Hmm, i wonder how it will stack up with jboogies, so far all of jboogies roms give me the same annoying problem of erratic phone reception and emergency call notifications.

I personally have same problem with Orange Deblur Rom...and only happened at my home town sad.gif

Then I restored to UK FROYO the signal just nice .

guys or sifus, i need some help.

i flashed my defy into TmobileUS_Boot_Devtree.sbf as per the step by step eclair to froyo guide at 1st page.

all went well except flashing process failed (0x7100) in RSDlite, saw in a forum that renaming the sbf helps, i tried it did help.... but the outcome was my defy is now stuck at boot screen forever.

how to bring back my defy? how to restore to my stock rom?
*
what version of RSDlite u using? it need quite latest version .. don't use those E398/ E2 time.

also make sure u installed the latest motorola driver in your windows.

Well if you go to XDA u can see all the guys there are so excited about it. So you can imagine how does it compared to Froyo. It's really fast. As for Quadrant, i dont know how accurate it is but at 800Mhz i got 1400++ and OC at 1000mhz i got about 1800.

It's quite stable alrdy but as i mentioned a few function couldnt work yet, but i dont really bother about those. I never use aGPS, FM radio and Auto Brightness. As for Camcorder, so far i only use it once since i got the phone. Will do a guide when i am more sober. haha. Dont want to write wrongly and cause others to brick phone  sweat.gif

bravo ! weekly pick shall go to u rclxms.gif

1) After downloading extract the nandroid backup and the sbf file. You will have 1) a folder called LiquidArc and 2) a sbf sheet. Better extract them on your desktop. (Easier to find)
2) If you rooted your phone and downloaded the system recovery from the STEP BY STEP FROM ECLAIR TO FROYO GUIDE, (on the front page of this forum) you will have a folder called goapkrev on your sd card. Place the LiquidArc folder in the sdcard/goapkrev/backup.
3) Open system recovery wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache and restore the LiquidArc nandroid backup.
4) when restore is complete pull battery out and place back in while holding the vol up and power button(bootloader mode)
5)Use rsdlite to flash the sbf
(6)Enjoy
Note: after signing in, select the launcher as default, let google restore your apps for you and when done reboot.

This is all I did and everything went as it should and am very happy with this rom. biggrin.gif
Ps. I never use Nandroid 2.0. so can't tell you anything about it. unsure.gif
*
in my case not sure why my system recovery not work ( may be due to the installation of 2ndInit )

so I have to use the 2ndInit to enter custom recovery and rename my sdcard/goapkrev to sdcard/clockworkmod then only can see the restore folder sweat.gif

if u try to setup hotmail into the phone application .. i'm not sure u can do it.

cause not all free email service allow to do that, unless to pay for premium account.

for what i know here, gmail can do it by free but still u need to login to gmail / setting / enable the pop or imap service. then u have to check the setting.

for yahoo, can but not free.
