[Defy Android Development] Otto.BR:
You guys did it!

Latest Maniac (here) build is absolutely perfect!(his post)

Fast and Stable... and without that blur effect on the power menu (never noticed how much that was annoying...)it's perfect!

I think we've got a serious contender for CM7.2 stable! just merge some changes you guys did, and off we go!(not asking for anything... I just think it's ready)

If I could wish 1 feature, it would be -Status bar in lock screen- (like in ICS\CM9) if it is possible to back port it (like the animations were).

(and yes! now I'm asking! :D)

-----------------------------------------------

And just to share some stuff i learned over the last year since i got my brand new defy:

I use some tweaks []AL[] posted (here) and some mine, learned from []AL[]'s thread, and i few other personalizations, like:

- Nexus Prime Bootanimation i got from the black ice MIUI theme(here)CWM zip attached.

- Custom boot logo (actually i got one of the pics from Walter79's MS2Ginger Boot animation)NOT FLASHABLE! unzip it in your SD card \clockworkmod\backup\ and restore it in RECOVERY->BACKUP AND RESTORE->ADVANCED RESTORE

-Modified Cyanbread.apk in the UOT Kitchen (default Theme) and modified SystemUI.apk (follow AL instructions in his thread to install it) for the fully transparent statusbar.

Thanks All Devs for this awesome ROM!

BTW The wallpaper is the original Half life map draw by hand

and sorry for the long post! :D
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Yes that path would work on Maniac103's Feb20th nightly because the SystemUI.apk is the same as it was on Feb15th nightly.

I use my own modded theme that I've shared here.

You can try this patch attached that will also give you transparency on the 3 default cm7 themes - no extras.

To revert: wipe cache+dalvik cache and reinstall the Feb20th nightly.

General comment [not just directed to you]: please read this to learn how to do it... I recieved a couple PMs about it so that's why I've attached the file this time again ..but I'm no UOT Kitchen...nor this is the place to do so... ;) :)

Thanks.

Cant flash CM7

Hi i have been using cm7 for ages, and all of a sudden i cant flash any cm 7.2 builds cant flash cm-7.1.0-11 but i can flash cm-7.1.0 and cm7.1.0-RC1.5 does anyone know why this may be? last week i flashed cm7.2 no problem but now it hangs on the cyanogenmod bootanimation. thanks
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
I'm using the 4.5.2-109_DHT-22 kernel with Epsilons Defy+ CM7 build since quite some time now and this kernel just gives me a better battery life than froyo.

If I had to guess I'd say my battery lasts at least 30% longer on this gb kernel.

Since Epsilon is busy with ICS I finally decided to build my own for the GB kernel.

So if there's any interest in a CM7 Defy+ build based on Epsilon's gingerbread-plus branch let me know and I'll post the link.

I've made the following minor changes (so far):

* Used modules/camera.ko from cm72-111213.0943-NIGHTLY-Defy+ to get the camera working out of the box

* bootmenu/config/overclock.conf and bootmenu/script/overclock.sh from MS2Ginger3.0

* Maniac's disable power menu blur effect change

Anyone has this issue as well?
[Defy Android Development] adi4motion:
can some of you install (latest) quadrant standard and post 2D&3D scores (after two runs)? and tell what ROM version you have?

I'm experimenting a bit with some libs and don't know if is there a difference

Here's the link: https://github.com/loosethisskin/android_device_motorola_jordan/downloads

However, it seems quarx got his Defy+ and is busy working/committing Defy+ related changes to his gb branch ... so we might see a quarx Defy+ build in the near future.
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:

[Defy Android Development] pepcisko:
Quarx, that's excellent news :) quick question though - are there any restrictions for the Defy+ build? I mean Kernel etc., can people with 2.3.4 or 2.3.6 flash it, do we still need to exchange the battd binary.. this kind of info.
[Defy Android Development] mdt24:
Yeahhh !!! will try Defy+ version ASAP... Thanks a lot. :-)

[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
I had a boot loop this time, but this happens (at least to me) sporadically with pretty much any nightly no matter if from Epsilon, Quarx & Maniac and/or Defy/Defy+.
[Defy Android Development] pepcisko:
same here.. bootloop first time, but second time (2nd boot, haha) worked like a charm. So now I'm running Quarx's new nightly for defy+ on the 4.5.1-134-DFP-139 (2.3.6 retail DACH).

I did a few quick checks - everything seems to work as expected - camera is fine and battery shows the correct percentage. Thanks man!!!

The only caveat - it shows MB525 as the device id :)

EDIT: Just realized there are new quick-settings icons in the notification screen, are those "hard-to-see-shadowed-icons" as expected?
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Quarx just changes this in his repo and I guess hist next build will show MB526.

---------- Post added at 01:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 PM ----------

Hi Quarx,

Do you have any idea why the 2.3.4 - 4.5.3-109 kernel (boot/devtree/recovery) won't work with any Defy+ CM7 builds (I have a bayer defy btw) ? I always get stuck at the boot logo (M) when flashing this one for some reason. 4.5.1-134 DFP-74 and 4.5.2-109_DHT-22 work fine.

How would I debug this? adb unfortunately won't see the device when it's stuck on the logo to get the log.

The reason why I'm asking and like to get it to work is because I saw a few posts from Walter recommending this kernel for his MS2Ginger ROM saying it has the best battery life.

Thanks

I'm on maniac's latest nightly, noticed a battery drop from 26 to 20 percent. Did clean install for this. Cleaned data,cache,dalVik,battery stats etc for this.

Does anybody else also observe the same......
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Thanks for reporting this. I know it's a small issue, but since both Epsylon3 and Maniac103 now include this, it makes me think twice before testing Quarx's build.. That volume rocker sound really annoys me.

What exactly are those? New power widget buttons? Could you post a screenshot?

Old issue that many users have reported having. I've experienced this forever. Mine always drop from ~56% to 49% and that on 95%+ of battery discharges. It also sometimes happens around that 25% mark as well (although I usually recharge before getting there).

It might very well be a hardware problem..

If anyone could try/report on the issue after trying different batteries would be nice...

Edit:

And btw, I've asked to dev of 'Battery Monitor Widget' about it and he had no real answer for it either..other than suspecting that it has to do with (too) short partial charges. But I've tried every trick in the book (deltete battery stats, various calibration and charging methods...) and nothing fixes this. :(
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I'm not a fan of benchmarks, but here, if it can help you...

(I've just tried the latest version out of curiosity)

2nd run results on Maniac's Feb 20th; but with cpu set at 900Mhz max - don't ask why.. ;)
[Defy Android Development] pepcisko:
looks like this (sorry for the data speed indication, DDMS is not installed on this PC so I had to use VNC). The inactive icons are a bit difficult to see since they're really thin and shadowed.

I came from Epsylon's January build, maybe thsi changed a long time ago and I realized only yesterday? :)
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I see... no new options here then.

I've just checked and it looks the same on Maniac's build as well; but that is for Androdian and Cyanbread themes. I might be worng, but I think that they've changed the default theme recently. So try switching to "System" theme; that might be what you used to have on. Otherwise, you can mod all those icons as you like pretty easily also...
[Defy Android Development] adi4motion:
thanks!...it seems that what i've changed doesn't make any difference
[Defy Android Development] Saltank:
I've got an issue when using the 3G/HSDPA data on the phone.

For example, I'm trying to install or update applications from the Market. It would start, then stop and no longer download. The 3G logo in the top menu would switch to "H", but it would go really slowly. Then it might lose it altogether.

I'm on Orange UK and didn't have this issue before installing CM7.

In this Quarx-nightly from 23th i had to experience that my phone wont connect to 3G network (not even 2G Internet)

I made a full-clean-install (even reflashed SBF).

So I think i'm going to roll back to another nightly. Any recommendations? Previous poster said something about 02032012. Is it better than the nightly from the 12th?

ok, i guess i'm done with cm7.2 nightly flashing: maniac's latest is the one, this rc kang can be the final rom on my soc defy (may go to stable if you ask me). simply good enough. if i really want to find a issue, it can be the touchscreen unresponsiveness while unlocking with pattern code when being charged :)

thanks again for all the fine releases devs!

[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Hey Quarx,

Just installed you latest Defy+ nightly. Thanks

Regarding the 4vsel ... shouldn't you also modify the overclock.sh script since I don't think yours picks up all 4 cpu frequences. I needed to copy MS2Ginger's one to see all 4. Or am I missing something?

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] hackergnome:
Quarx any way to implement 4vsel in froyo kernel?

and

what was the 2ndboot committe in ur github?
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
I don't think so because the Froyo kernel doesn't support 4 states. And even on the GB kernel only 1 + 4 are used (at least with the default on demand governor).
[Defy Android Development] hackergnome:
what was 2ndboot committe that Quarx had in his git?
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
I know probably as much as you do - which is not very much :)

But I found this link: http://and-developers.com/custom_rom:2ndboot.

If my understanding is correct then 2ndboot loads a custom kernel AFTER the bootloader verified the signature. But what happens if your phone needs to reboot or freezes for some reason and you have to pull the battery - doesn't that mean you now have a modified kernel and the phone won't boot and you get a bootloader error?

Thanks. nightly is re-uploaded :)

I've also experienced this... Some very sensitive rotations to landscape mode.

I am on the 225 nightly and the wifi bug seems fixed, but I didn't see any commit for this... Quarx, can you briefly describe what this was and why there isn't a commit for it? Was it something in the packaging?

Also, the ge.tt site doesn't work on the stock browser, I just get a blank page. It does work on Firefox Beta, and I could get it to download here at the hotel... But as I mentioned before, Firefox will eventually cause the phone to reboot. I will try to get a logcat of this with my PC.

What do you guys think about this:?

I think that I've raised a valid 'privacy concern*here on this post regarding the default cm7 Music.apk.

*: nothing bad just a little side effect of the default music player...

Here's an extract:

"Now, all that being said, I still don't like to keep the cm7 default music player for one main reason: it also adds a "Videos" link in the app drawer wich links to a directory of all video files on the phone -hidden or not!!- .

You can't freeze (with TB or other app) that Videos 'shortcut' independently from the Music.apk nor you could (or would really want to) lock it (i.e.: add a password to the default audio player) with an app like Smart App Protector..."

And add: can't always use a "nomedia" file in a video folder also.

Like I wrote on there too; I know that that the use of the ICS's music player is not 100% problem-free on cm7. For example: the album art covers are not displayed on lockscreen.. But could it be implemented in easily or is it worth it anyway?

I'm only throwing a line in the water here...; this switch can easily done manually and I'm just wondering if you devs could have a peek and give their opinion on the "usefulness" or not of such an implementation.

Cheers.

Hi Quarx. I've just tested the nightly for Defy+ from 26 Feb. Well it works ok but I have something lags in ADW Launcher (the stock one) when I scroll in app drawer or between screens in desktop.

Also, is there any option to hide the dock when I'm in app drawer? I'd like an full screen app drawer.
