Epsylon3 said don`t need install BOOT nightly, just flash sbf and after install RC1V2 before install last nigthly.

In your case, try to install RC1V2 and than install last nightly.
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
I did exactly what you've done. (Froyo + cm7-110729-2323-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip)

This method work nice here, so I think you can do it without 179boot.
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
Why is RC1V2 necessary before nightly? I flashed nightly right after Froyo and it seems everyting works fine.
[Defy Android Development] vjun:
Hi, guys,

Just changed my Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 to a Defy.

The phone is awesome and CM7 RC1 (installed yesterday) is working awesomely so far.

Just a little question: on CPU settings, I have three options for frequency. 300, 600 and 1000Mhz. Defy processor is 800Mhz, if I set "performance" (because some games are quite slow, like Fruit Ninja), is it too riskful? Is there any way to set it to 800Mhz?

Thanks in advance,

V.
[Defy Android Development] drakeM:
I didn't understand you: you said fruit ninja is quite slow and then you ask how to downclock to 800mhz. What is the sense of this?
[Defy Android Development] drakeM:
anyway, is there a way to make 720p recordings with green lens on cm7? Is it really possible that green lens haven't enough hardware capabilities to record at 720p???
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
Just to explain why I said about install BOOT before install nightly, see post # 9247 and # 9506 from Epsylon.

I was wrong when I did think you need BOOT.zip after RC1V2.

You need install RC1V2 before the last nightly to upgrade kernels and/or modules.

If I`m still wrong, please explain about.
[Defy Android Development] vjun:
Sorry, it is quite confuse. Let me try again:

By default, CPU setting is "ONDEMAND". Sometimes the game is fine, but most of time is slow. I think that setting it to "PERFORMANCE" can improve it, but I am afraid of setting it to PERFORMANCE, it stays in 1GHZ forever and cause any damage.

Thanks,

V.
[Defy Android Development] traxo:
don't worry, there is no risk. the Defy's CPU is actually downclocked by motorola to 800MHz. it's "normal" clock is 1000MHz. however, running it at 1000MHz all the time will drain your battery much faster.

You're right: you did not do anything insulting or offensive in those posts, but did I in my last post?

Sorry if my 2nd last sentence offended you; it was a joke of questionable taste maybe [hence my last remark about being calm], but believe me, my words were well chosen ;) What's wrong with "flash yourself another rom" ?? Or it is the word "freaking" that cause problem?

I just remind you that repeating the same question over and over [even in a kindly manner] can get very annoying [and yes I was annoyed] and at the limit considered as spam and/or irrespectful of the forum rules and of the hard working devs. But I think you got that already.

Are we cool?

Peace out.
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
don't do it here, it's annoying also.
[Defy Android Development] drakeM:
ok, alright, traxo answered you. Anyway, i tried fruit ninja too and it works fine for me, maybe 1 or 2 little lags sometimes but not so often. Maybe you have another problem not related with overclock settings.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Well, you sure have been trying hard at making me lose my calm on this thread.

If I had time, I would gladly bring you proof that you gave erroneous answers here before and that the value of most of your posts is very questionable as well. So don't give lessons on smelling other people's asses. Putting you're smilly faces here in this one doesn't make it look more intelligent either.

If I'm such of no help in this thread, why did I get those 20 'thanks' for and tell me, who brought up the mp4 video playback issues up [among others]?

I'm glad to help whenever I can here and I also don't mind speaking my mind when I find that something is innapropriate. I don't think that your post has any more value than mine and you are clearly being irrespectful.
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
OK, now I am on way.

Froyo + RC1V2 (because of kernel/module upgrade) + last nightly release ---> it's the right method to be up-to-date ?

or

Froyo + last BOOT release + last nightly release ---> also works to be up-to-date?

or

Froyo + RC1V2 + last BOOT release + last nightly release ---> is the right to be up-to-date?

Which one is the right way to be on time with CM7?

I am on the latest 110729-0115-BOOT179-Jordan (which installs the 179-2 kernel from Apr 15.) + 110729-2323-NIGHTLY nightly.

Now, if I want to go back to the 179-4 kernel can I:

Option 1) just re-install 110723-1251-BOOT179-4 and 110729-2323-NIGHTLY on top of it

Option 2) or should I start over with flashing nordic, install RC1v2 (and/or 110723-1251-BOOT179-4) and then 110729-2323-NIGHTLY?

I think option 1 should be fine. Am I correct?

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
Froyo + last BOOT release + last nightly release ---> also works to be up-to-date? I think so.
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
I can't stand the Wi-Fi on this rom anymore.. it's just frustrating.. I had a problem with the Wi-Fi a few weeks ago, it started with having some problems that were solved with turning off and back on the device/only the wi-fi or just forgetting the network I want to connect to, and then suddenly it just stopped working. Then I installed the 11/07/11 nightly, and it worked perfect, but then again, after a week just stopped working. I installed the nightly all over again, and again it worked good for a week, and then stopped working, tried the same method again, and this time it took it a day, since then tried again a couple of times and it just didn't work from the very beginning. So I really have no idea what to do anymore.. I was thinking of extracting a wi-fi driver from another ROM, but I have no idea how to it and where do I get that driver from... can someone help me?
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
OK, than I will try this method.

Another one: Froyo must be nordic or can be last cee too?

I have this one --> Moto_Version.34.179.2.MB525.Retail.en.CEE

thanks for answers anyway
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
it doesnt matter wat froyo u flash first...anyways u r installing BOOT179 nightly which will change the kernel to CEE179 one..
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Thanks Ricardo,

So, if I really decided to start over from scratch, do I need to restore a nandroid of my stock rom first or can I just boot into stock recovery, wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and flash nordic and then reinstall CM7?
[Defy Android Development] drakeM:
a question: do i have to wipe data if i would pass from cm7 to MIUI?
[Defy Android Development] Terranalon:
Yes, you do, also wipe cache and preferably also dalvik cache.
[Defy Android Development] drakeM:
Ok, thank you ;)
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
The best way is flash rom again, then install following the 2nd step from FAQ.

Remember that you need wipe from stock recovery before flash new rom.

Sorry for bad English.
[Defy Android Development] chab7:
What is the difference if I have JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_CEE.sbf original on defy and I flash:

1. cm7.1.0-RC1-jordan-signed.zip -> cm7-110730-2357-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip

or

2. cm7-110729-0115-BOOT179-Jordan.zip -> cm7-110730-2357-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip

or

3. cm7-110730-2357-NIGHTLY-Jordan.zip only

Do I even need cm7.1.0-RC1-jordan-signed.zip or cm7-110729-0115-BOOT179-Jordan.zip if I have JRDNEM_U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_CEE.sbf on the phone?

Because this froyo has boot 179, so what else is in these (method 1 and 2) cm7 versions? Or maybe I can flash latest nightly only if I have this originally froyo?

Hello!

in MIUI forums someone said that Cyanogen has fancy rotation screen effect, and I'm looking about that here but I can't found anything. Anyone can confirm that??

Sorry if sound rude, but I google about it and use the xda-developers. But anywhere I found nothing....

Thank you!

[Defy Android Development] Andrew-droid:
I would just ask anything you want. You can ignore the user, can't you? Like a function on the forum? The other guy could ignore you as well, who cares. ;)

It's possible to tune the brightness of the auto regulation on the device. It's in cyanogen mod settings in the settings menu. Then get into display and then automatic backlight.

Play with it a bit and you can get the hang of it, not so hard.

Cheers!

[Defy Android Development] Need_Good_ID:
on the topic of "fancy rotation" , I recalled someone posted a screenshot of it a while back here.

It was from the spare parts apps in CM7, but I don't think any of the version of CM7 had that option. or it could be an ss from another phone which also uses CM7 , and fancy rotation could be enabled?
[Defy Android Development] superfastmonkey:
For fancy rotation, try Anim Mod from the market, I have flip animation set, I can use it on any rom. Well worth $1.50 or so.
[Defy Android Development] TweetyPeety:
HI,

I try to ask here because I think CM7 latest has also the new CWM 4.0.1.4 with Bootmenu 1.0

I done always some scripting in the updater-script during the installation of a custom rom. It worked flawless until now. Do somebody know if they changed something with mounting oder other stuff.

for example I wanted to do a full wipe with the installation of my Rom and done it like this...::

ui_print("Bereinige System Ordner...");
#format("yaffs2", "MTD", "system");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");
delete_recursive("/system");
delete_recursive("/data");
delete_recursive("/dbdata");
set_progress(0.300000);

another think is copying some files on the data/app folder

ui_print("Extra Apps werden installiert ..... 3/4");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "userdata", "/data");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
set_perm_recursive(1000, 1000, 0771, 0644, "/data/app");
unmount("userdata");

doesn't work either.

Has somebody an IDEA, and more over I would like to know what to write in the script to delete dalvik cache and normal cache.

WOULD BE AWESOME

[Defy Android Development] dtevegas:
thanks - you're right this link works perfectly
[Defy Android Development] dtevegas:
maybe they had seen the effect whereby, when you rotate the screen, some widgets auto rotate. for eg my very old fancy widget (the since removed exact copy of the sense clock widget) rotates and stretches when horizontal. it's not perfect but looks good.

a htc desire does not do this, the clock just stays in the same position (unless you have a desire z rom)

i'm using miui rom, but it can't recorder call, it only 1 voice input, can this rom fix this problem?
[Defy Android Development] SpawNyK:
I like the implementation of CrystalTalk in the latest nightlys.

And i was wondering If you devs could add some more stuff from other defy roms like :

1) Call recorder from chineese rom.

If you try to install it via CWM in CM7 you will get a boot loop so be careful.

2) Stock alarm moto blur alert screen

This one is really nice, i install it every time i get a new nightly.
[Defy Android Development] thenext1:
Is there anywhere I can report a bug?

I had a problem that after setting the phone in airplane mode it wouldn't come back, ask the pin, see the SIM card, nothing.

As i read on a french forum, if you turn off the lockscreen altogether, you will not get asked for the PIN. It all boils down to that.

So here it is: If the lockscreen is turned off in CM7 settings - tablet settings, no SIM pin gets asked after a reboot or a switch in airplane mode, effectively rendering the phone useless.

Is there any fix for this? I don't like having a lockscreen, where we also have one of the most inaccessible power button in the market. Seems like a waste of time to me, to have to doubly-unlock the phone every time.

thank you
[Defy Android Development] pomah:
This is not a bug, I reported this many pages before, it's just how this "hack" works, if you want to disable the lockscreen you wont be able to enter pin.

But it's a 10 sec operation if you need to enter the pin, settings>cyanogenmod>tablet tweaks>lockscreen off > turn of the screen, turn on the screen, enter pin, turn off lockscreen again.
[Defy Android Development] Kiristiba:
i would call it a bug, too, as it is clearly not a feature ^^

it's ok when it is a known problem of the existing hack and hard to fix

but you can not say that every hard to fix problem is not a bug ^^

[Defy Android Development] mick711:
For Call Recorder it's not new, some cyanogen devs think it's out of low and don't make it . I don't know why exactly because my old N97 have this .

It's possible that i use other rom if i can't use recorder because it's very usefull when i call and don't have paper .

With last Nightly i have a problem this morning when i go to my contact and click on call, it's ok for call but Defy is on the contact screen and don't go to phone screen .

thanks

And sorry for english :o
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Please report CM7 bugs that are not related to the Defy port to the CM/ bug tracker.
[Defy Android Development] thenext1:
In Eclair you could disable the lock screen and still be prompted for the PIN.

In Froyo, I don't know if it's a bug, if you chose to disable the lockscreen it still required you to swipe right.

Maybe this bug (let's call it with its name) is Froyo-related.

Anyway I won't die for that.

I was just reporting.

-- UPDATE --

I found a bug with the nightly : cm7-110729-0115-BOOT179-Jordan.zip

Ive lost my OC settings, and, the cpu remains with 99% ~ 100% use ALL THE TIME, even if i dont doing anything.
[Defy Android Development] Jaflo:
Quarx and Epsylon3 thanks for all your hard work.

I was wondering if it's possible to implement an option to assign hardware buttons for turning on/off the screen rotation? Something like pressing volume up and down at the same time to turn this option on and off?
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
Upgrade to last nightly wiping cache before install.

No rec videos freezing and OC is working normal.

BTW I changed OC values for 300/18 700/35 1000/50 and now can save more battery since cm7-110727-2117-NIGHTLY-Jordan.

Don`t know why, when OC was 300/18 600/30 1000/54 cpu almost never use 600MHz.

12 hours of usage, deep sleep taked 4h 300/4h45min 600/5min 1000/3h10min

Looks like the cpu use 300(low usage) or 1000(hight and very hight usage) and 600 isn`t enought

I think OC could have 4 values like 300,600,800 and 1000 to saves more battery.

Is it possible?!
[Defy Android Development] krustbr:
I know the 4 values are able to set through SetVsel only, by the bootloader i dont think so.

And i tried to wipe cache and install the lastet nightly, but when i try to record some video, the rec button turns green, and the app freezes(dont the video, just the app) and i need to perform a forced close. Any help?

The OC is now OK im using:

1. 300 - 27vsel

2. 700 - 34vsel

3. 1200 - 57vsel

up threshold 81%
[Defy Android Development] RDrg:
after wiping cache and dalvik cache before install videos are still made ​​with interruptions, not always...

my OC settings are 21/300, 38/600, 52/1000 Smartass ;)

I thought it would be OK!
[Defy Android Development] Ricardo_Is:
If cpu usage stay 99~100% all time it`s can be the cause of camcoder frezze.

Think the better way to solve your problem quicky is make install from begginer or try to seach which app is making system unstable.

You've already have 179 kernel, so you don't need to flash a boot version.

Since ive wiped dalvik and cache, the phone is unstable, reboots, 100% of cpu usage, and stuffs like that. :(
[Defy Android Development] Dewman4life:
Wiping cashe and dalvik won't cause a bootloop, with your cpu running at 100%, that is where your problem lies. Try changing your cpu settings as they may not be right for your phone. Hope this helps
