Can't confirm either, Defy Red Lens @ Quarx 120708 Defy+ build. Previews working very smooth, as (almost) everything else, HWA full on, black listed Solid Explorer and HD widgets which work with HWA fine too, but load a little slower...

Anyway, i've been following this thread/forum for quite some time now.. Been testing a lot of nightly's (epsy, quarx and fuzz builds included) and i can just say there's been a lot of progress in the past few months, of course - we can all thank our hard-working devs for giving us the opportunity to experience our droids more than we ever hoped we could... For the moment i'm on the latest Quarx build (08072012), turned Hwa full on and everything is working fine except for 1 little thing. My battery isn't recognized by the OS. It's showing 100% all of the time. I've tried wiping battery stats, clearing cache and dalvik, even flashing the battery fix for defy+ roms, but nothing helped. I'm not sure, but it may be caused by the different kernel i flashed. Usually i flash CM9 signed kernel for defy+ builds (whether it's epsy, quarx or fuzz build), but this time i flashed the gb-234-451-134 kernel.. Well, i just reflashed the same build again (clean install) but this time used CM9 kernel and now the battery is showing 80%. I'll try the battery fix now and report after playing with the rom for a while... Keep up the good work guys!
[Defy General] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Do you have a Defy or Defy+??? Guess it is a Defy, otherwise you wouldn't be flashing kernels.

If you own a red-lensed defy, flash the battery fix from my signature (ICS Mods, of course)
[Defy General] Kemby13:
Thx for the info, but i'm well aware of the battery fix from the link in ur sig, i just wasn't sure if the battery fix i had was the newer version so i deleted the "old" one from my sd-card. Anyway i have this fix: Red_Lense_Battery_Fix_for_Defy_Plus_ROMs.zip (186,59 kb). Used it on epsy's and kang's defy+ builds without problems.. Btw, i just flashed the fix u suggested and batt is showing correct %. Thx!

[Defy General] Bleak3993:
If I have a Defy, not a Defy+, what is the difference between froyo and gingerbread kernel?
[Defy General] evertjr:
Defy+ comes with android gingerbread 2.3.5/6 (and of course his kernel)

normal Defy comes with Android Froyo, but you can flash gingerbread kernel on normal Defy...

The essential diference between Defy and Defy+ is battery, Defy+ battery is a little bigger, so you'll have to flash some kernel/battery fix if you want to use gingerbead kernel.

I'm not sure, but I hear that gingerbread kernel have some battery optimizations and have 4 clock phases.

someone correct me if I'm saying something wrong

Flashing lastest defy+ build on a defy red lense:

-wiped cache/dalvik.

-flashed rom.

-flashed kernel 4.5.2-109_DHT-22-kernel.zip

-flashed gapps.

-wipe cache/dalvik.

-reboot.

Then it stuck on motorola splash screen. This never happen to me whit any of the Quarx's build, but always on the defy+'s build from Epsylon.

I had to flash sbf, 2init, etc now, but is so strange. Will try lastest froyo kernel then...
[Defy General] uluxus:
Latest Defy+ build, my VSEL 3 is never used with Smartass governor.

Deep Sleep 42%

Apex Launcher on Quarx + build

OK, I've done some testing on Apex Launcher to establish why some say its smooth with HWA enabled and others, like myself, say its laggy.

I uninstalled Apex and then reinstalled it from the market, and it was smooth, with HWA enabled. Then I restored my desktop backup for Apex and it became laggy again. I then deleted all app data for Apex - smooth again.

The problem is evident if you have 5 home screens, each full of icons. As i started adding icons and widgets, the homescreen previews became laggy again.

Conclusion: Apex with HWA is OK if you have few homescreens with few icons. Apex with HWA is not OK if you have 5 homesreens, each with 50% or more icons.

That brings me back to me original question... does anyone know how to disable HWA for a particular app with Quarx's builds?
[Defy General] mihovil13:
Set whitelist to =0

Then enable Force 2D GPU Rendering in Development settings for full HWA
[Defy General] whiizkid009:
Hi,

I have Defy(Red lens) and I have been using skankwich 0616 build.....and did not have any problem with the rom but when I heard about the HWA enabled eppy's build...tested that but the phone was bcoming too hot and battery performance was below par...so I want to try out Quarx's build for defy...do i need to flash any kernel as in previous roms i never did....
[Defy General] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
Changelog is in the second post.

Menu -> Manage applications -> open a particular app and if moving it to SD card is supported, the Move to SD button will be active. Else, it will be greyed out and inactive.

English, please. Changelog is in the second post.

It depends on what kernel do you have right now. If you have never flashed a kernel, you are on Froyo kernel. In this case, if you want to flash the Defy+ build, you should flash the GB kernel from OP. If you are going to flash the Froyo build, you don't need to flash kernel. Either way, I would recommend when flashing a new build, to flash the corresponding kernel for it - won't hurt if you do.

NB! For those of you, flashing the Defy+ builds on a regular Defy - latest two builds require the flashing of the Battery fix from my signature, no matter if you flashed a kernel or not!
[Defy General] NITRO_100:
That isn't quite true cause I didn't have to flash the battery fix, just update like always with cache/dalvik wipe and the battery is still recognized.

Sent from my ICS Defy
[Defy General] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
I had to flash it both times, 'cause otherwise battery was stack at 70% and didn't charge. Eventually, when I flashed it in the morning, my battery was at 19% :D
[Defy General] trurl3:
+1 with all conclusions - I was using Epsy's ROM's and then it shows up new Quarx ROM for Defy. After installing it and recovering apps using TB I can say so Apex is laggy, but Trebuchet is oily slick in this version of ROM with 5 screens and all my widgets and shorts on.

I assume so hwa is full enabled in 120707 although in build.prop there are no lines with records "white list" and "black list". If you want to block hwa for some of apps, you have to add to build.prop lines:

hwa black list: 'name of app' - in case of Apex it is probabely com.anddoes.launcher

hwa white list: 0 (but I am not sure if it is really needed in this case - please correct me if I'm wrong)

Putting count zero after colon in 'black list line' will resulting in block all app's. In the same manner putting zero in line "white list" will allow hwa for all apps.

I did not try it , but must do it and will see difference as for me Trebuchet is less convenient as Apex and for it I was bought Apex pro alredy. :)
[Defy General] sebx_g1:
Any problems with Quarx build for green lens Defy ? 4.5.2_DHT-22_kernel - what is that kernel - is if froyo or gb ?
[Defy General] ktmbikerman:
I've tried messing with whitelists and blacklists, but it makes no difference. I've also tried using the HWA Selector app and selecting all except Apex, also no success... The Selector places apps in the hwui.allow folder, but none in the hwui.deny folder
[Defy General] UncleDan:
I haven't checked, but is it possible that devs disabled whitelist and blacklist as it was only a workaround?
[Defy General] ktmbikerman:
Blacklist still works with the Epsylon builds, but not the Quarx builds
[Defy General] Azulfiel:
I dont know if anyone had been saw this bug....

If my battery down until 0% the telephone dont charge anymore. I plug the charger, the white led is on but the battery dont charge.

I had to take off the battery and charge it externally until have voltage enough to crank the phone.

"I know I shouldn't let the battery charge finish until 0%" but in froyo and CM7 when the battery is completly discharged we plug the charger and appear that stack icon showing the battery is charging.

Anyone already was in this situation?

Thanks a lot.
[Defy General] Swift2603:
Just one tiny thing - The game "Dungeon Hunter 3" is not working any more. Ran like a charm on Epsylons built from 03/07

- The kernel is GB, I think
[Defy General] FcukBloat:
Hi guys two questions.. when installing the latest build (i will do a fresh install) is really needed to install also gapps? (with epsylon builds is not needed if I am right)

And hwa is enabled by default or not? In the last pages someone said it is, while someone said you need to edit build.prop.. what is the truth? :)

Thanks!
[Defy General] pepcisko:
1. Gapps cannot be distributed with Cyanogenmod. It doesn't matter if you're using Quarx or Epsylon's build - if you

want

to have Gapps, you

have to

install them separately.

2. enabled by default. No need to edit anything.
[Defy General] FcukBloat:
Thanks a lot! So maybe i didn't notice the missing gapps because i don't use any of them..is there somewhere a list of the apps included in the gapps zip just to double check?

Thanks again!
[Defy General] ktmbikerman:
Went back to Epsylon's build... to blacklist any app, just place a file with the name of the app in the data/local/hwiu.deny folder, so I put an empty file called com.anddoes.launcher in this folder and no more laggy Apex

The build.prop file in this build has the following line: hwui.blacklist=none
[Defy General] pepcisko:
Usually the gapps archive includes all the proprietary google applications and libraries/frameworks/whatever else that you can find in a stock device by default (synchronization with google accounts, play store, apps like voice searching etc., face unlock libs, TTS and other things), you can download the rest from the Play Store. I have never seen a self-explanatory list of what is included, but you can download the latest zip and check inside :)
[Defy General] Nistenf:
I'm having random freezes, the only way to turn off the phone is to pull out the battery. I'm using latest Quarx CM9 on Defy+. Any ideas how to solve this?
[Defy General] sbE:
I updated to the new build (no fresh install). my build.prop now contains the following:

hwui.whitelist=

hwui.blacklist=0

i thought the build.prop should be look like this...

hwui.whitelist=0

hwui.blacklist=none

what's the right configuration for full hwa?
[Defy General] oSandmaNo:
I just checked my build prop and its the same as yours!
[Defy General] sbE:
Like other Posts here on xda the build.prop should look like the second one...

[Defy General] Mister Ypsilon:
HWA is activated for all processes with the default configuration. But I think the other values should work too. You can check HWA by using Chrome. If it works, HWA is definitely active.
[Defy General] ktmbikerman:
I'm fairly sure there's nothing you can do in Quarx's builds to have anything but full HWA
[Defy General] FcukBloat:
Thanks you are right didn't think about that possibility sorry!
[Defy General] Mister Ypsilon:
Oh, yes, you're right! Quarx disabled white-/blacklist in the framework, so you can't disable hwui for any process. He should throw that hwui properties out of the default build.prop, the useless white-/blacklists are a bit confusing.

BTW: Does anyone know if wifi tethering still doesn't work in the new builds?

For me after following the "Snappy Launcher 101" from OP, I got several force close in the Apex Launcher, after restarting. What I did which solved was rename the "Apex Launcher 1.2.0.apk" to "ApexLauncher.apk" (with no space or point in the file name) in the /system/app folder. After that, restarting and everything is fine. If someone else could confirm this, maybe Auris could please add this info to the OP.

OK, I'm sorry guys for this... It's my fault. When I first wrote the "Snappy Launcher 101", I attached an old Apex version - 1.0.4, that I had downloaded on XDA, but then I decided to put the new version - 1.2.0 and I renamed the file, leaving spaces, so probably that's what caused the issue.

not smooth... just as b4

no difference...

still about 2-10 fps on a red-lense defy...

not comparable to any other device nor to the ipod touch(perfect 30)...

just laggy... usable but laggy.

the quality of the shots however has improved and it takes photos faster!

btw the video preview is a bit faster than the photo preview(around 10-15 fps)

but it records in real 24 fps! (recorded output is smooth) and that what really matters!(video playback drops frames a bit but that is just the player...)

is there any way of lower quality higher fram rate vids or is that just out of hardware's reach?

PERFECT ROM BTW!
