If the kernel and the ROM support A2SD the only command you should need after partitioning the SD card is a2sd reinstall which will move the apps to the SD card intermediately and then reboot the device. The commands can be entered via terminal emulator right on the phone (remember to su first) OR using a computer and using adb shell.

I was pretty surprised to find a FOTA update waiting for my brand new Motorola Defy+ (Asia) when I logged on to Wifi after work. However after download, it invariably fails to install with a very simple error message of install failed !

FOTA details

-------------

Version : 45.0.1321.en.03

Changelog : http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles...cuments/Staticfiles/RN_DEFY-PLUS_Asia_MEA.htm

Phone Details

--------------

System Version : 45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03

Baseband Version : EPU93_U_00.60.00

Android Version : 2.3.4

However when I browse to the /cache folder (where the FOTA files are downloaded I see these 2 files : Blur_Version.45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03.crc and Blur_Version.45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03.zip

Can anybody please throw some light on what the hell is going on ? Did Motorola goof up and push 45.0.891.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03 (already installed on the phone) as the update instead of 45.0.1321.MB526.AsiaRetail.en.03 (As displayed on the update popup) ?

Note however once you flash you'll loose root. SuperOneClick and Droid3Root does not work. Only way to get root is to use DooMLoRD's script. Refer to my post on how to root the Defy+ 2.3.6 in this forum.

German update, same problem

I bought my defy+ as soon as it was available in Holland, apparently the phone is really the German release.

Today the update suddenly popped up on my phone, same problem the update failed !

When my phone arrived i deblurred it by editing build.props then hard reset, then i rooted it using the trick "from the german forum" so maybe this is why it failed to update ?

Update your Defy Plus using your PC.

It is very easy to update your Defy plus and RSDlite is not required for updating the handset.

1) Just go to motorola India website and select defy plus then click Owner Support button.

2) On owner's support page you will have to click Update my software link.

3) Select defy plus from drop down menu.

4) on that page click "I have read Step 3 about third-party media."

5) and click download update.

6) Install the update software and after its installation connect your defy plus to your PC with USB cable.

7) The "Motorola update manager" software automatically detects your defy plus and install some drivers. it will take upto 5 to 10 minutes.

8) after that select update my phone software and your phone will get the latest update available.

You cut USB cable, any type, unisolate red and black wires and put red to + and black to - in battery, wait about a minute holding it like this and check, if fails, repeat this cycle until you get battery working.

You can also check battery voltage with voltagemeter, 4.20 is 100%, 3.7 is about 60% and 3.0 is critical state assuming you damaged your cells.

Any overcharging or undercharging (more than 4.20 or less than 3.0) would make your battery funking explode...

If i use option TG01 C . when you open the .bin ,the error appears, you ignore it and if i press dowload, the process goes normally. :)

I put the post just in case other people had the same behavior, couse they wont be able to go further (it was my case). They need to use just TG01C option:D

Tg Downloader Problems

Hi,

I have a problemm with the TG Downloader; I nstalled the drivers as you mentioned in the step by step tutorial. But when I try to download the w7boot.bin into my phone, gives me error. I can' t select the port , the toshiba port doesn' t appear. I discovered that in my pc it' s missing the Toshiba DL and I don' t understand why. Can be this the reason ?? and if so where can I download the Toshiba Dl ??? But I don' t understand really why this file is missing if i installed the tg downloader and also the usb dirvers as described in the tutorial. I have a windows 7, do you think that I have to use a XP to flash the rom??

TG Downloader - [SOLVED] Cannot open port

This might help the persons who were unable to install the WP7 bootloader through TG Downloader.

I managed to make this work only once, because I only installed the bootloader once. It might be a solution. I may try to reproduce this method later.

STEPS:

1. If you're already on a WindowsXP system skip to step 4. If you're using Windows 7 go to the following step.

2. If you're on a genuine Win7 follow the steps here http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx and go to step 3. If not, follow this tutorial: (steps are according to the official Microsoft's tutorial on their WinXPMode page):

- Be sure to have Windows 7 SP1 (that's version 7601)

- Go to http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Microsoft-Virtual-PC-Download-8335.html and download XP Mode and the x64 or x86 file depending on your system (this is Virtual PC).NOT the SP1 files.

- Install XP Mode ('WindowsXPMode_N_en-us')

- Install Virtual PC ('Windows6.1-KB95...')

3. Go to START -> All Programs -> Windows Virtual PC -> Windows XP Mode OR if you already have the Windows Virtual PC icon in the start menu click on it's right arrow and select Windows XP Mode.

- In WinXPMode first start, you will have to set some options

EVERYTHING DOWN HERE ↓ WILL BE UNDER WINDOWS XP

- Install TG Downloader and 32bit driver

- Make sure to have the phone's battery fully charged.

- Launch TG Downloader and select all the three blocks.

- Press and hold the Camera and Power button. get the white LED and plug your phone in thePC, via USB.

- On the Windows XP Mode window go on top, press USB, and select the ''TG Download - Attach' <- not sure if this is the name :D.

- Go to step 5

4. Install TG Downloader and the 32bit driver, if these are not already installed. Be sure your phone's battery's fully charged. Launch TG Downloader and select all three blocks (on TG Downloader first start). Press and hold the Camera and Power button, on your phone, get the white led, and plug it in the PC, via USB.

5. Now the driver may have not installed correctly. If it have installed right, go to step 7.

6. Go to START -> right click on My Computer -> Properties -> Hardware Tab -> Device Manager. Go to your device icon (it should have a yellow attention sign). Right click > 'Properties' > 'Driver Tab' > 'Update Driver' > 'No, not this time' > 'Install from a list or specific location' > 'Don't search...' > Search for Toshiba DwonloadMode driver or something like that and use it.

7. Be sure the wp7boot.bin is selected in TG Downloader. On top, go to Port and select the Toshiba DownloadMode.

8. Hit 'Download' and if an error appears click Okay, then again hit 'Download' and so on, if it continues to get errors. It worked on me. Don't know why...but it worked.

[TG01 Windows Phone 7 Development] clmnw:
for all those guys stuck at the Running ram step, under a XP (or XP mode under Win7), it was the same for me and the problem went away only when I installed the acer 64 bit Win7 drivers under the native Win7 (64 bit). Presumably if you're on the step with flashing in Common downloader, you've done the Wp7 bootloader step already.

So just install the Acer USB drivers in Win7, shut down any VMware/VPC/XP mode and just connect under Win7. You would now notice that there is progress with the flashing. Good luck. Hope it works for you as well.

if you have complete flash to wp7 then bettery empty, let's it conect to charge. after few time reboot, i will boot to wp7

[TG01 Windows Phone 7 Development] goqsane:
Hello everybody.

Unfortunately I find the instructions here very unclear.

You're referring to things that do not exist in the files you're linking us to. Could anyone write a guide how to flush a ROM for COMPLETE newbies? Mind you, I've had years of experience with Linux, FreeBSD, etc, but am just not getting it in this case. Might have to do with the language.

Things I've done:

Downloaded FLASH_TOOLS and the ROM file.

Things I'm struggling to understand:

Where do I get the 6.5 ROM file from then? Also, there is no tg_ssdl.exe and tg_ssdl+.exe files. There is only fxdjtg01_sddl+.exe found in FLASH TOOLS.

Also, what does it mean to copy those files to the PRG folder? I do not have any knowledge about it.

3. Press on tg_ssdl+? What do you even mean by that? I suppose you mean to run it? If so, where from? Should I run it from the device or not?

4. ??? I thought I already was supposed to COPY it...?

Which file is it?

Really, I'd appreciate it a million if somebody wrote this guide in an intelligible way...

Many thanks and hope to see you soon.
[TG01 Windows Phone 7 Development] Ccuong_:
-there's many hyperlink on the guide. you can click and download thing you need there

eg:http://www.4shared.com/zip/MOvoBKH2/upgrade_wp7_bootloader.html to download a rom with 0321 radio

-tg_ssdl.exe and tg_ssdl+.exe files you can download here

www.telefonica.net/web2/trisc/download/SDDL.rar(this link is right in this topic)

you copy a WM6.5 rom with 0321 radio to phone memory card, in a folder name PRG

disconnect your phone from usb, go to a file explorer app on phone and run tg_ssdl+.exe. it's will flash the rom you have copy in prg folder then your phone's radio will be 0321
