DEFY+ BL7 Root problem

---

Hello,

I encounter a problem trying to root my defy+.

I've followed the information provided here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1542956 (Thread :
DFP-188, DFP-231, DFP-2311 BL7 Finally Rooted).

What i've done :
Step 1 ("Wipe phone twice") => OK
Step 2 ("Flash 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 CN or 4.5.1-134 DFP-231 Retail.en.EU CEE") => KO...
...the result is the same with both versions CN & EU, after the phone is rebooted by rsd lite, i see the M logo then the following error : err:a5,69,35,00,27.

I could make it work again flashing the version marked "Retail French" (DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_BLUR_SIGN_USADEFYEMARAB1B8RTFR004.0R_PDS03C_US AJRDNGIBRRTFR_P020_A024_M002_Service1FF.sbf.gz), but of course not rooted.

I tried from 3 different computers, re-downloading the sbf every time, different usb cables, different rsdlite versions....always the same result.

I hope someone will have a solution for this problem, or a way of investigating on this issue.

Here are the current information of my phone :
System : 45.0.2310.MB526.Retail.en.FR
Model : MB526
Android Version : 2.3.6
Baseband : EPU93_U_00.60.03
Kernel version : 2.6.32.9-ge281b6e hudsoncm@il93lnxdroid80 #1
Build number : 4.5.1-134_DFP-231

Thank you.

I having successfully rooted and installed ICS on my defy plus having BL7. I have followed the guide provided in this forum -

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1595013


Following are the links from that forum itself, which I followed to root my defy plus (to save your time, but read the forum once).

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/aucmzwd8n...a1w/BL7%20Root (to download the sbf files)

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...5013&page=9#88 (step by step procedure for rooting)

thanks for your answer, but these guides & binaries are the same as one provided in the link i put.

I really read ALL forum information here i could before posting this question.

Sorry, I didn't check that. There might be some problem with the sbf itself, there were several users reporting the problem in that forum. Try to download the sbf from the location which I gave to you. Yesterday, I unrooted my phone and install the official stock ROM for my defy plus, because I have to give my phone to service center again. I tried around five ROM before actually getting the phone work. You can give a try once more.

Check out easyrecovery in the defy dev forum.

the file DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CN_SIGN_UCADEFYEMARA...0_Service1FF.sbf.gz in the link you provided me is marked as corrupted (downloaded twice, tried to open it with 7zip and winrar)

Thank you for pointing me this method i hadn't seen, but i don't have better results just a new error message : Err:A5,70,00,00,2F (i can't post it to the easyrecovery thread...too young member). i could still go back to my stock rom.

The file i get as corrupted is the one from the second link (dropbox place : https://www.dropbox.com/sh/aucmzwd8n...a1w/BL7%20Root)

The first link ( thread "[success!]defy bl7 root! " http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1595013), points to the same file (http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts...vice1FF.sbf.gz) linked by the thread i used in the first place. Still i redownloaded and made a comparaison with the one i previously downladed & test => perfect match

try this

They are the files from the thread "DFP-188, DFP-231, DFP-2311 BL7 Finally Rooted", that i tried in the first place (cf my 1st post).

Moreover, a friend of mine, who has the defy+ too, successfully rooted his phone this way and couldn't do more than i did on my defy+.

I was wondering if a rooted sbf for my stock rom version (retail french) allready exists, and if not how possible i can create such a thing ? (unless someone tells me i go in a bad direction)
