what is happening with auto brightness?

it was fine on RC0, and the nightlies before RC1 v2

i am using 11 July 2011, 20:37 PM nightly.

it so often to change its brightness,

even on stable light environment.

it just weird, it dims, and then go normal, dims again, normal again.. :)

also wifi indicator gets weird,

it only 30 cm far to router, but it shows low signal reception (only 1 bar).

after reconect, it shows the correct one. but often change its strength indicator.

and by the way how to activate touch-to-focus on camera?

mine is green lense.

i can't do it..
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Can somebody PLEASE help me with my Wi-Fi problems? It's the 3rd or 4th time I'm asking and I keep being ignored..

I need to know, please, how I can replace the RC0 'tiwlan_drv.ko' with my RC1 v2 'tiwlan_drv.ko', can somebody help me?

Thanks.
[Defy Android Development] wout1:
This is what I did:

Rename the current one (just add .old)

Copy the new one

Set the permissions and owner etc.

Reboot.
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Using Root Explorer, it tells me I have no permissions of changing it's name because it's a read-only file.
[Defy Android Development] wout1:
You have to mount the partition as "write"
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Oh [:P]. Alright, did that, copied the RC0 file too, what permissions I need to put?
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Same as every file in that map
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
LOL, sorry for being such a newbie :P

I did that, now rebooting, I hope it'll work after that.

Thank you guys!

Edit: Well, it still doesn't work.. it doesn't find any network around..

What should I do?
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Try the latest nightly it should have an improwed wifi.
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Do I need to install the nightlies before in order to install the latest?

And do I need to do any wiping before installing?
[Defy Android Development] efpob:
I flashed RC1v2 and still got the same

[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Just cache and dalvik. And you can install a nightly sraight from any version, but if you are coming from an old version wipe data too. Dowload todays nightly from us mirror
[Defy Android Development] efpob:
no, just install the latest version

follow the instructions in the CM7 FAQ thread
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Alright, thank you guys. and vick33, I have the latest version, RC1 v2.

and efpob, I know how to install from recovery :)
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Wiped cache, wiped dalvik cache, installed the latest nightly, and guess what?! still not working.. damn.

What options are left? that do not include wiping data.. I want to try all the options before I'm wiping data..
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
From RC1v2 to nightly should work without data wipe. But it might help if you elaborate on the "not working" part.... rolleyes

OK, I guess that you mean wifi not the nightly...

Mmm! tricky one... try chaging stuff on the router side maybe. Try turning ssid broadcast off then on again, change wifi channel used, try changing the encrytion type (if any) and try to change the wep/wap, b instead of g...

Blackscreen

i had the weirdest problem this morning. I was using the 07.10 nightly and, as usual, had slept with "sleep like a droid" running. In the morning the alarm went off, I checked, dismissed and the screen turned off normally. When I tried to turn the screen back on, only the soft buttons would light up.

I tried rebooting the phone(via removing battery, cause it would respond to the power button). It showed Motorola's M, Cyanogen's logo and when it vibrated the screen went off again.

I then rebooted it again, with the same outcome. Then I rebooted in recovery, cleared cache, still the same problem. Flashed a new nightly, same problem.

I had to clear data to get it back.

Couldn't reproduced it, but it was REALLY weird.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
In a recent post, I've reported having very similar problem with July 10th nightly. My little finger tells me that it had something to do with the max10 multi-touch settings. That was changed and lowered in July 11th nightly. So I beleive you might be OK now...

@ Epsylon3: maybe the 110710 nightly should be removed from the index list ? ?
[Defy Android Development] ctz556:
I think not.
[Defy Android Development] lionheartpl:
Thanks a lot for the reply, Al. You might be right. I don't see any other major modifications to the code that could cause something similar. truth be told it was a "one time only" occurrence, but it scared the c**p out of me 'til I saw the screen back on during boot.

Well, I was looking for a little "push" to reinstall nordic, RC V2 and new nightlies, now I have it. Too bad I lost some data on the way.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:

Anyone can extract the "Blur Home Launcher" of a SBF or a nandroid backup,plz???

Thanks.
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
Blur launcher cannot be integrated because it depends on a lot of blur services and it's quite hard to port it. If you like that launcher so much, maybe you should stick to stock Froyo...it's your call.

[Defy Android Development] zencoran:
anyone have luck with this theme? https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bsthemes.theme.linear according to the android market its not compatible with the defy. Yet it works with theme chooser and cm7. i really wanna download it! if anyone has it, can u upload the installer file/apk i mean its supposed to be a free app anyway. i emailed the developer and no reply :( Also, whats the correct way to install a fresh install of cm7 nightly? i need to reflash sbf. is it rc0, then rc1, then latest nightly?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
No longer matters since there is an even newer nightly in the US mirror :cool:

[Defy Android Development] blozzy:
stucks at Moto Logo after succesful flash plz help

hi Folks,

i have successfully flashed RC1v2, all has worked properly. But the the market has failed to open, so I have tried to wipe the cache, rebooted again and now the device stucks at the moto logo. Have made the steps from FAQ 5) factory default / wipe, same failure. what can I do , plz help ?
[Defy Android Development] Kiristiba:
hi, even though this is a dev thread, where did you do the cache wipe?

after installing cm7 don't use the stock recovery, only the custom recovery.

So, go into bootmenu -> recovery -> latest recovery -> wipe cache -> reboot

if you have problems with single applications, try deleting the apps data

in the app managing menu

I think this depends on the music app you are using, doesn't it?

greetings :)
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Lockscreen Bug or?

I use many time Defy like a phone, so I make calls. But sometimes I observed that after I make a call and then I simple close it (because the conversation is over), the Lockscreen is activated. It is strange because I made that call so the Lockscreen should be deactivated after the call is ended.

The issue is not manifested always.

Is it a bug or is it something I miss?
[Defy Android Development] mastaful:
Theres quite a few apps that dont show up in the market, that used to in older builds..... not sure why,

HBOGO is one that i miss
[Defy Android Development] mrfab14163:
Hey there.

First of all I'd like to thank Quarx for his work again. This is just awesome.

I hope nobody has asked this before, but would it be possible to implement a feature like the Backlighnotification on the Galacy S?

(Backlightnotifiction means that the softtouch buttons on the bottom (home etc.) will light up when you missed a call for instance)

Thanks for any help
[Defy Android Development] sp8y:
I've never seen the feature you describe but is it a similar idea to the LED notification in CM7 & that is highly configurable & can be set up to flash a different colour for any given notification eg I have mine to flash blue for a gmail message, green for a SMS message & red for a missed call.
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
WIFI

Hello

Just test with Livebox for the moment WPA2 and WIFI with :http://defycm7.tanguy.tk/cm7-110713-0601-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip seem very very good now :D speed is good now !

Thanks

I test tonight with WNR200 WIFI N.
[Defy Android Development] ehsan_yany:
how could you do that!? its great!! please tell us how you did that? thanks:)
[Defy Android Development] Rhyr:
Some friends noticed me the sending of calls/sms that i've never received.

I haven't see directly the problem, all calls/SMS that l've sent was received with success...

Any idea?

[Defy Android Development] NickChaplin:
OK good news i have been running the test build for 15 hours on battery and it is still at 72% and that is the end of the day for me. MUCH better than moto roms. :D

Quarx any files or info you need let me know, more than happy to help.
[Defy Android Development] geecko:
Have you O/C'd ? What's your vsel ? Thanks :)
[Defy Android Development] viper.:
Should i wait for next release or beta2 is good enough for daily use ? :confused:

Yesterday I installed Beta 2.

With Beta 1 the App Drawer was okay, but with Beta 2 the App Drawer seems to be laggy. Maby there are some improvement necessary !? (Open GL Issues?)

CM 7 suggestion:

-if possible add overclock feature inside Settings > CM Settings > Performance > CPU Settings

add 2 more freq. 1000MHz and 1200Mhz

cool,your are the best,now I can use this rom!!!

Is ist possible to integrate "WLAN with Proxy" settings, like in the Moto-Froyo-Roms ?

(Some CM-ROMs have WLAN with PRoxy, too)
[Defy Android Development] Kiristiba:
LOL, did you ever looked in the settings menu of cm7?

cm7 settings -> Userinterface -> LED Notifications -> Miscellaneous

greetings
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Be aware that with some nightlies, accessing that menu make the led go crazy when there is a notification instead of the one that the user set. I mean that the led will continuously light circling the colors.

So it seems that there are some problem left with camera, wi-fi, and some minor bugs like the LED or Lokscreen ones.

I hope that the testing will not last to much until the next Defy will be announced. :D

The camera extra-features are not so important for me, as a green lens Defy user. What I need is performance and stability of the system (camera, ringtone, wifi, led notification, lockscreen, no battery drain issue etc.)

One more time, thanks for your work (Quarks, Tanguy, Maniac).
[Defy Android Development] ctz556:
I tested this nightly version,but wifi not improve.
[Defy Android Development] marci9464:
I have the latest nightly (11.07.11) and i love it!!!

Thanks to Quarx!

But I have problems with camera and contacts!!!

1. Camera is doing things like takes some pictures. 1 minutes after the 1 picture taken it freezes. I can turn off just by taking out the battery and the bigest problem is that after this action those pictures are nowhere or falid to display... yesterday i had it with a video also :S :S :S

The contacts is just that i had stock 2.1de than 2.2.2 De and there in contacts i can link facebook contacts with google or only phone (sim) contacts! and i really loved that option i also dont really like the new dialer :S so is there a way to get stock 2.2.2's dialer, contacts app in cm7? or is it possible to do a link option in thenext nightly?
[Defy Android Development] Kaffeekranz:
I've had some problems with the gallery3d for some time now. (at least since RC1 iirc)

It will only show me freshly taken pictures after a reboot.

Did anyone experience similar issues?
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
No way to use the stock dialer. For the contacts linking, install the Facebook app, it can sync with your contacts.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I guess it's true what they say, one man's win is another one's loss. I completely detest and hate the stock dialer, I prefer the AOSP one, which the CM7 has with just more tweaks available.
[Defy Android Development] kvikram:
How do I install nightly over RC1v2? Should I do a data/cache wipe or not?
[Defy Android Development] marci9464:
ok i know it but i have a cotact with XY name and facebook account link and these things and the other under it with the same name and just the number that was in my sim. in stock we can link them and it will be 1. if the name is the same automatically if not we can choose link profile > choose the other and thats it...
[Defy Android Development] Kiristiba:
No, it is not possible and will not be, except google includes the feature itself.

You have to use Motorola Roms. it's a special Feature made by them.

[Defy Android Development] mrfab14163:
Well, yes, but that is just the notifications for the build-in LED. I was talking about notifications for the soft-touch keys on the bottom of the phone. As far as I know those can't flash or light in different colors, but the are more noticable then the little LED is.
[Defy Android Development] 57op:
No, you don't!

Hi,

your work is amazing!

Could you port the rotation animation from the official 2.3 roms?

Here is how it looks: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DgPdSKLAPGc Second 30.

Thanks,

Michael
[Defy Android Development] Cocolopes:
I dont know this...but is there a animation folder in official 2.3 rom?...maybe someone can extrat that and MAYBE we can use it in a theme or something...

Its just a guess....or an idea....
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
a feature from the future ^^
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
Epsylon3, soon?

THANKS :D
[Defy Android Development] basshamster:
It is possible to manually link Facebook contacts. Just go into the contact, hit "edit" and press the options button, there you have the option to link contacts from different accounts, also Facebook.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
i need to search, this feature is from the past indeed ^^

http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=1002
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Epsylon3 does going official stopped somewhere:-) I think your server will die soon if the nightly's does not move to cyanogenmod server:-) I dont see any other good in it maybe the rommanager, but it would be good news after all we are more than the nexus one users:-)
[Defy Android Development] xift:
I think that is not entirely true. They dropped "a" rotation animation in eclair (That one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OSMGhycv_TM). And added a new one in some new releases of gingerbread.

So better search new code than old.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
right... my server handle it... but has problems with china overload ;)

We work faster than cyanogen... but slowly we get features integrated in cyanogen (thanks to maniac for java stuff)

im working on the "reboot recovery" feature, it is one of the things required to be compatible with rommanager...

[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
After all I decided to wipe data and install it all from the beginning, I installed the latest nightly and it's just great! the Wi-Fi works perfectly, first time since I first used CM7 :)

BUT, there's a problem with the market.. when I first loaded the phone after recovery it started automatically, as always, to download all the applications, after like 30-40 applications installed, it started to give me errors, "download was unsuccessful", since then, I can't download anything from the market...

Clear cache of the market didn't help, I have no idea what else I can do... do you?

Thanks.
[Defy Android Development] teamet:
+1

this is really a cool feature!
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
ok, new nighly cm7-110714-0040-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip

official reboot submenu is restored to allow "reboot to recovery"

the "bootloader" option doesn't works for the moment and will reboot normally

There is still a delay with blue led to intercept reboot, but can save a reboot if you dont care ;)

adhoc

I know this has been previously discussed in this topic but I think something is changed in those 200+ pages between the last mention of it.

Is there a way to enable adhoc networks connectivity as a default feature? If not, what can I do to get it working?

I've tried editing tiwlan.ini wifiadhoc= 0 to 1. But i still can't connect to my network. It hangs at "getting ip address".

is there something else i'm missing?

thanks in advance and sorry to bring it up again if it has been answered before.
[Defy Android Development] Percz:
Is the aim here to get the Defy to be officially supported in the upstream Cyanogen releases, or to be able to change and customize the upstream's into a Defy fork?

Just wondering where the focus needs to be.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Yo!

So, CM7 is overly popular in China or what? What is that 'China overload' that Epsylon3 is talking about?

Well, after my bad experience with July 11th nightly (irresponsive phone after display off - see one of my previous post), reading the encouraging words about the wifi being 'better than ever' I've decided to give July 13th nightly a try.

What a deception and a desastrous one, that was:

1st: I did not see any real improvement regarding the wifi: I don't have big issues with it except for the lack of speed and some occasional glitches - but that's fine.

2nd: issue about my July 11th problem is still there: 3 times in a row, I had to pull battery in order to revive and boot my phone. Is this due to "Screen Off and Lock" app??? I don't know: I've never had problem with that before on CM7. All that apk does is require a phone admin permission for turning the screen off...

I tried to remove the ADW swipe up gesture for that apk (and uninstalled it) and I didn't have the problem--> but I have to say that the testing did not last much longer...keep reading:

3rd: whenever I wake up the display using the volume rocker button, I now hear the very annoying (and loud) sound we get when changing the ringer volume.

4th and worst issue observed in that 20-30 minutes of testing: multi-touch function. I don't use adb shell and its desmeg (never tried and don't know how yet) but I do use 'Process Monitor Widget' (changed to a new apk name now, I believe) to check for errors and if I clear the logcat and do this: quickly press and hold (just for 1 sec) 3 fingers on the screen (tap,tap, tap release),

my logcat gets filled with 5 or 6 pages of errors regarding multi-touch [see pic attached].

5th [for Maniac]: the Sim Toolkit is still displayed in Chinese with this nightly; in fact, the first time issue #2 above happened, it was when I press the STK icon: boom everything goes off and can't revive the phone unless battery pull. After I removed the screen off apk, the STK would load (just pure luck? idk), but after always shows a strange screen flashing when opening. So if your local language grabbing hook was included in 110713-0601, it's no luck on that. Otherwise, in the light of all I wrote here, I'm not sure when I will be testing another nightly - for now anyway...

One good news to finish: the pictures timestamp problem I have reported before was really (like I thought) linked to the QuickPic apk (a "Gallery" alternative). In there latest update, they state a fix on EXIF data showing wrong time fixed and it is 'kindda' fixed: I now see two timestamps but 1 of them is good...

So it's been a bad couple of days with nightlies...:(

Back to RC1 ...again!

Cheers.

How do i use the speed dialer ? Is there even one in cm7?

not on default, Hocevar.

you could try myDialer or DialerOne from market.

You mean the blur contact app?....I think you cant...
[Defy Android Development] tecjam:
I use the Quickpic gallery as an alternative - I can't stand the 3d gallery personally.

Now, i'm not sure if it's a problem with CM7 or the quickpic.apk, but sharing pictures to picasa does not work via wifi. They are stuck in the upload queue and i keep getting network errors even though the phone is online? I'm going to try a newer nightly to see if it's fixed then, but maybe someone else who uses quickpic and picasa can also give it a shot.:)
