Hie guys, my friend has deffy+ and he has successfully rooted the device. Te said after rooting the device, there isn"t any custom recovery in his cell. I want to ask that how to install this rom, i mean through stock recovery or we have un-official CWM for Deffy+

I found this thread, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1778931 but there in no link for "DefyTouchBlack.apk" which the author has mentioned.

Which kernel?

Hi,

Basic question but I'm struggling to find the right answer. Which kernel should I be using with this ROM? I don't understand what kernel's do tbh. Trying to sort my unbelievably slow and laggy phone!

I'm on kernel-gb-234-451-134-signed

EDIT & UPDATE! Why is it that I search for an answer for ages, give up and post a question.....then find the answer minutes later! I understand the 2nd Boot stuff a bit better now and see that the kernel is built in now. I think that's my question answered!
[Defy Android Development] woodman:
Hi,

If you really want CM10, you should flash last Quarx build (20130110). Kernel is inside.

As we haven't found yet the culprits of the "ringtone" issue, just use this one. (search on this thread about this issue which includes other symptoms than only ringtone).

I advise you to do a nandroid backup and also a backup of all your apps (GoBackup, Titanium backup) and then to do a data/factory reset to have a "clean" system before flashing.

You could also test sevenrock's kernel or YetAnotherForumUser's one (just use search function on this thread). Some people found that this bug doesn't occur quickly with these kernel versions...

Volume beep sound

I have a quick question: Which file must I delete to mute the sound when changing volume?

When I listen to the VolumeIncremental.ogg sound in /system/media/audio/ui it doesn't sound like the annoying volume beep and deleting it makes no difference.

I know this was discussed a few hundred pages ago, but I cannot find it. Any advice?
[Defy Android Development] nostupidthing:
the latest quarx build is perfectly fine, as long as you reboot the phone once per day.

i'm testing yetanotherforumuser's kernel at the moment.

since quarx is working on bringing the 3.x kernel to defy, i'm not sure if it's worth his time to pinpoint the audio buffer/ringtone problem, perhaps it's non-existent in 3.x kernel... (just a wild guess)

all-in-all, quarx's cm10 build are pretty much all working, save wifi tethering and maybe video recording. there are some other "features" missing from cm7 but that's general cm10 issue not specific to defy.

p.s. if you find the phone sluggish, try disabling hwa except for "heavy" apps like games and browser.

:crying: Im now on cm-10-20130117-UNOFFICIAL-mb526 and love it. But I still have big problems with battery life and dont know how to solve it. It seems its charging very wuickly, but than it has very short life after some drops. Please, can somebody give me some advice how to solve it? Thank you all very much.
[Defy Android Development] woodman:
Do a full discharge until phone is off, then do a full charge and check battery life again. If there is still battery drops, it could be because of your worn battery...

Sent from my Defy MB525 green lens
[Defy Android Development] 2Pints:
With regards to battery life;

Theres only one way to be sure its the Rom, and that is to flash another Rom, and use that for a while.

if your battery life is poor regardless of what rom you are using then its the battery, if its signifficanly better on one rom, than the other then its the Rom.

Ive been running the 10th January quarx rom for a while, over time it seems to be getting slower, and with the increase in lag, theres also a decrease in battery life.

Hi,

Quarx provides gapps-jb-20120726-minimal.zip to keep /system as free as possible,

but it contains some outdated apps. Here you can download my updated version.

I updated the following files:

GmsCore.apk

Vending.apk

Gmail.apk

and added:

CarHomeGoogle.apk

because I need the car mode stuff.

Please beware that my zip got 4,9 MB bigger, this is mainly due to bigger vending.apk.

You can try it without grep and see...

If you are using Terminal Emulator try this one - and grep the pipe :) :

$ procmem `pidof mediaserver`
[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
No, it just means that mediaserver has not linked to any library with 'pvr' in the name. It only starts linking to those libraries when it needs to, eg. when you use the camera or play a video. It should unload those libraries when done with them, in practice that does not always seem to happen - hence the 26 MB of dirty private memory on my phone. The purpose of this test is to see whether it is this (PowerVR-related) memory leak which makes mediaserver grow to giant proportions or whether there are other reasons for it growing in time.

[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
Agree! I've always been on Quarx's latest builds, but these January builds started giving me enormous amounts of lag after a two days or so, along with battery drain. I'm on the 12/31 build right now, using JellyX 30/12 cfs kernel, and I've gotten almost 30 hours of battery life on one charge (max I ever got before was 17 - 18 hours), and I use wifi (no data plan), most of the day. Phone is smooth, and I'm not even overclocked, just using the default kernel undervolt settings.

I would also install Better Battery Stats and check if phone is actually entering Deep Sleep.
[Defy Android Development] paulle:
i'm using terminal emulator and did as you say. no output.
[Defy Android Development] YetAnotherForumUser:
First check if mediaserver is running (it should):

$ ps|grep mediaserver
media 32487 1 24876 4288 ffffffff 00000000 S /system/bin/mediaserver

To avoid confusion it is better to use the [FONT="Monospace, Courier New"]$(...) [/FONT]construct instead of 'backticks' ([FONT="Monospace, Courier New"]`...`[/FONT]) for command substitution. You can either try to use 'pidof' again:

$ procmem $(pidof mediaserver)

...or just take the PID for mediaserver from the output of the 'ps' command you used before - it is the first number in the line (32487 in my case, yours will be different):

$ procmem 32487

If you still don't get any output something else is amiss...

[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
BBS does work, but for some reason Quarx's kernel custom doesn't store or output CPU usage, but that's a not a BBS error, it's because of the ROM you're using. If your Deep Sleep times are normal and there is battery drain, then your battery might indeed have a problem. I guess it depends on how you use your phone.

I always get battery drops after flashing a new rom, but deleting the battery stats and letting it discharge fully, and then do a full uninterrupted recharge fixes the stats. Problem isn't always the battery, but more of a wrong reading of the actual charge.

The only little problem I do have ist that after some uptime terminal on the phone reports "floating point error" on top command (both priviledged as root an not). But resisting to reboot ;)

busybox top works as expected

Waiting for experimental version for defy without +

But for now testing doesn't make any sense. Problems are obvious like not working wifi etc. our role is to help make beta/stable version of Rom even more stable by finding littlest bugs and problems.

But wait... !

Is quarx going to abandon 4.1 and start working on 4.2? I'm hoping not, because I would much more appreciate fast and stable 4.1 rather than another not fully stable Rom with some new unimportant features like widgets on lockscreen.

[Defy Android Development] gkkovacs:
I agree with you, CM10 needs some more love: video recording still doesn't really work (not even speaking about 720p), battery consumption is still bad (Android System and Android OS are the main cuplrits it seems) and the ringtone/lag bug keeps popping up.

However, I can understand Quarx: he is not working on this as a day job, rather as a hobby. And when you have a hobby you do it for the fun and interesting parts (like porting the 3.0 kernel) and try to avoid the mindless grinding (like debugging battery consumption).

Still I hope he would return and fix these things... or someone else helps him out. Unfortunately I'm not a developer, but will help with testing if I can.

Hi Quarx,

i just installed CM10.1-20130123-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip with full wipe on my Defy+ MB526.

What i found out so far:

- Power switch is not working, you can do some things after booting, but when phone goes to sleep after some inactivity, you cannot switch it on back again (only by pulling the battery and boot again).

- very, very laggy handling!

- Bluetooth can not be switched on (if you try, it will immediately switch back to "off")
