[Project Cheesecake] Unlocking the DEFY bootloader! - ABANDONED

[carlo93]

After phone boot.. at the Setup Wizard press menu key, and you can see this option.

I'm going to try. I'll let you know...

in /data/data/com.motorola.blur.service.blur/shared_prefs/blur_services_config.xml you can change server without wipe.

Cool, i was about to ask

 

[Quarx]

Oops server won't change by this method...
Need recreate BlurAccout.

In Cloud Setup already has many servers (no need change manually).. but scrolling so hard

 

[carlo93]

Yes, i got "Cloud setup" on gingerbread leaked . Thanks.
You're right man, it's quite impossible to scroll :|!

I'm doing some test now!
-
I've set master-qa2.blurdev.com as server, but when i update it say: "No update is necessary at this time".

[q] do i always need to wipe to change server with cloud setup?

so the same
master-dev.blurdev.com
master-qa3.blurdev.com
master-qa1.blurdev.com
master-staging1.blurdev.com

I don't know how to remove blurAccount... I do a wipe

Ok, i'll wipe and try other servers...
I hope someone else could do the same thing, we'll be faster

master-qa2.blurdev.com -> "no update is necessary at this time"
master-qa4.blurdev.com -> "no update is necessary at this time"
master-staging1.blurdev.com -> "Your device is up to date. no update is necessary at this time"
master-sdc1.svcmot.com -> "Your device is up to date. no update is necessary at this time"
master-blur.svcmot.com -> "Your device is up to date. no update is necessary at this time"
master-lab.blurderv.com -> "Error creating account: an error has occured. please try again."
master-dev.blurdev.com -> "Error creating account: Unable to connect at this time, try again later."
master-homer.blurdev.com -> "Error creating account: an error has occured. please try again."
master-bart.blurdev.com -> "Error creating account: Unable to connect at this time, try again later.".

Seems like not great news for us Defy owners so far. Keep going guys. Someone needs to keep a list of already tried roms so we aren't wasting time

There must be a problem with time... Here i've listed all server tried and results.

It's weird... Almost all errors are related to time, i'm stopped now.

Erm, doesn't this just mean that there simply is no update for the Defy at the moment? So the errors are not related to "time" but to the lack of an update in general at the tried hosts, aren't they?

It may be. if there weren't any update i think it's useless giving a message related to time though...

Oh, now I get what you mean. Thanks for clarifying. That is a pitty, but maybe when a release of the mysterious Defy+ comes closer, there could be an update.

 

[samcripp]

Im glad you guys got the hang of it. Bow continue testing firvall your builds

Sent from my MB860 using XDA Premium App

 

[Antszej]

I think that you can try to find updates using Froyo, But changing something in build.prop
First thing is to change name to MB526
Second thing is to change market verifications or Idk what is that thing to that one from GB builds (last lines of build.prop, some links, it helped me in buying Order & Chaos ),

I think there is a rom you dont used, or its missed in XDA for defy. Here is the link and version name, hope it will help.

I don't think it's a rom problem. Test updates are just not avaible for defy...

dont give up on just usa tmo, try other builds as well.

 

[slipknotfn]

Could the issue be that in build.prop (at least on tmo 2.2.1) it states "ro.product is obsolete; use ro.product.device". Could this be telling the server when it tries to update that this device is not eligible? I am a total noob at this and trying to grasp all the concepts. Just saw this whilst reading through the files.

It may be. if there weren't any update i think it's useless giving a message related to time though...

'At this time' is just an English phrase, similar to 'right now' or 'at the moment'

 

[cloogshizer]

'At this time' is just an English phrase, similar to 'right now' or 'at the moment'

I guess what he meant was that as there is no update "at this time" there has to be an update at some time, i.e. in the future. I'm not very confident about about the future update thing, at least for MB525. Maybe for MB526 the chances are better.

 

[carlo93]

Yes, i got it later. Once i switched to italian language, i understood what it actually means...

I've looked for updates with gingerbread leaked rom ( MB526 ), no results anyway.
