Hi there. Sorry for the following maybe stupid question, but i lost track somehow.

I read the forums for an hour or so, including this thread, but i'm not able to find an answer or a how-to.

I am using an old nightly right now and want to update. readme on the nightly page linked on page one tells me, the recent builds are only for gingerbread kernels. I have a defy with a green lense. where do i find that gingerbread kernel/ is there a version with integrated kernel? do ihave to flash another SBF? (hope not). which version should i flash (and how?)

thanks for your time!
[Defy Android Development] m_zet:
http://www.defy-cm.net/jordan-cm7.2-nightly/ and download the newest and install like you did before.

No need to load SBF or anything.
[Defy Android Development] puked:
Thanks, works fine!
[Defy Android Development] Otto.BR:
Green (SOC) camera doesn't work on GingerBread (DEFY +) builds (yet).

Do as the gentleman above said and keep using the froyo ones.
[Defy Android Development] jh20:
not 100% sure if i remembered correctly but, those latest nightlies "may not" contain any kernel. so if you're on a very old nightly you might want to flash the nov 11 2011 released rom first before the latest nightly to ensure you got the latest kernel.

the released rom can be found on the parent directory of the link provided.
[Defy Android Development] puked:
thx. i did that already i guess. what happens if you flash an older version after updating the kernel? does it work? i know it did not matter earlier, which kernel you used (well, some people said it does, but i never had any problems, no matter which 2.2 kernel i used), but it seems to be important with the newer builds.

this information would be usefull in the readme or the first post.

I've been using CM7.1 for a few days now and noticed that I get stuck on the boot loop quite a few times (blue swirling CM logo). What's the cause for this?
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
It's a known bug... if this happens, press the power and volume up and down keys, all at the same time and the phone will reboot.
[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
Bootloop at very first boot after flashing is a known bug. But a few times? Must be another issue.

[Defy Android Development] maniac103:

Unfortunately SPN and PLMN don't seem to work properly with the Defy's RIL. PLMN should be your physical network provider name, SPN your service provider name. In my case, I should get 'T-Mobile D' as PLMN and 'Simply' as SPN, but get 'Simply' in both cases.

Can anyone with on a virtual network confirm that?

in my case, PLMN is same as default value, but SPN has empty display.

it open the archive but... i cant save =\ when i use wq or wq! shows the message "this file is a read only" and if i run without the "" only open vi, nano & cia xD and no open the file

another question... i got sucess on using the linux installer, with debian stable on a loop file on the sdcard... but... when i try install the desktop enviorment xfce4 i got a error, becaus the kernel used from this rom (last nigtlhy) dos not have a module INOTIFY ... how i can recompile the kernel to include this module(and allmodules used for this rom xD)?

edit: on nano to try save the overclock.conf the message is "error saving on a read only file system"

Anyone know anything about euroskank as the build looks really good. Wanna try it, but never heard of them.
[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
It will work, but w/o camera. And did you notice this is CM9?
[Defy Android Development] Need_Good_ID:
yeah I noticed, the camera isn't fixed yet on ICS builds right? so should I use cm72-120102.0338-NIGHTLY-Defy.zip instead?
[Defy Android Development] ABBolle:
Here is a thread about this builds...

If you want to use your cam, you should install the cm7.2... ;)
[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
You´re right, there´s no working camera in CM9. I don´t know what you should ;) - you can use this as daily rom. But depending of your current rom you maybe have to update to cm7.1 stable first (or flash an actual kernel).

@ABBolle: you again...;)
[Defy Android Development] Kuresz:
I use the 01 02 7.2 nightly. I didnt flashed the 7.1 stable before the nigtly. So i have CEE kernel or am i wrong? Is there a flashable zip with the cm 7 kernel?

further on SPN lable, i can manage to show SPN value by appending /system/etc/spn-config.xml.

Excuse my ignorance but is this for Froyo kernel? I thought Epsylon was developing on Defy+ gb kernel and Quarx on Defy Froyo kernel.

He was stuck on the Defy+ sbf now he got a new Defy

don't know if it's a coincident, one main difference i found was eppy's rom still bootloop but maniac's didn't when i installed them.....

You can use 7.1 stable - or flash kernel separately, it has been postet several times here and in cm9 thread.

New one incoming with Rotation animations ^^

thank you, thank you very much for your great work

ahemm...just a question eppy...is there a possibility it will reach cm7.4 for defy soon?;)
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
or cm8 ^^ to fill the hole

---------- Post added at 04:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 AM ----------

yes New: ICS rotate and transition animations, headset key to select in bootmenu and recovery (latest), portrait video ratio fix, Custom carrier label

and other changes of the last nightlies, like the ICS Holo lockscreen

available in rom manager too

hmm some users reported me an important memory leak related to the rotation patch, i'll try to fix that.... (ps: we dont see it easily on the defy because we have 512MB, but on Droid, that is really important :p)
[Defy Android Development] hackergnome:
gr8!!!

whats the nightly version?

for defy plus!
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Thanks Epsylon3,

I'm glad to see the ICS screen transition and rotation animations now included.

The portrait video ratio fix also nice.

I went from Defy+ nightly to this latest one without wiping data (but flashing the CM7 kernel) without any problem.

All good so far on cm72-120121.0028-NIGHTLY-Defy.zip except one very small thing: the video zoom doesn't work once the recording has started. But no biggie really...

Edit: In fact, this can easilly get fixed by the old trick of replacing the Camera.apk with the one from Nov10th nightly - and no need to replace the overlay.omap3.so though.

Thanks again.

You've recieved your new defy? Green or red lens this time?..and still planning to get the two types anyway?
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
green also this one but on froyo kernel, i will try the repair service for the first one... maybe i will get a new motherboard or a new phone if they cant repair it by another way

defy+ kernels need to wait a bit...

OK then I'll flash defy nightly for testing and stuff...

"error while searching for networks" - Defy Red Lens running 120120 nightly

I have just installed Epsylon's latest nightly [120120] on my new Defy Red Lens.

When I try to search for networks manually, I generally get an error message "error while searching for networks". The error pops up immediately after clicking the "Network operators" sub-menu. However, the search for networks function does work in rare occasions. I had the same issue on 120102 nightly as well. (I haven't tried the earlier releases on this phone)

I have never faced this problem with my Defy green lens, on which I had been running CM7 since the past few months.

Any inputs / thoughts on what could be causing the issue would be much appreciated.

[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Yeah, the lastest is Jan21st..

But regarding your problem, for me it's the opposite: I had that issue for a loooong time and now, it seems to work fine...

But aren't you registered on the network anyway after booting up? Do you see your operator name when you pull down the notification panel?

Sorry, I can't help more than this really..
[Defy Android Development] karlsberg:
Status bar dissapeared after installing latest nightly.

I did a wipe cache before installing.

Does any one having this issue?

Edit:

A reboot fixed it, so i guess it can't be a major problem.
[Defy Android Development] qaqarox:
I guess I didn't verify if "latest" was really the latest :)

Initially, I tried to restore the nandroid backup (cm72-120102.0338) of my green-lens defy to my new red-lens. When I did this, the phone refused to register on any network. It wouldn't even let me manually choose the network operator.

I then did a full wipe and installed the "latest" nightly. When I did this, the phone auto-registered on my network. But it still won't let me choose the network operator. Even more weirdly, the network selection option suddenly starts working every now and then.

I saw an old post regarding this (June '11). Some people have reported similar errors with the CM9 builds.

Could you let me know which nightly fixed the problem for you? I think I'll try flashing that one (or the immediately preceding nightly).

I'm also facing another network problem - my EDGE connection is extremely flakey. Every now and then (atleast once a day) the EDGE connection simply stops working. The "E" symbol in the status bar also disappears. However, putting the phone in airplane mode and bringing it back fixes the problem. I've had this problem with both my green-lens Defy as well as the new red-lens. Not sure if this is a service provider issue, or a problem with the phone. I'm running on Vodafone in India.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
The latest: Jan 21st...

From memory, quite a few guys from India have reported network providers problems...
[Defy Android Development] qaqarox:
Had the same problem. Rebooting however, did not bring back the status bar. What did work is toggling the "bottom status bar" option under Tablet Tweaks. I toggled this option on and off, and presto the status bar reappeared.

I did forget to wipe cache after updating this nightly..maybe that was one reason why a reboot wouldn't fix it?

EDIT-----

Status bar randomly crashes and randomly starts up again. Also, the status bar does not load upon boot..the "tablet tweaks" method described above is also not working.
