Beat me to it. I had the same problem when I flashed FXP052 because I rushed and forgot to wipe the data and the delvic. Follow the wiki and you shouldn't have any problems

[Q] Installing MIUI on Defy; stuck on the Motorola logo

Hi,
I am trying to flash MIUI on my Defy which is currently running the official 2.2.2 released here in India.
What i have done so far (and repeated the entire process several times):
-Rooted the phone using SuperOneClick
-Installed ROM Manager
-Installed Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.1.8 for Defy
-Downloaded 'miuiandroid_Defy-2.3.4a' the then latest version of MIUI from their site and the corresponding language pack
-Installed and booted into custom recovery
-Took a nandroid backup of the current ROM
-Wiped data, cache and dalvik cache
-Selected the .zip ROM file from the sdcard and installed it
-After the installation was done, i rebooted the system
This is where the problem started. I had read that the phone might take forever for its first boot. But in my case, the phone would stay stuck on the M logo till i removed the battery. On restart, the same thing repeated.
I found the SBF for the retail version of 2.2 i found on the forums and used RSD Lite 4.9 to flash it to the phone and then restored the nandroid backup i had made previously to get back to where i started from. And i repeated the entire process 4 times using 3 different versions of MIUI.
Am i missing something here? What can i do to get the phone to move past that M logo? I have been trying to find a solution to this issue since over a week now. None of the forums seem to have a solution to a similar problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Answer to all Your problems
It's a common mistake. You must have forgotten about wipe all (cache and personal data) before installing zip package containing MIUI.

[Q] SBF Mix up

Hi there,
My Defy was on Quarx's 0308 CM9 (With CM7 Kernel), when I tried to install Walters Kernel using 4.5.2-109_DHT-22-kernel.zip. After doing this it did not go past the "M" logo upon reboot.
I then read that others had flashed the fixed DHT-22 kernel to fix this issue. I accidentally selected the wrong SBF (JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-11_BLUR_SIGNED) and I am now stuck in a boot loop. Could anyone please help me figure this out?
Thanks in advance
Can you get into recovery ? , have you tried full wipe , data,catch+dalvik

No can't get into recovery, only into bootloader to flash sbf's.

I was in your situation last week (stuck at m logo), so i flashed a 2.2 sbf, then rooted, installed recovery and installed ics again with correct kernel,
That is the way i done it, its a long way around but I'm not sure if there is a faster way sorry,

i have today this problem.
i found china sbf 2.2.2 work on my defy flash root boot cm7 and cm9
Thanks for the response, I'm busy downloading another SBF to try that, will give feedback and thanks, if I prevail!
Ok, I'm back in action. The issue was that I needed to wipe user data and cache using the standard restore (I think that's what it's called). Anyway instead of looking for a SBF that makes it work, I accessed the standard restore by holding volume - while powering up, then wiped user data and cache, which stopped the boot loop after the reboot.
Now I'm back onto CM9
Glad That Worked me too faced alot probs with CM7 and 9

[Q] stuck on cm logo

Hello, i dont own this phone, but my friend does and for the first time today he rooted his phone and installed cm7, I told him to install the latest stable version I found on get.cm. After that, i sent him a file with gapps, told him to wipe dalvik cache and flash it, now hes stuck on the cm logo. Did he brick the phone? Usually i know my phone is bricked when stuck on Lg logo in my case. Has anybody experienced such thing? and can you maybe tell me the hotkey combination to enter recovery? He has the cm7 kernel. Thank you.

It's not bricked. Google the definition of "bricked" before using it.
Just reinstall the rom, this time flash gapps exactly after.

And make sure you're using the right gapps meant for CM7.

[Q] MIUI for V One Help! (What in hells name am I doing wrong?!)

Hey there;
Firstly, thanks for your great efforts on the ports of your roms and consistent, useful forum help.
I appreciate that you probably get a load of these threads but I could really use some help with the installation of the ROM, as I've had a load of problems trying to install it.
I am attempting to install the MIUI rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797515), and I am coming from the original software that comes with the device.
I have an unrooted One V, coming from the base OS and kernel. Currently, I can't get past the Jellybean Android screen (getting stuck on starting apps), and usually I can't even get past the MIUI screen at all. Here are the steps I've taken;
- I downloaded this kernel: boot-TK-USB-201302150054 from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1765687 and flashed it in fastboot, twice.
- Then launch into recovery, follow the instructions on your thread (format all apart from SD), and go ahead and install the .zip.
- Clear Delvik, clear Battery and Fix permissions, then proceed to reboot in an attempt to get in. At this point it hangs on MIUI screen for up to 5 minutes.
- I then try re-flashing the kernel in fastboot again. Still no help.
- I then try and reinstall the .zip from the SD card, and still no improvement.
I imagine I'm doing something very wrong, but I can't work out what it is and it's driving me crazy.
Can you help?!
Thanks in advance, Reasoner.

Okay, I have now attempted to install YOUR version of MIUI, and I'm still not having any luck.
I have;
- Flashed the boot.img using the one you suggest on your thread (twice)
- Booted into Recovery, cleared all caches excluding SD
- installed from .zip in CWM Recovery
- Cleared Delvik
On reboot I still get stuck on the MIUI screen.

[Q] CM and Gapps version

Hello! I have managed to root my phone, but I got the set up wizard message and the gapps error. After a google search it told me I had the wrong version of gapps. However, when I go to the official gapps page, the download for cm 10.1 only works with 4.2.2 and not 4.1.2. The one for cm 10.0 is for 4.1.2, but on the hercules downloads page, the 10.1 stable release is already out (that's the one I used!). Does this mean I have to run 10.1 without gapps, or downgrade to 10.0 if I want gapps?
Trust me, I have searched for this. Any help would be appreciated.
if you are on 10.1 grab the first one on the page http://goo.im/gapps also double check make sure you have no market installed if you do then you dont need any gapps install everything from the market
Alright
Ok, I'm gonna try that. +1 thanks for you. Man, I'm such a noob. :crying: :crying:

It's circling now...it's been at it for about 5 minutes now...the wait is unbearable!
Circling
It appears to have no end to the blue circling boot screen. I tried clearing cache and factory reset using CWM, no cigar still. Any fixes for this?
The CM version is the 10.1 stable release for hercules.
The gapps version is the 20130301 version.
which link did you flash for the CM what thread point in the right direction where you flashed from ? if you booted up the first flash and gapps were incorrect it shouldnt matter when you update the gapps it wipes the old files just make sure to wipe dalvik/cache and reboot
My Idiocy
I am retarded. I decided to go and unroot the phone and flash a stock rom and try again. I then flashed twrp via odin (which I prefer now) with no problems. But for some reason, no matter how many times I clear everything and try different kernels, the device will just not root. I have tried the superuser zips from the official site, I have tried the superuser from CWM's site, nothing works. Gah. Now what? Am I stuck stock forever?

Just use TWRP to flash whatever (Hercules) ROM you want. Make sure you wipe dalvik, cache, system and data.
Alright, I will try a wipe again, and then flash a custom ROM. If it doesn't root me I will report back with the situation. Thank you for all your help!
Um, just another question before I proceed with wipe and rom...if the ROM is based off of JB 4.2.2, such as Cyanogen mod, will my phone just run 4.2.2 as part of the rom, or will it be incompatible?
EDIT: Never mind...
I love you all forever. It works, and I have gapps running and root access. Thank you so much...I really don't know what to say.
