I have started to think that its useless telling people to use the search button. That one post u use to give stupid answers like check op , use search , check post #1234 etc can also be used to help someone

And anyway its not like anyone is listening.....

I go through each page so never have a question!

-Simply enter recovery

-Wipe cache and Dalvik

-Flash ROM

-Flash Kernel Update

-Wipe cache and Dalvik

-Reboot

No need for full wipe

Phone LED should go blue and then red and then after some time the boot anim will appear and the boot will take long. If it doesn't boot pull battery and try again. Once phone is booted turn WiFi off and lock the phone. Leave for a minute or two and then you are good to go...
[Defy Android Development] vap_66:
No, those are not stupid answers. Those who give them are actually being kind, because if you're lazy and like to be spoonfed you do not deserve an answer at all.

@ppero196: Nice info, it should also help with battery usage.

[Defy Android Development] vic160890:
Please correct me if I'm wrong. somewhere in your sequence he should set the default boot to 2nd-boot. right ? I mean before booting..

I'm saying this because there are people that are switching from regular builds in which the default boot was 2nd-init.

I did this and I have had no problem at all.. I just flashed update V2 over update V1 with no boot-loops or anything. regular boot time. just the optimization of the apps that took a while. :D
[Defy Android Development] Kyle07:
In my experience the default boot was set to 2nd boot automatically...
[Defy Android Development] G00fY2:
Yes, as far as I know, 2ndboot gets automatically set by flashing the ROM.;)
[Defy Android Development] JustinBacle:
Confirmed.

Did you wiped cache & dalvik before AND after flashing Gapps ?

[Defy Android Development] tronjojo:
is it good/bad that i used that custom gapps that installs some apps in the system partition and some in the data partition? now that there's a new gapps out, is it worth changing? won't i still lose all that extra system space (which could adversely affect performance)?
[Defy Android Development] corrinti:
Just a note which can help many of those having different problems (I don't say bugs which are for all of us).

It came with a defy I flashed with last ROM few days ago and which had problems like not possible to lower vsels (not booting) and was extremely laggy. No wipes helped. The cure came with flashing parent sbf, last ROM plus update plus last gapps. And it turned out that the phone just flies, much better then mine.

So I did the same to my defy with exactly the same result. The phone is really smooth, also 'my' only bug with very slow installation of apps from GP is gone.

Believe me - Quarx' ROM is extremely fast just out of box, nothing changed but vsels, no changes in memory management and no problems after few hours of checking everything

So don't be lazy, sometimes our phones just need actually fresh install, not only wipes :D

[Defy Android Development] FFU5y:
I've not been watching this thread closely for a while (as my focus is currently on the A500 and the Nexus, and this thread is enormous), but I feel it is worth pointing that in the OP there are no actual installation instructions, no link to any kernel, and the text:

NOTE: Froyo Kernel + MB526 or GB Kernel + MB525 Build = Not working proximity.

In addition, the FAQ to which there is a link from the OP both mentions installing the kernel in the installation instructions, and provides links to kernels.

Having the 'Most Thanked' in the right column is helpful (and at the top of the list is the comment by Quarx that the latest kernel is included in the latest updates), but I think having the installation instructions clearly in the OP, and in the FAQ, is probably the best curative for repetetive questions. (In an A500 thread, a different approach was taken: the development thread was used for only development-related questions, a thread in the general discussion addressed general user questions, and any incorrectly placed posts were deleted or moved. It meant the dev thread was really, really clean and contained only clear bug reports and questions about compiling, logcats, etc.).

Don't get me wrong - I'm not wanting to criticise those in this thread who are frustrated by questions which have already been answered a dozen times; but even the search results for a thread >1000 pages long are difficult to dig through, let alone the thread itself.

Edit: forgot to say initially: I'm equally not saying that Quarx should be maintaining the OP necessarily - his time is probably better spent coding. Rather, maybe this is a prime use for the XDA wiki (which I've noticed does already have a relevant page which does get updated periodically).
[Defy Android Development] Gafanhotz:
Yeah, actually the OPs of the posts are outdated. But hell, there are something like 200 pages, talking just about the same thing. Same asks, same replies. I don't think that there is no need of asking it again. People are so lazy to use that search button on the top.
[Defy Android Development] sa3e1:
I totally agree with FFU5y! We should regularly update the Defy wiki page! I check the threads at least 10 times a day, and have my Defy for more than a year, so most of the time I know what to do, but for people who are new to this, it can be confusing...stickies are outdated mostly, and wiki page too. So most of the time we could just redirect everybody to a nice uptodate wiki for Defy :)

[Defy Android Development] trevor68:
Well not wanting to be accused of being lazy, I went the whole hog with my green lens defy. Flashed a new (chinese) SBF, reroot, reinstall 2nd init, and start from scratch. Installed 11/10 and V2 update, and waddya know CM10 loading logo first try.

Not wanting to also be accused of being impatient i tried many reboots and waited overnight for it "smooth" itself out. Heres the result of a fresh start and clean install.

Still no working wifi tether, nor will any app from the market work. ROM itself seemed quite clean and functional, but no tether is a killer for me, that and of course that after being connected to my laptop overnight it had still only "charged" to 40%.

Back to my fully functional CM72 for now.
[Defy Android Development] Gafanhotz:
Thanks! I'll see what I can do to keep it up-to-date!

@Quarx: I was talking with a friend of mine that develop roms for the Atrix here on XDA, he said that one solution to the data drops on our Defy/Defy+ was putting an persistence on the RIL (and it's on/off - connected/disconnected flags). It may increase a bit of ram usage (and maybe battery usage), but should be our last hope to fix the data drops! I can get you in touch with him, as soon as I see him again. But well, what do you think?
[Defy Android Development] farsight73:
+1 here.. wifi tether is the must have in my list.. 2ndly camera/video cam too..
[Defy Android Development] Gafanhotz:
Well, some people are reporting problems with wifi tether (i'm only through it right now...), have you guys tried to instead of flashing the chinese SBF, flashing the Defy+ sbf? It solved the problem of an user here (tnsantos) that was having the "black screen and bootloops" problem.
[Defy Android Development] corrinti:
Exactly some people here (me too :D) have reported problems with last builds, when used chinese sbfs as a base.

But till we do not have to change BL I would propose flashing just other sbf of the same level.

At least no problems with laginess, not installing apps from GP etc.

Well, I used DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-137_ from the list - phone works great, no reboots.
[Defy Android Development] trevor68:
I used the chinese SBF simply because I knew it would get me to BL6 and let me actually load 11/10 based on three other green lens defy users experience.

I am quite happy to try another sbf, but i'm not going to play "guess which sbf". If another greens lens defy user here has working wifi tether, please post the SBF you used and I will test. :cool:
[Defy Android Development] FcukBloat:

High battery drain with new 4.1.2 on Defy+

Hi folks,

I can confirm a high battery drain after upgrade to 4.1.2 (from 11th october) and newest kernel (v2 from 13th october), which I flashed from the recovery menu choosing "Stable recovery". Before and after flashing I did a wipe cache and a wipe dalvik cache and also reset battery stats.

See the attached screenshot for details about the documented battery drain.

For clarifying:

on left side is the battery charge status before the upgrade (latest 4.1.1 build from 24th september). On the right side is the drain after the upgrade. Thick vertical lines represent 12-hours-periods. On the left is the battery charge in %. Green lines represent charging.

I did nothing but the above rescribed steps. No software additional apps installed/uninstalled - just kept the apps I had before. No factory reset, nothing.

Besides the high battery drain, the ROM looks to be with a way faster responsive compared to the 4.1.1 build.

Also a bit strange but somehow reported by others: after reboot the red LED is lighting up and the reboot takes far longer compared to 4.1.1, so that one is willing to take off the battery due to hang up. But with patience the phone restarts normally after this big while :)

Cheerz!

Hi all,

same thing here with 1011 build + v2 update (green lens defy).

Last night, 8% battery drain for 5 hours and a half in airplane mode.

With old builds (before custom Kernel I think), it was 2 or 3% for 7 or 8 hours in Airplane mode.

Except this battery drain issue, last build on our Defy is awesome !

Thanks quarx and thanks xda community !
[Defy Android Development] dreamar:
With my Defy (MB525 green Lens, Quarx CM10 11.10 with Fix from 13.10) I had a battery drain about 36% in 6,5 hours with rarely usage.
[Defy Android Development] espaciosalter20:
Taking about base sbf for flashing, I have to say that my original sbf (froyo) LATAM, gave me great stability through the process of constant flashing. I never had bootloop or strange behavior on my defy.

[Defy Android Development] rahul32111:
hello xda members

if flashing different parent sbf brings improvement, then which sbf version u would suggest for defy+ BL6

Also why there is 5-10 MB size difference in various parent sbf of same level, i don't find any country specific apps pre-installed in my DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-1321 sbf.
[Defy Android Development] turffe:
2nd init is cwm recovery for defy, 2ndboot - kernel. No, this does not mean that our bootloader is unlocked, but thanks for Quarx, as now we can use custom kernel on locked bl,i hope in future Quarx will find way how bypass defy locked bl via custom kernel.

Hi!

I'm having WiFi crashes when trying to watch long videos on Youtube. The connection stops responding, and the activity icon crashes in the last position. Also, if I leave the signal reception area, it still shows as connected. I've to manually reconnect all the time.

The problem doesn't happen with stock ROMs, so I don't think it's a hardware problem. It happens since the first CM10 versions.

Is someone also having this problem?

Thanks

I'll be honest, I've switched back to cm9 also, I have no working WiFi tether there, but phone is extremely fast. I had the Chinese ROM base.

I notice my wife's Defy, which was purchased new the week it was released, had never had the Chinese ROM, and always seems faster another than mine.

So there is something to this, just have to figure out what...

I have no problems with market apps however.

It works on Defy? A few days ago I was talking just about this, that the problem of flash was the OMAP 720P Decoder.
