but there is no clockwork recovery software in the rom so I install and reboot the phone now I am in boot loop I try to flash fixed attached SBF defy file but still boot loop

please help me asap

[Defy Android Development] grannyrogers:
Since you have no recovery installed (your phone is bricked) you are going to have to start from scratch. Install full froyo .sbf of your choosing with rsdlite and root it. Then intstall 2ndinit recovery.
[Defy Android Development] ryan8r:
Just wondering if the milestone fixed sbf provided with the RC1 can be flashed onto the Defy or is it specifically for the Milestone2?
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
It is only for Milestone 2. Defy need fixed-sbf for Defy.

Comments/Sugestion/Bug Report and Many Thanks

Dear Walter 1st I would like to say Big Thanks from my heart for creating such a nicer rom, I missed only two things for my DEFY 720p recording and Call recorder you put these two essential everyday stuff so nicely and I throughly used both and that's work Preciously and fine, I record lots of video during my trip to Wales and Seaside I will publish it soon on youtube, I was so amazed when I see 720p video in my 32" LG HD telivision its so awasome and perfect without any arteffect, no freeze between play and call recorder is perfect as well

I was very confused as I am trying any custom rom for my defy 1st time coz in the past I done many time with my Samsung omnia and I bricked my phone few time,

I have some question and suggestion regarding your rom

on the uploded .zip there is two fixed SBF one is Milestone 2 and another for DEFY can you please tell me which one I can used for my Motorola DEFY UK retail version with android 2.2.2? and for Nandroid which file I can use for Recovery?

When I install recovery .apk and install CWM recovery and restart my phone it got into Boot Loop mode and I thought I lost my defy forever but then I flash full SBF using RSD lite and got 2.2 back than I install your rom again and install different version of Clockwork recovery and it never get me into boot loop,

Few Bugs: Caller ID did not show relating names, in call log list there is chinese written below the phone number I dont know what is that

In-pocket ditection did not work on many occation

Suggestion: When you make rom or update next time can you please fixed the caller id and call log chinese things dsiplay problem

Is that any way to increase Frame rate in 720p video recording ? I got 23 to 24 FPS because of that video look like shaky sometime

After flashing I got completely different version number and built than shown here, can I know that reason , I am posting screenshot here

I know you are busy person but appri. of you post more detail flashing methood on your next or existing rom? when can I can see the next release of your rom?

Try to give more plain rom and post the link for apk file which is not part of system but user can install easily if they want

you creation saved my lots of money buying another phone you efford will be honoured

Thanks and keep going and doing good work

I just want to say that walters ms2ginger is best balance of speed, compatibility and stability. I got really tired of beta quality of cyanogen mod and its modifications. Quarx roms are excellent but google is pushing android so fast that even amazing people like Quarx cannot follow.

softsimunlock with ms2ginger4.0 on mb526

Can anyone tell me precisely how to get the softsimunlock to work on a clean build of ms2ginger4.0 on a defy+ (mb526)

I installed ms2ginger (MS2Ginger4.0.zip) using the nandroid restore method - it works fine except for the sim unlock issue

then from cwm custom restore i installed the Defy+battery.zip

then from cwm custom restore i installed the defy-soft-simunlock-ms2ginger4.zip

then i put sim in phone of the carrier it is locked to, booted up and all was ok. shutdown again.

switched to sim from another network, booted up and still get asked sim unlock code....

am I missing a step? do i need to fix permissions of anything ?

Thanks in advance

hi

I almost bricked my phone twice trying to install this rom. I already have CM7 with 2ndinit

Why is this not as simple as other roms in wich u only have to install .zip from CWM ?

Can you please help me and post a more specific way to install it to a defy + ??

What are exactly the steps and the files needed ? Defy+ only pls.

Thank you in advance.

EDIT

Managed to do it...

Do i have to install also one of the kernels in order to make it smooth ??
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Depends on your phone and your BL version. i use dpp11 best battery. dht22 better perfomance.
[Defy Android Development] Kargi:
Witch one is for BL7?
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
If you are on BL7, you can't flash another kernel or you'll get a BL error
[Defy Android Development] adiif1:
Who have link to MsGinger 3.0? 4.0 is a very lag
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
It's all in the OP.
[Defy Android Development] kye04:
I do not think the problem is the rom itself...

Usually the fast /smooth depends 99% of the kernel.

In htc i had a rom with different kernels , some of them working laggy some of them extremely smooth on the same rom..

So the main problem is that the defy requires a good kernel.... that means probably depends alot on the .SBF you have....

This really sucks on motorola , you cannot just patch kernels thru CWM just like htc etc...

Hi guys.

From the manual in the first post it's not clear which file should I apply for GREEN lens phone?

MS2Ginger4-greenbread-with-3.4.2-179-kernel.zip? OR MS2Ginger4-greenbread-witout-kernel.zip? Or both?

I'm confused. Will appreciate your explanation.
[Defy Android Development] raimondomartire:
Hi, i've this situation:

4) green lens

When flah your rom battery stop charge to 86%. I don't flash your kernel just becouse bootloop when try1 Please tell me correct steps. Thanks
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Flash correct battd files.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Good news.

Custom kernel boots with MS2Ginger.

But still a lot of work.

First log. Maybe someone can help.

http://pastebin.com/haT65naZ

On my google drive mirror (MS2Ginger folder 5.0) you can find a first 2nd-boot-beta version for testing. ADB works. If i got kernel on my defy full work i will make a update.zip for beta testing.

it is compatible with Ms2Ginger 4.0 or only for beta version Ms2Ginger ?

@Walter79

Are your kernel sources online anywhere? I'm curious cause I know that Bravo users will want to use this rom and we need some tweaks to the kernel for our touch buttons. I'd have used 4.0 as a daily on my Bravo but I required tethering at the time --my old pc didn't have wifi card, so I tethered my home wifi -- MS2G phones home to validate tethering making it unusable for me; new pc has wifi so no tethering isn't an issue for me now.

I also can't get 4.0 to boot on my Green Lens Defy.

Steps I took - coming from ICS kanged a week ago

Factory Reset

Restore Nandroid

Flashed Greenbread with Kernel

Reboot

I know its not the kernel since I'm still using it with ICS. I'm currently on BL4, but I don't really care about going back to stock\froyo\eclair -- so is there a preferred sbf to flash a Green Lens to run Defy Plus roms? As long as its not a Chinese kernel that'll kill my flash I don't care about BL version.

Would you rather have me install 5.0 and give some Green Lens feedback? I'm not gonna bother with 5.0 on the Bravo until there's a custom kernel available -- Bravo will need some tweaking and I'd rather wait and tweak once a kernel is available to hopefully kang some of Quarx's JB Bravo patches over.

//No I won't :cowboy:
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Uhmm... Have no idea if that was a serious question, but... It's November rain. Can I haz my internetz now? :D

Be that as it may, I eagerly await a custom kernel MSGinger build :) I also hope that the kernel be tweaked like JellyX is, rather than being there just for unified compatibility (:
[Defy Android Development] molchmolch:
I flashed the version MS2Ginger-2012-11-20.14.20.13 but I got nothing new.

Same kernel as before, Build-Number MS2Ginger-4.0...
[Defy Android Development] skeevydude:
I'm probably wrong, but 5.0 might not be any more than 4.0 with a boot menu that allows 2nd-kernel booting. I don't think it actually comes with a kernel, just supports it -- like the latest ICS.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
This a test build that supports booting custom kernel.

5.0 will get his own kernel. Why should i release a new rom without kernel?
[Defy Android Development] GuiPoM:
I have the same issue but can't find an answer. Simlocked defy for which I wanted to use MS2Ginger rom. I flashed rom, appropriate kernel (green) and zip for soft simunlock. But I lost root access and I can't get it back. Root is working if I do not flash soft simunlock but then I can't use the phone :D

Any help would be appreciated !

Anybody please? Which file should I use for GREEN lens phone? With kernel, without or both?

Thank you.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
first try without kernel.
[Defy Android Development] Horilka:
Thank you. I tried first without kernel. Camera works fine, camcoder reboots phone. Then I cleared cache and dalvik cache and installed zip with kernel. Same result - camera works, camcoder reboots phone.

Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.

P.S. As a base I have FULL SBF 3.4.3-36-1.7 SEA 15

Battery Problem

Hi Guys,

I have been using MS2Ginger 3.0 for quite sometime as i needed a stable rom for daily use cz cm9 and cm10 are still under work by our awesome devs. :good:

:cowboy: Love the 720p vdo recording and pano mode in cam in this rom

That said i have a small problem. strangely my battery lasts for 12-14 hours at max with normal useage of wifi, 3g, music. Very rarely i play games to drain my battery. i am using 4.5.3-109-DPP-11-gingerbread-BL5-kernel.zip kernel with 3.0 rom.

I have gone through many files and have tried different battd files but i am not able to get a better battery life as people claim to get on this rom. :crying::rolleyes:

Can anyone having great batt life please share ur battd zip with me. I have MB525 bayer lens.

Thankx...
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Try LG-Camera or replace camera.apk with one from froyo. Post a logcat please.

3g use a lot of battery. try 2g if you not need 3g. Check your screen on time. 5h display on. are very good.
[Defy Android Development] Horilka:
Worked out really strange. I prepared two alternative camera applications, did clean install again, applied "without kernel" module, enabled logcat and both camera and camcoder work fine now with not need for alternative apks.

However phone seems to be sluggish in reacting and NoFrills CPU reboots system. Applications like HDR Camera and half of the CyanogenMod Settings just crash. Also experience at least one random system reboot, while phone was idle.

[Defy Android Development] Horilka:
My original ROM (3.4.3-36-1.7 SEA 15) Overclock settings are:

300/600/1000 and 33/48/58.

Status: Enable

Load all modules: disable.

Governor: On demand.

When I install MS2Ginger:

300/600/1000/1000* and 30/40/56/56*

Status: Enable

Load all modules: Enable

Governor: On Demand.

System keeps rebooting.

I tried to play with all setting:

Status: Enable/disable

Load all modules: disable/enable

Made these settings: 300/600/800/800 and 33/48/58/58.

It keeps rebooting.

The only thing that made better is Governor: kickass, at least ROM stopped rebooting by itself, however every CPU related app reboots it (like SetVsel or NoFrills CPU).

Above results are regardless the file I use: MS2Ginger4-greenbread-with-3.4.2-179-kernel.zip or MS2Ginger4-greenbread-witout-kernel.zip.

Can't figure out what's wrong :\
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
AW: [ROM][GB][2012.08.21]MS2Ginger, 720p, panorama - 2nd-system, multiboot,softsimunl

Disable overclock in bootmenu.
[Defy Android Development] Horilka:
When I set

Status: disable

Load all modules: disable

then system boots up and works, however applications like SetVsel or NoFrills CPU reboot system anyway. Is that the way it supposed to be? Basically regarless of the overclocking settings all CPU apps reboots phone.
[Defy Android Development] Horilka:
I think I'm getting closer.

The problem is in combination of the ROM and patches for the GREEN lens (MS2Ginger4-greenbread-with-3.4.2-179-kernel.zip or MS2Ginger4-greenbread-witout-kernel.zip). I tried GingerSpeed 1.2 (plus 4.5.3-109_dpp-11 kernel) and the system was amazingly fast (of course camera didn't work). But when I apply fixes for GREEN camera - (GreenBread-2.3.6-4.5.3-DPP-14-ramdisk.zip didn't work ot at all, so I applied MS2Ginger4-greenbread-with-3.4.2-179-kernel.zip) then system becomes sluggish and reboots on CPU applications.

Changing the kernel back so it's compatible with GREEN lens should not give such a horrible effect, should it?

Is there anybody here using this ROM with GREEN lens? Please share your experience.

Wow youre fast! Well thanks for the fast reply. I will try a new version of the apk.

What about the toggles scrollbar offset? Cant this be solved by editing some lines in the status_bar_expanded.xml or the xiaozhu_zhu_settings.xml of the SystemUI.apk? I tried to understand that layout stuff and played a bit with editing those two files but cant seem to get it right. Is there eventually some work needed on those smali files?

Thank you. This combination (MS2G 4.0 > GreenBread 2.3.6-4.5.3-109-DPP-11-ramdisk+blurcamera) works very stable. However after several attempts of using I made conclusion that it's slow subjectively and objectively (Antutu benchmak).

As I can see from benchmarks green lens patches really kill performance.

It's not that really bad, however if compare with the same ROM without GREEN lens patch or compare with 2.2.1-2.2.2 based ROMs - it's slower. I like the ROM, however, author did a great job, it's all those damn GREEN lens %)

hi guys I need a urgent help hope you can help.. I wanted to try ms2ginger but I can't install it via cwm restore..

what I did..

- flash stock sbf on my defy+ bl7

- root

- installed 2nd init 2.3

- uncompressed MS2Ginger4.0.zip and and put the uncompressed folder to /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup

- went to custom recovery (it says v5.0.3.1) > wipe data/factory reset

- went to backup and restore > advanced restore

then I select MS2Ginger4.0 and press power button.. but when I do this it doesn't do anything... and I can't see the option to agree with the install (yes).. I just see empty dashes and then "go back".. like this:

below.. when I press power button it just says:

and nothing.. do you know why? please help thanks!
