Help with RCMixHD

When i try to flash this kernel RCMixHD-2.6.32.28_HAVS.925_CFS_VR_v39.
My phone don´t boot up.
I have installed this rom RCS Mix HD or simply The HD ROM v2.0 D2EXT .
Anyone know why it does not work?

And why don't you just ask in the proper Thread? Another useless Thread popping Up...
Possible problems: SD not partitioned, kernel doesn't work with the Rom, try first boot and then flash the kernel etc. These are all possible solutions (just as your problem itself), that have already been posted hundreds of times in every ROM-Thread...

More like why flash a 925mV kernel if you don't know this, when the appropriate thread is full of users with instability/bootloops due to the low voltage.

Flashing RCMixHD v1.6
Guys, I just had a very simple query about the RCMixHD ROM. I am on v1.5 and wanting to update to v1.6... Does it require a full wipe or can I flash it over the existing ROM?

Usually you can flash over existing version. But make backup before, just in case.

[Q] Noob Question about flashing Indian 2.59 defy

I have 2.59 Indian defy , I have following questions about flashing
1. Can I revert back to stock 2.59 fw after flashingg to 2.2/2.3 ? So if official update will available there will not be any problem.
2. If yes please post link of downgradable method.
3. Whats the differance
Nandroid backup & sbf & fixed sbf?
4. Are nandrroid backup /sbf/ fixed sbf different for every defy?
Thank you.....

Sorry,i am also a noob for defy. And can you tell me where to edit my personal XDA profile
sent from DEFY noob

1. yes you can.
2. You need to go into recovery, install the nandroid backup of 2.59 and flash the 2.59 sbf.
3. Not sure, though they are same for 2.51 & 2.59
Why would you want to go back to Company firmware anyways... I have Barebones 1.5 which is way better than the company firmware, is much faster (my quadrant score is 1600+), has none of the moto bloatware, everything is very stable...?
And by the looks of it, by the time Moto releases 2.2 in India, 2.3.3 will already be available here (courtesy Quarx's excellent work..!)

Thanks mate....just installed cwm & 2nd init recovery...now confused between barebones or cyanogen 2.3..

yeah you can do it

I'd say go with the Barebones 1.5.1, it is a very stable ROM, CM7 still has some niggling issues...
I've been on Barebones 1.4 onwards and I am totally loving it... OC'ed my phone to 300/700/1100 and it is rock solid stable....

Works great on my defy, few niggles but it can carried away..Its fast, stable for me and battery life is better than any other ROM for me..

[Q] Moving From different froyos

Now that my defy has an official froyo
I want to know if it is possible to move to different froyos by flashing full sbf
and if it is possible to go back to the official froyo with out the nandroid+FIXED sbf method.
Thanxx in advance

Hi.
I have the same question in principle.
Recently i flashed my defy through MSU to Blur_Version.34.177.3.MB525.Retail.en.xx (DACH). But I found out that there is no russian swype. I want to root one and install swype ver. 3.
Question. If i don't like this build i could flash another official SBF (Moto_Version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.CEE) where russian swype is?
Can i flash SBF over?
Can i change build in the same version Froyo 2.2.2?

Can anyone help us?? Please

Yes..you can flash any sbf you like.
well make sure that you have the official sbf with you.(save it on your computer for future use). You can install the official froyo sbf whenever you want.
I would suggest you to try the latest CM7.It is awesome

Thanks it worked now i have miui working flawlessly except for some language issues!!!

Good news to hear coz I'm also on Froyo.....
but I read too many and become more blur... My Defy is official SEA15 2.2.2 / 34.30.3301 (Build JEM_3.4.3-33-1). Can somebody tell me the different between flashing full sbf compare to nandroid+fixed sbf? From my understanding, flashing full sbf is upgrading (2.1-->2.2). Nandroid+fixed sbf is for returning to official ROM after moving to different ROMs (CM7-->Froyo 2.2). Pls correct me if I'm wrong...
During MSU update via pc, there will be a sbf file at C:\Program Files\Motorola\Software Update\. Is that full sbf file?
What is the different between my own nandroid backup compare to nandroid upload by others? Can I return to my offical ROM with myownNandroid+fixed sbf?
To make nandroid, I need to root Defy. For warranty purpose, will flashing Nandroid+fixed sbf act as Defy unroot?
I'm planning to get CM7, but there are too many versions. Which one is best and stable? (info : my Defy is green lens...)
Thanks in advance

[Q] Defy with froyo 2.2a please help

Hi frendz.
Today i got my defy which has froyo 2.2..
I am already loving it..
Unfortunately it has green lens.
My battery lasts for only 1 day on this stock rom..
For example say battery is fully charged and i start watching movies say 2 hr movie
i can continuously watch on 2 movies..brightness is set to 60%.
so i wanted install custom rom which has better battery backup.I went through the forums OMG!!! so many custom roms??..Which is better with least bugs please tell me..I have few questions please answer ..
1)How to install custom rom from scratch.
2)I want downgrade option to stock rom which i have now for warranty reasons.
3)Links for cm7 rom which is best with least bugs and best battery backup..Coz i see cynogenmod defy device database has no links in it.
4)Can i upgrade to gingerbread custom rom without flashing gingerbread official rom and can i again comeback to stock rom if something goes bad for warranty claiming??
5)Is miui rom best than cm7..And if so then which version..
Please help frendz...
Thanks for everyone..

1. You need to root your phone first before you can install a custom rom. Look for Superoneclick. Once you have done this you need to either install derfy2ndInit from the market or downloaqd RSDLite 4.9 to your computer.
2. To downgrade to stock rom you will need to use RSDLite with SBF JRDNEM_U3_3.42_117-002. This will return you defy back to 2.1 then use the motorola upgrader to 2.2. Your defy will be unrooted and back to stock.
3. Never tried CM7.
4. There is no Gingerbread stock rom. You can upgrade and come back again as in answer two.
5. I have always used MIUI and the latest version is 1.9.2. There is a built in updater and the rom is updated every Friday 11.00 BST. The choice of roms is always down to the individual depending on what you want from it, as I have only used MIUI I am not in a position to make judgement.
I hope this gives you pointer in the right direction but please have a good look through the forums as most if not all your questions will be answered.
