[Defy General] WIIstpM:
are you trying to update to 2.2??

If so, you have to download RSD Lite (latest version) and go to bootloader, the one with power + vol. up

Then download a fixed sbf of 2.2 (search on xda itself)

Open RSD Lite and it will detect your phoen.

Then choose the downloaded sbf and let it complete

VOILA! You're updated!
[Defy General] WIIstpM:
RSD Lite is not difficult at all!

But btw, you can update directly from your phone!

Seetings-> About Phone-> System Updates.
[Defy General] MazaMoto:
Well, That's some trouble after the long wait.

I think prior to froyo update you will have to update the software to version 34.4.9 first, as a prerequisite for Froyo.

Please visit TMobile official link for detailed steps:

In short:

Software Upgrade for Motorola DEFY™ (34.4.9)

Introduction

This is a software upgrade for T-Mobile USA Motorola DEFY users who are currently using Android™ 2.1 (Eclair) software versions. The 34.4.9 upgrade for Motorola DEFY provides new features from Android 2.2 (Froyo) plus additional improvements.

[Defy General] Telyx:
34.4.9 IS the Froyo update. You have to have the 2.1-update1 update installed, though, and you need to make sure you still have all the Blur apps/bloatware intact.
[Defy General] morr22066:
Thanks for the help

My problem is solved, hopefully this thread will help anyone else that had a similar problem.
[Defy General] thisbeice:
THANK YOU!!!! you my friend are a life saver! thanks a million!
[Defy General] morr22066:
No problem, glad I could help.
[Defy General] Nerd Rage LBC:
It works!

Thank you very much for taking your time in putting the puzzle pieces together. I removed the blockbuster app because it seemed to always run and when this time came I forgot where I put the backup and even then it kept giving me Status 7.

So this way is quite smooth, direct instructions with working links.

Only 2 things...

More detail on how/where to wipe on step 3 I assumed it was under privacy>Factory Data Reset is what you mean... I hope. (works for me)

Emphasize on "RESET AFTER ROOT" lmao I always forget to do that.

Perfect, thanks again.
[Defy General] morr22066:
You're right, I should have said clearly to do another reset after rooting. I have updated it. Thanks.

And thank you again to all those who contribute to the forum and provide clear easy to understand walk through instructions for those of us who do not do this often.

It's rare that I do something like this so after spending most of my weekend looking for all of the instructions and links I wanted to try and spell it out for anyone else who was having the same problem.

Good luck to everyone and of course "any modifications could void your warranty and brick your phone, you do so at your own risk".
[Defy General] chrisscass:
"7) After installing the update, I did a factory reset and I rooted with SuperOneClick and restored from Titanium backup"

Does this mean that after wiping the phone (with 2.1), then upgrading to 2.2, then factory reset, then Titanium backup will restore programs from when 2.1 was installed?

I thought you can't restore backups from Titanium Backup on different Android versions (e.g. backups taken while on Android 2.1 cannot be restored once 2.2 is installed).

I ask because I am hesistent to upgrade to 2.2 (where mine requires a phone reset due to rooting, etc) until I can extract some items from the phone (e.g. Yahoo Instant Messenger chats) because I thought I would lose all of those things.

Thank you.
[Defy General] felipegeek:
morr22066,

I also had rooted the 2.1-update1 OS and removed the Blockbuster app and the music marketing apps which subsequently caused my 2.2 install to fail. Your guide saved my bacon and helped me get the Froyo upgrade installed without further incident. What an upgrade too! Responsiveness is definitely better, especially voice dialing. It used to take up to 30 seconds for it to load and respond to the click of my BT headset now it's 1-3 seconds max. Lots of small UI refinements and improvements too.

Thank you very much for making it easy to do at 4am and half-awake.

-felipe
[Defy General] Nerd Rage LBC:
Oh by the way after doing this you might want to look into my last post "google maps freeze the phone" after getting updated for those of you following this fyi.

So when do I flash this? JORDN_U3_6.36.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNTMOB1B4B5DE1028.0R_ JORDANTMO_P022_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf

You say to download this and unzip it. Latter you said to download T-Mobile Foroy bootonly and install it via RSD Lite I'm guessing. Should I flash

JORDN_U3_6.36.0_SIGNED_USAJRDNTMOB1B4B5DE1028.0R_ JORDANTMO_P022_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf

first then wipe my device then flash froyo bootonly?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chieftaco:
I'm running BAMF 1.5 Remix, and I'm looking for a feature that seems to be removed.. Was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.

So on the stock rom from verizon, they had an annoying virtual cdrom.iso file in /system/etc/ that would autorun when you plugged the phone into the PC..

A lot of people deleted the cdrom.iso, and ended up with just a virtual cdrom that would not autorun when they plugged in their phone.

I'm a system engineer, and I found it very handy to copy another iso to /sdcard/isos/xxx and then a quick

"ln -s /system/etc/cdrom.iso /sdcard/isos/whatever.iso"

would give me an instant portable PE and utilities.

Has this been removed from the kernel or the rom build? How would I get it back?

Any pointers in the right direction would be amazing..

Thanks,

-chieftaco.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanm07:
Ok i've searched and tried everything I could find, but the top 2/3 of my screen is still awful meanwhile the bottom is perfect. It takes way too much pressure to press any buttons, if it works at all. I've tried to put an empty file "calibration.ini" on my removable SD card, and i've also tried the recalibration app, neither worked. I just bought this within the past week and I have 30 days to return it. I'm running the Vegan gingerbread Rom which seems to run awesome, my only complaint is the screen. Has anyone else gone through this? I feel like my unit is defective, but everyone else who i've found with this issue was able to fix it. I want to be sure it is defective before I return it to stock and return/exchange it. Thanks!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Did you have any issues on stock rom?

Did you ever flash a froyo rom before VGB?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanm07:
I did not keep the stock rom on for very long at all, but I did have issues hitting certain buttons on it.

No on froyo, I went straight to VGB.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Flash clem/calkulins rom or vegan b5.1.1 and see if it resets it. If you know its borked on a solid froyo rom then flash back to stock and return it.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanm07:
Awesome, thanks for your help! I'll flash it tomorrow after work and take it from there.
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Any time :-) if you haven't tried either rom they are both worth your time. I like VGB a ton but I watch a lot of video so I stayed with a froyo rom because there still isn't hardware support from drivers for GB.

Hope its just a bad flash and its not a problem with your tab. Good luck!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryanm07:
It was a defective unit. I tried Vegan 5.1 as well as the stock rom again and neither fixed my issue. I brought it back to sears and had them replace it and now it is working perfectly. I'm so happy I brought it back, I can see now that my old was was definitely defective. Thanks again for your help!
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mantara:
Awesome! Glad you got it sorted. The instant replacement factor is why I will always pay a little more to get it from a store as apposed to online.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] monky91:
I searched over my microSD, and what I found is, in the folder "others" there is a bada application folder, they consist most of the bada app source if I am not mistaken.

So I was wondering, is there a way to change the name of installed apps, for some apps the name is too long and it is not very nice either.

2ndly, can I backup all the files in it. For example asphalt so that the save game is backup?

3rdly, if, just if I flash the whole phone, then I copy the bada apps folder back, will my game show up? Thanks
[Bada Software and Hacking General] xator91:
1. You can change the name of app :) example: sy7343nds -> Data -> Application.xml (Open with notepad or wordpad) here you can find the name of the Application.

2. I'm honestly do not know but I think yes

3. No
[Bada Software and Hacking General] monky91:
Thanks for the quick reply. So, I was wondering, for no3, all I can do is try to download back whatever I can install. Then replace the new folder with old one? As I figure out the folder no are the same for particular apps.

[edit] just tried out no.1, but I can't find any application.xml
[Bada Software and Hacking General] guari:
Yes you can, go to xxxxxxxxxx/Info/application.xml where 'xxxxxxxxx' is the code of the app folder and simply change:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>

<Application>

<Entry>NotImportant</Entry>

<Name>

<English>ChangeThis</English>

</Name>

...

than disconnect, change phone language with what you want and then rechange it restoring your previous one.

Yes you can do it, search in xxxxxxxxxx/Data/ folder, you should find some saves file, the name and the extension depends on the application.

No, info about installed applications are stored in a registry into os partition.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] baza14:
You can change name of installed applications and games on SD card with new spoofer...

If I try to use it:

You can change the name of app example: sy7343nds -> Data -> Application.xml (Open with notepad or wordpad) here you can find the name of the Application.

I see only the original name of this applz, but i want change the name on the Bada Menù...

Ex: i have the NDrive icon with write TripTracker

[Bada Software and Hacking General] DeviousFusion:
So if i backup the registry folder using stune or some other s/w, will I be able to restore the apps if I restore the registry folder after a flash..?

Thanks
[Bada Software and Hacking General] guari:
don't know, you should try, problems are:

- where and what is the registry file in question, it is possible that this file is not on the partition visible by stune-tkfileexplorer;

- this registry is probably signed or encrypted;

restoring all the registry folder after a flash could generate many errors of inconsistency and/or could be useless...

Has anyone else run into this issue? Once in a while when I wake my phone, my homescreen appears for like half a second and then it will go to the lockscreen. It doesn't do this all the time but certainly more than half. It also happens using either stock or adw ex launcher. Can't think of why it would be doing this. Anyone got a fix or a reason as to why its even doing this?

yeah it does it here too but not quite sure why it bothers anyone it goes to lock screen faster than i can react after waking anyways. probably just a quicker freeze oif state when it goes to sleep than it should and doesnt have time to cahnge it over.

[Epic 4G General] spenceizzle:
So I've had my epic since it came out, traded my evo for it, no problems rooting, loved the community. But now I've ran into a problem that all my technical experience as a Sprint tech has failed to fix.

Starting last night, after watching "Hobo with a Shotgun" (amazing grindhouse style movie, get it), every time I put the phone to sleep for more then 2-3 minutes, it will not wake or ring or anything until you pull the battery. I was on SFR, tried flashing a new kernel, re flashing the rom, flashing a new rom, odin back to stock, same issue every time.

So unless someone knows something I don't, gotta wait until monday to get a refurbished unit.

Sad, this is the first time I've had to get a replacement since my HTC Apache.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
The problem is probably that the phone can't wake uo on 100mhz. If you are on a custom kernel you it to 200 MHz as the minimum. My phone will do the same thing if I have the minimum set to 100

[Epic 4G General] tenaciousj:
Try this. Seems to be working for me so far.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1036648

I use to have to set mine at 400mhz to make sure it would wake back up. Since doing this I dropped it back to 200mhz and haven't had any issues yet.
[Epic 4G General] spenceizzle:
Hurpa Durp, never thought of that... had the same issue on my Hero for awhile, setting it on 200mhz min worked like a charm.

While were on the subject, I have a few interesting thoughts. Since this has never happened before, is my Epic's underclock/overclock threshold degrading? Didn't know that could happen, I though it was predetermined by the quality of the die the CPU was cut from when it was manufactured. Maybe overclocking to 1300 with higher then normal voltage is having some repercussions? Thoughts?
[Epic 4G General] burgerpimp07:
Not suggesting you do this...but you could always brick your phone and then take it into a sprint store for a replacement phone haha

How does this make sense, as the question was more, what can I do to stop from having to get a replacement????????

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] shujabutt:
i have got HTC HD2 with android v 2.2.1.. every time i transfer a file on the SD card via usb, the phone does not recognize the file. i tried doing the same in windows 6.5 and it works.

Secondly, every time my phone restarts, it boots windows 6.5 whereas i have android installed. how do i fix these issues???
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] T-Macgnolia:
It sounds like you are using a Service card Android build. When you reboot your HD2 from a SD card build it is suppose to boot back into Windows Mobile cause that is what is in the actual internal memory of the phone, which the internal memory is what the SOL of the bootloader is programmed to boot up. To have Android boot up from SD card on it's own house need to install a dual boot app, just Google "Dual Boot Apple for Windows Mobile" or go the the HD2 Windows Mobile themes and apparently forum and do a search there.

If I am not mistaken to have been your SD card work properly as a mass storage device when connected to a computer you have to have USB. Debugging on. To do this while in Android go to Settings>Applications>Development and check USB Debugging.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Dr.Move:
If you're using an SD build it's known that SD builds restart to WinMo, you shouldv'e read it somewhere by now.

Files transfered to the Card on android are not recognised unless you restart the phone or transfer them when you're on WinMo, also transferring the files to an SD android version using diskdrive mode means you're risking braking the build or corrupting your SD card, it can be fixed with either scanning your card for system file errors or formatting it in worst case scenario..

anyway, the safest way to transfer files to SD while plugging your SD android over the USB is by using the Dual Mount SD app, the speed is a bit decreased, but the device will recognize them when you unplug it.
