Well, it seems that now my device is rooted because I saw a Superuser icon in my apps, so it seems like I succeeded. The bad side is that now I do not have wifi access. Tried with protected and open wifis and no results. I do not know if the problem was after I flashed the custom firmware or after root, because I have not tried to use the wifi until today. Now my priority is looking how to enable the wifi capabilities. Anyway thanks for your help.
[USERS CAN REQUEST][TUTORIAL]Motorola Defy Mini XT320/XT321 Custom SBF with fastboot
- Thread starter rootdefyxt320
- Start date
Is your custom sbf based on your original firmware ?
Before to do anything, did you tested if your original firm had native fastboot ? I ve asked this because i saw "0A" in sbf file name.

Yep. The only difference that I noticed between my original and the sbf rootdefyxt320 shared with me is the final part of the flex version (mine is ´´FLEXTNBST´´ and the other one is ´´NOAPR_sec_20120514´´)
Edit:Somebody rebooted the phone and actually I have wifi and phone signal, so your method did work for me too.

Before leave this method i would try
1 reflash orig firm assuring all funcionalities ok or look for another that works for your device and flash it to verif if every thing is ok.
2 repeat this method creating custom sbf based on firm that works for your device but copying only appsbootsec.mbn (or something like that) before compiling. This is the original concept of this method.

@MauroSZ Here's the fastboot files for XT687.
Instructions:
Use the same steps in the OP except the attachment of course and steps 11 and 12. Instead use MotoAndroidDepacker 1.3 to repack SBF File. So in MotoAndroidDepacker 1.3 you select the 'Select Files Folder' then you select the folder where CG2.smg, firmware.hmg and RAMDLD.smg are and then select the button 'Compile File' and it will compile the SBF. It will be placed in the folder named rebuilt.

RSD Lite Error
Unfortunately does not work for XT687. What I did:
- Some weeks a go I used M A Depacker 1.2 alpha 3 and splited 2 SBFs:
. Old - 27D - with fastboot
. New - 27G - better but without fastboot
- I used your attachment XT68_fastboot_files.zip only to get the info which are fastboot files, and I copied overwriting from 27D CG2-Extracted to 27G CG2-Extracted.
- Then I tried to repack using SBF-Recalc and it failed aborting. Maybe the XT687 firmware is too big, much more than XT320.
- I used a old notebook running Win XP. After I tried on a new Intel i7 4GB RAM PC running Win 7 64 Ultimate with the same result.
- After your post, I reused ready files / folders to repack with M A Depacker 1.3. Did not abort. Really repacked.
- Booted on CWM, did a nandrod first and all wipes after. Then booted in Flash-mode directly,
- But I could not reflash because occurred an error on RSD Lite. I Attached 2 pictures: A print of PC screen with RSD Lite error and a picture of device screen with respective error.
The error was just in beginning, and I was afraid to hard brick my phone losing the flash capability. I did not disconnect and kept it in Flash-mode even with flash error text on screen. Then I loaded on RSD Lite the stock ROM 27D with fastboot and I let it flashing for 3 seconds until to appear MODEM, when I pulled off the USB cable and removed the battery. Then fastboot->CWM->Restore and now every thing is OK like was before, but we don't have the custom SBF yet, that would make life easier for many XT687 users.

You can't hardbrick due to locked bootloader. I will try to make a fastboot only SBF. RSD can't seem to send the jump command to jump into RDL Mode so it won't flash the SBF at all. Ok, I compiled my fastboot only SBF for XT687 using SBF ReCalc. Would you be willing to test it please. Just extract the SBF out of the zip file and flash the SBF with RSD.

Ok, I don't have that firmware here but I will try to obtain anyway. If you don't have fastboot just use this method: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36199694&postcount=3 and there is no Android 4.x for the phone. How come you have Australian Firmware when you live in Guam?
Flashing Fastboot Only SBF
It works. Thank you. What I did:
- Booted into CWM and did a nandroid
- Still on CWM, all wipes
- Reflashed the firmware (RSD Lite 6.1.4) that was running on my XT687, it is the latest but without fastboot (1)
- Turned on the phone and verified if every thing was OK
. really it was liked I took it out from the box ( both sim, data network, wifi etc)
- Flashed the fastboot only SBF that you packed.
. Some files were flashed and at certain point an error occurred ( see 2 pictures attached and the error text in the end (2) )
. I had a intuition this error can be ignored. I was right.
- Disconnected from PC and removed the battery shutting it down
- Powered on the phone to see if every thing was OK. Really was ( both sim, data network, wifi etc)
- Booted into CWM only to test my flashable update.zip to root it ( I made it using @Bin4ry method files and permissions ) - It works !
- Booted into CWM again to restore my nandroid (success)
Now my device is working firmware 2_27G_2009 and fastboot 2_27D_2009 like was before, but MODEM files were not flashed at this time. I have not notice any difference yet. Are MODEM files restored by nandroid ?
I think you've made the third method. First was AR only. The second is flashing a custom SBF. The third is flashing fastboot only SBF, easier than AR method, because you can be relaxed waiting the error to shut down your phone removing battery. The third is faster than the second and you don't loose any data. If you solve errors it will be prettiest but now it is already good.

Yeah, I requested it when he asked me to request the SBF. I got it yesterday anyway. Modem files are not restored by nandroid anyway. Thanks for your useful feedback.

23New Way to Root DEFY MINI XT320/XT321 if you don't have fastboot.
1. Download the Fastboot SBF attachment and the root Defy Mini Attachment
2. Extract all the files out of the zip making sure all the files are in the same place.
3. Put phone in flash-mode by powering off your device and pressing Vol-, Power Button and camera button simultaneously and connect it to the computer.
4. Install RSD-Lite if you haven't done so.
5. Now select the SBF and it will flash fastboot to your phone. Don't worry about the flashing errors because it won't affect the phone at all. Disconnect the phone out of the computer and pull out the battery to get out of flashmode.
@MauroSZ and me have confirmed it .
6. Put the update.zip in the root of your sdcard
7. Now go to the folder where you extracted root Defy Mini Attachment.
8. Now make sure your phone has USB Debugging enabled.
9. Now click on the file named start_cwm_recovery.bat
10. Now using the Volume buttons to navigate and power button to select, select the option 'Apply update.zip from sdcard'
11. Now select yes to install the zip file.
12. Now select reboot system now and select Yes to Fix Root.
13. Now your device is rooted.
@Anushan use this method if you don't know how to make a custom SBF.20Hey Defy Mini Users, I've been able to make custom SBF's and include fastboot and Bootloader 01.0a in them.

Request which firmware you want me to do and I will do it for you.
Now you don't need to do Alin Razvan method anymore to obtain fastboot. This method is based on @ManOLCZ method. So credits to him for the original method. I went a step further by including an older bootloader. Bootloader 01.0a can fix battery charging issues if you are not using original Defy Mini Battery and it is the native bootloader for fastboot mode.
How to get Bootloader 01.0a and fastboot on Motorola Defy Mini XT320/XT321 SBF:
1. Download the attachments below.
2. Extract all the zip files
3. Open Motorola Android Depacker and select the button 'Open From file' and select the SBF file for your phone and open it.
4. Click on the button 'Split to folder' to split your desired SBF file.
5. Now select the button 'Open from File' and change the selection of file type to 'MOTOBLUR mbn image (*CG2.smg)' go to the folder called nameofsbf-extracted which contains CG2.smg and open it.
NOTE: nameofsbf-extracted this means the name of the SBF file with the word extracted at the end. Here's an example: TNBST_4_0A.1F.0ERPS_flex_WE_Orange_Spain-extracted
6. Now go to the folder CG2-Extracted to and replace the files with the one from the 2nd attachment.
7. Now go to Motorola Android Depacker and select 'Open Files Folder' and select the folder named CG2-Extracted.
8. Select 'compile file' and it should be place in a folder named rebuilt
9. Now copy the custom CG2.smg to folder with the files named 'firmware.hmg' and 'RAMDLD.smg'
10. Now open SBF Recalc and select the button 'Open CG-Folder' and select where CG2.smg, firmware.hmg and RAMDLD.smg are.
11. Now select 'Create SBF-File' and wait for a moment. Now wait a moment and your custom SBF file will be created.
12. Your SBF is now ready to be flashed with RSD-Lite.
