Is it possible ?

i have not tried installing cm9 yet. but from what i read, you just simply reboot into recovery and do the following to downgrade to cm7:
1. wipe data and cache.
2. go into advanced and wipe dalvik cache.
3. go back, and select install zip from sd.
4. select zip from sd, and choose cm7 stable zip and flash. the full stable rom already contains the cm7 kernel. no need to flash separately.
5. again, select gapps zip and flash.
6. reboot.
if you just want to flash cm7 kernel because you want to install a nightly build (without kernel), just flash cm7-kernel-signed.zip, follow by the nightly zip, in step 4.

Yep thats right
Motorola Defy CM7 RC 1.5 OC 1GHz

You need to flash the froyo kernel first
1) Flash froyo sbf (stock rom)
2) root using superoneclick, install sndinitdefy
Then reboot into custom recovery and follow the below steps

Do you really need to flash froyo kernel first?
I have to come back to CM7 and do I really need to flash SBF first? Or can I simply flash CM7 with kernel package?

Please, if you don't know what you are talking about, don't mislead people. If I only need to change a single broken brick in the wall on the second floor, do I need to ruin the whole house and rebuild it?
No need to flash SBF. Just go into recovery, wipe data/cache and dalvik cache, flash CM7 kernel, flash CM7 build, flash gapps for CM, wipe cache and dalvik cache.
DONE!

As above is the right way I have done it lots of times.

[Q] [Question] How to upgrade from CM10 Nightly Build to 2nd boot build?

Hello.
I have installed the Defy Red Len CM10 Nightly Build.
I know there is a 2nd boot nightly build which provided a better solution than the non 2nd boot build
Can anyone provide a step guideline to upgrade / flash installation to the 2nd boot nightly build?
Thanks a lot

Here you go
if upgrading from previous CM10 builds:
1) Wipe Cache and Dalvik.
2)Flash Rom
3)Flash Gapps
4)Wipe Cache and Dalvik again & Reboot
and if coming from different builds(like CM7,CM9 etc)
1)Wipe Data, Cache and Dalvik
2)Flash Rom
3)Flash Gapps
4)Wipe Cache and Dalvik again & Reboot
Hope this helps you and ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE FLASHING NEW ROM.

Thanks a lot. It works
Do you know how to the url for the Check update repo for 2nd boot build?

if you have CM10 from 24.09. and want jump to new kernel by Quarx you don't have to flash gapps ,in the other side yes you have to ,i recommended minimal gapps

yep¡ whit out gapss, for me works like a charm... the new build is 21.10
flashing........

Does anyone know whether this build works on a MB525 with green lense as well, and can confirm that this is one build for 525 green and red lenses as well as for MB526 ?
Greetz.

I own a MB525, red lens, and I am using CM10 by Quarx (Sep 12th). So I just have to:
1) Wipe Cache and Dalvik.
2)Flash Rom
3)Flash Gapps
4)Wipe Cache and Dalvik again & Reboot
And, in today's release, then the update?
What about the kernel? Which one, and when? Thanks
EDIT: Oh, is it incluided in the ROM file now? Sorry, I don't quite understand what the differences are between classic CM10 nightlies and CM10 2ndboot nightlies (I know something about the custom kernel, but haven't found much information exclusively about it).

Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.

I just followed these steps and now can't boot. I am able to enter the boot menu, but custom recovery just brings me back to the main menu, stable recovery does the same thing and stock recovery brings me to an android with a exclamation point in a triangle.
In fact anything I tap just brings me back to the main menu except boot and reboot.
Any ideas?

so the usual wipe and flash rom works even for earlier cm10 builds? i thought there was more than that (to install new custom rom.. flash some other files as well etc).. just making sure..
can u tell me the advantages? faster? more battery life? ........

General rulez to upgrade from CM10 24.09. to new qkernel :
1. Wipe's all data/cache/dalvik
2. install zip the newest/upgrede v4 from 27.10.
3. install gapps (all or minimal ) (the same gapps as 24.09. version)
4. do wipe's but only cache and dalvik
5. reboot
it's all enjoy

Question:
Whats the difference between 2nd boot builds and "non"2nd boot builds?

the new kernel gives as new possibility ,i can tell you technical staff ,but i use ROM before and after and i think that 2nd boot is faster and more stabile

Hi.
I'd like to upgrade to upgrade my Motorola Defy+ MB526 from Quarx CM10 24-09 (non-2ndboot) to 27.10 (2ndboot), but I'm not really sure of the steps. So I have to:
Open Stable Recovery
Wipe Cache, Dalvik and Data
Install zip from sdcard - 18.10 2ndboot build for MB526
Install zip from sdcard - update_for_18.10_v4.zip
Install zip from sdcard - gapps
Reboot
Is that right?
EDIT: Worked, done the following:
- Start Stable Recovery (of last Quarx non-2ndboot ROM)
- Backup all (Nandroid)
- Wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik cache
- install zip from sdcard -> 2ndboot ROM>100MB.zip
- install zip from sdcard -> update_for_xxxx_vx.zip
- install zip from sdcard -> GAPPS (I used PicoTTS (all))
- wipe cache
- wipe dalvik cache
- exit recovery
- shutdown
- Start Bootmenu
- shutdown
- Power on
- After first boot it rebooted but then it booted 2ndboot ROM perfectly.

Why is it that it should be shut down and restarted twice? Any particular reason?

do this:
goto recovery,
choose stable recovery>wipe data>wipe cache>advanced>wipe dalvik
than flash http://quarx2k.ru/cm10-2ndboot-nightly-defy(+)/CM10-20121018-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip
wipe cache and dalvik again
now flash http://quarx2k.ru/cm10-2ndboot-nightly-defy(+)/update_for_18.10_v4.zip
wipe cache and dalvik again.
and reboot
it should boot normaly,if not,than remove battery,and reinsert it after 10 mins,
first boot will take a little time,so dont worry.
if it boots perfectly than u can go into the recovery again and install gapps :good:

..
I normally updated CM9 to CM10 i dont wiped the data just cashes and then i updated to 2ndboot , Its like you instal a new rom from any kind , just you dont wipe the data . This worked for me....

Because you want to install the 4.3 is necessary to format data (do a factory reset) BEFORE! That can be done from TWRP or CWM.

Hi, you should at first update to latest nightly 4.1.2 in order to upgrade the recovery and then move to 4.3, both wiping data and cache before flashing each ROM.
1) Download latest 4.1.2 and 4.3 ( you find link to them in the OP posts of the rispective threads )
2) wipe cache/dalvik.
3) flash latest 4.1.2.
4) wipe cache/dalvik.
5) flash 4.3.
6) wipe cache/dalvik.
7) Reboot.
A better solution would be to wipe also "/data" (and /system) in step 4 using " defy ultimate wipe ":
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1818520.
So it would be:
1) Download latest 4.1.2 and 4.3 and defy ultimate wipe.
2) Reboot
3) Wipe cache/dalvik.
4) Flash latest 4.1.2.
5) wipe cache/dalvik.
6) Reboot
7) Reboot
7) Wipe everything (/system /data /cache /dalvik_cache) defy ultimate wipe ( DO NOT REBOOT BEFORE doing the next step )
8) Flash 4.3.
9) wipe cache/dalvik.
10) Reboot.

Got to say that I try using CM10.1 & CM10.2 in the last week,
I got the same device asyou and to tell the truth, the CM10 (android 4.1.1) is the best for our defy's!
works good, no crashes or any other problems...
If you still think of trying it - go to youtube and look for- defy install cm 10.2
take a look at some of the videos.. it will assist you.
good luck!

thanks for replys
I am using CM10.2 vor few days now, and quite satisfied.

[Guide][Steps][KITKAT] Installing cyanogenmod 11 M7 on Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100)

Well, I know there are lot of helpful guides out there on how to install cyanogenmod but not everybody gets what he's looking for. I recently searched a lot of sites, forums, and lot of xda posts for installing cyanogenmod 11 M7. And i finally found few posts that helped me.

Where are /format system and /format preload??? If you are on 4.1.2 stock you need to do a full wipe.
Flash latest philz kernel in stock recovery, then reboot into recovery again(hold 3 buttons) and flash latest Philz CWM Touch recovery(6.0.4.8!). Then do a full wipe and flash a custom rom and gapps.

I Agree with Zile.
I installed Cyano with similar steps and I finished with an useless phone with system partition full.
format system and preload are mandatory moving from stock to cyano in my opinion.

What happened with me was.. i didn't find the preload thing while making my backup.
So i missed some steps from the guide which i followed. I'll be trying it again when cm11 m8 will be out.
May be that time i can find the preload section.

Anyways... You can find gapps in the following threads :

And you might find some links on google search too.
Just be sure you download the gapps for Kitkat 4.4.x. This will avoid problems

You can link your above post for the link to the GApps section in the OP, then you'll not get other questions as to the link for GApps.... Also, as said by @Zile995, it is better if you include formatting system and preload too in your guide as not doing so may cause issues and doing so is the best way to full wipe your system for fresh flashing without issues...
And yes...Great work.... :good:

Can I boot into system after installing 03.06.2013 - PhilZ-cwm6 v5.06.1 and later install new rom?

Would any of you guys be able to help me (a rookie when it comes to this) with these Q's in my thread about CyanogenMod?
This thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/stock-rom-to-cyanogenmod-import-sms-t2903491
Btw, isn't it easiest to acquire CyanogenMod by using the CyanogenMod Installler for the i9100?

Never had this problem bud. I installed M9 in the same way but google process failures were never encountered.
I'm afraid i might not be of any use here but would suggest one thing that stick to 10.1 till u find an answer to this.
And regarding your problem..... These guys( @avirk , @banjara , @-Grift- , @Vivek_Neel , @Phil3759 ) might be able to help you out. They helped me too.

I guess it should be ok to boot into the system because you'd be installing the recovery and if the recovery is compatible with the ROM and won't give any problem then you can. But still.. always take a second opinion before you try because... even I'm a learner.
