[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mr.Brosnan:
I've spent about an hour now Googling how I might accomplish using my android as an USB device. Came across the mistake again of buying a dell and am dealing with drivers 2 years out of date and dell refusing to do anything about it. So the sound on the laptop is horrible and the audio jacks don't actually output sound. Great for advertising "SRS" on a laptop which has 2 year old sound drivers. So I'm looking for a USB solution through my android so that I can plug up some headphones and listen to the computer through the phone. Not just music either. Games, web browsers, and the likes as well.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Yup... The best you might be able to do is DLNA via Wi-Fi - not straight USB audio from the host PC.

And I bet if you do some searching you can find improved drivers for your Dell.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mr.Brosnan:
Already thought of the external sound card. I've also spent hours searching for work arounds for the dell drivers, only option is Linux but no wireless drivers on fedora, no graphics drivers on Ubuntu and I've never had luck with debian. So at this point investing any more money into the laptop is a waste when I could be saving to get a new one. So I've looked into dlna, not a perfect fix. Its a small solution to part of the problem.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Which Dell is this?

I'm really surprised at no graphics drivers in Ubuntu, unless you've got one of those oddball Intel Atom Z500-series netbooks.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mr.Brosnan:
Actually have two laptops which have that issue with Ubuntu. The first is the Dell Xps studio 1737 with the Intel 4500mhd and the other problematic one is the dell 14r with an Intel HD. The first I've never had the driver issues in Windows cause you can just download drivers from Intel. But on Ubuntu they both run off of a driver designed for the Intel GMA 945 so no pixel shader 1.1,2.0,3.0 and not fully dx9 compatible due to the driver not allowing hw T&L support. So performance is worse than the 2yr old drivers provided by Dell. That and there's also the issue of the screen always not working (cue current class action lawsuit against dell for designing computers with screens which were made to break)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Which version of Ubuntu? I know around 10.x or 9.x (can't remember exactly which) Ubuntu was in the middle of a major Intel driver architecture overhaul and the Intel driver performance SUCKED for 2-3 releases.

Newer versions (like 11.04) have MUCH better Intel driver support.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mr.Brosnan:
Orly? I have been using natty narwhale for a short bit and never really looked into that on my x4500mhd machine. Unfortunately however I've been using 11.04 on the HD with no luck. I think its maybe with an exclusive dell part though because performance is worse on the HD than the x4500 which makes no sense if its the dame driver.

Been trying to as well mount the audio using a Linux terminal. No luck.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Weird. I do recall that Sandy Bridge graphics had some known issues that were going to require another driver rearchitecture, likely resulting in people being hosed until 11.10 was released.

And I just realized from reading above - an XPS with Intel integrated graphics? Are they kidding? That's clear evidence that the XPS branding no longer means ANYTHING. It used to be the "Gaming" line, but no gaming-oriented machine has Intel integrated graphics. :(
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Mr.Brosnan:
It plays games decently. It was bought 4yrs ago I believe. The option was that or an nvidia graphics set but my grandmother was looking for cheap. But it does decently well. I usually only play mount and blade and europa universalis. Which is probably now a symptom of having the graphics set LOL.

Lawlz I mounted the audio from Linux on my computer to my phone. Problem is, sound never worked for my Linux on my android so I'm actually just assuming it would work if my Linux sound worked.
[Motorola Droid X2] booked:
I installed a script onto the atrix rom that I was running and apparently the 2 did not play well together. After I installed the script with script manager and rebooted the phone would not get past the motorola boot screen. I proceeded to download the GB SBF and try to sbf back to original. during the course of this the sbf failed and i had to download a different copy. the phone was still in RSD Lite mode and I didnt know how to get out of it so I figured i'd just remove the battery. I know, not the best thing to do, but I did it.

now the phone will not even turn on when the power button is pushed. I have it plugged to a wall charger right now to see if the battery is dead. but it just sits at the motorola screen so I have to wait to see if the battery will charge and let me get back to rsd lite.

Any Idea what pulling the battery when the screen said RSD Lite caused to go wrong?
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
My phone did that when the battery completely died. Let it sit for a bit then pull the battery. Plug it into the wall without the battery and see what happens. Hopefully you boot into recovery.
[Motorola Droid X2] homephysician:
i did the same thing. i am downloading sbf ginger bread now. if you pull the battery and plug into ac charger it should bring back rsd mode. per mistawolfes instructions. it did for me. :)
[Motorola Droid X2] qudwis:
i've done that with droid x before and got code corrupt in the bootloader..

can't sbf no more.. i had to use the assurion inssurance and got a new phone..

might be differ for the x2..
[Motorola Droid X2] booked:
Removed the battery, plugged it into the ac charger and it still bootloops. Any other ideas? I may have to just call Asurion in the morning and get another one on the way.
[Motorola Droid X2] homephysician:
if its bootlooping you should be able to pull batt and get into recovery.
[Motorola Droid X2] booked:
it wont get into recovery. like it said it wouldnt get past the motorola boot screen. I did get into RSD lite mode again. I plugged the phone into the charger with the battery in so it would charge. before the screen automatically comes on i held down the volume key and the power button and it went into fastboot.

it also says that the battery is low, so that may be my whole problem.
[Motorola Droid X2] mistawolfe:
I bet that is your problem. Let it sit plugged in for an hour, then try everything again.
[Motorola Droid X2] booked:
just playing the waiting game right now. i feel lost without my phone.

thanks for the help everyone.
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
I had a similar issue and the battery will not charge when in that state. I took a $30 hit and bought a battery at VZW store... Went home, put in new battery, SBF'ed and was good to go.... If my dog hadnt chewed up the box while I wasnt looking, I would have taken the battery back.... But at least now I have a spare battery and anytime I am going to flash or try anything a little squirrelly I just charge one battery all the way, take it out and make sure I have atleast 50% on the one in the phone.... It gives me a kinda warm, fuzzy, sense of security....
[Motorola Droid X2] EvilTim:
They DO sell external battery chargers for this battery type. You can get one of those at walmart or grab a new battery like dag
[Motorola Droid X2] DAG425:
I did actually try a friends generic/fit all external battery charger and it really didnt work to well and thats why I bought the extra battery... Now I am looking at getting a dock that has a external battery charger....

[Motorola Droid X2] mastafunk:
When it sits and spins @ the eye, pull the batt.. then hold vol down+pwr to start it back up , let go when ya see fastboot, press vdown till ya see recovery, press both v+v- when ya see the adroid press v+v- again. Do a factory reset. Then reboot youll be fine.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mingolianbeef:
Hit your hardware menu button,and (when using LP) go to preferences, then go to theme settings, then hit icon settings and change to normal icons! (Or GB icons)

Go to (hardware key) menu; preferences; dock settings. Check for options accordingly

While i like Verizon more than t mobile coming from the nexus to a charge must be hard to get used to. I'm not saying the charge is a bad phone at all but it damn sure isn't a nexus.

That being said...

A. Wrong forum

B. Don't worry. We should have cm7/omfgb in the coming month or so(hopefully)

C. Go with humblecomb or the new ep1w humble. Haven't tested it yet but i have loved all 3 or 4 humble roms i have tried. Currently running the newest humblecomb and it is smooth, has great battery, and looks real purty.

Thanks very much!!! As far as coming from a Nexus, the only thing that is bothering me is F'ing TW!!!!
[Verizon Droid Charge] d-loko:
Basically the current choices you have for the latest GB (EP1W-based) ROMs are:

1) TW4 Themed EP1W

2) Humble 3.1 Gingerbread

3) GummyCharged GBE 2.0RC1.5

4) DarkCharge TQ

in no particular order. They each have their positives/negatives. Do the research and keep in mind YMMV..

You can find the latest stock GB here
[Verizon Droid Charge] WilliamKingX17:
If you are wanting a feel like your Nexus S then you definitely want to go with GummyCharged GBE 2.0 RC1.3. It has little issues(actually none that I have seen since flashing it) and is blazing fast. It is stock Android Gingerbread with a few touches of TW in certain apps. Give it a try, you'll like it.

[Defy General] maxiordoqui:
Hi Developers! Well, finally i could post a thread on XDA.. I tried many times, and also tried to reply into CM7 threads and other without success.. I'm From Argentina, Latin America, and i just about to give up .. I CAN'T FIND a working SFB of Stock Clean Froyo without Motoblur! I have tried CEE, NORDIC, SEA 15, ORANGE WITH NO SUCCES :( The problem:

Each ROM i have tried can't connect to 3G HSPA network. I added correctly the APNs, I ALSO USED 3g Fixes with Clockworkmod 2.X.X.X's recovery, also i installed the latest defy's baseband switcher, and it was just impossible, i've read a thread about /EFS backup from my operator's stock froyo, but partition couldn't be mounted and /efs doesn't appear inside of a file explorer with Root Acces with R/W Capability.

I used CM7 but didn't like it, i'm on 2.2.1 (34.4.707.MB525.Personal.en.AR) [3.4.2.107_JDNL-7] It works fine, but a bit laggy just because of the Motoblur useless software. I tried nordic and works excellent, faster and quite smooth without overclocking it. Didn't try how fast does it run at 1GHz. Some extra Data:

WORKS:2G Connection

Doesn`t work: 3G, HSPA, GPRS, EDGE.

:(

Any ideas how can i get those networks working with any froyo from others regions? Thanks you Very much for your time, y appreciate it.
[Defy General] leipengshang:
hi, have you ever tried to use some APN tools. maybe it does help.

ps: how about try a new ROM - such as MIUI,(i use 3G network， and it is in HSPA )
[Defy General] maxiordoqui:
Hi Man, thanks for your fast reply. Yes, i tried Miui and CM7 ROMs. Both worked with 3G, HSPA Networks. Thats weird, don't you think? I mean, both roms i tried were based with 179' CEe froyo (2.2.2) and i don get it.. why would miuiand cm7 works and official froyo sfb wouldn't? I don't want to use a modded roms with adapted drivers. Official drivers get more hadware capability just like the camera, wifi, wireless networks and much more. The facts is that i'm looking for official 2.2.2 factory deblurred for my phone, but seems that latin american user won't have the chance to scape from the ****ing motoblur. In the service flashes's site you'll see my sfb in 2.2.1 section' the only that works for me :(
[Defy General] Zephyrot:
That is 100% false :)

We are using Stock Kernel since we have a locked bootloader and we cant change the damn thing. Its possible to add modules to add functionality to a ROM. And we dont use any adapted drivers, its not how it works.

If you actually use CM7 you would see it has 2x or 3x the performance of any Official rom in any Phone. The difference is just insane.

And there's the case of other phones like the HTC HD2, where Android runs and performs WAY better than its official OS (Windows Mobile).

And specially in the case of the Defy, the official Rom/Kernel actually cripples the phone to crap so the phone doesn't compete directly with their high-end phones (power which you can unlock by using any of the custom roms around).
[Defy General] camalus:
If only wifi calling worked with CM. :/ stuck using stock suckssss.
[Defy General] Stenz28:
I think this is related, corrupt cz file

First post.

Had virgin Defy. Rooted it.

Installing WajkIUI 1.9.9

When I was doing step 4 I think I went to step 6 instead of 5 and borked my phone!

"4. Select Recovery/Stable Recovery. Choose "Wipe Data/Cache" option. Let finish.

"5. Choose Install zip from SD Card, select WajkIUI_multilang .zip and let it finish.

"6. select "Wipe Cache" then go to Advanced and select "Wipe Dalvik Cache". Reboot Now!

So I read more and downloaded the 2.2.1.3.4.2-107.cz from the sbf site. I unpacked with 7z and flashed with RSD lite 4.9. It did the initial 100% then failed. Tried multiple times... same result.

Re-downloaded file. Now When I unpack it says file is corrupt.

I managed to get one of the EU sbf's to flash (ND or GB?), but no 3g, ony Edge.

Used the noob how to get 3g in the USA. Followed to the letter, and borked the phone again!

Please help me get a sbf that works. Blur is ok, as I have an account (from the beginning) or Deblur is good.

Just mad that T-Mobile told my wife that this was a good phone to buy for my B-day, didn't bother to tell that it was old and wouldn't run Gingerbread and then discontinued it 2 weeks later (Aug)!

Ok, enough crying! :)

Thanks in advance!
[Defy General] maxiordoqui:
You're probably right.. And i agree, the perfomance is too superior than the stock roms, i saw it with my own eyes and i was impressed, just loved it at FIRST, but, each time i was using my phone day by day there was always something that fails.. for example, WiFi sometimes autodisconnect or signal is quite LOW in short distances to the router, bluetooth sometimes can't receive files including with software like androbex and BFT, many apps just don't work quite well, many of them forced me to close them, i tried 7.1.0 RC2, many nightlies from august, and september.. (last i tried was "cm7-110909-1641-NIGHTLY" and when i find the most stable and working rom, there appears the battery drain problem, and i said, that's enough, and unfortunatelly y had to go back to the stock froyo wich is too slow, but at least everything works like it should be.. suddenly i had an idea, look for an official stock froyo here without motoblur, and i found it, the nordic one, the cee, the sea15, tried all of them, everything works amazing till i had to set the apn settings, praying before save changes, the "H" "E" or "3g" never appeared, i was so frustrated, looked in many threads of all the web, with no succes.. Then i surrender and i went back to my operator's stock sfb.. and i'm still with it. I need the phone in work and home, and i'm still complaining about it, the last thing i tried was setting my processor's speed to 1.1GHz, it works better now, but no as good as deblurred froyos, seems that i have no options, probably i should buy a new and better phone, next time i'll think better before buying, it disapointed me, i was specting more i guess.

Don't worry, you can get your phone working back as the first day. Just flash the CEE SFB from XDA thread. It should work in your region. You can get it here:

http://www.and-developers.com/sbf:defy

Navigate the page 'till you find 2.2.2 SFB

Things to do before flashing:

-Charge your battery to 100%

-Install latest Motorola Defy USB Cable drivers

-Install RSD Lite

-Turn off your Defy, then keep pressing power button with the "-" volume key at same time

-When you see the small android, press "+" and "-" at same time

-Wipe Cache Partition/Wipe data/factory reset (stock recover) then choose reboot your system option, BEFORE CHOOSING THAT, inmediately after reboot hold power button and "+" volume key, you'll acces to the Bootloader. Now you are ready. Open the RSD Lite, besides the start button you'll see a "..." click on it and choose your SFB you previosly downloaded then click in start. If you disconnect your defy in flashing process, your defy will die and it will become useless, so be patience utill it says "PASS"

When you flashed already set up your config, finally go to settings, wirelles, movile networks, choose APN, menu key and select "Add", introduce your operator data, save it. If sou are still having problem check this out:

AWESOME! I have some experience flasing a rom... hehe!

Very thankfull for the help... I've been lurking on this site since August, looking for a faster Defy. Everyone (almost) is extremely patient and friendly with n00bs, and most posts I've read have given me information and ideas.

Thanks again. I'm at work until 2am (MST) so I'll try when I get home!

Peace Out!
[Defy General] maxiordoqui:
You are welcome man! :) If CEE doesn't work for you then try with another like the UK version, or one of thoses should work with T-Mobile.

---------- Post added at 05:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 PM ----------

The CEE Froyo, the Nordic, The sea15 and a few others don't contain Motoblur, they are deblurred from factory, so those are clean stock froyos without being touched by telephony operators. I'm from Argentina, and one of those SFB is wich i'd like to get it working in my region, but it don't, so i'm forced to have Motoblur without using it, slowing down my Phone and synchronising all the time itself in the background while it is in my pocket, luckily i have an unlimited data package from my operator, otherwise the price that i should pay at the end of the month would be terrible. I'm paying 250 pesos (Argentina) that would be about 58 Dollards, and the phone costed about 220 dollards (900 pesos argentinos)
