ahha . , In ICS , HWA was the last thing which was to be fixed :D

now in JEllyBEan it is one of the 1st things that is working corrrectly , maybe devs will get more time to polish it :D ( cause its only a week or two when we got the full HWA on our locked kernel ) :D
[Defy Android Development] espaciosalter20:
Do you remember firsts ICS builds??? They had a performance apparently far superior to Gingerbread, mostly because didn't have gsm radio active, among other things, which made us think that those builds was ACTUALLY superior to Gingerbread. In time, we just figure out that wasn't the real performance. So, i think we have to wait until more things work properly to evaluate real performance of Jelly Bean on Defy.
[Defy Android Development] YaPeL:
True, Very True, but I remember swyping in the call app always worked like crap, and now Its smooth, also the biggest slowdown came with HWA, aaand now we have full HWA from day 1, so lets hav a little faith :p
[Defy Android Development] brajesh.sharma87:
Amazing work Quarx. <3

gonna try it on my green lense defy. Thanks
[Defy Android Development] ponzoj:
did anybody try the improved Google voice searching??
[Defy Android Development] sa3e1:
pre-alphawsome

Just gave it a testrdrive on greenlense with multiboot, and I must say it's very smooth on just pre-alpha stage!! :D

Really great work by our devs, thank you Quarx, Epsylon and nabladak, it's just awsome what you achieved with our Defy!

Moto barely got any phones updated to ICS and we can already get a taste from Jellybean on a phone wich otherwise would be stuck at foyo or gb! :good:
[Defy Android Development] pabloltg:
This is the rom in .zip!!

Just flash in custom or stable recovery.

I only packaging, added ROOT, file manager and set permissions.

Remember!! you need CM9 Kernel!

Enjoy!:good:

Can somebody upload a mirror for gapps? the download is very slow from this link.
[Defy Android Development] Shubhamqweasd:
guys , if i want to try this rom on multiboot , with froyo kernel ,

i have to flash gb 2.3.4 kernel on my nand ( stable recovery ) or on the recovery of multiboot ??
[Defy Android Development] zakoo2:
i can confirm the rom is smooth and very usable. i like the new app opening/switching animation, and the new notification bar. camera/gsm doesnt work. quarx, you with eppy are the only reasons i still stick with my defy, and its worth it! thank you very much!

and btw, looks like the cm9 gapps works fine for jb, had no bugs so far!

as far as i can tell jb to ics is like gb to froyo, the major changes are under the hood. switching between apps, opening them and multitasking is much quicker, and plus we get a few eyecandy. cant wait what it will be like in beta stage :)

Hi guys,

I am trying to install on MultiBOOT using the same set of procedures for CM9.

Using Defy Green.

And I am not able to make it run.

Please do update the instructions ...

(i am using the cm7 kernel which was used for CM9..Is it right.?)

Thank you

I dont understand what to do here:

"fix install app to sdcard:

Make dir /data/app-asec, 777 pem

Copy make_ext4fs to /system/bin and set 777."
[Defy Android Development] kelvinmorcillo:
me neither :(
[Defy Android Development] Gafanhotz:
Use root explorer to create a empty folder at /data directory, named app-asec and give to it full permissions. Then copy the file make_ext4fs to /systen/bin and give full permissions to it, then reboot your phone.

To do it use X-Plore and activate the root option in it's options.

[Defy Android Development] nosklo:
Download the make_ext4fs above and put it in sdcard

Then in adb shell or terminal app in device:

You install it wrong way. Igo run fine on my defy. Put igo.apk in igo folder and install correct apk file.

[Defy Android Development] Persechini:
I'm with the same opinion that call and sms related features should be made as quick as possible with higher priority over other features. Whether it's because it is lock or not in memory, if the incoming call is related or not to the contact app, it doesn't matter from the user point of view, the thing is that it is slow, and some people would like it faster, and if we don't have the knowledge to feature out why it's slow, well, teach us! But there is no need to be rude and yelly, no one has the obligation to know everything from day-1

Of course, we can't compare a 2 year old mid range phone trying to run the latest OS experimentally with a (let's say the 2 year old iphone 4) higher end phone running an officially supported last version of ios

[Defy Android Development] tarekh020:
I didn't clear app data

Yes you are right but that's what happened with me ,

maybe cause i restored my contacts to my msn account not the gmail account ,i know i speak nonsense but hey who is not in anyday ;)
[Defy Android Development] aribis:
I really find it very strange when people say its "silly" or "senseless" discussion when all we are trying to do is use a phone with the latest OS...a phone has a set of activities to perform...it should primarily be able to make and receive calls/sms at an instant...period...all things come secondary!

yes we are testing...yes we are facing memory crunch...yes we have some hardware limitations...given all that reason it makes sense for the delay with apps...but where is the priority? if connectivity is not the major concern then i dont know what is? for sure we are not making our phones blazing snappy with disabling the phone/sms locks in memory...ideally they should always be in memory without an option to be disabled and then other things can be worked around to fit the bill...

think about your household guys...we dont spend on fanciful things or home decors when we dont have enough spare cash...we do splurge from time to time...we do not need our Defy to run every possible app to multitask with our limited resources at the same time...

Till the time we make some major progress with memory usage, way forward should be to lock phone/sms in memory, keep other background app limit to 2/3/4 , disable HWA on all but essentials....i mean who needs a poke notification on Facebook while playing a game...seriously there should be an option to allow or disallow selectively which app can run in the background...can we proceed to that logical direction rather than calling a "phone call" a silly usage of a phone?

waiting for the dialer to lookup the contacts for 5-7sec is like an eternity when you are in a hurry to get in touch with someone...and that is precisely what i think a phone is and should be for!

Quarx...this long wait is really frustrating while making calls...wish there was simpler ways we can do it ourself but guess will have to ask you for help...all the bling with a new OS/build gets over within hours and what stays on is this desire to have a working phone...so please keep phone in memory till we are better off...else i will have to stay away from your wonderful Jellybeans! :crying:
[Defy Android Development] die2mrw007:
To those who say slow loading of Phone dialer isnt really a concern, I guess you are using your phone just for games, or apps and not for the basic functionality of the Phone: Calling and messaging.

The Phone dialer and messaging app should open in a second or 2 second at maximum. It should always run in memory as its the basic and major feature of a phone and the most frequently used function.

I have done a cm7 backup with cwm, if I install cm10 gb kernel + defy plus on my red lense, then I have to install the froyo kernel before resotring my backup of cm7? or the froyo kernel is included in the backup?

[Defy Android Development] EdwardN:
Okay, go to google play, download auto memory manager, open your email/sms/phone/contacts, go to running processes > List, and select Always Keep Alive for whatever you want. Then quit bothering Quarx about keeping in memory or removing from memory, I'm sure he's got better things to think about.
[Defy Android Development] Kaffeekranz:
This discussion is useless.

The same way I could say 'hey, it's primarily a SMARTphone, if you just need a phone to make calls, then get a cheap old Nokia'.

Stop arguing and accept it for what it is, there are plenty of apps out there to do this and it's easy to do.

The tiny delay won't keep you from calling your girlfriend, but occupying RAM can get annoying for people who don't see the necessity of having to wait half a second less in sacrifice for multitasking.

[Defy Android Development] aribis:
What SMARTphone are we talking about here? how smart does it look in front of your friends to pull out your phone and stare at it dumbly for at least 5 sec to begin dialing your desired number from the contact? not very smart...eh?

and what better work does Quarx have rather than making his weak links stronger? grow up boys...smartphone is not so smart if it cannot even make calls smartly! Defy is not a slow phone by any means and CM7 has proven that without any doubt...user experience in CM10 is all that matters which vary with usage from people to people...that needs to be tackled rather than ignored for fancier embellishments!

And now let me make this very clear to all who might think otherwise---this by no means is in disrespect to Quarx, he has been brilliant through and through---this is to only those who think "multitasking" is logical enough to keep fishing in muddy waters! Smart enough?
[Defy Android Development] EdwardN:
Seriously, Android is up to YOU to customize the way YOU want it to work. THERE ARE MEMORY APPS that do what you want, and allow you to choose which specific apps you want to stay in memory. Stop demanding that Quarx make CM10 work the way you want it to, what about everyone else who uses it? Choice > no choice.
[Defy Android Development] bharaththeunique:
Aribis. If ur main intention of a smart phone is not making calls but showing off to ur frnds how fast ur dialer opens, then pls for god sake stay on cm7. U will have a fast phone and be happy with that. Do not expect android 4.1.1, virtually unlimited ram space, fast dialer(as if that was a feature) all together on a 2 yr old device. The whole system basically runs on a tonne of cracks in the kernel. So be happy u have a shiny os.which is beautiful. U absolutely have No probs making calls. Good. U have no probs messaging. Good. U want everything u want without compromise. Simple idea. Go back to GB or rather froyo if u fancy LOADS of free ram. And pls let's end this topic. U just posted these long posts twice almost saying the same things.
[Defy Android Development] brajesh.sharma87:
Very gud explanation guyz and now I have a clear idea of what a Smartphone actually is. Can you guyz make a private group and discuss it there, find any conclusion then publish it into tomorrow's newspaper so that the whole world can know about it.

Any of these discussion further will be reported to XDA moderators and you will be warned. So stay on topic otherwise Quarx will never see this thread carefully and can not track real feedbacks.

Question: Can I flash fixed sbf 4.5.2-109-DHT-22-fixed.sbf found in quarx directory or that would soft brick my device?

I think that kernel is better then currently mine. I see double time difference is sleep time and screen on on my defy.

And can you lot stop whining this is just sad. Like bharaththeunique have said just be happy and

Its for a different graphics chip. Its like using Ati drivers on Nvidia.

If Quarx can learn anything from this that is useful to us is another story.
[Defy Android Development] Kaffeekranz:
You don't need Quarx to do it.

Just edit the egl.cfg yourself.. system/lib/egl/egl.cfg.. open it and delete the first line "0 0 android".

The flashable *.zip won't work, since it features adrenoblabla at the second line, you should see PowerVR or something similar.

I did this back on ICS, but I didn't notice any real improvement.

The battery drain that some are facing might be due to the new data connectivity patch.

I charged my phone to 100% and left it overnight (period of 9hrs) with data on. By morning, there were 3 disconnects and battery had dropped to 63% proving there might be a bad mix of faulty network protocol and unoptimized RIL at constant tussle thus affecting battery life. The same routine in airplane mode saw the battery drop at 1% per hour.

Can anyone confirm?
[Defy Android Development] vaibhav palande:
Guys, i totally agree with the fact that Phone and contacts apps should be fast in opening..

I don't want to bother Quarx about doing this even i think what Quarx did by keeping Phone and contacts app in memory was really a cool thing.. Why u people think that Quarx added phone and contacts in memory?? He wasn't asked for it by people, but because he felt need to make these apps faster..

Why u people want this ROM be as intended by google??? This is custom ROM and Its nice to have new better things included in this..

CAN SOMEONE FROM THE RECOGNIZED CONTRIBUTOR OR SENIOR MEMBERS WHO DON'T WANT THESE APPS IN MEMORY ATLEAST PUT A GUIDE FOR HOW QUARX DID IT EARLIER?? So that people who want this can do tweaks on their own..

There are no interfrences with any app, because during clean install I have checked camera app before synchronizing with google and reinstalling any user app.

Hmmm... maybe will try to not install gapps at all... or wait for new build.

Been on the latest nightly for a couple of days now and my phone seems to work better than ever but with on exception when updating thru gapps my phone reboots. After it has rebooted it will reboot once in a while even from sleep. Last morning for an example it asked me to enter my pin code because it had rebooted under the night.

I tried to enter recovery mode and cleaned cache and dalvik after that I reinstalled latest nightly and cleaned cache and dalvik again and after that it seemed to work fine again until noe when I tried to updatea app thru gapps and it rebooted.

Is it just me or is this a current known bug?
