new method!! 30/5/11
download this
download
basically.....flash the nandroid from within recovery then straight into bootloader the flash .sbf via rds lite.
or not basically......
put the nandroid on ur sdcard in folders called "goapkrev" and inside that "backup"
ok you need to install clock work recovery from my ultimate defy package
then boot into clock work recovery
choose back up>then select the nandroid
wait for that to do its stuff
then pull battery out
then enter bootloader by holding volume up and power for 5 secs
then connect phone to pc
make sure you have moto drivers and rsd installed
then in rsd lite choose the "3.4.3_11-Fixed.BLUR.sbf" file and click
wait for that to finish and that should be it
if you get a boot loop enter recovery power and volume down for 5 secs you should get a black screen
then volume up and down at the same time
wipe all data
reboot!
that should be froyo!!
you can now install a custom rom ontop of that if you wish
thats from memory but i think that should work
any questions ill try to help
my old guide below
contains my ultimate defy package which has every thing you need to root, recovery and install froyo all zipped up in a nice package if you prefer to do it that way
Code:
[color="#0000FF"][size="6"][u][b]This guide will show you how to get foryo on your Motorola defy ahead of schedules!! [/b][/u][/size][/color]
use at own risk not fully tested
[color="#00FF00"][size="4"]as it stands every thing seems to be working in froyo now including wifi gps camera market led and sensors
however it is still a custom rom and i acept no responsibilty if u brick it which is very hard on this phone[/size]
[/color]
[color="#0000FF"][size="4"]First i reccomend you download my ultimate defy package it contains every thing you should need to get froyo working! (still needs testing but should work)[/size][/color]
[size="6"][url="http://www.filefactory.com/file/b577129/n/Ultimate_Defy_Package.zip"]Downlaod my ultimate defy package[/url][/size]
[color="#FF0000"][b][size="5"]Detaled method(scroll down for short method)[/size][/b][/color]
Just because you can drop it in the bath doest protect it from bricking make sure you read carefully to avoid this and if you do brick it it can usually be recovered. I accept no responsibility for what happens but i will try and help.
1. You should have already downloaded my ultimate defy package so navigate to the froyo section
2. First install moto drivers either 32 or 64 bit depending on your os version
3. Then install RSD lite
4. Then reboot pc
5. Then put either the T-Mobile US or GB update (the whole folder) on your phones sd card under goapkrev/backup
6. Power phone on into bootloader mode by holding power on and volume up for about 5 secconds
7. Then start RSD lite and in the file name section navigate to the (JDGC_U6_0.26.0_SIGNED......sbf) image inside the Chinese 2.2 folder
8. Select device from the box below and click start and give it about 5 mins until it says its done and let it reboot
9. Then use super one click to root phone (make sure usb debugging is enabled in applications>development>usb debugging (tick box))
10. Next turn usb debugging off and install the recovery apk
11. Then click on install system recovery and allow super user permissions
12. Then boot into recovery mode (navigate around using volume, power to select)
13. Clear data and cache
14. Then go to back up & restore > advanced restore and choose the GB or US update you put their earlier
15. Wait for that to finish and then pull battery out
16. When you put is back in you need to boot into bootloader mode again (volume up and power)
17. Then in the same way use RSD lite to flash the file inside the boot image folder
18. Reboot
That should be froyo!!!

Sorry so can u flash the gb. Sfb straight off and I will work. This method does work but i made the guide b4 it became available and only just got round to posting it here. This way does work but I may update it if that way works it sounds simpler
Hi!
I live in Brazil. Then, what update should I use? T-Mob or UK? Any of them will work?
And, I saw a large number of defys that had unworking/dead flash and unworking Market. On this mod, both of them works fine?
Mobile info:
Sys version: Blur_Version.6.14.5.MB525.AmericaMovil.en.BR
Version Number: 01
Model: MB525
FW version: 2.1-Update1
Version Number: JORLA_U3_6.14.5
Thx.

Is this the UK 3.4.2-117 froyo you are talking about?
or this:
2.2.1 Froyo, Build 3.4.3-3 en.GB with Blur
Thanks! I wish this is available before I flashed 2.2. It really scared me when things went wrong.
*enter bootlader mode flash TmobileUS_Boot_Devtree.sbf
i'm currently at this part. i flash it and was at 'please manually reboot your phone', but when i do it, i'm stuck in a boot loop. any idea?
i tried redoing the flash again, and even went to wipe the data again before starting the flash again, but still stuck in a boot loop.
nice how-to guide!
PLEASE HELP ME....i did everything , i followed instructions perfectly, but when it came to letting the phone reboot after flashing the sbf file it just did not reboot, now nothing is happening on my phone at all. i think it bricked please help me A.S.AP thanks
please help me, its not switching on or anything, the only sign of life is a white led when connected to computer via usb.
it is still being recognised by rsd, ive re flashed it 3 times and left to reboot but the phone just does not reboot, i realy am stuck on this one
well i have re flashed the original
JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1_BLUR_P3_SIGN_SIGNED_USAJRDNEMARAB1B8TMGB030.0R_USAJORDANTMGB_P039_A015_M003_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
and it is back as it was before...that was a right panic attack i was having!...but any way does anyone know what could have gone wrong? because in rsd it goes up to executing 100% but it never reboots the phone.??
could it have been because my defy was rooted? or could it be because busybox wasnt installed properly? i do not know
hmmm sounds odd.
thats what happens when u have downgradability problems what version where u on b4?
i know what u mean panic attack when it wont turn on grrrrrr
but youll be happy to know as well as being hard on the outside its quite tough on the inside and very hard to brick!
yeah thank god for that hey!
i was / am running android 2.1 build U3_ 2.51.1 but it is rooted.
thats odd then. i have no idea why that happened rooting it shouldnt effect it ne way.
however this guide is outdated now and their are easyer ways to do it now
but personally i would reccomend to jump straight up to gingerbread with cm7 its totally the dogs dangalys
would it be possible for you to point me in the direction of that please? sorry i would look myself but id probly get the wrong version or something. also would it be possible instead just to download and use the nordic one in uk? would i still get internet and signal and stuff?
the nordic one from herehttp://and-developers.com/sbf:defy ? or would the orange 2.3 one work for a t-mob uk?
Dear Techies
I love to play around and use new gadgets ans fotware. Android is my first choice but unfortunately this something very new for me. I was looking for Jelly Bean and got it as Pacman. Which i came to know is combo of three ROMS features.
I decided to go for first time for custom ROM with my SOny Xperia Pro MK16i. It was having its official ROM as ICS (b 587 i suppose).
I could read 3 steps mainly one was Unlocking the boot and then Root and then flash ROM. I did first 2 (right i suppose) but when i came to the last one for flashing the custom ROM i suppose i did something wrong.
with flashtool i flashed IMG file in fastboot mode. I was done without any error i did restart to the system. Pacman logo came with SONY under it but then nothing i did 3-4 times but i was left with very dim light screen with nothing on it.
But i suppose this was a better position than now. here i think i did the main mistake i again flashed with recoveryNeo IMG (it was in fastboot folder which i downloaed earlier).:crying:
SInce then its blank no light for first 2-3 attempts for restarting it vibrate but now even it doesnt vibrate.
I dont what to do next lots of question did i bricked my phone. Is that recoverable ? can i still get it back to official ROM if yes then how or can i still put custom ROM if yes then HOW ?
Please help
thanks in advance
Please guys Help me

After flashing the kernel, you need to boot through recovery mode with the PACman build (.zip) available on your SD storage. To log in to recovery mode, as soon as you get the PACman SONY splash screen (when LED turns blue) press the volume down button located at the side of your device. Once into recovery:
1. back up your data
2. wipe all user data and cache
3. Install update from a zip file and pick the relevant ROM
Just in case you're completely locked out and want your old ICS 587 build, just switch off your cellphone, connect it to your PC with Sony PCC installed. In all probability, PCC identifies it as a Sony device but not the model. Follow the steps on the screen and choose xperia pro when the option to install stock OS appears.
I bricked my xperia pro twice before successfully upgrading to PACman 17 so its a pretty normal scenario.
Do let us know how goes it!
Hi everyone,
Before criticizing me for posting this thread please note that I've spent a lot of time googling and trying to find a solution.
Before I begin I want to mention that I'm pretty new to android system. I learned few basics today but must admit I'm a noob. I've had my Xperia Arc S for a while now, but decided to root it (got annoyed with all restrictions + bloadware). But to the point.
After few hours I successfully unlocked bootloader and rooted my device. It's been 7 hours now and I'm really stuck. Finally I decided to get help from you guys - I'm just fed up with it.
Here's my problem:
At the first place I had Android 2.3.4 [4.0.2.a.0.62]. Found out that this version is hard to unlock and root, so I downgraded it to 4.0.2.a.0.42 (which apparently was easier to achieve what I wanted).
Then I followed the guide how to unlock bootloader - succeeded.
Later I used OneClickRoot to root my device - also succeeded.
Now the problem begins - I've read this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1592104
Tried to install CWM using Rom Manager - failed as I got the message that my LT18i is not supported. Instead I installed X-Parts and using it I installed CWM. Seems it all went fine but I can't access Recovery Mode - and seriously I tried everything: volume up, volume down, hold, pressing few times, tried even with back and menu button. I also tried "Reboot to recovery" option in X-Parts - still no result.
I downloaded SE Extreme Tweak and installed CWM using this program but still nothing.
As far as I know to install new ROM I need an access to Recovery Menu. I want to install Stock ROM 2.3.4 [4.0.2.a.0.62] (the one I had before) and remove unnecessary bloatware.
Any suggestions guys? How to fix that Recovery Mode problem?
My device details:
Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S
LT18i
Android version: 2.3.4
Buld number: 4.0.2.A.0.42
Thanks for any help!

Have you tried flashing a custom kernel? As far as I know, they come with recovery pre-installed. I'd suggest you give the following a go. Should definitely work for you.

Thanks for reply. Well the thing is - maybe it's a bit silly reason - that I love the favourites widget in 2.3.4. As far as I know this widget is not available in any other versions - even custom ROM's....
edit: Sorry just noticed that it's actually "fixed" version of stock Kernel. Thanks, will try to give it a go then
Are these similar to what you're looking for?

I'm sure Google Play has a lot of what you want.
The first one is. I used it before - need to use Go Launcher with it though, which I didn't really like :/
The one I'm talking about is called "favorites and call log widget" (sorry apparently as a new user I can't post outside links to show you what I'm exactly after)
@ MarcSinger
thanks again for trying to help, I've read the post, however it still requires to boot the phone in recovery mode, which I'm not able to do
Any other suggestions guys?
Guys I sorted it out!!
I unrooted the phone (don't know if this helped), rooted again, then found this app "5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 Auto-Installer", installed it on my device and installed CWM from there. Now I can access Recovery Mode. Finally I can carry on with flashing ROM. Will try to install what MarcSinger posted.

If your bootloader is unlocked then simply flash a kernel with CWM, no need to install it via the apps.

u solved it yourslef, lol.
this app is cwm-auto-installer. i always use it after rooted to install cwm though i flashed the custom kernel had cwm pre-installed.
2 cwm is just better for me, i dont know why but i use lupusv14 kernel, in kernel's cwm, it doesnt do the action "advance restore" like restore system only, so i return to manual cwm to do this

sr, i just seen this notif. maybe cwm was not installed actually, though these apps (xpart, rommanager, recovery...) said is was completed. i think these apps cannot install by ifself (if i remember exactly, cuz a long time ago n i dont use arc anymore). so u must use cwm-auto-installer app, install this app, open it then tap 3rd line to install cwm inside this app. i always do that after root (though i use kernel have cwm preinstalled).
after that, when u power on ur phone, ull see green led light which means u have cwm already n able to access cwm by pressing volume (-) when that led light appear, through that moment u cant access anymore n must reboot to try again. or easier u can use [ndr utils] app, have all reboot option.

If you have an unlocked bootloader just flash a kernel with CWM on it, why go through all the trouble to use CWM auto installer if it doesn't work for you?
You could also try connecting your phone with your computer, make sure you have adb drivers installed and adb turned on in developers settings on your phone , then just type in this command within a terminal: adb reboot recovery .
Please Note that this solution does not mean you haven't got recovery installed on your phone, so this one might fail.!
Have you guys tried holding power + camera? I once had a recovery installed which used the camera button to enter recovery
Also do not press the power button for to long or your phone might just restart and doesn't have the time to boot in recovery, so start up holding volume down or up and press power, realease the power after like 7 seconds , (can't remember how long it really was so experiment.... )
hello everyone,
I am having some big trouble with my phone. since the update to lollipop its getting worse.
and now the problems:
1.) I can't reboot to recovery anymore.. it's unbelievable but it doesn't work no more. neither with an app nor manually. (phone off. phone on. press power and volume down simultaneously and let go when Sony logo appears.) tried NTR Utilities which was pre-installed..nope. tried quickboot.. nope.
2.) sometimes when I used my phone a lot I cannot turn off my 3g or my GPS from the status bar. you know you can customize your bar with 3g or hotspot or GPS etc. and my shortcuts in the downer part of the status bar don't work no more. I can press them shortcuts but it won't work. than I have to restart my phone. and it works again..
3.) when my phone is locked and I press the power button to enter my pattern the display gets bright as the sun (seriously!) all the background gets almost white and afterwards it's getting normal brightness again.. still don't know why this is happening..
4.) and sometimes when I want to take a picture the standard camera app says that I don't have a SD card in my phone (I have one ) . so it changes the save directory of the photos. but when I release the SD card and put it back in the phone everything is normal..
anyone has the same issues?
hope one of you guys can help me.

I don't know much, but it may help to know if you're using locked or unlocked boot loader, which kernel, which ROM, which recovery, did you flash any other mods, (xposed etc.)... These things help people help you. I don't know technical stuff, but I know that some ROMs have recovery built in, and some don't, so you have to flash yourself. Some ROMs work with some recoveries and not others. If you're rooted and unlocked BL, it may be as simple as installing Rashr, and flashing a new rec. image. In general, I've found that CM type ROMs do better with TWRP, whereas stock-based work well with CWM. If your BL is locked, it seems like Nut's dual recovery might be best. Use the PC installer for best results if you can't get any recovery at all.
The other problems you described also sound to me like ROM or kernel issues, and not necessarily lollipop related. Did you do a full wipe before updating, (system,data, and cache)? Did you flash a kernel first, etc., etc...
Like I said, I'm no expert, but I've been helped enough that I'm glad to help if I can. You just might need to add some more info.
The issue with a very bright display is true for my phone as well. I guess that it's rom or kernel related...
Heres what I suggest you do since It worked on mine:
1) Unlock your bootloader here.
2) Re-flash Lollipop FW using Flashtool
3) Boot the phone
4) Reboot Into fastboot mode and in Flashtool flash a custom kernel that has a dual recovery and is for lollipop.
5) Once the phone boots, vol - to enter recovery and flash the latest Supersu zip file to get your fw rooted
6) Download SELinuxMode Changer and set it to permissive
7) This should pretty much fix all problems
Hi ,
my phone was bricked after installing a notch mod with magisk (which mean it was prefectly rooted) , when i restarted the phone after installation of the mod , the bootloader was looping , then it suggest to restore factory reset , which i did, then it pops out : NO command.
please i want to do a fresh installation of the system, how to proceed ? (i'm a total noob at flashing)
; thanks in advance.

At the "No Command" screen, press the Volume Up and Power button to open Recovery Mode.
This will take you to the recovery screen.
After that, choose "Clear data / factory reset". Use the Volume buttons to scroll down and the Power key to confirm this.
Then select "Yes" with the power button.
At the end, choose "Reboot system now" using the power key.
Do not use this module: "THIS MOD ONLY TESTED AND VERIFIED TO OPERATE ON THE PH-1 ESSENTIAL AND WILL NOT SUPPORT OTHER DEVICES IF IT DOES NOT WORK". in the description
Thank you for your rely Bruno.
I succefully booted by flashing an original boot.img that i found here on the forum, but now the phone kinda bugs and the laucher is laggy from time to time, i would like to know which commands should i use to flash a fresh rom with ADB ( link to the rom : https://en.miui.com/download-354.html)
thanks in advance !
There are batch files included in the archive. Just pick the one which fits your needs. For a clean fresh start without relocking the bootloader use the "flash_all.bat".
Be sure to have fastboot.exe in the same directory where you started the batch file. Don't use "flash_all_except_storage.bat", because you need to clean the notch
killer from your device.
Or use MiFlash tool (google it) and you can flash via a graphical userinterface.

I would not recommend that. The official pie have been released today. You can easily get the update without any vpn stuff
