GREAT THANK YOU ALL FOR. I rooted defy mini with spanis sbf, and leol0 way - and it is great now.

But I have only one problem no 3G and after restar it says "you must acquire a data plan in order to use" But how can i do it. As a reason of it i can use inly wi-fi internet. It is quite sadly. Maybe anyone can show me a way to fix it.

Yes, but cant get crtl c on swype, and no cursor arrows on android kb.

No matter if i install hackers internally or by link2sd i only get android KB when i enable it. It works fine on my JB tablet though.

Custm ROM sounds good indeed:good:

Wish i had the brains to do it

I just got an 8GB microSD card to replace the 2GB one i am using. I was going to partition it 6GB FAT32 and 2GB Ext 2, and then dd each partition from the old card.

What is the best size partition for link2sd on our phones? Can it be too big? Should it be ext2, 3, or 4?

Too many questions?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krule031:
So, you just have to enable that keyboard, go to example, google search tap in search bar and hold, and then it should pop out some windows from where you can change it. Like this: you choose this, this means input method, its on croatian so, you choose that and then this pop ups: it says choose input method, and then you choose hacker kb.

About the partitiong, i havr an 8GB card and sdext2 partition is 1.3GB big, and other half is for music and all other stuff(the FAT32 partition).

Give it yourselves a try and share your opinions...

For me is the best tool for maintaining the mini in good running order.

hi everyone!

first thanks to everyone who made root possible! !

now I have a problem:

I got a new battery but it is not recognised as original Motorola..... when trying to charge it says something like:

"Your device battery is invalid and cannot be charged. Replace the battery with an original Motorola battery"

### edit: I was to fast for posting... th info below referees to the defy and defy+

I found out that it's the job of /bin/battd and /lib/libbattd.so to find out if the battery is original.

for other phones there are fixes for that files. for example for defy and defy+

does anyone know if I can use the same fix? or do we need to get our one ones compiled to our kernel?

or maybe we can find those files for our phone in an very old firmware where Motorola did not activate the check?

I can't check this out as I don't have a computer. just my phone....

maybe someone can help me here out?

thanx, David

yea, I didn't check in the phone... the info referred to the defy and defy+

I thought it's the same software that manages the charging as the new battery is from a broken defy....

but obviously Motorola uses an other software in the mini to verify and charge the battery!

any ideas?

if I would be home with my laptop I would try to get the battery daemon running, but it will not be before end of March that I'll be back home...

so maybe some one can show me a safe solution ore I'll have to find an external charger...

Good news...

Well, it is a boldly decision but quite welcomed!

As long as no one else is wiling to work extra in order to give us something extra besides this stock rom, your future work will make happy a lot of users!!!

But first, I think, the custom recovery image (CWM recovery) should be flashed permanently into mini. And it seems to be impossible so far...

Anyway, good luck with the project!!!

Still, do not let the school aside! Education it is a priority...

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leos0:

First you need to port 2ndinit to defy mini, then you can work on cm rom.
