Access Motorola Software Update

I was wondering if there is a way to access the file that the update downloaded via the Motorola Software Update application.
Is it possible that I can store the downloaded sbf file? I just came to know that Defy has a 2.51 france sbf (maybe I didnt know it and it exists in this forum).
Can someone please help me on this?.
Cheers!
PS: Apparently all the previous 2.21 versions from France, Germany have also got the 2.51.1 update. It would be good to capture this file in the software for any warranty problems if we need to flash back to the original updated firmware. The problem of downgradability is also solved because all phones now officially run 2.51.1 which can be flashed back from any froyo firmwares.

OK. Guess no one wants to help or knows nothing about this.
I managed to find the downloaded sbf without updating my device.
I disconnected from the software update as soon as the file was downloaded and here it is
http://www.mediafire.com/?o4dckhi8bykidwm
JRDNEM_U3_2.51.1_BLUR_P3_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA030.0R_USAJORDANRTFR_P043_A010_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf
This is the 2.51 France version of Eclair. Since Defy came out of box for all those in europe with 2.21 france and they would be scared to lose their downgradability this solves the problem. Because Moto officially released this and the german version of 2.51 eclair now we can easily move to any froyo roms and come back to this in case there is a need to give it to service centre or claim warranty.
Download this and keep it safe. If nothing works and you are stuck while flashing other froyo sbfs then this sbf should get you at least to boot in eclair.

I hope not to use this sbf, since my Defy is currently out for the earpiece problem, but you never know. So I'll keep it, just in case something goes wrong.

Thanks You wouldn't happen to be able to download the german version and upload it later on? It would be good to know to have the official update as a backup...

Which rom are you using now?.

So did I, im guessing u bought sim free defy like me, so no OTA updates for u
u can do 2.21->2.51 update over pc (motorola update program)
thats how I updated it yesterday

Yes, i have a sim free. No OTA update (frozen eclair mod can be the cause?).
As soon as i have a windows pc available (i'm running linux on all my home computers) i'll try to update.
Thanks,

I'm actually running on 2.51.1.MB525.Retail.en.DE. (the german release of the ROM -> pre-installed on my Defy) Thanks to the apps and tweaks I installed, it is not a good base for a stocklike Backup
So, if I would have to send it in, a clean ROM would be nice.

nah, that aint the cause ..I had original 2.21 FR rom and it didnt find any updates on the phone ...I think if u buy sim free u dont get any OTA updates
I think im gonna flash to the new fin froyo deblured version soon, I really hate this blur stuff

For going back from Froyo, to Original Ecalir, you will need a boot rom too? If yes, maybe someone can upload a version of boot rom that is working with this original Eclair.

For all those asking about upgrading to 2.51.1 from 2.21. The OTA update is not possible because motorola is not known to sending most of its updates this way. Only if there is a froyo firmware, will it give it through OTA.
So all you have to do is download the motorola software updater from the site and just follow whatever it says. Its as simple as that.
If you dont want to install the firmware but just download it and keep it for further use like me, just in case you brick your device or if there is a warranty issue, then connect your phone as per instructions>the software will detect your phone and start downloading the 2.51 sbf file>go to C:\program files\motorola\software update\firmwares and then wait till the sbf is downloaded.
Once downloading is complete it will ask you if you are ready for update. Just click CANCEL. The update will not be pushed to your phone. Now go to the Firmwares folder I just showed and copy the sbf file. None of you should be worried about warranty because it is a company upgrade and this has nothing to do with voiding a warranty until you do not tamper your software or hardware.
This can be done for any software upgrades. Its safest and best way to get your hands on a company sbf file.

Before flashing i must do something like data wipe?
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App

Yes full wipe and then flash the sbf. Be sure though that you don't try to downgrade from 2.51 because then you brick your phone. And just search for more information. It's all on xda already!

Wow, could you provide some info on that (Distro, Wine version etc). I tried to get it running on Ubuntu Lucid but had no success.

Hi All,
I was wondering if there was anyone who upgraded to this 2.51 france. I forgot to make a nandroid and accidently flashed froyo poland version. Now i cannot downgrade to 2.51.
Fortunately I got the bootloader version for 2.51 but i need a nandroid backup of the rom.
Can someone please post a nandroid backup of this. Its not a hurry but if anyone can do it I will be grateful.
Thanks in advance.

Hi, all. China has released the latest offical 2.2 update

By now, the latest kernel edition is: 2.6.32.9-g82fb087. To update to chinese offical release edition (this rom include 2 Languages: English and Chinese and does not has google service, that means you need to install it yourself), you need to: 1. flash chinese offical xt702 sgc1260/2040/3040 sbf image. The link of SGC3040.sbf is http://file.geeka.net/system/20107131112.rar 2. download offical update.zip. The link is http://www.motorola.com/Consumers/CN-ZH/_IndependentPages/XT702
method:
reboot the mobilephone, use rsd lite to flash the sbf, then put the update.zip to the root of sdcard. Then press x or camera button to the recovery mode. Select apply update. Waiting. Then select reboot. Now you have offical 2.2!!
Now I supply a nandroid recovery file. You just need to use nandroid -> restore then select this document. Your kernel will be the latest
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
After two days test, I'm sure this is still a test edition, not final edition, it is still has DSI problem, in other words, it is still not stable. Also, China has canceled the update link.

Downloading!!!!

But this page doesnt show anything , its still the same which says pending for Q1 2011?

That is the model number of Milestone in China.

Funny coincidence, though...
Congrats, please give feedback if the known bugs were fixed properly!!!

This looks like an incremental update for most of the system. The real important part for me is the boot.img, the other can be optional.
Question: Can i flash a SBF for XT702 on my Milestone without harm?

Seems real official release... screenshot available in gfan (sorry I can't post link yet)

maybe this is logical,
but as Sileshn said 702 is not the same as Milestone!

AFAIK, XT702/A853 share the same hardware and ROM
XT702 is just a brand name of A853 in China without Google Apps

No, my mobilephone is milestone but not xt702, and I flash SGC3040.sbf successfully. The only different is one key: XT702 has a chinese/english swift key instead of the select key on the keyboard. There is no other different. So, milestone also can flash SGC3040.sbf and then update to 2.2.1

For those interested,
The base 2.1 sbf can be found here
http://and-developers.com/sbf:milestone

Sileshn is right! !!!
A853 Milestone is different from xt702
Also you can say : Milestone and Droid are the same ; Droid is the American version of the Milestone or the other way around; but it is not!!!

Anyone that has flashed and updated to this ROM can confirm if there is a new camera APK ? or it still the old Motorola Camera? THey are supposed to have complete remaked it.

[ROM] Official Froyo 2.2.1 - Retail Brasil - Rooted & Overclocked Nandroid available
Official Froyo 2.2.1 Update for Milestone - Retail Brazil​You need to flash the stock 2.1 ROM and use Motorola Software Update to get your phone updated to Froyo ( 2.2.1 ). If you are already running 2.1, just use MSU to update and retain your apps. If you are running a custom rom and want to get back to stock, please look at this thread for more information.
Official 2.1 Retail Brazil sbf's can be downloaded from the links below.

You can update your phone after flashing the 2.1 sbf file by downloading the MSU. You can use this link to download the Motorola Software Updater.
Vulnerable recovery sbf and kernel from this ROM as a flashable zip file are attached. Nandroid back of this ROM, rooted and overclocked can be found here.
Many thanks to Sileshn and rasstaylor for their help. Credits to blogdoandroid.com for the information.
The wait is over. The moment that many were waiting, arrived. Motorola has finally released an Android 2.2 Froyo for Milestone, fulfilling his promise. Were 8 months of delay over the Droid, the American model of Milestone, but who was counting right? We were.
The wait continues for those who bought with operator (TIM, VIVO, CLARO, OI)
We were surprised with some cosmetic changes, you can check out the following photos below. The lock screen, Screen Lock, was redesigned, becoming different from the original Froyo Google as well as the Launcher (the screen that shows icons for apps. She was like the Eclair (Android 2.1). It is speculated that this was done to improve performance.
In addition to traditional apps already installed on the Milestone, a Facebook app was included. Motorola has certainly gained a quick buck to get it.
Another interesting accretion was a mini app to access the chip carrier, in my case of HI. Previously there was only app SIM Tool Kit, which has now been renamed to World HI. Besides this, has added another app, which is nothing more than two links to web pages of the operator, plus a link to the SIM Tool Kit SIM Tool Kit, or STK is very important for users of the HI, because allows us to check the credit balance.

by the way, it doesnt have the spanish lang.

Any way to get just the modem and that doesn't require flashing the whole rom?

yes, you can flash only the modem.. just find my other post in this section.. there i put the modem.bin for flashing with odin.
and for portuguese, flash any rom with that lang and then flash the modem.bin on the phone section of odin . that will do the job.
good luck

So, is it possible to flash using only this file? Or do I need all the PIT, BOOTLOADER, PDA, PHONE and CSC files?
And, sorry again, but this file goes to PHONE, right?

2. Do I need to root my device before flashing ICS leak? Because I am using Asia version, so I need to flash AT&T 2.3.5 and then update it to 2.3.6 via OTA. As I know, I will lose the root after OTA update
I could not found some information about that in above link(link on question 1)
