[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
There is nothing to check, it started doing it today, after I installed the 09/11 nightly.

EDIT: note that I do use custom setting for display brightness and buttons, but this is NOT caused but alternating settings, I checked. With constant button backlight values, it still flickers.
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Well, I think I'll skip this nightly. Thanks for reporting.

Nightly from 8 made me some problems with freezing: the phone start to work in slow-motion. I suspect an app (Green Power) because the phone starts to be slow when I wake it and GP enable WiFi and APN.

Now, I use Juice Defender to see if that problem persists.

I'm waiting for 11.11.11 nightly. Hope there will be some bug fixes (like headset button bug).
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
I see there are 2 nightlies out today. Are you having problems with the latter?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I observed the issue with cm71-111109.0730-NIGHTLY-Defy, I didn't notice the second one! I will try it now since you mention it.
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
Thanks. Good to know. I'm also downloading the second one.
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
I've just observed that the nightly from 8 November have the flicker bug problem but I think it's not so often.

Please report how it's the second nightly posted today. Thanks
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
hmm, perhaps the bug is from yesterday indeed and I may not have noticed.

cm71-111109.1032-NIGHTLY-Defy stills has the bug, whatever was changed there is not affecting the button backlight flickering.
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
No problems detected here on 111109.1032. Nice to see the DSP settings and the audio effects in the same menu now.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I experimented a bit with the button backlight values, the flicker or blink problem is only visible at high intensity, like 192, and only if the phone of left idle for some seconds. If you use the phone at the time (like typing text, or scrolling the screen) it doesn't happen.

The blink happens within few msecs, it's almost like something tries to dim the button backlight only to get overridden immediately after. Perhaps this will help the devs drugging it.
[Defy Android Development] mineIsAlreadyTaken:
The flickering is best observed in the menu where you edit the light levels, while the brightness is going up or down. It flickers in sync with the value "sample interval" of the light sensor filter. If you set the sample interval to 0.5 secs, it flickers every 0.5 secs while the filtered sensor value is increasing / decreasing.

To recreate, cover the light sensor with your finger and behold! the buttons flicker. :cool:
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
Confirmed. I up the brightness and sure enough, the flickering started.
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Did not experience the keypad backlight flickering on cm71-111109.0730 here - had no problem with Nov 8th either. But din't push too hard to reproduce it I admit... and mainly only use one screen intensity (14%) - no auto/adjustment to display or buttons.

But I thought that the Nov 9 nightly was including this commit. I guess it was not because my logcats are still filled with "getRssiApprox()" messages when wifi is on [pics] - only the warning type changed.

I can now see that it has been deleted as well; so yes there was probably a problem with it...downloading the cm71-111109.1032 now... wow 2 nightly builds testing in one day! a first for me I believe..

Thanks again Maniac for the fix on camera with that commit; awesome stuff.

[Defy Android Development] tecjam:
Ever since early November nightlies my favorite app keeps forceclosing. Works fine on 111030, but crashes on 111102 and onwards. Here is the log.

I am currently on 111108.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Here I am again, with a more severe problem to report this time:

09/11/2011 nightly has big chance to fail at boot, loosing data in the process. Because of that I had to wipe.

The interesting thing is that hanged at boot right after the wipe! I think this problem was reported already a few days ago, people reported they had to pull the battery.

Wiping the Dalvik Cache is not enough. At the moment I switched to the 2nd-boot profile instead of 2nd-init, and that seems to not have boot issues.

Also, note that every time the failure happens, my calendar data is lost, and the last state of the mobile netowork setting is also lost, the phone switches to GSM/CDMA auto instead of GMS only that I usually use.

Something is going very wrong at the current boot process for me when 2nd-init is used.

EDIT:

OK, 2nd-boot failed too, Sleep of Death occured and the phone would not wake up T__T.

Rolling back to previous nightly, today's ones are a big failure in my case.
[Defy Android Development] flunk03:
i can confirm with ccav2000 stuck in bootloop on the latest nightly had to resort back to one of my old backups .
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I rolled back to yesterday's nightly 08/11/2011, had a system panic again on first boot but it did not stuck, it booted, subsequent boots work fine.

Until this issue is traced and fixed, I cannot install another new nightly, I spent the entire evening re-setting up my phone.
[Defy Android Development] ovidiuval:
with the latest nightly wifi signal not updated corect.bug just like in cyanogenmod version.can someone confirm?
[Defy Android Development] XQuisite:
I just updated to the 111109 without wiping any caches, and it booted up just fine. Cyanogen loop boot took about 1.5 minutes.

For the record - when I upgraded from 111106 to 111108, I did get stuck on the CM loop boot screen for 5+ minutes and had to do a battery pull and reboot. Did not revert at that time, and it booted back up just fine after I put the battery back in with 111108 still on it.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
The first time it worked today too, but then when I tried to reboot... hell.
[Defy Android Development] flunk03:
well am back to the 111103 which is the most stable one for me for now . With the 111109 nightly i had to resort to pulling the battery out .
[Defy Android Development] Deonix:
what to choose?

I am on RC1.5 and want to upgrade? which Nightly to choose? On RC1.5 everything works: Wlan ( almost perfect), wifi hotspot, call recording, no battery drain, no sound/sensors/button lights problem. So what nightly to choose.
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
An official one, the last (54) is ok. The last nightly from here ended in a bootloop too. Damn...
[Defy Android Development] russtyd:
Confirmed - right next to my router and shows 1 bar.... normally shows full bars.
[Defy Android Development] Deonix:
Thanks. Will try indeed.
[Defy Android Development] jh20:
i did not have any issue with 111109-1032 nightly either, but i wipe cache and dalvik cache "after" i flash the nightly as advised by epsylon3 and twa_priv a few pages ago with 111108 nightly.

i just tried a reboot and it still booted up normally, ie, phone vibrate after the arrow going around twice and booted into desktop after 6 rounds.

the first time booting after flashing, it took >30 rounds before booting up, so i'll say 1.5 minutes sounds about right.

when it was stuck in boot after i flashed 111108 nightly, i waited >130 rounds before decided to pull the battery.

so ppl, you don't have to wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing, but immediately after, and before you reboot. try that and see if it helps.
[Defy Android Development] hailmary:
im still on the nightly 111109-0730 & i have not noticed the flicker, im on auto brightness & cant notice it.

maybe because i dont have any other apps (just got from a data wipe few days ago)
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Yes wifi signal bar refreshing is problematic on Nov9th.

Well, (re)boot problem seems scary enough; I'm going to play it safe and revert to Nov 8th.

Too bad: my battery went past the 3 hours (airplane mode) stanby time for 1% drop last night; did not see that too often on any CM7 build...
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yep :) our stable 7.1.1.111111 is comming :)

flicker was fixed today (a little flash on level change), and (i think) wifi too (the problem with 2 registered networks)

wifi signal is also ok now...

yea, i will disable logs, was to debug the wifi problems

If you could help us with the new strings to translate : (The new separators in Defy settings and compass)

For the audio... The string is temporary, we plan to link DSP Manager in CyanogenMod Audio settings later

---------- Post added at 03:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:35 AM ----------

What is your headset button problem ? I just found my lost headset under my bed ^^

Seems ok here, that play/pause the music
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Cool, thanks mec!

I won't revert then; phone's charged up and ready to test drive what ever you build before the stable one ;) 7111111 ought to be perfect...

Any clue on the reported reboot problems?

Personally, I'd rather just use DSP instead of the Presets ...and save an extra Audio process (and a service as well?) running....

Edit:

And btw: great! with the new (Defy+?) signature key change on Nov 9th, I can now see the 'MTR Mobile' on the Market...and I couldn't before even though I'm located just a few klics from HK....
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Eh, might not be the best time to ask for or suggest this, but while I remember it...

Would it be possible to make the USB connection notification icon different depending on if the state is at 'Memory Card access' or just 'Charge only'?

I made that icon dark orange [pic] to remind me to check the setting before unplugging the phone. But it would be nice to have two different icons and know right away..

..just a thought.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
the "cached" background process is normal... its the settings menu, in Android apps stay cached after use to keep scroll position etc (on back button), these kind of system menus are then freed when required

For the icon, in fact usb is standalone, sdcard is another one... No we will not change that for the release... Maybe in the future

i will push a version soon...
[Defy Android Development] matchung:
may i ask for this? the dspmanager can take over the audio effect settings, what's the point to add the new audio effect? thx
[Defy Android Development] f0ster52:
Where's that string? please post some links and i'll manage to do the job.
[Defy Android Development] measel:
Just because you askes, I got a headset issue: I cannot hang up a call with a one-button-headset. everything else works: accept calls, play/pause/skip tracks.

might be the headset though or old stable 1.5

[Defy Android Development] abhifx:
well yay for final stable release from you guys. still i am not happy with defy's sound, specially using the DSP manager... the sound starts cracking at full volume. a peak limiter would be nice. i see that this problem doesn't occur on stock rom or defy+ roms

oh congrats on your headphone revelation :)

But yea, ive not tested this... it is not a long press but a "repeat ACTION_DOWN key event"

edit: just tested and when i hold the button, that stop the call
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Seems I never learn, so I installed cm71-111110.0453-NIGHTLY-Defy anyway. Booted fine at first try, second reboot also good.

I wish I knew what was the problem with the previous nightly.
[Defy Android Development] nameite:
Me too, and my WMA files work again!!! Woohoo~~
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yep, not in this nightly but next one i will be able to use "adb logcat" on first boot... i got the problem one time again today...

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:19 AM ----------

in which application ?
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Epsylon3, the headset bug appears only if the screen is off. If it's on, long press is recognized without problems. Please test it again. It's a bug that also affect other apps like PlayerPro. Check it again please, for me is frustrating to not be able to reject a call when screen is off (long press). Thanks
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
oh, thanks for the precision ^^ ive read that, but i forgot it... sorry i didnt have the headset before to check...
[Defy Android Development] measel:
confirmed.

that's why i thought it wouldn't work at all. with screen on it's fine.

Motorola Defy CM7RC1. 5, german Froyo base
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
I thank you! You'll see also that the other combinations have problems when screen is off (double click, click and hold etc). Now I use Headset Button from Android Market to enable the recognition of clicks but it has a problem too: if the phone is in deep sleep with headset attached, the single click to start the player (screen off) doesn't work immediately but with latency, when I open the screen. I've tested it using bip signals that announce if the click is recognized.

Thank you very much.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Hmm, then as long my luck lasts, I will avoid rebooting, just in case :D
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
Here, i never had problems on reboot... i only experienced 2 times the bootanimation which doesnt stop, 2 times in 10 or more builds recently
[Defy Android Development] oliyoup:
Is it possible to have an option to switch off the sound of the camera?

I do it in the build.prop, but if we could have it in the menu it will be great.

And is it possible to switch off the sound of autofocus?

Bravo to you all for your work!
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Such an option already exists in CyanogenMod settings menu, but some people have reported that it is not working. I never tested it myself.
[Defy Android Development] marhensa:
can't wait for tommorow stable / nightly :D

hope it just get better..
[Defy Android Development] oliyoup:

But there is always the sound of the autofocus...
[Defy Android Development] UgduiBill:
sorry guys, i'm having problems with 3g mode lately so I figured I could do a full sbf flash and restart from scratch (it's been months since the last sbf for me)

1) flashed froyo sbf with rsdlite

2) rooted with superoneclick

3) installer 2nd init

4) booted into recovery and cleared data

5) installed last nightly from zip, cleared data again

6) reboot

now my phone hangs on cyanogen boot animation indefinitely, and also my initial boot logo is different from the one I used to have prior to the sbf flash. Should I flash full RC1.5 before flash the nightly? Have I missed something? thanks in advance!

EDIT

well, thanks to a prior nandroid I was able to restore the last system I had running and now my phone is working, but.... I would have liked to try a clean install :) any helps would be apriciated
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Wma files did not play with the stock Music.apk but worked fine with Neutron MP.

I haven't really tested it out before (or lately anyway), so I can't confirm if this of any improvement or not..

Edit:

btw, seems like Flash (player) no more on mobiles...

"We will no longer continue to develop Flash Player in the browser to work with new mobile device configurations (chipset, browser, OS version, etc.) following the upcoming release of Flash Player 11.1 for Android and BlackBerry PlayBook."

R.I.P. SJ and Flash on Android

Remembrance day tomorrow and D-day for CM7.1.1-111111 release.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Flash the official Cyanogen 7.1 and then on top flash the nightly. The official 7.1 is like a BOOT nightly, needed to have the proper kernel, modules & devtree.
[Defy Android Development] UgduiBill:
thanks, now I understand :)

but, since I did ad andavced nandroid restore and I restored also boot partition from my last installation, I figure I'm ok now. I'm not sure about the boot logo being different...
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Can someone provide me Voice Search.apk. In my country is not available through Market and Market Enabler doesn't work with the new Android Market.

Thanks!

Also, I have a sugestion. I use Launcher Pro as default home and sometimes I observed that Launcher Pro lag when returning to home screen, ADW also. Here is the solution that worked for me: Fixed Launcher Pro lag when returning to home screen. It shoud work for ADW too.

If yes, this local.prop shoud be included in the next nightlys, or?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Market Enabler does work, but its effects are not instantaneous like they used to be. You may see the app you're looking for appear after some time passes. I noticed the same thing happening to me when I was looking for Google Maps and Google Plus.

[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
I found my launcher got sluggish when using an app that takes over the home function, like Calendar Event Reminder, or some lockscreen replacement apps so that touching the home button by accident doesn't dimiss the alarm or bypass the lock.
[Defy Android Development] thrutheeyes:
everyone who says it freezes at the screen after the update, it doesn't!!

It just takes a little bit longer to boot up first time round!!
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
How long did it take for you?

I upgraded from 111108.0452 to 111110.0453 as follows:

wipe cache + dalvik

installed zip

wipe cache + dalvik again

rebooted

After about 10 minutes having the CM logo spin I removed the battery and rebooted. Then everything was fine and subsequent reboots work fine.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Anything more than 10mins is a failure. I've been installing nightlies since May, I know very well when it's stuck and when it's not.
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Exactly. Rebuilding the dalvik cache never takes more than just a few minutes.

Go figure - just upgraded from 111108.0452 to 111110.0453 on a different Defy without any issues.

On that Defy, however, I got the same CM logo spinning symtom a few days ago when installing a self-compiled zip based on the sources from 20111106 (upgraded from 111004-1128 back then).
[Defy Android Development] caioars:
I agree. I waited for about 10 minutes and then had to pull the battery. After the reboot, everything is working fine.
[Defy Android Development] LeopardSurd:
Thanks! It works. Market enabler still doesn't works for me (I have the last Market).
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Doesn't it depend on the number of apps installed?

But yeah, it takes a maximum of 5 minutes generally.
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
A little off topic - but ... I was missing a nice (and free) app to view ms office email attachments (doc, docx, xls, xlsx), which currently isn't possible with CM7 out of the box.

Finally I decided to test if the QuickOffice app that comes preinstalled with vanilla stock Defy works - and it does work nicely without any issues as far as I can tell.

I actually extracted the latest version from the MS2Ginger nandroid system.img, which is much better than the Froyo version.

Maybe this helps somebody...
