[Project Cheesecake] Unlocking the DEFY bootloader! - ABANDONED

[samcripp]

So we just got the Atrix unlocked, and i dont own a defy, but i think the method could work for you guys as well.

Im gonna need a few things from you guys to check servers, and once i figure out whats up i will be handing out more perfect instructions.

I would like to give credit to navalynt for creating the files use to search the test -clouds for updates.

Anyways. all i need to begin with is a build.prop from your current most up to date stock build.

i will come back in a few hours and check the thread.

also if you guys have a good irc i could use to comunicate with devs i apreciate it.

EDIT: i would like to add that im not promising anything, nor am i asking for donations or devices. i just want everyone to have an unlock.

im using a cm7 nighly build, dunno if that can help, a motorola's froyo version should be better, or not?

keep going the good work!


n i recommend u to contact quarx: http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=513620
and/or Epsylon: http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=803131

who maintains the CM7 ports to defy

Hmm..I heard that someone told that atrix's methord wont work on defy........may be it would be wrong......

 

[chhanga]

Would the leaked GBs help ?

 

[samcripp]

Would the leaked GBs help ?

they could, if you could point me to them that be great

also i need to know whats the latest "OFFICIAL" build is, and get a build.prop for it.

many people doubt there is an unlock, but we can really only know if we look for it.

Here are all the links to the different SBF's allso Stock Roms. Do not know if you mean this or need something else.

 

[real_cornholio]

do you ned build.prop final (Froyo 2.2) or from Beta (Gingerbread 2.3) release?

 

[Gusar321]

The Atrix uses a different bootloader, so the method of unlocking that will indeed not work on the Defy.

 

[samcripp]

I need a build.prop for froyo.

No one said we are going to apply the ATRIX bl. Im gonna search for a defy build.

This is the froyo build.prop from the latest 3.4.2-117 UK ROM i pulled it out of a nandroid of this official ROM.

Hope it helps.

P.S. Rename to build.prop

 

[krustbr]

Dunno if it helps, but, the defy loader is X-loader: https://gitorious.org/x-load-omap3/mainline/trees/master

 

[wongwaikiet]

The latest official Froyo would be the SEA15 3.4.3-36-1.7 ? Released date 6 July 2011

here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1093352

however I don't have build.prop of it cause I am using CM7

 

[viper.]

build 3.4.2-117. uk=2.2.1

Build prop from user gommers1978on first page is from 2.2.2 ver(3.4.2-177)

The latest froyo version is 3.4.2-179-2, whose kernel ( 179 ) is also used in CyanogenMod.

BTW, i've attached the relative build.prop file.

 

[samcripp]

UPDATE!

i have not forgot about the DEFY. sorry ive just a bit confuse by the sbf you guys have available and the information on your system.

but i assure you once i figure out a solution for mounting the build.prop safely into my atrix i will begin testing servers.

if anyone would like to get started on doing this themselfs. you need to be on whatever is, the OFFICIAL (not leaked not made up like cm7) build for the defy.

the link is here! use the instructions loosely as of course you are using a different phone. if i had device it be easier for me to search. im working on saving money to buy one.

further this is the original project cheesecake thread that found the unlock for international users. i recommend you take a read and see how they use the difference techniques for searching.

credit goes to navalynt for the search method

 

[carlo93]

I would try, but a the moment i'm on cyanogen.
Maybe when i'll have some time...

Has anyone tried if this method works?

 

[ramy911us]

mmmmm,project cheesecake,that sounds delicious....

 

[viper.]

I would like to try this too but i am not really sure where and what i have to do beacuse all given links are for Atrix.
