nope the Defy has a PowerVR530 and the Desire Z has a adreno205. The adreno 205 is compareable with the PowerVR540.

Also i own a Xperia Play (also adreno 205) and I had a Defy and i can thay that the Xperia Play is a lot quicker.

So... what is happen with the project?

If Sense 3.0 of Sensation is too "big", you can port the Sense 3.0 of Desire S (which is a Single-Core device)

I wait a response.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fersago:
If the developers can't port Sense 3.0 ROM, I don't mind, but can cook (or modify THIS ONE) a better Sense 2.0 ROM.

A lot of thanks to the developers! I hope that this project continue and we can enjoy a good sense rom!

GREAT IDEA, making a thread asking for help! by the way, since the DefyFroyoSense started, more than a year has passed by, without any (or just a little) help from devs. Seems that the best ones are involved with CM9 (witch is really appreciated and necessary to keep the device updated) and just left this project away. This is a good way to ask for their help! Congratulations.

512M right on the dot.

This means that in theory, Fenny and I have flashable stock and stock rooted images now. We'll know in a few hours.

If I get the right deal, I'll flash from my laptop, dump kernel, and upload the kernel from Panera. :P

OK, guys, both of you:

When flashing something, you really need to learn the first post of the thread for whatever you are flashing IN ITS ENTIRETY.

Fortunately the side effects of being too lazy to read are minor in this case, but in some cases, not reading could brick your device.

There was an excuse for this two weeks ago when the instructions were wrong, but that post has been fixed for nearly two weeks at this point.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Adelaide.:
As much as I hate to be another one of these people, I buggered this up somehow.

I was rooted with stock using codeworkx kernel and super one click. I decided I wanted to change the system font and found instructions to do it via CWM so I downloaded ROM manager. I DID NOT install CWM from the ROM manager, I remembered there was an issue, so I read through this thread, uninstalled ROM manager and flashed the kernel in the OP without any problems.

I re-downloaded ROM manager, and wanted to make sure I had the newest version of CWM, so using ROM manager I attempted to flash CWM, which this post said was ok to do.

I get a download error, and when I try and boot into CWM recovery I get the little android guy and the triangle with the exclamation point. If I press the volume keys I can see the CWM menu and I get the following error:

"CWM-based recovery v5.0.2.3

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed

installation aborted."

For what it is worth ROM manager showed me having v5.0.2.6 installed.

I uninstalled ROM manager and reflashed the kernel in the OP again and did not install ROM manager and I'm still getting the same problem.

I searched for other people who had this problem, but all I found were a bunch of posts about this problem on other phones or who had ended up here by using ROM manager to do the original flash, and I don't want to screw anything up by following directions for a different phone. Thanks guys.

UPDATE: I flashed to stock, reflashed to CWM, used the ROM manager shortcut to go into CWM recovery and it was still screwey. So I flashed stock, flashed CWM and used the hardware buttons and now it works. Apparently this is what I get for being lazy. It works fine as long as I don't use ROM manager to enter CWM recovery.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] rexready:
@Adelaide.

I have the exact same error after rooting my SGS2 for the first time this morning.

"CWM-based recovery v5.0.2.3

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

Verifying update package...

E: failed to verify whole-file signature

E: signature verification failed

installation aborted."

For what it is worth ROM manager showed me having v5.0.2.6 installed.

As long as I go though the recovery via the hardware button's and not the CWM app everything appears to work ok.

For some reason using the CWM app update to 5.0.2.6 doesn't actually update...??...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
This is why people keep saying all over not to use ROM Manager.

Use whatever is built into the kernel, not whatever ROM Manager tries to use. As an example, on the Infuse, ROM Manager would take people into a crippled recovery that would softbrick you unless you were using it ONLY to flash a CWM-enabled kernel.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] starryeyez:
Okay, Can I use this method if I'm already Rooted?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Adelaide.:
Except earlier in this same thread someone said it was OK to use ROM manager to update CWM, is this not applicable to the GS2?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Bxsteez:
I still can't access to my sdcard in the cwm but its not a big deal. I do have a second question though. Does the method to get rid of yellow triangle on the splash screen posted in the GS2 International forum work on the att?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I don't know what method that is, since you were too lazy to link to it and too lazy to read the FAQ for our device to see if that method is the same.

Yes, getting rid of the ! screen is covered in the FAQ in the General section.

Question: I used this kernel to root\unlock stock ROM. I got the bright idea to try Entropy's daily kernel, and flashed it, and ever since doing so my battery life has been blowing monkey chunks and I long to go back to Codeworx's great kernel that gave me such great battery life.

Without doing a whole restore, is there a simple way to re-flash this kernel? I don't see a CWM flashable kernel, so any advice would be greatly appreciated, and many thanks for Codeworx not making a kernel that sucks battery balls, haha. :-)

Did you have the same battery issue? I flashed it before getting on a flight yesterday and even in airplane mode it was down to 25% after 8 hours of flying on Entropy's daily 10-20.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
At first, my battery life was better. Recently, I've experienced excessive drain. I'm troubleshooting so I don't quite know the cause. If I reach a dead end, then I'll have to come back to this kernel as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
At least in theory, my kernel should provide improved battery performance - cpuidle fixed, fuel_alerted wakelock fixed.

Can't help you debug without data collection, as I cannot reproduce any drain problems except for the infamous "network traffic causes high AOS" issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] bella92108:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Adelaide.:
Try checking the save to external sd option in rom manager settings. I haven't actually tested this myself, but the option is there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Adelaide.:
So the setting in rom manager isn't enabled?

Edit: I'm an idiot, and totally forgot I could test it myself. Backing up from the CWM menu does not save the back up to the external sd. Attempting the back up from rom manager causes an error.

So I've done the odin thing and installed cwm that way, I then rooted, then installed rom manager and flashed cwm that way for some reason.

I was absolutely unable to get into cwm through any combo of volume up/down/power/home button. I was able when I rebooted into recovery through rom manager though. But it started with an exclamation point inside a triangle. It would disappear and show me cwm when I pressed the power button.

Then it would say "failed to verify while-file signature", but I could still make backups. Tried to install CM7, gave me the same "failed to verify while-file signature".

Now I'm at a loss. I deleted my cwm folder on my sdcard and redid the Odin steps and cwm from this thread. I uninstalled rom manager. I still can't get into recovery. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jonnyredcorn:
ROM manager doesn't work with or phones. You must flash a custom kernel w/ CWM. I suggest entropy dd 12/8(have not tested 1/2). You must flash and make backups through CWM recovery.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
The Odin to stock thread may have the stock kernel available for download. Otherwise, look at LilChris's thread (I think it's stickied in General) on removing the yellow triangle with mobile odin (he has the stock kernel in the OP).

But, idk why you'd want to do the update. A number of people report having the infamous wifi battery drain, and others have stated that battery life is generally not as good as KH7 (shipped stock). While not everyone reports issues, some do, and you may save yourself some time by just avoiding the update. It doesn't bring any significant advantages, and is merely a re-base (to an inferior base, in my opinion).

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Simba501:
Any custom kernel will have recovery. For example, one of Entropy's kernels in the attachments is in tar format. Tar format for Siyah kernel is here. Siyah uses touch recovery, so if you prefer the standard cwm, grab Entropy's. From there, you can obviously load what you want.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] daverup:
Probably because we don't "flash" CWM separately. It is included with the custom kernels on the i777, and on the custom roms with kernels.

If you flash a custom kernel from this forum, you will have CWM.
