Better to update a wiki page than a forum post.

indeed..
so true.
but the problem is many people doesn't know (or doesn't want to know) if Defy-Wiki was exist.
even it's on sticky...
i think everyone can contribute and add information on that wiki.

Full list with XDA links. Doesn't compile any information (froyo/gingerbread) on the site, just a bunch of links with a single screenshot but this should help.

[Q] Noob flashing help for my Defy

Hey Guys,
I have had my Defy for about a month. A friend helped me upgrade from 2.1 to 2.3.4 (MotoGiner-test5).
I am interested now in trying the CM7 build. I see it says I need to flash Froyo.
Do I need to flash froyo to install the CM7 onto my phone even though I am running 2.3.4?

yes..u need to start with froyo to install CM7 to avoid any kind of problem

thanks for the help so far guys. getting ready to flash today. Realling battling with battery life and also data usage. Hoping CM7 will help in both cases.

Motorola Defy offical 2.3

Does anybody know release date?

Releasing an official 2.3 Defy will erode Defy+ sales. If you are the owner of Motorola, and your stokeholders hold you accountable to make more profit, what would you do?

As motorola says on facebook - Defy never get 2.3

And I say f*** you motorola next time I buy a new phone

Who cares about a buggy official 2.3 from Motorola when we have CM7?

china did release a 2.3 for defy but seems just do some tiny modification from defy+

So its just a modified Defy+ rom! Damn that sucks. I thought China got an official update. :/
Would you happen to know what build it is?

install this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1285007
it works better than any previous 'official' 2.2!

Because of SOC module Motorola stopped official update to 2.3, it's stupid. How to add language to sbf, is it possible? Some guide or advice, ty

have a look to the motoginger1.1 thread by walter, he is working on a new release 2.0 which may include the language you want. if not he answered a question in his thread somewhere about an app you can install that adds languages i think?

There is way to turn your 2.2 Defy to a 2.3 Defy+....
...and I found it by mistake.
It is really important to know that when you flash a new .sbf file (effectively a new ROM) you CAN ONLY GO FORWARD in Android versions. Why is not important, and there are plenty of guides that explain why, as well as how to do it.
While trying to put CM7 on using the guides, I had to keep going forward, and ended up with a Chinese Defy ROM that didn't work (but unbricked me at the time). The only option was the latest official UK 2.3 Gingerbread ROM (luckily I am in the UK), which I installed. Imagine my astonishment when the model number of my MB525 was now listed in the phone "About" menu as MB526, which is of course the new Defy+.... So it appears I have the Defy+ ROM running on my Defy. I rooted it using Droid 3 Root, and installed Android Overclock and now it runs at 1ghz. Just the battery to install (if it works) and I'll have a Defy+ upgrade package....
Important things to note - it all works so far, but if you follow me you do so on your own responsibility. Also, you can't overclock to higher than 1ghz, because of a locked kernel (look it up, others explain it better).
Good luck!

i'm currently using miui 2.3.5, it works fine, and beatiful, maybe you can try it

and now on cm7 stable

Doesn't matter if Motorola gives us 2.3 or not.
CM7.1 is AGES away from any Stock Rom I've seen so far. Got it running since a couple days on my Defy, and it runs wonderful.

Yeah but it freezes all the time, reboots, camera don't work and still slow. Don't get me wrong it CAN be used (and I was using it for ages)... but the cons outweigh the pros as of yet and I rather use a GB ROM, a lot faster and a lot more stable. I mean kudos to the devs they're doing a great job, but it's still early days IMO

when autorotation is disabled, no more reboots or freezes in my case. And the freshnew version I'm downloading ATM should solve rotation issues
Only camera *preview* doesn't work.

If you are using anything but stock hboot you may have issues as Lenny does modify the rom to primarily suit stock hboot. It will work on other hboots but some apks are missing.
Look at alpharev website and flash back to stock hboot. Do a full wipe and then reflash the rom. From their you should find miui-au pretty stable

I had a problem once changing hboot. I read a few times on different forums that one should always use the "downgrade" hboot prior to changing hboot. Since then i did so, and did not have any problem anymore.

[CM9] Speed up WiFi ..?

Hello !
I remember I flashed another Kernel on CM9 and my WiFi was faster afterwards.
But then I flashed some other Roms etc.
And I lost this one Kernel / Baseband.
If I flash CM9, my WiFi is very very slow ! I google "BMW M6" and it's loading 5 minutes..! What the heck...
Also see: "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=milU7dXQd7c&feature=plcp"
or
I've already searched for ages now, so I decided to ask over here...
Hope someone can help me
I tried to change the Country Code to DE, as I live in Germany via WiFix... Did'nt work.
Anything I can do to speed up the WiFi speed..?
I mean, CM9/CM10 is incredibly fast. I love the design, the speed, but hate the WiFi speed.
Im living in germany...
Anyone able to help me..?

What is your current baseband?

Yes it´s possible. However I recently flashed XXLMB and the power consumption incrased in CM9. And because I flashed it togehter with it´s Modem, I also lost HDSPA. Now I´m back to XXKL3 like b4 and all is fine. HDSPA is also working again.
You need to flash either a firmware which contains the needed Baseband with Odin, or just and extracted Baseband. Then simply restore your backup of your CM9 build.
