1. vol-up + power => anything?
2. vol-down + power => anything?
damm what are u guys doing with your phones ...there are 2 or 3 topics opened each day about HELP I BRICKED MY PHONE what to do ..blablabla
Cant u ask or look for an answer in those topics? why open the new one each time? or use faq?
and be more specific about what did u do ...what recovery, sbf have u tried to flash ...what version were u on before u flashed and so on
haha dont be too hard on him. granted he should have read and research more first. but now i think hes pretty upset already.
(hopefully) we all learn from our mistakes...
maybe he didn't even know where's the faq...

Ok my phone is DEAD! Yes I have have read alot of posts and used my mate "Google" but they are all saying or pointing to the threads saying flash with the .sdf files with RSD which I have done Infact i've tried most .sdf images. I work in ICT so I know to do research first before posting but I'm not getting anywhere. I just hope i'm being a numpty and missed something.
I have an unbranded UK one original version 2.21 and I had successfully flashed with the available roms on here and others by following the steps, but last night I flashed it with PAYS rom and it was fine but then it all went pear shaped when I tried to flash it back to the original 2.21 rom via RSD Lite but it's just a black screen and when plugged in I get a charge light. The Battery is fully charged.
I can not enter Bootloader and when I enter system recovery it does not respond when pressing the bottom right hand corner.
RSD does see the phone connected and it runs through the process of flashing it but then it goes to re-boot and nothing. RSD says it's finished, it does not go through the process of re-booting the phone.
In RSD on the phone properties this is all I get:-
IMEI/ESN/MEID: N / A
Technology: N / A
Software Version: N / A
Flex Version: N / A
Bootloader Version: v0x000910
DRM Version: N / A
AP Die ID: 1e600209036f60010000d8ff0100
BP Die ID: 0000000000000000000000000000
AP Public ID: a9e56c008df05759e72a50cf0e4ce907eea6c0de
Please, please somebody help me!
Simple way to start off is to start with original UK 2.51 sbf. Forget 2.2 now and start from beginning. I bricked mine trying Pays too.

Hi,
I have tried flashing the 2.51.sbf even tho it has the problems with downgrading. It does the same as the the other 5 or 6 i've tried.
Thanks for your suggestion tho.
I'm no expert, but is this where the touch all four corners going clockwise starting is upper left comes in?
Thought I read something about doing that when touching the single corner didn't work to get into recovery.
I could have misremembered (don't even know if it was in this forum), but it couldn't be that hard to try and it doesn't sound like you have much to lose.
maybe search four corners or something to figure out more.
Maybe time for factory repair

I think it may be time to call Motorola. Thanks for the tips guys.
Just tried the battery hack to charge it but nothing, even uninstalled everyting and downloading fresh .sbf files from work and still DEAD!
RIP Moto Defy, it was only one week old!
On a life experience tho, my first even bricked device......woooohoooooooo!
I've had quite a few phones that I have customized from here, top effot guys. There are many greats minds on here.
Think as i've just lost it, it could be time to retire and go (dare I say it!) mainstream, run of the mill Nokia.....GULP!
In the future it would be better to post these issues in the thread of the ROM you are having issues with. More people who may have had similar issues may be able to help you and it helps the dev know what issues you're having.

Did you send it away?. You sounded like a bright guy we could have solved this together though . Ultimate thing you could have done was to flash one of the leaked original UK froyo sbf. If you still have not sent it then do this. BTW what is the bootloader version when you put it on vol up+ power ?
Have the same problem
The phone is briked. Only RSD is working but wathever sbf I flash, at the end i get the same black screen. I can not do anything. Please could someone help us?
If someone send their phone to service, please share the result.
The only sbf file that start the phone is
JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002_BLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8RTGB035.0R_USAJRDNFRYORTGB_P003_A002_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
but is working hard, the market is not working, everything i want to download is say that is downloading and nothing hapends.
Could someone tell me how to go back to original software?
The recovery mode is not working, when the android face is showing, i tap all corners and all display area but nothing hapend.
For recovery mode, you should click both vol up and vol down simultaneously. They changed the recovery button function with the new bootloader.

I had the same problem, but with luck i had read this thread :

and i succeded to restore my "brick" into one working phone.
Try it.
Many thanks to : adlx.xda

Umm... I just bricked mine (HK version 2.51.0) as well.
I used ClockWorkMod Recovery for Defy to install 3.4.2 131-003 Orange Deblur. When the recovery finished, I found a tiny yellow line "E: can't open /cache/recovery/command" on the bottom of screen. Not sure if it was there before the recovery. When rebooted the phone showed the M logo for a minute, turned black for a second, and showed the M back again in loop.
Then I installed RSDlite 4.8 to flash the sbf directly. RSDlite finished and showed a "Pass". The phone was turned off automatically but couldn't be turned on again. The battery was fully charged before I started the update so it's not likely the battery charge problem.

I did post in the thread.
Heys guys thanks for all the comments, but last night it came alive.
I used 3 different computers and in the end the last pc I used was a WIN 7 x64 machine and it managed to complete the .sbf install which was a 34.4 version then i applied my previously nand backup to 34.4.4 US T-Mobile version which is Jboogie3 rom.
Keep up the good work guys and gals. This is an excellent community to be in.

Yeah, you made a little mistake, i dont know for sure that now, but try to re-flash to 1.2 some bada version not to 2.0.1, but first know how to turn off security, becouse it can be not to late, or you get Brick or Semi-brick Good luck dude
Are you sure you can't go to download mode ?????
If yes then i announce it : time of brick 23/7/2011
you will need JTAG or RIFF box to reanimate it
**** i cant go to download mode i guess im ****ed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15935274&postcount=102
Try other Key combo... maybe you have luck.
Best Regards
Hello, lest you accidentally tried to flash BADA 2.0 with an older version of "Multiloader" if so remove the battery of the phone put it again and start the "Download mod" with keys "Vol up" + "Lock key" + "Power on" If you start flashing again with "Multiloader 6.65"
thanks but it doesnt work any other tipps? oh and i user 5.65

If you cannot enter to download mode then you are in big trouble... You will need JTAG to reanimate it.
**** is there nothing else i could try?
If you turn it off and put the charger in nothing happends?
If so. JTAG is only way
If not you COULD have a semi-brick but i think you still need JTAG

Trying before asking? If you've read this thread then you would know that you should try to reflash
If your phone boots as soon as you put in battery then hold
vol down + camera when you put the battery in
thanks for the help its a full brick i put out the battery and tried to recharge nothing happend.

Sorry to hear that. But for anyone to be able to help u, u need to list what steps u did to return to HC. explain everything that happened in detail.
link.
i used this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1544486
ok sorry should have said that different. now explain what steps u did up until u bricked ur tablet. be as specific as possible. also there are a few good threads in this section that pertain to ur problem.
step i took.
i had the ics leak but i dident want it anymore so i wanted to go back to hc
first i download this link to external sdhttp://vache-android.com/v1/download.php?fileID=109 they said 2 download.
then i renamed it 2 update.zip
next i turned it back on holding the up volume button and power
after that they said turn off during reboot ask they said
next i hard reset
then they give you this link http://fileshost.fr.mu/download/84/S...l_user.7z.html which i downloaded.
then i deleted the other thing (from the first link) so i could name the new one update.zip
i turned it back on holding the up volume button and power
it said tablet configuring.
it restarted.
wen i loaded up it stayed on the andriod load and it just stays there.
so i tried putting ics back on from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1510706
that dident work. so now im stuck on andriod loading screen.
You need to do a hard reset after going from the ICS leak to HC. I believe someone already posted the thread link for how to do a hard reset. If not, do a quick search of the A100 forums, and you'll find it.
omg
i did that already.
Did u unlock ur boot loader prior to downgrading to the first update of hc? And the second zip is a 7z, when I downloaded it I had to rename to _______.7z Has to be file type 7z then I had to use 7zip on my PC to extract the update.zip inside that file. Then u can flash it from ur external sdcard
