thx, but got another defy in family with stock 2.2.2 that works fine with it. also tried to change every possible security/misc settings in the router with no success.

ok, i'll try flashing rc1v2 from scratch, it should solve my wifi problem.
[Defy Android Development] hailmary:
Hahaha..:D

@sunoldman,

Thanks for letting us know the result...ur a great guy for diving into it...salute you;)
[Defy Android Development] Registerme:
Are you using a wireless-N router too? I use a AVM Fritzbox 7390 wich uses b-g-n-mixmode. Either the router or the wireless driver on the defy is the cause. As soon as I disable wirless-N and switch to b-g only my wireless is peferct.

When I don't change anything the wireless works for a minute or so and then it becomes extremely slow, about 4 KB/s.

Is there someone with these 2 strange issues?

#1 - My cell looses the signal and can't get it back again! I tried to put flight mode on and off but it don't gets back the signal. I need to restart my phone to get the signal again!

#2 - When I dial some number and touches the green phone (to make the call) the dialer app freezes and it don't work anymore. I need to reboot my phone to get it working again

any ideas? :confused:

[Defy Android Development] hailmary:
Thanks for trying it & reporting..eppy3 will just refine it..why it needs reseat battery to reboot..

I will try it too later..;)
[Defy Android Development] sunoldman:
Maybe the reboot code is missing after wipe. Except that everything is fine.
[Defy Android Development] AgentSmith:
With the app Wireless Tether I am able to setup a wifi access point with WEP encryption in adhoc mode which works fine. However I discovered that a friend of mine who has a Defy with an original Froyo firmware is able to do the same but with WPA encryption and in infrastructure mode.

After looking around I discovered the similar app WIFI Tether which allows you to change the device profile. I tried most profiles that allow for infrastructure mode (softap and netd) and WPA encryption. Softap doesn't even make the driver load according to the app's log. Netd seems to get further but fails at the step of actually starting up the wifi. I tried all this with and without the option to tether with alternative driver.

Since my friend's defy works just fine with WPA and infrastructure mode I was wondering if it is possible to add a profile in WIFI Tether to make this possible in CM7 as well. Any ideas someone?

Hey guys,

Soory if this might be a little off-topic, but since I just took the time to write this up [for my own good], I thought I would share it anyway. Good, if it is of any use to anyone else...

Here's a list of applications found under /system/app directory (and a description of each) that I've removed from my phone without getting any negative effect so far [and I've done a lot of logcat watching lately].

Most of them are apks that only load up upon user's selection, but most of them are really useless for me and just take about 16Mb of space on my phone internal memory [and in my nandroid backups. ;) ]for nothing.

It is also nice to see that some other apks/services are no longer showing up as running in background everytime I turn ON the wifi [like GooglePartnerSetup and GoogleFeedback -for example].

So it's all up to you to chose do do the same or not, but the very least I can say is that my wifi DL speed is much more stable since I've removed Talk.apk.

Cheers.

Have you checked/set/changed your router's DHCP lease time?

Like it was mentioned here some time ago, increasing the lease time can not hurt...

Mine is set at 2 days: 2dx24hx60minx60sec= 17280 seconds and I see this at the end of my logcat:

DHCP server 192.168.1.1 lease 178200 seconds ... not "-1"...

Worth exploring?

good thing it was "a small logcat" ;-)

factory data reset

I tested it...its still not 100% working fine.

-2ndinit didnt go after factory,have to reseat battery

-though it dont give bootloops,

-its giving constant freeze on the screen after restart

-battery reseat as always

-unstable - restarts by its own.

-unable to nandroid after factory

Im back square one-clean install...eppy3,it just needs little retouch im sure..its almost.
[Defy Android Development] pomah:
No I can change it, the fact is thou that it worked perfect with both froyo and the old nightlies. I know also that this is not general for all networks since my work wifi is not giving the same disconnect/connect symptoms.

Hi [] AL [], how did you remove them? Just SU'd to /system/app (R/W) and remove them, or some other way (boot script changes)?

i have a strange isue...all this time i tough that this happens coz i instal every day a new nightly but just for this test i was on same build for 3 days

so the problem is like this : i charge my battery full...wipe battery stat, do a battery calibration with the app from the market and everything is ok..i have 1 day of use till 66% and then it drops unexpectedly to 45% in 1 sec...but the funny thing is that i have still 2 days out of that 45%

i use my phone quite much: music 2 hours a day...some texts...wifi turned off when not online, data turned off when not online...20-30 mins calls every day

but if i play a hd game it drains very fast..like 20% an hour or something like that

any1 with the same issue ?
[Defy Android Development] Gusar321:
Weeeeeeee, got USB tethering working! Had to do some manual tinkering though. First, I saw this commit: https://github.com/CyanogenDefy/and...mmit/17eb8e7c86466b4a5d9ee09113dbe26987080132

I created that file. Still, after activating usb tethering, I had to start dnsmasq manually:

dnsmasq -C /data/misc/wifi/dns.conf

After that, the computer could obtain a lease. No internet yet though. Then I had a look at iptables on the phone. It wasn't configured. So I did that:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.42.0/24 -o tiwlan0 -j MASQUERADE

The phone has a wifi connection currently, hence the tiwlan0. If it instead had a mobile data connection, just replacing '-o tiwlan0' with '-o rmnet0' would do it, I think.

I must say I'm liking Android quite a bit more right now. It's not quite Linux, especially when it comes to the userspace, but it's close enough that such tricks as the above actually work.
[Defy Android Development] Gusar321:
Not as sharp, but yeah, I too have a sudden drop. Usually it's 50% to 45% or something very similar to that.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
For me, the, easiest way is to use RootExplorer from the market. You mount that directory as read/write multi-select the files and move them somewhere on your SD card. Then remount back the directory as read only and reboot.

That way, you can always do the process again if you decide you want the apks back. But you will then need to set the files' permissions and ownerships back to what they were (same as how the other files in that directory); also easy to do with RootExplorer.

You could also reinstall all of them quickly by just flashing a nightly again I guess...
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I see no issue here; all you've described have been discussed/observed before.

On my phone, I always get a drop from 56 to 49% battery level. I think that it is hardware related. Your drop is steep though, but I'm afraid there might be no solution.. It would be interesting to see you try with another battery..

As for the 20%/hour usage while gaming: a little high (must be a CPU demanding game), but normal as well.

You still manage to get close to (or even more than) 2 days of use out of a full charge aren't you? So no worries!! ;-)

Try "Wireless tether for root users" this one works in WPA2 and is now set in AP mode with current CM7 settings

The CM7 wifi tether code seems unfinished for Texas Instruments devices and the main problem is he want to set a new interface "tiap0" instead of "tiwlan0"

That create problems with current services like wpa and dns, set to use tiwlan0

Yep, got that behavior today with the 110814 nightly. Quite similar to the bug I had with the SOC camera hack which improved image quality and increased picture size (from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12804911).

Does new CM7.1 nightlies contain a patched /etc/mot_ise_imager_cfg.bin ?

The behavior I have (force quit of camera app under very strong light conditions, movie mode skips frame under strong light) is similar to what I got applying this patch with 3 or maybe 4 as compression setting (with 2, the image was even better and files produces were larger...but the bug did occur even under good light, not only direct sunlight).

I am affraid that the original settings in /etc/mot_ise_imager_cfg.bin, while not good for pic quality, were choosen because of their safety: a complex scene under strong light is able to put the SOC module to its keens quite easily :-(
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
i have that patch applied, so thats the cause of the problem? how do i change the compression setting to 2 (if i understand correctly, that would solve my problem)? i cant really open the modded mot_ise_imager_cfg.bin as a text file...
[Defy Android Development] Gusar321:
Use a hex editor. Not quite as simple as editing text, but not that complicated either. Just make sure you have a backup mot_ise_imager_cfg.bin in case you screw up.

exactly the same problem i have, though i dont know if it is because of wpa2... still could not find a solution and its soooooooo annoying... thinking of going back to stock froyo...

[Defy Android Development] gkai:
did U install the patch after U installed cm7.1 nightly? if not, U no longer have the patch installed: your modified version of mot_ise_imager has been overwritten by the one contained in the nightly. this is what I did, so I was surprised that stock cm7.1 behavior was similar to patched one, maybe qwarx/epsilon3 have applied the patch into cm7.1 source??? anyway, to avoid this problem, U have to increase compression, not reduce it (i.e. go to compression 4). you will get more info in the original cam hack thread...

[Defy Android Development] Zerobarat1:
For now I just turned off 3D app drawer from Launcher pro and it doesn't seem to be manifesting anymore. But then I wonder why Go Launcher was doing it. I really don't think it's about Vsel here, cause the system doesn't freeze, it usually restarted the launcher when going from app drawer to desktop or when doing this and then scrolling through homescreens. I also have quite a few widgets on my homescreens and I will try to remove them one by one and see if a widget is behind this.
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
no, i applied the patch after every update. and i dont think its implemented in cm7, because this patch is only for green lens, and it changes register values, doubt that it would have the same effect on red lenses... so what compression does the original patch use? none? 1? cuz i want to get the lowest compression which still works! will try 2 now, 3 seemed to work. (but i got these fidderent compression files from the original thread, couldnt figure out how to hex-edit them on my own).
