Please help!!!!

I tried the steps in Page 34, After flashing "Froyo" i am not able to get any GSM signal!!! What to do now I dont have any backup as well!!

 

[sunny27]

Change the base band switcher---go through the thread I listed it there along with the links.

 

[bond_bhai]

How do we get back to Official Froyo after CM& update? Can it even be done if we do not have nandriod/titanium back up? Would it work if we have Froyo sbf? Just Flashing would work?

Here's what i am planning to do -

1. Flash Official Froyo via RSD

2. Wipe Data/Cahche

3. Reboot.

Would this sequence work? Please let me know.

Thanks,

BB

Interchange 1st and 2nd step.

 

[bond_bhai]

Thanks Vikram.

I am planning to use the sbf from here sbf:defy [And Developers]

Will this work?

 

[kvikram]

Yes. That is a very reliable page. I always download sbf from there.

[terminater]

kindly suggestr sites where i can get good apps, games.. for using in Defy.. nd i have a lot of videos in .mkv,avi.. how to play them in defy? which is the best video convertor wiithout loss of quality?

 

[Tech Savy]

why battery bakup is poor ? Can any owner explain?

 

[sunny27]

I get 1 and half days to 2 days out of it--offcourse I keep EDGE and Data browsing off. I turn it on when I need it. I use it for 4 hours of calls and some movie watching or the occasional game play. If you turn Data,3G,EDGE or WIFI or bluetooth on 24x7 how would get more than 10 hours of battery life?

Try MoboPlayer

I get less than 1 day with continuous Data sync on !

but yes this is the case with every Android Smartphone out there !
