Video Tutorial: How to install CM7.1 (Android 2.3.7) on the Motorola Defy
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Search that on youtube . The rom is this : update-cm-7.1.0-11-Defy-signed .
After this adventure ( first time for me ) i saw that wifi is not working and i tried to unroot my phone , to get back to 2.2 . After some wipe cache / factory reset and other things my phone started to boot in "Bootmenu or Recovery android .."
. From there i installed again CM7 , and after some time my phone got back screen . ( i think it s called bricked )
After i flash for 2 times some retail froyo i found this : JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002_BLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8RTGB035.0R_USAJRDNFRYORTGB_P003_A002_HWp3_Service1FF and my phone got revived .
This is my story , sorry for my english
Any solutions ?
The youtube tutorial doesn't mention a couple of important steps that may help to avoid problems with CM7. It is recommended to reboot the phone twice after installing 2nd-Init custom recovery. It is also recommended to wipe Cache and Dalvik before and after flashing the CM7 zip file. To do that, follow these steps:
Put the CM7 zip file on your SD card. If you want the Android Market and other Google apps, you must also put the Google apps zip file on your SD card. Links to both of these files can be found on the CM7 development thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1033654
Root and install the "2ndInit Recovery Installer” app, as you did before. It's available here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1032212
Run the app and install custom recovery (the version that is stable for CM-based ROMs), then reboot the phone. The first time you reboot, the custom BootMenu will display. Use the volume buttons to navigate the menu and the power button to select an option. Select Boot > Set Default > Normal > Go Back > Reboot System. After the phone has fully booted up, power it off and reboot again. If the custom recovery installed properly, a blue LED on the phone should briefly light up each time the phone reboots (while the Motorola logo is being displayed).
Turn off USB debugging on the phone (Settings > Applications > Development > USB Debugging), then power off the phone. Press the power button to turn the phone on again, and as soon as the blue LED lights up, press the volume down button. The custom BootMenu will display. Select Recovery > Custom Recovery.
In custom recovery, Wipe DATA/Factory reset, then Wipe CACHE Partition. Also go to Advanced and Wipe Dalvik Cache.
Then select Go Back > install zip from sdcard > choose zip from sdcard, and install the stable build of CM7 (the file called “update-cm-7.1.0-11-Defy-signed.zip”). In the same way, install the google apps zip file (optional, but you won't have the Android Market or any other google apps unless you install it).
Then select "Go Back", wipe data, cache, and dalvik again (not strictly necessary, but may help to avoid some problems), then select "reboot system now”.
Once the phone has fully booted, you’ll have to switch the cellular radio bands to match the frequencies used by your carrier. A baseband switcher app is included with CM7. (In the 7.1.0-11 build of CM7, the baseband switcher can be found in the app tray, and is called “DEFY baseband switcher.” In the latest nightly builds, it is in Settings > Device settings > Baseband switcher.) Open the baseband switcher, click on the tab for your region, and select the option for your carrier. The phone will have to be rebooted again.
Thank s for the info .
Before doing this thing ( root + flash a new rom ) i have some questions.
1 . At the end of that youtube tutorial is the last reboot , then the home screen , apps etc . In my case the logo was running , and after that nothing. i had to pull out the battery
2. If i understood correctly i need to Wipe DATA/Factory reset, then Wipe CACHE Partition then Wipe Dalvik Cache before installing the new rom .
First time i did it without "wipe dalvik cache" . IT s important regarding wifi ?
3. I can go back to the original rom if something will go wrong ?
4.
Then select "Go Back", wipe data, cache, and dalvik again (not strictly necessary, but may help to avoid some problems), then select "reboot system now”.

What problems ?
I saw a bunch of threads regarding the wifi problem , i really need it and i don t want to go trough that panic feeling about the black screen , brick , you name it .
If you want to be able to go back to your present configuration easily without flashing another SBF in RSD Lite, you can back up your system in custom recovery before wiping data etc.
In custom recovery, go to Backup and restore > Backup, and this will create a backup image of your entire system on the SD card. (It’s a lot like creating a “restore point” in a Windows computer. It’s a good idea to back up your entire system like this from time to time anyway.)
Then, if you ever want to return the phone to its present state, just go into custom recovery again and select Recovery > Custom Recovery > Backup and restore > Restore (system & data), then select the system image that you’ve created.
I don't know if wiping cache & dalvik before and after installing CM7 will solve the wifi problem or not, but it's worth a try. If the wifi still doesn't work, you could also try flashing a more recent nightly build after flashing the stable version.
If that doesn't work either, you could then try installing an earlier build of CM7 -- some of those had different wifi modules, which may work better for you. Some earlier builds are available here: http://defy.wdscript.fr/jordan-nightly/
(look for the builds that say "BOOT" in the filename -- for example "cm7-110911-1924-BOOTWIFI3-Jordan.zip")
If the wifi works well with one of those, then you could install a more recent nightly (without the kernel) over it.
Thanks again .
I ll be back monday with an update on my phone status .

Ok i installed cm7 step by step from your tutorial , but the wifi is still not working .
Scanning... => Connecting... => Disconnected
Can you guide me to what old versions exactly to look for ?
When you say " try installing ..." you mean to start from here again ?

I found something that might work but i can t find that line because the file is read only :|
How to Solve the Motorola Defy ME525 WiFi Problem, WiFi Connected But No Internet Access serach this on google . IT s the first link chromloop
The problem you described (where the wifi keeps saying scanning > connecting > disconnected) can sometimes be solved simply by "forgetting" all your saved Wi-Fi networks and then re-adding them. Try this: go into Wi-Fi settings, long-press on each saved network, and select "Forget network." Then try adding a network again and see if it connects.
If that doesn't work, then you can try installing an earlier boot version.
When you say " try installing ..." you mean to start from here again ?
Click to expand...

Just go into the custom recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, then flash the zip file. (You don't even have to wipe data/factory reset again. Then you won't lose all your apps and settings.)
Here's a link to download the earlier boot versions: http://defy.wdscript.fr/jordan-nightly/
I'd recommend trying each of the following, in the order listed:
cm7-110911-1924-BOOTWIFI3-Jordan.zip
cm7-110822-1650-BOOT179-4-Jordan.zip
cm7-110817-1717-BOOT179-Jordan.zip
cm7-110726-0018-BOOTSEA-Jordan.zip
cm7-110615-1323-BOOT177-Jordan.zip
cm7-110610-0726-BOOT343-Jordan-downgrade.zip
Hopefully one of those will solve your wi-fi problem. If that works, then you can try flashing a more recent nightly build (without the kernel) over the working boot version, so you'll still have the latest features.
Good luck! Let me know how it goes.
Well the other night i disabled the wireless n function on defy by this tutorial .
Follow the steps:
1. Use the Root explorer, open this file path: “/etc/wifi/”,
2. Use the file editor to open the “tiwlan.ini”.
3. Find this two lines below, change the value if it is not 0.
HT_Enable = 0 # 0=diable 802.11n support
BurstModeEnable = 0 # 0 - Disabled 1 - Enabled
4. Save the file, then reboot your Defy.
And now shows me this Scanning... => Connecting... => Obtaining an ip address ...
I managed to connect to the internet trough wifi only if i had this settings on my modem . Huawei Hg655b but my Notebook Asus n53sv don t want to connect .
See the file attached . "Wifi on phone"
Second try , i activated the wep encryption and kept the other settings .
This time the Notebook connects just fine , but the phone is stuck on "Obtaining an ip address "
See the file attached "Notebook only"
2nd Problem . Market don t work . the version of google apps that i used is this : gapps-gb-20110828-signed
I attached an image with the error message .
Third problem . There is an official gingerbread rom from motorola for my defy or a good froyo rom ? ( no bloatware , and motorola crap )
The last thing that annoyed me was this rom , it s not fluid , it s laggy , not much but you can see it . . The games run good , no lag and i m afraid to oc the processor to 1000 mhz because the battery life .
That's strange that you're having so many problems with CM7. I wonder if the stable version you downloaded was a corrupted file... Maybe check to see if the MD5sums match. (You can get the MD5sum here: http://www.defy-cm.net/ )
There is an official gingerbread rom from motorola for my defy or a good froyo rom ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No, the official gingerbread roms from Moto are only for the Defy+. If you install them on the Defy, your camera won't work (unless you have a red lense defy), and if you flash the full SBF you won't be able to downgrade to Froyo again.
However, there are a few other good gingerbread roms besides CM7 that work on Defy with green lense. You could try GreenbreadMod or the "Greenbread" version of MS2Ginger. You could also try MIUI (although that's based on CM7).
It s not a good experience for my first root & flash .
I can get back to the official 2.2 rom ?
If yes where i can find it ? Is possible to use moto update software like when i upgrated to 2.2 from 2.1 ?
The only things i want to do with this phone is to use it like a regulary phone , making photos , going on "trips" ( pool and beach) and game .
No wifi problems , No android market problems , just official 2.2. I m tired
Thx for your help again and again .
Someone tried to send it to the warranty with the official rom ?
Yes, you can easily restore it to the official rom if you have either an SBF or a nandroid backup of the official rom. Where are you from, and who is your cellular carrier? Sometime later today (hopefully), I'll write a quick tutorial for returning your phone to its stock condition.
I m from Romania and my carrier is ORANGE.
Did you backup your stock ROM in custom recovery before you installed CM7? If so, you can use that. Otherwise, you'll have to download the firmware (.sbf file) for your region. You may be able to find a working download link on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1116732
Let me know which you will use (either the "nandroid" backup from custom recovery or the .sbf file), and I'll explain how to install it.
Did you backup your stock ROM in custom recovery before you installed CM7?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
No , because it wasn t the official rom . After that mess ( 1st post ) ,i bricked the phone and my only option to get back was to flash with rsd this rom : JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002_BLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8RTGB035.0R_USAJRDNFRYORTGB_P003_A002_HWp3_Service1FF ( Wifi not working on this rom too )
This sbf is good ? "Original SBF mirror: http://www.multiupload.com/29QIKQH3W9"
Or "Anyway I made signed version.
Here you are. 3.4.2-179-002_CEE_deodexed-signed"
This sbf is good ? "Original SBF mirror: http://www.multiupload.com/29QIKQH3W9"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, that's the one you want. The one you mentioned in your first post was made for the UK.
Now i download that original sbf .
What s Next ?
Before flashing an sbf file, it is recommended to wipe data and cache in the stock recovery. To get into the stock recovery, power off the phone, hold in the volume- button then also press and hold the power button. After a few seconds you should see a triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle, and a little green android guy below that. Then press the volume+ and volume- buttons at the same time, and a menu should appear. Use the volume buttons to navigate the menu, and the power button to select an option. Select "wipe data/factory reset" and also "wipe cache partition".
Then power off the phone again (or pull the battery). Make sure the battery is fully charged. Hold in the hold in the volume+ button and the power button at the same time. After about 5 seconds, release the buttons. The bootloader should display – it will show the version and a battery check. Then connect the phone to your computer and flash the sbf file using RSD Lite. (I'm assuming you already know how to do that, since you've done it before.) Wait until the phone has fully rebooted and RSD Lite says “Pass” before closing RSD Lite and disconnecting the USB cable. As an extra precaution, I usually power off the phone before disconnecting the cable.
Good luck!
i flashed the official rom and the wifi is still not working .
IT s stuck on this : Scanning... => Connecting... => Obtaining an ip address ... and sometimes it s connected to my wifi , but with no internet connection
The 3G is working .
I will play with the wifi settings to make it work .
You have any sollutions ?
That's very strange. Have you tried using it with a different wireless router? Maybe your router is the problem. Or your phone might have a hardware problem. Is it still under warranty?
Yes is still under warranty . Was bought last year on march .
After some tries on my router i was able to connect but without internet acces .
Other wireless router i don t have , but these days i ll go to check if the phone can connect to other wifi networks .

Last chance i see to save my phone is by posting here...
So, what i did:
1. Downloaded and installed ClockworkMod 2.5.1.8 (com.kb7sqi.defy.boostrap.old.apk)
2. Made a full BackUp (stored on PC and SD-Card)
3. Wipe data/factory reset + Wipe cache
4. Selected "CyanogenMod 7"-ROM for install
5. Install succeded -> chose "Reboot"
6. Defy stuck at Boot-Loop for like 30 Mins.
7. Removed battery -> held volume down + power button
8. NO ClockworkMod showed up ... instead "Android system recovery <2e>" shows up
9. Wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache doesn't do anything at all
10. only other options are "reboot system now" (, which got me stuck at Boot-Loop again) and "apply sdcard:update.zip" (where do i have to get the update.zip?)
So, i tried to connect my Defy via USB (installed Motorola Defy USB-Drivers and RSD Lite (tried 4.7+, 4.9 and 5.0). None of the RSD Lite Versions could recognize my phone while it's in "Android system recovery <2e>". So i can't "flash" a stock-rom (sbf-Files)...
I tried downloading an update.zip (CookieCutter ROM i found in another forum) and placed the file in the root-directory of my SD-Card. When i chose "apply sdcard:update.zip" i get the Errors:
"E: failed to verify whole-file signature
E: signature verification failed
Installation aborted."
So please, i need your help... how can i save my phone and put it back into the old state? ... thanks in advance
Quick Edit:
I managed to get into "BootLoader" by holding volume up-button, but as soon as it starts it says "Battery Low - Cannot Program" and exits... i charged my defy for hours... "should" be no problem... if it even charges correctly, i don't know... if i connect it via USB to charge it, i got a white light and black screen... nothing seems to charge at all...
I think there is only one thing you can do: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=892026
You defy is not bricked.
But in the state your device is, it cannot charge the battery.
You need to charge the battery with another phone or charger in order to flash an sbf with RSD lite.
Or you can try this hack: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=892026
It was worked form me some time ago...
Thanks for the hope, i'll try this workaround tomorrow, hope it goes well.
So when i actually get the BootLoader working my PC and therefore RSD Lite should recognize my phone and then i just can flash my device with any official .sbf and it works? And when it's flashed i can reinstall ClockworkMod and install my old backup? :X
Do not be afraid. Your Defy is not briked. What should you do after you manage to charge your phone, if your battery is to low:
1) boot it in stock recovery (Vol Down + Power); the Android with a exclamation mark will appear on the screen; you'll have to press both volume buttons (if you had froyo)/press the right lower corner on the screen(if you previously had eclair)
2) wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache
3) restart your phone in bootloader (Vol Up+ Power)
4) connect it to your pc and start RSD Lite 4.9
5) Flash the SBF with RSD Lite (choose one from this topic, maybe you can find there the version that was on your Defy before you tried to put CM7, you might find there also other useful tips)
To install CM7 you need to upgrade your software to Froyo, if you are on Eclair, then install 2nd Init v1.4.2 from this topic and then install CM7. It won't work without 2nd Init and kb7sqi recovery mod doesn't have also the 2nd Init modules. However before upgrading to CM7 you can read this topic as there you'll find all the steps required to install CM7.
You should borrow another battery or charge using desktop charger first.
Try wipe data & cache first from stock recovery. If it doesn't make any change, you can try flash with full sbf. Once had this problems too. Solved with full sbf flash + wipe data & cache.
Good News, i got it charged with the trick and successfully installed the stock ROM via RSD Lite. But now i always get "MD5 mismatch!"-Error when i want to restore my backup created with Clockworkmod :S...
Check if your folder, where the nandroid is stored, contains any spaces in the name. If so remove the spaces.
Yeah, i already did that and tried to fix it with:
# cd /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/2011-05-23.16.30.06
# rm nandroid.md5
# md5sum *img > nandroid.md5

Hi,
I have exactly the same problem but my phone USB-port really doesnt work.
I managed to put the orig. Froyo and changeged the bootlogo but did a mistake with erasing CWM. Now the Defy is stuck in Bootloop.
I can only reach the Bootloader and the Android Recovery System.
I need a working update.zip to flash the phone via SD-card.

I have similar problem. I stuck in boot loop. I am able to go into stock recovery and did a data wipe & cache wipe. Still I am in boot loop. RSDlite also does not shows my phone. Tried in several PCs with different USB cable. But no luck. If there is a possibility to flash stock rom with update.zip, please help me with update.zip. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
Hi guys, I hope you can help me.
I have just rooted + flashed my motorola defy plus for the first time (on any device for that matter)
I installed 2nd init, version 0.6.... or something.
Put a rom, kernel and google apps on my sd-card
Then I turned usb-debugging off and rebooted my phone.
Now I can get into bootmenu, and this is what I do:
1) go to recovery
2) select custom recovery
3) then it says: Clockworkmod Recovery v2.5.1.8
E: Can't open /tmp/recovery.log
4) I then select wipe data/factory reset
5) then it says this: Formatting DATA
Formatting CACHE
FORMATTING SDEXT
No app2sd partition found. Skipping format of /sd-ext
Formatting SDCARD:/.android_secure
Data wipe complete
E: Can't open /tmp/recovery.log
6) After that i select install zip from sdcard
7) then I select choose zip from sdcard
8) then I select the zip file containing the rom
9) And it says: Finding update package
Opening update package
Installing update
E: Can't make /tmp/update_binary
Installation aborted
Now I can't go any further and can't use my phone at all
I hope u guys can help me, and that I haven't F*ed up my phone
what happen if you restart the phone ?
It goes right into bootmenu.
I have however found out how tog et my phone running normal again, I had to select Boot instead of Recovery and the choose Boot Normal.
I do however still want to flash CM9 onto my device but gonna ask here until i'm 100% sure it'll work.
So if you or any1 here got the links to the correct stuff I need, that would be very helpful
may be the sd card
try a different sd card it happen some times
when you restart the phone and you see the blue light, hit the VOL - button.
here choose boot option
select Set Default - and choose [2nd -Init]
restart the phone again.
one more question : what was the last ROM you flashed ?
This was the first time I flashed a ROM (or tried to)
I think the wrong one, can't post links just yet
Ok so I tried it again, and IT WORKED
Now theres a new problem: I get no reception, not for calling, and not for 3g connection.
Anybody knows how to fix this?
At the lockscreen it says Emergency calls only.
I have tried several basebans switchers, but none with any succes.
(I live in Belgium by the way)

Do you have any APN's ?
Go to setting, wifi&networks, then check if you have and APN's in the access point names menu. If you dont you will have to look up an APN for your provider. I had this problem after flashing 2.2.1 sbf.

this is a base band switcher
go to recovery and install the zip
when u restar the phone your should see a baseband swhitcher program
now select the baseband in your country and restart the phone
and thats it !
I tried almost every baseband, still no luck
Can't I just go back to stock? My pc also doens't recognise my defy anymore, so I can't put anything on the SD-card
I didn,t solve the problem that you said in the first post here and in Q&A section, can you detail how you had solved?
Thanks.

What I think did the trick was:
When I installed sndInit for the first time I chose to install the upper version (0,6...).
When I installed it for a second time I chose the version below that (1,....)
Hope this helps for you.
PS: I flashed another ROM and kernel, and now I have android 4 installed with signal/reception
Thanks for helping me guys!

I got no errors and I've lost my last sd-card.(look at here)
I've got a german SOC Device with E-plus SIM-Card and 16GB SD-card.
I'm sure It's not possible to install CM9 on my device because of unfixed bugs, so I ask you to upload a advanced nandroid backup(with backuped system,data,boot,devtree,recovery,cache,sd-ext and pds) of your CM9 SOC or redlens defy.(don't forget to delete data ... and to restore it afterwards).
I'm tired of asking and asking in this forum.With this way I and many others will be able to install Cyanogenmod 9 via the backup, even if we are unable to install it on the common way and the Community won't have to spend us too much time.
PLEASE

I got no errors and I've lost my last sd-card.(look at here)
I've got a german SOC Device with E-plus SIM-Card and 16GB SD-card.
I'm sure It's not possible to install CM9 on my device because of unfixed bugs, so I ask you to upload a advanced nandroid backup(with backuped system,data,boot,devtree,recovery,cache,sd-ext and pds) of your CM9 SOC or redlens defy.(don't forget to delete data ... and to restore it afterwards).
I'm tired of asking and asking in this forum.With this way I and many others will be able to install Cyanogenmod 9 via the backup, even if we are unable to install it on the common way and the Community won't have to spend us too much time.
PLEASE

I understand your concern; if I have had red lens I must have uploaded the nandroid.
However, I have a few workarounds for you:
1. Try some different build of the ICS (Try Epsylon's or Quarx's);
2. May be the downloaded ROM file have some issue with it;
3. This time while downloading do not use any download manager;
4. For the dead SD card you try connecting the SD card to your computer using some card reader and use "SD Formatter" software to format it. Just Google the name.
Hope the above information helps!!
Ok, I understand, but what do you mean with download Manager

Download manager is like a tool like Internet Download Manager(IDM) which makes download faster. However, it actually downloadsfiles in packets(parts) at last it combines all parts into one. Insome rare cases this combining makes the file corrupt.
Hope this helps!!
First things first:
1. Rooting essentially means you are fiddling with the installed OS. This may at times turn ugly and may result in permanent bricking of your phone (simple terms: your device will be dead, wont boot up).
2. Most companies do not entertain warranty claims for a rooted device, obviously because you have unlocked their software.
Ready to take the above risks?? Read On:
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
ROOTING GUIDE:
1. Charge your device to 100%
2. Go to settings/development and check the USB debugging mode to : Enabled.
3. If you have never ever connected your device to PC, connect it via USB cable. You will see that the drivers for your device will get installed.
4. Download UnlockRoot Pro v3.2 (free version) from : http://www.unlockroot.com/download.html
5. Run UnlockRoot.
6. Click root device on left panel of the UnlockRoot UI.
7. Wait till it says : your device is rooted.
8. Your device 'may' restart. Let it restart.
9. Check for 'Superuser' app in your app drawer.
10. Can you see 'Super User' app?? Congo!! Your device is now rooted.
Hey Wait !! Since you are now rooted. You can now install ClockWorkMod recovery on your device. With all the tinkering you will now do on your device, since its rooted, it becomes very important to install a 'System Backing up' tool on you phone. Every time you want to fiddle with your system, make a back up of your entire device (includes OS/Settings/Apps/Data) on an external SD card; so that if something goes wrong, you can restore your backup and your device will be good again (just like recovery point system in Windows OS).
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
INSTALLING CWM and MAKING BACKUP.
1. Be doubly sure that your phone is rooted and charged to 100%.
2. Download CWM.zip file from the attachments at the end of this post.
3. Transfer the CWM.zip file to the external memory card on you device, with the help of USB cable.
4. Switch off your device.
5. Press power + volume (-) button together until you see an android logo. The moment you see the logo, release the buttons.
6. You will next see an android bot logo, with his heart ripped and and exclamation mark on it. He's heart broken that you are fiddling with him.
7. Dont freak out. Now press volume (-) button again and you will see the default recovery manager.
8. Scroll down by pressing volume (-) button, to 'install zip from ext card' option.
9. Select this option by pressing volume (+) button.
10. A new window will open.
11. Scroll down to install from 'external storage' option. Press volume (+) button to select.
12. A new window showing all contents of your SD card will come up.
13. Scroll down and select CWM.zip file. Press volume (+) button to select.
14. The zip will get installed. A new windows will open up showing the CWM recovery manager.
15. Congo !
16. Now lets take 1st backup of your System. Scroll down to backup/restore option and press power button to select.
17. Scroll down to backup and select. Backing up will start. Once finished you will be redirected to the home window of CWM.
18. Now. Scroll down to reboot system option. Press POWER button to select.
19. Your system will shut down. Manually boot up your device again.
* Be careful with the controls for 'scroll' and 'select' in default and CWM recovery. Both are different. Follow the above instructions carefully. * Every time you want to back up/restore your system you have to repeat the above steps. I have not flashed the default recovery with the CWM, so that you always have the stock recovery working, in case everything else fails.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
TO RESTORE A SYSTEM IMAGE YOU CREATED EARLIER WITH CWM.
1. Follow steps 1 - 15 in the above tut.
2. Once you are in CWM recovery. Scroll down to backup/restore option and press power button to select.
3. Scroll down to 'Restore' option and select.
4. Choose the backup image you want to restore. Press power button to select.
5. System restore will start and finish.
6. Reboot.
Always do a backup before you try to uninstall any system app. Never uninstall any app about which you are not sure, what it does. Follow your gut feeling.

Does the stock recovery gets totally replaced wen u flash with CWM or can u revert back to stock recovery later if needed?
Also can u create a flashable zip file or tpt of the stock recovery? It would be great.

ROM DUMP FOR MIBOOK MI3 not working
Byond Mibook Mi3
Android 4.0.3 ICS
1.2 GHz Processor
1GB RAM
I couldn't sign into Google accounts using my Mibook mi3 tablet. It said "Cannot establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary error or your device is not provisioned for data usage."
I use wifi and the connection is stable. I can browse the internet well. I tried factory resetting and getting the same error.
I cannot add Accounts in accounts and sync tab in settings as well.
So i rooted and tried to flash it with the stock flash in the thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2086957) hoping to resolve it.

This problem has been occuring in all mi3 tablets. I had contacted ByondTech Customer Support.
NO NEED TO ROOT TABLET FOR THIS PROBLEM.
They emailed me an update patch which again enabled Google Account access.
update.zip
Select and apply the update.zip file. [For steps check the first post for applying CWM. Similar steps just instead of CWM.zip here file name is update.zip]
Reboot and then you will be able to access Google AC, Play Store, Gmail, etc.
Thanks a lot for Update.zip

Byond Mi1 - Lying Android Bot with exclamation mark
Hello,
my topic doesn't fit perfectly, but after pressing the home and power button on the Mi1 for a few seconds, I have an Android Bot lying on his back with an exclamation mark above him.
Since the Mi1 has only a power button, a home button and a reset button, I don't know how to get it out of this state. If anyone has experienced this, and has a cure, I would be more than happy to hear about it.
I went to the local Byond support center, but they were actually not a support center anymore, they said. And searches on the net only found the same questions, but no answers. Before I try to run to other support centers in the bigger cities, I would like to try my luck here.
Thanks for listening

Hi guys, I have recently loaded UHD 3.0.2 onto my Sony Ericcson Xperia Arc, but when trying to complete the last step below, my phone wont enter CWM. The phone isn't in a boot loop but the Wifi isnt working and I do have the modules on my SD card.
C. Install custom rom
========================
. Turn on ur phone now then keep pressing volume down to enter CWM.
. Standard operation before installing new rom :
- wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- mount and storage -> format /system
- advanced -> wipe dalvik cache
- advanced -> wipe battery stats
. Now install zip from sdcard -> choose the UHD zip file, and follow the instruction in aroma. After finish don't reboot yet.
. Unchecked the reboot in aroma, after finish, u will be back in cwm.
. Now install the wifi modules first ( usually the custom kernel have their own wifi modules).
. reboot system.
. Finish
Please Help!!

Hi Ejazr,
When you finish with aroma press the back key, then select advanced (the last option, in the bottom), and there you'll find the option reboot recovery, select it, then follow with the wifi modules etc.
Good luck.

Hi BajoPrimate,
Thank you for your quick reply I really appreciate it!, I am very very new to this, but what I try to do to enter the CWM mode is shutdown the phone, turn it back on while pressing the down volume button, but it doesn't seem to do anything, it just boots into the normal phone screen, Please help as I desperately need to resolve the issue with my Wi-Fi not authenticating.

Hi Ejazr, try another key, in my brother's phone it's the back key, but it could be another, reboot and try eventually you'll get it.
Edited : my brother says that with this room he uses volumen down key also, so I don't know, perhaps you could try installing x-parts from the market, but be careful, I'm not sure now. Sorry and good luck.
Good luck, and you're welcome.

Well, just Flash the .587 ftf . and then flash the kernel, and then install ROM from CWM. It should work if your did this procedural properly.
Wish the best . :good:
