HI ALL, Im pretty new here. after so many tries finally i was able to install cm7.1 on my defy. but im facing some issues. before the installation i forgot to take a back up of the existing ROM so if i have to go back to the previous ROM how to do that? and also there is no network coverage after the installation. please please anybody help!!!!!! :(
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vdubgti08:
Have a vibrant myself but I'm helping a buddy get cm7 on his defy and after flashing didn't have a network signal. I looked at the cm7 install guide and it referenced a defy base band switcher app for better coverage. Had him try that and he got his data connection back. Might want to look into it or read the guide.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TJKV:
If your previous ROM was stock that came with your phone, flash the corresponding SBF file from the sticky on the Dev section to go back to stock. If it was some other custom ROM, wipe data/factory reset in CWM and flash the old ROM. Make backup of your apps using Titanium Backup if you want.

For CM7 network issues, choose the correct baseband from Defy Baseband Switcher. For India, pick anything that is 900/2100MHz...

Also, make sure you have read as many guides and First Posts on important threads as you can. Here is a collection of good threads you can read for these questions, and more that you might get later:

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeDevil:
Hello! Noob here as well.

I installed CM7.1 stable on my Defy (running 2.2.2 foryo) 2 days ago.

All went well, except that network connection is lost after a couple of minutes after boot. Sometimes it takes an hour or two but I still end up with no connection.

I've googled everything about it in the last days. I played with the Baseband Switcher and although most options in the BB Switcher work right after a reboot, it still looses the signal after a couple of minutes.

One thing I noticed, when the signal is lost, trying to set the "Airplane mode" will fail. If trying to set Airplane ON - the notification icon will not replace the signal icon and will also be unable to set Airplane OFF (since it didn't finish turning ON).

I also noticed that if I force stop the "Dialer" system app, then the Airplane notification ico shows up, but still there's no way to turn it OFF (it's disabled in the menu). After a reboot Airplane can be set OFF and everything works for another small period of time (..until baseband crashes again?).

Hope it makes some sense. I'm quite sure this is not an operator issue or hardware related, since my Defy worked just fine before CM7.1

Also, I am located in Romania, operator is Orange.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaninabu:
I have the same issue, except that it is much rarer (ranging from every other day, to even a month between such incidents). It can also be triggered sometimes when I turn off Wi-Fi and the device tries to regain mobile data connection (not sure if it matters, but I set the network mode to 2G on my phone). The battery drain is increased if this occurs without the user noticing - the phone seems to search in vain for the signal.

Using the latest SEA baseband on M1 (Singapore).
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madcyclepath:
I get this problem too. Happens every so often when I'm at work. I've always put it down to a bad signal where I work but as I always turn the wifi of before leaving home it could be down to that. If anyone has any solutions it would be great
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeDevil:
Ok, a little update on this:

At the office now, further playing with the Baseband Switcher, I ended up selecting "Italia RT 2.51.1" which has the same 900/2100 freq that my operator requires and it seems to work. Even getting 3G.

If "2.51.1" is some sort of protocol version, then all the other options I've tried were either 4.x or 3.x or even 2.21.x ..and none of them worked for more then 30 minutes.

Also, not sure if signal strength has something to do with this because I did a test, going to the basement of my office in order to loose signal, then back up and it worked - got the signal back, without reboot or anything.

Also, I would really appreciate if someone could explain in a few words what those version numbers mean (ex: "Italia RT 2.51.1"), as I know nothing about gsm bands and protocols.

UPDATE: Back home, lost signal again, after a whole day without any problems. Funny.

UPDATE 2:

So after much google searching and trying literally every option in the Baseband Switcher, I switched my SIM card with a friend's SIM and guess what.. IT WORKED! Even more, when I inserted my original SIM into the other phone after a few minutes it lost signal, too! It was a faulty SIM, that has just started to "die".

Conclusion:

- Keep playing with that Baseband Switcher until you get something that works for you.

-Make sure your SIM is working properly in other phones, otherwise ask your operator to replace it.

Thanks and hope this helps.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cknro:
ZeDevil did you try using other Basebands to see if you get better battery life ?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZeDevil:
Not really. As long as you have a working Baseband selected (with correct frequencies) I don't think it matters.

But overall CM7.1 has better battery efficiency then stock ROMs, or at least that's what I felt.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madcyclepath:
update:

Well, I had a play with the baseband switcher, realising i was on 'international'. I switched to uk t-mobile and from there it seemed to work much better. A slight blip at work today (think it's a bit of a signal black-spot though) but restarted and it seems fine again. I've also just realised it's gone 37hrs since its last charge too :)

Strangely my other problem, the backlighting on the soft-keys not working, fixed itself at the same time. dunno if these two things are linked or not?

[HTC Desire S] tady:
Hi there,

I've been at this all day. I rooted my Desire S a few months ago without issue. I can't seem to return my phone to stock. The reason I want to is I have an OTA update from Orange (France) for my Desire S. It'll bring it up to And 2.3.5 and Sense 3.0. I know I could probably find ROMs around, but I always like to take advantage of free operator updates, when I can. The update just will not install.

I've flashed the phone with hboot.img, 4EXT's image for the Desire S, ClockWorkMod, everything. Nothing has worked. I have tried lots of the guides and tutorials here, but nothing seems to return the phone to S-ON or remove the HBOOT 6.98... that it has.

Can anyone point me in the right direction here?

Thanks a million guys,

T
[HTC Desire S] foX2delta:
Flash an hboot 0.98.2000, then run an older/latest RUU, then apply update if you aren't on the latest.

It will be 10 times faster to just flash a pre rooted stock ROM or any sense 3 ROM. No point in "taking advantage" your logic there is flawed.

[Sony Tablet S] adambowie:
I really like the Sony Cradle, but there's one thing that's been bugging me since I got it.

I'd really like to use my tablet as a photo frame when it's in the cradle, and there's the Gallery app to do just that. But unless I'm missing something, there doesn't seem to be much in the way of settings.

Rather than just pulling in any photos it finds, I'd like to just display a specific folder of images (In an ideal world, it'd hook into Flickr and pull a particular set in, but that's probably asking too much).

Failing that, it'd be great if other applications - including an alternative "gallery" app - were available.

Other options should include duration between pictures, selection of transitions, how to deal with photos of different ratios, and choosing whether to pan/zoom or not.

Has anyone got any solutions?
[Sony Tablet S] wintermute000:
install quickpic (alternative gallery, fast and free, lets u define paths)

go to settings, applications, gallery

clear defaults

see if quickpic now comes up as option when u dock
[Sony Tablet S] el0heem:
Any word on how this worked? I'd like to have something like this, but can't try it until I get home.

Sent from my g2x

edit:

tried it. still only gives the same options. =\
[Sony Tablet S] adambowie:
QuickPic is indeed a much nicer program than Gallery, although it could do with some transitions.

Unfortunately, only the three "official" Sony apps come up as options to auto-start when you dock in the cradle - Clock, Gallery and Chumby.

I'm not sure what special inclusions are required for third-party apps to work like that...
[Sony Tablet S] CtrlY:
Well, quickpic needs some development

Quickpic is nice, but still, what's bugging me is:

"Can't sync Picasa or Facebook or other web albums!"

An app where you could choose whatever album you wanted (including Picasa) I would give a fair amount of money for.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kafluke:

Any suggestions?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nitara:
Hi

i had cyanogenmod on my hero but it´s to slow for this rom. so i flashed herolatte on it same days ago. now i have some problems and wanted to know how i could solve them.

1, weather: i doesn´t find my possision and doesn´t show me the weather from where i am. tried it with mobile internet and wifi.

2, lockscreen picture: how can i change the picture of the lockscreen? tried to change the theme and mode but i always have the sea gull

3, youtube app: the app is working but i can´t watch the clips. i tried it yesterday with mobile internet. and today with wifi and then the phone crashed and did a reboot

I´m not to much in to this stuff with roms and so. Is there maybe a better rom for the hero?

thanks
[Hero, G2 Touch General] bharat_goku:
Use decked rom if u want speed or rose if u want sense,or try vanilla eclair fr more speed,or FroYo fr a froyo rom

I'd recommend floyo n maybe even heroine too there r so many options read comments n download a rom...
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nitara:
i wanted to try Elelinux-7.1, but i have some problems with herolatte

i can´t connected to the pc. and i can´t install the rom :(
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lolo7291:
In fact, herolatte has a lot of bugs, and it seems to be, as far as I rembered from the last time I tried it, that it was really slow compared to other roms than can be faster and more efficient.

You really should listen to bharat_goku's advices, he's really god damn right!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nitara:
I will try later to flash an other Rom. But it´s not so easy with this buggy rom.

compared to cyanogenmod, herolatte is lot more faster.

Hey guys, shoild i use voodoo lagfix

And how to install only the lagfix NOT with thw kernel
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] mike-y:
voodoo lagfix will convert your file system to ext4 and make your phone faster. It is built into the kernel though, so there is no way to install it without installing the custom kernel that includes it.

Not sure what you mean by thw kernel, but most custom kernels that include voodoo lagfix also include cwm recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jules2142:

If its a kernel for this phone, there really isnt any risk.

Aslong as you are on Gingerbread, you can use Kernel flasher to flash that kernel. That would be the recommend kernel, if not the only one really.

i got a Venue Pro from a us ebay seller, originally ATT locked and running nodo 7392. guess i got very unlucky cause my device was freezing after a couple of moves, not just under intense stressing, almost immediate freezing with any usb cable connection, random freezes even in standby.

just once i was able to upgrade the sys to Mango before usb crash, and i still got the same problems.

So i tried replacing the original microsd Sandisk 16Gb class 4 with a LEXAR 32 Gb class 10, and no improvement at all!

then i noticed that the device it s kinda lasting longer before freezing when there s no simcard inserted.But STILL with or without wifi activated hte sys crashes, it s just a matter of time.

ANYone can help at this point?

tks
[Venue Pro General] alodar1:
At this point, you've done a lot. Have you considered a few resets in a row. You have already tried without the SD card, so leave it out. Also, on setup, don't log in. Let in run without windows live for awhile...no apps, no wifi. Just to if it would work out of box. Consider that you're not trying to get it to work the way you like, but rather just getting it to work period. No login, no apps, no wifi. See if that helps

You've already tried most of what is suggested
