[PORT] Easy Defy to Bravo port instructions EDIT 10/28 -Now Working-

---

EDIT: There was an error in the file I uploaded in /ect/motorola. The error has now been fixed. You should now get a working signal when following the instructions. Please re download the "DEFY2BRAVO.zip". It has been updated.
Here is a list of what to do in order to get ROMs like CM7 and MIUI for the Defy to work on the Bravo. This method works PERFECT.

Before you start:
Download my "DEFY2BRAVO.zip"
Get Winrar
Get Notepad++

1) Open the Defy ROM you want to get working on the Bravo
2) Delete "boot.img", "devtree.img", and "logo.img"
3) Go to \META-INF\com\google\android\
4) Open file "updater-script" in notepad++
5) Scroll to the bottom and delete these 9 lines:

assert(package_extract_file("logo.img", "/tmp/logo.img"),
     write_raw_image("/tmp/logo.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk1p10"),
     delete("/tmp/logo.img"));
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
     write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk1p15"),
     delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
assert(package_extract_file("devtree.img", "/tmp/devtree.img"),
     write_raw_image("/tmp/devtree.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk1p12"),
     delete("/tmp/devtree.img"));

6) Open my "DEFY2BRAVO.zip" click and drag everything in \system\etc\ in my "DEFY2BRAVO.zip" into \system\etc of the ROM you are porting

7) Open my "DEFY2BRAVO.zip" click and drag everything in \system\lib in my "DEFY2BRAVO.zip" into \system\lib of the ROM you are porting

Done. You can flash this and everything up to the camcorder will work perfect. We still need the actual camera to work, so please help join in on the effort.

Enjoy whatever you just ported!

Excellent dude, I had it, but I'll copy everything so I can make ports also.

Do you have video camera working doing these steps?

When I did it a couldnt get video camera.

i confirm the camcorder working perfectly !!! Waiting for camera !!

Nice, gonna try it later.

I have a question for you BravoMotorola.

I'd like to make a custom rom from the system dump from gingerblur, so that we can install it as a normal rom, not as a restore backup.

Thanks.

We can also use rdannar's sbf when flashing these roms

And Walter released his ms2ginger 2.0. Unfortunately we can't port it beside it's a backup. I tried to do it but I got stuck on boot logo everytime

No, we cant do it this way, I think its not the same.

I'd like to convert this backup to a normal rom, but dont know how.

I hope that this version is not based on a kernel 2.3, because then we are not going to port it anymore, unless a code master come to us.

That fix is specific to MIUI and also doesn't come with a camera fix
