[Defy Android Development] ZetaLau:
can i update to RC1.5 from RC1 without wipe data !??

is it work ?

thanks !!
[Defy Android Development] delerium82:
Yes, you can, but it is more secure to first make a back up of your data, then wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, data wipe and make clean install, then restore your data. I allways do that and never had a problem.
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Yes. The camera app looks a little different and the video codecs are not complete in the CM version. FM radio also likely doesn't work if BT is enabled. The Wifi indicator should also be stuck in the CM version.

This is everything I can think of OTOH - all of those issues/differences are caused by stuff that isn't merged (yet).
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
whats the correct method of upgrading to the "official" nightly? same as any other, just wipe cache/dalvik and install from cwm?

sent from my cm7 defy...
[Defy Android Development] delerium82:
Yep, but the official nightlies are not recomend, they may have some bugs. I made wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, data wipe (first make back up), then install nightlies and restore only data. That's all!
[Defy Android Development] remuseu:
i just installed and tested the new "official" cm build and i can say...the camera(video) doesnt have wide record and it freezes if u want to record something, the camera(picture) doestn even work...i mean i can take the pic but it freezes and never stores the pic on sd card, i need to press home in order to get out of the app, it looks different(like the old droid camera)

usb tethering works fine(it even works if the phone has a wifi connection, it shares it over usb...that didnt work or i never tested with the other builds)

wifi tether works (but u need to fidle with the setings a lil...for me only worked with wpa2 psk, the open connection could not establish)

other then that i can not see any major bugs
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
You have any source for your apk upload?

Downloaded it anyway and when I went to do the upgrade from the previous version (v3.1.3) that I've posted earlier on here, I realized that it had automatically updated itself to v3.1.5 already... so thanks anyway I guess.
[Defy Android Development] delerium82:
I don't know why mine never update itself, I allways should update manualy, but never mind.

Camera Flash On

Hey guys, quick query..

In the camera app, when I turn Flash ON (not auto) the flash comes on constantly, not just when I click for a photo. Is this a "feature" or a bug? And is there any way to disable this? Kind of annoying having my subjects squinting at the lens when I'm lining up a shot...
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Feature probably, otherwise select "auto"

[Defy Android Development] Jason78729:
Since changing to rc1.5 I've had no issues with wifi, GPS, battery, etc. For some reason I am unable to download certain apps from the market, angry birds, flash player, google earth, camscanner. I get a yellow bar across the top of the screen stating my device is not supported. Other apps work just fine. This is my only issue in the otherwise perfect cm7 rc1.5. Any help would be awesome.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
Google earth can be installed fine in mine, just checked. Camscanner the same, but I run the latest nightly version, not RC1.5.

[Defy Android Development] piaci:
don't know if it's a bug or feature, but headset button wakes the phone up when no lockscreen is set. using the button as a music controller it's quite annoying.

also, notification power widget's screen lock/unclock option works for a while then it stops working. later I'm not able to change it anymore even under the cyanogen options, have to reboot to solve.

[Defy Android Development] diamond_lover:
I have EXACTLY the same issue witm my Miui... I think is related to build.prop and the value of "ro.build.fingerprint"...

[Defy Android Development] chab7:
It is related to countries, not for roms (or nightlies). I can't find Google Earth in market on the device, but I can find in market on the computer. Though says: "This item cannot be installed in your device's country"

So must be installed from other source ;)
[Defy Android Development] maniac103:
Ah, it is? In which sense? It's me and mostly Epsylon3 who send in _our_ patches to CM. There's nobody else working on Defy-specific stuff in CM. Everything which is not Defy-specific was imported from CM into Epsylon3's nightlies anyway.

Unfortunately (for you), he was about right.

Where exactly do you think they got the Defy stuff from? :rolleyes:

I really don't understand why it's so hard to understand that it's exactly the same people working on the 'official' binaries as on the 'unofficial' ones. The 'official' ones just are not complete yet.
[Defy Android Development] ccav2000:
I expect at some point that nightlies will be only available from the build bot, just like it happens for other devices, but some special nightlies made available here for testing purposes.

CmGerrit is not always fast to have changes merged, so for now the nightlies Epsylon3 compiles are more complete, if people can't understand that they should just stick to the RCs and stop whining.

Auto brightness is buggy and use more battery than 60% level, use custom level will be better, phone signal is not good, are you using basebandswitch, if not, install it, select good area as you live.
[Defy Android Development] android167:
Ok tnx...

An one question, what should i install? nightly (which one?) or RC1.5?
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Just my worthless opinion here, but I'd say that no, it's not normal.

Again, I might be wrong here, but from what I see from your pics is that most of the time, your phone is not getting a signal. It could be different with 3G (I don't use it, so idk), but if you compare your 'phone signal' to the one from my phone during the last 7 hours or so (see pic below), you'll see that mine is all green. That would leave me to think that something is not right with your baseband setting, or you mostly use your phone in a location where the signal reception is very weak, or that something else is not normal somewhere with your 3G.

The phone will always work harder when scaning and trying to amplify a weak signal; the weaker the signal, the more power will be wasted to do so. That is true for wifi, for 2G and most probably for 3G as well...

So that's where I'd investigate first.

On my screenshot:

10% battery drop over 7 hours. It was pretty much only 2G standby though since the display was on for just about 45 minutes, wifi: 35minutes. Basically, I've just checked a few threads on xda a couple times and took my emails. But heck, your curves are so steep, I think that I was not even getting that while I've played GTR for 3 hours the other day...

Last thing I'd suggest is that not only you wipe battery stats in bootmenu but that you also let you battery run down completly afterwards ('till the phone shuts down) and finally that you charge it non-stop for a good 5 hours while being off. Because I think that when battery stats are resetted, batt estimation numbers are more accurate if the phone then sees both ends values: 0% and 100%. That could maybe help with the 20% vertical drops that you're getting - unless it's the suspend/OS bug again...

Good luck.

[Defy Android Development] andyman_187:
I don't think it's a feature. I have the same bug, just take a shot the first time u run the camera app w/ flash set to on, then it will turn off and behave normally for succeeding shots (stays on again once u exit and re run the app). Ur first shot WILL be overexposed due to the flash staying on. Use auto if this bothers u, flash will behave normally.

Would you mind taking a look at USB tethering too?

I've flashed the 09/21 one and after experiencing phone crashing when activating, 09/22, but even doing a completely fresh install with Froyo base doesn't change a thing. It just doesn't work and after a few minutes the phone reboots. Tethering apps from the market seem to work though.

Any ideas?

Wifi Tether Problem from RC1.5

Hi i upgraded to RC1.5. Now there is the built-in wlan hotspot. Thats very fine. There is no need for the wireless tether app.

I can connect to the access point. But there is no internet access. It seems there is no dhcp server running on the defy. So the Notebook can't identify the network.

If i try to reuse the wireless tether app the ap dont appear on the notebook.

Is there a workaround. I tried to search this Thread but its not so easy because this thread has so much pages :-)

so can anyone tell me why it was removed? i have no problem with it whatsoever. wanted to update thinking that something must be wrong with it....

Why is it that the maximum screen timeout setting is 5mins when using the notification bar widget button? It would be much more convenient if up to 30 min could be selected as I need a long delay before time out for example when downloading SD files for games, maps etc. Please consider adding this to future builds.

tx.. i dont like repeat me ;p
[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Does the screen timeout delay really matter here? ....in fact, I'm downloading such game SD data right now and my phone screen if off.

All you have to do is go in 'Wi-Fi settings' (when the wifi is ON) press the menu button and under 'Advanced' set the Wi-Fi sleep policy to 'never'. That way, it can take the whole night to download screen ON or OFF...

And also, using wifi to download large files..you probably plug in your phone no? If so, there is also an option where you can set the display to never go off when plugged in (charging) --> under Applications/Development/Stay awake. That also solve your 30 minutes timeout.

Cheers

@all devs,

everything is running very smooth and fast but i think there may still be a problem with 2D/3D drivers (GPU). this can be seen when applying a CM7 theme with transparency in contacts list or settings where scrolling becomes choppy. You may say that this is a hardware limitation, but i don't agree because our gpu is more than powerful enough to render the UI. For example the same theme runs very smooth on Adreno 200 GPU which is inferrior in every way to our SGX 530. i think there may be some bugs/missing functions in our GPU driver...can this be fixed? thanks a lot for a great rom
[Defy Android Development] russtyd:
I'm seeing a lot of issues in recent builds with not entering deep sleep, which is causing massive battery drain (110923-0710 went from 70% to 0% in about 4 hours last night - woke to a dead phone! 110921-0721 wasn't much better - it enters Deep Sleep but very occasionally and randomly). Most recent build I can find which seems ok with Deep Sleep is 110915-0057. Not sure what happened since then which has caused the problem? :confused:
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Maybe the exclamation mark means you just need to configure the proxy server properly on your computer.

When I tether, sometimes (ie some nightlies) i needed to configure the proxy of my provider, and some of them i didn't need to, it worked on the no proxy setting. So look into your apn settings and configure the same proxy in your browser or for the network connection in control panel.

I read Defy is not capable (fast enough) to handle HD. It that true? Somewhere else I read the driver for OV5642 is not written properly.

Positive Update on Suspend Bug!

OK for anyone that's been following my (& others) issue with the suspend/Android OS bug I now have had 38 hours without suspend going crazy & constantly using the CPU.

I have had this issue for a few weeks now & tried all sorts of things including different wifi drivers, disabling boot menu overclock, disabling auto sync etc. but only changed one thing at a time to ensure I could try to eliminate what was, or wasn't, causing the issue.

So 38 hours ago I tried an old wifi driver module from a BOOT177 (nordic?) dated 110615-1323. The suspend process seems now to be managed & has only used 4mins 15secs in 38 hours so I haven't needed to reboot yet & CPU Spy shows deep sleep is achieved more often. The dmesg still shows a few -16 warning/errors for suspend but much less than previously.

I will continue to monitor & will charge the phone later today & reboot.

So just to go over my specs:

Running 179-2 kernel the one with the red "M" boot logo (from 110817-1717).

Nightly from 110923-0710.

Wifi driver from BOOT177 dated 110615-1323.

Green lens (for what it's worth & not sure if that's related).

Can't give any further details as to what's different with the drivers but this old 177 is loading things quickly & is working fine for me - fingers crossed it's sorted for me.

Can anyone else try this to confirm?
