I see lots of people getting bootloops...hehe.

as I have said-been there done that:D...

never forget backup the sdcard content.use recommended sbf,

dont forget to read the faq & extra new procedures & cautions...

just got rc1 from boot179,all smooth..expected wifi issue didnt show up...

still testing though cant find any yet...
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Sorry if i was inaccurate try to explain a little clearer.

Set recording framerate to 24 frames per second the resulting video vill be recorded at 20 frames per second

Set recording framerate to 15 frames per second the resulting video vill be recorded at 13 frames per second

Set recording framerate to 10 frames per second the resulting video vill be recorded at 8 frames per second

the recoded framerate is always around 15 percent slower then the framrate we want to record. I think if it was because someting is slow we wont have problems the same problem with 1mbit h263 video, but the problem is present at 1mbit 320x240 10fps videos so it cannot be because someting is slow
[Defy Android Development] koltzu:
Yay, I'm bootloopin' all over the place after flashing RC1 :[
[Defy Android Development] ziki:
RC1 just installed: VIDEO still drops frame :( (green lens)

Still possible? isn't fixed?
[Defy Android Development] your_login:
yeah, the same problem at my green lens (frame drops)- i can upload a sample if needed.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
next nighlty build will include new wifi driver... ive made a mistake for 2.3.4 modules on vendor git... was the 179 ones :p ...

was unused yet... so no impact
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
How did you survive for so long?!hehehe.

Yep, sometimes is just a detail.

Since Eclair i never tap right down coner to stock recovery but the volume up and down it`s a basic "know-how" for anyone.
[Defy Android Development] hailmary:
u almost got me there...nice:D ..im waiting for that next knightly..
[Defy Android Development] ziki:
I don't understand...a lot of talking about wifi that, for me, it works like a charm since beta6 unlike the video recording that still drops frames...is there one people that can say that the video recording works well (with green lens)??!!!
[Defy Android Development] Frunobulax:
Went from a somewhat good pre-RC0 nightly to this RC1 just one hour ago.

So far, it became a little more responsive, and I confirm the green lens video frame drop. I have yet to see the battery usage, though.

Great job as always, Quarx and everyone involved. I hope there are no more turbulence as of when RC0 launched.
[Defy Android Development] koltzu:
Fixed it by a factory reset, flashing the nordic sbf, restoring my nandroid backup and flashing the RC1 again
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Well, at least at that point, I knew that there was some hope...seing something on the screen... that basic detail just slipped my confused mind.

What I still can't explain is why that when I tried to flash my chinese sbf (stock recovery factory reset and all) the flashing still did not go through. Again at the last step phone doesn't reboot RSD says "pass" and the phone is irresponsive w black screen...

I had to do yet another sbf flashing (nordic this time) -without seeing the boot loader screen- to finally get a full flash & boot....

I've never experienced such sbf flashing problems before today and I've done quite a few....

But I'm back in business with RC0 now.
[Defy Android Development] murad12s:
Great ROM!!

When I connect to charger I can't use the phone. But when I charge via usb then no problem!!

Any solution?
[Defy Android Development] RexXxuS:
For me everything runs great and without any problem x) Can't understand some guys here... but so it is ... ;)
[Defy Android Development] sunoldman:
@AL

The Chinese sbf version is lower than nordic, so you may not flash back in normal way.

The Chinese ME525 may have flash light problem with other rom, be careful.
[Defy Android Development] dew.man:
I feel for you! Pretty much the same thing when I tried to flash Nordic after a full 2.3.4 flash - thought for a minute that I had completely bricked my phone.

But the way you went off... Completely unacceptable! Especially for someone that's been around and should understand the risks associated with what you're doing and the effort put forth by the devs. Hopefully you've already PMed your apologies to Eps...
[Defy Android Development] koltzu:
I confirm that the screen's backlight brightness is too low when set on auto. Also, the capacitive keys go out after the screen dims after 10 seconds of staying idle.

Any fix? It's annoying as hell
[Defy Android Development] dew.man:
just use a custom backlight profile.set it up under cm settings...
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I'm starting to suspect my Carrier is at fault here and not my baseband. I successfully extracted the baseband from 179 CEE only to discover... they were the same as the ones in the "central europe" selection of the baseband switcher!
[Defy Android Development] account1:
not facing such problem

and i'm on the same carrier as you are

fyi, flashed cm7 with 179 CEE as a base
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Yeah, but guess what: everytime there is a power outage here (damn strike!) 3G dies... I suspect it did not recover correctly yesterday.

Today after the power came back 3G was fine as usual.

So, same carrier, but different region, different 3G base station!
[Defy Android Development] gubshi:
Do you use the original charger? noticed that when charging the phone in the car or with another charger, the screen is very itchy and irresponsive.
[Defy Android Development] gled:
Wifi does not connect anymore on rc1 with draft n router... Was working in rc0... strange is that i had to delete wpa_sypplicant.conf to have networks listed, there was no wifi networks listed before i delete that file ...
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Well thanks for the tomatoes-hehe.

I understand the risks involved very well and even if i'd brick my phone, I would never blame anyone directly here; I was a little upset by the situation (not at someone) and I think that I've expressed my regrets clearly more than once thereafter.

And yes, I did include a note about that matter in an email I sent to Ep3 regarding my open issue on Github.

We all good!?

Peace out.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
Yea, no problem, was sleeping anyway :p

new nighlty is working... report if you have to delete wpa_supplicant.conf or not :) i was already with the new modules, so no changes for me

Nice graphs :) Upload is the maximum speed i can have on my ISP (100Mb/5Mbps max here)
[Defy Android Development] MPAMPoULAs:
How to...

Do you guys know how to change the default launcher (ADW) before the install?

If I delete the “ADWLauncher.apk” from the “cm7.1.0-RC1-jordan-signed.zip\system\app” folder and put the .apk file from the launcher that I use. Would this works?

Sorry for my confused in my English.:D
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
Install one of your choice. You dont need to remove adw.
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
Like i say before i just receive my new Defy with Red Lens speaker of my green lens stop working .

I see that on Git : move alternative module versions in another subdir

I see :

177-5

179-2

234-134

When i compile the ROM how can i shose the version i read the read me but not find ? It's just because with red lens 234-134 work .

I would like to read here : http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Building_from_source but it's new that Defy is official .

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
Important edit!

did few experiments. maybe others are in the same situation:

i have a t-mo phone which has 850/1700/2100 bands.

my current carries has 900/2100.

what i thought, which is wrong, is that if i put european baseband i'll have better reception.

ITS WRONG!

now i made an experiment in a place where most of the time i don't have 2g:

i confirmed (settings-use only 2g) that i don't have 2g in that place.

moved to another place then had 2g.

then i switched baseband to t-mo 850/1700/2100 and voila! have 2G!!

don't know how, but it simply works...

so my suggestion:

KEEP THE SAME BASEBAND AS YOUR ORIGINAL DEFY CAME WITH!

questions are still relevant tho

does anyone know what is exactly the differences between same bands (900/2100) basebands?

are there any "sub-bands" or such?

another question:

my carrier don't have defy 2.2 so putting 2.1 files instead will work?

last one:

is there any log to see in which band i'm connected to the towers? if it's 900/1800?

i have t-mo us defy and couldn't get a final answer if it supports 900 or not (only 850)
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
New nightly installed, everything is business as usual.
[Defy Android Development] gled:
Quick question: can i restore wpa_supplicant bin from rc0 so I can get wifi working again ?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
...or not exactly as usual. Experienced disconnections on my work router, a cheap Huawei HG520c. It's set for WPA2-TKIP (AES) and is only capable of 802.11g.

Will also test in my home AP later.
[Defy Android Development] mick711:
I think the last new wifi driver is not very good, i can connect but connection is very slow than old driver . I just test at home .
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
defy wifi upload (from dropbear over SSH, crypted so) :
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
For now I'm keeping WiFi on more that I would normally use it, also restarted the router itself. Will not call it a bug yet until I can see this happening more times. Have not tested yet with my 802.11n AP either.
[Defy Android Development] sirdamnedone:
the videorecording still choppy in RC1 better than in RC0 but far away what was in froyo, but great works folks, all other functions works well :) we have widescreenphoto now :)
[Defy Android Development] dgboyz:
I am using RC1 and wifi is perfectly working.
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
I have problems with my proximity sensor. It happens me since I installed cm7. I though that it was a problem with the call mixed with the sensor, but its only the sensor. I am seeing with data monitor the sensor values and sometimes stuck at 0.
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
Hi Epsylon3 whatz up!

I saw that image and your clock is set to 24-hour format but it`s like " : " between hour and minutes not "h" like default.

How can I set it?

Thanx!
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
Did you try to flash stock rom to test hardware?

Maybe it can be hardware problem (sensor) not the application sets.
[Defy Android Development] dedraks:
Installed RC1 over RC0 here.

Steps:

1. Flash RC 1.

2. Flash gapps.

3. Wipe cache & dalvik cache.

4. Done.

RC1 is working like a charm.
[Defy Android Development] gled:
Hi epsilon3, this did not worked, i had to restore wpa_supplicant and wpa_cli from rc0. Current ones are broken with draft-n routers.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:

i also use a draft n router ;p) which was buggy, and dont have this problem.. never had this problem with the Mimo 300 one...
[Defy Android Development] Nizhu83:
Hello

I just installed RC1 and I haven´t widescreen photos. Is that okay?

Also do not like putting the microphone on the keyboard to talk sms. I'm from Argentina

thanks very much!!!!
[Defy Android Development] gled:
Mine is provided by a french provider, freebox v6 wpa2/aes ... I'll stick with these bins since new ones fails to connect. No issues so far... i can reproduce this bug by the way, just need to restore rc1 bins ... strange you don't have this issue...
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Personal log, StarDate 64806.25:

The WiFi problems seem to have occurred only the first time, did not happen for about an hour of continuous connection. The Huawei router will be retested again to be sure.

The Draft N AP at home does not appear to have any problems, no disconnections, normal speed.

Continuing at Warp 8.

:cool:

camera/settings button in the right/scroll down to the: 4 mpix (wide) and choose it-- that's the wide photo.
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
Well, I will test another rom when have enough time.

When the phone shut down ask to shut down or not, so I think that it should show a message "The phone will reboot" when it is going to reboot. I know that there was a menu asking how to reboot, which I think that was commented, to be properly implemented later, but I think that the confirmation dialog should be there.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
?!? or not... that doesnt works...

and there is a message "Restarting phone..."

Personal log, star date 110625.8 :

I tested all possible configurations in G and N wifi on 2 routers (Kernel 2.4 and Openwrt 2.6), and dont have any problem with lastest nighly... So you fbx v6 should have a config problem, or a brand compatiblity problem... maybe

So, ive an idea... a poll to check how many people have problems...

http://defy.tanguy.tk/polls/wifi.html
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
Or not, yes, it wasnt really needed, but I read sometime something about implement that later.

But what I say is like when you hit the shut down button, "The phone will shut down" (dont know what it says exactly, I have it in spanish) and you have an ok or cancel button. The restart option, if you hit it, says "Restarting phone..." and will restart, but cant stop it like when you are shutting down the phone.
[Defy Android Development] gled:
I think it's either wrong implementation of some spec, wrong config of fbx( too bad we dont have access ), or some bug somewhere that's being workarounded in previous wpa_supplicant... need to do some dumps to check ... i should also try latest nightly. I'll report as soon as i have some time !
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Damn, just got a disconnection on my home Draft N router. Phone was idle at the time, not download or upload, was just chatting on GTalk.
[Defy Android Development] Azimuth0r:
Hi guys. I softbricked my Defy and managed to get back to 3.4.3 blur.with root.

what is the recommended process to get back to RC1.

Do I still use 2nd-init?

Do I need to flash RC0 first?

(I did try posting this in general but I guess I'm too antsy to wait more than a few hours :P)

Thanks in advance.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I'm back to the latest BOOT179 nightly to force 179 modules. WiFi is more reliable in my setup with those, even IPv6 seems to work. With the new driver it works only upon connection and then loses the address.

I propose that the next nighlies just back up those modules during the upgrade so we can use what works better for each.
[Defy Android Development] Frunobulax:
I'm experiencing a nasty reset bug in RC1.

Phone hangs for something like 20 seconds, then shuts off. After a whole minute and half, it seems to soft reset.

I did it a couple of times already by entering the Gallery to change my wallpaper, and trying some functions at random.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
rmmmmmmm :mad:
[Defy Android Development] RexXxuS:
Hmm... with RC1 I had finally 5 bad freezes. I must pull out the battery to fix. Don't know why... it runed great before...?!

But the new nightly are great in WLAN for me. Have 2 pixel more in WLAN Icon ;)
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yea, ... maybe we should replace RC1 ;) there was almost no update from cyanogen since RC1 release
[Defy Android Development] kruppin:
In a leaked update to the atrix they found how to unlock the bootloader.. Isn't it possible for us to use the same kind of "trick" to access fastboot? It would make things easier, wouldn't it? Be able to flash custom kernels and such? But probably it wont work, cuz this is OMAP and atrix is Tegra, but it would be nice. :) Hopefully it won't take long for such a update to be released for our phone too.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
atrix bootloader is not same.. ours is based on X-Loader (seen in sources)

there is a repo for omap dev boards here :

https://gitorious.org/x-load-omap3/mainline/trees/master
[Defy Android Development] Bumble99:
In need of some help - tried to go from RC0 to RC1 via following steps:

- Nandroid backup.

- Reboot

- Boot into Custom Recovery

-Clear Cache

- Clear Dalvic Cache

- Apply RC1 zip

- Apply Gapps zip

- Reboot

Got stuck on red Motorola screen.

Pulled battery and pressed Volume down at blue LED

Now when I try go to stable recovery or Latest recovery I get the following error:

E:Error in /system/bootmenu/script/recovery_stable.sh

(Result: No such file or directory)

Can someone assist?
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
hmm dunno how you can have bootmenu and not the recovery... weird

the easiest way is to reflash nordic or 179 sbf (almost same version)

the intelligent way is to use adb from bootmenu to access shell and see why...
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
Keyan Mobli	1:07 AM (kmobs)

Droid2 device incoming too :)

their repo is here : https://github.com/JBirdVegas
[Defy Android Development] Bumble99:
Could it be that I pulled the battery before it was finished installing? I left it on the Moto logo for about 10 minutes. Is there any way to fix it from the adb shell? Or will I still have to start from Nordic?

And finally, if I want to reflash Nordic will I go to Moto recovery and do a reset from there?
[Defy Android Development] zzj0402:
Is RC1 capable of downgrading? And is RC1 able for future upgrade?

I am using 2.2.1 stock room and stock recovery. I want to flash the RC1 but not sure what should I do if there comes the final release of CM.And I do not wish to stay in this RC1 forever,since this rom appears as not so "stable" as an official release should be.Also,I am not quite clear about the wiping process.Will stock recovery do it?
[Defy Android Development] Dark_Plasma:
I had this happen once didnt do anything different than i do every night when i flash nightly. i had to start from scratch.
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
You need to spend some time playing with your phone. That will address the recovery doubt

Then, please try it - this whole distribution has been quick and rock stable - I've even tried the MIUI which was nice but had enough quirks and lots of force closes. I put CM7 on my phone on the 3rd day I had it, and not even harbored any doubts about going back to stock!!

I can tell you how the water feels and how deep it is, but you must take the plunge.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
OK, a little off topic but since battery usage seems to be reccurent topic, I thought I'd share some of my observations again.

1- I still see unexplained high current (mA) demand spikes on my battery monitoring graphs; the last one happened a few minutes ago when my phone has been just sitting there for most of the morning. I turned on the screen and saw 280mA usage straight out of standby - wtf!!??? [see 2 pics]

2- Have you guys ever noticed that xda (tapatalk) application is a very power hungry one? Not only when browsing forum threadsd, but worst than that: I just observed that even if I logged out from it AND choosed the "Exit" option, it stays in memory and is still very active. It tops my cpu usage application list [see pic] with an almost constant 2-4% usage... Damn! when I choose "exit", "quit" or whatever, I expect an app to be dead not running in background and taxing CPU and battery.

3- I noticed a lot of entries in my logcat verbose about ads lately and I have been wondering what was that all about. Well, I just saw that process/thread 11336 is in fact related to Process Monitor Widget itself.... So the bugfix in Battery Monitor Widget (that I mentioned a few threads ago) might also be required in this monitoring apk as well... It is from the same dev afterall... But that app should not be used in permanence anyway as catlogging takes some juice...ad problem or not.

All that was recorded on RC0 --> for the guy reporting getting only a few hours on standby with it... So almost a full day for half the battery used with some pretty decent uptime yesterday...I don't find that bad at all!!!
[Defy Android Development] zzj0402:
Thanks for reply but,no offensive,plz be direct.

MIUI is totally based on CM,just some commercials make it worse

I do NOT like stock at all. I'm not here suggesting switching to those blured creeps.They should only used by motolora's sluggish employer,who want suck all money from his product user.

Think the step 3 is going to recovery.Or I should install second initial(this should be what Quarx means by bootmenu,so here to make sure)

Just want to know will stock recovery do the data wiping for this rom then I need not install second initial(or bootmenu,someone plz make me clear whatever it should be called).

Have checked some news saying that the second initial conflicted with the one built inside the rom itself if version is different.

I think this porting is on its beta phase.Fast though but not rock solid(in that case should make it final release.)
[Defy Android Development] Bumble99:
Yip I fear that I may have to do that. I have never had to it before, first time for everything.

Once I have gone back to the Nordic Rom do I follow the steps for a fresh install of RC1 exactly or will CWM and 2ndInit still be there?
[Defy Android Development] Bumble99:
**** I just realized what may have gone wrong with my update. When I backed up my apps with Titanium I turned usb debugging on and I think I forgot to turn it off before flashing RC1. Would that have caused any issues?
[Defy Android Development] cy_lee96:
Excuse me may I know which of the gapps should I flash in order to flash the latest RC1 CM7? Thx :)
[Defy Android Development] zzj0402:
http://www.miui.com/thread-139198-1-1.html

This miui page says that flash RC1 to ME525 with official Chinese rom will lead to dead flash light.(Should be same effect to MB525 flashed with Chinese SBF ;said there is a major change to devtree,this leads to it)

Can it be fixed?
[Defy Android Development] Dark_Plasma:
Cwm and 2ndInit wont be there you will have reroot install 2nd init 1.4 then flash RC1 it sucks I know
[Defy Android Development] Dark_Plasma:
i allways have usb debugging on and i update every night so i dont think that caused your problem.
[Defy Android Development] Dark_Plasma:
Flash the Gapps from the first post flash them after flashing the rom
[Defy Android Development] rdel67:
Hi guys. With rc1, my wifi doesn't find access points.

:(
[Defy Android Development] Dark_Plasma:
there quite a few posts talking about that issue look back a page or three
[Defy Android Development] solitsnake:
is it possible to see a changelog of the Nightly Builds?

sure, its alot little changes, but maybe a overview of the bigger changes.
