Hi,

[MENTION=382340]walter79[/MENTION]: Are you testing new build?
[Defy Android Development] victorvscn:
I'm curious as well.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
my personal testing build. twrp, cwm, two 2nd boot options. some new nativeSD options from HTC HD2. :D Update will come but do not ask for eta.
[Defy Android Development] hoderer:
That would be VERY interesting to know. OTG is the only thing missing for me. MSGinger would be the PERFECT rom then until KitKat and 3.0-Kernel are finished (really missing bluetooth on CM10.x).
[Defy Android Development] molchmolch:
I am using this ROM for month now. Really good!

Sometimes I got ramdon reboots (every week one?!). Some occour when the ROM searches 3G/2G-network (setup is on automatic). Some occour while using Maps...

Anything else works great...
[Defy Android Development] Keboid:
Weird, never happened to me. But after flashing a rom, i always remove even some system apps that are not necessary, and stop some other services and apps from auto starting. Maybe that has also something to do with, maybe reboot occurs if your memory gets full.
[Defy Android Development] srk_srinivas:
Thanks for your effort, I am eagerly waiting for the new build
[Defy Android Development] joma227:
Bluetooth for CM10

Hi hoderer,

there is a version CM10, where bluetooth is working. It's called Jelly Bean Cannon V9.0 and has everything working.

Link: http://www.android-hilfe.de/custom-...cm10-mod-defy-defy-jbc-jelly-bean-cannon.html

It is a german Link, but the ROM is multilingual.

Greetings

Bluetooth does work on CM10, he is referring to CM10.1 and above, where Bluetooth works but voice calls with BT headset doesn't work as intended.

2nd boot

Is there a howto...

I couldn't find a procedure how to get MS2Ginger and CM1x running.

[

Last action I did yesterday was to install TWRP,

then I realized that I can't go back to my MS2Ginger the easy way. :crying:

So I'm going to struggle a while with CM11 ...

]

As Walters Signature is telling MS2Ginger 5.1 + CM11

I would really apreciate a howto to acheive the same.

Cheers

It it possible and does it make sense to update the kernel to one of the later versions of the Aero kernel for Defy?

If so, how would you do that?
[Defy Android Development] snandakishore:
Someone pls help me.. Is this with 2nd boot kernel(Froyo+ GB) ? I have a SOC Defy and got screwed after stock GB ROM update and now I can only use a 2nd boot based ROMs. My Battery dies and my camera doesn't work if I use a GB based ROM. Is this a GB based ROM or 2nd boot ?

Thanks

[Defy Android Development] walter79:
You can boot this rom with 2nd-int if you run a GB kernel. Default boot is 2nd-boot with a custom GB kernel

Can someone with a SOC cam defy test it?

for change log check fist post
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
And there is a new MS2Ginger build for testing.

2nd-system boot.

You will need 2 ext4 partitions on your sdcard.

Install works only with latest TWRP.

You can run MS2Ginger as 2nd-system with CM11.0 based rom on NAND.

After install switch to 2nd-system boot in bootmenu.

Uploading new rom to my file hoster.
[Defy Android Development] Zeroemd:
Installed on Green lens defy using latest TWRP.

Camera works well and everything is smooth as expected.

Edit:

No charging led, is this normal in MS2Ginger? it is the first time I am using the rom.

[Defy Android Development] antarix:
I tried it with twrp and there I can choose only 1 ext4 partition, 1 swap size and rest goes to fat32

Edit: I made the partitions as you informed with mini tool partition wizard.

Rom flashing was successful too but when I choose 2nd-system in bootmenu, nothing happens.
[Defy Android Development] lohtse:
Looking forward to flashing this but I have a question

Do I need to partition my sdcard??

I don't use any partitions as not found a need to as yet...I simply use internal space and move apps to sd as needed.
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
The talk about partitioning has to do with multiboot - if you want to have one ROM in your phone's memory and another on (one of the partitions of) the sd-card, both usable ;)

So, if you just want to use MS2Ginger and nothing else, no need to partition anything :cyclops: :good:

[Defy Android Development] Keboid:
I just tried to install ms2ginger 5.1 on a friend's defy+ with original android on it, It basically does not do anything, install aroma "finishes" install in a blink, says complete and there is no change on phone. I have installed for him kitkat so i cant test more, but there is something wrong with the zip, i just wanted you to know.
[Defy Android Development] molchmolch:
I had the same, BUT the solution is, to first flash TWRP_Recovery_2.6.3.0

With this recovery, the ROM flashes flawless and runs like hell!!!
[Defy Android Development] Keboid:
Hm.. ok, can i also "downgrade" from kitkat? I dont want to go trough flashing sbf etc, it may work under linux as well but no time for all that atm, too much work in progress.
[Defy Android Development] molchmolch:
Yes, u can. Skript sbf_flash works nice for Linux ;)

[Defy Android Development] Keboid:
5.1 version install still does not work for me, i tried with both recoverys, one from 2nd init 2.3 and twrp 2.6.3 as well. Aroma installer starts, i can choose blur/simlock/etc, and install finnishes after that at once, basically doing nothing.

5.a installs flawless, and there i can see the progress of install, while with 5.1 its empty.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
can you replace updater binary with the on from 5.0a ?
[Defy Android Development] Keboid:
I never tried rom making myself, no clue which file is it. Could anyone point on the file i need for that? There was no such file in the binary folder either.

I'm using the latest version of MS2Ginger, but now I want to flash CM11. Can I do it by following 'the usual procedure' with TWRP (after wiping everything), or is there some special procedure for that?
[Defy Android Development] JimboN:
Yes, you can follow the usually procedure (I came from MS2Ginger to CM11). One note -- there were some big changes on 02 Sept 14 and not all guides have been updated. If installing CM11 nightly dated 2014-10-01 or older follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52342403#post52342403

If installing CM11 2014-10-02 or newer (recommended), do this:

1) install TWRP 2.6.3.0 from here: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2455749&d=1387100555 > reboot to TWRP

2)Follow this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2515036 (Don't forget to install Gapps from the same page - link at the top).

At least that's the steps I followed and worked for me. I'm using 2014-10-05 and everything is working fine.
[Defy Android Development] Vicsa:
I could nowhere find what to do if you want to flash CM11 from MS2Ginger. Normally I'd hit just "thanks" button, but this is the most complete answer I could ever expect, and that's why it deserves a proper reply ;)! I will go for recommended option, and now I'm pretty sure that I will succeed. Thanks dude, God bless! :good:

Hi [MENTION=382340]walter79[/MENTION]. I'm back to GB. I'm having troubles installing the ROM. Which version of CWM should I use? I'm using different versions and all give me the same error when trying to run the install script: ABORTED. Not even a log, nothing. Just aborted. Tried MS2G 3.0 and 5 version and same happens.

EDIT [SOLVED]: I remembered MS2GINGER 3 is a CWM backup, not an installable zip. So restoring it from CWM worked perfectly.

But MS2GINGER 5 couldnt work under any version of CWM I've tried. So I've installed it successfully using TWRP 2.6.3 (installable from CWM)

Hey, Im currenty on Quarks build of kitkat. Is it difficult to flash this rom ? All I need to do is wipe the usual partitions, and then flash the zip file with TWRP 2.6.3.0 ?

Sorry for the noobish questions.
[Defy Android Development] JimboN:
It depends on which build you're using. Builds after Oct. 1 with new partitioning scheme require that you start with an sbf so that the partitions are reset to stock scheme. On builds before Oct 1, you should be able to just do a normal system wipe and install ms2ginger 5.0a from TWRP.

I just switch back to ms2ginger 5.0a after 3 months of testing Quarks Kitkat - nice rom but had a few issues with it and overall ms2ginger is the best choice for me.
[Defy Android Development] suffer1989:
Whats your personal experience with the recent builds of Kitkat? What kind of issues were you having ?

Im using this build:

[Defy Android Development] lohtse:
you tried this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2013059 ???? works a treat and in some ways a better rom due to being more upto date...
[Defy Android Development] JimboN:
20140117 = 2014 January 17 -- so you should be able to just flash ms2ginger from TWRP (wipe system & data then install ms2ginger from zip).

Most recently I was on 23 Dec 2014 build of CM11. It would work great for about 24 hours after a reboot and then it would have issue with lagging (i.e. would take a long time for an app to open or would respond slowly to input (15 - 30 second delays). This would sometimes clear itself out in a few minutes and then work normal again and other times I'd get impatient and reboot the phone. Other than that, everything worked well and as expected.
