I did not face any battery issues with CM7.2 RC2. Also, a week back I upgraded to the latest Nightly for the same. Worked as good as RC2. Has a much better dial pad feature.. wild card search with drop down.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
You should flash CM9 kernel. Wipe cache means Wipe cache partition. Battery fix is for DEFY red lens.As it uses DEFY+ rom battery in DEFY+ is different inorder to fix it we use battery fix.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
CM7.2 is pretty good. You find any issues.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Don't forget apply that battery fix. I guess your mistake was you flashed the kernel.
[Defy General] egmruigrok:
I did the battery fix. Could he the kernel in deed, but i don't minder anymore.

It's running smooth without any problems soort far!!

You are pretty busy with this topic, nice that you reakt so quickly!
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Ya. Try those boot animation in my thread. First one is complete and second one is half the way.
[Defy General] kapil_sabharwal:
Excellent.. So everything done.. and ICS 4.0.4 running soo fine :cool:

Also, the phone model also changed to mb526.. :):)

Q: Now how can I apply nightly updates whenever these come out, without losing the settings and customizations on home screen etc? Any straightway here?

Also,

For apps backup I am using Astro File Manager

For apps's data backup, I am using MyBackup Root

Q: Any better way here as well?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
You can just flash any DEFY+ CM9 directly. You won't loose data or anything but before flashing just wipe cache and dalvik cache.

Apex launcher is way better than the Default CM9 launcher.

Titanium Backup was good but the current version is crap. Actually i don't use any APP's to backup data or installed apps. I do it manually. But there is an easy too, there a windows based application that can Backup and Restore Data and APP's. Here is the link: http://forum.mobilism.org/viewtopic.php?t=312426

This is better than those apps you mentioned above. You just hit the button and relax, it will do the job for you.
[Defy General] kidrobot52:
I don't think you were suppose to flash the kernel seeing how you already have the gb sbf on your phone. Try to install it again and just don't install the kernel. Let me know how it goes.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
He got it fixed. Thanks for your suggestion
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Planning doing something stupid tomorrow. Gonna flash CM9 DEFY+ on DEFY Green lens and gonna try and fix camera.
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
I updated from CM7 to CM9 without flashing the kernel and it worked fine So I presume if I go to another CM9 version I don't have to flash any kernel ,no ?

I have a defy with red lens
[Defy General] janeindiran:
If it works fine you can flash any DEFY+ CM9. Wipe cache and dalvik cache before flashing
[Defy General] zaiko2000:

http://miuiandroid.com/community/threads/miui-2-4-20-roms-ics-gb.16252/ here you can find the rom for defy
[Defy General] egmruigrok:
Hai,

I'm using cm9 for a week, but i noticed that the batterylife is very poor.

I have to charge 2 times a day, while on cm7 it was 1 time a day.

Is this known or is it just my phone that has this problem?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Ya it does happen. Use CPU tuner. With this app you can change your cpu functioning. Also use V6 supercharger. If you are not satisfied use WIUI its very good.
[Defy General] egmruigrok:
Wiui is not available for red lens is it?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
It works but i didn't try personally because my DEFY is green lens. It should work fine if haven't flashed with DEFY+ sbf. If you try let me know whether it worked. It is best ROM but has few bugs like CM9
[Defy General] egmruigrok:
Yes, i did flash with DEFY+ sbf, so i don't think it will work?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Ya WIUI is based on FROYO kernel and probably you would have flashed the one with BL7. If you flash this rom on GB kernel it won't work and you cannot flash Froyo kernel because of BL7
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
I'm using cm72-111204.0310-NIGHTLY-Defy for the moment on defy red lens.

I want to install the WIUI_v4_Defy_2_5_11 rom. Can I install this without flashing a kernel ?

Wipe data, cache , dalvik , install , wipe cache and dalvik ? Is that possible ?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Give it a try. I think it won't work but that rom is worth a try
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
Why do you think it will not work ? It's based on froyo kernel ?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Its based on FROYO kernel
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Is it possible for you to downgrade??
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
I'm sorry I was wrong I ment the miuiandroid_Defy-2.4.20 rom or maybe the WajkIUI_multilang_2.4.20 rom . What do you think ?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Try MIUI and see. If that works WIUI will work. It should work fine
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
Do the apps also work on miui ? (superuser, evernote and so on ?)
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Yes it does work.
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
ok I installed it and it works ! But now I have to install titanium BU , does that work ? We'll see!

And do I have to install Gapps here as wel ?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
No you don't have to install gapps and all the apps will work fine
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
It looks all ok except I can't find the gps ? (normally it 's standing near wifi and bluetooth)
[Defy General] janeindiran:
You can find it in notification bar-> toggles
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
This is definitely the best rom I used until now !
[Defy General] janeindiran:
MIUI or WIUI ICS?
[Defy General] zaiko2000:
I installed MIUI and going to wait a little bit .Is the WIUI ICS or CM7 ?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
I would say WIUI ICS if you can live with few bugs because you get a good Customizable UI.

[Defy General] Moises_sto_zn:
These work bootanimation with any rom (CM7, CM9) in defy mb525?

Sorry,my bad english.:p
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Its not necessary that you should flash CM7 and then CM9. If you are going to try that don't flash kernel in case of DEFY+ or DEFY flashed with DEFY+ sbf. Flash CM7 reboot it. Let it load completely. Reboot wipe data, cache , dalvik cache and then flash CM9.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Its for DEFY+/DEFY and it doesn't matter what rom you are using, it will work on all ROMS
[Defy General] Nerd Rage LBC:
Ahh crap I forgot the dalvik cache... might explain launcher flicker...
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Yes. Use APEX launcher. Its very good.

how to cm7 to cm9/miui ics

Hi i am new to this place

i am using a Defy

now running cm7

i want to change to ics

which rom would you suggest and which we would be the best with less of bugs.

and please give me the instructions to install the same
[Defy General] janeindiran:
use CM9 epsylon latest build. it has less bugs. If you wanna try MIUI v4, go for JIUI

Flashing instructions for CM9

1.Enter into recovery wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache

2.flash cm9

3.flash gapps, reboot.

its just like flashing cm7
[Defy General] zaiko2000:

[Defy General] janeindiran:
Ya you cannot downgrade your device now. You are stuck in BL7. See this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1595013 to get your defy+ back and its pre rooted so you won't have rooting issues. Let me know whether you fixed your device.
[Defy General] jaywalker32:
Hi. I have a quick question.

I have been using Epsylon's CM9 for some time on my Defy+. I was just wondering if it was possible to just flash Quarx's or any of the other CM9 versions over this without having to data wipe (just like you're flashing a newer nightly build)
[Defy General] janeindiran:
You can flash Quarx version(You might end up bricking) but if you flash other ICS ROM's you end up bricking for sure.
[Defy General] jaywalker32:
Ok thanks!

Guess I'll just wait for Epsylon's update. :D

I have a T-Mobile U.S defy. I got 3G on 2.2 but when i flashed to most of ICS ROMs, I always get Edge speed. I go to network settings and changed it to GSM auto prl but I still get edge. Does anybody know the solutions to this? Thanks
[Defy General] pang39:
Dear J,

Not work, still no lid.

Thanks so much for your sweet ROM.

Steps to upgrade from CM9 (old) to CM9 (new)

Hello,

I am using Moto Defy which has been updated to Moto Defy+ rom.

Can you please confirm if the steps below are correct?

1. Reboot into recovery

2. Wipe Cache

3. Wipe Dalvik Cache

4. Install the update zip from SD Card

5. Install CM9-kernal-signed.zip (IS THIS REQUIRED EACH TIME?)

6. Install Gapps zip (IS THIS REQUIRED EACH TIME?)

7. Battery fix for DEFY Red Lens

Is this it? Any other additional steps required?

Thanks for your help.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
You don't have to flash GB kernel. Its install zip not update zip. If you wipe data every time, you have to flash Gapps.
[Defy General] tulen_kobi:
Hi, what is the difference between CM9 and CM7 kernel?

CM7 is version around 2.3 and CM9 around 2.6 ?

I don't need CM9 kernel for CM9 nighty builds?

For example it is possible to run Android 4.0.4 on CM7 kernel?

What difference it will make in compare to using CM9 kernel?

I am a bit confused about this.

Recently I have flashed CM9 kernel and CM9 Defy+ nighty build on Defy red lens. Now in device info it shows model number MB526 which is Defy+ I guess, but I have regular Defy.

Kobi
[Defy General] janeindiran:
CM7 kernel is for defy green lens
[Defy General] droid_<3er:
I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA how janeindiran is able to put up with all of you noobs.

Asking questions is fine, but if you go on flashing without reading THOROUGHLY on the consequences then that's your own fault.

NO, YOU DON'T NEED THE SUPPOSEDLY CALLED CM9 KERNEL FOR ALL CM9 BUILDS. YOU NEED TO READ

IF IT'S A FROYO KERNEL BUILD OR GINGERBREAD KERNEL BUILD.

The supposed "CM9 Kernel" is only for Defy red lens and Defy+ users WHO ALREADY ARE ON OFFICIAL GINGERBREAD ROMS.

If you have never used an official gingerbread ROM with MotoBlur, then use the "CM7 Kernel".

CM7 kernel is from a froyo 2.2 rom. The "CM9 Kernel" is from a gingerbread 2.3 ROM.

If you are using a Froyo kernel build, you use the CM7 kernel. If you are using a gingerbread kernel build, you use the CM9 kernel.

There IS NO SUCH THING AS ANDROID 2.6. ALL FROYO AND GINGERBREAD KERNELS ON ALL DEVICES USE 2.6.x.x.x kernels.

You don't need to remember the kernel actual name, just know if it's a froyo or gingerbread kernel.
[Defy General] tulen_kobi:
I knew that thing about kernels, just I didn't know if I can run CM9 nighty builds with Froyo kernel.

Despite the fact I got Defy with 2.1 Eclair build with motoblur, it is Defy with RED lens so I didn't see any problem with upgrading it to Froyo and Gingerbread kernel.

I successfully flashed Gingerbread kernel and I have no problem with CM9 Defy+ nighties.

My question was because I got a bit confused after reading several topics.

I still don't understand possibility to run on Froyo kernel Android 4.0.4.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
To make it real simple, Kernel is like a fuel to car and ANDROID 4.0.4 is just a engine. It just needs a fuel to run a engine, it doesn't matter whether it is a high octane gasoline or just a normal gasoline. Are you clear now????
[Defy General] tulen_kobi:
Thank you, :)

I did also some google research so I think that I finally got it.

I was not familiar with linux so I didn't got it immediately.
[Defy General] red red robbo:
Question about CM9 on Defy (green lens)

At least I think its a green lens, looks yellow to me, but it's definitely not a red lens.

When I got my defy some 18 months ago it was running 2.1 (thanks T-Mobile for being so up to date, not!)

When available I upgraded via the official path to 2.2.

Then I mucked about with stuff I didn't understand and tried to remove some of the MotoBlur junk and ended up removing the account settings system app.

As I'd already broken the official software I decided to try this ROM flashing game so I installed CM 7 (GB 2.3.7). I did this by installing the 2ndinit app (phone was already rooted, hence the account system app disaster), the CM7 zip file, then after reading the instructions again the GAPPS zip file.

Everything worked fine, almost. I couldn't get some websites to work, seems they were ones using flash. I never got around to trying iPlayer or YouTube as I noticed there was a CM9 for the defy so I abandoned my slightly faulty GB and went for ICS 4.0.4.

I installed this by again installing the CM9 zip then the GAPPS zip. I didn't really understand the bit in the instructions about flashing the FroYo kernel so I didn't bother, thinking I would deal with it if the thing didn't work. Well it did work and I again have what seems to be a fully working phone, but again without any flash support. No iPlayer, no YouTube :(

I tried editing the build.prop file and adding com,adobe.flashplayer to the hwui white list as suggest somewhere on the net but this didn't work.

My question is, how the heck do I get flash to work on my phone?

I appreciate I may sound like I know what I am doing (I'm a software engineer so I should do) but I am very much a novice when it comes to this Android thing, I have no idea what a Dalvik cache is for instance, so please please assume you are talking to a no-nothing if you have any suggestions.

I did read some of this thread but couldn't find anything that looked exactly like my problem. If it has been answered then feel free to insult me so long as you include a link.

Thanks.

yes. but you can use DEFY+ v4 rom. Search for xiui
[Defy General] janeindiran:
you can get those apps from play store. they don't add those apps in roms
[Defy General] red red robbo:
Sorry, I didn't mean that iPlayer and YouTube weren't available, I meant that they didn't work once I had downloaded them.

On YouTube I get sound but no video, iPlayer just hangs when I try and play anything and several websites with flash content just hang as they are loading.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
You tube etc. Let me what you want short, i can help you
[Defy General] red red robbo:
Think I might have edited my post before you replied :)

I have all the apps downloaded but they are not working. It's the same with several websites.

The problem seems to be related to flash content.

To be honest, I'm not sure this is the right thread as I don't think it relates to the particular version of CM9 I downloaded. I have CyanogenMod version 9-20120715-NIGHTLY-jordan

Am I in the right place, like I said, I'm new to all this modding stuff.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
Are you saying gapps are not working???
[Defy General] red red robbo:
No all gapps are installed and working

YouTube, iPlayer and some flash based websites don't play video though.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
If you are using defy green lens use epsylon's latest build, if defy red lens or defy+ use quarx latest build
[Defy General] red red robbo:
It's green lens, so would that be from this link I got from the front page?

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

If so the build with the latest date on there is July 14 which I am pretty sure is the same as I have already got.

Can I update to this without a completely clean reset? If so then I will try it again to make sure.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and dalvik cache and then flash cm9 rom(latest is 14th. use that.) then flash gapps. Since it is in development if you find bugs and if you can't bare it, use CM7
[Defy General] red red robbo:
Oh goody, reinstalling all my apps again :)

I think I had the same problem with CM7 as well, makes me think I must be doing something wrong.

I'll give it a try any way, thanks.

going back to cm7 from cm9

is there a way to go back to cm7 from cm9? It's because i can't use internet with my data plan even after adding the APN and changing the band to the used on my country. When I was using cm7 it was ok, but the same band and apn don't work on the cm9

Thank you for all the effort put in these builds. I want to say that I tryed both epsylon and quarx CM9 builds on a red lens defy but my capacitive buttons wouldn't light up. So I flashed CM10 build by quarx and everything is ok now.

CM9 to CM10 Nightly?

Hi, Could you also add the instructions to upgrade from CM9 to CM10?

I do not want to lose any data or the already installed apps. Is it possible to do the same using epsylon3 or quarx2k's CM10 builds?
[Defy General] janeindiran:
No its impossible. You wipe data,cache and dalvik cache, which means you will loose data.
[Defy General] JostVice:
hello, i'm on cm 7.1-11 and thinking of updating to 7.2, is it recommended to do a full data wipe, or doing the update.zip thing is enought?

Do i need to update g-apps manually?

Also why there isn't any link for CM10 on the first post? And why no link to final 7.2?

And kind of offtopic, why there isn't any 7.2 topic on the forums? I dont want to update to CM9 until an stable, but there will be an stable rel for CM9 or just CM10?

Thanks, great post.
[Defy General] janeindiran:
If you end in trouble wipe data else not needed. I didn't include those links. I will try to include. CM9 is stable. No there won't be an official release by CM for CM9 or CM10. There is no topic because you will end up seeing no visible difference between CM 7.1 and 2.
[HTC One X] rajitsingh:
On stock 1.28 (without the 3-dot menu patch) do you get the three dot menu in the Friendcaster app?

I've been in touch with Friendcaster developers about the dots showing in their ICS optimized app and they've said that it shouldn't be showing.

Now since 1.28 was supposed to fix the 3 dot menu showing up in some apps in which it was not supposed to (like YouTube), they want to know if the issue still persist in 1.28.

Since the update has still not hit India, I cannot test it myself. Please do report back. It's a really nice app :)
[HTC One X] Johnny0906:
Am sending my unit back to be replaced due to a hardware issue.

My phone has CLEAR hardware issues so I do not worry about software.

And it is not branded.

Ok so I have a question. I got my GPS dongle yesterday (it works great!) however When I try to use it with google maps for navigation without wifi, maps says it needs a data connection to work. I'm not sure how some people here are using the TFP with the dongle for navigation without wifi. Can someone enlighten me?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] neilcbennett:
gps needs data

The issue is that google maps and navigation needs to download maps and data. What you need is a navigation app with offline maps. For mapping try mapdroyd.
