I disagree because only kernel is different and any nand backup (assuming it contains kernel in the first place*) should be able to write over different kernel.

What I very often do is - I got CEE clean (with 2ndinit and root) nand backup and I just load this nand backup after I install any different kernel ROM - when I want to go back to Wajk WIUI 2.11.17 for example.

The only difference was Epys ISC newest nighlty which set EXT4 format to E: what in my case caused the problem that nand could not mount E:/cache, E:/restore etc. And than I had to go to SBF rescue - last time even twice I load SBF, because first time no luck.

Remember that after loading SBF you have to have on your SD card GingerBreak 1.2 for root and SndInitDefy 1.4.2 for CWM access.

Good luck!

* I noticed that - for example Wajks - MB526 DEFY ROM's got no kernel inside and MB525 ROM install got kernel inside - so when making nand backup you got it or not depending what DEFY version you've got. Nowadays new kernel is for both MB525 and MB526 DEFY's.

BTW

Anyone using Wajk's 2.11.17 version got problems with Tethering?
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
Thank's for your anwser!

"The only difference was Epys ISC newest nighlty which set EXT4 format to E" I think you have found the problem! How could i format it like it should be before restoring?? It should be enouth to restore my save.
[Defy Android Development] m_zet:
I search the Internet I asked uncle Google - no luck - I also did ask the same question here on XDA with no answer.

The only resolution was to go with SBF file.
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
Back to Wiui GB!

Thank's a lot for your help!

SO in fact i am back to GB! ALl is ok now! Fiu!! :D

All done under linux. :)
[Defy Android Development] m_zet:
So how you did it without loading SBF?

Come on - share a secret...
[Defy Android Development] burritoboy9984:
For those running a normal Defy (green lens), which do you find to have a longer lasting battery and be more stable? The GB version with Froyo kernel? Or GB version with GB kernel?

Thanks!
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
I have flashed a sbf. I do not find any other solution. I have asked quarx, ask the question in a lot of topic, but no answer. So no solution, i have flashed the SBF.

And it was easy then i was thinking and could be done under linux so it does not take a lot of time.
[Defy Android Development] m_zet:
On latest GB build I got two minor issues:

- ringtone sets loudness as it wants - can not really repeat that, but it happens;

- rotation is off after reboot.

Great news for anyone who wants to do Panorama under GB ROM - just install Camera ICS by Moblynx.

Working ultra nicely!
[Defy Android Development] darkkinder:
Wajk great gb rom, I have one question, how I can put the buttons brightness in 0%?
[Defy Android Development] pradeeppk:
Settings > Display Settings > Advanced mode > Edit other levels > Set all button values to zero
[Defy Android Development] darkkinder:
thanks, but can I use these values (0%) with automatic brightness in off? because with automatic brightness in off the advanced mode is not available.

EDIT: it seems that placing the values in 0% and turn off the automatic brightness, the buttons brightness continuous in 0%, only sometimes when I go in settings the LEDs "turn on", and "turn off" (0%) again.

again, thanks!

I love the features and speed of GB edition. However, I do not like MIUI icon styling. Is there any way I could get rid of those custom icons so that I can use any other Launcher and get a Stock android feel and MIUI functionality?
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
There is a lot of icone pack on the thèmes option...
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
I am testing this kernel with the GB plus version.

All seems to be ok for the moment. The apn seems to be better now.

[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
Help please

I think I bricked my Defy, I installed the latest WIUI JB build coming from WIUI ICS, an it got in to boot loop, then I tried installing the stable GB and still bootloop, after that I installed my previous ICS and now I can't even enter the recovery

Please help, my defy is green lense
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
You will have to flash a sbf. I do not see any other solution for now.

The problem before was the kernel i think. But now you will have to flash an original SBF with rsd lite.

You can find the original SBF of defy here:

http://sbf.droid-developers.org/umts_jordan/list.php
[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
If I flash an original sbf, do I need to install 2nd init again to install WIUI?

thanks

I flashed twice the nordic sbf but I'm still stuck at the motorola logo, sigh.
[Defy Android Development] Anands3:
Go to stock recovery and wipe data and cashe
[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
done that, I'm having error in stock recovery, after formatting cache it says

"E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log"

maybe its a hardware issue?
[Defy Android Development] panhans:
1. turn off your phone

2. hold down volume down + power

3. after the android logo flashes up, press volume up + volume down

4. now you can rewrite your cache partitions

Dont know if the recovery works well after this... If not you have to flash a sbf, root your phone again, install cwm and flash your rom!
[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
That's how I did, but still after flashing the sbf and rebooting it is still stuck at the motorola logo, when I initiate the stock recovery I have these 3 errors

"E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/command"

"E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/caller"

"E:Can't mount CACHE:recovery/log"

even after wiping cache partition it still displays that
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
It was my pb! I have to flash the sbf to roll back to my miui

---------- Post added at 07:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:53 PM ----------

-Flash the SBF

-reboot

-After that wipe data and cashe from the original recovery

-boot the original rom

-root the phone

-install the 2init

Then flash the rom that you want like wiui JB or GB. Or roll back to your rom.
[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
I've done everything you said, but during flashing of sbf, while the rsd lite is rebooting my phone it is stuck in the motorola logo, it does not continue to boot to home,

after installing wiui JB I can still enter custom recovery, after that I tried installing wiui GB and still failed, after I tried installing wiui ICS I can't go to custom recovery, the blue led does not light during start up, I can still enter stock recovery and bootloader mode
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
As i said, after the reboot of the sbf flash. You have to go in the stock recovery (press power + volume - and then VOL + and VOL- )

THen clean all from here! Cache and data! Normaly after that, you should be able to boot the original rom! There is no reason that you could not has itt's the original rom!
[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
I did exactly what you said, but I can't get past that motorola logo after wiping everything
[Defy Android Development] Anands3:
Try here : Is your DEFY/DEFY+ bricked
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
Are you sure about the SBF that you flashed? I do not see any other reason.
[Defy Android Development] pprakash:
I had come across the same issue. What I did

1. After messing it up downloaded and installed NORDIC SBF ( Mine is Red Lens Defy )

2. After RSDLite rebooted .. My phone was stuck in "android"

3. Pulled battery booted into Stock Recovery by pressing Power+Volume Down

4. Performed Factory Reset, Wipe Data & Wipe Cache

5. Rebooted and My Defy booted to Stock Froyo. From here its usual steps as mentioned in OP.

I think this issues are caused by EXT4 Filesystem which CMX converts in the chain. But not 100% sure though.
[Defy Android Development] nonsense91:
Finally I got it working, the reason it does not work the first time is I'm flashing a fixed sbf, after flashing a full sea 2.2 sbf it worked the third time

many thanks to those who help and spared their time

Is this rom still in works? or its already dead?
[Defy Android Development] Anands3:
What do u think???
[Defy Android Development] kokubunji:
Very informatie answer... thx man...

After reading two last pages, and wajk being offline from almost a month, it sems dead...
[Defy Android Development] oSandmaNo:
He has a life?
[Defy Android Development] Hider141:
Dude, just check out the first page of the thread!

And to answer to your questions, it's not dead. I didn't follow this thread in the last couple of weeks so I'm not really sure if Wajk still develops updates for the GB version, but the JB version is still under continued development. As soon as Quarx releases a new nightly, and Wajk has got some spare time he will incorporate new mods or corrections into the JB build of WIUI.

Hi all

My kids want to use the WIUI ringtone from my Defy Plus on their phones - I am using the Stable GB+ ver of WajkIUI . Have tried to locate the file so that I can send a copy to their phones, but no luck. Any pointers on how to do this?

Thanks in advance for any help.

I also have a FC when i try to customize Compact Toggle mode.

Hope in the new miui update will be fixed.

cheers
[Defy Android Development] WIIstpM:
Hwta do you think is better? WIUI or GalnetMIUI?
[Defy Android Development] cammel:
I know you didn't asked me, but I think this one is better than galnet's miui...been switching between those two,and finally keep wiui, it seems faster to me, and not even one force close by now. ..

[Defy Android Development] Wajk:
Yes, auto-brightness on/off bug solved by MIUI
[Defy Android Development] vicked:
Not a problem. We faced this reboot problem (with my whole family, we use 3 defy :P ). Our solution was:

1, change the language back to English.

2, if some program wants to get some security permission, then wait for the pop-up window and grant it.

3, change back to Hungarian language.

This solution works if you have some software, what asks for permission from time to time. Hope it helps.
[Defy Android Development] diamond_lover:
The fix is not here, I try to load the module in miui but I still have hangups with class10 mSD, with latest cm7 nightly it run well.

Someone have any idea?
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
it's in the sd card, on miui/ringtones, but i am not sure that it contain all, or just the one you have downloaded.
[Defy Android Development] m_zet:
Mates - relax.

Wajk got exams - btw good luck again on that WAJK!

For the ringtones:

Go /system/media/audio/ringtones

ofc you got to have rootexplorer for example.
[Defy Android Development] Persechini:
for the default system ringtones you could unzip the downloaded ROM on your computer (or use a file manager with root access on your phone) and search for .ogg and .mp3 files (I'm not sure the path, system\media\audio maybe?)

[Defy Android Development] m_zet:

[Defy Android Development] Wajk:
answers and news

Smartass replaced by Smartassv2. Just select Smartass in Bootmenu and after check your choice with SetCPU or other CPU manager app.

When I used it working for me, i check it again.

Before I released new version I want to test it. So I don't often release new versions.

In my opinion two weeks not equal "almost a month".

If you would like to know, why I was offline, just search in this topic.

I love you guys, but my real life important than my Defy ;)

Thnx for your tipp

other news: I had couple days between exams and I working on new JB ROM, but unfortunetly my Defy's internal memory's was gone. I didn't see similar, but i will try to fix it. (I flash back SBF, but my Defy still can't access to internal memory, maybe damaged or I don't know.)
[Defy Android Development] HiPPoNaX:
I had the same problem after using Quarx CM10 with 2ndboot kernel. The problem is: the 2ndboot versions of CM10 are using ext4 formatted /data and /cache partitions. When you flash some older ROM (for example WIUI 2.11.17) after CM10, you can't mount those partitions and the device hotboots very often. My solution was the following for the problem: I reflashed CM10, and from the boot menu choose Tools -> File system tools -> Format DATA and CACHE to ext3. Important: don't wipe data/cache from the recovery after this, because it will reformat the partitions to ext4. Just flash WIUI from the recovery and you are done. After those steps my Defy works like a charm with WIUI 2.11.17 :)
[Defy Android Development] panhans:
I've installed Hike, an whatsapp alternative. Every time I want to verify my telephone number I got a reboot. :\
[Defy Android Development] pradeeppk:
Agreed.

But smartassv2 have more options in bootmenu than smartass.
[Defy Android Development] Wajk:
When this bug arrived I used normal JB, not new kernel version. After one restart internal memory was gone. But of course I tried format, but before some Wipe Data enough for booting. (I tried format, Wipe Data, Cache, Factory Reset, flashed many type of roms)

I could fix any problem, when I flash back full SBF (CEE 2.2) and after I used stock Factory Reset. But not now.

Under stock ROM I never seen similar. (Sometimes not booting and etc.)

I will try to fix it....

Check root app and allow access for that app.

Agreed, i will check bootmenu source

Those having Defy+ and using the GB ROM, which version is best for battery for you? I found 2.5.27 best it has some bugs (Firewall doesn't activate on reboot, battery icon changes to numeric /percentage on reboot and proximity sensor issues).

2.10.27 was good for first few days but now giving me frequent reboots on its own and camera/gallery app crashing /restarting the phone. Also, battery life is lesser than before.

Any solutions?
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
The only think i found on the GB version, is only the battery life that is not really good for me, and the fact that i do not really succed to have a correcte % of my defy + battery.

The jb rom with custom kernel was really great for that.

That was the only point that i see. For the rest, all is 100% ok for me. no reboot, no bug etc.

It's been really long since I used this gb rom... From what I remember it was deep sleep problems.

[Defy Android Development] Hider141:
I think the deep sleep problems could've been repaired with a wipe cache/wipe dalvik cache. At least that was the solution for me to repair the deep sleep problems every 2-3 weeks.

Hey everyone,

a small question: Is there any Defy+ ROM with working Wi-Fi? Or do I have to flash a custom kernel or some app to make Wi-Fi work?...
[Defy Android Development] m_zet:
Noone reported any problem with WIFI - it works in any Wajks ROM for DEFY (+).
[Defy Android Development] Deformat:
On my Defy+ Wi-Fi doesn't work on as well on CM10, CM9 and CM7...

Was thinking that there might've been something done in this ROM to help out with the Wi-Fi issues I've got.
[Defy Android Development] Burn02:
Wifi is a big question. That depend of your hardware network.

I do not have any problem with all the rom i test. I have a netgear DG834G at home, and i never have any problem to connect on it. Somes got problem to connect with livebox or other box, and find that the solution was to disable the wifi n and limit to G.

But that depend of the hardware.

Nice job on 2.10.27

Wajk,

I upgraded to 2.10.27 today and I have to congratulate you on what a top job you have done.

I had been on 2.4.20 for ages as it is the last version (that I noticed) that ESmod (Control Panel/Notification bar mods) worked on properly.

The new installer is looks and works great. I was nearly sad as after first boot the toggles didnt behave but i did a cache/davlik wipe when I rebooted to install fasterrock and ocenania gps fix.

Perfect. Thanks so much.

[Defy Android Development] Harry GT-S5830:
Easy, back up, wipe data/cache and dalvik-cache. Flash ROM and reboot.
[Defy Android Development] docneo99:
thanks a lot!!

no ext3 or ext4 issue? kernel reflash?
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
There could be ext3, ext4 incompatibilities i guess, because then 11.17, we didnt have ext4 format support and builds were with stock gb kernel.

Anytime you come from Quarx CM10, just do these steps for safe:

1. Go to Boot-Menu and Filesystem tools, and chose DATA and cache to EXT3

2. Wait till it finished, once done it comes back to the boot-menu

3. IMP: DO NOT wipe data/cache anything at this time, if done, it will again reset them to EXT4.

4. Just flash WIUI system and Stock kernel.

5. Wipe Dalvik cache alone

6. Reboot

If you are coming back from Quarx CM10 based ROM to any other ROM which works on Stock kernel, always follow those steps, otherwise you just end up to flash FULL-SBF...
