MS2Ginger 3.0 NG for one day.

Major problem I found - camcoder not working.

I m unable record anything, it just force-closes, i have even tried with LG Camera, displays recording failed.

With 2.1, i never had these problems. Is there any solution for this?
[Defy Android Development] NITRO_100:
Don't install it, put it in system/app and set permissions.
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
Dont know what was the issue. i have blocked some of the system apks using titannium, i defroz and restarted, camcoder started working. I then did freez all again which were frozen before, restarted, still the camcoder is working fine.

I do not understand what sequence caused this issue, or wil try to find out if any particular video codec/bitrate fails.

Any way to install razrblurcamera on stock 2.2.2?
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
I decompile all app. PL language is from a 2.3.5 CEE rom.
[Defy Android Development] rishi2100:
very high RAM consumption.. only 38 MB free....:(

otherwise, its a great ROM...:)
[Defy Android Development] NITRO_100:
A script like supercharger will solve ram issues ;).

I've failed in loading MS2Ginger2.1 on my DEFY+.

What I've done:

-ROOT

-install 2ndInit Recovery (version 2.0; chose the stable version when asked (the one that said that it's for CM and MIUI))

-Download version v2.1 of this ROM for DEFY+

-Follow the guide for installing

I haven't found the options mentioned in these steps, so I've skipped them:

My phone booted up to a reset state, but it's the same as it was the first day I've turned it on, nothing like the screenshots, and no mentioned features.

What have I done wrong? Is the problem in the steps I've skipped? My MB526 is on Android 2.3.4 (was and still is)
[Defy Android Development] remix96:
Install MS2Ginger 2.1...

How i can install MS2Ginger 2.1 - Multilaunguage Edition Blur, on my Defy MB525?

I have this camera module (Bayer device), so can i record video at 720p?

And which version i need to download with that camera module?

And... can i flash this Rom from CM9, with this installation method:

Thanks in advance for responses ;)
[Defy Android Development] pprakash:
@niksy+ You haven't restored the backup and hence nothing happened to your Defy. You need to press Vol- while the Blue LED lights up during reboot. There you can select Custom Recovery and see the Backup & Restore options
[Defy Android Development] yamandude:
:P . ... how do you set permissions ?
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Well, I have... :/

So, these are the steps for installing ms2g. The ones in green are the ones I did and ones in red are the ones I didn't find the options for (and therefore skipped):

Root your DEFY and Install BOOTMENU - CWM (2ndInit-Installer 2.0.apk - install 1.0.7) or use this SndInitDefy_2.0.apk

REBOOT

run 2nd-init (voldown on blue LED)

wipe data and cache in "Stable/Custom - Recovery"

Go to "Recovery"

Go to "Latest Recovery"

Go to "Backup and Restore"

Go to "Restore" (system+data)

Select "ms2ginger..." and confirm

Go to "Backup and Restore"

Select "Advance Restore"

Select "ms2ginger..." and confirm

Select "boot" and confirm

Go to "Backup and Restore"

Select "Advance Restore"

Select "ms2ginger..." and confirm

Select "devtree" and confirm

Go to "Backup and Restore"

Select "Advance Restore"

Select "ms2ginger..." and confirm

Select "recovery" and confirm

reboot.

What I do have in Advanced Restore / MSGinger2.1 / is:

Restore boot

Restore system

Restore data

Restore cache

Restore sd-ext

There are no "Restore devtree" or "Restore recovery" options..!

Is Restore devtree = Restore cache and Restore recovery = Restore sd-ext?

FC email with attachment

Hi Walter,

I've done a clean installation (wiped everything) and tried in French and English.

Here are the logcat
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Got it working :) Okay, so, it's not a big change from the stock DEFY+ 2.3.4, but most of the new things are good! Like the switches in the status bar, for example.

-The speed is the same as the stock 2.3.4 on DEFY+, I've kinda expected an improvement, but I guess this is not that kind of a ROM. Or the speed will be improved in v3? :)

-That keyboard app... "Moto input"? It's ugly and it doesn't seem more functional than "Multi Touch Keyboard", so I kinda miss the point of having it... But maybe I'm wrong!

-720p recording - great!!! :D (panorama shots were already there on the stock ROM :P :) )

-First startup... The phone asked me to set up my Google account, then my MotoBlur account and then the last steps of Blur setup asked me for my Google account, which, when I put my user/pass in, it said that that account is already set up...of course :D I think only the Blur account set up should be there at startup, to avoid this inconvenience :)

-There are two e-mail apps in the menu, one with a red stamp and the other with a yellow stamp... Why are there two of them? I'd like to install them both and install the Gmail app solely, would that be okay? Is there a list of apps that are safe to be uninstalled?

-When the phone is locked and one presses the power button, first the buttons light up and then the screen :/ Does everybody have this same behavior?

Overall, this is a nice and solid improvement over the stock ROM! Thank you, walter79, for your hard work! I hope that v3 will prolong the list of improvements! :)

I really need to try MS2Ginger 3... Could u please tell me the procedure to install it...

I see only System files... so no dev tree, boot or recovery...
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Install 2.1 first (procedure is on page 1 of this thread. Then just wipe data/cache/dalvik and restore system+data from 3.0
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Wipe data and cache. Restore system only use cwm 5.0.3.1 after this flash the 4.5.3-109 fixed sbf or flash 4.5.2-109-dht-22 via cwm.
[Defy Android Development] AeroFlip:
If i do this, i´ll still be able to downgrade right?
[Defy Android Development] Proda:
Yes u will be...Cause it is FixedSBF.
[Defy Android Development] marco_:
Any chance this will work on a Defy+ with DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-132 Full SBF?

I really don't understand these built numbers
[Defy Android Development] AeroFlip:
AFAIK no. You can´t downgrade from that because it´s full and not fixed.
[Defy Android Development] marco_:
thanks for your explanation. As mentioned, I can't wrap my head around these build numbers.

But anyway; before you answered I did a system-onre restore, and it's working. :)

Installation of MS2Ginger V3

I would like to install MS2Ginver V3 test rom. I have read many posts. Still not sure about the installation of V3.

I have a BAYER Defy. I'm on CM7.2 120121 now. I have CWM v.5.0.3.2. Can I use it and restore system from MS2Ginver V3 NANDROID?

Anyway, shouldn't I start from a clean 2.2 CEE SBF? If yes, shall I install MS2Ginger V2.1 first or just restore V3 and flash 4.5.3-109 fixed sbf?

Issues with Wi-Fi and SIP calling request

Hey, Walter,

After having read some posts on this thread stating that MS2Ginger3,0NG-RC would be working in green lensed Defies after installation of your GreenbreadMod Test 2, I've decided to jump in. So far, so good. It seems to be faster than 2.1.

Nevertherless, I'm facing some problems with Wi-Fi now. You see, I never do any encryptions. I have my home router set to peform MAC address filtering instead. Besides, in all the ROMs I flash, I always set the Wi-Fi sleep policy to 'never', since I'm home most of time. Well, the problem is that every couple of minutes, Wi-Fi disconnects and reconnects. Any hints?

Now a request, if I may: I recall having already asked you this for 2.1, but I got no answer then. Anyway, would it be possible for you, or any other skilled dev here, to make a CWM-installable zip with Gingerbread's builtin SIP internet calling?

Thanks a lot for your efforts, anyway.

Best regards,

Carlos
[Defy Android Development] barf99:
Hi Walter,

Finally got around to installing NG-RC on Defy red lens. I like how it is faster.

How can I get call recording working as in 2.1? Can I just copy over some library files, and if so, which ones?

Camera working fine, but notice there are less zoom levels. I recall the stock had 6 zoom levels, while the new camera has 4. Any way of getting back to finer steps for zoom?

Other than that, haven't encountered any real issue yet - good work!
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
I did not use camera zoom because it is a digital zoom. You can replace BlurCamera.apk with the one from 2.1. I will add call record libs in final version. There is a thread with this libs in developer section.

[Defy Android Development] Garuxa:
Some Questions (maybe noobs :o): Today will be installing this ROM (as I can not wait until Feb. 5 to install this ROM)

- I should install version 2.1 or install the version 3.0-RC?

- When they launch the final version 3.0 is required to clear everything to install that version? or just simply a wipe cache and dalvik cache and that's it? (My defy have red lens)

- Compared to photo and video quality that makes the defy with this rom is much better quality compared to WIUI, MIUI or CM7?

- FMRadio Works Fine?

Thank you for taking the trouble to answer :)
[Defy Android Development] zed_fauji:
walter is this your rom compatible with Mutiboot. can i multiboot it with cm9?
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
It works only with 4.5.2-109-DHT-22 or 4.5.1-134-DFP-74 kernel and bootmenu with 3 options for recovery.

Mayebe it works with 4.5.3-109-DHT-11 kernel if you change ramdisk from CM7/9.
[Defy Android Development] Invicta:
a small help. to install this rom all i have to do is:

1.download ms2ginger 2.1-soc-green-lens-defy

2.download 4.5.3.109-fixed.sbf

3.clear data and cache

4.recover the nandroid backup which is #1

5.install with rsdlite #2

6.reboot the phone as normal

am i getting it right?
[Defy Android Development] yamandude:
Yea ure rite :)
[Defy Android Development] Invicta:
i forgot #7 which is PROFIT :D

on a more serious note, given that gingerbread comes with a new kernel which is .35 i think does this 2rom has the new kernel? and if i want say to go back to froyo, a full sbf will do the trick or does it something more special to do it?
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
do not install 4.5.3-109-fixed.sbf

5. advance restore - boot

6. advabce restore - devtree

7. advance restore - recovery

There is no .35 kernel for Defy and Defy+
