One (major) issue found with CM10-20130220-NIGHTLY-mb526

I have been using 2nd Boot ROMs for my Defy+ for last few months and CM10-20130220-NIGHTLY-mb526 is the best of the lot so far.

My daily usage Pattern:

Wi-Fi turned on 15 HRs a day, Mobile Data 2G/3G for 10-15 mins a day, light game play (0.5-1 HR), 1 HR calling, 2-3 HR web browsing.

Pros with CM10-20130220-NIGHTLY-mb526 ROM:

1. Great Battery life: 1.5+ Days easily

2. Faster than all other ROMs i have used so far

But, I have encountered one (MAJOR) ISSUE with this ROM:

With my Bluetooth turned OFF, I try to share a file (an apk or a song for example) through my file manager (i use X-Plore) and choose Bluetooth as the option. I get a pop-up asking, "Bluetooth is not turned on. Do you want to switch it ON?". I reply YES. And 2-3 seconds later, my Defy+ REBOOTS. But it keeps in the BOOTLOOP forever.

It remains in the BOOTLOOP even if I remove the battery and re-insert it and restart the Phone. I tried wiping DALVIK Cache and Battery Stats and re-installing the ROM (without Wiping DATA/Factory Reset) from Recovery Menu but phone still remains in the BOOTLOOP.

Only way i get back my phone working is wiping DATA/FACTORY RESET and then Install the ROM afresh.

I have faced this issue multiple times.

P.S.: There have been 1-2 instances when the issue did not occur and I was able to transfer the file(s).

I have not been able to play .MP4 or .AVI files using ANY video player apps. I tried MX Player, Archos Player and native video players. I tried VPlayer also but it stayed at the screen 'initializing decodes' and I had Force Kill it. BSPlayer never kicked off and crashed every time I tried to run it.

Please advise. :(

Hello! is my first post here.

I've noticed a strange thing after the flash of the build of quarx.

After I have done the 3 wipe and the flash, in my wifi config i see always the wlan i have used before, it's normal?

There are some files wich are not deleted after these passages?

I had some ringing problem, could be for the same reason?

Yesterday i've flashed the latest build, seems to be more smooth and the battery more durable

Thanks and sorry for my bad english :P
[Defy Android Development] niksy+:
The WiFi access points being restored is the work of the Google backup/restore feature... Is Settings - Backup & reset - "Back up my data" and "Automatic restore" selected as ON? Then that's what's restoring your WiFi settings after each flash ;)

The ringing problem is a known issue, it starts happening after a long uptime (24 and more hours, not the same on everybody's phone). You can reboot your phone once every day, or you could try sevenrock's custom built ROM with a very old version of the kernel (although other problems have been reported with it). You should probably try the latest Quarx's build, since it's based on an almost stock kernel, ringing bug shouldn't be there...

Stuck in bootloader after selecting recovery on 07/03

Hi,

I flashed 07/03 ROM but it wasn't connecting to any network, so to flash 20/02 ROM, I selected reboot -> recovery. The phone then rebooted into Bootloader mode. It is now stuck in bootloader mode even if I pull the battery and restart.

I flashed Froyo SBF just to check if that would make the bootloader go away. But even that didn't help. The flashing completed and at the reboot, bootloader loads again!

Can someone suggest a way forward?

Quarx' 2013-03-07 update breaks mobile internet (maybe even the whole RIL) for me. I tried the fix from msginger and the newest JellyX-Kernel, but I couldn't get mobile data back to work. I also tried changing the baseband version in settings without success.

I'm using the same basband on 07.03.2012 and mobile data works alright. Maybe you should try a clean install or try to update your version again.

:confused: Which build do you use? Is there a grey wlan icon in the status bar or isn't there anything?

Try restart your phone and your modem/router.

I have also a question. I tried to change the brightness levels of the lightsensor. But when i change some values and press on save the settings crashes and restore themselve to default. What can I do?

ring tone bug partialy solved

So, I have always been affected by the ring tone bug and slowness after some hours of uptime. Recently I changed the governor to smartass and overclocked the cpu. The problem seems to be partialy solved. Now the tone always ring, with some delay (3-4 vibrations and then it starts) and the phone is a little bit smoother even after 140 hours. Don't know if these things are related, or since I have "improved" the performance it's normal, but still wanted to share this.

Thanks Quarx for adding bp panic;)
[Defy Android Development] woodman:
Could you tell me what is bp panic please ?
[Defy Android Development] my2ct:
AW: [JB] CM10 Android 4.1.2 for the Defy(+)

BP panic is a mechanism which starts some actions in case of RIL Bug. (Switch off/on data, switch off/on flight mode, reboot).

This workaround is a rescue mechanism implemented by maniac103.

[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
It restarts the radio when the signal is lost so you don't have to keep on switching data on/off to get it back :)

Edit ---> well my2ct beat me to it and his explaniation is better :p
[Defy Android Development] woodman:
Thank you all, I thought it was a RIL related function but I didn't know what exactly.

For those which have already tested this on CM7 (or CM9?), is it working well ?

On CM7 works very well.
[Defy Android Development] oSandmaNo:
No matter how I download I get a corrupted zip for the 18.07 rom. Anyone else has this problem??
[Defy Android Development] measel:
I'm sorry but as far as I know bp_panic does not toggle flight mode but only reboots the phone in case of a RIL crash that is only resolvable by a reboot, the loss of data only is not covered here. That was on CM7 I don't know if it was extended here, of course.

/edit: And thanks for adding it to CM10 it is still a great improvement!

Ok Panic Daemon activated! First occurance/reboot within 30 minutes of use! Forgot to catch a log before rebooting but wifi stopped working as well.

Could the reason be that the thing is undervolted (I didn't change anything but still...).

Problem: The necessity of SIM PIN renders the reboot not useless but less comfortable than on CM7. :/

Edit/Impressions: I still got problems with dropping wifi. After the panic reboot it needed a bit to settle but after that (without using USB or Charger) I could DL a couple of apps and I kept trying while charging with USB and at some point it stopped working again. I caught everything with a log but I'm not even sure if it's related plus I seem to be the only one with that problem. ;)

[Defy Android Development] Blechd0se:
Quarx, I may have found the fix for the 'ringtone-bug' with a .60 kernel.

JellyX contained this patch for kmemleaks: https://github.com/Blechd0se/jordan-kernel/commit/15d2403683475f95e8875e0e15222c20f7e212bc

In the last release, I reverted this, but it seems like that its actually fixing this bug

and as i assumed this probably has something to do with a kmemleak (can't tell which one).

I know you reverted to .9 because of some other problems,

but maybe its worth it and instead of going back it would be a step forward,

of course time will tell that (and user reports).

If it doesn't work, well blame me, however I think its much better to work on an issue instead of having a discussion about

battery life, changelog requests or simple flash instructions (no offense).
[Defy Android Development] casouzaj:
Again, 'android.process.media' stopped with NTFS card!

I flash each and every build released by Quarx, but, once again, like all builds since his 11/18 one, a couple of minutes after boot, that 'unfortunately, process android.process.media' has stopped' message comes up whenever a media file is to be played (either a notifications, alarm, music, camera, play store, whatever), i.e. simply all the time, thus rendering the user experience pretty useless. As I know it is due to my 64GB NTFS formatted card. (other users around have also experience such an issue), I'm already goind back to his 11/17 build, which happens to handle NTFS cards just fine.

So, again, please, I beg Quarx or any other skilled dev around, to format any of card of theirs (not necessarily a 64GB one) to NTFS, so that this issue can be better tracked down.

Thanks, anyway!
[Defy Android Development] woodman:
Hi,

I though I was one of the users you talk about but my issue is probably a different one. Nevertheless, the symptoms are quite similars.

Here are some informations about my case:

1) my sd card (8GB) is formated to FAT32.

2) I've never experienced the message 'unfortunately, process android.process.media' has stopped' neither after a couple of minutes after boot nor after several days of uptime.

3) my "media file playback fails" issue comes without your message quoted in my 2nd point. The only way to workaround this kind of fails is to unmount then mount the sdcard or reboot the phone.

4) My described issue (in this thread few days ago [EDIT] on post #15799) doesn't occur with 20130117 sevenrock's build. I encountered it with 20130220 Quarx's build. Didn't try yet with 20130307 or 20130318...

[Defy Android Development] gkkovacs:
I have returned to use sevenrock's 20130117 build because of several problems (laggines, ghost touches, etc.) with the latest Quarx releases.

As battery life was bad (Android OS all the way up, 3-4% per hour) I decided to check it out more in detail with BetterBateryStats (with root access). In the report made by BBS, USB wakelocks were the biggest cause of battery drain, consistent with the Android OS drain shown in System Settings, so I think I can back up your experience.

I wish Quarx would use his talent and energy to fix problems like this, instead of working on impossible (and IMHO quite useless) tasks like the 4.2 and kernel 3.0 ports. CM10 is much closer to perfection, but it seems it's left alone, unfinished. Quarx didn't touch battery drain issues or camera video for months unfortunately...

I sow also this battery problem.

Is the new 18.03 version based on 20.02 version or on the 07.03 version based on clean 2.6.32 moto tree? Because after flasing the new version the phone feels like febr. version, more laggy, slow and battery hungry.
[Defy Android Development] okij:
For me, the 18.03 version has the same low battery consumption as the 07.03 version (20 mA/h with wifi and 3G on) and is a bit more responsive than the 07.03 version. I also like that KSM has been activated again.

I've been using the 07.03 version for 12 days without problems and reboots (which is great for me, since I had reboots about every 2 days with all versions since about November.)

So far the new 18.03 version is working for 29 hours since its first installation on my Defy+ without problems. I will report back if problems or reboots happen, but so far I'm happy with the latest version. :)
[Defy Android Development] diamond_lover:

[Defy Android Development] okij:
I read somewhere on a kernel 3.0 / CM10.1 thread, that the color space conversion (which has to be done when recording videos) isn't done by hardware in the default kernel / driver, so that the CPU has to do it and hasn't enough processing power left for the compression of the video and similar tasks.

I read that the developers try to adress it in the 3.0 kernel which is in development, so we can hope that e.g. 720p recordings will work under Jelly Bean in the foreseeable future. The current camera module drivers are proprietary, so the developers have to use a different (open source) driver for the 3.0 kernel anyway. As far as I know, ATM the recording of 720p videos is only possible with walter79's Ginger Bread ROMs.

I really hope that the developers will be successfull with this, because also for me it's the only feature I'm really missing in the current rom. :D

When using Bluetooth A2DP for listening music I experienced short outages. I found out, that an music interruption takes place, when a WiFi background scan is done. By switching off WiFi I didn't notice these interruptions anymore.

By following that procedure, you flashed a BL5 rom (i.e. You won't be able to go back to a lower version, flashing a rom with a lower BL will just give you a black screen.)

That is not a big problem in itself, however the latest CM10 builds apparently don't work on BL5. I had the exact same symptoms.

What finally helped was to up the BL even more and flash a BL7 rom. I followed the procedure in this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1542956.

I'm now running CM10 again without problems.

Note that in case you need to unbrick the phone again sometime, you will have to flash the BL7 rom again, as the BL5 one will no longer work.

Hope this helps.
