So first of all.
Hello my name is Michka.
I just 2 days ago bought a defy and it works just perfect. I installes froyo paysrom and overclocked my phone to 1300 mhz vsel 70. But there is a but. I installed clockworkmod recovery and when i launch it with the app it boots up perfect but when i boot it up with voldown + power... Droid... Vol up + vol down i get a blue android recovery with a text the bottom that some folders didnt load like "caller or something".
Can someone tell what i am doing wrong or how to fix this cause i want make my own roms like i did for my wildfire but i want to be 100% i have a chance for retrieving backups.

Sent from my MB525 using XDA App

The clockworkmod used on motorola phones use a trap to boot up. Motorola's phone have a system that uses RSA encryption to avoid unlocking. That turn impossible you change recovery partions, bootloader and so on. So, you need to start your phone, open clockworkmod app and use it to boot up in recovery mode.

Sorry for my bad english.

If something does go wrong you can flash an sbf file, as that will be motorola signed, thus you can boot up into the software you have just flashed. Then you can root and install the recovery, provided that the sbf you flashed is rootable.
