I updated directly from WIUI 2..2.24 Hybrid ICS to CM9 froyo kernel.

here is what I did:

went into stable recovery

Wiped data

Wiped Cache.

Installed CM9, CM7 kernel and gapps.

Wiped cache and dalvik as mentioned in the first post.

Rebooted! and win :) first time I flashed a rom without any hiccups and have been through all of them....

Faced a lot of crashing in apps because I was using WIIUI before this. So the solution is to delete the cache for the crashing apps and force stop it.

Am Loving this ROM!!!! although programs are a bit slow maybe because of partial HWA....
[Defy Android Development] Arjoma:
I would flash this sbf: http://goo.gl/FRQVg (Nordic Froyo).

After flashing it, root and install 2ndinit again, and in CWM wipe everything and just install the zip files of the ROM (CM9) and the gapps.
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Or you can use this SBF. This is U3_3.4.2_179-002_DEBLUR_CEE - the official SBF for Central and Eastern Europe. I have flashed it many times to revive my phone, so I guarantee it is safe. You will never be able to downgrade to Eclair again though. Not that I would ever go back to Eclair, but still need to warn you.
[Defy Android Development] nfin1te:
i could, but that would mean setting some stuff of the device up first - not wanting. :) sbf is much faster and easier.

Couldn't care less about not beeing able to downgrade to eclair again. :)

CM9 roms from there are correct for my defy, right?

http://defy.wdscript.fr/defy-cm9/

so, to recap:

- flash 2.2 sbf

- superoneclick root

- 2ndinit cwm

- wipe everything in cwm

- flash cm9 + gapps - NO kernel this time

This should work, right?
[Defy Android Development] Arjoma:
Right. Although I would take latest version from here: http://quarx2k.ru/cm9-nightly-defy/

And flashing the gapps would also be helpful.
[Defy Android Development] nfin1te:
thanks for the latest version.

gapps are on my 2do list ;) (see: - flash cm9 + gapps - NO kernel this time)

CM9-ICS-MR1-120305-jordan-plusquarxfordpp11kernel

This build is for 4.5.3-109-DPP11 kernel.

It fix the problem for boot problems with this kernel.

This fix will be included in the next CM7 and CM9 builds.

(it was a 2nd-init/2nd-boot binary problem)

Download:

[Defy Android Development] nfin1te:
So...this fixes my problem? Or is this a general post?

I'm sorry, i'm new to the defy.

edit: nvmd, i think i understand now :)
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
Can we have flashable zip format of 4.5.3-109-DPP11 kernel attached? we can quickly flash this kernel and test with quarx defy+ builds. walter would you please put the zip for this kernel only, like yours 4.5.2-109_DHT-22-kernel.zip.

[Defy Android Development] premaca:
that has got the problem right, will be in boot loop, i tried twice but stuck in boot loop with that sbf.

I guess that is what walter fixed and posted, so i want the working kernel zip to flash and test on cm9.
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
Yes, Walter modified quarx CM9 build where he replaced 2nd-init and 2nd-boot which versions that works for this kernel.

---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

Thanks Walter. Just tested and replacing 2nd-boot/2nd-init works with CM7-Defy+ builds as well.
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
quarxs and me did some test with this dpp11 kernel. After i told quarxs that the Milestone2 build works with this kernel. He found the problem and i replaced this files. Quarx will fix it in the repos for cm7 and cm9
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
Now I'm on cm7.2 defy + todays quarx build with Walter dht22 kernel. Want to try this kernel. So it means that if I replace 2nd boot/2ndinit directories from the above fixed build and flash the fixed sbf, will that boot?
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Just flashed this build with 4.5.3_109-DPP11 kernel without any wipe and everything's working so far. Can't wait to see the battery life on this one, as I recall having the longest battery life on MS2Ginger with this particular kernel :)
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
You need to extract the 2nd-boot and 2nd-init binaries in system\bootmenu\binary from walters modified CM9 zip file and either copy them manually (e.g. Root Explorer) to \system\bootmenu\binary on your phone and set the correct permissons - or you can replace these files in quarx's latest CM7-Defy+ zip file e.g. using 7-Zip and flash it again.

Or you wait for quarx's next build...
[Defy Android Development] hackergnome:
i am on dht22 but for me Quarx Defy+ nightly boots fine w/o any changes...

1403 build...
[Defy Android Development] twa_priv:
4.5.2-109_DHT-22 always worked fine but 4.5.3-109 did not until walter changed these binaries.
[Defy Android Development] Fotogravin:
I don't see any 1403 build for CM9, only CM7?
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
Yep. That's right. Now I'm running cm7.2 defy + with 4.5.3-109, successfully booted after replacing those binary files. I have defy mb525 red lens, was on ms2 ginger with the same kernel and get awesome battery life.I'm happy that Walter did great job in making this kernel compatible for GB builds of cm7.2 and cm9.
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Yes - CM7.2 with the given build date
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
And here is the answer... 8 hours and only 3% drop! Pure awesomeness! :-D
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:

[Defy Android Development] GodSlayer:
I cannot find the 4.5.3_109-DPP11 kernel itself... Does anyone have it?

http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=794187&d=1322184355

If you just flash without changing 2nd-boot/2nd-init files in system/bootmenu/binary from walters CM9 build zip, you will be in boot loop. Walter said there were binary problems and fixed.

I just downloaded walters cm9 zip and took 2nd-boot/2nd-init files and replaced in existing ROM. there after i flashed above fixed-sbf-zip via CWM, it booted flawlessly. (Alternatively I just attached those files for easy download, just put them in system/bootmenu/binary)

I m running CM72 with above fixed-sbf and battery life is very good. Other user Auris and twa_priv has tested on CM9.

Well, will we? Do you actually really know? :confused:
[Defy Android Development] abhishek009:
do i really know ?? no .. just saw the commits and our devs hard work .. so is hoping to see one tonight ,...
[Defy Android Development] Niteeshkanungo:
No i guess, because Quarx2k is working on CM7.2 for both Defy and Defy Plus.. He uploaded Nightly's today(16-03) as we can see @http://quarx2k.ru/.. and Eppy's commit are far from my understanding. :).. Both of them want to finish for stable 7.2 before getting hand's over ICS.
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
You and me think the same, buddy.

Still, every day I hope :D CM9 is what I want my phone to be. :cool:
[Defy Android Development] tlongren:
Quarx2k had commits in his ICS branch on Github today. Yesterday it saw a bunch of pulls from Epsylon3's branch too, and a cleanup.

But I would agree that they'd probably like to get 7.2 mostly finished up before putting more time into CM9.
[Defy Android Development] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
There is a CM7.2 build with today's date on Quarx's website.

[Defy Android Development] fiskenigaten:
would love to use this as my daily ROM, but my defy+ gets really hot after only a bit of "light usage" so i'm back on stock at the moment.

Yes, I tried undervolting, underclocking, putting it in the fridge, etc. But I've only used 4.5.1-134-DFP-132 - O2-Germany full Blur as base. Could it be the kernel witch is giving me these problems?

EDIT: sorry, wrong thread! I've been using quarx's builds! :o
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
Have you done all the wipes when installing? Really have no idea what could be causing that, as it works wonderfully on my defy+. I've used the 3rd March build by Quarx, then the 8th March build with hwa again by Quarx, on Froyo, and now I'm gonna try Epsylon's today build, again on Froyo. Never had overheating problems, but I have undervolted the settings, as they have been higher than I usually use.

What I used as a base on Gingerbread was 4.5.1-134_DFP-125. (full sbf: DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-125_BLUR_SIGN_SIGNED_USADEFYEMARAB1B8RTGB005.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRRTGB_P022_A022_M002_HWp3_WIG148094_Service1FF.sbf ) It's 2.3.5.
[Defy Android Development] shawnshine:
Really, really strange, but after installing the latest ROM by Epsy (17th), installing the CM7 kernel, flashing gapps, and wiping cache and dalvik, it boots up just fine and goes into Setup Wizard, but when I would Touch the Android to begin, it would force quit. Repeatedly. Despite multiple cache/dalvik wipes. SO to anyone who might have experienced this situation like I did, a simple trick is the "four corners" trick to bypass the Setup Wizard.

In order, use your finger to press the top-left corner, top-right corner, bottom-right corner, and finally the bottom-left corner of the screen. Don't tap on the status bar - just the black background surrounding the Android logo. You will instantly be taken to your homescreen. Cheers!
[Defy Android Development] 57op:
17th March build still hasn't app2sd feature.

Optimus 2X's build has got this since 9th March; is there any chance for us to get it too?

It also has data limit feature.

I'm not claiming this features, i'm just wondering if they could be "merged" in defy's builds too.

hey anyone knows why the 3/17 build of Epys isnt rooted??

also the wifi toggles doesnt work properly, wifi turns off then on again

panoramic camera is working though

its faster as well
[Defy Android Development] abhishek009:
may be because cyanogen has decided to give a option for the users to choose if he/she wants to root the rom and they wont provide rooted roms anymore
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
no, its not that, its just a new security (dev) setting to toggle root mode access... to prevent some apps to break the system... Its like SuperUser, but for adb too, and/or all apps...

But it should be allowed by default
[Defy Android Development] abhishek009:
eppy , hwa works pretty good on the ported rom codename .. i used chrome and it was slow but works .. so could that be useful in getting a hwa working cm9 rom for defy too..
[Defy Android Development] chachoi:
Hi Eppy thanks for the reply, so I need to root this by myself or is there an option somewhere here to allow that?

who hates rooted phones? Most of us don't :p

and Also eppy, I have been switching between your cm9 and quarx whenever who has the latest and I noticed that the wifi toggle in your build is kinda broken? like I would turn it off then it would turn on by itself, maybe you can fix this if you have time. Quarx's rom never does this. Im using your 3/17 build by the way
[Defy Android Development] binodnepal:
in developer option there is root access option.
[Defy Android Development] Epsylon3:
yep I see the Wi-Fi indicator bug.. now
[Defy Android Development] overclockthesun:
Since we are o wifi issues, I have one. Now that I am on CM9 Eppy, Xlink and Wifi File Transfer Pro both do not work. MY defy is invisible in the network as far as these two softwares go.

Also, games no longer update via wifi. However, internet works perfectly
[Defy Android Development] chachoi:
that's strange, I can't find it here, is it because I flash this on a VFS and not on the main phone?
[Defy Android Development] F_R_I_T_Z:
A question...

I flash this rom in mine defy. I'm using Claro Brazil Operator.

Just after flash the ROM. ( after all possible wipes and coming from Operator rom).

Just after flahs the RAM. Everything works fine. I can call and receive calls.

but after reboot the fone. Calls stop to work. All time i try. After put the number i receive, finished call.

I tryed to change the basebands versions inside the rom to mine operator. but same thing.

Another question.

Inside "ABOUT the FONE" in Baseband version. there is the need of show the same BASEBAND version I changed inside the Advanced menu?

thanks in advance.
[Defy Android Development] djbarreto:
Awesome!!! Thanks so much!!!:D
[Defy Android Development] Mr.Oug:
Can I use it on defy plus...? I have no idea about this sorry
[Defy Android Development] djc151084:
You can use the builds that are made for the defy+ , quarx currently has a defy +

[Defy Android Development] stevellion:
I'm using the 3/17 build daily and so far it's great.

One issue I had was with Wi-Fi - not waking up properly after a sleep. I was continually toggling Wi-Fi Off/On to get it connected again.

I have now set the "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" and since then it's been working brilliantly.

Wish I'd known about the Disable Root option - I've manually unrooted my device with SuperOneClick, so I can access corporate e-mail with my MDM service - so when I upgrade to the next rom, I'll test it and report back.

Reading the current posts - should I skip the 3/19 build and wait for the next?
[Defy Android Development] dskrilz:
@Epsy+Quarx - as far as the HWA goes, maybe you could look at the port of Codename Android in the dev section. Chrome seems to work, rendering and all, at least on the first try. Perhaps you could compare the ROMs to help find a solution.
[Defy Android Development] Cocolopes:
Chrome its not working for me...black screen...the rom its fast but I have a lot of soft reboots and the camcoder its not working well...

The only thing I think its awewsome...its the tweeks...

At last!!! my phone its complete again!!! in your face moto!!
[Defy Android Development] morteza-25:
There is no screen off CRT animation in 03/19,why??:-/
[Defy Android Development] naenee:
Those tweaks, are they not just 'ICS Reloaded', which is usable on the CM9 nightlies too?
[Defy Android Development] bds bamrah:
camcorder works but occasionaly doesnt..vith options and flash

also panoramo not working on 19/03
[Defy Android Development] swapnil360:
HWA is comparatively better than any CM9 build. And yes Chrome worked for the first time and then, it was showing a black screen. If our devs look into it, CM9 can get working HWA.

No. They're quite different. Look at this for an example : http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23799733

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] kanna91:
If u r a defy+ user just flash a quarx defy+ build..need not flash any kernel..incase u want to try froyo build, u need to flash froyo kernel before flashing the ROM.

If u have a red lens defy..just flash froyo builds without flashing any kernel..u need to flash GB kernel incase u want to use the GB builds (Not applicable to Green lens defy) .. :)

Anybody knows anything about new Quarx version?

or maybe somebody knows on what is working Quarx ?:)

Thanks, sorry for mistakes :)

- full hwa

- chrome fix

- porting to 4.0.4

- panorama

- wvga rec
[Defy Android Development] Passa91:
Nah, I think it's just that both devs are working on other things. Quarx has been touching up CM7.2. Patience, the updates shall come. :)

Hey you sigg ysays you are on V6. Which settings are you using?
[Defy Android Development] imachine:
Hi, I just did the same and I havent noticed a vast improvement in battery, but keyboard typing feels much more responsive with ondemand scheduler than on cm9 kernel, ymmv.

Maybe we can kang some 3d accel in there too? The kernel should support hwa, perhaps if one took the missing libs and bins from the codename release, we'd get hwa with gb kernel?

I have some linux experience so if someone was to draw the schematics behind hwa on defy, id be happy to get deeper into kanging the above.

[Defy Android Development] [] AL []:
Phew!! ...I was just about to post about the lost of root access and was stressing out about that a little.

OK, well I'm just relaying info here as a warning, but for those using the multiboot:

1- Data Wipe deletes the android_secure folder

---> so some apps on your main boot might stop working. So it's safer to back it up.

But I just wiped cache and Dalvik cache before install and no biggie except the recovery has a tendency to give black screens on "go back" selections

--> just long press the power button and menu's back.

2- Data-Backup of virtual system not possible yet...
