I think this is the beautiful theme:

[CM7 THEME] MEIZU v8.0 MDPI/HDPI for stable/deodexed CM7 builds
[Defy Android Development] darklord408:
Need some help here CM7 Devs

is it possible to mimic the settings of the softkey backlight brightness in eclair and incorporate it into CM7? in 2.1, the brightness of the softkey backlight is also controlled by the light sensor. but in 2.2 and CM7 2.3, it has now become static and a little bit low.

thanks!
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
He he yeah I just like the icon :p

Yeah it is the Meizu theme. If anyone wants my hacked rc0 system UI to match the theme just let me know. It's the part that creates the transparent statusbar.

Ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I think these values are in framework-res.apk on arrays.xml just like screen brightness settings.

Not sure if the sensor libs have changed since Eclair or Froyo too though...

Ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] darklord408:
Hope someone could take a look on this.

I have found the solution for my wifi. It seems that the wifi encryption mode of this rom don't support WPA2-PSK, I change the encryption mode of my router to WPA-PSK, it works now.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
NEW TEST-BUILD

Call function works also after reboot.

GPS Icon in statusbar is missing if you got a gps fix it work
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
I have WPA2-PSK... wifi works fine

Who else tested the calls?
[Defy Android Development] starrybright:
use NEW TEST-BUILD

my reception error is fix

but the sounds have "ca ca ca"
[Defy Android Development] Blackcorsa:
at the moment, call function works fine.

i don´t know how long

Hi Quarx：

I found another problem,it seems really "Power Consumption".

Last night,before i go in sleep,my phone have about 80% power,but this morning,i cant wake my phone.it even has no power to start up.

I dont know if anybody else meet the situation,maybe there is some problems with RIL
[Defy Android Development] m11kkaa:
As I mentioned above the Test-Build didn't helped me.

Then I tried the tip from ofmb with the 3g-fix.

But there was no fix for germany. So I downloaded anyone and opend the update-zip to see which files it changes.

Then I took these files from a stock-rom(from Pay-5.1) and flashed them.

Now it works for mee, too!

@Quarx: I put the files as a attachement in this post. Maybe you can see the significant difference to permanent fix this in future versions.
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
thats a baseband fix that you just created :)

you can call it "GERMANY 1&1 FIX"

@ Quarx,

what have you changed in TestBuild ?

Also you has found the issue ?
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Try setting back to wpa2 and give it a short passkey and see if that works :)

I'm pretty sure it's a cyanogen bug :)
[Defy Android Development] Rhyr:
Test5.zip seem to work for now...

Edit: failed call :-(

I'll try TO flash test rom...
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
So whats left... open gl 2 stuff?
[Defy Android Development] Quarx:
Works fine?:)

I'm made some changes in RIL
[Defy Android Development] Domingo2010:
@ Quarx

Can you integrate the comyability patch into Beta 2?

Dont be so impatient, posting this 3 times in 1 hour. Use the search first. All you should need to do is flash the new one from recovery.
[Defy Android Development] danielzyy:
Is there a way to update from beta6 and keep ALL my applications and settings ?
[Defy Android Development] Corwinder:
You should have no problems as long as you DO NOT wipe. Wipe only if you have problems after the upgrade. All your apps will still be there unless of course they were an app that came with CM7 and weren't included in a certain nightly. If you are still worried download and install Titanium Backup and have it back up all user apps.
[Defy Android Development] Evil Slayer:
guys why there isn't any option for changing the keyboard im using in settings in RC0?
[Defy Android Development] stapuv:
instal a keyboard from market....
[Defy Android Development] paleszgergo:
SmartKeyboard pro!
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
The best :D

But I think he say that there is no option to change it, you need to enable it first, and then, in keyboard config button select the new keyboard.
[Defy Android Development] danielzyy:
Smooth update without need of backuping anything :)
[Defy Android Development] donP73:
Wow!

Can you upload it for us? :eek:
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
damn... had to wipe data to fix the wifi problem...

cache format function is restored in next nightlys
[Defy Android Development] binodnepal:
For which wifi fix
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
we are 2 to have this problem on recent nightly (with mimo routers) wifi can't find access points.

Dunno really what we have to delete in data, i think settings database
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
Deleting data/misc /wpa...conf doesn't help? Specifically the line apscan=2
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
i'm restoring the "bad" data partition to check

yea, ive deleted this file and its now fixed... wifi ap are now listed on wifi toggle
[Defy Android Development] kruppin:
What is the best way to OC/UV the device, now that I'm running CM7 on it? Through bootmenu, setvsel or even maybe the CMSettings? I guess it doesn't really matter, but maybe are they using different modules to achieve the OC, and therefore one is better.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
if you use setvsel and "on demand" governor, the oc setting set in bootmenu is just for the boot time and for the CW recovery (which make the device hot without)
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I've asked yesterday but got no answer....but would really like to know:

Anybody has the DSP manager's custom equalizer working for headset on RC0?

I cam use "Rock", "Vocal booster" and others, but adjusting the custom EQ bars on the graph have no effect. Was working fine in beta 6....
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yea, ive seen that...

New 177-003 kernel tested ok onto CM7 (my original SBF was the 177-005)
[Defy Android Development] iisniperzzz:
Hay guys just wondering how to install miui. I just want to try it out. What do I need to do if I want to come back to cm7? Do I need to back up my current rom then wipe data then install the miui zip. ?
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yea, make a nandroid backup and wipe data, i will try also... good idea :)
[Defy Android Development] killmastern3:
Can you please upload the patch?
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
OK thanks Ep3.

I just wanted to know if the problem was on my side only...

How is the official CM7 integration coming along? You're getting any help from the team yet?

I like your old avatar better BTW..hehe!:p

Oh, and the only problem I've notice so far about using a Chinese Froyo base for CM7 is the SIM toolkit being in Chinese only...
[Defy Android Development] iisniperzzz:
Oh and will I lose my apps can I move them all to my sd card and still keep them.

[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
This was answered on post 6211 and is a very basic knowledge...

- - -

Someone mentioned getting better battery life by disabling JIT and dithering...

excuse my ignorance but what would be the drawback(s) in doing so?

Edit: 1 more question:

@Ep3: you mentioned getting log cat errors when setting vsel too low (<26)... How could I investigate that (is the logcat started somewhere in the devtools? could you enlight me; I'm sure that catlogging is something I should be familiar with...) and what kind of errors would I be looking for and/or how to trigger them?

On green lens with 060811 nightly, 5 and 4 mp works but really heavy compression again-400 and 300kb files in a bright room..
[Defy Android Development] Corwinder:
Ok, I'll mention this again. If you are worried about your apps just download Titanium Backup. Use it to backup all user apps. Then if for some reason you lose all your apps you can redownload Titanium backup and restore your previous backup. Oh, I found it's also not a bad idea to backup the sd card if you have the room. One of the nightlies I believe didn't get along with my sd card and I was forced to reformat and I was so glad to have that full backup of the sd card on the computer.
[Defy Android Development] Corwinder:
Ok I just installed the 110608-0020 Nightly and having a few bugs. When I first booted I got a message it was checking sd card for errors. That took about 4 minutes or so. Then I plugged the usb into the computer. Media Link came right up but couldn't connect. I looked at my drives available and it showed the correct drive letter but when I click it just does that waiting thing. So I unplug the usb. It's another 3 or 4 minutes before the phone registers the sd card again. So I plugged it back in to usb and double checked that it was set for memory card access. It was. Turns out that while I was typing this the computer finally registered the drive and I was able to read it. So it must have been 3-5 minutes before the computer could read the sd card. This is the same sd card I've used since February.

Ok 10 minutes later while the phone was still plugged in I dropped one song onto the sd card and then unplugged so I could access the song with the phone. The phone had turned off. I rebooted and I got the checking for errors on sd card again. Think I'll go back to RC0
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
Guys i had asked this question yesterday also...

"do we have to disable boot overclock to use setvsel's vsel value or the setvsel's vsel value works fine even with boot overclock unabled??"
[Defy Android Development] manoloto:
With RC0 and green lens, my video camera does not work.
[Defy Android Development] dlhxr:
I think it was answered days ago.

There's no need to disable the overclock in bootmenu. Before you enter the system, the cpu acts as the bootmenu settings. And after the setvsel starts, the cpu act as what setvsel tells.

dalvik cache

i've RC0 installed, but it seems a little bit slower than beta6. i wiped cache before the installation. but i didn't delete dalvik cache.

now i looked to /data/dalvik-cache and there are a lot of files.

can i delete these files or the dalvik-cache folder and the system gets a bit faster?

if i do so i've to reinstall RC0?

sorry for this, maybe these are silly questions, but i simply don't know it.
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
It works now with the CM supplicant?

If that's the case, the old and the new file would be interesting...
[Defy Android Development] dlhxr:
I am not quite sure about this.

In my opinion, you can just wipe your dalvik-cache and then reboot. The system can recreate the files in dalvik-cache.

Attention! I am not quite sure about this...
[Defy Android Development] racka_pw:
Hi all!

What is the most useable nightly build after rc0? I can't get the softkey backlight working. I give a nightly build a shot!

Thanks in advance!
[Defy Android Development] Bumble99:
Wipe Dalvic Cache from Custom Recovery (Under Advanced menu) - this will be safer than manually deleting folders/files. The Dalvic Cache will rebuild itself when you next boot so your first boot will take a bit longer than usual. You won't lose any data - your phone should be the same as it was before but it may be a bit more stable/faster.
[Defy Android Development] Evil Slayer:
I did..."go keyboard" and still there isn't(enabled it as well)...i have to use the option provided when you use the keyboard itself...the problem is if im using swype i can't change settings back to stock keyboard...which supports arabic and i need it
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
I was happy with RC0 since it's release but the fact that the wifi signal level was not refreshing and that the custom DSP equalizer was not working at all convinced me to switch to 110608-0020. [And those two features noW work properly BTW]

I've been doing quite some thumb action test-driving the new install and my Defy got 'warmish' (up to 41C) [only since it's pretty hot here today I believe...but will keep an eye on temps].

So I took a break and use the occasion to backed up my SD card. [thanks for the reminder ...whoever just suggested that]
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Can't comment on the DSP manager issue (did you already check the CyanogenMod bug tracker?), but about the Wifi indicator refresh, what makes you think it doesn't work properly? It works absolutely fine here. To check whether it's really stuck, you can do the following:

- get a shell (terminal emulator/adb)

- run 'su'

- run 'wpa_cli'

- enter 'driver rssi-approx' repeatedly there, preferably changing the phone location inbetween to make the signal level change

If the values are changing there, the signal indicator is working properly. If not, something is weird in the build...
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yes, you can also check with "Wifi Analyzer" Tool (free) if level is "moving"
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
The WiFi indicator started working fine for me with the nightlies after RC0 was released.

Yesterday my DEFY was acting weird, Android OS was consuming 50% of my battery and in the Battery info in Spare Parts I had too much time "running". The issue went away after I rebooted, but I don't like the fact that it happened.

Obviously some system service was stuck.
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
If Wifi Analyzer was running, the sigal level also worked before my fix ;)

Wifi Analyzer triggers continous scans, and the problem previously was that the RSSI level wasn't updated when no scan was running.
[Defy Android Development] Mikis89:
I'm on 2011-Jun-08 00:26:44 nightly with some sistem app and service removed, everything is perfect but the camera.

I tried these both:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=14473385&postcount=6054

and it seems to work a bit better, 1 get 1400/1500 kb picture with a green lense but sometimes i have to exit the camera app and open it again to make zoom work perfectly.

Still gettin preview shift tough and sometimes grey lines when shootin directly at a source of light...

Again, beside this everything is perfect, a big thank you guys!

ME BAD ME BAD !! sorry it was a typo: "now work properly" -not "not" :o
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
You can disable swype, then will be the stock again. Thats what I have done when I needed.
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
Thanks bro for replying :)..even i thought the same but suddenly my battery started to drain alot.so i thought the vsel value is not working anymore..so just asking..

Cool, that's good to hear.

Today I experienced something really strange. The touchscreen stopped responding while somebody was calling me. Only after I pressed the power buton twice, I could answer. What could it be ?
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
i also had the same prob many times...was hoping the fix in the latest build..but that prob is still dere..
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
Guys,

I've not seen a workaround to the crappy proximity sensor performance on this build (RC0). It is incredibly bad - today on an official important conference call, I couldn't speak up because the screen just won't switch on mid-call. I had to do a battery pull.

This behavior was not there even in the 110601 nightly and definitely not in beta 5.1

Any workarounds?

The only other bug is the keys' backlight but that's rather minor.

/who is seriously contemplating beta 6 again

@Arpith - since when have you noticed this problem?
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
@hitanshu - i have this prob since may 31st nightly i guess....it doesnt happen always..but whenever it happens its irritating :(
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
This have been always, it was main problem why I removed older betas from my phone. It now work good 50% of the times.

To avoid battery pull, I am using an accessibility option to end call with power button, very USEFUL.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I find it ridiculous that you would complain about something when using an unofficial software on your phone. If you need the phone for work purposes etc then go back to stock rom. I have not had any proximity issues in rc0.
[Defy Android Development] arpith.fbi:
well tats true..we shouldnt forget what all they are doing for the people...and they dont even charge a single penny...i m happy with the CM7..i know it has few bugs..but those are minor bugs..it performs better than any other smartphone in the market :D..

hats off to the Quarx and Team :)

All the Best..

and Thanks alot for everything u r doing for us :)
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I agree with ephumuris, for work/business purposes you do not experiment with beta/unsupported ROMs. In any case, the risk is yours to take, but you do not have the right to complain, just to report a bug.

I never had proximity sensor issues, and my backlight works properly. The fact that some of you have the issue puzzles me, as I cannot understand why. I originally thought a wipe is the solution, but users reported persistent issues after a wipe too. Something's fishy here, but I don't know what.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Yeah i also do not have any issues with my button backlights...
[Defy Android Development] AkkiandDefy:
Could you tell us how you installed Meizu??? Please. :)

Swyped from my Defy using CM-7 RC0 with the XDA premium App
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
Go easy on me folks!!!

Arpith - I fully agree. But I believe we shouldn't just stop at thanks, if you know what I mean ;-)

I didn't mean it in a complaining fashion and that's NOT the intention. More like "Woah woah woah I just ended up $hit creek".

I am reporting a bug - not saying "fix it". That is just not my intention. My logic is simple - this little irritating bug is something that I'm surprised is not fixed nor discussed in depth. I think there are a few folks who are having this problem and I would like to submit that the "inaccurate sensor" workaround doesn't fix it. It was more of an exclamation at how this sensor began to fail with RC0 whereas it was not an issue with any of the previous versions. Nothing more - nothing less.

I'm just plain amazed at how lots and lots of issues get solved on this thread in a realtime basis (and trust me, that is truly amazing and a joy to see!). I am still heavily thankful for the realtime help I got on this thread when I screwed up my phone both times :D - that includes Quarx, YOU, ephumuris, antony.ps, AkkiAndDefy and a couple of others!

I am NOT complaining, just saying that I'm surprised no one's made any headway. I just stated an incident where this bug became a facepalm for me. Not blaming anyone, or complaining - again - apologies if it came across that ways. Even saying about a downgrade to beta6 was more like asking your opinion whether that would solve this issue or not.

Infact, I was so happy with beta 5.1 - I'll gladly downgrade back to it. It was simply rock solid and brilliant to use. It was so good, even my wife wanted to drop her planned iPad2 purchase and get a Honeycomb tablet!

Christ - I bought this phone because of how awesome you guys are, and the way Quarx just simply built up the code at warp speed - no other reason!!! I didn't buy the Defy for the crappy Motorola stock ROM!

Thanks. Very good idea. Will do.

btw, what is this option for "removing older betas". What is that? Can you share the link to how it is to be done?
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
The fact that the issue is not solved has to do with the fact that none of the devs can reproduce it. Same problem with an issue I have, my new SDcard doesn't work.
[Defy Android Development] RexXxuS:
Hi, it's me again x)

yesterday I had constantly 10% battery lacks (rc0)... 95% after a while 85%... then 81 to 71% etc. ... so I thought wiping the battery stats in custom recovery would fix it...

Today I see that I haven't lacks anymore but 30% drain over night - in standby! ~.~

Does anyone have an idea what I should do?

I use the ... (just looking in my other tab) the nightly which is deleted :eek:

0546 was it... ehmm... ok... maybe this nightly was obvious a fail x)

I try the newest...
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Had some issues with that nightly too as I said in a previous message (stuck system service that drained battery), will also try the newest when I get home.
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
I have a bug:

When in accesibility you have checked end call with power button, if in CM settings you have Volume rocker wake activated, volume up/down will too end the call if the screen is off (when you want to increase or decrease the volume).
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
Dear me - how obvious and how stupid of me to not realize that - then of course, it will not get solved on its own:)

Infact, I was going to buy a 16GB SDHC class 6 card that evening when I read your message - I am now only going to buy it after you say its okay to do so! :D

DQ: Is there like a link to how I can use logcat (as mentioned here) or any other debugging software to generate a dump/log on this issue. That will then help for development of the right patch, no? Infact, it can help on any future bugs.
[Defy Android Development] dlhxr:
Does the mounting SDcard function work?

Hi, everyone. Does the mounting SDcard function in the bootmenu and the custom recovery work in the lastest nightly build?

I am using cm7 rc0 and this function doesn't work. I have tried serveral nighly builds (before rc0) and it didn't work.

Is it a public bug or my own bug?

Could you help me?
[Defy Android Development] avalon53:
Guess i'll wait for a 'regular' build of gingerbread and stick with rooted froyo for now....i cant deal with the bugs of the ported CM7 (even tho it seems to be Very close to being totally stable)
[Defy Android Development] hitanshu:
So as I promised - I went back to the 110603-0516 nightly. And the proximity sensor works like a CHARM :)

So whatever code got checked in on the 3rd/4th is causing the whole proximity sensor mess.

PS: I tried this code with about 12 calls - touchwood so far!!

PPS: Even with this, its perfect with the Inaccurate sensor turned on, without it, there is a bit of a lag. Funnily I saw two things:

- With inaccurate option ON: even putting hand over sensor, turns off display immediately.

- With inaccurate option OFF: putting hand over sensor does not turn off display, but putting phone to the ear turns off display immediately. don't ask me why!

PPPS: ccav2000 - I hope now I am not complaining, but being constructive, right? :)
