Install RSDLite on your PC. Use WinRAR or 7zip to decompress the. gz file you downloaded (there is an sbf file inside - the clean Froyo firmware you want to flash - and save it somewhere.
Take your Defy and press the power and volume up button and release after some seconds so that you enter the bootloader mode (you see some white text on black ground).
Connect the phone via USB with your PC with RSDLite running.
In RSDLite click the button with the three dots and open the sbf file you extracted.
Hit the start button. Now it starts flashing the firmware, takes a couple of minutes.
When it's done the phone reboots and is running a Motorola Froyo firmware (not rooted or something, it can't really be called a ROM). If you want you can root, install CWM again etc and put your ROM in it again.
Almost always when your Defy is doesn't boot anymore or is somehow broken softwarewise, you can use this method to repair it.
thank you for your time.

If you want the recovery menu you need to install 2ndinit. http://goo.gl/5P89P
Open the app and install the recovery menu with it, then reboot (some say it is safer to reboot even two times). You get the blue LED after powering the phone on, you have to press volume down then. There you can get to the custom recovery and wipe data, cache, install zips from SD etc.

Please take some time and search this forum. These kind of questions have been answered numerous times...
setting——application——development——USB debugging
He can't disable usb debugging..... He can't even booot! its a bootloop. Besides disabling usb debugging trick is only for booting into clockwork mod recovery. The earlier poster is right! SEARCH THE FORUMS. You are attempting to flash custom roms and such without even knowing what an sbf is????? Sounds crazy to me!
Flash a proper sbf and it WILL work
you prolly restored a backup and did not flashed the right .sbf.
Or didnt flashed at all.
Try to read the steps again.
2.) Flash 3.4.3-11 Motorola SBF with RSD Lite in bootloader mode
SBF ?? i don't know what this !
i already have backup from clockworkmod
how i can boot to clockworkmod ??
No wonder why u're stuck on motorola logo.
Let me break it down for you.
Make sure you have motodrivers installed or install them here.
And install the RSD Lite too Here
Turn off your phone, hit the power+volume up together.
Wait till u're in the bootloader.
Open the RSD Lite, u phone should be detected so u click on "..." select the .sbf u downloaded from here
And flash it.
Wait till is over, and your phone should be good again.

so detailed
who in their right mind attempts to flash anything without first familiarizing themselves with the processes involved, understand the risks and how to recover from them etc. etc. If you don't know what a sbf file is maybe you should do some reading before flashing.... You can't boot into clockwork unless you have a working system... It's a bootstrap recovery that must be launched from the recovery app! You should know this by now if you are flashing roms
He should also WIPE first. The one time I didn't wipe before flashing sbf.....FC's like CRAZY!!
Hi everyone!
First of all, thank you for taking the time to read this!
I have tried to do research on my problem but can't solve it...
The problem is that i can't get into recovery to backup my stock rom.
Specs: HTC Wildfire S, marvel A510e, S-on, Bootloader unlocked, Rooted, Radio-7.54.39.28M, Andriod 2.3.5, HTC sence: 2.1, Current Recovery: ClockworkMod 5.0.2.8, Super SU.
I followed the guide: "How to root the Wildfire S with S-ON"on Andriod forums by CafeKampuchia, thumbs up for him, It got me this far but, now I want to do the thing for which I rooted my phone in the first place: Installing a costum ROM. Therefore I want to backup my stock ROM.
When I open in HBOOT (1.09.0099) and select recovery, the phone reboots and i see the HTC screen, this disappears after 2 sec and my screen turns black... (phone is still on beceause the buttons on the bottom are lighted.)
When I boot the normal way and try to boot into recovery trough CWM ROM manager same thing happen. Also flashed this recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1213229 Same thing happed...
So how can i backup my stock rom?
Many thanks in advantage!

P.S maybe its better to pull out battery when you chck fastboot in settings...power off your phone and pull out batt...then put it in and hold power key and volume down at the same time...then choose recovery

Hello!
We have already faced this problem. We cannot find the reason why on some devices CWM is not working. It is characteristic for some devices. The decision is not found yet. We used all known methods for today, and all CWM versions (5.0.2.6 & 5.0.2.8), but are not present result.
Colleagues from 4pda.ru
You might try placing update zip on root of your sdcard and choose apply update from sdcard.
Too bad it doesn't have reinstall packages.

Thanks, to do what exactly? Use it to rename recovery file to update.zip and flash it that way?
CWM is installed, even different versions.. Any damn problem is i can';t get into recovery.
Is there any other way to backup stock ROM besides recovery?!?!?!

didn't work I already tried.I want to know what kinds of things relate to recovery，kernel？booting？
factory reset....
Now i was stupid enough to press factory reset in HBOOT.... -_-
After boot the phone keeps loading...
Any opties?
Try Alquez's PG76IMG unofficial cwm recovery. Put it on root of sdcard and boot into hboot. Accept update to install recovery.

So I made a stupid mistake but know where. This is not my first time to flash roms and karnels, but don't know where did I go wrong...
So here goes the story:
I had Racing Bean for a while and then I decided to change so I wanted to try the new Kit Kat
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2545367
First I went back to stock 0.587 (because I never did before) and then I forgot to install recoveryX.
After that I flashed the karnel (nAa karnel)
So now I can't go in to recovery to install the rom and wipe the system
I tried.
Volume Down
Volume Down + Home
Home + (Connecting the cable)
Volume Up + Connecting the cable
Maybe something more but can't remember
What should I do? Thanks in advance
ARC S (LT18i)
BTW: When the legacy logo loads a purple light blinks but nothing...
Well if you have flashed the kernel you should be able to boot to recovery... Turn on phone...as soon as logo comes keep pressing any button... The purple led will change to blue and it should take you to recovery...

Usually kernel is inside the Rom (zip file) when u download, u should go with that kernel for best compatibility.
copy the zip file to sdcard
extract the zip to get .img file, flash your device with that file.
enter the recovery and install the zip file u copied
wipe cache, data ...
install gapps if u want
wipe again
reboot

Never had this case.... I will wait for a while because of the first boot but didn't have this problem before.....
BTW: I use the V. Down to go in recovery (CWM 5 installed before this!!)
EDIT:
1.1 (optional): If the device is not booting, reboot to bootloader again and run:
fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata
Should I try this? One thing to check how do you go to bootloader on arc s (flashmod?)

Hey guys,
I had a rooted Galaxy Wonder with a custom Rom (TouchWiz, forgot which version). I had CWM 5 and wanted to Install CWM 6 so I can be able to get the Kitkat 4.4 Rom, but unfortunately I soft bricked it. I flashed a custom Rom using Odin 4.43 Multi Downloader and it successfully passed, but with a problem, it doesn't get to the Homescreen and it keeps of rebooting itself all over again. I can get to download mode and to stock recovery. So I thought I could maybe root it again and install CWM 6 to flash the rom.
Now the problem is that when I use the stock recovery (by Holding Vol Up+Home+Power) I don't get to install the root update.zip because it reboots itself after I press the menu button (it writes something about updating then reboots).
What can I do? Is there anyway to Root the device via Odin and install CWM 6 so I can flash a custom rom?
Help!
Thanks in advance!

You don't need to root it again since it's already rooted (when you first installed TouchWiz) and it's not the cause i think.

Just download Phil's Advanced CWM recovery, and flash it (CWM recovery 6.0.4.5) Flash the recovery like any else recovery you flashed.
Download the .op and the cwm recovery (Flashable via odin multi downloader ) Here
And make sure you are running Windows 7, and not Windows 8, I have experienced problems flashing recovery on Windows 8 64bit

this might be the cause, so we need do clean wipe of all the data/ files in your internal storage. We need to make it boot first since it's not just a recovery problem but ROM.
Do you still have the touchwiz rom in your external sd-card? If it's still there, do this steps in cmw:
select "wipe data / factory reset"
go to "mounts & storage" and format /system. This is extremely important!
under the same menu, format /sdcard0 (be careful NOT to format /sdcard1 by mistake)
install touchwiz
reboot

install touchwiz (and gapps if you have)

If its touchwi5, you dont have to install gapps, they are already in there

Corrected. Never knew gapps was already integrated w/ that ROM, never tried it

Hello Vatsalbh9, follow the steps in video to root your phone.
1. Yes you need to root your device to use custom recovery.
2 & 3. You need to use odin first to get cwm recovery installed in your phone. Follow video steps.
4. When you have installed cwm recovery mode with odin, just go to recovery mode (keep holding vol up+power+home button until samsung galaxy grand gt i9082 logo appears on screen). Der you will see backup option. So make a nandroid backup in your external sd card and transfer that backup (clockworkmod folder in your ext sd card) in your laptop or pc for future use.
Download the files given in the description of the video.

Follow these steps for nandroid backup :-
1. Enter into recovery mode(vol up+power+home button)
2. U will see many options like - reboot system, install from zip, wipe data... Bla bla bla... And BACKUP AND RESTORE
3. Select Backup & Restore option.
4. Once u select it, again many options will come but choose backup on ext sd card/sdcard01
5. Nandroid backup will take around 5-10 mins depending upon your data size.
6. Once the process is complete, you will see a text written on bottom of screen 'Backup is complete'.... Go back to previous menu and reboot your phone.
7. You will find "clockworkmode" folder in your ext sd card. This folder contains your nandroid backup. Transfer this folder to another safe location like pc or laptop.
Note.. While in cwm recovery mode, use vol up and down key for navigation and power key for selecting any particular option.
Also dont increase comments for saying thanks, just press the thanks button
For installing any custom rom, download and save the rom, GApps in your ext sd card and flash them in cwm recovery mode.
Steps for installing rom will be given in respective rom threads but generally these steps are to be performed :-
1. Wipe data/factory reset
2. Wipe cache partition
3. Wipe dalvik cache
4. Install rom(zip)
Once installation is complete, install GApps
5. Wipe cache partition
6. Wipe delvik cache
7. Reboot your phone.
First boot of every custom rom will take a longer time to boot.. Varying from 3-10 mins, so dont panic.
Also some custom roms require latest version of cwm recovery, so before installing custom rom, download the recovery and flash it..
1. In cwm( if it is a zip file)
Or
2. In odin( if it is a. Img or. Tar file)

Redo the process.... I think cwm is not installed on ur phone yet. When you see pass in odin.. Just remove the battery manually... Wait for 5-6 seconds.. Den reboot your phone.. Once a normal reboot is completed... Den go to recovery mode....
Hope u get it this time.
Ok...
Is the CWM provided in the YouTube link is latest ?
Cz if I want to install latest rom will it support ?
And is it necessary to flash supersu via CWM for installing custom rom ? Or only CWM is enough ?

No it isnt the latest version, but it will help you to proceed further. Once you get this cwm recovery mode, you can easily flash latest version as well.. And there will be a link given for recommend recovery in rom thread.
No it isnt necessary to flash super su as all cm11 based roms have inbuilt super su with them.
I already have custom ROM and 4.4.4 KitKat . I am very happy that I did it by the help of XDA forum
When can i get Android L update .

Seems like you dont have usb drivers installed properly in your pc. Does the ID:Com turns into blue color when you connect your phone to pc? If not then install samsung kies first on ur pc.
See d screenshot... The portion circled should be blue... Before hitting start.
Yes sir it turns blue...it says about ID:COM(3) something...
Odin says added...
Then only I start Flashing...

1. Use this recovery by pawitp
2. Untick Auto reboot checkbox in Odin.
3. Once Odin shows pass, remove battery, wait 10-15 secs, re-insert and enter Recovery mode (by pressing Vol up +. Power button + Home keys at once until u see boot loader screen and release immediately).

Before you start odin kill kies at background using task manager else it will fail
I didnt immediately took off the battery... I let the fon boot after flashing... I think im making a mistake there... cz I had checked auto reboot in my attempts...
Now im gonna try by unchecking auto reboot option...
When Odin will display Pass, I will disconnect fon from usb and then take off the battery...
Will wait for 15 secs and then will try to boot into recovery mode...
Hope its all done... Fingers crossed...
And I have to release all three buttons(up+home+power)when galaxy grand logo appears... is it right ?
