just use cwm backup and restore it will backup all ur data/boot/system, etc...but remember that if u still have the stock 2gb sd card u might not have enough space..so i suggest to remove ur media coz the backup is around 700 MB with 50+ apps installed

after that u simply wipe data/cache...dalvik cache and flash cm7 latest boot from 110817+gapps and then if u want u can flash the latest nightly from yesterday

LE: to port the apps from 1 rom to the other... i use my backup pro..it`s free on the market and more easy to use than titanium
[Defy Android Development] russtyd:
I personally don't have issues with the "stock" wifi module, but there seem to be a set who do (the vocal "minority", or vocal "majority"?) - guess the question is how do we establish whether its a few (with certain routers for example) who always should swap the module, or the majority and it should actually be the default? I'm sure the devs have good reasons why its not the default wifi module?

For example, I don't have issues, haven't replaced the tiwlan_drv.ko and have no idea if its better/worse/the same....

Also, could someone make a cwm patch/script for replacing (and restoring) the module, which could go on page 1? Might stop the regular "my wifi's crap" posts :)
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
The WiFi issues are not limited to the module unfortunately. With the cm7-110819-1459-NIGHTLY (latest when I type this) I get random disconnections even with the 179-2 wifi module. Had to revert to the previous nightly for now. The problem is rather complex.
[Defy Android Development] cy_lee96:
Oh thanks... I think I would rather use Titanium Backup Pro to backup.

btw, is the latest nightly builds (yesterday) the best rom so far :)? If not, which one is the best or most stable? Thx again :)
[Defy Android Development] russtyd:
Have we even pinned down what connection is having the issue? I only use 54g, not 'n'.... so maybe the 'g' bit is fine and the 'n' bit is broken? I'm on 110819-1459 and don't SEEM to have any issues - obviously after about 20 mins of testing its not that conclusive but it seems as stable as any other build to me..... I can't recall any discussion here (and I think I've read every post since it started) that's clarified that point even (of course, I could be wrong and 750 posts earlier it was clarified, just my memory is poor!).
[Defy Android Development] Deonix:
It's indeed complicated. My router for example is bad, i test it with an iPhone and it still disconnects. Before i buy a new -rather expensive wifi router i try different versions from nightlyies. Some don't work at all some disconnect a lot. I just try to find a balance to download data for a game for ex. But it's rooter related. In a park Wifi Hotspot worked very very fast no disconnect.

I use Dlink DI-524 stay away from it.

Sent from my CM7 Defy
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Tested a lot more than 20 mins, I suspect that it disconnects when the CPU is under load, but even then it's more random. I have a G router at work and an N at home, I have the same behavior on both.

[Defy Android Development] gkai:
I just had a strange behavior with one of the latest nightly (cm7-110817-1717-BOOT179-Jordan.zip), with about 900 Mb of space misteriously dissapearing from /data partiton. Go to this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1226821 for more details, but it seems that there was some slight corruption of the fs in the /data partition

Here is the dmesg section where this partition is mounted:

kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds

<6>[ 14.269866] EXT3 FS on mmcblk1p25, internal journal

<7>[ 14.271728] ext3_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 67672

<7>[ 14.273345] ext3_orphan_cleanup: deleting unreferenced inode 67828

<6>[ 14.523406] EXT3-fs: mmcblk1p25: 2 orphan inodes deleted

<6>[ 14.523529] EXT3-fs: recovery complete.

<6>[ 14.830291] EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.

<4>[ 14.863281] EXT3-fs warning: maximal mount count reached, running e2fsck is recommended

It seems that there was some minor cleaning, but I never had 900 Mb gone missing like this in ext3 before, for 2 orphaned inodes....So it seems strange...Should I worry about /data partition being corrupted or physically damaged? Can I run e2fsck in adb shell?

It also reminds me the occasional complaints about having only 128 Mb available in internal memory after installing CM7. Is it linked?

[additional info] When checking CPU Spy, I saw that it has completely bogus statistics, while before the reboot it was ok. I suspect that the orphan inodes where linked to CPU spy logs of cpu frequency usage...so I have de-installed this app and will be careful in the future about using it - the problem in data partition did occur the hours after I installed CPU spy and, together with the bogus stat after the partition cleanup at reboot, it is a little bit too much coincidence...

had no issues so far. only problem is that the auto-brightness updates itself on every unlock (in my experience), so when i go from a dark place outside to the sunlight, i have to unlock the device twice to be able to see the screen properly...
[Defy Android Development] Ph1b:
I'm on 110808 nightly.

When running the program "MultiTouch Visualizer 2", it is still limited to 2 fingers.
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
yeah, it doesnt work for me either by default (nightlies ive tried: 0729, 0731, 0808, 0814). use 'defy multitouch enabler' from market!
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
By default the multitouch module is not loaded although it is included, there are some bugs with it so the devs left it inactive.
[Defy Android Development] peetr_:
I have also filtering with 10s for window lenght, 2s sample interval and enabled light decrease with 0% hysteresis, then it's fine.
[Defy Android Development] labsin:
The last two options in the auto-brightness menu are to change brightness automatic. Allow light decrease is the option to enable and hysteresis is the percentage the values overlap so it changes less frequent.

I have successfully build the rom on the 16th.

Today I did a repo sync and on brunch jordan I get the following error:

No such item in brunch menu. Try 'breakfast'

I even tried in breakfast to select cyanogen_jordan-eng, but get the same result.

Seems that I have missed an important step?

Hi, you can enable it on the file /system/build.prop in the phone memory (not sdcard). Look for multitouch enabler string and change it from 2 to 10 or whatever you prefer.

Cheers!

I have just flashed the "cm7-110817-1717-BOOT179-Jordan.zip" and I found the "lowest brightness" I could set was still relatively bright, I mean comparing with MIUI/ WajkIUI. Could I do anything to make the brightness as dim as possible, so that more battery can be saved. Thanks :)
[Defy Android Development] sp8y:
Thanks for the guide []AL[] :)

So I had a bit spare time today & decided to have a mess about & reflashed the latest BOOT179, replaced the "tiwlan_drv.ko from my favoured BOOT179-4 & then flashed the 110818-1913 nightly that I was previously running.

Wifi works great for me now on the latest BOOT179 nightly so think I'll just keep on doing this if needed :)
[Defy Android Development] hanu_blr:
Am using 110808 nightly image, the lowest brightness is still bright compare to stock 2.2.2 brightness! And BMW shows around 30ma while the screen is in off mode. guess this shd be less than 10ma while sleeping.
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
have you tried settings/cm settings/display/auto brightness/edit other levels?
[Defy Android Development] Scotty83:
any hep guys:(
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
it usually takes a couple of minutes to boot up for the first time, did you wait enough?
[Defy Android Development] cy_lee96:
oh yeah it works. I tried "1" and it turned black LOL. Thanks so much
[Defy Android Development] hanu_blr:
Edit dim levels can make the screen brightness less, After setting it, enable auto brightness and disable it to see the dimness to take effect.

try it
[Defy Android Development] cy_lee96:
btw wanna ask some methods to minimize the battery drain. I found the battery life of CM7 was relatively shorter than other roms, thanks again ;)
[Defy Android Development] kevin_diu:
other roms means WIUI and stock rom? :eek:
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
deleting battery stats (either with the app 'battery calibration' or from cwm advanced), undervolting, setting the up_threshold high, minimizing the number of running apps (remove unused apps), setting auto brightness levels, using 2G instead of 3g (huge difference), and other little tweaks... heard that setting the wifi policy to 'never sleep' drains the battery less than to set it to 'sleep when the screen is off'.
[Defy Android Development] Scotty83:
well the CM7 logo hangs after completeing few circles and than it starts again with a flash and again after few circles it repeat the exact same process again.
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Do you have your own manifest or are you using the CyanogenDefy one? The motorola/common repo was added to the CyanogenMod manifest today, those changes need to be merged into whatever manifest you're using.

If it don't work, install the last n nightly.
[Defy Android Development] businessman9:
but from size & edit time they seem the same ?!
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
You`re right but worked for me.

Since WiFi random disconnect starts, I changed channel of 3 Wireless router and set to work on g mode only coz was mixed n/b/g mode (home one and office that we have 2 WiFi router) and seems ok, but when disconnect and reconnect sometimes device can`t find signal.

Yesterday I changed WiFi module and make a 4 hours test with WiFi Analizer app turn on and off WiFi, rebooting device and setting to turn WiFi off when screen turns off.

BTW, come back routers settings to work with mixed n/b/g and today I had no disconnect problems.

Sorry for my bad english, but I hope you guys can undestand.

Can someone please help me? I'm getting annoyed

It's been a while that my phone is in a strange behavior since I've installed this

cm7-110813-2132-NIGHTLY-Jordan nightly version

It reboots every 5 or 10 minutes. Sometimes it last 30 or 40 minutes but it REBOOTS

I can't help it, thought it was CM7 so I flashed froyo just to test.

First I used a brazilian retail sbf version. But it was still rebooting.

Tryed the NORDIC sbf version but it is still the same

Please what do I need to do?

note 1: For all the flashed sbfs I've wiped all data/cache

note 2: While I was writing this post my phone rebooted 2 times :'(
