Hi,
I am trying to flash MIUI on my Defy which is currently running the official 2.2.2 released here in India.
What i have done so far (and repeated the entire process several times):
-Rooted the phone using SuperOneClick
-Installed ROM Manager
-Installed Clockworkmod Recovery 2.5.1.8 for Defy
-Downloaded 'miuiandroid_Defy-2.3.4a' the then latest version of MIUI from their site and the corresponding language pack
-Installed and booted into custom recovery
-Took a nandroid backup of the current ROM
-Wiped data, cache and dalvik cache
-Selected the .zip ROM file from the sdcard and installed it
-After the installation was done, i rebooted the system
This is where the problem started. I had read that the phone might take forever for its first boot. But in my case, the phone would stay stuck on the M logo till i removed the battery. On restart, the same thing repeated.
I found the SBF for the retail version of 2.2 i found on the forums and used RSD Lite 4.9 to flash it to the phone and then restored the nandroid backup i had made previously to get back to where i started from. And i repeated the entire process 4 times using 3 different versions of MIUI.
Am i missing something here? What can i do to get the phone to move past that M logo? I have been trying to find a solution to this issue since over a week now. None of the forums seem to have a solution to a similar problem. Any help would be appreciated.
