SD Card Wipes

30.10.13 version - my phone seems to have mount problems - any app that's on the SD Card suddenly becomes unusable, my photos can't be viewed (message is something like "there is no external memory"), then sometimes "damaged SD Card".

The card is near-new (32gb Sandisk).

Then half the contents are suddenly wiped (including all my music, and backups, but not movies)...?

720p recording

For those who want to use 720p video recording and original camera app with the 30.10.2013 build use the attached file.

Rename it to "media_profiles.xml" push it to "system\etc" (with a file explorer) overwrite the existing file, set the correct permissions (rw-r--r--), reboot.

Check your camera settings and you will fiind the new 720p recording setting or the original 480p.

Note: The provided file is from Quarx2k 4.4 KitKat Rom.
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
Just a side comment: In order for the 720p recording to work as expected, I had to overclock my Defy+ to 1100 MHz and also make sure I cleaned all the recent apps from memory before I started recording.

I flash this rom on defy ( green lense) but when I want to install some program on phone I see "out of space" error:

for example : bazaar couldn't be installed.Free up some space and try again.

You must have done something wrong when you flashed 4.1.2 because it is pretty solid. I found 4.3 to be even more stable. The most stable and less prone to bugs is still CM7.2 IMHO.
[Defy Android Development] gbossley:
Hmm, lot's of locks for me with the current ROM esp. since the Data bug fix.
[Defy Android Development] frozenwaverider:
Data bug fix?

Are you on the correct thread?
[Defy Android Development] gbossley:
Errm, see post ##17652
[Defy Android Development] frozenwaverider:
Ah, you mean the data corruption fix, sorry I thought you were referring to the network data fix that had plagued other Defy CM builds

Yes, I also occasionally get the lock ups, very annoying, it must be the fsync running since the tick we remove is to have it run only when the screen is off right???

Hopefully Bluetooth will be fixed in kit kat soon then we can truly see what our Defy's are capable of...

In the mean time I still love that I am running Jelly bean, we are truly blessed to have such talented devs

I wish them the best of luck with their exams & encourage anyone who hasn't already donated yet to do so to keep up the wonderful work ;)

[Defy Android Development] gbossley:
So do you think it's worth turning FSync off? Or will that cause other drama?
[Defy Android Development] frozenwaverider:
To be clear, you are NOT turning off FSync, it is DYNAMIC FSync that you can un-tick, FSync will run either way but with DYNAMIC it only runs when the screen is OFF, hence why there isn't the occasional lag/lock ups

However, I can't understand why but it does seem to be related to the data partition corruption

I didn't happen to me many times, but when it did it was not good, so now I always make sure it is un-ticked after every boot, so far it really seems to have fixed the problem :)

Also download & install Blechd0se's aero kernel controller & under Memory Tuning un-tick Dynamic FSync(remember to do this with every boot) it fixes the dreaded Data partition corruption bug

Happy flashing :)

MB525 RED Lense
[Defy Android Development] Nemado:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but instead of installing aero kernel controller and ticking this option off every boot, you can flash this kernel which disables dynamic fsync by default:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=47827999&postcount=1654

I flashed it over 4.1.2 4 days ago and my phone still works as expected. I didn't check if it actually disabled dynamic fsync but I believe these authors know their business. This is, of course, in case you don't want to be alpha testing aero kernel controller. After all it's not unusual to see people go back to 4.1.2 because they want a reliable device.

By the way, if anyone knows how to solve the wifi autoconnect issue, I'm all ears.
[Defy Android Development] frozenwaverider:
You are correct, however... it breaks Bluetooth in CM10 as it has the not fully working CM11 Bluetooth driver,(Bluetooth stuck at turning on, same goes for the OTG enabled kernel or any other CM10.X kernel, you will find that is why CM10 is still going, fully working Bluetooth) also try not flashing a different kernel in CM10 and you will find the WiFi auto connect works MOST of the time

MB525 RED Lense
[Defy Android Development] justjr:
If you use CM10 because of working bluetooth, what's the point in putting CM11 kernel in it and loose the bluetooth?

I can't think another reason to use CM10.x other then bluetooth hands-off call working.
[Defy Android Development] Nemado:
I didn't manage to save a new APN on 4.3 (when I touch save the list stays empty) so I'm "stuck" with 4.1.2, in which new APN saving works. As for flashing the kernel, I did it because I turn off my phone everyday, that's why I wanted dynamic fsync turned off by default. And finally, I don't use bluetooth so I probably would have never noticed this issue if you had not told me. Wifi autoconnect works sometimes but not 100%. It's not a dealbreaker, though.

There's a different solution for each of us I guess. :)
[Defy Android Development] runeupo:
in case the autoconnect isn't working then i toggle 3g off and on. After this wifi takes over soon enough.

Hello to all :)

I bought a few months ago a MB525 for my daughter and installed the build from quarx 20130318.

Now i want to try a later build from this rom or a 4.2.2 rom.

Do you flashing people have an advice for me which build i should use?

Here there is a build from the october 30 (4.1.2) is that less battery draining like the 18.3.2013?

Or should i try the slim unoficial? Which from that ?The 4.2.2 or the 4.1.2. The 4.3 ar not so stable i hve read in some threads.

But as you read my english is not the very best. Sorry i try do do my best.

Hello :))

Thanks for the help . Thank you button is hitten hardly from me :))

I decided to install cm 10.2 4.3.1 .The first boot after my install with the minimal gapps was ok . After that i had a bootloop. A factory wipe in the new twrp 2.6 solved that problem.

The build is running good so far. But i think i could not solve the massive battery .

In the old JB 5.0.7 Recoverey i missed the format system option. Here in the new trwp it is present.

Should i wipe data,cache , dalvik and after that format system,boot ?

What do you think ?

I there an possibility to get the status bar transparent?

Well I am back to 30 Oct CM10 after months n months of playing with various iteration of 10.x by Quarx, in any case it would be too early for me to move to CM11 given I need a reliable working phone + data all the time.

it happens with the 30 Oct build...

SD Card Wipe / Corruption / ?

OK I've tried all sorts of things including what I thought was a clean install.

This is on top of frequent reboots, lockups, and a couple of "battery-out-to-kill bootloops".

As of this morning for about the fourth or fifth time, I've tried to send an SMS only to find Swype is missing. Along with every other app transferred to my SD Card. I have a (fairly big) log I can pass on to the wizards who frequent this forum.

Me, I'm out of my depth, trying to stretch my tech knowledge about android... now I'm frustrated.

Anyone interested in having a look at the log and shouting some (clear, simple - I'm fairly thick) instructions at me? I've just tried to send the log to Frozenwaverider, but it's too big to load into a PM. And I don't see a way to PM it as an attachment, so how can I send it?

I assume logs contain some information that shouldn't be blindly published onto a forum?

Move Apps to SD Card

I'm wondering if my drama is to do with trying to move apps from internal memory to the SD Card?

Is it necessary to create an Ext Partition (do-able directly via CWM)

Does that partition need any other special treatment (A LA "APPS2SD")?

Does creating the partition possibly negate problems associated with moving apps directly to my SD Card (FAT32 formatted)?
[Defy Android Development] coolshahabaz:
ultimate fix fro all

do this step

>from recovery complete wipe your phone using Aroma-wiper it'll also show the formatting option so format into ext3 or ext4....

>after that dont reboot just apply the flash of CM n Gaaps...

I've tried almost all Defy ROM in the past n for flashing I only rely Arom-wiper it till now I've never faced any probs with data corruption or App Crashing....

>window with option will appear use proper combination....
[Defy Android Development] gbossley:
Thanks Coolshahab. But my primary question remain unanswered!!! Is a partition necessary to move apps from phone to SD Card? (If so does it need to be of a special format, and would moving apps to a FAT32 SD Card without a partition cause me problems?)
[Defy Android Development] hotdog125:
You can directly move apps to the SD card. No partition needed.
[Defy Android Development] coolshahabaz:
Nope, not needed u can direct move apps...actually only data goes into sd the APK remains in internal only....

SD Card covered, just to add FAT32 is all good

Question: have you installed Blechd0se's Aero Control App? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.aero.control

If not then you definitely need to!

In it you will find Memory Tuning, disable Dynamic FSync, this is a known cause of data loss

As for speed and stability, I have random problems(but no data loss since disabling dynamic) but all in all it is a great daily driver, I can't wait to taste Kit Kat goodness on my old Defy when Bluetooth is sorted

Screen shot 2 is [MENTION=4984199]coolshahabaz[/MENTION]'s compiled kernel, as you can see it installed with no problems and Bluetooth is switched on, it works, I made several calls on my headset today :)
