@Quarx

with beta 4 the flash video playback was buttery smooth up to 480p, with 4.1 is is back to the under 10 fps, as it was under stock 2.1. I dontknow it is because you disabled the aac hardvare acceleration or some codec but if you can reapair the bugs in your codecs, i have realy enjoyed the smooth flash videos. Only aGPS and cm will hit RC:-) Nice
[Defy Android Development] sukiyaki:
excuse me, I know maybe is a stupid question but, how can I install update.zip?

should i install clockwork recovery?

I use cm7 beta 4.1

thanks.
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
if you have installed cm you should have the bootmenu. When starting the phone if the blue led lits up press down, then select enter custom recovery then install the zip:-) The same way you installed CM7
[Defy Android Development] alexandre.cgd:
do not understand the red LED, when lit clear the screen is turned
[Defy Android Development] sukiyaki:
thank you very much!!! :D
[Defy Android Development] danielck78:
There is problem with the sensor. I try it out using the app flip silence. It silence the phone without me flipping, but when i flip it the phone rings. I think it's sensor upside down. Tried with a few game and it's the same.
[Defy Android Development] Ph1b:
Right, but the widget is not in the notification-bar. The point is, the other smartphones normally don't use the LED, i guess.
[Defy Android Development] terenchan:
Hey all,

Did u guys got problems with talking quality with this rom?

My friends keep complaining for.my background noise.

I hv tried talked via the back Mic, n the problems gone.

Feel like the mic settings hv reversed.

Besides, everything runs very smooth.

PS : I'm in Hong Kong n using the Asia defy

In his first post Quarx stated that the next version of CM will update to 2.3.4 anyways, so let's hope this helps :)
[Defy Android Development] zjfgavin:
This ROM is nearly perfect now,very good job,Quarx.

The MIUI development team will publish a beta ROM for defy in this week.

It's a very good news and really thanks for your job.

Without your hard working,we will never have CM7 and MIUI,Thanks!
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
take a look at the first page
[Defy Android Development] pl4cid:

I test with my phone and no problem with base rom 3.4.2-177-05 and i know a men who test with 3.4.3-11 base rom .

I don't understand probably WIPE Cache and Dalvik Cache help .

Sorry if don't work for you .
[Defy Android Development] MisterWB:
On my side I applyed update2.zip sucessfully. No pb during boot.

I'm on base rom 3.4.2-177 (nordic) too.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I have the same problem, WiFi has poor reception, have disconnects when I move out of my room. Somehow the WiFi is not sensitive enough, drops connection too easily.
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
I flashed the ROM now, rebooted and it worked fine, then I got into recovery again, installed the gapps zip file, tried to reboot again, and it just doesn't turn on, it get stuck on the Motorola logo... what can I do?

I tried wiping data and cache and still doesn't work..
[Defy Android Development] businessman9:
i flash gapps right after rom without rebooting,

maybe you could wipe and do that?
[Defy Android Development] alberson:
I've installes mick711's update2 and my compass is not confused anymore. I'm using 4.1 version. FM radio now works after patch and it seems that my auto brightness is back working.

No Wi-Fi problems here, so far.
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
I had PaYs's rom before this one.

And I can't do that because the device just doesn't load. I can only get to the stock recovery.. there I wiped data and cache, tried to reboot again and it still doesn't load.

Maybe I should've flashed gapps right after the rom like you did, but that's too late.. now I need to find solutions.
[Defy Android Development] Pq2son2:
Hi! where did you find this information?!??! :confused: Lol this is a great new too!!!:rolleyes: I wish try MIUI on my defy!
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Only solution I can think, flash FULL sbf, then Wipe from stock recovery. Then try again with CM7, gapps must be flashed immediately after CM7, must not reboot first.
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Alright :)

Thank you very much.
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
Android 2.3.4 is so awesome. Thanks Quarx
[Defy Android Development] Bendary:
Just to be clear beta 4.1 has android 2.3.4 or 2.3.3 ?
[Defy Android Development] gubshi:
It has 2.3.3 at the moment, go to your settings and then info ;)

I guess 2.3.4 is planned for the next update
[Defy Android Development] alberson:
2.3.3 I was trying to upload a system image but it said the format was invalid.
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
So excited for the next beta.
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
After fix problems updating to 2.3.4:

-USB icon now 4g:D

-Wifi cant connect.

I will upload a new beta...
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
lol, let Quarx do his homework, he has a university to attend too!

That damn a-GPS is the only thing that is not working and annoys me, but I hope it will be fixed eventually. In the cyanogenmod site I saw that many other devices had or have GPS issues too.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
LOL, and 2.3.4 is a minor update theoretically! WiFi not working is very bad.
[Defy Android Development] alberson:
Thats great news! (the update for 2.3.4)

But 2.3.4 will have to wait. No wi-fi... can't live without wi-fi! :o
[Defy Android Development] andyrubin1:
Is call recording in this...? THX. :D
[Defy Android Development] racca:
i wasn't very happy about how it installs, well, not being able to install it may or may not have played a big part :D

so i created my own heavily modified version just to play around (not shared here, and not the purpose here)

now i'm sharing a template and an example (b4.1), hoping we can have a better flashable zip in the future.

the main goal is to get rid of the tar file so that it can be easily edited,

secondary goal is to get rid of the bootmenu altogether (it can be completely disabled, you can still access it should you choose to)

here's the template with instructions (8 very short '_read.txt' inside)

http://mir.cr/1I4KCVLZ

and an example (only tested once)

[Defy Android Development] HomerSimpson07:
what are the advantages of your version? cause i think that Quarx' version is very easy to install, i don't see how it could be improved
[Defy Android Development] Bendary:
2.3.4, wifi and 720p recording (I have red lense) are just the main things missing for me to install it, but really awesome work quarx :)

[Defy Android Development] sunoldman:
@racca

By using bootmenu, we can change rom more easily. I don't think it's nessary to remove it just because it's someone else's work and u r unhappy with it.
[Defy Android Development] tisri:
I have'nt seen these bugs in the beta 4.1, but I think you wrote about the 2.3.4
[Defy Android Development] je198ß:
You have to install CM7 first. As you can read on your cm-link

"1 - Download Mod

2 - Reboot Recovery

3 - Install Cyanogenmod 7.X.X

4 - Install Mod

5 - Reboot"

I think this zip-file can be installed by using Recovery Menu.
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
Because we have 2.3.3
[Defy Android Development] alberson:
@Quarx

This new update is the old 4.1 + FM radio and Sensors update?
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
Read the first page, there is also Android 2.3.4 and I am sure other things will be added.
[Defy Android Development] :
cool android 2.3.4!! 4g??? can the moto defy use 4g?
[Defy Android Development] George Jetson:
of course not.4g is about the different hardware.quarx talked about usb icon has bug.
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
have you this bug ?

In Tweak setting we can disable for tablet lockscreen but work for defy, when i reboot phone i can't see screen for input SIM code. So SIM is blocked for input SIM code it's necessary to enable lockscreen and reboot.

Someone with red camera can try LibOMX_Core.so http://ge.tt/4JuUdSd?c on beta 4.1?

Check whether to work photos and a video camera.

This library allows you to watch 720p and video acceleration in flash, but there may be problems with the red camera.

2.3.4 is minor update.
[Defy Android Development] lololololol:

I would test that.

If something doesnt work,

watched a 720p vid no crash or anything but vid way slower than audio...

youtube hd is quite accurate.

Got red lense^^

Did a logfile maybe it helps^^

Will change back to old .so file and try to compare.

If i recognize any difference i will tell;)

Is there are any chances to we get a Blur addon to CM7, like Pays rom have?

Because all my contacts are in the Blur accounts, and with CM7 i lost all my contacts; i can sync with Facebook contacts, but can't edit then, can't even put a simple phone number on the FB contacts, and all my SIM contacts too get lost.

Thanks, great work
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Blur on CM7? Not a chance, Blur is proprietary and not open source. Only way to get back your Blur contacts is to flash a Blur Rom, export all contacts in csv or vcards and then convert them to Google Contacts.

Don't use crap like Blur or anything proprietary.
[Defy Android Development] Dodge93:
TouchWiz (worst) < Blur < Sense

To use a own Layout and theme is better than all the other surfaces - thats the one of the ideas from Cyanogen ;)

hope i can help.

720p is laggy though^^
[Defy Android Development] rowanseymour:
Thanks for making my Defy cool again... so nice to have an up-to-date 100% blur-free rom.

It does seem my wi-fi is broke though. It definitely worked right after I flashed this rom, but now it can't even see networks.
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
The new libOMX_Core.so is realy good with green lens. The camera is working the recordings are not choppy anymore flash videos are way faster than on stock 2.2. It plays the serenity 720p mp4 (http://www.h264info.com/?page_id=20 )but that is still choppy(it can be played with droid 2 stock without any problem)

Cm7 Nandroid?

So I've been pretty busy lately and have not had time to follow the updates of this ROM. So therefore I am still on the beta 2 release of Quarx's CM7. I've loved using it so far but I do want to update to the latest one out. My question is will backing up my current setup as a nandroid, upgrading the beta 4.1 then restoring the data from the nandroid work the same for CM7 as any regular rom? Has anyone tried using nandroids with this?

[Defy Android Development] zzj0402:
Just a stealer copy n' paste from this rom.

This is a cheap action in claiming that "a developer from MIUI" since the original dev is CM and other ones who deved them.Everyone should throw eggs n veges to them.

[Defy Android Development] Pekezu:
I think folders aren't working. You can do folder - sure. You can even throw icons inside. But after restart opening the folder is le impossible.
[Defy Android Development] racca:
So in your opinion, either Quartx's CM7 should be a "stealer copy n' paste" or Quartx shouldn't be called a developer. -- It's ridiculous either way.

Do I have to remind you MIUI is but a MOD? they DO have features (as well as their code base) not present in other mods.

As for their source code, they have their rights not to publish it, as do Cyanogen (not the kernel) or Quartx. There's absolutely nothing you can do about it.

I'm not saying they are not violating any GPL, Apache ot other copyright TCs (e.g. inclusion of GMS), but rectifying those possible violations without opening up their code is not that hard.

[Defy Android Development] viper.:
since when? On first page it says "Not works: aGPS, FM-radio, 720p & WVGA Recording. "

...and there you have 720p recording.. any proof of that ? If that is true then everything is almost fixed up. Which beta ?
[Defy Android Development] pl4cid:
settings - cyanogen mod - user interface - power notification - 2G/3G

you can toggle between 2G/3G and 2G, it works.

what advantage you would like to have with a dedicated 3G switch?

your carrier should provide best reception if available and with 2G switch you can limit bandwith. for me it's fine ;)
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
You can change it through settings -cmod- display-allow reduce

I changed there lots of stuff: customed values, allowed decrease,enabled average values, enabled histerises 80 percent so light decrease is very gentle.

Maybe @Quarx should set it to default settings...

[Defy Android Development] racca:
i didn't bring it up, i only corrected wrong opinions.

the miui devs could be scumbags, which i don't care. but they didn't do anything illegal or steal anything by not opening up their source code.

no one is obliged to release their work, sure it's not good for the community. but you can't just call them thieves which is also bad for the community since they do commit source codes back to CM, that's my point.

edit:

and since miui is a fork of CM, and miui for defy is based on this very rom, it's not entirely off-topic

Worked fine for me, thanks. I dont know if it is caused by your patch, but I cannot play mp3 any more. m4a works fine.

Another bug:

I downloaded QuickPic becaus of the laggy gallery. When I press the thumbnail in camera app, it just opens the picture in QuickPic, but if the last picture has already been deleted, the old thumbnail is displayed and cannot be opened.

And you (Quarkx) said, that a SIM tool would be added by update.zip. I cannot find a SIM tool.

[Defy Android Development] neival:
Hi guys! i've been following this since the beginning and it's amazing what you've done.

I have a problem that seems to be unique. With every other rom I've had, my Defy "randomly" rebooted. Since I installed beta2 the problem dissapeared, but the phone "randomly" lost the signal and I had to reboot it manually to bring the signal back. And, if it happens in the middle of a call, I can't hang up and I also have to reboot. This problem persisted on beta3.

I installed beta4 and 4.1 and the rebooting problem came back.

By the way, I always install betas with wipes after and before, and I have tested almost every test/update you've posted, and I've set the 2nd init as default.

Thank you for your time and your amazing work!
[Defy Android Development] gubshi:
As said, I did also apply this patch and mp3 still play fine for me. And for the gallery - I've also used QuickPic before because I didn't like the laggy stock gallery of the Froyo-ROMs, but the new one provided with CM7 is absolutly smooth.

Maybe something's gone wrong with your update, there also is the SIM-App as stated in the first post - it's even called "SIM-Toolkit" :/ note that you need to apply the seperate update.zip for that.
[Defy Android Development] mauri121:

[Defy Android Development] Ph1b:
I can see it on in my system folder, but not in the application list. The other defy firmwares had the SIM-toolkid available for my sim. It is the same, used to import contacts from simcard, isn't it?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
No it is not used to import SIM Contacts, that was a different app, only with similar name. The SIM Toolkit only presents you with the menus your carrier has programmed into your SIM card itself. Not all carriers support it.
[Defy Android Development] woonaval:
For the signal problem, have you tried Defy Baseband Switcher? It's preinstalled. I set it to UK T-Mobile 2.21.1 (or something like that) and it fixes my signal problems (I'm from Spain too).
