Neogsantos, when you used the titanium bakcup, did you also backed up your system data? because you shouldn't, they aren't compatible if you update with any of the CM7.

If you backup and restored the system data, the cm7 system data would be overwritten and everything would go haywire

because I did too a couple of months ago. just try to backup "all user apps" , which is only the apps that you installed in your defy, not the original data/apps from the rom itself.

hope it helps
[Defy Android Development] neogsantos:
No... I just bkpd my games and some apps like

Opera Mini, Advanced Task Manager, Skype, VPlayer, RootExplorer, MultiTouch Tester, Transparent Proxy, Launcher EX and Swype

Now I've wiped data/cache in the 2nd init and I'll not install any app.

Let's see what happens.

But tx anyway

[Defy Android Development] neogsantos:
I'm starting to think thats no a titanium bkp problem

I'm making some tests here!

I've flashed a leaked Gingerbread sbf!

It's like a new phone... I just configured my Blur account and nothing more!

I took off my sd card and waited for a reboot! 10 minutes later the phone rebooted!

Now i connected to my PC and started logcat

Waiting for a new reboot to post the Gingerbread leaked version logcat

WiFi module has changed on cm7-110821-1618-NIGHTLY-Jordan?

I`m asking coz after 4 hours with WiFi connected it haven`t random disconnect problem like I had on cm7-110818-1913-NIGHTLY-Jordan.

Thanks Epsylon the new boot logo is the best one!
[Defy Android Development] hanu_blr:
even mine to says charged at 95%, just leave for another 20-30mins, u shd see 100%.

is it so damn hard to attach logcat files instead of inserting them into your posts?! you are ruining the thread (especially on mobile)..
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
cm7-110821-1618-NIGHTLY-Jordan... this one should not change wifi modules

but yes (in today's BOOT179-4 version), all modules are from 179-4 like previous BOOT179-4

i want to check why this one doesnt want to connect to all routers, seems related to the 4-Way Handshake which fails on openwrt Mimo routers (wpa_supplicant problem)

This version also use a new 2nd-init version, common for all motorola devices. only tested on 177 179-2 and 179-4 kernels for the moment...
[Defy Android Development] coolzarjun:
+ 1 to sore thumb after scrolling that :p
[Defy Android Development] neogsantos:
No there is not damn hard... I just didn't know that is needed

Whats your problem? It's so damn hard to have education and ask pacifically?

[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I guessed all that, a BOOT nightly updates kernel + modules after. Plus I always check the WiFi module after installing nigthlies :cool:

I don't have an OpenWRT router, so I cannot really test the wpa_supplicant, it works for my generic market routers.
[Defy Android Development] mussio:
Its a desktop I never said laptop.
[Defy Android Development] sp8y:
Just installed the latest BOOT179-4 Nightly - initial reports suggest it seems fine - runs smooth etc just like the previous but has my favoured wifi module so I didn't have to replace this.

I too only have a generic router & the BOOT179-4 wifi module has always worked well for me - better than the 179-2 module which always seemed slower to load things - so don't know if I can contribute to any testing :confused:

Had to put the Defy on charge as I installed the nightly with only 20% battery left :eek: but it all went fine :)

Oh yes like the boot logo :cool:
[Defy Android Development] teamet:
Is the 179 kernel mandatory or can I update using my 177-nordic?

Any must-haves in the new kernel?

If it aint broke...
[Defy Android Development] coolzarjun:
I also want to know about this
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Latest nightly cm7-110822-1650-BOOT179-4 is still having the random WiFi disconnection problem, last good build for me is cm7-110818-1913-NIGHTLY and I have reverted to it.
[Defy Android Development] drfakeacc:
Well, as i'm using the 3.4.2_179-002 DEBLUR CEE as a base in general and never occured any problems neither with CM7 or MIUI, which both utilize this kernel, and it is generally said to be more stable and better in terms of battery usage, there is no reason not to use it.
[Defy Android Development] coolzarjun:
-

How do I know that I'm on which kernel? ?

And how do I upgrade? ?

I use the Nordic rom as base .. which is found in the FAQ section of cm7 :)

Help :)
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
Not for me it's better with boot179-4 :confused: on my WNR2000 Wifi N and it's very fast with the 110818 it's very slow and disconnect :eek:

Very hard to solve wifi problem for all . Do you have Bayer or Soc device for camera ? It's possible because we don't have the same hardware .
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
The thing is, when I went back to the 110818 nightly, this nightly does not update the kernel and modules, so my system has the kernel and modules of the boot179-4! The problem that creates the disconnections is something else in this case, no idea what, not related to kernel or the WiFi kernel module.
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
Very hard :o

And wait for call recorder for CM7 :(
[Defy Android Development] sanktnelson:
unable to boot after low battery

Hi all,

I encountered a very odd problem this weekend: my defy using nightly 110813 ran out of battery and shut down. after that, all I would get to see - even after battery was full - would be a battery filling half the screen with the current "charge" sloshing around in it. reverting to a previous cm7 nandroid from recovery wouldn't help, neither would wiping and reflashing cm7. I had to go back to a nandroid containing the original firmware and only then could I flash cm7 again and boot. Has anybody observed a similar problem? I'm currently testing if the same happens with 7.1.0-RC0.

[Defy Android Development] vjun:
Quarx,

This ROM uses the default lockscreen management of Cyanogenmod. OK. Nice.

But I found that on the option I can choose a different wallpaper for the lockscreen, the screen ratio wasn't changed to match Defy screen. The wallpaper resolution for CM7 settings is 480x766, while Defy resolution is 480x854. With this, choosing a wallpaper makes the image to be cropped then stretched to fill the screen, causing a huge quality loss.

If you can fix this, would be awesome.

Thanks,

V.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
cm team is working on the wifi disconnection (i dont experience it here)... it is related to dhcp renewal setting (lease time) of the routers... there is a bug when it is unlimited

Good thanks!

So my suggestion http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16664158&postcount=10104 was not so foolish after all. :p

So far, I'm very pleased with boot179-4 rev#2 (http://defycm7.tanguy.tk/cm7-110822-1650-BOOT179-4-Jordan.zip). My DHCP lease is set at 2 days and haven't got any disconnect yet and speed is fine.

Thumbs up to you and the team.

Oh, I wouldn't waste a post on this subject, but since I'm here already:

I personally would vote for something else than to see "Google" on my boot screen.

I see that word often enough elsewhere. The logo of the previous boot179-4 remains my favorite. ;)
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I've looked at your suggestion (I'm no CM7 dev; so it was not intended to me but...) and the related forum thread but I don't see in which way this app is better or easier to use than the 'alogcat' application. [Ok, maybe for e-mailing it quickly or post it on Pastebin but other than that...]

110822-1650-BOOT179-4 doesn't seem to enter Deep Sleep state - phone has been screen off all night and shows in CPU Spy as running at 300Mhz with Deep Sleep as an unused state - usually (prior to 110822-1650) it would enter Deep Sleep in these conditions - nothing else in the software stack has changed (so I'm running exactly the same apps as before updating, so its not an issue with something else keeping it alive) - I'm assuming its a defect in this version of cm7?

Edit: I did a nandroid restore back to 110819-1459 and after 2-3 mins of switching the screen off and leaving it untouched Deep Sleep was activated.
[Defy Android Development] basshamster:
Problem not existing here...85% Deep Sleep...

Then you have problems with your CM7 install or you're on an older nightly build where tethering had not been implemented yet [how long ago was that anyway? 7-10 days??].

@ Rustyd: no problem here either with deepsleep on 110822BOOT179-4. During the last 7.5hours, been in deep sleep state for 68% of the time. I've installed it straight over 110723BOOT179-4 with all my apps untouched [only wiped cache and Dalvik - no data wipe].

[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Interestingly enough I noticed exactly the same issue this morning. I'm on cm7-110819-1459-NIGHTLY.

The battery was almost empty after only about 12 hours and CPU Spy reported no time in deep sleep mode. This phone doesn't have an activated sim card in it, so usually the battery lasts easily 3 or 4 days with minimal use.

I also didn't change anything software wise. The only thing I did was have a look at the CPU Overclock settings in the bootmenu.

Note that I didn't change anything at all, just looked at it.

Well ... after invoking bootmenu - overclock settings again, this time selecting Save (without any changes beeing made), all is back to normal.

CPU Spy confirms the phone goes into deep sleep mode.

Weird...
[Defy Android Development] Scotty83:
is there any other diffrence between the normal nighly and boot179 apart from the chnaging the boot.img(frankly doest know what it actually mean) so which one i should use currently on 110817 boot179 nightly

I'm on cm7-110822-1650-BOOT179-4 and the video recording is fine there. I also tested 110821 and it's fine there also. That's on a green lense/soc defy.

However, I also have a red/bayer defy and here the video recording is very laggy unfortunately.

Are you sure you have a soc device :)
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Yeah I've seen that has been going on for you for a while...

Did some testing myself just now; none of the problems you've reported.

The radio stops when I unplug my headsets [see 1st pic attached for the toast popup saying so]. It pauses on ingoing or outgoing calls and resumes afterwards [see 2nd pic showing icon in notification bar]. Never had problem switching from backgroung to foreground.

Sorry if this doesn't help you much though...just thought I'd share my testing on this with you. And I'm sure that you've tried the standard 'wipe application's cache' trick...

One question: exactly who are you calling MoFo ??:confused: did you mean IMHO?

[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Relax guys, MoFo is an comic jargon insult used in some movies by gangsta but is not intended to anyone but to the situation.

Al, believe me I'm a really hard user of FM Radio so I was put in many situations. Those instability are not permanently but manifest often (at least for me and other guys). Yes, sometimes if I unplug the headset all is all right, but just sometimes.

The radio is buggy, that's a fact. I posted a bug here and it can be easily duplicate (it doesn't happens every time but often).

Exactly the same FM Radio bug is in MIUI. I think is just an restyled interface with no RDS but same code source except FM Radio module. Conneted Music Player is more stable (reporting at in call bug and headset bug) but it doesn't save presets after restart.

Nevermind...

I just recorded a shorter one, five second clicp, and it worked....

How to?

The MS-DOS prompt window crops the content!

How can I grab a full logCat?

Tx in advance
[Defy Android Development] mineIsAlreadyTaken:
the easiest way is to redirect the screen output to a file:

in your adb dos prompt, type adb logcat > logcat.txt

this creates a file called logcat.txt in your adb directory (the one where you run adb.exe from)

you stop the output the same way as if the text was being output on screen (ctrl-break)
[Defy Android Development] xift:
If you normally type "adb logcat" into the command line.

Try "adb logcat > log.txt". This will write all the output into a file called log.txt.
[Defy Android Development] neogsantos:
All right, tx guys

Now I'm starting to logcat my phone

Hopefully it will grab the problem!!!
