Yes, after replacing it works ok now, tested camera and photo, also flash, all working fine! Thank you for the tip!
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
That was normal Camera.apk. I have to remove the froyo camera.apk in green cam patch.

Can i use volume wake mode v4 along with v5
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
AW: [ROM][GB][2nd-boot][2013.03.31]MS2Ginger, custom kernel, 720p and more

Works.
[Defy Android Development] Keboid:
This is the second time i try your rom, for now i am using itsince you released v5 beta, and i must say it rocks, i could not believe this phone can last for so long, it may be not accurate but almost 2 days and still above 70% battery. I just have one question, if i install the newer zip, will i loose my apps and settings, or is there any way to upgrade to the newer version without that loss?
[Defy Android Development] kye04:
Please tell me what rom can i install for a Defy plus ???

V5 has a lot of fc in the cyanogenmod settings...

V4 i do not know what version to choose for defy +

Please advice....

Bug report:

SOC phone does not charge after full discharging, it starts up with red moto logo, but before the big battery charging animation appears it restarts to bootloop(luckily had enough juice to flash CM10.1 )
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
Walter, will we see any JB version (for our beloved DEFYs) from you at some point :)
[Defy Android Development] kye04:
Jb sucks.... not the operating system but the fact that our phones are not projected for it....

It requires at least 700mb ram...

i tryed all versions for defy, the only one a little beat smoother was Slimbean....still far away from any Gb smoothness and quick respondness...
[Defy Android Development] pradeeppk:
Re: [ROM][GB][2nd-boot][2013.03.31]MS2Ginger, custom kernel, 720p and more

Jb 4.2 run smoothly in my Samsung s captivate. It have same ram as defy.
[Defy Android Development] oSandmaNo:
JB running on my Xperia J smoothly as well. It has 512 MB ram, 1ghz processor. The 3.4 kernel makes a good difference

Nice rom

Hi,

[Defy Android Development] renoob:
Unfortunately, I think you may be right.

I've been running CNA 3.6.5 (a Slim Bean variant) which has much of what I would ever want, but it's no match for the responsiveness and 720p recording of Walter's MS2Ginger 3.0...

Not to mention no flash support after ICS.

Sad, but true.

That said, anybody have some screenshots of Walter's 5.0 to share?

Thx
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
SIO is default.
[Defy Android Development] joke19:
It's the same looking like 4.0 so use Google or YouTube.

Walter,

According to your suggestion, I've tried your zImage-2013-03-27-nfts-fuse kernel in your MS2Ginger5.0 ROM, but my 64GB NTFS card is still not recognized, at all That 'Blank card / unsupported filesystem' notification is kept in the status bar all the time, and whenever I try to mount the card in the storager settings, the operation fails.

By the way, I've tried this kernel of yours also in Quarx's new CM10.1 build, but, unfotunately, the ROM doesn't boot up.

So, I'm afraid I'm stuck in his 11/17 build for a long time.

Thanks, anyway.
[Defy Android Development] kye04:
the kernel is made for GB not ICS or JB....

I WISH I COULD USE IT IN CM7 ...
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
You need the ntfs mount app. ( paragon ntfs & hfs+)
[Defy Android Development] casouzaj:
Thank you, Walter! Paragon has indeed done the job with my NTFS card! Now, regarding the framework-res.apk with SIP capabilities you posted some days ago, firstly I tried to install it the usual way (just like any other apk), but it failed to get installed. Then, I pushed it into /system/app and changed its permissions, but I've noticed that the original framework-res.apk there was only 22 bytes long, whilst that one was 3MB+ instead. Anyway, after a reboot, I couldn't find any SIP settings under 'Call settings'. I've noticed that it seems to have an installable zip like file structure. Should I change its type to zip and try to flash it through CWM instead?

Thanks again, anyway.

UPDATE: although Paragon shows the card as mounted, and I can access its contents through a file browser, I still can't see pictures or movies or launch music tracks. Their corresponding applications simply go back one step, as soon as the media file is selected. So, although there is not that annoying 'unfotunately, process...has stopped' pop-up messages issued by Quarx's JB builds, NTFS handling is, unfotunetely, not ready in MS2Ginger5.0 yet. I'm, once again, going back to Quarx's CM10 11/17 build. Thanks for your efforts, though.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:

Yes, you can.

I am also using them after asked Walter previously.

Hello Walter,

Possible change settings icons because not original motorola and status bar icons? Gingerbread statusbar my opinion better, like Razr Style rom :)

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] kye04:
Why the CM settings fc ??
[Defy Android Development] NITRO_100:
Is this kind of gap in status bar normal ? If no how to get it normal ? Anyway in terms of speed and battery it's still very good.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
You can use MS2Ginger4.0 systemUI.apk this will fix this problem.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Good news for new multiboot. It works.

Based on HTC HD2 nativeSD boot. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1869673

2nd system will run from sdcard.

You will need 4 partitions on sdcard.

1x fat32

1x ext3 /system

1x ext4 /data

1x ext4 /cache

You can use normal update.zip. Only a few modifcations

MS2Ginger use 2nd-system to boot a "2nd-boot" or "2nd-init" rom direct from sdcard.

But you need modded ramdisk from 2nd-system rom (new partition layout)

Need to do some tests. If it is stable i will wrote a how to install.
[Defy Android Development] pawelsz:
Good but... partitioning SD card can be incompatible with others ROMs and off course with PC
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Fat32 is for PC. Windows can use only the first partition.
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
Walter, could you please prepare step-by-step guide, for when the time comes, HOW to Set Up dual boot, Creating necessary Partitioning, etc. with Links to the files we will need!

Thanks in advance!

Defy red len here.. Rom is pretty smooth so far, great work. But I can't overlock exceed 1000Mhz. In recovery menu if I set to 1100 Mhz the phone will not boot. Anything special I must do here?

And anyway we can enable SMS delivery report?
[Defy Android Development] pgreed:
Nice but how big ext3 and ext4 partitions will be? THX
[Defy Android Development] NITRO_100:
I overclocked with setvsel at 1100 Mhz.
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
You need to flash BLUR Apps from MS4G4.0 in order to be able to enable SMS Deliver Report :)
[Defy Android Development] farsight73:
No I would think of.. I made a flashable zip to restore conversation.apk and MSGinger 4.0 system UI. This is to address the dropdown layout and the No delivery report SMS in the MSGinger 5.0.

Flash this and you would have the normal Text Messaging app and a proper dropdown layout when you pull the top screen down. As you can see in the picture attached.

I have always the same isue, there is an old defy+ battery fix. You can grab it from Valter's dev host from folder of version 4.0. I got bootloop when installing it trough cwm so i copied the libbatd.so and battd files manually after renaming the originals, and changed their permissions on my own. Mine charged before that up to 87, now to 100%, and lasts 4 average days :)

I'm in the RIL problem! whenever the working RIL to defy the restart =P

I change rom but do not know which because I install all roms have this problem miserable

I live in Brazil, my operator is TIM, already tried different basebands but not giving right ta
[Defy Android Development] Persechini:
My defy originally came with a Vivo sbf, and with that I used the vivo baseband after installing CM9 and it worked. But using CEE sbf as base for CM10 it works correctly with central europe baseband (phone and data) but I can´t get any cell signal with brazillian baseband (tested vivo and brand-less basebands)
[Defy Android Development] lorcotti:
I am facing serious problems, I installed the sbf tim Brazil android 2.3.5 (that came from the factory) and still continues with reboots when the data connection is turned on, I can not leave the welcome screen

I'll try the brazilian retail

Bye bye nandroid backup installer.

I got a working "update.zip" for MS2Ginger.

You can install MS2Ginger like Cyanogenmod roms now.

Will upload this zip later.

MS2Ginger supports 3 way boot - 2nd-boot, 2nd-init* and stock way*

*works only with Moto GB kernel.

EDIT:

Next step Aroma-Installer = one zip for all defys

- you can select defy or defy+ battery

- soc camera or bayer camera

- Blur apps yes or no
[Defy Android Development] ktmbikerman:
Thanks for your continued support for our Defy Walter. My wife is using my Defy+ now and I think this will be the best rom for her. Will install once the zip is available.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
replace /bin/battd and /system/lib/libbattd.so.

Use defy+ files and set permissions.

Or use a defy+ battery patch. Can found in forum.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Aroma Installer is ready.

Will do some testing. If everything is ok i will upload new build.

Next build:

- Aroma Installer

- support for Defy and Defy+ battery (thanks to quarx)

- selectable soc cam support via Aroma

- selectable blurapps via Aroma

- selectable softsim unlock (only via 2nd-init = you will need moto gb kernel)

- selectable volumenwake mod

--> one installer for "all" defy

Good to know that! Huge progress! Congratulations! Any news on the media handling issue whenever the microSD card is NTFS-formatted?
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
Walter, I have experienced some bug with the cam in latest MS2G (V5).

When the cam is on, but you wait for best shot (on stand by) IF screens goes off and locks, while the cam is on stand by (while waiting for best condition to shoot), when you unlock screen the cam no longer responses.When click on the icon to call for cam app it makes effort to open but redirects you back to home screen and only restart phone could bring cam back to work (in that time you have missed half the event).

I have never had this issue before.

I think that is somehow related to GB cam in the new build, as till now I have always used stock Froyo cam, because of green strips (on preview window) in GB cam, and never experienced this problem till now in any of your MS2G builds.

I will try over the weekend MS2G v5 with stock Froyo cam and will report.

And another thing: After few days uptime the phone starts to lags considerably, in the same way as CM10 does. I could restart the phone ones a day to combat this issue ( not real problem for me) But ones again it haven`t been such an issue in your previous builds.
[Defy Android Development] kye04:
Fc alot in cyanogenmod settings....
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
can you try 2nd-init boot and report if you have lags?
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
I am re-installing your first build of v5 with Froyo cam, to check the cam issue and will switch to 2nd-init boot and will report later.

Is there a boot animation for ms2ginger? This is the first time I've tried it.

I've pulled the batter many times, tried flashing the 4/19 .zip wiping dalvik after, flashing the soc fix after and wiping dalvik, i've tried it without wiping dalvik. not sure what to do.

[Defy Android Development] tronjojo:
Sorry for noob questions:

i tried to go to moto recovery (both through pressing volume - and power button, and through the option in the 2nd-boot menu) both lead to the green android w/ exclamation point in a triangle screen. I thought i read somewhere about touching the bottom right hand corner to get into moto recovery, but it didn;t work.

So how exactly do i get to moto recovery to wipe data and cache? I reflashed cm10 to try and get to moto recovery as well with no luck. should i just rsd flash a new sbf. root and go straight to ms2ginger?

thanks, I'm eager to give this rom a try!

Fresh Froyo > New Aroma installer (default setting) + SOC Cam > 2nd-init boot > reboot = stack on M Logo

back to settings > Boot > 2nd-boot (default) enabled > Reboot = boots normal

What are for: 2nd-boot-uart and 2nd-system options in Boot menu?

P.S. Cam stays steady now even after period of time on stand by. Will check over the weekend and report back later on haw it behaves.

P.S. Changing CPU Governors to Smartass = Constant Reboots

Roms

I just got a new Motorola Defy Plus and I would like to upgrade from the

Gingerbread 2.3.x stock rom which came with the phone to a newer stock

rom but so far all I see here are CM10, CM9, CM7, AOKP and AOSP roms.

So I would like to know if there is any such thing as a rooted stock or custom

rom which is not a CM7,CM9, CM10 AOSP/AOKP rom?

What I am really looking for is a custom or stock ICS or Jellybean

rom which has nothing to do with all these CyanogenMod roms.

I also have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and that has many custom roms available for it which have nothing to

do with CyanogenMod roms so I thought that the same would hold true for the Motorola Defy Plus phone.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Reinstalled > Volume Buttons OK

At the end of installation, when AROMA installer ask for Reboot, when clicked Yes it says ... Error > Installation Aborted and bring you back to Boot Menu as if you have to start from the beginning like, BUT I went ahead and Reboot from within Boot Menu and everything seems OK for now.
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
As before, Cam Opens only ones (first time from fresh install). After that "Cam is unable to initialize" and FC

Reboot (takes too long) sort this out for ONE time use only and after that the same FC.

The same Apps all time. MS2G v3 THE Best for Green Lens so far. Everything's working as it should.

I do not know What and by How much every next rom is changed in order to make it so unstable and apart from Defy Red and Defy+, and apart of the Cam How much Defy (green lens) differ from Defy Red Lens and Defy+?

Going back to MS2G v3 which, from experience, is THE Best rom for Defy Green Lens

[Defy Android Development] MelquiXDA:
Why remove the light from buttons?
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Please post logs. Did you tried a different camera app? Try the rom without soc support and you can check why the new rom is much better then 3.0. MS2G 3.0 for soc use froyo libs, froyo kernel. I did not own a soc cam defy. What else is "unstable" for soc defy on MS2Ginger 5.0
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
On 2nd-boot i have problems with setting button lights via build

prop and init.d. I will fix this. But on my defy buttons always out. Without working backlight module buttons will be ultra bright not all defy like this. Thats why it is disabled. You can replace framework-res

apk and use 4.0 version. That will enable lights.
[Defy Android Development] nedywest71:
The v5 of MS2G is much quicker and responsible from v3 and except Cam it seems everything else is perfect BUT I need a stable Cam for everyday business use.

I did not try different Cams apps as I am happy with stock Cam for my needs.

I always try new roms starting from Stock Froyo without any custom apps installed and SD card fresh formatted.

New Aroma installer gave me a Error > Installation aborted after it says "successesfuly installed, please Reboot". In two occasions with Rom downloaded from your Dev account and ones downloaded from your SkyDrive account.

Yesterday it has installed as it should But the Volume Buttons did not work.

Previous zip. install and GB cam support zip > install OK BUT Cam FC after first shot and only Reboot give me a chance to shoot again (ones)

Could you please, point me to the First zip. install and the FROYO cam support zip. to try again, as I flashed them at the beginning but did not use it long enough to see how it performers as I have flashed soon after GB Cam support zip which give me FC all time.

Thanks for your work, mate :)

Even if I do not make it to v5 I am quite happy with v3 :)

Media handling still failing with NTFS cards?

Walter, I already asked this question a couple of days ago, but, as usual, it got lost amongst a sea of other posts. Anyway, have you, by any chance, managed to address the issue in which all media resources are not able to access the card contents whenever it is NTFS-formatted, although it is correctly mounted,,as seen by any file browsers?

Thanks, anyway.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Will try to fix this after SOC works better.
[Defy Android Development] casouzaj:
