Any fix to?

Enhance Wifi Tether stability
[Defy Android Development] :
I installed gb kernel, then plus version then gapps, then kernel again and then battery fix for red lense

The ROM is perfect, but when I try to acticate wifi it stays "activating" for ever and doesn't show up any wifi

What is the problem? Should I install the Froyo one for the Red Lense Defy? Will I get lower quality image in pictures and video rec?

any solution ?
[Defy Android Development] przemhb:
Wi-Fi Tether does not work at all for me (using 16-11 and previous builds on my green lens Defy). It creates access point, which isn't seen by other devices.

It's the major unfixed issue of the CM9.1, and the reason I have to sometimes switch to stock Froyo.

It's a pitty the issue stays unfixed, but I guess CM10 is more interesting for developers, than finishing an almost stable, but older system.

As to the other drawbacks of CM9.1, which I use on a daily basis for a few months - there is only one - video playback is clearly inferior to stock ROM. Using stock ROM videos were played back smoothly and with dithering. Using CM9.1 you cannot smoothly playback 720p videos. SD videos playback is ok, but a bit laggy. Dithering is turned off by default and must be manually turned on.

moving from CM7 Nightly to this ROM.

Do I have to manually downgrade the Kernel to 2.3.4 ? My current Kernel is 2.6.9 (from Cm7)

When moving from Cm7 to ICS in htc devices all I needed to do was install zip from sd, wipe data\cache, install gapps, and done.

Is this here any different ?

[Defy Android Development] sa3e1:
There was no update on this rom for a long time, so I would recommend to use Quarx 's CM10.1 instead. Using last nightly (09.04.) since its release, and it is pretty good for daily use. Data works fine for me, only occurred once, that it took 3 tries to connect. I don't think it's a fast as CM7,but UI and features make it better!

but now after coming to zero my phone is not charging....

i m clueless now ???? :rolleyes:

yea.. the one which i got with phone originally

i even tried to charge it through my pc but no success...
[Defy Android Development] :
there is a small way to fix it

connect it to wall charger, it will do bootloop (blue red then moto logo)

in blue led press vol. down (recovery) and wait around 15min with the wall charger connected..

then take away the charger and reboot, it will boot up with 0% or 1% so connect it fast to the wall charger again once it booted

let me know if it worked for you :)
[Defy Android Development] karinkato:
it worked.... a hell yea.... thank u so very much.... :good:

did this happen in cm9.1? or in msginger5.0? do they share same kernels?

[Defy Android Development] :
do me a favor! If some day you try out msginger 5.0 tell me what happens when you try to charge your phone while its switched off,, Im glad I was able to help you, this will happen to you always in this rom so maybe consider changing rom ^^
[Defy Android Development] vinirockman:
(:

This latest nightly is WAY better than other that I've used so far...
[Defy Android Development] droid_<3er:
I think the issue with charging comes from the 2nd-boot mechanism itself. Because it boots on top of the existing kernel, it has to wait until it has passed the bootmenu stage. Normally, if you do not power on, the phone goes directly into ChargeOnly mode immediately after kernel boot.

However, if there's no battery, then it is unable to get past the full booting stage, henceforth unable to go into ChargeOnly mode. You can always try first leaving it in bootmenu or recovery and charging it from there and then when the battery is sufficient go do what you normally do, but I wouldn't recommend recovery because it auto-reboots after a while.
[Defy Android Development] Pekempy:
Using Walter79 latest CM9.1 build, I'm unable to unsimlock. I've tried flashing the baseband and the ICS unlock zip, but it still asked for the unlock pin.

Has anyone else had this problem, or found a solution? Thanks

Update: using the code below in terminal it works; however I need to do it every time I boot. Any way around this?

*aeroplane mode on*

su
bp_ptc

*aeroplane mode off*

UPDATE

Changed boot in boot menu to 2nd init instead of 2nd boot, added the following lines to /system/etc/init.local.rc and it works :)

service bp-ptc /system/bin/bp_ptc

Hi all,

I've a Defy+ (mb526). I've rooted that with Framaroot and the rom stock is 2.3.6 ( build number : 4.5.1-134_DFP-231 ). Now I've to ask some questions :

- Can I flash this rom over Gingerbread ?

- Must I use the multiboot ?

Thanks for any reply.

Cheers,

[Defy Android Development] cyrusct82:
1. Yes you can.

2. No you don't have to use multiboot.

- I want to use multiboot. I've installed and it seems to work. How can I install this rom in the 2nd-boot ?

Cheers,

[Defy Android Development] Hasuris:
And to me JB was slooooooowwwwww.... cm7 is A LOT faster. Apps like whatsapp open almost instantly (on JB you have to wait quite a few seconds). I had an incident on CM10 were I had to make a call RIGHT NOW, I tried to open the call-app but nothing happend. I had to kill the process and try again, by that time, it was too late. It was a dealbreaker for me.

Many apps don't work on 2.3.x anymore. CM9 is not as fast as CM7 but still faster than CM10 and all apps are working again :) I can live with some minor features missing.
[Defy Android Development] UncleDan:
Which is the most "stable" release from walter79 and is there any mirror other than his skydrive? Thanks.
[Defy Android Development] disadjusted:
try newer builds. those perform very well, when phone app is cached it also opens immediately, otherwise it takes perhaps 1 sec. greenify helps a lot to prevent other apps from slowing down your phone... what is the main culprit, because ICS/JB needs more RAM than GB... where this also can happen with lots of apps open.

when you don't need BT i recommend cm10.1, the latest build from 07-09 is blazing fast! not comparable with older builds from 2012... that indeed have been kind of slow in certain situations...
[Defy Android Development] Hasuris:
The last build I used was CM10 3.07.2013. I tried them all, doesn't really make a difference. I greenify the s*** out of my phone, always. But you can't do anything about the OS that is slowing down the phone. The newer the androidversion is, the more weight it puts on the hardware. Makes sense when you take the rapid development of the androidphones into account. We have quadcorephones now with 2gb ram, and the current OS is build with these phones in mind. Don't now about CM10.2 but I red it needs even more ram than previous CMs, so I really don't see, how this could be any better. I don't care how "snappy" I can scroll between homescrees. My phone has to be fast at opening apps. The more memory there is to do that, the better.
[Defy Android Development] Shubhamqweasd:
actually more ram doesn't mean faster UI or faster opening apps ..

the OS has to be optimized for the hardware ..

several phones with just 512MB ram have super smooth JB running ,some even has official support ...

the thing is , 4.x.x roms are not optimized for OMAP3 hardware because , there is no kernel 3.x working on it , it takes many components like hwcomposer ,ION etc.. to make it work good..
[Defy Android Development] campo8558:
Ok guys, a big problem. I try to flash the rom but anything works. I follow this guide. So i flashed before the nightly from http://defy.wdscript.fr/defyplus-cm9/ then the kernel ( CM9-ICS-MR0-111207-jordan-KERNEL-2.3.4-Quarx.zip ) and the I flashed again the CM9 nightly and the gapps. But the phone gave me a bootloader error and it stops. what can I do ?

Ok, I reflashed the sbf file with RSD. Everything ok now. So, where I went wrong ?
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
"...from Froyo stock" says the guide. Were you on Froyo stock?

Anyway, what build have you tried flashing? Walter79'2 build is recommended. It uses the 2ndBoot kernel that is contained within the ROM and is therefore the easiest to flash. You just need that build and the correct gapps zip. No additional fixes (kernels etc) needed.

If you read the last page, though, you would know that there's an update that fixes some important bugs coming from him soon, so maybe you should wait for that ;)
[Defy Android Development] campo8558:
No I'm on Gingerbread, but I asked ( here ). Where is Walter792 build ? I flashed the last nightly, taken from here . I need a stable ROM, because the phone isn't mine, but it's a gift for my girlfriend.
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
You can find his build in his SkyDrive ( https://skydrive.live.com/?cid=b688...B688C895D58E70D4!266&authkey=!AILWEgk88UP71_s )

There's a bug currently that if the battery goes down to 0% you can't charge it, it won't boot. But he said that's fixed and that he's working on a new build currently.

Not my business, but have you considered some of the MIUI GB ROM's? Although my girl doesn't like MIUI one bit... But that's irrelevant, I guess.

I can't help you more on the CM9 issue, since I'm not using it (and I haven't been for the past year now, ever since CM10 showed up), so I don't really remember which build is what, but as I said, I know walter's is 2ndBoot and I know that people really like it, at least from the comments :)

If you've got questions on non-CM9 stuff, feel free to pm me, I guess :silly:
[Defy Android Development] campo8558:
MIUI, I've never used. I'll try. if it were up to me, I don't change anything, but the phone with the ROM stock has some problem. it has random reboot when mobile data is enabled, and it's totally unusable. So a new ROM it's the only way to fix the problem...I hope.

Cheers,

Stefano.
[Defy Android Development] K3n H1mur4:
Best option would be MIUI GB (Pikachu Edition might be a good one) or MS2Ginger, considering it's for a person without CFW knowledge. I flashed MS2Ginger on a friend's girlfriend phone a couple months ago (was on stock froyo) and she haven't complained since, actually said it was great when I asked. For stability and stuff, GB-based ROMs are the best, though I haven't had any issues with my Defy in CM9 (was on 10.1 for over a year, but reverted back to CM9, after trying several ROMs, since I got a new phone and my Defy turned into a secondary phone). I'd keep an eye for the update [MENTION=4442286]niksy+[/MENTION] said, though, since more and more apps on Play Store are requiring 4.0+ now, and 4.3 is already out there (lots of apps usually support about 3-4 Android versions older than the latest one, because they need the most recent API version they can while keeping compatibility with most phones - 4.0+ represents over 60% of Android now, while Gingerbread and earlier versions stand up for the rest of these, GB with over 30%)
[Defy Android Development] Hasuris:
[MENTION=382340]walter79[/MENTION] can increase the volume steps from 15 to 30 or more? It's the only complaint I have with this rom. I can't set the volume for the headphones right, it's either too high or too low. I tried to adjust the steps myself in the framework.jar but so far no luck.

Edit: nevermind, got it working. Now the rom is perfect!
