From CM 10 4.1.2 to stock - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My main phone atm is unavailable so I have to use my good old defy(MB525)again. the problem is that I haven't used it for like 2 years ( back then it was working ok ) and it's almost unuseable now. It has CM 10 with 4.1.2(AND it's recognized as MB526 atm!?)(that's how I bought it from a friend) on it and it's really really laggy. It freezes at the most basic commands and even writing a message is really hard.
In settings, the internal memory appears to be 0.00B and everytime the phone reboots I get through the "Welcome" stuff , like when you just turned the phone on for the first time.
So, I've been thinking to go back to the stock rom, considering I just want basic stuff from it ( calls, messages, browsing the internet ) but i couldn't really find any stock FBS's. there was a thread with them but the link is down atm .
In a thread, someone pointed to this site http://motofirmware.center/files/category/33-jordan-umts/ and he said here are defy sbf's , but I;m not sure sure which shoud i flash.. I'm using the phone from Romania, it was bought from Cosmote(which is currently named Telekom ) and I'm running a Vodafone sim atm.
Thanks a lot!

well your in luck , is not briked if it starts up , what you need to do is run a task 29 , then reflash your phone with a energy rom , that is what i use and is very good , good luck , let me know how it goes .
My phone stays on the htc screen and doesn't do anything else. I performed a Task 29 last night. And it did this to my htc hd 2 phone now it doesn't want to turn on I mean it does but it stays on the Stck Together screen. Should I call T-Mobile and get a new phone ? What should I do ?

after this if you did everything rite your phone should be ok .
i repeat if you phone dose turn on even if is an error ore it gets stuck , is still working and is not briked . so you can still fix it you self . if it dose not turn on no led no nothing then is briked , contact me if you have other questions

Please Help Need to find DEV firmware for X10 prototype

Hello,
Sorry for disturbing but I really need a firmware pack for a prototype X10.
I received it for testing, and it seems someone flashed a generic stock firmware on it.
The result - a beautiful x10 with no network access, it can not register to any network provider.
If anyone has such a firmware, please PM me.
Thank you all

Maybe you need to enter the network setting (aka APN)? If that is not the problem then go here.

no, that is not the case.
Thephone is a prototype, and it can not use the network at all with shiped rom - meaning no voice at all - it acts as if it was in "airplane mode".
Thank you for your opinion, anyway
Hello Agarthian,
what SI (CDF) does the prototype have (Label below the battery)?

Hi again,
I´ve flashed such a prototype (exactly the same type/data as yours) with a DE/CH generic software version (CDF/SI: 1235-7836). Only limitation of the prototype board is that Bluetooth is not implemented and speaker is weak.
Good luck - Nonixnarrez
Is there any way you could give me that specific firmware? I searched for it but i was unable to find it.
Would be most grateful if you could upload the file somewhere and PM me the download link.
Thanks in advance

Thank you, flashed this firmware but it seems that the problem was not caused by the firmware after all.
The phone still asks for "sim network unlock pin" - the phone is not network locked, being a prototype. The other X10's we received are just fine, this one just refuses to use any sim card.
Any other ideas? I'm running out of them.
Hello Agarthian,
I'm sitting here looking at the lovely X10i prototype that a major-manager at SE gave me some time back. It irritates me hugely not to be able to upgrade it to 2.1 and so I was wondering if this is what You have done/are attempting? If so, have You been successful?

Hi.
I have 2.1 on it, but this huge problem about not being able to use any SIM card in it. I really don't know if it originally came with 2.1, because someone else had it for testing before me, and I have no info about what happened to it so far.
Thanks

Well my phone, with a higher SI-number than Your's (if that has any relevance to age) was certainly delivered with the 1.6 it is still running. So probably someone has done a manual upgrade of some sort on the phone to get it to 2.1. Have You spoken with SE support? I had a X10 Mini Pro that they actually took pity on and upgraded for me. It probably helped that I live in Stockholm and had an SE lab here close-by... No such service-mindednes this time round, though....

Hi guys! I've got a big problem with my mobile....
I had a MIUI ROM..I installed a Stock ROM to update to ICS but when I installed de Stock ROM 2.3.6....the mobile said me that I didn't have SIM card...then I installed another Stock ROM and all was good.......more or less, because sometimes the mobile lost the coverage and again the problem that I didn't have SIM card....
I uninstall clockworkmod recovery.....I've closed the padlock.....unlock it...install 4 o 5 differents ROMS....and nothing.....sometimes I can to put de PIN but I don't coverage until I put Plane Mode and remove it....
I changed the Radio too...but nothing...
Any idea??? I believe that it is Software problem because as sometimes asks me the PIN.... like it is some misconfiguration.
Thank you for your help...!!

Your english is good enough not bad actually.
Hmm, have you tried taking out your sim and looking whether the pins that contact your sim are bent?
Good luck man!
Yes, I've tried too....Now I'm going to try with ODIN....
I would do a full wipe, format the /system partition, and install the ICS package. You are upgrading from MIUI to stock ICS, full wipe is must. Of course, back up the apps you don't want to lose data with Titanium Backup or My Backup.
Here's the link to various stock ROMs and upgrade. More guides in the stickies of this forum.

I think that is a software problem because sometimes I can to put the PIN....but I don't have coverage.....pfff...I don't know....on monday I'll call to Samsung
Ive had issues like that with a previous phone. Sometimes it would say emergency only or no sim. Then sometimes it just wouldnt get any bars. In the end, the problem was just that the sim card went bad. Maybe you can try a friends sim in your phone and see if it behaves? Good luck and Happy Holidays!

i don't mean to be a jerk but check here to make sure youre doing a full wipe properly
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1408308
also, check that you didnt download a cdma rom (although im pretty sure youd have much bigger problems if you flashed it)
check the md5 sums of the files you're flashing
did you wipe /efs?
if you wiped /efs you're kind of screwed. the only way to restore a lost /efs partition (directory) is to send your device in for service if I'm not mistaken.
I do the wipes good...but...what is a rom cdma??? I've got now a stock ROM..
What happen if I format de system folder....?? I don't know what more try..
Can anybody say me what I delete If I format:
/data?
/system?
/cache?
Can be my error fixed formating one of those?
up again!!!

OK!
I do not know if it will solve the problem, but you can try this :
- download Stock Rom v2.3.3 for your device and put it to sdcard.
-reboot phone into CWM - wipe all ( dalvik, data .....), and format/system, format/data, format/cache, format/boot and instal Stock rom v2.3.3
Now chek system update and install OTA update ( wifi - connection) , normally the last update ( OTA update 2.3......) should solve your problems ! Good luck !
When I go to System update it say me that my phone is updated..

[Q] Please help me get the stock rom

Hi Guys,
I unfortunately ****ed my Galaxy y pro, so i had to reflash it via odin but i flash it some strange rom. Now i would like to reflash it with the original one which is also more recent then this one, unfortunately kies is not allowing me to do so. So i need to apply some workarounds and for that i need the original details.
So guys can you please provide me with the PDA/PHONE/CSC for the Czech or at least some western european rom details?
You can acquire the details by entering *#1234# in phone, this will enter the service mode and show the
PDA
PHONE
CSC
Can you post this information?
After that can you please enter *#272*YOURIMEI#
this will write down the PC code can you please post this information also?
Hopefully i will be able to find the latest original rom via ?Check Fus with your details,
thank you very much!

Hi,
I guess there will be one generic for central Europe. I already acquired some details from one GT B5510 sold in CZ, I'm just waiting for the product code.
After that we will see what fus will offer me
but so far I'm using one netherlands rom and it runs fine - only few minor problem which i was also experiencing in the begining when i bought the phone - sd card disconnects and no network but both this issues occurred just once
So maybe at the end I will just stick with the Netherlands ROM, cos anyway it looks completly like the one which I had before with new gui for picking up the calls.

To fix the sd card problem try changing the kernel, I had my phone with that problem and I fixed it with this way. Just look the Doky's thread about kernels

Problem Updating (VNS-L21C02B346)

Hi, i have a problem and i need a little help!
My sister gave me this Huawei p9 lite VNS-L21C02B346.
From what i can understand the code means that this model is for Greece (c02 is for Vodafone Europe). I think that's ok because when it turns on i can see a Vodafone logo!!
So i am in B346 version, and with a little search i did i see some b393 versions for example but i see that this versions is for Europe (c432).
So i would like to know if i can install this version in my phone. I try to download these versions from 2 different sites and make a dload folder in my sd card with UPDATE.APP file in it and try to update and from dialer and from reboot with holding volume up and down key. But with these two methods when the update starts it fails in 5% and the only choice is to reboot the phone......
I am doing something wrong or is something else i am missing ....
Thanks a lot

Hello,
you've been much lucky you haven't bricked your device this way...
I suggest you to keep phone as is because rebrand needs some complicated procedures.
In any case i can tell you how to proceed, here you are...
1 - you need to unlock bootloader. ( can use DC-UNLOCKER to grab your code )
2 - flash a custom recovery for android 7. ( EliteTWRP 3.1.1-1 shoul do the work )
3 - Find and download L21C432oeminfo for dual sim + VNS-L21C432B504 FULL OTA MF ( three (3) files ) ( you can use Firmware Finder ).
4 - Use REBRAND following THIS GUIDE.
5 - Don't forget to thank developers who created those guides.
6- Enjoy.
Best regards
P.S.: Make all opportune backups because some of those procedures will factory reset your device. :fingers-crossed:
P.S.2: If something goes wrong do not point your finger at me, you do at your own risk...
Thanks for the answer first of all!
No in any way i am never going to point you for anything! I know the risks, my old phone i have been really hard with it by changing roms every week!!! Never broke!!
this is a new phone and i don't know it yet!
Well the most important reason i would like to update is for security reasons (newer version), i don't really have a problem with the phone as it is.... (if you exclude the sickness for changing roms and play with phone!!!) but i think Vodafone in Greece will never give an other update for that phone.
So to get it right, for any rom change (stock or custom) we have to unlock bootloader is that right?
Thanks again for your time

Hey greecian friend, yes it's right, and rebrand will help keep security updates.
You should have not problem doing the work, only pay attention when flash oeminfo file.
Feel free to ask.
See you
P.S.: You wrote you wanted to install B393... well it is for single sim model. ( if i'm not wrong you are dual sim B346;
firmware that ends with 'even' numbers = dual sim; ends with 'odd' numbers = single sim )
Well thanks again!
For start i think i have a problem for start! If i understand right from all i have read, huawei stop giving codes for unlock the bootloader, so first step problem i think! And i didn't understand if it is safe (works 100%) to get a code from HCU Software and pay!)
I saw you have aosp 8.1, everything working in this ROM?

Worst thing may happen is throw away 4 €, no one can assure you 100% will work.
I know you can use that money for better personal stuff, choise remains yours.
Till a couple of months this method worked, read THIS thread, member ba_baracuss done a rebrand
like you starting from C02 vodafone firmware to C432 EU unbranded one.
Read AOSP 8.1 thread too, atleast last 10 posts, you'll find a member that came from Greece just like you.
See you man
P.S.: Oreo rom have some little bugs, but with some twicks became usable for daily driver.
