maybe you need to change extension of img to sbf. or try flashing img file. if it is not supported you should get an error.

yup...2ndinit installed successfully........whatever button i press...i get the same screen.

you got to press both vol+ and vol- button.
you will get the normal recovery mode (display) only in froyo (2.2)..
..
so logo you got is not a problem. :)

You using Defy ? I thought you had optimus one? How good is the phone for basic needs plus some advance roms flashing like MIUI and CM7 ? All stable or still few bugs ?

Thanks!
 
I guess, Sam using optimus one :p
using cm7 runs smoothly, few bugs are there, but that's cm7 prob

And MIUI? I actually bought this phone but gifted to my cousin. Now, he upgraded to Gals+ and this is coming back.

I am yet to decide to keep it or sell it. Only depends on you guys answer about roms. So cm7 works fine, MIUI? :)

I dont need it for games apps etc, just to flash and test roms. :p This is what I miss after using iPhone4. :(

MiUI works super fine. And now CM7.1 also supports Defy officially. So, its no longer a port, it comes directly from the Cynogen ppl. If there are any bugs, they will be squatted soon enough.

@AhamBrahmasmi - MIUI english roms can be installed through recovery. you dont need rsd lite to install them. they are in .zip files. Very easy to instal them through Clockwork Recovery.
PS: Do have 2nd init created first.

sorry i misread it in a hurry. its only ics framework. but when google releases source code of ics we will defenetly get ics either from cynogen or miui.
you can follow the guide in xda defy forum on how to install custom roms.

I just got my defy yesterday. had ordered from letsbuy for 13800 (after 1000 off coupon)

The box seems old and kinda dirty. I checked for warranty at motorola's website and it says its valid till 23rd June 2012. Shouldn't it be for a year from today? Can any1 else check their warranty please? here's the link : *www.motorola.com/Support/IN-EN/Consumer-Support/Mobile-Phones/DEFY_without_blur_IN-EN

I've mailed them with photo proof. Lets see what happens. Kinda bummed :/

Well we don't even know if the site is giving wrong info or not. No reply from letsbuy yet. I'll call them up if they don't reply soon, though i don't expect much from them
