I had that problem with an update to adlxmod. Try downloading Defy Baseband Switcher from this forum and see if choosing a different baseband helps. Cured the problem for me :-)
[Defy Android Development] lanfearxt:
yup, sure the problem for me as well...i just felt that it should be included in the build instead of needing to install separately. after all, the whole world is downloading this marvelous ROM. not complaining, just suggestions to make it better!
[Defy Android Development] lanfearxt:
Another thing, is it me or is this ROM having problems playing glv files? I can't view YouTube

wireless tether

is it just me? i cannot find wireless tether on the settings. only usb tether available. anyone can solve this?

thx in advance :)
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Doesn't come with it. I just use a free wifi tether app from the market.

[Defy Android Development] riobenny:
Okay then :-) thanks, i will download one on the market

After update, i dont see the DSP enhancer. Anybody has the same problem???
[Defy Android Development] :
I don't think whether it's a bug. Apparently MIUI have simply forget to install it. I have add DSP Manager manually and there is no problem.
[Defy Android Development] killmastern3:
Can you provide me a link for the DSP manager app.The one i downloaded is a flashable zip and i couldnt install it.
[Defy Android Development] :
I have no link for DSP Manager. I have recover it from the 1.6.17 of MIUI, and I've manually placed in /system/app, with adb.
[Defy Android Development] killmastern3:
Ok. Just found it here. I flashed it and it works.

Hi all,

i´m from Vodafone Spain and the sms sending not work for me and i can´t registered into Whatsapp.

Any help?
[Defy Android Development] javi422:
ahhhhhh!!! lol

i wanna try Miui out on my Defy right now im on CM7 but i did have a chance to try it over the weekend and right now im at work and have everything downloaded to my Defy only thing is Im without my laptop and dont want to flash then if something goes wrong while getting the english language pack loaded and i end up in bootloop, since i have read that some ppl have had problems with that any suggestiosn?
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I dunno really if you got all the files from first post in this thread and follow the exact instructions as you go along then really you shouldn't go wrong.

I actually did a fresh install and wrote the instructions as i went along to make sure i wasn't giving the slightest wrong bit of information.

I know the pain of flashing a clean sbf...i want to keep downgradability so if i mess up i have to flash 2.1 sbf, root, install 2nd init, then install cm7 or other, then upon reboot flash a fixed sbf that works with cm7...phew! :@
[Defy Android Development] javi422:
haha yeah i downloaed everything from your thread (this one duh) lol

and yeah i know everything should be fine but still if anything for some reason goes wrong i dont want to end up in a loop and not have my notebook right on me and be able to flash any sbf and just have the baterry die while i get off work. BUT i think imma still do it xD

and wow thats alot just to keep downgradeability i started from a 2.51 when i got my defy so thats not a big of a worry for me since i do happen to have the sbf and nandroid from comeplete stock 2.1 update 1

Hi everyone,

Just some quick fixes to try and solve some niggles in this weeks packs.

Changed in 1b

1. Updated user agent in Mms.apk to help with sending and receiving larger images, thanks for the help kurisu!

2. String improvements from Keshav in:

Phone.apk, Settings.apk, MiuiMusic.apk, MiuiCamera.apk, ThemeManager.apk, Mms.apk and Launcher2.apk

3. No longer showing build number in updater-script this is to make things easier next week for updates and speed. File names will continue to be shown with correct version and md5.

Thank you madhuranand007.

How shall I install it?
[Defy Android Development] madhuranand007:
If you already have the MIUI installed with the English language than :

Just go into Custom recovery and run this zip again and ... tada .. its done ;)
[Defy Android Development] Jojo1992:
when will a german language pack come out?

or how could i do it myself?
[Defy Android Development] Jokerchris2000:
Now that there is a kind of official Gingerbread Version out there is it possible to take some libs from them for GPS and so on to improve these Bugs?

Did anyone treid it yet?

I'm sad that there's not a lot of interest in this. Is there a buglist yet?
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
im feeling that i have a higher battery drain after upgrading to 1.6.24, i lost 12% in 5 hours of idle device, no calls, no browsing, no screen. full stand by state.

in earlier releases i got 48hrs of battery.
[Defy Android Development] lanfearxt:
Switch to using 2G
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
This is a Multi Language Pack witch has almost every languages included in official Froyo for Defy. It was made for SGS but works fine on Defy´s 1.6.24.

http://www.multiupload.com/J69MRA5PHF

After flash, wipe cache and dalvik, make sure that your language is selected in settings menu.
[Defy Android Development] reinsen:
does the language pack also work for MIUI.us version? and the battery 1% step fix?

and can anyone provide a link for the swype addon? link in first post is broken
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Cyanogen new rc is out. Seems likely MIUI will finally merge with cm again. Hopefully brings battery fix and wvga photo. Maybe more :-)

Ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] drmouse81:
Hi all

If I want to upgrade (from 1.6.17 to 1.6.24) do I still need to wipe data? Or is there an easier method for upgrading than the full install shown in the first post?
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
drmouse81 you can follow the steps mentioned by ephumuris here.
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
Yes for the two questions, i will upload swype soon.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Yeah you can just flash with no wipe. Make a backup first but it generally goes fine. I haven't wiped my data for 3 releases now.

Hey folks. SInce the last update, my camera is acting weird. The picture is all blurred and I can't seem to find a way to change that.

http://s7.directupload.net/images/110627/v4xzeeod.jpg

I guess, I have a green lens Defy, and I never encountered this problem before.

I treied disabling and enabling certain settings, deleting the data of the camera app and restarting the phone, nothing helped.

Is it possible to integrate CM7's WVGA Photo and video?

Everything working like a charm. Even WVGA recording with lgcamera.
[Defy Android Development] kirpeace:
which one i use the one here or aosp?
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
Miui BR? Where can i get it?

EDIT: After trying CM7 RC1, i came back to my MIUI 1.6.17 backup, witch has GPS and aGPS fully operational, no bugs, and most of all: NO BATTERY DRAIN. 1.6.24 both Chinese and miui.us gave me less than 24hrs, and 1.6.17 gave me more than 48hrs.
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
I haven't tried to install CM7 over MIUI, but I successfully installed MIUI 1.6.17 over one CM7 nightly version. However if you encounter any issues it's strongly recommended to do a clean install (starting from SBF flashing).
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Fm radio coming this week. Also MIUI becomes classed as stable.

[Defy Android Development] stunno:
Using the latest release and everything is working very nicely indeed!

GPS is quick to get a fix and accurate and the battery life seems on a par, if not slightly better, than previous releases.

Thanks for all of the good work Ephumeris!

One quick question, which baseband do you use for Giffgaff? I've recently changed from Vodafone and am generally getting worse reception and much slower internet - it could just be where I live though.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
I don't do much work other than updating this thread. The real hard work is done by the MIUI devs in China and also the MIUIandroid.com team who translate this for us. MIUI.us just seem to "borrow" the work from MIUIandroid.com. Notice their releases are always later than MIUIandroid.com? :)

For GiffGaff i just stick to my T-Mobile 2.51 baseband and it works nicely. Downloads hit almost 300kbps usually. I have a T-Mob contract and a GiffGaff sim i use :)

[Defy Android Development] dedraks:
No need to flash.

Just install the update.zip and perform the required wipes.

First I flashed Nordic.

Anyone glad about FMRadio? Personally i don't care for it however i think it is just further proof they are re-merging with CM for the RC1 stableness :D

Plus the guys promised July and July the 1st is pretty much the earliest.

Will add instructions on upgrading in first post as a lot of people have asked.

[Defy Android Development] bihariel:
full battery percent not included, bat it is easy to include.
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
i was ready to upload it, but first i installed it in my 1.6.24 and it started me saying that " this version of swype was made for another device and will work with limited funcionality." . After that, the swype feature didnt work and it stopped wondering the words. Thats why i didnt upload mine for you.
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
thanks for pointing me there. does the 1.6.24 from MiuiBR have the battery drain issue? im at 12hrs of use and still have 89% at my 1.6.17 version. I wont update from here as long as this battery problem gets fixed.
[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
Wait for fridays miuiandroid.com release. I got a feeling it will be a good one :-) Should in theory be on a par battery wise with cm7.

Ephumuris.
[Defy Android Development] martin.flory:
With miuiandroid deoxed + language pack im getting MUCH better battery life than with 1.6.17.
[Defy Android Development] fabianowerner:
so i dunno whats going on, i tried both chinese deodex + langpack AND miui.us translated pure english. Both gave me poor battery life. Seems that it will be fixed as mentioned by Ephumuris .

EDIT: 16hrs uptime and still 79% after some calls and browsing. Overclocked using Milestone Overclock @ 1100Mhz - 58Vsel.
[Defy Android Development] zzj0402:
MIUI is just a custom rom,not technically a dev. rom since it is basically based on Quarx's CM7 ported rom.So plz stop posting a custom rom on this development zone,for at least there should be a debuger who could fix things,and there is no one would do for this MIUI,if anyone would they'd better help Quarx out.

If you simply like it,plz just visit their websites and enjoy yourself there or please post this elsewhere(like the general or apps),cuz it would confuse people thinking MIUI as an independent dev rom.
[Defy Android Development] re1743:
Not really. MIUI is a custom Rom. It's developed by devs in China. Yes, they use Quarx's sources, but as a ROM, it's separate and is very different from CM7. You don't really seem to understand how this works. If you don't like the posts, please move on, this is one of the biggest (and most helpful) sources of information about MIUI for Defy available.
[Defy Android Development] feh_pexto:
Sorry for the dumb question but...

cm7 is better than miui?

I was told that miui got the looks and little bugs against cm7's fastness. Is that right?

You really haven't a clue have you. Please troll elsewhere.

[Defy Android Development] alezzandro:
Hi there,

Does anyone know if it is possible to use/install Motorola Phone Portal on MIUI rom?

Thanks for replying..
[Defy Android Development] reinsen:
phone portal should be working since this alex guy implemented it in his miui zip.

tried the swype beta 3.0 but doesnt work for me. when i download swype beta full and click install, it end with "application not installed". :-/

btw does anyone know what this app is for? i dont know where it came from and why its not translated...

/edit

fyi, i first flashed the 177 sbf, applied the miui.us 1.6.17 zip, updated to 1.6.24 (with wiping cache) and after that switched over to ephumuris 1.6.24 + language pack and battery fix (again, wiped cache and dalvik cache before applying the zip)

updates on week 45

original thread : http://www.miui.com/thread-143340-1-1.html

1. update to new system (maybe means kernel)

2. Defy will support FM

3. Launcher will be 30% smoother

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

and good news about battery life :D

http://www.miui.com/thread-141958-1-1.html

1、when defy plug in usb, the notification bar will show two usb icon

2、The quality photos taking by camera is not good

3、Hope developers focus on solving battery heat problem.

4、Now miui's ROM is default overclocked. Hope official will release a document about it.

5、Background and text colour is not match with many applications

and Sorry for my bad english :D
[Defy Android Development] feh_pexto:
can someone answer this?
[Defy Android Development] drfakeacc:
No.

Neither MIUI nor CyanogenMod is "better". Indeed, CyanogenMod is a little faster, and MIUI has the better looks. But both Roms are stil unfinished and have their bugs and errors. Try both yourself and decide upon that.

[Defy Android Development] ephumuris:
So is miui from Friday. But that's generally stable not the defy specific version is fully stable.

But Friday comes with Fm radio working, 30 percent faster launcher movement and also overclock as standard. Which means it must be merged with a newer cm release ;-)

That would be something, to pay for the free MIUI rom.

It's not about the waiting: I'd rather receive an OTA update tomorow or on sunday instead of two crippled zips on friday.
[Defy Android Development] bujcri:
After I installed the language pack, it changed the language to Chinese :) Damn, it was difficult to change back to English, I was like a blind.

Other than that, the Radio app, is nice, but it doesn't have RDS, maybe will be added. Widescreen recording is working with LG Camera, but it's choppy.

And no 1% battery step :(
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
bujcri Did you tried the patch made by ephumuris (link) to display the battery in 1% steps?
[Defy Android Development] bujcri:
I didn't know it existed. In other words, it works, mersi fain.
[Defy Android Development] TweetyPeety:
FM Radio is really nice

BUT

Video is still ****ty. Try to make a Video with best quality and it has some marks in the top right and if you play it, it interrupts.

Video shooting in normal mode will work good but when you want to play it it says this video is not supportet, after a couple of seconds.

Still Haptic Feedback in Keyboard doesn't work.

Back on topic. Is it happening only to me or the wifi transfer rate seems to be a little slower than it was in the previous version?

EDIT: I've found on MIUIandroid dot com forum an app called MIUI ROM Downloader (available also on Market) which supports Defy and allows the user to download the latest MIUI release and language packs on Defy. This might ease up the update process.
[Defy Android Development] feh_pexto:
I flashed miui then I let it boot and reboot into recovery like the tutorial

but the "Custom Recovery" disappears what am I doing wrong?

I just has "Stable recovery" "Latest Recovery" and "Stock Recovery" but no "Custom Recovery" (I know I'm doing something VERY stupid but I can't figure it out!)
[Defy Android Development] psicodelico:
Use Latest Recovery.
[Defy Android Development] androidtester80:
It's actually developed by the Italian MIUI team http://www.nexus-lab.com/nexus-lab-android-apps/miui-rom-downloader/ and all it does is download the deodex rom, custom language packs and google apps. You still have to reboot into recovery and flash the zip packs. :(
