Thank you for your great board and programs.
Noobie(3 wks), Droid X, 2.3.34
Current issues(just the facts m'aam)
1.TiBU Pro reported as installed. Shows in App mgr. No icon If uninstalled by phone or marked then reinstalled, same issue
2. Cannot format boot sector(partition?) Error Boot Formating (does it thru Rom Mgr, Clwks, and using GLD's total wipe procedure.
3. Can Ti BU Pro be run off the SD card, so that I would not have to go thru market to pick it up before doing anything else?, ie skip whole VRZ thing.
History
I have been having a lot of fun with Roms and themes. Installed Darkslide, couldn't get it working, next Rubix, worked ok, but never could get themes working over it, so I decided to SBF back to stock to clean out whatever was left over. Got back to working fine stock. Decided to try Liberty. Worked well as Rom but I liked Rubix Foc 2.0 better. Picked up Rom Man at this point(had been working thru bootstraper x rooted with command line procedure) Also, forgot, when I rooted 2nd time after SBF, I tried Do root a couple of times. Didn't feel comfortable with that "keep doing it til it works" mentality, so switched to Z4 Root . Worked flawlessly. Put Rubix back on phone but Liberty splas comes up before the rotating cube which does come up.
Thanks for your help Haven't found any of these issues addressed in any of the Droid forums, but Droid stuff is REALLY scattered, so if you could point me in the right direction if it is old hat I would appreciate it.

If you were impatient and flashed a leaked SBF like and still wants to get the official update, here is a shord guide for you. I examined the 6.36.0 sbf and the code groups for CG31 and CG39 are the same as the leaked froyos so i flashed it on my phone running CM7 and it booted After it i downloaded the OTA let it install and now i am on the official 2.2. I can change it with the CM7 anytime i want and if i have to take the phone to the service restore it to stock 2.2 So step by step
1. If you are on any leaked froyo download the latest us eclair sbf(JORDN_U3_6.36.0) from http://www.and-developers.com/sbf:defy
2. Boot into the stock recovery and wipe
3. Boot into the bootloader and install the SBF from point 1
4. Let the phone reboot then go throught the motorola blur registration then setup a wifi connection.
5. Download the OTA (settings->about) and if the download finished let it reboot and install the update.
6. Enjoy stock untouched 2.2 T mobile froyo
hi is this only for US people or will it work in UK as well?
It will work but it does not worth it. It is the same version as the one was a month ago... the nordic 177 or CM7 is better.

What is the version number after the update?
Anyone can upload nandroid and sbf ?
It came out as OTA so no sbf available. Every version is the same as it was with the test update... it is android 2.2.1 34.4.9 they did not changed anything from the test update so i am not satisfied at all...

Can i send in my defy for service with this rom?
Edit: I guess this rom is official. Read this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044980 .Cool stuff. Thanks for the heads up!
I tried flashing this and now my phone wont turn on i needed this so i can return it to T-Mobile with a stock ROM, but now my phone won't even turn on. Tried removing battery and putting back in, no matter how long i press the power button, it wont even turn on. help plz
On which rom were you before? Did you wiped before flashing the sbf? I have done it myself many times.
i was on CM7 and i wiped and flashed like u said. it might be my phone.
EDIT:
well nevermind, looks like the screen is fried. it seems to have flashed but the screen wont display anything cause when i plug it in to the computer, i hear the little beep and the LED notification appears, but no display.
you cant burn the screen like that. If it beeps then you are ok. You should try flashing the nordic sbf for example, fom it i have gone fortth and back to the us froyo the way i described.
so what should you do:
1remove your battery and while putting it back hold volume up.
2 start RSD lite and connact your phone
3 if it is connected flash the sbf.
If the PC does not sees the defy then your battery is flat. Charge it with an external or try mcgyver, you cant brick defy with flashing.
Will this work if you flashed the 2.2 OTA then used a custom froyo ROM. I basically want to take this phone back to stock.
I thought we couldn't downgrade.

i was on nordic when i did the things i written. Got back the official now i have done it from other custom roms like CM7, but wipe in the stock recovery before trying it. I dont have any problem but seems like someone had so be careful.
I'll give it a shot because my nandroid restore is buggy.
Will post results.

It would be interesting if it wont work for you. Cg-s for the us eclair are same as for the froyos

Finally a way for US users to return to FULL STOCK regardless of firmware
It worked!!!
I was on barbones 1.5.1 then went to a backup nandroid version of my original stock rooted. Was kind of buggy so I decided to try this
1. Wiped everything using the stock recovery
2. Bootloader and flashed nordic 2.2.2 and "skipped" the automated setup until the phone desktop appeared then waited until RSD said the phone "passed".
3.Wiped everything using the stock recovery again
4. Bootloader and flashed 2.1 JORDN_U3_6.36.0 then pressed "start" at the motoblur screen and waited until RSD said the phone "passed".
5. I then entered my motoblur info and "skipped" everything until I was at the android desktop. After syncing was finished (waited about 5 min) I proceeded to "Download the OTA (settings->about->system updates) and after the download finishes let it reboot to install the update"
Thanks "vick33" nice find!
Note:
I could not update the kindle app without it giving me unsigned package errors. My solution was to root and uninstall the oem kindle app.
Then unroot and perform a factory reset. The oem kindle app did not restore and I was able to install the latest kindle without errors.
No other issues have been found.
*** CONFIRMERD TO WORK ***Another solution maybe to update the kindle app prior to updating the phone to 2.2 via OTA. Possible the better way to go considering it does not require rooting or removal of a system installed bloatware.
i mean the screen doesnt show anything. screen is black, idk whats wrong with it. im not saying the sbf had anything to do with it, just saying the screen went out. i just turned it in anyways, so ill be getting a new one soon.
Playing on ics on my phone is doable, but the tab won't play at all. Worked barely under hc as it was, but hw acceleration or software both freeze up. Stock or arhd. Anyone else play this and having the same problem?

I have the same problem, got for free from Amazon. It worked flawlessly on HC for me but not even booting up on ICS.
Worked until I reset the device
It worked okay for me upon first start-up after upgrading to ICS on my Transformer. Since I had to do a reset to factory so I would stop getting the FC's on my google media, no go. It will get to the yard screen of level one then freeze. That happened once. The rest of the time it stops around the hour glass.
having the same problem ...
I played though the first 3 levels w/o problems.
I guess PopCap needs to repackage the game for ICS.
I have some problem
Am running stock rooted 9.2.1.17 ICS. Played 5 hours today without problem with my daughter. File I have is named "plants_vs_zombies_hd_android.apk" I used CWM to install pre-rooted 9.2.1.11 and then used CWM again to flash 9.2.1.17 update. Don't know why others are having so much trouble.
Amazon vs HD
I think this is exactly the problem. The Amazon (as they say in "the Scene") "crap non-working fake" version has finally fallen over completely with ICS. OTOH, the HD version (there is one, and it's completely different) works great on ICS (9.2.1.17). I'm running it now.

Hi all!! I'm new in this forum.. I found it because I had lots of problems with 2.3.6 gingerbread.. so I needed to downgrade to 2.3.5.
So I flashed a full 2.3.4 then upgraded to 2.3.5 kpn, then cw root..
Then I found 3.7 frankestain mod.. everything went good...
Now I see you uploaded 3.8.. and wifi new drivers...
how to upgrade to new mod?
just copy to sdcard and install from recoverymode? or I've to go back to some old firmware?
and I guess I need a wipe before, right?
thanks
I can answer myself
I wiped to factory default and installed 3.8 from sd.
Mod is nice and fluid.
I'm testing a bit. Since this night it reeboted by itself once. I wonder if it could be caused from wifi?!
And seems I've another little bug. I've the app crash when I try to personalize tones from address book, and I cannot change from settings/tones too.
the only tones that work are the only files included in system-media.
Any hint?
However, good job!!
thanks
Hi everyone,
I have the GS3 and I am currently running the newest Galaxy Mod ROM by Pure. As soon as I ran the v6 supercharger script, for some reason. I can no longer download market apps via WiFi. They work fine over 4g and I can download everything else via WiFi but specifically market apps say "downloading" but never make any progress. Now for the strangest part, I have even wiped data/cache, flashed 2 different ROMs, etc but still have the same issue. I'm a ROM flashing addict and this is my 4th rooted phone so I'm not new to this but I've never seen this issue before. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!
