[Q] problem upgrading froyo cee to CM9 - General Questions and Answers

Hello!
I accidently installed a bad, un-downgradeable sbf.
I seeked for hours but eventually I got out of it, and now I'm running a working fixed froyo cee.
I was sure that after moving to the froyo, Ill be able to upgrade to the cyanogenmod 9.
but of course, when I tried, it acted like before, as if the froyo is un-changeable - it bloacked the defy.
so, what can I do in order to be able changing ROMs again?
I own a defy MB525.
Thanks very much!

[Q] Looking for answers to Gingerbread rom bricking

I have a thunderbolt currently running BAMF 1.6.3 Froyo with a Froyo baseband. I WAS running BAMF 2.0.5 (beta) with a Gingerbread radio I LOVED it and want to go back... I have looked, and looked and LOOKED for someone who has bricked their device after having it work for a week or so... I ran the BAMF 2.0.5 for about a week with no problems...
Please tell me if you were one of the affected (bricked) thunderbolt owners... what rom were you running? what baseband? where did you get your baseband? and what happened when your phone bricked? and what city and state were you in when it happened? please be as specific as possible...
If your Thunderbolt STILL WORKS, please, do not post here, I am looking for people who's phones were working with Gingerbread and suddenly stopped and boot-looped... Not booting into android, not random reboots, but wont even let you into the boot loader (Clockwork recovery or similar)...
If you got your phone working, I'm not looking to hear from you... if you broke your phone because you messed up the rooting process or flashing wrong, not interested in your story, sorry... I have successfully flashed and had working Thunderbolt with Gingerbread... I just want to know how likely will I be screwed if flashing back successfully... I have spare batteries if I have that non-charging-thunderbolt issue that some had, that I did NOT have...
Thank you for your time and support and all those with Team BAMF! - You guys ROCK

[Q] I own an original Korean Motoroi - what the hell can I do with it??

Hi all, long time lurker here.
At the title says, I own a Korean original Motoroi, here in Korea on SKT. The current ROM I'm running is STSKT_N_79.33.50R .
Like some others on this board have noted in the past, this phone, with it's slower CPU, is an under-powered P.o.S. When I first got this last year it had a 2.1(.1?) ROM on it and in December last year Motorola graciously decided to release 2.2 for it. Anyway, I'm sure most of you already know that.
Upgrading this thing to 2.2 was like my friend's iPhone 3G when he upgraded it to iOS4: it was a slow, buggy mess, randomly locking up, rebooting and "losing" images on the SD card after talking some photos ("Can not write to SDcard" errors.) - among other things. To make matters worse, there seemed to be a huge bug in the Korean/English soft-keyboard that meant the input application would often crash during text entry.
Then, a few days after Motorola Korea released the 2.2 upgrade with all the above problems, they then seemed to pull it and reverted back to the old 2.1 version on their website. A few weeks later, they released 2.2 again, perhaps with those bugs fixed.... but with the same version number, thus preventing the updater program from updating MY phone to whatever version they have on the site now. Grrrr!
Anyway, enough of that long story, here are my questions:
1. What can I do with this phone now? I see a lot of custom ROMs here for the XT720 Milestone, but I know that it's a slightly different phone to the Motoroi... also, I've been led to understand that the Motoroi has a locked bootloader... right?
2. If I can re-flash roms on this... what custom rom would be suitable? There's so many versions here on this board that it's a little confusing. Also, what would be the procedure(s) to install it?
3. If there's no suitable custom rom here for this... can/how I re-flash this thing back to the stock, original 2.1 SKT rom? At least that was slightly faster and more stable than the 2.2 rom...
Well, one thing I can't complain about this was the price: I paid only 20,000원 for this on a 1 year contract spending only about 15,000원 a mouth. SKT were practically giving them away: I can see why, now.
TIA.
hello newbie here.......
i have the same problem before when i upgraded my motoroi to 2.2.1 , but i just found out that you can still root,overclock and use custom kernel...
- use superoneclick to root
- to overclock i use milestone overclock 1.4.2 version and setCPU
- if you want to use custom kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=990735 and use raser_motoroi_boot.7z
- i also using this to replace bootanimation and fonts http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888379
- my motoroi xt720 is now overclock to 1100g with 74vsel so far so good.....
- you can also use MOTOMIZER [optional]

here you guys go this guy made ROMS for motoroi, im not sure how well these work as i have not tried them. he has posted a bunch of them. the are for motoroi so you must start with motoroi firmware. and i cannot read his homepape as its in korean. so check em out. http://code.google.com/p/xt720/downloads/list
i will try this and according to dev. "No Rooting ROM created by the state, and wrote more attention to the theme, need to maintain a more stable and allows fast was created." but your phone must have 44R nonSKAF original rom, in think that is 2.1 update!

frozenroi works great on my motoroi better than KyuHyuk ROM but the problem is there is no sound on video recording even I try to call my mobile using my landline phone I cannot hear my voice only annoying noise.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
_________________________________

Thanks for the infos... how can I install these roms? I'm a bit of a newbie at this..
Also, I'm running the stock SK 2.2 rom, do I have to downgrade to 2.1 to install these?
My phone is already rooted using Superoneclick.

Look in the Development section and you will see a thread for installing Tiamat 2.0 Manta Ray rom on non-US Xooms.
Cheers, done that already. Can 2.1.0 be I stalled over the top?

My Zoom is running with Tiamat 2.1.
For now without Problems.
Before you upgrade dont forget the backup, so you can came back if you dont like it.

Overcome 7 v4.0.0 Edition Gingerbread 2.3.3 ROM

Hi guys, I would like to share my experience on rooting and flashing the custom firmware on my P1000.
Initially, my P1000 was preloaded with froyo 2.2.
I flashed my P1000 to the gingerbread 2.3.3 and subsequently upgraded to v2.3.5.
The major difference between 2.3.3 & 2.3.5 is the lock in screen. 2.3.5 no longer have the fixed slider at the lockin screen, to unlock, just touch anywhere of the screen and you will see 2 circle lines, and then slide out of the 2nd circle will do.
A few days ago, I degraded my P1000 back to 2.3.3 and flashed with Overcome 7 v4.0.0 edition rom.
It is working extremely fine and fast, still monitoring it, but so far face no problem at all.
Thanks guys for the overcome 7 rom. Fantastic.
I am looking ahead at Honeycomb custom rom for P1000.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
OVERCOME 4.0 is great. But I think CM7 or MIUI are also fast and fine, with more freedom. You should lookong ahead at ICS, personally I think the Honeycomb custom rom is meaningless now.
Reports are allways good.....
But you have used the wrong thread group. Please use this thread and report it there.
Because this thread group is only for apps and themes, NOT for roms. Thank you
