thx mate, i dare not to touch anything including rootin (cause mine defy is 2.51, need a bit workaround to root), until there is an ASIA firmware out in the open will not do anything drastic, cause if you need to send for warranty, you need that firmwackare pack.

P/S: not my defy, so dont add me to the list tongue.gif

EDIT: battery gauge still show 10% increment, i want 1% increment

Ok maybe more than one process. Emmm actually there's few steps you need to do tongue.gif Yes root with superoneclick and unroot with z4root. But after you unroot, the superuser app is still there even if you do factory reset.

So here's what you need to do. Go download and install root explorer. Get into /system/app and find superuser.apk and delete it. Now use z4root to unroot the phone. Reboot and then uninstall z4root. Walla unroot clean fresh stock rom that will defy through motorola service center checkpoint tongue.gif

REMEMBER to do a nandroid backup on your current stock rom before you flash to froyo or so just in case. The guide in front page still not complete yet. I will do a full step by step guide for safe flashing and rooting soon. Remember to buy me a beer after this tongue.gif Tequila or vodka will do biggrin.gif

fast do a guide on flashing back to stock rom, want to deflower my defy, but until there is stock firmware for warranty purpose, wont dare to do anything, will belanja you the big bottle, big bottle of pepsi, me cant touch beer/tequilla/vodka

yes.
no idea, but after you submerge it in water you have to hit the phone to get the water out of the earpiece else when you receive a call, you can barely hear the other end! laugh.gif
the china version is the link provided in the first post there. Full .sbf flash. after the flash, my phone refused to boot even into recovery or bootloader mode but thankfully rsd lite still detects it.

and btw, my stupid friend managed to scratch my phone screen smack in the middle by scratching my phone along the edge of a CEMENT CHAIR!! Bloody hell already told the fella it'll scratch and in the end it did! #@!%@#@ and idea how to remove scratch from gorilla glass? Or should i send it to a watch shop? cry.gif

i can't feel it with my fingers but its pretty damn obvious if the screen is off and it can be seen if the background is dark. and if i run my fingernails over it i can feel it very obviously.

this is the type of idiot who would never pay. he said 'aiyahh nevermind la it will smoothen out after awhile' doh.gif doh.gif doh.gif

f*** man seriously. Just went visit a couple of watch shops, all refused to take in my phone and hardware stores all don't sell glass scratch remover.

you're using which keyboard? should be under keyboard settings you can disable the vibration during keypress.

after 2 days show him the scratch again see what his respond. ask him to pay or not we all from lowyat bang him

i bought the z-bra + screen protector one,

even though ebay show 18 + 6 for shipping (total all around $8 (SGD) ), but maybank show that my account only credited rm18.... so rm18 is totally a bargain there for cover + SP

flashing this phone is TOO dangerous............. do you know that you got to change the motherboard to get back to previous version???

i kinda messed up in flashing and sent my phone to warranty, and when i got it back, it write at the resit "swap IMEI" in other words... change motherboard.....................

man......... that the last time i touching anything about firmware, just going to overclock right now

can someone tell me about the fixed sbf that can make us downgrade the phone.

tell me if this step is correct:

1.since there already are .sbf for south east asia, i dont have to make a nandroid backup.

2.get the fixed .sbf, flash it, and now im already in froyo?

3.if want to downgrade just flash the 2.51 asia .sbf.

is there any guide about the fixed sbf?

The guide is on the 1st page, step by step from eclair to froyo.

ouh, thanks, i thought it is the still about the old eclair to froyo guide

how bout from froyo back to eclair? using the 2.51 .sbf is safe? or need to use restore backup from clockwork?
and if we use any froyo custom roms, it still safe to downgrade back right?

question,

i use the step in the 1st page eclair to froyo, it seems like the .zip that is use in the CWM have been modified such as the booting animation.

i kinda dont like it,

so can i use the step of FULL flash but use the fixed sbf to maintain the downgrade?
