Patched services.jar for latest MB525 build.

If you don't know what it's for or how to use it, search. It's been covered extensively.
[Defy Android Development] ro_explorer:
Unfortunately, samba fileshare app is not compatible with Jelly Bean. It was the biggest hit I took on JB (with my nexus). Now I'm using Astro with its SAMBA module to transfer stuff. The transfer is of course managed from the phone.

There is also "WiFi file manager" app which is doing a good job at transferring files over WiFi.

[Defy Android Development] :
Interesting question: Do you think this rom will someday get the great performance and battery consumption of your old project cm7? (not asking for eta, don't really care if I have to wait 1 year XD)

I actually think it is impressive the work you and all the people helping have done, I would say its near to perfection (its not because of the list to do things) I feel its not as good as cm7 don't get mad at me :P

great work Quarx I follow this thread every day!

[Defy Android Development] fabulosospucas:
I'm still having some issues:

The phone restarts after mounting sd card after connecting phone via USB.

After every restart, there is no signal at all, so I have to change baseband once to another band, which reboots the phone and then change it back again. That's 2 restarts after the first one to get it working. A little of a nuisance.

Any thoughts?
[Defy Android Development] adi4motion:
i must say that this last build feels snappier:)

[Defy Android Development] Kyle07:
I don't get reboots after using USB.

When my Defy boots without asking for the PIN and therefore not connecting to the network I just toggle airplane mode to force the network connection to reconnect. I never switch baseband. It works well. Besides, this only happens every 5 reboots or so for me...

Mine was with this a few builds ago, just do a full wipe and re-flash the build. (bkp your things with Titanium Backup.)

It's highly recommended to update, there's a lot of changes.

Someone tested the default equalizer that comes with the build in the 28/08? Is it working? On the 22/08 it isn't. It's the last bug for me, the rest is perfect.

When i activate 2g only mode to save some juice, I get very weak or no signal at all, No such problem if 2g only disabled. Sometimes mobile picks roaming signals even in home area(I live near to border area). To verify this i flashed stock 2.2 but no such issue with stock rom.

Also my phone is Defy(MB525), but in about phone it is MB526 :p

So may i request Quarx to kindly fix this issue soon if possible :D

Are you sure you using correct baseband for your country, because i had observed many a times happening that with me. I live in India and if I swtich to 2g only, then default baseband CEE wont work, i get no-signal or ultra week signal, then I shift to SEA 3.4.3-331, and peaceful signal all the way.

There was a problem when system couldnt be mounted in recovery, on way earlier builds which made me flash super fast ms2ginger

BR: I charged the phone without booting up (with the battery animation on the screen) to 100% but when I booted the phone it stayed at 5%. With further charging it wend to 10% and stopped. Removing the battery did the trick and it went to the 100% it is supposed to be at. Always have this.
[Defy Android Development] prem0621:
Nope i am i sure about the cpu settings. It was 1000 mhz maximum. The scrolling is also too bad very laggy in cm10 as well as cm9. Currently on cm7 though, its smooth. But i am interested in cm10 mainly coz of google now. What could be the reason for the lags?
[Defy Android Development] mihovil13:
Low memory?

Full of cache?

I would recommend that you flash a clean sbf, root it, install 2ndinit, flash

newest nightly and start a new smartphone life!

Right after flashing cm10, install v6 supercharger and enjoy your new phone :)

Dont restore apps and data, cause them could be the problem.

If you restore with TB all the time, databases get fragmented
[Defy Android Development] prem0621:
Thanks will try that!
[Defy Android Development] @non4:
Has never EVER caused me any problems, however I use the same ROM for long periods and do fresh backups on every upgrade, there's a right and a wrong way to use titanium. Full wipe is better but tedious for some. And I only restore apps in data/app apart from apex launcher

And QUARX thank you! Battery is good again, and the ram management is great! I had amazing spiderman run in the background, on previous build it would close and launcher would have to redraw, now neither happens yippee :D

This is definitely one of the "on vogue" urban miths.

The v6 supercharger script has minimal effects (if any) on jelly bean. I saw actual improvements (lots) on gingerbread only.

Applied on ICS, there was some improvement in the response of the interface.

In Jellybean .. no improvement at all. I can not see any at least. And I'm applying the full stuff, with patched services.jar and so.

The only thing that V6 is visible doing, it is playing with auto-killer vaues of the system and with the way the partition are mounted .. not a big difference if you are using a software that allows you to change the auto-killer on the fly.

[Defy Android Development] mihovil13:
You're wrong.

We can talk and write about this anytime.

It depends on the device. Not every device is the same, some have other ram sticks, others havr newer mbo revision etc. But about 90% (based on the poll from v6 topic) benchmarks on Jellybean with V6 are way better in I/O and memory latency.

Also, I tested launcher redraws by back key killing option on foreground app and V6 fixes that launcher doesnt get killed if I kill an other fg app.
[Defy Android Development] ro_explorer:
Maybe I am wrong ... I accept that.

On the other hand .. since few years ago, when I had my first Android phone, I was fighting people over the "benchmarks" .. IO speed, memory latency .. etc.

Benchmarks are synthetic ... so they do NOT matter. What really matter is THE USER EXPERIENCE.

So .. as I previously said, I do not SEE/FEEL any improvement with V6 applied on the JB release, of course, ON MY PERSONAL PHONES (as you may see from my signature, I have 2 defys).

I played with V6 on various devices, running various operating systems. As I also said, i saw a real improvement on GB based roms, some on ICS and none on JB. I do not give a dime on the benchmarks as long as the phone is smooth and behaves as it should.

I also do not have launcher redraws and other stuff. I do, however, use tweaked values for the auto-killer, governor and overclocking ... but my aim is user experience, not benchmarks scores.

And currently, especially on the latest Quarx release, the user experience is the most advanced I had on defy to date. And again, the V6 script is not helping me at all ... is not hurting me either. And looking into it I can see why :) ... I know a thing or two about SOCs and chip design :).
[Defy Android Development] pepcisko:
This was actually fixed in the ROM source ;) there is a test so that the launcher or the system won't get killed by the long-back-key.

Otherwise I agree with your post. If one knows what to expect from Zep's script, it will do the trick.
[Defy Android Development] nidhish91:
I use Holo laucher HD and it never gets killed when I hit back button. Get updated mate.

No V6 applied.
[Defy Android Development] SuperSkill:
Couldn't agree more, especially on defy, all roms are same filesystem and using titanium backup between cm based and stock based roms will cause an issue sooner or later, I know cause I'm lazy and have experienced issues too. I always restore the data from swiftkey though ;) If you still want to do it best way are several folders containing backups for each of your roms ;)
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
I too agree with ro_explorer, v6 seems doesnt do any thing on jb builds, in fact occasionally it makes things not to work. Few apps earlier worked, after v6 fc'ed to me. And there are lags which weren't there, I think JB system matured and may longer need v6 kinda scripts. I stopped doing v6 thingy on jb builds long back.
[Defy Android Development] ofmb:
did you try the special DB conversion methods in TB on JB?
[Defy Android Development] mihovil13:
Try using other launchers

---------- Post added at 04:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:20 PM ----------

Therefor you need to know what v6 script even does.

If you dont understand it or how to use it,its normal that script doesnt do anything.

E.g., for fc errors you need to check 99supercharger and set it to run on boot but before that you need to fix emmisions on boot.

That's why I stick on MS2Ginger + v6

Its the best rom for defy, go launcher makes it eye candy and its probably the snappiest without tweaking and freezes.

In 6 months of usage,I never got a single freeze so when CMX reaches that stage, then I'll flash it.
[Defy Android Development] premaca:
To be honest, I did all you mentioned. I know much about what v6 does may be not full, but I tried to use every single option available to get best out if v6. I have programming and Linux knowledge. I haven't gone thru scrit fully but I'm pretty much sure that from usage is point v6 scales down on JB compared to GB. If mere tweaks like setting nice values etc through scripting does the magic, then source itself can adapt that over time. Do you reaaly think that source company doesnt even aware of such small tweaks, they certainly might have and adapted. And some things may not be done for the good of all vendors.

Edit: You upgrade from GB to JB and comment. I used both and was on ms2g with v6 for quite some time.

I'm on 25/08 nightly and still facing this issue. And yes, if you leave it for about 10-15 mins the phone turn on again. If only the screen (not the notification bar) because sometimes it freezes just a second after the turn on so I can see a freezed screen. But if I call me or send me a whatsapp I can see the notification icons changing, even the traffic on wifi icon changes...

I have connected the phone to pc and open logcat and the only strange thing I can see is one about Ignoring notification with icon = 0 vibration = 0 etc etc. It keeps repeating over the 10 minutes, but dont know if it is related to the issue or what means that...

Never used supercharger, running full gapps & never disabled HWA, and when i check i've between 70/120 free ram, and never had lags even when phone and sms apps were locked in memory, and even when multitasking.

Mine is smooth as hell! Did you disable HWA for all apps that don't need it? Only things that do really is browser, gallery, launcher.

To add something to the discussion, I have quite big free memory problems. I never have more then 50 MB free. I have Quickdroid and A2DP Volume running all the time. But most memory is consumed by SPB Shell launcher. What bothers me most is that sometimes the system kills the launcher to free some memory.And because SPB Shell is taking very long time to start it is very annoying. I would choose a different launcher, but I like SPB Shell and I'm used on it.

Do you think that removing some Google Apps that I don't use would increase the free memory?
[Defy Android Development] fudger:
I concur with that, my UI is very slick with 150mb of free memory with HWA set on browser, launcher and gallery only.

Can I just clarify however, when you say '...remove bloatware as well..' what and how have you done that exactly?

[Defy Android Development] Deonix:
Mine as well. Smooth. Learn about RAM Management in Android JB people. It's okay if ram is in use to cache apps. It will free up when needed.

It's not like on your Pc.

Stop talking and complaining about the free ram! The smoothness of your phone doesn't have anything to do with free RAM.

[Defy Android Development] Persechini:
The problem isn't ram being used by background apps per se, but there are apps that keep quite active in the background, and those are the main culprits to performance lost. I find that keeping facebook (and google plus, when I had that installed) running and logged will hit your smoothness in the face. log them of, or uninstall them completely, and you have a lot less problems. Games are also ones to be wary not to forget running.

About keeping sms and phone apps locked in memory, I wish there was at least a way to opt in or out. Personally, the single issue that bugs me the most is when I get a call and it takes forever for the app to open, or to respond any touch I make.
