A doubt

hi,

i am currently running MIUI 2.4.13 GB on my Red Lens Defy.

Last month i flashed quarx build and tried it out...but could not stay on it coz of the huge battery drain. So after a clean wipe i tried to restore my MIUI backup and was stuck with the motorola logo.

Then i had to flash the SBF, downgrade my defy and only then i was able to run MIUI again.

I guess this was because of some Kernel or BL version problem...

Can someone please explain this behaviour to me...coz i am going to flash the latest CM10 build again....

Thanks.

Temporary solution to the ringtones issue in 28.11 build

Hi,

Actually in my case the restart didn't solve the problem but what did the trick for me was to wipe cache partitions & dalvik cache, the phone rebooted back to his old self and so far everything is bcak to normal.

No other issues with this ROM for me at the moment.

Thanks!

Hello, with 04-12 zip superuser fails. No rooted phone message!!!. Back to 28-11.
[Defy General] MazaMoto:
While going back to GB based builds from CM10 try below:

*Wipe full data , cach n dalvik. *Then go to boot menu, format your data to ext3 . Wait till it gets u back to menu.

*Go to Boot menu & choose 2nd-init as default instead of 2nd-boot.

*Then flash the gb based ROM again.

*Wipe cache & dalvik again.

It should be fine this way
[Defy General] Lorry:
Hiya.

Not sure if you are collecting information about install issues - But I just installed:

CM10-20120924-NIGHTLY-mb525

kernel-froyo-222-179-4-signed

gapps-jb-20121130-signed

On a Motorola Defy (Bayer camera).

It all went great until it booted up (ok, I guess that's not that great really is it) - The keyboard won't work at all and I just keep getting the message:

"Unfortunately, Android keyboard (AOSP) has stopped" in a popup box - I shall try getting a non stock keyboard into an APK and seeing how that goes (wonder if this thing has a file browser in it... we'll see I guess!)
[Defy General] Lorry:
This could have just been me using mismatched versions - Once I put the external keyboard on and managed to get into Play, it would never work and google accounts kept crashing as well - In the end, I switched to Defy-Gapps-CM10-20121109-without-Voice (straight overwrite) from a thread by AnTerNoZ on http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=30988910 and all seems good now - At least the keyboard, play-store and now the downloaded Root Toolbox and Titanium Backup.

(Damn, I spoke too soon, still getting a keyboard error... I will play some more before I post any more updates though).

Yea, that was my thoughts - I thought I'd tried the latest in one of the few I was using, but the home-button wouldn't work.

Any advice on a nightly and a set of google-apps that you know that is known to work well together, and I can try that? (I have the latest camera if that makes any difference to which ones).

Thanks.

icons missing after connecting usb

Apologies if this has been covered elsewhere but I've tried searching without any luck.

This has happened a couple of times now: when I connect my phone via USB, most (not all) icons for apps that are on my SD card are replaced by the the default android icon (see screenshot attached). Is this a known issue?

pressing the icons does take me to the apps which are working fine, so it's just the icon that disappears from the homepage (they're still there in the app drawer). Stays the same after reboot.

Running CM10 11.18 nightly

Thanks
[Defy General] ppero196:
Maybe they are installed on SD card thus making them unavailable when phone is connected to USB

Sent from my Balls of Steel
[Defy General] ak.pp:
Yes- they've been moved to the SD card using Titanium Backup, and I am aware that I cannot access those apps while it's connected via USB. The issue is the missing icons which are still missing even after disconnecting USB (i.e. My home-screen looks exactly the same after disconnecting USB).
[Defy General] Sleepy!:
How long do you wait for the apps to reload?
[Defy General] ak.pp:
Indefinitely :) They icons do not come back even after a reboot :(
[Defy General] Sleepy!:
Weeellllllllll.........

I stopped using Titanium to move apps to SD coz that can be a bit unreliable.... The app even has a disclaimer, saying "Do a Nandroid before you use these options."

I also had similar problems, only in my case, the apps disappeared after a reboot.

So try finding a fix, but in the future, I'd recommend you only move the compatible apps to SD from system settings. :)
[Defy General] ak.pp:
Thanks for the advice. The thing is I didn't have this issue with TB when I was on stock 2.3.4 (with most of the same apps), so was wondering whether it's a CM10 issue. Like I said- the apps work fine even when pressing the genetic icons, it's just annoying to have to re-copy them all to the homepage :(

Reg. ringtones bug

Hi,

I am currently running the 28.11 build on my wife's phone and from time to time she experience the ringtones bug.

Does any of you who have suffered from it flashed the 5.12 build and can report whether this bug still exist or not?

Thanks!

Hi,

Most of the launchers have an option to "restart" (just the launcher, not the phone) and in most cases it helps to do some order in things that got a little out of hand... try it.

Hi,

I saw this bug as well on the 17/11 build with a 245kb MP3 (128Kb/s CBR) file, converting

it to a 131kb ogg (80 Kb/s CBR) file seemed to solve the problem for now. If its really a

fix or not, I do not know, I got the inspiration from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=35039744&postcount=13513

Maybe this git commit will fix it in the next image: https://github.com/Quarx2k/jordan-kernel/commit/de0bb0defec6a4d2c17d09cd637cb2ab47d5c318

[Defy General] Lorry:
Started from scratch.

I started from scratch with the Defy in the end... It also eventually solved my problem with /cache/recovery as well which was fixed when I installed the 2ndinit stuff.

Installed the 2.51 image with RSD Lite

Rooted with Superoneclick

Installed SndInitDefy_2.3.apk

... Recovery

Wiped /data and /cache

Installed CM10-20121205-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip

Installed Defy-Gapps-CM10-20121109-without-Voice.zip

Wiped battery stats etc.

And now it's all good and stable, all the buttons work, the camera works and it's not crashed at all yet, despite me being pretty horrible to it.

I think I have clicked Thanks a few times, but thanks anyone I missed :)
[Defy General] desihu:
Just unbricked my green defy using the common steps mentioned above. However in my case I had ran out of battery totally and had to revert to McGyver guide to charge battery directly from the PC usb cable, though I tried charging it normally via charger and also keep it on PC usb for charging for almost 12 hours, but asa it used to charge to a minimum, the bootscreen used to lighup eating \back the battery. Anyhow the McGyver method worked for me and I'm back on Quarx 18 Nov JB, as it gives the best battery backup to me.

Dunno much about the latest Defy gapps and the changelog and would stick to the minimum gapps by Quarx
[Defy General] gyorgyszemok:
Hello, I need some support on my MB525 BAYER Defy. I try to install Cyanogenmod 10 over CM 7 with these steps:

-Wipe data

-Install gb kernel

-install mb526 cm10 quarx

-install battery fix

-install gapps

-wipe cache

-wipe dalvik

-reboot

Aaaand I get boot loop! :( I also tried installing it over CM9: same outcome. I also tried installing cm10 first, and kernel later.

Why searching, i found nothing, but i have 2 questions now:

Why do i get bootloop?

What is 2nd init build / 2nd boot build? (I haven't found an answer to this question either.)

im pretty sure i did NOT install the 2nd boot build, but one from here from quarx's website: /cm10-nightly-defy+/
[Defy General] sergio_sos:
You should try either the 18/11 build or the 5/12 build. No need to install gb kernell. And you need to be "sure" what you are installing.
[Defy General] gyorgyszemok:
Ok. How do I know which build is 18/11, or 5/12? What does that mean? I haven't found any information only about this stuff!

Edit.. ok 18/11 and 5/12 were stupid questions :D But now, please tell me what is 2nd boot build? Will it go on my Defy BAYER Red Lens?

edit: I tried to flash CM 7.2 back, Now it hangs @ Google logo :( What happened?

edit2: i can't wipe dalvik cache?
[Defy General] sergio_sos:
Why are you trying to go back to CM7.2? Just read the tutorial and try to make a correct install of CM10.

As I said before, I recommend 18/11 build because on 5/12 I had huge battery drain. But you can try either build.

Follow the instructions and you will be just fine. Try CM10! :cowboy:

Wifi

Hi, I am on 18/11 build. I tried all builds but I had a really huge battery drain on 5/12 and no fix was a solution.

I am happy with 18/11 build, but my wifi connection stops randomly. Most of the time I can read 3 emails and update an app and that's it.

I have to disconnect and reconnect, and it's working again. But only for a few minutes. Only sometimes I can have a connection for over 15 min.

So I searched for some fix, but all I found was for pre-2nd boot builds. Some fixes were to modify some lines in build.prop but I cannot find those lines. Should I add any lines? What can I do to stop this annoying disconnections?

Can't get 2ndInit roms to work

Hi all,

I have a green lens Defy (MB525). I can't get any of the 2ndInit roms to work. I have followed the instructions in the FAQ to the letter - (factory reset/data wipe, clear cache & dalvic, flash rom, clear cache & dalvic again). I get reboots whenever a new app is installed and whenever an app is run for the first time. Also random reboots at any time. When I revert back to the pre-2ndInit builds (24/9) everything is fine.

Any ideas?
[Defy General] krestian:
Try and check your VSEL values, up them up a bit (say, 2 points for each clock value) and try again. If that doesn't work, up them up 1 point each. May take some trial and error until you find the values that fit you best. Remember to scroll to the bottom and tap on "save", otherwise your settings won't take!

Also, make sure you set your governor to interactive in Recovery. When Android boots, go to Settings/ Performance and set it to Interactive there as well, click on "Set at start" (translated). Good luck!

Steps for moving from CM 7.1 to CM 10 defy

Hi,

I have CM 7.1 in my defy. For updating to CM 10 is the below steps corrects

1. Factory wipe

2. Cache wipe

3. Install CM 10 from sd card

4. Install Gapps

Doubts i am having are should i install any kernel for CM 10 as i am currently using CM 7.1?

What is 2ndBoot Should i install any kernel for 2ndBoot is it necessary for CM 10.

Thanks,

Praveen
[Defy General] bharathexe:
Hi Praveen,

There is no need to install any kernel for CM10 latest builds explicitly. The ROM zip which u flash itself will have the latest kernel.

2ndBoot builds are those which have the custom kernel (due to which we have a common ROM zip for both Defy and Defy+) by Quarx

The quarx2k.ru site is currently down. So u can get the ROM zips from the mirror sites given in the OP of the Development thread.

Enjoy the Jelly Bean experience ... :D

[Defy General] casouzaj:
Would you mind telling us if your microSD card is formatted to NTFS? If so, this is what happens to me, and I've been reporting this major bug in Quarx's dev thread many times since his 11/18 build, but have got no solutions so far, except going back to his 11/17 build, which doesn't have this bug, because I intend to keep my card formatted to NTFS.

Just my 2 cents...

Yep NTFS card, so im guessing that the rom/Defy is somehow incompatable?

Hey,

I tried to make a backup of my rom with clockwork recovery.

I told him to make a backup and then my smarthphone restarted.

Should I wait? or can i restart it?

Is it dangerous to make a update without having a backup? I could just use any other rom if something goes wrong?
[Defy General] ToTTenTranz:
I'm on Quarx's 31/12 ROM and I can't get any sound at all during calls - no sound coming to the earpiece or the loudspeaker, no sound going through the microfone to the other caller as well. It's pretty frustrating since I can't use the phone as a.. phone.

This first happened when I installed Negan1911's ROM. I thought that maybe going back to Quarx's ROM would solve the issue, and it didn't.
[Defy General] casouzaj:
The problem, as shown by logcat, is that the card, although being mounted, is assigned a wrong volume ID by the system (-1), but Android takes that value as a faulty card. You see, this issue was identfied and patched by ast March, still on ICS. Jellybean seems to have "inherited" them. The kind of proof is that Quarx 11/17 build handles my 64GB NTFS card just flawlessly. My guess is that from his 11/18 build onwards, those patches got lost somehow. Perhaps Quarx used a different branch whilst syncronizing with some CM updates. But it is just a guess. I really don't know Android that well.

[Defy General] ToTTenTranz:
I'm actually using a Defy with a replaced earspeaker from the K850. It's completely different from when the previous earspeaker died.

By then, only the earspeaker wouldn't work and the mic for outgoing voice would work as well as the loudspeaker during calls.

Right now, none of those things are working during calls. This is definitely not hardware because the loudspeaker works fine when the phone rings, and it doesn't work during voice calls.

Solved:

- Erase all data

[Defy General] corrinti:
You need to replace the files you've changed with battery fix back with defy+ files, taken from original sbf or zip for defy+

Unfortunately, all ready zips I know change files to defy battery specification (red lens battery fix, walter battery updater)

Reflashing 2nd boot build will not help as it doesn't change these files - just keep the ones you already have in your phone (that's why it is universal for defy and defy+)

Only flashing older 2ndinit builds could help (or CM7, 9 defy+ sbf)
