Ah, thank you for the detailed technical explanation ... :D

Usually, I solved this problem by 'grounding' myself (e.g: by my barefoot touching the floor, or touching the metal part of my PC case) ... :D

I will try to find a data cable with ferrite core bead ... Thanks.
[Defy General] EricUtah:
Ya, my explanation was a little more drawn out than necessary. In short, it's mostly ripple and noise in the DC voltage from the power supply. The better quality ones have capacitors/filters that reduce this. You might find that just using another charger will fix the problem.

USB tethering

Hi everyone, can anyone tell me if USB tethering works with the latest 2ndinit builds, running the 18 Nov build...

I'm using windows 8 and to be perfectly honest I don't use the tethering much so I cannot remember what build it last worked with on windows 7...

Maybe if someone can confirm it works on Windows 7 and/or 8 or not, that would be great...

I have installed all the latest drivers from motorola's web site.

Thanks in advanced...

When I activate the tether windows plays a sound, but no connection appears, nothing, the first time it did install a modem of some sort but it's nowhere to be found...
[Defy General] wanxpy:
i did exactly everthing in the first post. but:

-home button doesn't work.

-play store doesn't work. ("Error retrieving iformation from server. [RH-01] ")

-google sync doesn't work. ("Unfortunately Gmail has stopped", "Unfortunately talk has stopped" ...)

-lockscreen doesn't work.

- browser doesn't work.

and what is 2ndBoot ?

can you help me ?
[Defy General] corrinti:
But what exactly did you make? And what have you installed? :D
[Defy General] wanxpy:
was using update-cm-7.1.0-jordan-signed.zip and have red lens. then downloaded "CM10-20120924-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip" , "gapps-jb-20121122" and "RedLensBatteryFix_Working" . afterthat followed this:

" For MB526 and PRE 2ndBoot Builds

1) Go to Custom Recovery.

2) Wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache and go to advanced ► Wipe dalvik.

3) Go to Install zip from sdcard ► Choose zip from sd card.

4) Flash gb Kernel (JUST FOR DEFY RED LENS USERS).

5) Flash CM10-2012xxxx-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip.

6) Flash Gapps.

7) Flash Battery fix (only for red lens)

8) Wipe Cache and Dalvik again (recommended).

9) Restart."
[Defy General] bone101:
nearly same here

maybe error in zip file

MB525 red lense
[Defy General] oliyoup:
I am like you...

I was on CM10-20121118-NIGHTLY-mb526 everything was fine until I flash the last nightly.

I have lost my google account on my defy, so i decided to flash the gapps. But it was the same.

I went back to the 20121118 Nightly with wipe cache and dalvik but it did not work.

So i have done Wipe data/factory reset and reflash the nightly 28 with gapps...

And now I am like wanxpy:

- home button doesn't work.

- play store doesn't work.

- google sync doesn't work.

- lockscreen doesn't work.

- browser doesn't work.

And I did not make backup.....

Edit:

And I have no Keyboard!
[Defy General] corrinti:
Well, you haven't answered my question :D

If you've flashed 2ndboot build (I just wanted the exact file date) then no battery fix or kernel flashing required.

If you did it just go to CWM, flash CM10 again, flash jb gapps, wipe dalvik and cache and reboot. If google account problem persists (might be because of not enough system space) go toCWM again, flash jb gapps again and wipe cache and dalvik cache.

If you've flashed one of 2ndinit builds, then just flash jb gapps with wiping caches.

For you both: try this gapps - uninstall some system apps you do not need with this installer - you probably have not enough space on your system partition
[Defy General] wanxpy:
oh i told everything what i do :/ and i don't even know meaning of 2ndboot :( i am trying JellyBean MultiPack++ now.
[Defy General] j16sdiz:
2nd boot is custom kernel.

One build work for green and red, 525 and 526.

Try it, most of us are on it. You will feel less lonely.

[Defy General] wanxpy:
and it WORKS !!! Thank you very much! but the phone reboots randomly and google play store disappeared ?!
[Defy General] corrinti:
As I wrote I just wanted CM10 zip file date in its name, to find out whether it's 2ndboot or 2ndinit build

please get into terminal and write a command (I'm not sure now which format is correct)

df -s /system

or

df /s /system

(mind spaces after 'df' and 'xs')

and give your results, which are system partition size and used space

Also have you installed GooglePlay from a gapps I linked to?
[Defy General] oliyoup:
I never had problem before with memory space.

I have made a data wipe and I installed the 18 nightly with the gapps 2012.10.11, and now it is less worse, the play store, the keyboard and google sync work, but:

- home button still doesn't work.

- lockscreen works one time after the reboot.

- browser still doesn't work.
[Defy General] corrinti:
Install last nightly (28/11)

Also try gapps with AROMA installer from a link above
[Defy General] oliyoup:
But I had all these problems when I installed the last nightly (28/11), so I hesitate to reflash it...
[Defy General] corrinti:
Your choice, just look here (redownload. check MD5sum) and check your system partition free space to be sure
[Defy General] 3ze:
Hi all, I introduce myself as a person who follows the Defy scene for almost 3 months.

Now the problem, as corrinti and others advise: IT'S ALREADY SAID THAT NEWEST BUILDS HAVE /SYSTEM SPACE LIMITATION.

So don't install normal gapps because you will run into a full /system partition.

If you don't know what I'm talking about or even dont know what linux command "df" means, just:

-make backup

-reflash phone with RSD lite

-install cm10

-install minimal gapps

-restore backup

-go play store and install as you want but dont play with .zips because they will full your /system partition

-Enjoy CM10

-and most important: read before posting.

That being said, Thank You Quarx for your work.
[Defy General] oliyoup:
So I reflash the 28 Nightly, at the first boot everything worked except google apps.

I have reflash gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip and after two failures during the google account opening, everything is ok.

Thank you for trying to solve my problem.

I never had problem with normal gapps, it was working until now.

Here is what I have with df -s /system:

Size: 325M

Used: 312M

Free: 12M

Blksize: 1024
[Defy General] 3ze:
Ok, so you made room for gapps? because I remember me doing a fresh install and trying to flash normal gapps and my /system ran out of space... It was on 11/18 so probably your install is not OK or luckily 28 Nightly has more room for normal gapps. I think the problem is that install script just don't fail in case of system space full, it simply finish and doesn't copy some files. Check your phone's /system folder and compare it with the included in the gapps zip, probably something is missing on your phone. Sorry for my last post, if you know what df is, then you can ignore it :)

EDIT: Also check md5 sum on your cm10_2811 zip file. It may be corrupted while downloading to your computer.

EDIT2: I just realize 1128 is lighter than 1118, so probably nothing wrong with your free space.

a few problems

Hi guys i m a noob. I have a mb525 red lens. My pc running windows 7 and i got a few problems after flashing cm10

I've followed instructions of

1. wipe/factory reset

2. installed CM10-20121128-NIGHTLY-mb526

3. wipe cache and dalvick cache

4. installed gapps-jb-4.2.1-20121129-signed

5. wipe cache and dalvick cache again

Im on cm10 now and i got the following problems

1. Sdcard storage is not detect by pc via stock usb cable. I tried reinstalling latest usb drivers. At some point mtp usb device failed to install:crying:

2. Browser won't open. It gives a white flash and back to app drawer:crying:

3. Cant get on Google play store. error retrieving information from server [rh-01] I tried clearing cache for Google play app and the Play Service.:(

4. How can i install twrp 2.11 over the JB recovery? I asked because i have a twrp backup that i guess only twrp could read. i wanna go back if nothing works

I've been looking at the problems all day and pulling out my hair.. Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Defy General] 3ze:
You installed wrong gapps, thats for cm10.1 and not tested on 4.1.2, repeat the process to make a fresh install this time with correct gapps. I suggest you to use Quarx's minimal and if your phone is ok then feel free to experiment with others.
[Defy General] Cobbi:
solved! ^^

I repeated the process with this minimal quarx2k.ru/gapps-jb-20120726-minimal.zip

now i can sign into play store, use browser and get my pc to detect my usb storage Amg you are amazng thank you so much!:victory:

Since i dont know what other gapps would actually work im going to stick to this minimal unless you suggest! Thanks again! ;)
[Defy General] AnTerNoZ:
if u look on rootzwiki u see that 4.2 Gapps not work on 4.1 http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps but the package from yesterday is completely lost, very mysterious ^^
[Defy General] sergio_sos:
Thank you, it really helped me a lot
[Defy General] 3ze:
You're welcome ;), actually the difference with minimal and others is the content, with quarx's minimal you put in /system partition the minimun google apps to boot up correctly (in consecuence you save /system space, really a problem today). You can check what's in there by openning the zip and navigating to /system/app.

Others gapss working with CM10 28/11 for defy are AnTerNoZ one's (optimized for defy) and those starting with "gapps-jb-XXXXXXXX-signed" from http://goo.im/gapps/

good luck!

Today I wanted to update my defy to latest Quarx version (already done many times),

but when I reboot into Recovery mode the cellphone reboot into normal mode..

So I try to reinstall 2nd Init (from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1032212).

But now at the startup, after the blue led my Defy remain on "Google" screen!! How can I fix it??

Thanks a lot.

Sorry for my poor english,

[Defy General] Hider141:
It's been said already many times here or on the CM10 thread:

don't install 2nd init if you're already on a Custom ROM

. It will screw things up and as far as I know you have to start from scratch.

I'm not sure if now you just have to wipe data/factory reset and install the latest nightly again, or if you have to flash an official Full SBF, root, 2nd init, CM10, gapps.
[Defy General] mindugo:
I have exactly the same problem. I'm using Quarx's PRE-2ndBoot 2012-09-12 CM10 build on red lens Defy with JB kernel. I've tried flashing different 2-ndBoot builds (2012-11-28, 2012-11-18, 2012-11-17) with full wipes before and after, but the phone gets into bootloops each time - Motorola logo is displayed for a few seconds, blue led, red led, Moto logo disappears, blank screen with red led for 15 seconds or so, auto-reboot and everything starts from the beginning. I can enter Boot Menu on blue led and Custom Recovery works too. After I restore full pre-2ndBoot nandroid backup, the phone works without any problems.

Any ideas what could be wrong here? Thanks.
[Defy General] _ossie_:
Have you tweaked your CPU settings? Restore everything back to default / stock settings. Try the Defy Full Wipe (see full thread on this). If that doesn't work, you're back to flashing an SBF.
[Defy General] mindugo:
Thanks for your answer. I did try to restore default CPU settings in boot menu, to use interactive governor, to do full wipe in Stock Recovery, to do system, data and cache wipe with Defy Ultimate Wipe - nothing helps. One more strange thing is that file system format to ext4 or ext3 doesn't seem to work in boot menu (2.1-beta).

I checked bootloader version with DefyBL_SEE_and_Root tool posted in this thread - it shows BL3. I've never flashed full SBF with GB rom. All custom ROMs with GB kernel have been working fine so far (MS2Ginger, CM9, CM10, etc.) except CM10 2nd-Boot builds. Is there any reason why flashing full SBF could help in this case?

Stuck on Boot

Hi.

I was running 28th Nov build on my Defy Green Lens and chose to flash the 4th Dec build. As usual, I cleared the cache and the Dalvik and then installed the zip.

However, midway through the installation, the phone decided to reboot on its own! :(

Now it won't get past the Google logo (no bootloop, it just won't stop showing the logo). No LED fires up and hence I'm unable to enter the recovery. I tried holding the down vol and then pressing power. It did't help.

Can anyone help me out with this?
[Defy General] MazaMoto:
Can you try setting the bootmenu to 2nd-boot before flashing the new builds? I am not sure if it will help, but just a try.

---------- Post added at 12:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 AM ----------

Can you go into stock recovery atleast? By holding power+ vol. up key i guess. This way atleast you can flash stock sbf?

UPDATE: I followed through with the guide given above and successfully installed 2init's apk and got it to run. However the BLUE LED for custom recovery didn't lighten up. So I'm stuck at step 20 of the guide. Help:confused:?

PS: Calls, Messages, etc are working fine
[Defy General] corrinti:
Have you installed 2ndinit or only Sndinit apk?

After installing Sndinit 1.4.2 you shall open it and install 2ndinit from an apk window. It will ask you for SU permission twice AFAIR.

Only then you will have blue LED after phone booting

If you have BL3 then most probably it is your problem because of its kernel. Try to flash BL4 (but do not experiment with others ;) ) like U3_3.4.2-177 or 179 from here

Also you will not find formatting in bootmenu in old versions
[Defy General] vinu.shukl:
I installed 2ndInit Recovery from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1032212

[Defy General] corrinti:
So you could see in the end of the thread that for some ppl 2.3 version does not work. I use 1.4.2 (still have it on my sd from the old times). Try another version.

It is changed to a newer version after custom ROM install anyway
[Defy General] vinu.shukl:
Okay I tried 1.4.2 an it worked. I got the Blue LED.

I went inside custom recovery and followed this:

Wipe data/factory reset, wipe Cache, Wipe dalvik.Flash

CM10-********-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip

Flash Gapps.

Wipe Cache and Dalvik again

Restart.

Now it's stuck at the ugly, stock Motorola (white) Logo and no LED. :crying:

So basically, I'm back to square one. Could you help me out of it?

I appreciate your support bro. Thanks.
[Defy General] corrinti:
What was your stock system?

Which CM10 you've flashed (give a date, not 'stars')

Which gapps?

And sometimes getting again to CWM and wiping caches helps
[Defy General] bone101:
Step 3 is very very important .

Nothing will work without this.

I had all the time bootloops if i forgot to to a faktory reset from stock recovery after flashing an .sbf

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1807899
[Defy General] corrinti:
If you came with 2.2 or 2.2.1 then most probably you will have problems with 2ndboot builds. In such cases 2.2.2 is required (as the one I gave few posts above).

Seems your ROM choice is ok, as newer gives some more problems, but ramdisk exchange is helpful for battery drain problem then (there is a zip in dev thread)
[Defy General] vinu.shukl:
So I have started to flash the sbf again...RSD is running.

Just to be clear:

I should install 1.4.2, right? Because last time I installed 2.3 and THEN 1.4.2.
[Defy General] corrinti:
1.4.2 works ok, not only with froyo but also GB stock ROMs
[Defy General] vinu.shukl:
Okay....

So once I get into custom recovery again (hopefully), then I should just clean and flash the zips or do I need to flash Froyo/GB kernels etc, also?

I'm not able to get "CM10-20121205-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip" to install fully. It looks like I'm running out of inodes on /system when writing all those terminfo files.

Is it OK to mkfs /system with more inodes, or will that mess something up? I've read that people don't like to flash CG39.smg to /system because of the "eFuses". So are the eFuse settings stored somewhere hidden in /dev/block/mmcblk1p21?
[Defy General] _ossie_:
No. Just do a full wipe (from stock recovery) and reflash the CM10 Zip in recovery.

eFuses only get switched when flashing a SBF via RSD. You can't access them with the Android system AFAIK

Hi all

did you encounter, that there is a difference between CWM fired up using vol down during the blue led lights and the second method when you press power button, choose to reboot and then choose recovery?

On my defy when I use the first method I get CWM JB (Jelly Bean). Using the second method I get CWM ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich). Both CWM's are working well. It's just my curiosity... do you have the same behaviour?

Sent from my MB525
[Defy General] bharathexe:
The recovery(CWM ICS) which u get by power button->reboot-> recovery is the "Stable Recovery". The same can be accessed by vol down during blue led-> Recovery -> Stable Recovery. I don't know the reason why it is implemented in this manner.

Maybe u should try wiping the /system partition as well(in addition to wiping data, cache and dalvik cache) using the Defy Ultimate Wipe zip. Then install the ROM. It was suggested by someone in the CM10 Quarx dev thread as a solution to reduce lags. The lack of sufficient space in /system partition could lead to lags. So give it a try :)

Hi people, I've got a major issue here. I rooted and flashed cm10 on my brother's defy plus and ever since, it hasn't detected his carrier (Vodafone).
