Hi guys,
got problems with cm7
HOWTO
to flash cm7 rom you have to take 3 steps (after unpacking the 7z archive)
step 1 - copy update.zip and GAPPS ADDON to sdcard
step 2 - flash new kernel (always use the kernel provided in CM7 / it is incompatible with stock ROM)
ON PC - run fastboot flash boot boot.img (an black window will open and will stay open untill kernel is flashed)
ON PHONE - put phone in fastboot mode (power off then press lower right key and plug usb cable) and phone LED will light BLUE
step 3
- when phone is booting (FreeXperia Logo) press volume down key several times to enter recovery
- choose apply update from sdcard and select rom
- choose apply update from sdcard and select GAPPS
- wipe device
- reboot

have i to unpack GAPPS ADDON file o just put it into sd card as it is?
on recovery i can find a list of "no" and just update.zip (that i guess is the ROM, isn't it?). nothing more, no GAPPS. any ideas on what i'm doing wrong? thanks

You need to copy both .zip files to the SD card (CM7 and gapps) and flash them in recovery. Do not unpack any of the files, unless you want to make modifications to them.
In recovery, choose "install zip from SD card" option, select the CM7 file first, wait for the flash to complete, then go to "install zip..." again, and select the gapps file.
Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache (this last one is under the "advanced" menu in recovery), then reboot.
Better to do all this with full battery, to avoid drain issues.
The screen is like this
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-No
-Yes - Install /sdcard/update.zip
-No
-No
-No
i had to rename update-cm-7.1.0-XperiaArc-LT15i-KANG-signed.zip as update.zip and works, but grapps misses.
have i to rename the file gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip? if yes, how?
thanks for helping me

Windmobile LG Optimus 2x
I am trying to upgrade my Windmobile LG Optimus 2x. So I rooted the phone. Then I used ROM Manager from ClockworkMod. I chose the option "Flash ClockworkMod Recovery" and then I have a problem: the phone keeps rebooting. Eventually I removed the battery and tried turning on again and it booted. It went back to the way it was when I bought the phone. All applications were gone. I tried one more time and same thing happened.

Hi guys , i m new here .
I have some problems with wifi .
- I can connect to my network after some time 30 sec , but only if i have checked "enable auto ip"
- when the connnection is done , i can t acces the internet .
This is all my story about my defy .
I updated first to froyo with "Motorola update manager" and after some time and alot of applications installed i done a factory reset . After that i was thinking to root my defy . I rooted and installed this .
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 .

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 ?

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?

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 .
hi everyone; my galaxy nexus is rooted and i'm trying to learn clockworkmod and i have e been format system, cache and data.. and my phone is not boot the anroid i press the power button screen is GOOGLE and padlock logo but no boot What should I do
is this a joke or what?
u formatted everything (included system where the OS is installed)...what do u expect to boot now? u deleted everything in ur phone
flash a rom
Oh boy... Here we go again... Sorry to be an ass but read people READ before go messing with your multi hundreds dollar/euro phone! And don't use the B word.
Flash a ROM and be sure to read what you should do, in what order, what the risks are and how NOT to do it. There is a huge information source right on these forums but try to give it some effort yourself.
/* end rant */
Now go to the devellopment section, read all stickies and if you then don't succeed: ask again.

why would you think formatting system is a good idea? would you format your C: drive on your computer like that?
the good news is your phone is not bricked, you need to learn to use fastboot and reinstall android.

Welcome to XDA, next time a search would have gotten you the information you were looking for.
The good news is, you're not bricked. Boot into recovery manually, mount USB and attach your phone to your computer. From there you can drop a rom into your phones storage and flash.
Take some time and read through some of the threads. Starting with the pinned ones at the top of the page.
FLASHING a rom 101:
Switch off phone
Boot to RECOVERY mode by pressing the Volunme buttons and POWER button simultaneously .
Scroll the Volume button down till you see “RECOVERY MODE ” . Then press POWER button to select.
The phone will boot into Recovery mode and you will see the RECOVERY menu.
Using the vol buttons , scroll up or down to and perform the following actions :
Press POWER button to activate your choice
- Clear cache partition
- At Advanced – select it and choose Clear Dalvik Cache
- Select ” wipe data/factory reset” ( Read the NOTES below on this step )
- GO Back and select ” Install zip from SD card” – than select ” Choose zip from SDcard” . You will see a list of all your files in the SDcard – use the volume button to scroll up or down and select the rom zip file . Press POWER button to select it
Your phone will start to flash the new rom
Wait for process to finish and phone will reboot successfully into the new rom. This process will take 2-3 minutes to complete
NOTES : Most rom developers will advise you to wipe phone , ie clear data/factory reset when flashing their upgraded roms or new roms. The main reason is to avoid bugs or unnecessary force closures and all such reports with phone wipe clean will enable the rom developers a more accurate assessment of your issues. However this step is really unnecessary if you are flashing among roms of same build ( eg 4.0.3). It is advisable to wipe clean if you are moving from say 4.01 or 4.0.2 to 4.0.3. Anyway if you did not wipe phone clean and you faced continual rebooting , than last option is switch off phone. Boot back to recovery mode, select clear data/factory reset and reboot system
You use the same method if you just need to flash KERNEL only. Just copy the kernel zip file into phone and follow same procedures. NO need to clear data/factory reset if you are flashing kernel only...
thank u everyone i solve the problem using galaxy nexus root toolkit v1.3 i press flash stock + unlock and my phone is workin sorry guys but thank u

Read before messing with your phone please.
It is a little late but with search you will find this thread easily.
you can just flash a recovery with fastboot no problem at all.
then boot to recovery and flash what ever u want.
Yo. Don't go formatting stuff unless Instructed to.
And also have a rom ready if you do this. If you would like a place where all the roms are I'll send you a link.
Are you a CDMA sprint or Verizon???
Or a GSM???
Hi All
Sorry for my bad English
I wanted to flash the following rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1626331
but after flashing my phone keeps rebooting (looping on on boot)
On the same thread I came across a solution that creating a partition through recovery >> advance will fix the looping issue. But no matter which option is select in recovery menu the screen goes blank with REVOLUTIONARY logo in the center.
please HELP !!!
I flashed the rom through ROM MANAGER app in market
I have flashed other roms before and they worked fine but this one didn't.
Thanks in advance

I think what Lesicnik1 meant was: you use the power button to select recovery in HBOOT. In Clockworkmod you should use the trackball to select - not the power button
(although I remember slightly you could set the other too - but I'm not sure)
--- EDIT ---
On the other hand - if you already flashed other ROMs you should be used to that.
So if that's not your problem: have you tried to reflash this - or a different ROM? Besides that CM9 is officially experimental bootloops often are caused by not wiping caches. It's also a good idea to format system before flashing a totally different ROM.

I'm able to select the advanced option and I also created a partition EXT size 512 SWP size 0 but my phone is still not booting it keeps looping.
I have also noticed that very time I partition my SD card it gets completely formatted (even deleting the Zip file)
I have always been using the ROM manager app to install it worked fine but this rom keeps looping
should I partition and then install the Zip file or the other way ?
Am I doing any thing wrong .
Thanks again @Lesicnik1 and @eventcom
Partitioning the SD card does format it.
Do this.
Partition SD Card (not needed if you already did)
Go back to the main menu of the recovery
Mounts and Storage
Wipe Data
Wipe System
Connect USB cable to phone
Mount USB Storage
Put ROM's .zip file on
Re-flash ROM
I see (haven't read carefully) not an ICS ROM - just ICS style. If you used to have a CM ROM before wiping system shouldn't be necessary (but it wouldn't harm also) - I always do the following when flashing a new ROM: format system, wipe cache, flash the new ROM, flash GApps. The requirements of the thread say furthermore: "Wipe Dalvik,Cache and Data" - so first: have you done that?
Do you use custom mtd partitions on your phone? (as you always have to reflash the bravo-boot-file afterwards...)
