Completed one week with JB on Defy

After working for a week on the new JB ROM, I can now confirm following issues.

#20, #24, #33, #54, #57, #60, $64, #70.

---------- Post added at 06:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:07 PM ----------

During the week, since the upgrade to JB, I observed that stock browser is very slow and buggy. Flash support was not there but managed to install it via .apk compatible with ICS. I also installed Chrome, it works good but i personally don't fell the UI to be user friendly, Opera Mini is much faster and stable then stock browser, will now try Opera Mobile. Google Voice search is good feature but again, voice recognition is dead slow.

Facebook widget gets blank very often, probably this is because of the intermittent disconnection of data connectivity.

Another observation is whenever I try to awake the phone from sleep mode, I can see the desktop screen for a fraction of second and after that I get the lock screen.

Playing games is still not that joy full.

Will share more observations..but overall ...loving JB [CM10]....it just need few tweaks and improvements...and I am sure our TEAM will make it much smoother.

The battery seems to be draining quickly with very bare usage , any solution ?
[Defy General] unpre:
the background of contacts and other several apps is bugged (looks like a finger print or dirt, kind of yellow) the problem is in framework-res, res\drawable-nodpi\background_holo_light in.png

Just out of interest, what is your base SBF? Stock or fixed?

I am starting to suspect that my base SBF is dodgy (it's a fixed one as I have BL5) Sometimes I get zero internal storage after flashing a ROM - usually fixed by doing a factory reset from Stock recovery, but this shouldn't really happen.

And also have you applied any CPU tweaks? Because sometimes I have had bootloops on other ROMS which were fixed by setting all CPU settings back to default values.

Interestingly I can flash MIUI JB ROMS with no problem, but the various CM10 based ROMS seem to cause me problems.
[Defy General] corrinti:
BL5 :highfive:

Used whatever possible with BL5 from stock, Chinese eclair, Chinese eclair + fixed sbfs, GB 2.3.4, flashed sbf kernels with BL5

The same with full internal storage, which is a standard, but u can make a factory reset from settings also - works the same way and saves few seconds :cool:

If next build has the same problem, I'll switch to BL6 (have red lense)

Before flashing I changed vsels to standard, so not a solution
[Defy General] m4manusraj:
screen off

This problem occurs not only when using Bluetooth device..but also when using headset to answer..

i still cant find any options for this..:mad:

---------- Post added at 05:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:30 PM ----------

yup..me too get the same problem..But i managed to solve this by flashing sbf again and also flashing the froyo kernel ..

try it once..
[Defy General] major9:
1. Seeing last desktop screen before locking screen on screen unlock is worse is 24.09 compared to 04.09.

2. Battery percentage stuck at 99% on full charge is solved.

3. About a week of usage makes the phone lag. Have to Wipe Cache & Dalvik to get some speed.
[Defy General] DefyMan:
One good is.......Today observed that phone showing 100% charge...though quickly moved to 99%.

:)

can we get contact photo on full screen when receiving call? Currently its half screen.
[Defy General] _ossie_:
Hmmm. I think I have already done that sequence but will try again. Which SBF did u flash? Does it have to be a stock SBF or will a fixed SBF work do you think? (I have BL version issues, so limited as to which SBFs I can use)

Also the kernel I flashed was Froyo 222.179 signed. Is that right?

Note all this worked OK (once!) for the previous quarx build (12/09). It's just 24/09 that gives bootloops (and every other CM10 variant I now try to flash). But MIUI JB flashes fine ?
[Defy General] LostinSpacetime:
Last week I installed the 0924 build on my Defy+ and I'm pretty happy with stability and performance so, many thanks to the developers. They've done a terrific job in a very short time! :thumbup:

However, a view things bother me. First, some input settings don't seem to be stored after a reboot. In particular, I'm not able to set Swiftkey as default keyboard, nor can I disable speech as an option. If changed, these settings are set to default after every reboot. Also widgets that were not preinstalled are not loaded after reboot. I've tried several launchers with the same effect. I've read on the development thread some people having similar issues with this ROM, but no solution was offered so far. I just wonder why so few people encountered this problems because I did everything "by the book".
[Defy General] DefyMan:
Updated JB CM10 on Defy MB525

One more observation...sometimes I seen that when the phone rings, it dose not shows the contact name and photo...and call seems to be coming from unknown number.....though this happens very rarely....2% - 3% of calls...but still want to share this observation with our developer team.

Also, stock browser and chrome works very slow ..... is there any option to increase their speed or its because of Chrome browser which needs higher hardware configuration.

Also...I seen this ROM is not multitasking in true sense....when I shift from one application to another...the first application gets into 'pause' status.....and when I switch back to it...it starts working again from the point I left the focus on it.

Eg. After starting download from the browser and when download is completed till 10% .....if I press home key and get into some other application ...then the download will stuck at 10%.....again when I open the taskmanager (long press home key) and switch back to browser...I cld see that the download is still at 10%. I remember in Foryo..applications used to keep on running in background.

Same issues for me.

With latest Quarx image no live-wallpapers could be set. Uploading LiveWallpapersPicker.apk from an old image (eg CM10-20120828-NIGHTLY-mb526) to /system/app let the wallpapers work again. Thx go to krkdesigns
[Defy General] vai0:
in the last build camera was almost working fine.

now

there is NO 4M WIDE angle.....

loaded rom 3x just to confirm it. even a dataclean/wipe.

anyway.. iloved the GB CM72 camera most..full screen preview. why JB wasting 30% of screeni cant understand.

upgrade to JB 24-9, struck at google logo

all,

I hd a wrking JB CM10-20120730-NIGHTLY-mb526 on defy red lens with GB kernel + battery fix.

tried updating to CM10-20120924-NIGHTLY-mb526, did wipe-cahce and davlik cache and add battery fix (didnt flash GB kernel as it was already there), after reboot got struck at while google logo.

Not able to access stock recovery etc. was able to get to boot loader (vol and up).

so tried to flash stock sbf with rds lite, tried these files

jrdnem_u3_3.4.3-36-1.7_chinese_sign_signed_ucajrdnemarab1b80aa03a.0r_pds03c_usajrdnfryortint_p012_a014_hwp3_service1ffCG33

and

JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1_CHINESE_SIGN_SIGNED_UCAJRDNEMARAB1B80AA03A.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNFRYORTINT_P011_A013_HWp3_Service1FF.sbf

w/o any luck. in both the cases, it got struck at "android" logo and was not going any further waitted for 30mins no luck :(

How i fix the issue. help required.
[Defy General] corrinti:
Hope your battery is still working.

First I would anyway try to get to stock recovery (vol - after power up till yellow triangle appear - have u tried?

Then just factory reset, wipe cache and reboot.

If u flashed sbf without errors then it should work

Edit: Any feedback?
[Defy General] hanu_blr:
Hi,

for some reason i was not able to get to stock recovery (vol- and power till yellow triangle appears). tried multiple times.

after flash sbf a couple of times, i was able to get to stock recovery. did wat you said, and later flash JB 924, got into same bootloop issue.

So i tried previous image to 924, and that wrked :D Dont know whats issue with 924.

anyways thanks for the help :D
[Defy General] corrinti:
Had the same when my parent sbf was China's eclair + fixes, also others had the issue with BL5 sbfs. Changing to BL6 solved the problem with flashing CM 09/24. Seems Chinese sbfs can cause this problem somehow.

If u don't have your warranty u can flash any sbf with BL6 (no return to froyo), as they are easily rootable by SuperOneClick 2.3.1

Video call

Hi i have sum issues to report..

24.09 Quarx's version...#

Well ... as any1 knows skype video call doesnt work unless we uses this Skype_2.8.0.920_v16 ...#

I used it with CM9 i think, and it was working fine but when i tried Skype_2.8.0.920_v16 with CM10 yesterday and it didnt work..

whenever i tried video calling ... i could see the other person for abt 5secs BUT the other person could only see green stripes even though i enabled the back cam in advance settings.... and then after that 5secs it would close by itself or restart.... very annoying when it was working fine before :(

Also i used BSplayer to watch movies over LAN at home ... it used to work perfect when i had CM9 on but now as soon it get to the video it closes itself... :(

Chrome closes itself when i try to search sumthin

Stock browser also does the same thing

EDIT: i found a new moded version of skype and that one is working .. a bit choppy on outgoing video but can do the job ... but the rest is not working still .. any one have any ideas ... Thanks
[Defy General] killacat:
10.10 works fine here.

How did I flash?

Copy ZIP to SD card

Boot into custom recovery

Install ZIP

Wipe Dalvik Cache

Reboot

Phone Setup:

MB525 green lense

Previously installed: CM10 24.09

Underlying SBF: Froyo Nordic something

Please don't ask me about the exact SBF, because in the meantime I flashed so many custom ROMs (ZIPs via Custom Recovery) like CM7.1, CM7.2White Rabbit, CM10...

What I noticed during update process:

Red LED started glowing for a while

Initial startup process very slow

App optimization took longer than before

Added fourth custom CPU frequency: 1100MHz@Vsel62

Works like a charm so far!

Thanks to Quarx an whoever contributed!

[BUG]

10.10

-no charging when phone off

-video recording fc when recording with effects

-video recording laggy, sometimes get corrupted

+very smooth otherwise, so big thanks Quarx!!
[Defy General] dvenancio:
Mine got stuck on the red led. (Defy 0924 -> 1011) Had to remove the batery for a few seconds. Then it started booting.

Now its starting ok, and slowly as mentioned.
[Defy General] dvenancio:
Took around 20 min to finish the coutdown of apps and then stuck on the 'finalizing' (somthing like that. mine is in portuguese) Had to remove the battery again. Then it rebooted and started finally, but it's really slow. Something is definitely wrong. Thinking about going back to 0924
[Defy General] vpaiva:
2ndboot 10/10 version

Green lens

Issues:

Longest boot i've ever seen (15 minutes)

Everything is very laggy( 2 secs delay)

No flash

Flashing 11/10 right now
[Defy General] farsight73:
- Camera almost unusable.

- Lag alot.

- Opening any app take long time.

- Voice call record not working. suspected record libs files not available/compatible.

- My paid app - AVG antivirus stop working - FC

20min boot(more than 10/10)

Much more laggy, so much i couldnt even leave setup wizard
[Defy General] dvenancio:
Flashed 1011 after 0924

After trying to wipe cache/delvik again and reboot again, this time I got a rebooting loop. I'm giving up for now. Trying to go back to 0924.
[Defy General] corrinti:
Don't know what can cause problems of all of you from above posts.

Flashed 11/10 over 10/10, no wipes (it wipes dalvik itself, as could be observed).

After first system load, just rebooted.

Booting much faster than 10/10, after ca 15 minutes fastest ROM I've ever had on my defy, no lags (maybe first time using contacts took several seconds), everything working without a problem till now.

Red lense, GB retail EU>CM 24/09>10/10>11/10
[Defy General] Deonix:
Man, you have a problem. It should not lag. And it should not take 20 minutes to boot. Start fresh with a recommended SBF flash and than CM10 11.10.
[Defy General] Pacquix:
11/10: after flashing and reboot can't charge via PC USB (battery is @72% and widget detects 0mA charge/discaharge)

EDIT: after some minutes it started charging again, it's just draining much power so it won't charge while screen is on
[Defy General] HytestA:
I have been using JB CM10 for quite some time now, one of the things I did like was the Google News and Weather app and Widget, but since updating from the 12/9 version to later versions this app has disappeared. Didnt mention anything with the version after as I thought I would wait for another version to be released and basically not to bother the devs.

I have searched for the app on Play store, looked for it in Titanium backup and also re-installed Gapps a few times since but this one app eludes me.

Does anyone know how I can restore it? where I can download it from?

thanks in advance
[Defy General] vai0:
+1

also stk not working for me, n 4mp wide camera is gone too and soundrecorder too.

....will wait for the day when evrything comes... coz i luv the devs n there work..... kudos to devs..
[Defy General] Pacquix:
Does anyone have data connection problems when using a battery manager? I started having disconnections with the stock ROM after the last update to 2.3.6 (the first update, 1390, wasn't even available for my carrier, WIND, because it could not connect at all! someone said it is because it needed a 128k SIM and there aren't any from WIND) and I could avoid them because the battery manager was embedded; now it works until I set any app to turn off mobile data when in standby, then when disconnected it can't reconnect, neither to Wi-Fi in most cases, and I have to reboot.

Battery drains a lor without a manager :(

Of course I'm using 11/10 build with the update v2 kernel

RAM and heat-up problem...

Hi guys, after reading the first post, it seems the issue #66 has been marked as resolved, but i cant seem to find the thread about it being resolved... by the way #66 is about the memory keeps getting so low to the point that only 2 digit is left... and if i clocked it to 1ghz max, the phone heats up so fast during calls.. pls help.. i really like this rom thought, because its fast ^^
[Defy General] Gulazic:
Clock widget freezes

Hello everybody,

First, I am fully happy since I have installed the CM10-20120924-nightly-mb525 on my Defy !!! Nothing compared to the stock Motorola Froyo ROM (I was really going to throw the phone in the trash ...).

Unfortunately I have something strange to report : I have installed the JB clock widget (coming with the ROM) on the main screen and sometimes it freezes (time is stuck). In that case it is the same with the clock in the status bar, frozen also. But it is ok with the clock app.

The only thing to do in that case is to reboot the phone ...

The phone is a Defy red lens, the kernel is the original Froyo kernel.

Thanks !
[Defy General] countii:
11/11:

- "App optimization" takes place at any reboot

- Changing Boot-Animation doesn't work for me it just switches to an "android" Animation

- Rebooting into Recovery or Bootmenu doesn't work
[Defy General] corrinti:
Edited: first part deleted, as I quoted the wrong post :silly:

First - lower memory doesn't mean a problem till your phone is not laggy. It means that your / system apps are cached, being opened quicker. Just forget checking RAM level till you have no problems

For heating problem you can lower your vsel values (mine is not getting hot during phone calls or ever). I just use 20, 30, 40, 55 for 300, 600, 800, 1100 MHz and my phone works fine. But the values have to be tested individually - might be even that the phone doesn't let you change the values

Battery Drops

After freshly installing CM10 10/13, /pds/public/battd was owned by 9000:9000. chowned to system:system and now my battery is fine (1 day and going). Before, it would drop to 1% in a matter of hours and then stay at 1% for another day.
[Defy General] el_angelo:
Bluetooth seems to work most of the time. But everynow and then, I need to reboot to get a connection with my headset (p311). I did not have this problem with CM7. Would there be a faster alternative than having to reboot the phone just to reset the BT chip?

gr,S
[Defy General] shinzero:
^^

Good eve, Oh ok thanks for filling me up regarding the memory stuff ^^ umm i would like to ask you if how are you gonna test the vsel stuff and also during bootmenu, I only have 3 clks and 3 vsels to configure from, how did you make yours 4? Thank You^^
[Defy General] corrinti:
Well, I was pretty sure that 2ndboot builds also show 4 values for green lense. Maybe I'm wrong. Any green lense user could help. Or you use 2ndinit build?

But anyway even if you have 3 values then just you can try to lower these 3 values, for example as mine are set: processor frequenzy/20. Change it, save and reboot. Then just observe both heating and whether phone stability has changed or not.
[Defy General] shinzero:
I'm using the 2ndinit build accdg to the tutorial. I'm currently trying the 300/600/1000 and 20/30/58. Would try to call again tomorrow and see if there would still be heat-ups. Thank you
[Defy General] nikhil.t:
Thanks for that

When I go to save those settings i can the error "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped":(
[Defy General] shinzero:
tried the setting but phone keeps on hanging and restarting on its own. currently trying 300/600/900 and 30/40/58. seems that the hanging problem disappeared though.
[Defy General] vai0:
the new 2nd boot from Quarx has 4 values for defymb525green just like defy+....

but i need the most efficient values to be used .....will try sirs 20, 30, 40, 55 for 300, 600, 800, 1100 MHz

coz during my tries for one days... one of freq almost remains less used.
[Defy General] Wen Liangcan:
CM10 9/24,cannot use usb mass storage .When i connect my phone to computer ,it notify me the usb mass storage is turn on at status bar ,but my computer have not mount the sdcard (it also means my phone haven't unmount the sdcard ,because i can use the RE explore the files ).

I'm sure i had installed the driver in my computer successfully ,because usb mass storage work before i flashed this rom.

And, after i disconnect my phone to computer the notification of usb debugging and mass storage still display at status bar until my phone reboot.

sorry for my bad English :(
[Defy General] shinzero:
oh ok I'll try to find the 2ndboot. just for more info I'm pretty new in this rooting stuff and so i only followed the beginners guide of using the 2ndinit hehe^^ Thanks for all your help guys, I'll post my phones status if its ok already^^
[Defy General] dangertools:
I can confirm the wrong permissions and a change in battery drain or at least presentation after fixing them.

When i fixed the permissions I had around 50% battery left - and it drained fast (30-40% over night, empty battery after ~15-20hrs on a defy red lense). There was no change in battery behaviour immediately. Now, after a full load cycle it seems that battery drain is much less - at around 1%/hr, however with sync off.

CPU-governor

I installed the newest version (18.10). I worked instantly but i just can't change the CPU-governer. It says "BOOSTED" and when I try to change it to something else it doesn't do anythink. Also the max. CPU-frequency is set to 0 MHz.

I don't know whether it is a bug or I did something wrong.

Since I am not able to write something in the development section (cause I need 10 postst) I decided to post it here. :D
[Defy General] efpob:
you need to press vol down on boot when the blue light appears and get into the bootmenu. It's the touch interface. Next go into the CPU settings and change status to disabled. Scroll all the way to the bottom and press save

Press reboot, and then you will have more than 300MHZ/0Mhz :)
[Defy General] EldonTyrell:
I think some of the battery and lag issues are ksm, zRAM, and purging assets. Using one of these options or any combination reduced performance and occasionally resulted in severe lags reboots/freezes for me. I think 16 bit transparency still has benefits. Here is my battery since unplugging after work yesterday:

Some regular use in afternoon and evening, then sitting on the table for the night. Smartass, sio, 16 bit trans, WiFi on the whole time.

Some bugs to report

Some issues on CM10 20120924 on my red lens MB525 :

- Clock widget (and time info in status bar) freezing (randomly ...)

- Countdown in the Clock app freezing before the end

- Sometimes custom ringtones are not applied

- Sometimes custom pictures for contacts shown with delay when incoming call

- Often laggy when launching apps like sms/mms (takes time to associate phone numbers to address book contacts for instance)

All the rest seems to work fine !!!

Phone : MB525 red lens

Kernel : 2.6.32.9 gb08c3c8 (stock)

ROM : CM10-20120924-NIGHTLY-mb525
[Defy General] fairxda:
Changed from the CM10 20120924 to the 20121018 rom with kernel-update from 20121021.

Only one bootloop after install. Then fast booting.

As recommended no "purge of assets" but KSM enabled and zRam = 10%.

USB-Mass-Storage works not automtically but manually in the settings.

Then after reeboot it works automatically again.

Sometimes 2G/3G and wlan abort; then only reboot helps.

Using SetVsel to overclocking and to undervolting i had to clear data in settings-apps; then

SetVsel works again.

Hi Guys,

Just wanted to check , with the latest build is there a problem with usb connectivity with in portal and tools mode, or is that a problem with my computer
[Defy General] Spidinator:
After running Quarx new build for 2 days with no problems with the 10/21 kernel update today my Defy Red Lense just started getting slow and laggy and eventually just went into a loop. I can't reboot now at all. Weird!! I can get into bootmenu but thats it. I never changed anything except the Vsel values I lowered a little bit from the default but that was 2 days ago and it was stable until today. :crying:
[Defy General] Pinpete:
I installed the version of the day 18-10, and day 21 update. My battery is consuming too fast, not enough to last 24 hours without touching the phone. Just put zRam 18%, Kernel samepage merging enabled. Do not mess around with anything else, when I go to sleep and put it in airplane mode when agreement has spent about 30% of the battery, the battery is consuming 1min every 30 minutes, it is abnormal. If anyone knows solve the problem, I thank you now.
