my vote goes to the pics in zip 'googlegray' or 'googlegrayred'. and yeah, with all the quarx&ep3&cm7 logos it looks too crowded.

[Defy Android Development] chab7:
Probably after RC2 ;)

but RC1,5 is next in near future.

Please how to block calls from private number in CM7v2?

In call setting I can add numbers to block, but how can i block a private number?

Thanks!!

Is possible to build a CM7 on Windows environment? What tools do I need to have?
[Defy Android Development] thiagold:
Ok, I will try to build a virtual machine. Ill be possible that way?

i can send to webmoney if you want... the paypal fees for receiver are same for 5 or 10$ .. 0.5$

but your problem with the bookreader is weird... did you try to reinstall it ?
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Yes i reinstalled twice. I made a whole factory reset from cwm reinstalled the 110817 nightly and installed only the aldiko. Then uninstalled removed the sd card and reinstalled aldiko. The same problems in logcat. Gone back to 110813 nightly then no problem. So i had no else idea than to blame the nightly. Ok then i send you quarkxes money and thank you all for your hard work:-)
[Defy Android Development] TimelesslyPrecise:
Has anyone seen the latest adw launcher ex?

This puppy is slick.. I have always liked adwex, now it's getting better and better.

You can now drop folders on the desktop, the bottom bar.. Custom pictures and all... You also have several slick desk bar themes to choose from.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
so if it is recent it could be related to mass storage usb... we are still working on that.. but ive seen no new problem for the moment...
[Defy Android Development] thiagold:
Ok... I think I'm going well so far...

I'm installing Ubuntu now... What will be next step?
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
I have sent the same amount for you once again. Please send what remains after the fees to quarx. THX in advance:-) And thx for your hard work!!!

did another test I installed aldiko on 110813 and it worked installed 110817 and just wiped cache. Then rebooted and the same error with aldiko. So i am sure it is something usb or OMAP HW.. or something totally different:-) too few raving rabbids:-)

Epsylon3 what do you think about 64k cluster size for the sdcard solving preview freezes for me while recording?
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
That's the overscroll color patch (again). Epsylon3, do you now agree to remove it for RC? ;)

Thanks a lot :)
[Defy Android Development] cy_lee96:
Oops in fact I mean when the rc2 will be released... :S

Oh sorry about that I just hope to flash CM7 when it's fully prepared and functioned. I have used CM7 before but I found the battery drain is soooooo large and I flashed to another ROM. But, still, CM7 is the fastest ROM among all :)
[Defy Android Development] cy_lee96:
I wanna ask which one do u think is the best one, what nightly build or RC1? Thanks so much :)
[Defy Android Development] remuseu:
rc1 from first post is in fact the nightly 110813 witch is most stabe one so far untill now
[Defy Android Development] ankit360:
hope we soon see final release
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
I vote 0814 nightly for best battery usage and performance.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
ok, now i see the problem... i was on my phone when i read it and was difficult to read.. no indentation

so yea, i will be able to fix the problem :p but i want to keep the new overscroll (in fact official defy repo doesnt have it but...)
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
Then I test it when it is ready:-) thx now that I figured out what caused video freezes I have no serious bugs remaining:-) I could say it is more stable than stock and has less bugs except a couple hiccups in nightlys:-) thank you all:-)

Is it worth it to put CM7 RC1 v2 as a replace for official 2.2.2 CEE retail...or to wait a final release ?
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Hang on a sec!! Am I misinterpreting here or you are saying that you've fixed the video recording frame freeze problem by formatting your SD card differently?

If so, how can I try that?

Can I just dump everything from my µSD card to my desktop, reformat the SD (and somehow change its cluster size allocation) and then redump everything back on?

What apk or program do you use to do that?

I'm still using the camera and the lib encoder files from July11th nightly because any newer build give much more frame freezes...so I'm eager to find this out.
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
@AL

I just did this by reformatting the SD card in windows. There you can choose the block size. You need to take the SD card out of the phone and put it in a microSD card reader or similar.

I have two defy's - one with green/soc and one with red/bayer lense. The videos taken on my green lense defy on once in a while show choppiness, lags and frame freezes.

However, on my red lense defy there are no freezes, but the videos look worse because moving objects are not smoothly moving by on the video, they move by choppy.

How's the video quality for other red lense owners? Are you experiencing similar issues? Any hints of how to fix it?

I'm on cm7-110813-2132-NIGHTLY FWIW.
[Defy Android Development] remuseu:
red lens owner and i can confirm video is choppy on every nightly i tested

strangely i did not try on stock rom to see if there is smooth..what can i say, addicted to custom roms :D
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
I did try on US 2.2.1 stock froyo and the are not choppy on both green and red lense defys.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
You also build yourself cyanogen ? :)

[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
new nightly has new boot logo? :D
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
are you asking or are you telling? cos i'd love any of those various images people uploaded for boot splash screen :)

so if you are telling awesome, if you are asking then i don't think it has the splash screen cos if it did it would be a boot nightly right?
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
new nightly 110818-1913 is up:)
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
hmm euh in fact the logo is inside but not installed..

will be in RC1.5...
[Defy Android Development] espaciosalter20:
test it and tell us if have the new logo :D
[Defy Android Development] espaciosalter20:
ok... im not GOING TO ASK FOR ETA! lol, but... you have been promoting the new version a few days ago, so it's make us excited about it!

Creating a Development Environment

I really like to have a development enviromenment to try once help this amazing product.

I'm already a software developer, but only strong with Microsoft technologies.

So, I'm asking for support about create a way to build ROMs with you guys.

At this time I only have a virtual machine running Ubuntu 11.

What's next?

[Defy Android Development] Kaffeekranz:
I'm still really unsatisfied with the scrolling speed, or the hiccups during scrolling.
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
@Kaffeekraenzchen

Where exactly do you experience the scrolling issues?

I just installed cm7-110817-1717-BOOT179 + cm7-110818-1913-NIGHTLY and didn't notice anything.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
I experience some problem when wifi tether is enabled... something is still not perfect...

but for the scrolling speed... look like faster than RC1 ;p even with the overscrolls
[Defy Android Development] Kaffeekranz:
Mostly when navigating through the menus. Everything else is as smooth as it could be, but about 3 nightlies ago it started for me.

There was someone else around here who had the same problem.. could also be my fault of course, but it seems like a strange coincidence.

/e

Meh, alright then, I'll do a fresh install.

/e2

Okay, it seemed to be the theme's fault.

Reset to stock theme and everything's fine now.. so it was a coincidence after all, I'm sorry. :o
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
@Epsylon3

I noticed that the cm7-110817-1717-BOOT179-Jordan is now listed in Rom Manager.

The description says the this build will NOT upgrade the kernel. I assume this is a typo, right?
[Defy Android Development] vick33:
I build when I have time, but now i have near zero time. I am ****ty in Java I am better in native linux. I try the nightly now if the overscroll bug is still present:-) signal back when my girlfriend lets:-)

Edit: No more bug with aldiko. So seems like it is fixed:-)
[Defy Android Development] antony.ps:
There are lot of tutorials on how to compile CyanogenMod on linux, you will only have to adapt some things to Defy. Here one:

i now have the latest 1913-its working fine.didnt really notice any difference too.

110817-1717-BOOT179 & cm7-110818-1913-NIGHTLY

whats the difference between these 2..any specifics?

[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
Last boot and nightly make battery drain more than used to be and let battery hot.

Checking the battery stats Android OS use more battery than Display and it never happened with my device.

And had FC on Aldiko also.

Backing to 110811 nightly, and till now Android OS is normal battery usage like used to be.

EDIT: Did make a fresh install and all seems ok, just Aldiko app get FC.
[Defy Android Development] Khrushy:
For me, the battery drain was to do with the Overclock (or more correctly the Undervolt) settings in the boot menu. The default settings had undervolted the CPU a bit too much, causing it to make some background services crash, which then put the CPU usage to 100%. Raising Vsel1 and Vsel2 by a couple of notches fixed it for me (Vsel3 seemed to be fine).
[Defy Android Development] hailmary:

im on the last nightly 1913...my defy have lots of apps n junks but its got:

Why someone refer nightly to hour-minute number (ex. 1913) not the date (ex. 110818)??? OK never mind, but it would be expert referring to date.

(For the next posts: I know what the numbers mean, that's why I wrote my ask)
[Defy Android Development] remuseu:
it is refering to date: 0814 means 14 august..and the devs post the full 110814 and some other 4 letters witch i dont know where they come from
[Defy Android Development] UEman:
The other 4 numbers refer to the time.
[Defy Android Development] sp8y:
110818-1913 nightly seems very stable for me. Installed it last night & there's no errors, no force closes & no lag etc.

I have gone back to the 179-4 kernel as this is giving me faster wifi than the most recent BOOT179 build - it's faster to load things like news, tapatalk, internet browser etc than the newest boot nightly?

Overall very happy with my current set up & very well done again to the devs, Quarx, Epy3 & Maniac :)

i was referring to the date (0814), sorry for being lazy and not writing 110814, thought it was clear, since all nightlies were released in 2011. (seems it wasnt clear for everyone -.-) hope you didnt think i referred to the nightly with the time it was uploaded.
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
@devs:

could you please include panorama and something like SEs bestpic (takes multiple pictures at once) settings to the camera? (or maybe shutter time too :)) it would be really great!

EDIT: found the name of multiple pictures at once: burst mode. just thought id share :P
[Defy Android Development] RDrg:
I'll prefer for the Camera the Kodak Perfect Picture feature... it would be great!
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
all of them would make our little defy quite feature rich (camera-wise i mean). would be so cool! :)
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
talking of camera, has anyone ever noticed a bug where the camera saves a completely black image if the flash is on? I'm on the latest boot nightly...110817.

I haven't searched or researched the issue yet, just throwing the q at you guys first
[Defy Android Development] sebx_g1:
Have the same problem ...
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
No stress Zakoo2; I believe that the post was directed toward posts #10299 and #10303... and not yours ;)

I've almost almost submitted the exact same comment but changed my mind. For some reason, I thought that it would be a lost cause...

How goes that saying again? Don't try to teach new tricks to an old monkey?
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:

[Defy Android Development] vgowtham97:
Can we use any 720p recording patch in this ROM?
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Idea!

Why don't keep camera app simple. There are a lot of problems with it. Some of them reported already but until now without any solution. And too few people have a red lens Defy. The majority of user Defy have green lens. And if 7xxp recording is a hardware limitation, I prefer a stable VGA.

I'd like a bug-free CM7 instead of full-stuffed feature but bugged ROM. Really...

Until now, the process should recover lost functions from Moto stock ROM: Crystal Talk (already done), tethering (in process), DLNA etc. Also the camera stability. It's annoying to receive a call during a video recording>Camera FC>corrupted video file (instead of interrupted) and camera wouldn't start until phone reboot.
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
okay i flashed the boot sea nightly followed by the 110818, and the problem remained. Then i wiped camera data with TiBkup and it went away :)

lesson:

if app doesn't work, wipe data of app, if it still doesn't work restart, if it still refuses to work flash new nightly.
[Defy Android Development] thiagold:
I have a doubt.

In a Nightly version, the features of a RC version are stable?

In other words, are all features on Nightly version stable, except the new features?

i dont get it why the defy is not officially supported on cyanogenmod.com

it is the 3rd most downloaded device...

they w8 for another rc to come out for more stability and then will they support it or u guys are in some kind of a conflict ?

i was just curious, and i dont think there will be pigs flying once the defy will be officially supported
[Defy Android Development] kaljam:
mine works perfect. I think you should take a look under settings/cynogenmod/display/automatic backlight/

and select use custom.

Then go to edit "other levels". There you can set sensor level, Screen light and if button ligth is on or off. Just change buttons from "0" to "1".

Better performance wifi with http://defycm7.tanguy.tk/cm7-110818-1913-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip than the last http://defycm7.tanguy.tk/cm7-110819-1459-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip who have poor performance :(

Wifi is a big problem for cyanogen .
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
i think it is because of the locked bootloader, they cant do much about it either. and why build a cm7 port from scratch when we already have a nice almost perfectly stable one? personally i dont give a damn about it being official or not as long as it works the way it should...

sent from my cm7 defy...
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
Yes, my post was not directed to Zakoo2. It was directed to people referring nightlies by time like 1917 and not date like 0818 or 110818.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
OK!

For wifi module, it is simply a question of replacing the "tiwlan_drv.ko" file in /system/lib/modules folder by another one of your choice (ie: extracted from another build zip).

It's easily done with RootExplorer but don't forget to set the ownership (very last option after long press on the file) to root:root, and the permissions to 644 (rw-r--r--) and reboot before testing.

But personally, I haven't got much luck with that and don't remember noticing any improvement of worsening in trying 7 or 8 different wifi 'modules'.

As for the kernel, well I'll leave it to others to explain [but it was discussed somewhere here less than 2 weeks ago if I'm not mistaken].

Edit: you could also have went through ccav2000 posts list and find this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15541454&postcount=8455

Edit2: you might also be interested in reading this: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14987212&postcount=7151

interesting :rolleyes:...very helpful. :D
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
So I finally managed to debug both these issues.

a. The proximity sensor was malfunctioning simply because I did the stupidity of installing a screen guard atop it. I bought it for $1 (3 pieces, shipped to India) so thought what the heck, put it :D - but I was so wrong. I cut out a piece of the screen guard covering the sensor and its back to normal. Phew!!

The clue came via: https://supportforums.motorola.com/message/281798 which helped me realize that the faint red light was not a fault signal but an IR lamp :D

b. The screen issue is not there in old nightlies and interestingly, it came up shortly after I bought a cheap new charger (left the motorola one somewhere) which charged the phone very fast (think 60% + in an hour) but the touchscreen used to be slightly crazy and less responsive (as written below) while the phone was being charged. Donno why. I would have to disconnect it , lock and unlock the phone for the touchscreen to work fine. Nowadays I am charging with the USB cable from the laptop - it gives no such issues. (plus Im back on beta6!). touch wood. life is good again.

EDIT: A question - Which in-car charger do you folks use? I am getting http://in.shopblackberry.com/Product/BlackBerryVehiclePowerChargermicroUSB12V/ACC-18083-201 for USD 16 from a retailer (prices have dropped!) but am not sure how "rapidly" it can charge. Kindly advise. thx!
