Updating to 34.4.9 if you're on the leaked FroYo ROM - Defy Android Development

While I was waiting for a 34.4.9 Nandroid so that I could get out of the leaked T-Mo US FroYo ROM, racca suggested an ingenious way of getting the update to work. I tried it and true enough, everything went without a hitch...
I am posting the method here as an alternative to flashing the Nandroid:
Files needed:
3.6.190 Nandroid: http://www.multiupload.com/WUL9KCXA3H
3.6.360 Update: http://www.mediafire.com/?ke2i73aa8i3pyem
34.4.9 Update: http://www.multiupload.com/YOXKQ18YW0
Initial Steps:
Note: Do this for both updates
1. Extract "updater-script" from the update. The files is located in: META-INF\com\google\android\
2. Delete everything between this line: "mount("MTD", "system", "/system");" and this line: ui_print("Verifying current system...");
3. And then delete everything between this line: "show_progress(0.100000,0);" and this line: "set_progress(1.000000);"
4. Save the edited file
5. Open the update and navigate to: META-INF\com\google\android\
6. Overwrite the updater-script file
7. Close the update
Steps:
1. Root your phone and install Tenfar's Bootstrap Recovery for the Defy
2. Transfer all of the required files to your SD Card making sure that the 3.6.190 Nandroid is in the correct folder: goapkrev/backup/
3. Create a Nandroid of your current system - DO NOT RESTART
4. Restore the Stock 3.6.190 Nandroid - DO NOT RESTART!
5. Apply the 3.6.360 Update by selecting the "update from zip" option - DO NOT RESTART!
6. Apply the 34.4.9 Update by selecting the "update from zip" option - DO NOT RESTART!
7. Wipe data/cache
8. Restart your phone

First link (http://www.multiupload.com/WUL9KCXA3H) does not work. Please doulbe check!
* Some how if you click on the url's link in my post (that I copied from his) it works *
* I was so happy that I forgot to say "thank you"; THANK YOU! *

All I did was flash official nandbackup from
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=985688
over the leaked U.S. SBF and did a wipe in setting/privacy after restore or nand.... worked like a charm.

Sorry, there was an error when I posted the links. Fixed it now...

Tested 3G data and camera and flash and wifi all working fine.
BTW im using a UK defy with a US image in AUS.

Haha! Great!
So it works for other models as well...

im getting occasional google talk authentication failures even though the password is correct.
i had this happen with the early leaked roms also a few times apps wouldnt download from market place had to reboot to fix.
All the rest is brilliant.

This method works beautifully!!!
Only I restored my own nandroid 3.6.360 then applied the edited update, etc. etc.
!!!! MAN I LOVE XDA FORUMS !!!!

Thank you for sharing the nandroid. I was just about need it. One little question here, can I extract some specific files from the backup without flash it?

Noverca HTC Rom - Vodafone Magic - TESTING

hi. it's just a port of daldroid's rom
daldroid said:
OK, I tried to prepare a working rom for you. No patches respect to my original mod for the "other Magics" except for APN list.
changed the kernel and wifi driver for your device, but I'm not able to test it.
So, please, flash this only if you are used to flash firmware and prepared to have a non working system.
I REPEAT. I made this ROM without testing if bootable or working on vodafone and likes Magics. Be prepared to reflash a previous working rom you already flashed and tested.
WARNING !!! WARNING !!!! Please read all the post before trying to flash
FLASH THIS ROM AT YOUR OWN RISK. IT'S UNTESTED
1) Download the file daldroid-untested-vodamagic-signed.zip
2) rename it to update.zip
3) copy to the sdcard
4) start in recovery mode, WIPE and try to update.
Let me know if it works for you.
SUGGESTION: If you can resist to the temptation, allow for somebody else to post if it works or not! ;-)

Tested and big bugs for me:

2.- cannot finish google account wizard. It says something about "open your keyboard" and cannot continue.
Anyone have the same problems??

Sorry, I'm not able to test this version of the rom because it doesn't run on my TIM magic. Maybe something related to boot.img working for vodafone, maybe something related to fixups.
The original was only an almost vanilla mod of the original rom kindly dumped by joost39. (added adb shell root and disabled rom secure)
Sorry for asking, but did you wipe your existing data and cache partitions when switching from your former rom?
If bugs are confirmed I could try to generate an image as similar to the original as I can (I'll have to change the kernel and wifi, however, but the problems you are reporting don't appear related to HW support in the kernel).
If you didn't wipe, try a wipe of the data and let us know.
Bye

I've made the process of "apply updates" two times (both of them wiping first).
I'll try to format the sd card and start the process again.
I think it's something related with the HTC Dialer.

In order to debug the problem with contacts ppl reported, I made the image as much like to the original as possible.
I suppose you can clear conf settings in menu->settings->applications
or just copy system/customize/CID/default.xml from the update.zip
adb remount
adb push ....
reboot and verify if all the languages are unlocked.
Or wait for the next rom image ;-)

[Expired as Official Released] Moto APAC leak-25*1 / Apps2ext / Themes

MOTO TEST LEAK FOR APAC REGION - 2.2.1( NANDROID BACKUP )
​
On 26-11-2011, member ed213 informed us about a Moto test release received by a operator ( which one is not known ), presumably in Hongkong. It was not a sbf ,but they received their milestones updated to the latest release. He has provided us with a nandroid backup of his phone. The following is the kernal details from my phone after i flashed the nandroid.
Build date is Wed Jan 19 00:39:50 CST 2011.
All credits go to ed213 for the release information / nandroid backup.
__________________________________________________________________
What works
The nandroid had the vulnerable recovery flashed, so you can start using OR.
Root and overclock works.
Market autoupdates.
Multilanguage support ( English, Dutch, Spanish, French, Italian, Portugese, Polish, Turkish, Chinese , German )
__________________________________________________________________
Download links
Original stock

Nandroid backup with updated apps/overclocked
Check this post
Nandroid with apps2ext enabled
Check this post
You can also check this thread for more details starting from post no 56.
__________________________________________________________________
Procedure
Extract the contents of the downloaded zip file ( the nandroid folder ) to the nandroid/openrecovery folder of your sdcard and choose " restore all" in the nandroid menu of OR. Once the contents are extracted, the directory structure should look like this. If the nandroid/openrecovery folder does not exist in the sdcard, you will have to manually create them. Once copied the directory structure should look like this.
nandroid/openrecovery/nandroid/img files+md5 files
​
Then follow this post for detailed instructions.
Procedure to get apps2ext working
1. Install the nandroid of your choice ( not the one which has apps2ext already applied )
2. Reboot to recovery. Run AOR. In console type the following.
Code:
mkdir /system/sd ( note, there is a space between the command and the path )
cd /system
ls
It should show the sd folder. Check if it is present. Type exit to get back to AOR.
3. Apply the attached apps2ext zip file
4. Reboot
5. Install busybox from market
6. Reboot to recovery. Wipe all. Reboot
7. Install your apps and check if apps2ext is working.
People who are comfortable using adb can follow this guide to get apps2ext working. This is also for people who are having problems with their sdcard after creating ext partition.

First Impressions
Overclocked to 900Mhz, Feels a little more smooth than the Vivo Release, battery life is very very good ( check here )The app lag that one felt in the Vivo release is still there, but a little less. Will keep all of you posted of any developments.

Tips, tricks, mods for better performance
For better flash and video performance, try this. ( Thanks Luca )
Overclocking ( check here ) ( procedure for overclock here ) . The new updated Milestone overclock available in market is reported as working, but i haven't tried it out ( does not work).

Apps2ext is working. Check this link for the procedure to get it working.

It should work. If you don't get your network signal after use, try flashing the Greek baseband using Androidiani OR.
Can some one upload the file to another file server as I can not open multiupload in china?

Best Guide!!!! How to Root and Install roms and GOT 2.2.1 AND ALOT MORE!

Hi All, This is an All-in-one thread with available roms (for both Eclair and GOT 2.2.1 leak), how to root + apply roms for GOT 2.2.1 Leak, petitions, projects, etc. Please read everything carefully and good luck
(SCROLL DOWN FOR LIST OF ROMS, PETITIONS, ETC!)
Disclaimer: I am not responsible if anything happens to your device. Please read the whole text over before applying roms. Use at your own risk.
It is strongly recommended that you wipe data + cache + dlavik (may not be spelled right) cache before applying ANY roms.
Also, make sure to have vulnerable recovery and root installed (I do not think you need vulnerable recovery for 2.1 BUT ROOT IS NEEDED) However it is acquired, root is needed.
Also, MAKE SURE YOU NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING TO YOUR DEVICE!!! GOOD LUCK
How-To Root (On GOT 2.2.1) (All the files were taken straight from the GOT homepage)
Note: Please, make sure your device is fully charged before you attempt to do this!
The following files all have vulnerable recovery pre-installed:
DACH – GERMANY :
http://www.multiupload.com/G9PP7JN78C
DACH AUSTRIA :
http://www.multiupload.com/P8DDXCWW03
RETAIL EUROPE (RTEU) :
http://www.multiupload.com/6X7H39HGCG
FRANCE RETAIL :

UK RETAIL (RTUK) :
http://www.multiupload.com/60B78PRKNY
TELUS CANADA :
http://www.multiupload.com/5S2CYGP3VW
Download the file according to where you live.
Now, you must install RSD Lite (taken from http://tinyurl.com/3xg5xwj):
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=N1MPCX1U
mirror: http://www.multiupload.com/jw25luksh2 (not tested by me, found from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=983516 thanks nagi603 and eXtink please report in comments if it works!)
I'm pretty sure you may have to install the drivers for your device, a simple google may help. - This may be required.
Next, open RSD Lite and click the "..." and navigate to the file you have downloaded above.
Next, plug in your phone in bootloader mode. To do this, turn your phone off, then hold the power button, the top volume button and the camera button at the same time. Then you should enter bootloader mode. It should say Bootloader at the top. Make sure, at the bottom it says "Battery OK". Please, make sure you have fully charged your device! Then click the start button. Wait for a while.
Once its booted, plug the device into your computer via usb, then go to memory card access. Then go to the root of the sd card (on your computer)
Now, download and OR (For this tutorial, I will be using Androidani 3.3, the link is a the bottom).
In the rar file there should be two things. One should be a folder named "OpenRecovery" (Note: Make sure thats the file name!) and an update.zip file. Next, put the OpenRecovery folder in the root of your sd card. (If you have never used an OR before, you should NOT have to replace anything!) Also put the update.zip in the root of your sd card.
Next, turn the phone off. Now, while turning your phone on, (THIS MAY NOT WORK FOR SOME PEOPLE) hold the camera and power button until you see the M logo, then release the power button but keep holding the camera button. You should see a caution sign. Next, click the up button (on the volume rocker) and camera button after. Keep trying it if it doesn't take you to a menu. Next, slide out your keyboard then using the d-pad navigate to "apply update.zip" and click the middle button. Once its applied, you should have a bigger, longer menu. Then navigate to root phone in the new menu. Once this is done, you should be rooted.
How to apply custom roms:
Now that you have root and an OR (Open Recovery), turn on your phone and plug it into your computer in memory card access. (Or, you can navigate to the OR [By above method] and click memory card access, it should be the first or second option in the menu)
Once you are at the root of your sd card, go to OpenRecovery folder, then click updates. After that, put a rom that is an UPDATE (Some roms are not, some can be nandroid backups. It should specify on thread) For example, as of now, cyanogen mod by kabaldan is an update.
If the rom is a nandroid backup (Again, it should specify on thread) (For example, as of now, MotoFroyoSense is a nandroid backup), then navigate to the root folder then go to nandroid folder and click one of the folders within the nandroid folder (any, it doesn't matter) and put the nandroid backup (AS A FOLDER, not rar) and finally, turn off your phone.
Then navigate back to the OpenRecovery menu and click updates (if its an update rom) and click it, or if its a nandroid, navigate to nandroid then nandroid restore, and restore the rom.
Remember to wipe before you apply any roms!
Now, as an addition, here are all the roms available for milestone! They can be found in a cleaner thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=11593755#post11593755

Thanks to all the developers and all the members that made this happen. I want to say a specific thanks to sileshn for unintentionally inspiring me to make this thread
Please press the thanks button if I helped. If a mod thinks this should be stickied, please do
Good work. A newbie can find out what he wants and where to go from this thread.
Miui ROM original site is miui.com ( Chinese Developers ). There is also miui-dev.com ( Run by Markhuk ). Then there is Lalit's MOD.
I would suggest to also add a section that deals with HOW TO , like how to nandroid / how to get your phone to stock etc.
There is the european froyo leak, its in the general forum.
Thanks

I read somewhere, someone put a file with all the moto apps, does anyone knows where?
What does one has to do to get the MotoCam working on any rom?
I know i've asked this in another thread, but i wanna know! I prefer that cam!

Hi, it may be possible to extract to other roms. However, it is included in this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=929646. For best results, I would use the nandroid backup created by sileshn
Edit: Honestly, I prefer that camera over the one that is found in Cyanogen 6, FroyoMod, etc. I too would like to find out if someone can use this camera instead of the one found in other roms.
i found that very helpful, great job!
a section about overclock would be great!

Thanks, and please press the thanks button. Also, to overclock, just go to google, search milestone overclock and find the google project one and download the apk. YOU MUST HAVE ROOT!! Good luck Or, for more experienced members, just use the option in Androidani 3.3 (There should be one)
Just a question. I live in South Africa, and I got my Milestone here. If I check my version with the motorola software update application it just tells me I have a Motorola Global phone. So which vulnerable recovery will I need to download? Also, how will this affect my baseband versions etc?
I am currently running the latest stock Eclair on my Milestone, and found this thread as the most thorough instructions available. I am new to android flashing, but not new to phone flashing.
So, basically in order to upgrade to the Cyanogen mod, i would need:
1. Download this for vulnerable recovery (same as open recovery?) UK RETAIL (RTUK)
2. Install it via RSD Lite
3. Wipe everything in the data + cache + dlavik folders on my phone. (do I have to wipe the SD card at any point?)
4. Install Cyanogen Mod via open recovery
Did I get this right? Did i miss something? Thanks!
Is there are a step I should pay extra attention to in order to not screw up my phone?
Thanks and sorry for being such a newb.

If I were you, I would update to GOT 2.2.1 as the vulnerable recovery is already there. You would just flash using rsd lite (link in first post) I am not sure if any drivers were required. To be on the safe side, I would google (34 bit or 64 bit) windows xp, vista or 7 motorola milestone drivers depending on which one you have. I had drivers when I did this. I will try to find links when I have time. I would flash the according GOT 2.2.1 leak and use androidani 3.3 OR to I install basebands if they are the wrong one. It is really eqsy to root and install roms on milestone with this. I would just use my tutorial to install got 2.2.1 and install cyanogen mod 6.1.2 (best experience for me).
Good luck

[ROM][Updated 10/02/11] Higgsy_Modded_3.4.2_GB_Froyo_RC2

Update 10/02/11:
For existing users of the ROM, flash the 2.2GB_NoCG_31_39.sbf (Link below). This will flash the rest of the ROM apart from the part that stops the ROM from being downgradable and system - Don't worry your ROM will be as it was before after flashing - you won't loose any data.
##CAN PEOPLE POST WHETHER THEY ARE HAVING GTALK/MARKET ISSUES PLEASE## Please also post if it is working ok for you
Back up after needing to sort out a few niggles and an issue with the rom including my Titanium backup license key. Now RC2.
Higgsy Modded 3.4.2 GB Froyo for Motorola Defy.
Fully working, no niggles ROM. Everything works. Its a blank canvas, All social networking blur stuff removed, some widgets, some other stuff.
Included:
Launcher Pro
Milestone Overclock
Titanium Backup
Widgetsoid2
Clockworkmod Recovery
Es File Explorer
Also:
Deodexed
Rooted/Busbox (Busybox installed in /system)
Over clock Script included with following freq/vsel 1000/52, 600/36, 300/26. (milestone overclock is not loaded as default - just go in and load module and set to apply on boot then forget about it)
Install process - this must be followed to the last letter - there is no variation so please don't ask.
If you have already followed the process to get onto a downgradable base, (i.e. you already flashed RC1, or, you followed the other thread Here then all you need to do is boot into clockworkmod, wipe data/cache and restore this. It will wipe everything again, sorry about that.
I never flashed a non downgradable .sbf before, such as 2.51 Eclair, or the GB/US Froyo, so can't vouch for whether it will work correctly on peoples devices that have done that, you should however just be able to flash the system/image if you've already got a 3.4.2 froyo base. If you have never either recieved the phone/flashed one of the undowngradable .sbfs, this process will ensure you keep you downgradibility.
Files Needed to complete This:
2.2 Chinese .sbf(Unzip the .sbf from the archive)
Higgsy_Modded_3.4.2_GB_Froyo_RC2 (Unzip and put folder in the sdcard/goapkrev/backup folder)
Superoneclick Root
Clockworkmod Recovery
2.2GB_NoGG_31_39.sbf(Unzip the .sbf from the archive)
1)Make a backup of all your apps with Titanium backup on your current ROM.
2)Boot into Stock recovery (Power On/Vol Down, then press bottom right hand corner of the screen when you see the warning sign) Then perform a data wipe.
3)Using RSD Lite flash the 2.2 Chinese ROM (Guide Here if you need it!)
4)Once the phone has rebooted, skip set up, root via superoneclick and then install clockworkmod recovery/apply.
5)Boot into Clockworkmod Recovery and wipe data/cache
6)Now got to backup/restore and restore the Higgsy_Modded_3.4.2_GB_Froyo.
6)Important! Once the restore is complete pull the battery, as you are reconnecting the battery hold volume up, so that it goes straight into bootloader.
7)Once in bootloader flash the 2.2GB_NoCG_31_39.sbf by RSD Lite
8)Once the above is completed it should reboot and you are done
PLEASE READ:
I don't recommend restoring settings via titanium backup, only apps/app data, in the past I have done this and found it problematic. I suggest to redo your settings manually.
If you want to use setvsel (as it now works fine with froyo) you need to remove the setscaling scripts I put in for overclock and also milestone overclock. Setscaling scripts are located: /system/xbin/setscaling.sh + /system/etc/install-recovery.sh
If you report a bug I need to know what roms /things you have flashed before, there are too many variables, most notably if you been on non downgradable roms
Enjoy!!!
Thanks go to:
Sorensiim - Hosting all my files
mcm_xyz - for the haptics fix
Bizzaboy - for info on updating media profiles, so improving video recording
Authors of all the apps included in here, donate or buy the full versions they are worth it!
Further updates I intend to release as update.zip's, looking at themes, bugfixes (even though there aren't any that I can find) etc etc...... Please don't pester me for these, I do it as a hobby and sometimes don't have time for days to do things.
Change log:
03/02/11
RC2 release
Removed my TI Backup license that I had inadvertently included
Removed various info from the data.img, that I believe could have been cuasing some of the niggly issues people were having.
01/02/11
RC1 Initial Release
fantastic work !!!! will try after i'm gone from work
+1 looking forward to trying after work today

Hey higgsy, i didn't flash your ROM yet but i have a question
At the moment I have a Defy which is on 2.34, and I didn't upgrade yet because i NEED a downgradable ROM (for warranty reasons, the DE version is still at 2.21)
now thanks to your tutorial, i can upgrade to froyo while being able to downgrade to the official 2.21 if needed, but here's my question:
what happens if i nand restore a different ROM based on the 3.42 UK rom (like HandlerExploit's upcoming Vanilla version), will I still be able to downgrade?
(e.g. does restoring a backup WITHOUT flashing a new sbf make your device undowngradable?)

Its flashing the sbf what locks you out of being undowngradable. simply restoring a system and/or data partition should not cause an issue. Ask the authors of the other ROMs, I can't comment on what effect there releases will have on your phone.

Screens are pointless mate, its a blank canvas there is no theming etc. the screens in my 2.2 CN thread are pretty much the same
Looks nice,
so far running very smooth every thing ive tested and works well as far as i can tell!!
although I cannot got into recovery just get a black screen
Overall very nice cheers!!
Duh! I just flashed the uk rom posted by iaio72. I just realize it is not deodexed and i *must* (must?) replace that statusbar. If i understand correctly, it is not possible to theme odexed roms, right? Do you think i can just flash your system image or may this raise some issues ?
Higgsy, first of all thanks you very much for this rom, but I have a "little" problem. With a clean nandroid and with your, I have problems with gmail notification and "google talk connection problem" (don't know how is exactly writen, I have in another language)
what can be?
Edit: Just say: "Google Talk failed to login. If this is a google Apps account, confirm that Chat service is enabled for this account."

Just a blind guess: you did disable usb debugging before booting into recovery, right? This is mandatory for froyo (don't know why though).
Another, market is not the new.
Edit: Now is up to date, it just didn't want to update, or install app. Removed data and restarted. Somebody know something about the other issue?
If I already followed the safe upgrade to 3.4.2, it should be good enough to simply do a nandroid restore and flash devtree again, right? I so want to get rid of blur
Camera not working!
Everything run smooth but the camera is not working.
if i'm already on 2.51 (it came stock), how do I go about flashing this froyo release?
Can anyone help? thanks.
Hi, Thanks for the good work
I've the same problem with Talk, authentification problem...
I've another problem with the LED from camera doesn't work.
Any idea?
gratias mate, for your work.
I had the blur-UK ROM installed, so I was able to restore your system.img only. Non of my data got lost and it's running smooth on your deblured version

[ROM][Port][Updated: 20-Aug-2011]GB MIUI for Milestone2 All-in-one update.zip

THIS THREAD IS OUTDATED. DO NOT USE. LOOK FOR OTHER MIUI ROMS AVAILABLE ON DEVELOPMENT FORUM.
As usual I won't hold any responsibility to any damages it may cause to your phone.
Thanks to Endless7 for research on this subject. Great work!
Thanks to dangpzanco and walter79 for support and ideas.
This is a simplified method of installing MIUI into Milestone2 devices. This ROM is based on Defy's WajkIUI 1.8.12 - MULTiLanguage. It's still a experimental port so not everything is working fine. With this package you DON'T need to flash any SBF into your phone.
Requirements:
- Froyo or GB rooted phone.
- CWM Recovery 3.0+. You can get it here.
Installation:
- Download update.zip to your sdcard.
- Boot into CWM Recovery
- Apply update.zip
- Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache/battery stats
- Reboot.
Notes:
- Update-scrip now backs up Swype during installation. If you are just updating your MIUI version you may not get Swype. In this case you must manually copy /system/app/Swype.apk and /system/lib/libSwypeCore.so. I won't include these files in my package as they're copyrighted and I don't have permission to distribute them.
Working:
1. Compass.
2. Sensors.
3. LED.
4. CWM Recovery
5. Device Keyboard
6. Keyboard Backlight
7. CPU Frequencies in Bootmenu
8. USB mounting
Not working:
1. Virtual keyboard half size (but now we have Swype)
2. ALT LOCK key from keyboard ( you can double press ALT instead of ALT LOCK )
3. Media HW play, only support .MP4 hardware decoding
4. Buggy message about moving data to sdcard in every boot.
FOR THE ONES HAVING PROBLEMS WITH GSM RADIO:
1. Search for Milestone2 baseband switcher app. If it doesn't work try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1182050
Changelog:
20-08-2011:
- Fixed MIUI Torch/Light sensor/Backlight bugs from 19-08-2011 update.
19-08-2011:
- Fixed camera screen upside down
- Fixed USB mounting
- Added Swype Backup&Restore during installation
18-08-2011:
- Fixed CPU Frequencies on Bootmenu
- Fixed keyboard backlight and light sensor
- New bootanimation
Please, report any problems you found so I and the other may try to fix it.
Thanks

Hey r2beta0
What is the difference b/w this and the one posted by Endless7?? The reason I'm asking is that I wasn't able to boot that one. I was not even able to get to stock recovery afterwards.

Probably because you didn't flash the fixed sbf correctly. My package is made from the same source as endless7, but I've included all images that needs flashing on the update.zip so you don't need to flash anything with rsd lite.

My MIUI uses baseband files from Brazil 2.2 SBF. You may try Milestone2 baseband switcher app.
No luck for me with the GSM signal. This is pretty strange. Because under system-> mobile network settings, it shows my operator correctly but still there is no signal.
Anything you can suggest??

I have tried that. I get the signal every now and then. But after a while it drops.
I have heard that there are different radios (for GSM) available for CM7. So could it be that I need to use some different radio (if such a thing exists for Defy CM7)??
I mean a friend having similar issues with CM7 on Galaxy S told me.
Hey I solved my problem myself. I replaced all files in etc/motorola/bp_nvm_default/ in the MIUI ROM with the ones from w0ndersp00n's Deblurred GB (since I had no signal issues with it) and changed permissions of all files to rw-r--r--, now it works perfectly. No signal drops.
Got the idea from Defy section. Following post.

Just update the fix for keyboard backlight. Maybe you should take a look
I have seen it and have changed the value of first two rows to 255. Its too bright right now to notice it. Will update, if it works.
does this also include the patch from the CM7/MIUI port thread? which includes alot of fixes?
so basically,once i flashyour update zip, are there any fixes or files to flash myself, and if so which ones? thanks!
