Extract these zipped files and then flash with RSDlite,

---For RSD you first need to open your defy into bootloader, and for that while starting press Power+VOL UP.

---RUN RSDLite your device will be listed there, Browse for sbf and hit start.

---Flash Both the files and be the owner of rooted defy plus :D

Grab RSDlite from here :-- ~~~~~RSD Link 1~~~~~~

After Flashing,the first thing you should do is install 2nd init and get a custom recovery.

===>You just need to install a apk file and Bamm!! you got custom recovery.

If you got problems with your baseband (like getting Signal frequency NIL or very Low) use BASEBAND SWITCHER
