Updated to ICS

Thank you all Tech Gurus!

I rooted my defy XT535 three months back, but didn't updated to ICS. It was working well. Since last two days, my defy xt was unable to register with 2G network. I might have removed some components as I was playing a lot with link2sd by converting updates to system apps. Last night, with the help of your valuable suggestions, I embarked on Chinese ICS. Now network glitch has gone. :cowboy: I am pleased with the look and performances. Also noticing the some improvements in camera though not up to the mark, but yes better than earlier.

Once again thanks a lot !!! It was never possible without your help..!!:victory:

SUT LR doesnot detect my device

Hi mike8333,

I tried all the steps but all in vain SUT LR doesn't detect my device at all....... :(

I have installed all the drivers (ADB, USB etc)....no luck.

I am struck on the step of updating the .xml files..... but dunno it doen't detect my device.

I can flash the Chinese ICS .sbf file successfully..... but no luck with SUT LR :(

I have windows 7 64 bit.

Can you please help to resolve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

i had a problem with my defy and i solved it by flashing with TBP-1540-0-4017-A03_sec_moto_RFM file. thanks again.
[Defy General] neokragu:
You don't need Chinese ICS if you haven't defy xt 535
[Defy General] ondalin:
in settings - about phone, model number or something is says xt535.

so, the point is: i can flash it with this new ics or upgrade it and how do i do either of them?

thanks again.
[Defy General] ondalin:
hey guys. i installed this TBPI-228E-0-7009-A04_Signed and i really don't like it because all apps are in chinese or something like that. isn't there an updates version for this TBP-1540-0-4017-A03_sec_moto_RFM ? thanks.
[Defy General] neokragu:
go to settings and change the language to English
[Defy General] ondalin:
i know that, i did it. is there another update for the software version TBP-1540-0-4017-A03_sec_moto_RFM? thanks.
[Defy General] neokragu:
4.0.4 ICS is the latest version for defy xt
[Defy General] ondalin:
hello again. after i played a little with this ics chinese, i wanted to go back to my version, but after the flashing process terminates, the phone restarts in boot mode saying something like "mbm flash mode. tinboost+ you have entered flash mode because something went wrong. write down the error code for the service provider. error code is 0201"

now, i tried to flash it with this file TBP-1540-0-4017-A03_sec_moto_RFM that i know always worked, but know nothing changes.

any ideas?
[Defy General] neokragu:
What is your version? Are you want to use ICS or GB?
[Defy General] ondalin:
i don't understand your question.

[Defy General] ondalin:
so, i have to flash it again with the chinese ics?

is the rsd report of any use?

btw, the gb link, from the first post, is broken.

and if i want to return to my old version, what does it take? thanks again.

How to unbrick Motorola Defy XT535

Hello android geeks,

Please help me

Scenario

1. i was using chinese ics rom in my defy xt535. due to more problems with that rom, i flashed with Gingerbread rom. But i forge to wipe partition data before flashing . so i was unable to pass beyond red m logo

2. when i tried to enter recovery menu. i got a blank screen with green android with yellow exclamation mark within white triangle

3. again i flashed with chinese ics , again without clearing partition data (because i am not able to access recovery mode). now i am able to enter android , But touch screen is not working

What I have tried

1. I tried erasing phone data using Wondershare mobile transfer, but i failed as it is possible only if I enable USB debugging. sadly i cannot enable usb debugging as my touch screen is not working

Advantages

1. I can access bootloader (white screen) by pressing power button and up button

2. I can able to pass beyond moto logo, which is a good sign that the phone can be saved

Disadvantages

1. Unable to enter recovery mode (Yellow exclamation mark)

2. Touch screen is NOT working, so not able to enable usb debugging

Doubts

1. How to check whether my touch screen problem is software oriented or hardware oriented?

2. What is the method to completely erase phone data without entering recovery mode, no root, and without touch screen functionality?

3. Is there any way to install recovery menu without root function and without touch screen function?

4. My idea is to completely erase all the phone data and flashing it with gingerbread rom? Is it right or is there any other alternatives?

Things I have

1. Bricked Defy XT535

2. Laptop and PC with windows 7

3. USB cable

4. RSD Lite

5. SUTLR

6. Patch files to root Defy XT535

7. Chinese ICS ROM

8. Gingerbread ROM

9. Wondershare Mobile transfer

If you feel i have missed few details, please notify me

I am one among the few indian XT535ians, please help me to save the rugged device

thank you

Need help, bricked my phone...

Hey everyone, need some help. I read through the whole thread and finally felt comfortable enough to attempt flashing and rooting my XT556.

I downloaded everything I needed and had everything set on my computer ready to ditch the lame GB and get ICS.

Here are the steps I followed

1. I booted into recovery mode, factory reset my phone and wiped the cache

2. I rebooted into bootloader mode, and connected to my computer

3. Opened RSD on my computer, loaded the sbf and started the flash

4. (where things went wrong) It got to a point during the flash after a reboot period or whatever where it said to power on the device manually so I tried and it wouldn't do anything. No response when I click power button or volume buttons or any combination of the three. I let it sit for awhile without any change in status and finally pulled the battery to see if that would help. No dice. Then I closed RSD and disconnected the phone. Removed and reinstalled the battery several times and tried holding down the power button but nothing comes on the screen, no logo no menus no nothing. I seem to have successfully and thoroughly bricked it.

The only sign of life is that it shows in RSD when I connect it to the computer, but I cant flash anything.

I really hope someone has some genius ideas to help me out, and I really appreciate all the information already in the thread. You guys are awesome!
[Defy General] mr.fbrock:
The screen with the green android and white triangle and exclamation point is normal. Click the home button and the menu pops up. Then use volume to nav and power to select.

Hi all, I am using ICS 4.0.4 on my Defy XT. Today there is an announcement from Google that navigation is available for India along with Live traffic updates.

[Defy General] urfrndsandy:
Not possible I guess
[Defy General] zyxwvut:
I don't own defy xt but I stumbled on this thread and wanted to share my thoughts. If you can flash ICS sbf and it boots, then are no longer able to flash ANY GB sbf (it doesn't boot) then flashing ICS probably has blown an efuse and thus preventing any downgrade.
[Defy General] k1000dubw:
That's what i fear, but why neokragu wrote this at he end of his message:

" If You dont like the ICS then you can revert back to the GB any time "

maybe he could give me the solution ?
