you will probably not be able to update OTA... but someone will find a way to port the update for the old defy running on defy + rom......cheers

Have you flashed a full SBF or a fixed SBF?

I dont think hes talking of a port instead the leaked stock 2.3.3 for MB526
Look at the post, he clearly says he updated it in the past... Mb 526 is not even mentioned once in his question.
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
the leaked roms have been around for one or two months now, so doesnt that count as 'past'? and cm7/miui are both 2.3.4/2.3.5, not 2.3.3... oh, and why are you so sure hes a he and not a she?

He hasn't mentioned of a port either, Anyways apart from our personal conflicts the user still needs to specify whether he has flashed a full or a fixed sbf.

he can get back to froyo with a nandroid,even if he flashed a full sbf, right?
sent from my cm7 defy...
Thats right but that is eligible only once the device is rooted. Has he flashed a full SBF , I dont think there is yet a method to root the 2.3.3 stock rom or so I read the last time I bumped into the Development forum.

The answer to this is on my Beginner's Guide, last part on Common Problems
Installed full Gingerbread SBF and can’t go back to another rom
It's possible to fix the mess

There are a few 2.3.6 rom(SBF) files that can not be rooted at the moment, and I'm afraid yours is one of them..
Thank You

I'm afraid u cannot downgrade. See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=966537
Well, you can use the sbf in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1486731
Is a Sbf with bl6 and froyo kernel, so you can root and flash any froyo and gb rom,
DON'T USE THE SBF, just use it like a bridge to flash Defy/Defy+ roms

Unfortunately, it was proved to be uselsess on BL7.
Yeah, but there are 2.3.6 BL6 too, so which 2.3.6 you flashed??

Question about SBFs

I've had the defy for more than a year, but stopped using it a long time ago. I found it in my drawer and decided to get flashing. So, my question is, if I use a gingerbread(2.3.4 not 2.3.6) SBF, and I flash a rom, say jellybean on that, what would be the difference as compared to a froyo sbf? Will the rom flashed on top of the gingerbread sbf work better?

Yes, I do know that. That's why I said I'm going to use the 2.3.4 sbf not 2.3.6. My question basically was, will there be any noticeable difference GB SBF vs Froyo SBF, since I'm going to flash a custom rom on it? Also, red lens.

Nope, I'm using a froyo sbf but I'm running Epsylon3's latest jellybean build. Also, there's nothing related to sbfs in your sig.

I dont think you will notice any mammoth difference! Once you put on a GB kernel its better if you use Quarx Defy+ builds with Defy battery fix...
Ya one main diff is one extra vsel.. GB kernel got 4vsels
BTW nice to see you from motoroladefy.com .. Got lot of help from you there when I was new to all these!

I wanted to ask if there's any performance difference Froyo vs Gingerbread SBFS if you're using the same rom, say Quarx's jb, on them.
EDIT: Thanks for the answer, pranks89. Guess it definitely is worth a try then. Also, I acquired a HD2 so I kind of stopped using my Defy. I was going through the dev threads and an awesome jb rom was enough to convince me to give it a second chance. Good to see you here too!

whay dont you say that?
this is my opinion http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29317445&postcount=19
but is about kernels froyo vs GB
There will be no difference if u flash jellybean over froyo or gingerbread sbfs
Its the same
The performance changes with kernels
So if u have a bayer lens defy (not +) MB525, i recommend u to flash an froyo sbf, Flash gb kernel, use defy + jb builds by quarx with defy battery fix

Your's is froyo 2.2.1 which is already the last OFFICIAL software available for wildfire.
If you want to try any other like ICS 4.0.4 or GB roms that the best option is rooting.
Already the performance of mobile is increase by 200%

You can update it by the official way if you go to
Settings--> About Phone ---> Search for Updates (i think its called something like that)
Now it updates your phone. The 2nd way is searching a HTC RUU. Thats a .exe which also updates the phone via your pc.
You can find them here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1275680
There are just a few Froyo ROMs so it shouldnt be that hard to choose which one suits your phone.
Hope this helps you.
