you can't say that the next version is (almost) free of bugs until you test it heavily.

thus you cant get RC until the CURRENT version is (almost) clean of bugs.

once we (Quarx) get to this point... only small minor changes will be made, and bug fixes of course.
[Defy Android Development] diamond_lover:
Microphone when Speakerphone enabled IS a phone function that not work properly, so when it will be solved we will have our RC :rolleyes:

I really hope that someone can help Quarx to fix this several bugs (battery drain, mic, etc.) because it's hard to one man handle all.

Thanks again Quarx from all your followers :)
[Defy Android Development] bavo_t:
As far as I know there's only one thing missing from this ROM (as far as functionallity goes) and that's:

- Microphone when the speakerphone is not working.

When this is fixed I think Quarx can make the next version RC (as long as no new bugs appear)

wvga and 720p are indeed some nice extra's but not base functionallity.

But even if everything is working it's up to Quarx to decide how he will name his next rom.

I don't care whether his next ROM is called Cyanogenmod7-RC1 or KangedCyanogenGit_20110512_build349558.323_alpha6 as long as it's nice and functional.

After all it is just a name. (I'd still prefer Cyanogenmod7-RC1 tough :))
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I do think the name needs something to avoid it being confused as official. Something with Kang or Quarx port in there :lol:

Regardless of name this is the best rom for Defy. Period.
[Defy Android Development] elnovio:
In my opinion the only reason and legitimation for pushing Quarx in a timely manner (please make next release in the next few days, hours, whatever) is in having made a donation to him :)
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Still not an acceptable reason. I believe you are donating for his time already spent and only the possibility of future updates. Donations are just that...a donation and not a payment for a guaranteed service :p
[Defy Android Development] ezantera:
Nobody have right to push quarks, the MAN is already working in light speed comparing motorolas android "wizards".

Just some guys cannot resist to ask "when is next version" lol
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
I want add widescreen VIDEO & Photo.

With video i have problem:

You need a 64bit ubuntu/debian/mepis/mint or LMDE

I repacked a VM made for Xperia, need little changes for defy :

But here i use a real LMDE PC to compile
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
Maybe on other defy it works, I am spectic at these things, because sometimes I think all Defy's are different.

[Defy Android Development] viper.:
Maybe you should try some other video codec for WVGA - h.263 or MPEG4 .
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
Maybe use

MEDIA_MIMETYPE_VIDEO_MPEG4, "OMX.TI.720P.Decoder"

maybe a solution to 720p also? :p
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
dunno how that works for omap, but on S3C6410, video/photo buffers are specific memory zones allocated in kernel config, its related to available memory set in boot cmdline
[Defy Android Development] derbestimmer:
@quarx: perhaps you should use mp4 codec instead of h264 for widescreen recording. i know h264 is far superior to mp4 but afaik antibyte (wvga) and hancock (720p) both didn't manage to use h264 in their hacks. maybe the defy isn't capable of that hardwarewise
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
Someone can view log on 2.2, 848*480 Video Record by OMX.TI.Video.encoder.so or libOMX.TI.720P.Encoder.so?
[Defy Android Development] peetr_:
Maybe it has something to do with SCCB interface. Try to look at point 2.5 in OV5642_CSP_DS_1.11_OVT.pdf.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Someone please do this! I will if I get little one off to sleep soon!
[Defy Android Development] bihariel:
hi quarx,

could you change the dalvick-cache to data partition? y say that because some times de cache partition is full( market downloads) and the phone takes too long to start when you have 20 or more apps installed.
[Defy Android Development] adi4motion:
here it is. logcat 848*480 on 2.2

For the time being I reverted to beta5 without aGPS fix. Beta5.1 has issues with battery life and overall system smoothness. I'll wait for the next beta.
[Defy Android Development] labsin:
Is the issue when making a photo of a high detailed photo already adressed?

Couldn't find it on github.

Yesterday I went to a concert and saw a famous Belgian presenter. I wend on photo with her but had troubles. Could take 3Mp picture so I'm happy ^^. But sad it isn't as nice as it could be.

But that's why it's beta. Wouldn't want to be on less speedy 2.2.

Everybody who uses it should donate (even just a little bit)!!
[Defy Android Development] shorty66:
Id love to see call recording supported in the next release.

Do you think it is working for the defy?

But for Quarx it's easy to integrate the update I hope he's online and can do that

quickly :D:D
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:

[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
@ Quarx could you just post a reply if you noticed the new update? :)
[Defy Android Development] bihariel:
well but what about the startup time? could it be decreased?
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Who cares? I don't I maybe restart once a day tops.

[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
I already used this update for milestone.

But on defy bug with change overlay. I think I will correct it soon.

New Camera ui looks great:)

640*480 record in mp4(6,63 Mbps) & h264
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
Sorry for annoying you, but please upload the new beta

because these are great:

Fixed a problem waking device when switched off the lock screen. If you press the volume buttons and the headset button.

issue #130 - Beta 5.1 Can't charge when shutdown!

fix 2USB Storage icon

Enables SIP on WIFI only - False

Fix Autobrightness levels

Fix camera frame drops.

Maybe fix batt drain.

Busybox 1.19

Some small fixes
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
lol, patience is a virtue :)
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
I know, but the new camera ui is very great, saw it on other phones.

New UI are welcome, but usability bugs are a priority for me. Battery drain for example.

[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
It would be in the new beta

``Maybe fix batt drain.´´

So we could test it :D
[Defy Android Development] :
really? can you post any pic akki? It would be nice to see it hehe

the next update is going to be important if all of that has been solved! I'm quite impatient! why? 'cause Quarx is the fastest guy in updating and a few days without update seems like a month hehehe

tomorrow maybe we get the miui rom! defy is awsome (except for the earpiece problem :p)

my noob question is... can cm7 get solutions from the source code of miui and viceversa? like using the best part of each rom to replace and make more efficient and have a better performance (I'm not talking about the ui just the coding stuff)?????

edit: last friday MIUI was released for developers http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjY0MjA5MDc2.html this friday we're having the official launch, but suppose it will only be in chinese right? lol!
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
For a pic I must wait because a friend flashed the new one, but he isn't at home at the moment, but Quarx could make a screenshot.(just if he's not busy :))
[Defy Android Development] f4lkon:
Hmm i cant undestand the discussion about Battery drain. With normal usage i get 2-3 Days with beta 5.1. For me Quarx should not spend more time in that.
[Defy Android Development] powertony84:
It's real...
[Defy Android Development] donb123:
tmo wifi calling

Stock Tmobile had a wifi calling app. Does anyone know the SIP parms to use Wifi calling in CM7 or does anyone have an update or apk for Tmo app?
[Defy Android Development] thiagold:
Mine is been drained in about 18 hours... and before took about 48 hours at least.
[Defy Android Development] alberson:
Just like mine. I used to charge at night and pass from 9AM-7PM without charging, as a heavy user. Now, it goes from 9AM-4PM and I need to charge. It's a problem, problably, in the new update.

We must wait 'till the release.
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
do you often to use mobile data connection for internet?

do you activate facebook/twitter/email push notification?

do you often to use your wifi?

with same condition, same apps, same behaviour,

froyo has more durability on battery,

and IT IS REAL! WE DON'T MAKE A HOAX here..

sorry, but it is real...

i don't know why some people can use defy or 3-4 days,

and for me, it just f***ing 1 days at tops (even on froyo),

and in CM7 it just only can get a half day (10-12 hours).

maybe motorola sell different Defy:

with one good battery, and others with rubbish battery!

i still don't get it, why on other thread people can use Defy for a WEEK in single charge! and i (and some people too...) only can get 1 day.
[Defy Android Development] thiagold:
I can't rename it or delete it. I'm using rooted File Expert. I already kill the gtalk app.
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
No battery problems for me. After 1 day and 1 hour it is still at 75% and wifi is switched on all the time. Sync is switched on as well. Guess the phone can last at least three days with modest use, 2 days with average use. I use Beta 5.1 and I used Battery Calibration to wipe old battery stats.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
The battery problem is real, I used beta5 and beta 5.1 with the same apps, same conditions. Beta5.1 depletes the battery much faster. Those who follow this thread know that the most probable suspect for the issue is the addition of some motorola code for the a-GPS.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I only get a day tops always been the same on HTC tattoo, HTC desire, zte blade and now Defy.

Beta 5.1 i make around 12 hours.

[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Consider yourself lucky, mine goes down to 70% after just 10 hours, with little or NO use at all, only stand by. Only happens in beta5.1
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
When you post feedback like Battery Drain, can you please say sbf use, Froyo 3.4.2-177 3.4.3-11 3.4.2-164 .......

Thanks

Now just wait for next release :D

Thanks Quarx .
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
i got same person who have same problem with me..
[Defy Android Development] f4lkon:
Hmm strange. It seems to be real that every Defy is more or less totaly different. Im using Facebook over the Browser. Im surfing about 1 hour per Day. I have all the time 3g on and use email push notification with gmx. Im always connected to google Talk. I read a lot of Pdf files and im often looking for things with wolfram alpha.Im not using Wifi.
[Defy Android Development] alberson:
I'm using an old JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_117-002. I don't know what version is this, but I had that before joined this thread. Does anyone know what version is this and recomend me to change, at all?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Using the 3.4.2-177 sbf as base and when I'm doing battery tests I usually keep the DEFY in GSM only mode without using the data connection at all. In that way I know something's wrong when the device is in sleep mode. Sleep mode doesn't work properly in beta5.1.
[Defy Android Development] :
apart from the sleep mode problem maybe the ones who have updated from 5.0 have longer battery life than the ones who have wiped and installed 5.1 (suggestion)
[Defy Android Development] petrolin:
I updated from 5.0 and i have the same battery problem.

Thanx for the good work, cm7 is my fav!

Media server taking 20%.

No :rolleyes: on Froyo Pays ROM v5 the last i use battery life for me 20% on 24 Hours .

With this ROM i can see 20% in 12 houres with egale use .

Now i try to compile last Git if i can :o
[Defy Android Development] abhi.eternal:
I get quite feasible battery life, with music & browsing - data is ON all the time. I can charge it with power off as well. However, I miss the beep it made earlier when I connected or disconnected the charger. It was helpful when power went off and came back; worked in switch off mode as well. Anyway to get it back?
[Defy Android Development] nov.six@qq.com:
640*480 30fps MP4

[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
for the battery problem, just remove /system/app/Talk.apk

Love the rom, works great (except for Droidwall, but that's an app problem, not a rom problem).

Anyway, is there a way to install Swype w/o having to register on their site, register to install, and let them track all of the things I type in to my keyboard in perpetuity? With no Droidwall to firewall the app so that it can't phone home...

Any ideas / solutions? ... I would gladly pay for Swype if I could get it without having to register on their site and let them track my keystrokes...
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
Search around 10 pages before and you will find a version of droidwall that runs on CM7. About swype, the only way to get beta is registering, maybe in warez sites. I use beta, without fear of a conspiration about my chats being public exposed ;)

- 720p recording

- increase of brightness

- fix laggy of some apps

That would be great-:rolleyes:

h.264 never worked for me even on froyo leak. TI.Video.Encoder can only handle 720x480@30fps/D1 max. 848x480 would require 720p encoder.

HELP - My Phone is (almost) bricked.

Guys,

Here's what happened. Installed CM7.1 in the morning. Worked perfectly.

Then using Titanium Backup I restored about 20 apps + 45 user data including wallpapers etc. That started giving process.android.media getting force closed.

This was really irritating while either loading Gallery or any sort of sounds. The SMS sound worked fine though. (was it the missing Moto ring tune?)

Getting fed up of the sound, I wanted to reinstall Beta 5.1 - I booted into 2nd init, then tried custom recovery but it wouldn't recognize the SD card - it wasn't mounted at all. Even trying to mount it within the CWM didn't work.

It was rebooting normally into CM7 though with the irritating error. At that time.

So out of impatience, I went to System Recovery (tenfar's app) - installed it and rebooted. Here's what I see:

- The Blue Icon is gone.

- The Motorola icon comes and goes - then the Cyanogen screen basically works in slow motion. Like haltingly the icon comes in sliding from the right, freezes, disappears then comes in from the right.

- The screen remains off, with the backlight ON.

Left it for 15 minutes but nothing happened.

The battery is 70% before this stupid error of mine.

What should I do now?

/Its just a 3 day old phone :(
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Start from scratch, flash a full sbf and try installing CM7 again.
[Defy Android Development] matheusvilela:
Guys, the swype extracted from official 2.2.1 brazilian ROM works with CM7.

However, it's english/portuguese-br/spanish/french only.

To install it, just apply the zip attached using custom recovery.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
And just to be clear, when using CM7 NEVERtry to install tenfar's recovery or 2ndinit again, unless Quarx releases an upgrade himself or you know what you are doing. Otherwise you'll have to wipe everything and start all over again the installation procedure.
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
ccav - ok, I have the 3.4.3-11UK SBF - so its time to go back to the bootloader now?

*sigh*

Any other things to keep in mind? Any other mistakes to avoid?
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
you are wrong, it is his property because he made 95% of the things work....

Typed by my Defy using CM-7 beta 5 with the XDA premium App
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
You can't install custom recovery when you have 2nd Init. You will have ta start again flashing a full SBF if you can't boot your phone (before the battery dies).

I was using GoogleTalk with video/audio, from the last googleapps zip. Someone that will install CM7 today could try to use the old gapps to see if it's a problem with it.
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
I have downloaded MUI. There used earlier sources from my git. :)

I see my early mistakes, that have already eliminated:)
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
Too bad for them :S

It would be good if they work together with you

@Quarx, please update bootmenu to 0.80 before Beta 5.2/6, they have a Overclock/Undervolt module *-*
