want to install ***cm11 (cm-11-20140117-NIGHTLY-mb526)*** then you need to go back to the custom rom first then from there you can install , though I'm not 100% Sure and afraid to do any experimentation with my Defy+.... As of now Im on
"Android 4.3.1"
Kernel 2.6.32.9-Aerokernel

I am facing almost the same problems as yours "Installation failed" as if there is a problem with the zip file which I'm sure of that isnt the case :/
Please somebody help the noobs...!!!

Buddy Im already running cyanogenmod on my defy+ and in the second link what you gave for installing the 2ndinit Recovery it says:
DO NOT INSTALL THIS IF ARE YOU ALREADY RUNNING CYANOGENMOD. That ROM already has bootmenu pre-installed, and you'll probably end up having to flash an SBF file to recover your phone.
NOTE: You need ROOT installed on your Defy to use this application.
What should I do ???

I will try from start by using original sbf file using RSD and then CM11 and updating recovery after that Kitkat ,btw can you mention which ROM you tried because i tried these 2 earlier --> omni-4.4.2-20140117-mb526-HOMEMADE .zip and AOSPA 4.0+ PARANOIDANDROID [beta]

Mine sbf is rooted alredy so maybe try it first then go to CM10 .
its DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CEE_ROOTED_No_Signed.rar
downloaded it earlier from here only.

I have tried Mokee, but direct return to Quarx compilation made big stability problems too. Solution was to flash with original rom, then rooted one, 2ndInint and Quarx cm10, then cm11.
As I had Android 2.3.6 (3.4.5.1 - 231), I used these roms - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1542956.
It is very important to wipe data and cache just after first, original flash - otherwise you will have infinite boot loop and cannot run phone.
Look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537 too.

my problem is only wifi disconnects frequently -seems on this working fine ,will check it for few days ,anyway 4.4 will still have bugs so better be on some lower version.

Oooh in that case even if I can install the latest Cm11 by Quarx then I should not be doing it as the problem your saying about the wifi getting disconnecting frequently is not acceptable :silly:
anyways just fighting with my Defy+ as of now , Installing the Stock sbf on it as I bricked the phone
So the new Question arises what CM version is more stable or can I ask whose performance is Better in terms of speed.... As I don't mind with Features but I dont want Lags.... Previously I installed 4.2.1 I Suppose and installed the mininal gapps and was have around 240mb free of RAM...
is that good ???
Thank you for the responses buddies :fingers-crossed:

[GUIDE] [SOLVED] HOW TO FLASH CM11 ON BRAVO (Previously "Cm11 Issue, Status 0 Error")

[GUIDE] [SOLVED] HOW TO FLASH CM11 ON BRAVO (Previously "Cm11 Issue, Status 0 Error")
So, I tried to flash CM11 for the MB520 Bravo, found in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2515036
So I copy the ROM .zip to the SD card in my Bravo, and I reboot into CWM Recovery version 5.0.3.9, with the name "CyanogenDefy Recovery v5.0.3.9-jordan" on the top of the screen. This version of recovery came from josuearisty's one click tool for rooting and putting a recovery on the MB520 Bravo, which can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1559109
I factory reset/clear cache like I know I am supposed to when flashing a custom ROM, but when I select the "Install zip from sd card" option and select the CM11 MB520 Nightly to flash, it gives me this:
Finding update package...
Opening update package...
Installing update...
E:Error in /sdcard/cm-11-20140407-NIGHTLY-mb520.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
So then as I read on further in the CM11 install page, it says this: "For CM10,10.1,10.2 < 07.11.13 users: To install KitKat, need update recovery. Do not forget reboot, after install recovery. http://defy.bytekiste.de/cm11-nightl...e-recovery.zip". The thread is for the DEFY+ according to the title, but since I see there's also a Bravo download link, I assume that this means that I should install this updated recovery as well, since I am running the stock rooted 2.2.1, which is in fact "less than" 10.x or 4.x. I select the same "Install zip from sd card" option, and the same Status 0 is presented to me.
Then I go and try putting on CM10.x first, because then according to the thread's instructions I won't have to install this updated recovery if I am running that currently. I find a link for CM10.2 for the Bravo here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1779324
I download it, do the same install method, and I STILL GET A STATUS 0 saying it is unable to flash the zip!
Now I've done some research, and I THINK the status 0 means the zip is not compatible with my phone. I could see that with the updated-recovery.zip, but I don't see why that is showing up for the ROM's themselves because they are in fact made for the mb520.
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong, and if possible post a set of step-by-step instructions as to how I can go installing CM11 on my MB520 Bravo? Thanks.

*BUMP*
UPDATE: I seemed to get around the Status 0 issue in CM10.2 so far. First, I went from 2.2.1 to CM9 4.0.4. Then, I went from CM9 to CM10.1 in quarx2k's "archive" folder on his website. This updated my recovery to TWRP 2.6.0.0. From this new TWRP, I was able to flash the latest 10.2 nightly CM rom. I will keep this posted on how things go, in case anyone out there is actually following this

*BUMP AGAIN, PROBLEM SOLVED*
I got CM11 finally running on the Bravo. Here's the steps I took to get it on there. Some of these steps may be unnecessary, but I'm just going to list EXACTLY what I did in case all of these steps really are necessary:
1) I started out with stock 2.2.1. I rooted it, and used josuearisty's tool for one click root and recovery just to put recovery on it.
2) I flashed a build of CM9 from quarx2k's website. Here is a direct link to download it. Flashing this ROM also updated my cwm recovery. HOWEVER, this new version of recovery had scrolling issues with the volume rocker, so I just rebooted and pressed the vol. down button at the blue flashing LED light to boot into the boot menu. From there, I select to go to recovery, but instead of selecting "Custom Recovery" I select "Stable Recovery". This takes me back to the older recovery I got with the one click tool.
3) I flashed one of quarx2k's builds of CM10.1, which you can get for yourself here. Doing this updated my recovery again. It went from CWM 5 to TWRP 2 (I believe it was 2.6.0.0).
4) I flashed a CM10.2 build for the bravo from quarx2k, which I got from here. This updated my recovery YET AGAIN, to TWRP 2.6.3.0.
5) From here, I was able to flash the update-recvery.zip that is mentioned in the CM11 topic. I don't think this was necessary, because when I then booted into recovery again after flashing the update-recovery.zip, the version number for TWRP still read 2.6.3.0, the exact same as last time. But I just did it anyway to be safe. Here is a direct download link to the update-recovery ZIP mentioned on quarx's CM11 thread.
6) FINALLY, I flash the CM11 nightly zip from quarx2k's website. I get an error, but this time it's not a status 0 error, this tells me that the ZIP is not compatible with my device.
7) I give myself a facepalm, and take 3 deep breaths. "All hope is lost..." I think to myself.
7.5) A GOOGLE SEARCH TELLS ME THAT ALL HOPE IS NOT LOST!!! (that's supposed to signal you to keep reading)
8) Turns out, there is a way to disable the device compatibility check. So what I did was copy the CM11 zip to my pc, and unzip all of its contents. I go to META-INF\com\google\android\, and add a .txt ending to the "updater-script" file, which allows me to open it with Notepad++. It is possible to edit this with plain old Notepad in Windows, but it doesn't format the code very neatly like Notepad++ does. If you open the file in Notepad and Notepad++ and compare them you will see what I mean. Anyway, the line of code that reads...
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "mb520" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "mb520" || abort("This package is for \"mb520\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\"."); (ignore that winking face in the line of code, that is supposed to be a "; )" but without the space between them.)
... was the one I deleted from the updater-script file. This should be the first line of code. I save, exit Notepad++, and remove the .txt ending from the updater-script so that it returns to an unknown filetype. Now, I take the META-INF, system, and file_contexts files that came from the original CM11 ROM zip and I create a NEW ZIP with all of the NEW files and folders.
9) I reboot to TWRP with the ROM zip copied to my phone's SD card, and I flash the new, fixed ROM zip. "Installation completed."
10) My Bravo is rebooted, it boots up, and i get a "Welcome!" bubble in my brand-new homescreen in KitKat
11) I nearly cried. Seriously.
So looking back I think it was really the recovery that was the issue for the Status 0 problem, and the only real way to update the recovery and solve the Status 0 problem is by flashing all these ROMs in the order I mentioned, but that's as far as I know, there may be a better and quicker way to do this that I just don't know about.
So basically this thread turned into a how-to. I wanted to post the instructions here because on the CM11-for-the-Defy-and-Bravo topic did NOT have any instructions whatsoever for flashing the Bravo CM11 build on the Bravo. If anyone has questions about what I wrote, then you can certainly post them below and I'll respond to them as soon as I can, and I'll answer them to the best of my abilities.

Thanks for the Guide
I just wanted to thank you for this well-written, step-by-step guide. I haven't tried it since I'm a beginner and need some more reading to do. I'm glad you overcame those issues, though.
Anyway, I wanted to ask you how smooth it ran and if it was worth it. Also I'm starting with Android 2.1, would that make a difference?

I think you should upgrade to 2.2.1 to make sure the one-click tool works with it because I do not know if the one click root and recovery works with 2.1. Upgrade to 2.2.1 just to be safe.

Appreciate the work. What gapps are you using.

Doesn't have much support
I tried it. A lot slower then CM7.2 and very difficult to get my most important apps working (and I don't use many).
I would not recommend it for a daily (as mentioned on the Defy link). But, has potential if a developer takes up the task.

The gapps for this KitKat ROM can be found here. This came from the 4.4 thread:
QUARX2K'S KITKAT GAPPS
I used this as a daily driver for a little bit, until an update (I believe was from April 10th) with the Android 3.0 kernel broke the Camera. Whenever you would try to open the camera it would say "Can't connect to Camera". I'm not sure if this issue was fixed since then, and I know the versions before this had the 2.x kernel which was fine with the camera. I lent my Bravo to a family member because their phone broke, so I can't really do anything with the phone because it is not in my possession.
Anyway, check back at this thread and the link that it gives to the Bravo version of 4.4 to keep up with the latest version. This thread does not give a change log for the BRAVO version, but I assume that it's basically the same as the main version that the majority of the thread is talking about:
ANDROID KITKAT FOR DEFY AND DEFY PLUS (ALSO FOR THE MOTOROLA BRAVO)

Help please
The procedure to install cm11 after October 1 is the same? Or did it change? @jasonmerc
Quarx on their website does not mention cm10 and cm10.1

You are not using CM11 anymore? Do you know if the camera problem has been solved (I assume that with the 2.6.x kernel the original motorola camera drivers were used which most likely do not work with a 3.x kernel)? What was your general experience (especially regarding performance) with CM11 on the Bravo?
Thanks,
Markus

Its been forever since I've used my Bravo let alone CM11. From what I can remember the new CM11 was EXTREMELY FAST compared to other ROMs. The only issue was the camera.

can you create a backup of it because some of the downloads don't work i got cm 9 4.0.4 im 12 and i ran into
a problem on cm 10.1 i cannot download it or flash it thx

[ROM][5.0.2][TEST][LOLLIPOP][n7000]RESURRECTION REMIX LP 5.2.5

I Have opened this thread for test purposes only
THIS is a thread of Ressurection Remix 5.2.5 android 5.0.2
LINK to rom here
LINK TO gapps Here
Link to raw kernel here
FIRST YOU NEED the compaitble recovery and kernel ,the same one that cm12 uses
Refer THIS Thread
installing:
copy Rom+Google Apps to sdcard
boot into recovery
(factory reset) (if you get fc's or bootloops after updating from an older rom)
flash the rom and gapps zip file
reboot
now remember always take a nadroid backup of previous rom
some users report this error
Code:
error status 7
assert failed: package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img")
somebody knows how to fix this error please feel free to share here and test the ROM

status 7 error as I have always seen is related to incompatible recovery.
People got it while trying to flash kk ROMs coming from JB using a non SE Linux recovery.
Maybe try raw kernel?
remember not to boot system after flashing that kernel but reboot to recovery.

sorry for mentioning you guys here,
hopefully we can create varieties for Lollipop, :angel:
and probably with this development, we can also helping each other, sharing knowledge and such :highfive:
here's my workaround for attempting flashing this rom,
#method 1
1. reboot into recovery, flash forest v5 cm11 philz -based kernel/recovery
2. do wipes (everything),
3. flash the rom,
4. failed with status 7 error,
#method 2
1. reboot into recovery, flash bauner's cwm-based kernel/recovery v1.2.1
2. do wipes (everything),
3. flash the rom,
4. failed with status 7 error,
#method 3
1. reboot into recovery, flash raw kernel v7 for cm11 twrp-based kernel/recovery
2. do wipe (everything),
3. flashed the rom,
4. failed with status 7 error,
#method 4
1. redownload zips,
2. apply recovery method #1, #2, #3,
3. flashed the rom,
4. still failed with status 7
#method 5
1. redownload zips, replaced bauner's NightOwl boot.img into Ress.Remix 5.0
2. apply reovery method #1, and #2,
3. flashed the rom,
4. failed with status 7, as well
that's my report, tester : me and @nitangle17

please post a screenshot of the error
----------------
update : according to my findings this "status 7 assert" error is either because
1) you trying to flash a different model/variant ROM on device i.e S2 ROM on S3
2) incompatible recovery i.e non se Linux compatible.
there is a workaround for the issue 1 but we need to make sure that this ROM file IS for N7000 or it WILL BRICK the device.

Thw cauae of the status 7 error here is becauae of the SE linux disabled recovery
I dont think removing lines like assert is recommented but i will ask my testers to give it a try.
But the cm12 dev uses the exact same updater script as mine
And some users are able to flash it and some arent (getting this same error)

Status 7 error is caused while the ROM’s updater script file checks to see if the phone model of your phone is compatible with the ROM you are installing,
Back up your things
Flash DU 8.1 (Because it have Latest TWRP recovery)
Reboot into recovery
Clear cache, Factory rest
Flash the Rom + Gapps
