Holding both volume down and power button even after the Motorola logo should get you into the stock recovery I.e android with an exclamation. From there holding both volume buttons should be enough. If this does not work then an sbf flash is necessary

But I flashing( all sbf bl,4,5,6,7) nothing works .Stock recovery didn't work ;/;/

Sorry for my english

If you are stuck with BL7, there's no way to downgrade from it.

Now, you'll have to follow this tutorial here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1542956

It's simple. And if you do everything described, there's no way you will solve your problem.

After this, you'll be able to flash any Custom ROM.

Good Luck.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorenard:
So, you are stuck in the Boot Loader screen?

Try following those steps:

1. Flash the .sbf file (4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE) directly from RSD Lite.

2. Reboot. Even if you get stuck in a bootlooping screen, hold Vol. Down Key while booting. Once inside de Stock Recovery screen, press both Vol. Down and Up keys at same time and do a Wipe.

3. After that, flash the rooted SBF 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SBF from RSD Lite

I am also having the same problem, i did it the same way by flashing the DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CN_SIGN_UCADEFYEMARAB1B50AA009.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRIRD15_P015_A030_Service1FF.sbf, but still its stuck at red M logo, i can't enter into stock recovery mode, i cant clear the cache and data, any solution?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorenard:
As far as I know, if your ROM enters in the M Logo, you should be able to get in the stock recovery.

This is one of the good things about having a locked bootloader.

Remember to press the Vol. Down Key on the right time, when the LED turns on for a while.

If it doesn't work, try holding the Vol. Down Key and then press the Power button to turn it on.

After that, in the Recovery Screen, press both Vol. Down and Vol. Up keys at the same time to access the Recovery Menu.

Please, let me know if it worked.

Good Luck.

I'm having the same problem.

No access to bootloader, even trying install the suggested rom. Only looping o Red Motorola logo. :/
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lorenard:
As I told before, it's normal to get a bootloop in the DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CN_SIGN.

After flashing this one, you still have to flash the 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SBF.

Reposting the steps:

1. Flash the .sbf file (4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE) directly from RSD Lite.

2. Reboot.

Even if you get stuck in a bootlooping screen, hold Vol. Down Key while booting

. Once inside de Stock Recovery screen, press both Vol. Down and Up keys at same time and do a Wipe.

3. After that, flash the rooted SBF 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE Rooted SBF from RSD Lite

If you can't wipe, just flash it with RSD Lite from the bootloader screen. To get there, hold Vol. Up Key while turning on your device.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hykhleif:
well i am just amazed how unprofessional case makers especially those who manufacture cases of leather with belt clips are

1- some look great like norveve, but for you to use u have to buy the flip down or flip up, but then the closure which closes the case cuases continuous rubbing against the bezel and the paint starts to fade

2- leather cases that have side flips are the worst to use as its not use to take pictures at all with such type of cases

3- why those who manufacture great cases don't consider that most of us need it to be put on our belts for convenience.

I am fed up with all the cases, can someone send me a link for a flip up case that can be put on the belt for gods sake
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xartic12:
How unprofessional? Be happy that they even made the case in first place.

You sound like you are the type of person who would always need 3 napkins for dinner, 3 pieces of ice cubes in your drink, only 3 items of food on your plate.

Instead of complaining and ranting on here about how unprofessional these case makers are, you should probably email them with some insight on a product that you would like to see, otherwise how are they suppose to know what you want.

So instead of *****ing this entire time about case makers, you could have actually posted a simple thread, "I can't find a case to tend my needs, are there any cases out there that are flip up and able to be used on a belt?".

Still think it's funny how you completely disregard flip cases in your rant, but then ultimately ask for a flip case.

[Motorola Photon 4G] ElijahGT:
Well my problem is that I haven't had any problems, lol. Let me make that a little more clear, I've been running my MoPho on Jokers CM9 7.0.0 for MONTHS since the day it came out. And it was so stable I never bothered looking to update any more after that. Truth is before Jokers CM9 I hadn't flashed any ROMs on this phone before, I went straight from stock to I think version 3.8 or so. And I've been a loyal Joker fan ever since. But after I quit updating I lost track of what issues have been fixed, and what issues have arisen. So I'm really at a lost for what to do, I don't know what has been happening on the scene, and unfortunatley, I'm in need of update because I have started getting bigger and bigger issues with this release. Crazy stuff really, I don't think anyone else are having these issues, and I'm sure it's because I've stayed on this release for so long, in fact I've been on this same install since June I believe.

Anywho, I'm trying to figure out what I should do from here. I really need the update because my phone is starting to become a little unusable. And I'm starting to have to do workarounds for workarounds. So is CM10 the way to go? Or is there any other ROMs worth looking into, and if I do go with CM10, what would be the best update process to go from 7.0.0 to latest without doing a fresh install if possible. If not what Jelly Bean ROM is the most stable right now? Also, is there any GB ROM that is up to par with JB?

TL;DR stuck on bugged legacy ROM, need to find the latest and greatest with the least amount of issues.

Also! If any devs happen to pop over this thread (if I were lucky enough), and they want some reports of what issues I'm running into with my install I'd be more than willing to tell you about them, screenshots, reproducing them, etc. They're really interesting to say the least. I've got one that causes thumbnails in my gallery to be replaced by images I've never even taken or seen anywhere else. And they also tend to be pretty risque!
[Motorola Photon 4G] njankit:
This CM10 rom by Th3Bill is my daily driver for about a month now. To install this rom you'll have to do a fresh install, you can't upgrade it over CM9. There are some minor issues, as is the case with every aftermarket rom.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Kevets:
Do it. Th3Bill's CM10 is as good as any right now. CM9 for the Photon didn't have a chance to fully mature before CM10 came along.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ElijahGT:
I'm on my phone right now, so searching isn't really pheasible for me. Would you mind telling me what the major issues are? I'm assuming all the.old driver issues still exist.

** have not received my phone yet **

https://www.rearthusa.com/google-nexus-4-ringke-slim-case

Ordered my nexus 4 and slim case together, got the case today, no sign of my phone yet!

Appearance wise the case looks, as usual, slim - very slim! probably less than 1/2 mm and super light! I have the galaxy nexus slim case as well and there's a leather patch in the back with rearth logo and all. On this one its sketched on the case itself - adding no bulk and probably making it lighter :)

Design-wise it looks and feels like a premium case, the matte black finish and well cut edges primarily contributes to that. Power button and volume rocker cuts are well tapered - cannot validate the placement though, not without the phone of-course! The material is also somewhere in between sft-tpu and hard-plastic, something that feels natural in hand.

Safety/peace of mind wise, it'll probably feel a little less secure than the galaxy nexus slim case. On the galaxy nexus case the the top and bottom was fully covered, the microUsb and headphone ports were pluggable and the sides ware exposed a bit. In this nexus 4 case the sides are fully covered, top and bottom are exposed and the ports are not pluggable :(

There's a side-effect of the full side-covered design though (which I cannot confirm right now). According to the reviews the nexus 4, the front glass is slightly tapered on the edges making edge to edge gestures fluid and natural. This might have been more enjoyable with a design similar to galaxy nexus slim case with top and bottom covered and sides exposed. This is not a deal breaker though as ALL the cases available today, including the original bumper case, will have the same side effect. I wish, given the stability/usability of the galaxy nexus slim case, they could have chosen a similar design - it'd have been more enjoyable.

Final words, I love this case!!!

===Update, 14th Dec===

got 2nd rev, first one came with minor defect! got prompt response from them and the revised case. sadly, still its not 100% perfect.

however, given current choices, this is relatively better...

Jst got my case yesterday, and I would honestly wait to see if these go down in price, or just not at all. It doesn't fit snugly on the left side of my device (by the volume rocker), and to me thats a problem. It barely, if at all, protects above the screen line, so it's really for the sides and back. Not a big deal for me, as I never have my phone on its screen, but at $12 shipped - I expect more.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.

Edit: Just checked my email from the previous ticket that the person on CSR emailed me (just remembered that they sent me an follow up email when I contacted them about it). Noticed that there was actually a USPS tracking code and label already created. Looks like it's already being processed. Definitely customer support is up there from Rearth.

@Ngo93: Yeah I'm not sure why they made the case even more minimal but personally for me I like the N4 version a lot better mainly because of the material being used from the back. It is very pleasant to hold in the hands. My only complaints at this time would be that if your hands are dirty, it does get dirty from the back but other than that it's not much. Easily cleanable.

I looked at this case too, but ended up with something else because it doesn't cover all the front edges. Before my brand new N4 I had a iPhone 3GS with a case like this one. After a while all the chrome on the top edges were getting scuffed and scratched. I recommend something that covers everything but the screen, if you want a scratch-free N4.

[Samsung Galaxy R i9103] Tha TechnoCrat:
Hi guys

I always wondered how to know if your phone is stuck in a bootloop and did a lot of research of my own and found that if the phone is stuck in a bootloop the LED of the phone and the screen will not dim after a certain amount of time . Bootloop is the problem when your phone doesn't start, it remains on the boot sequence

Bootloops are mainly caused because system files interfering with each other which causes instability and/or crashes at the boot sequence.*To find the cause of a bootloop you have to think about what you did before getting the bootloop.Choose one of the following reasons that caused the bootloop for you and try out its solution.- After flashing a new rom

*If you flash a new (base)rom with odin your /data will be kept. This means your old dalvik-cache will be used for the new system files which would result in a bootloop, to fix this problem:

1. Start your phone in CWM Recovery

2. Go to Advanced

3. Choose "Wipe dalvik-cache"

4. Now go to "Mounts & Storage"

5. Choose "Wipe /cache"

6. Reboot your phone if the problems still exists after doing that and you're sure it's not related to the rom, then you need to do this:

1. Start your phone in CWM Recovery

2. Now go to "Mounts & Storage"

3. Choose "Wipe /data"

4. Choose "Wipe /cache"

5. Reboot your phone

Wanna go back to stock firmware see below

1 Open odin 1.85 download here

http://www.mediafire.com/?36mcl2rs5gwrvsj

2) Shut down your phone completely and make sure it is unplugged from ur PC.

3) Enter download mode by holding down the Volume down and center button and turning on the phone.

4) Press Volume up to continue

5) Run Odin on ur PC and select F. reset time and auto reboot and click on pda and browse for your stock firmware tar or .md5

6) Connect your phone to ur PC and Odin will detect ur phone and the COM ID turns yellow.

7) Click on Start and let Odin flash your phone. Wait for the Green Light and let ur phone restart.

You can also learn how to use logcat from here
