Dock support not working -> kernel problem

I don't use the dock mode at all (no need on either my bike or motorbike and I don't even have a car) but I've seen complaints about it not working many times over.

Have a quick look at logcat just after boot and you'll notice the following two lines:

I/SystemServer( 1484): Dock Observer
W/DockObserver( 1484): This kernel does not have dock station support

To me that means the custom kernel lacks a driver for the hall sensor (positioned somewhere in the neighbourhood of the USB connector). Assuming the hall sensor connects to the system using I2C (as most sensors do) it should be easy to compare the available drivers/devices on a stock kernel with those on a custom kernel (look in /sys/bus/i2c/devices and /sys/bus/i2c/drivers). If you find a missing device/driver, that might be the culprit.

No idea about the solution to the proximity sensor accuracy issue...

I've not given it much thought as I've not had that problem for a while.

I use the 331 baseband on Vodafone with no major problems... maybe you should give it another chance.

2nd Nov gives better battery life, is a bit more stable, adds live wallpapers etc... and its got CM file manager.

For me there is a Problem with 3G data and WIFI data

-If i used 3G Data connection i have to reboot to get WIFI work

But its nothing new - this problem is here since CM10
[Defy General] Zuff:
Nothing like that for me.

Nevertheless, I noticed that in System Parameters / Performances / CPU Parameters , maximal frequency choice isn't saved (4th line).

I mean, I have 4 frequencies available 300/600/800/1000, and if I decide to limitate to 3rd one 800, when I exit the menu and I come back to check few seconds after it is well saved, but after a while (maybe after deep sleep?), going back into these settings to check, max frequency is set to 1000.
[Defy General] s_u_n:
Good for you.

I am now on 361 base band and it works better in city - no call drops. I am on Idea cellular network.

That may be true, but I have had this problem only with the 18/ Oct build (which is what I am still using.)

I have always put a screenguard (right from stock Froyo to CM 7.1 to CM10 - 4 September. There has been no issue for me.

It seems that the sensitivity of the proximity sensor needs some adjustment now. I tried using one HTC proximity calibration app, but the kernel on my phone is not supported.

I don't see much point in upgrading to 2 November build at the moment. Can't download and test since I will be traveling soon.

[Defy General] desihu:
Well this time I won't call in to report an issue but actually a big positive I have noticed since I bought this phone a year and a half back.

I have been moving from one rom to the other and updating each new release for a year now, but never did I get a battery backup of TWO plus days. NEVER.

This changed ever since I installed 1102 rom. The first discharge after 100% charging was normal like before i.e. 1-2 days backup. But my second Full charge is still taking me to day 3 with 60% juice still left. WoW!

Hope few other would have had the same experience! This is GREAT!
[Defy General] triovi:

I hope it contain the proximity sensor fix.

Soryy Quarx, I have tested the update, but it still allows me just setting backlights at 0% or 100% :(

Thank you so much anyway
[Defy General] Persechini:
Some issues were removed from the list on OP without fix?

Wifi drops still happen on 1102+update. Even while connected to a power source and set not to sleep (both connection and screen) it still happens. In gingerbread builds (cm7, 7.2 and MIUI) I tested this issue was non-existent, and thou the amount of data I can download in 1 go seems to have raised, since I can download a 5mb app without getting drops now, the next attempt do download or stream anything will get a disconnection very soon, and the cases where connection was killed right away are still present, even just after a reboot of turning wifi off/on

EDIT

#12 CM file explorer working fine now on 1102+update, root access, permission changing, etc, seem all ok, but it's kinda slow
[Defy General] corrinti:
The same for me, both button backlight and CM File Manager which opens terribly long and sometimes just stops - nothing happens in a minute or two
[Defy General] Gafanhotz:
Well, that's a problem for CM Team, Quarx has nothing to do with it. (But it's working OK here.)

And as well, button backlight isn't working properly. Always stuck at 100% and I can't edit the custom levels.

Connection to WPA2/PSK encrypted networks still doesn't work!

Issue started on the 11/02 build. A WPA2/PSK encrypted wi-fi network, which I always connected to without any issues, in all previous stock/CM7/CM9/CM10 builds, simply stopped working. It is still present in the 11/07 update.
[Defy General] dd23:
Why are some confirmed Issues removed from the first thread??? Are they fixed or does someone just think they're irrelevant?

Just for the record they were:

#3: Crash when saving default screen brightness levels. Happens always! (Serttings > Display > Automatic Backlight > Use Custom > Screen dim level)

#4: Random Wifi disconnects when downloading bigger files/data

#5: Mobile Data stops working after a while, randomly

#6: USB connection is not recognized, only charging works. Can be fixed with reboot. Happens randomly.

#7: Widgets / App-Links on lockscreen do not work when using unlockpattern (connect the dots) as security. PIN is working fine.

#10: Pluggin in USB ALWAYS gives a root shell via ADB, regardless of developer options

#13: Home screen is not rotating in latest nightly.

#14: Vibration stops working after some time. Might be connected to #5. Fixed by reboot.

Could the person that deleted these issues please tell us why he/she removed them!? Could we at least agree on just crossing them out, or marking them with a different color instead of just removing them?

I deleted #7 in the above list, since I reported it and it didn't occur again since v1102

Turning off 802.11n (setting ht_enable = 0) did not solve the problem for me. I tried that before.

I attached a Logcat of CM10_121102 (without the latest update, sry) showing the problem of #5 (No mobile data) and #14 (no vibration). I just removed my mail-address, account names, wifi SSID and MAC-addresses.

Maybe quarx or some other developer can have a look into this. Thanks a lot in advance! :)

Btw: Seriously, where are all the confirmed issues in the first thread gone!? Who removed them and why??? Plus: Why give new numbers to old problems? This just confuses people that follow the thread -.-

I'm on the most recent version now (11.02 + update). There are still problems with custom screen brightness levels. When I load defaults (6 levels) and try to save, settings is still crashing.

Plus, there are still issues with the button brightness.

Can anyone confirm this?

I did a clean install (wiped data + cashes before installing version 10.18 + update 3) since then I just wiped caches, no more data wipes. Is that a problem?

Apart from that small issues this ROM is awesome and crazy fast! :)

Won't overclock, camera stopped working

I've been using Quarks 24.09. 4.1.1. version without any problems. Camera worked, my Defy run on 1.2GHz without any fault.

I've recently upgraded to the 02.11. 4.1.2. version and... Camera can't connect. Quarkx wrote it it needs a fix,... I went back to the 24.09. 4.1.1. ... and the camera did not work with that either.

As I was messing up my phone, I tried every JB build, and the camera doesn't work with any of them. Was working faultlessly with the 24.09. until my upgrade.

The other thing is overclocking. I was running 300-17/750-40/1200-60 setup w/o any faults. The 4.1.2 can't take overclocking even 1mhz above 1GHz.

As SetVsel initializes the higher speed it almost instantly reboots the phone. Now it works on 1GHz.

I tried to set it up in the bootmenu, but it reboots well before the CyanogenMod logo if setup anything higher than 800Mhz.

If set in SetVsel, it works on 1GHz, but not higher.

So going up to 4.1.2 made me lost my camera and the overclocking ability.

My one is a green lens Defy. Any help, advice is welcome.

PS: Read a lot, but haven't found anybody with overclocking problem, and as I saw no solution was mentioned to the camera problem.

And yes, I used LG camera, and have several other camera apps on my phone, that were working before. Neither of them does now.

[Defy General] corrinti:
For button brightness, not to have crashes, you can try changing to 7 levels, save and change to 6 again. Worked for me. But though it does not crash, it seems to have no influence on actual brightness.

But as general note it seems that with last update there are many random issues among us. I've flashed last build with update starting with sbf. So just a clean install.

And I have no data, either wifi or mobile, drops. Works perfectly, checked with both WPA2-PSK with TKIP and AES encryption.

But on the other side file manager starts just a minute, and usually hangs when I open a folder and then want to go back.

But I'm too lazy :D to start again, especially that everything else I use works great, battery life and speed are just great. Thanx Quarx :good:

Alarm did not go off - possible bug?

I might, or might not, have encountered a bug this morning. There was an alarm scheduled for 07:45 which did not go off (but I noticed it so my daughter got to school in time - phew). When I checked logcat and dmesg (etc. ) there was nothing there which seemed to have any relation to the absent alarm.

The 'might not' is related to the fact that I have the clock from JB 4.2 (DeskClockGoogle.apk) on my phone. Thus far it has worked fine, but as it is not the stock clock it stands to reason that this bug report does not belong here.

On the other hand, that clock uses the generic Android alarm facilities, so it might just be possible that it did not get woken up to sound the alarm. Has anyone else encountered problems with missing alarms? If so, there might be a bug lurking here. If not, beware of the JB 4.2 clock...

In a possibly related issue the phone did not enter deep sleep during the night because Chrome had a partial wakelock trying to sync something - even though sync is off and the phone is set to flight mode without wifi.

I can set time to 12h with am/pm text displaying (see screenshots), what I can't set is the display of the am/pm text on the lock screen, but it uses a 12h clock. I thought the notification drawer wouldn't display to, but it started displaying correctly a while after setting the status bar (Settings > System > Status Bar > AM/PM Style).

I remember there was an issues where the button to clear all notifications would get pushed out of screen if the am/pm text was displayed in the notification bar time, but I can set it to 12h+am/pm text and the buttons seem to stay in position (maybe the issue will come back on a date with more more characters)

My home screen rotates once set to, isn't this a lock screen issue? I can't find where to activate rotation there

Docking is working correctly again :)

Somehow I can get weather to display for a custom location on the lock screen. I couldn't a few builds back, but I haven't tested it in a while, so I don't know when it started working

How about slight hardware differences between your MB526 and my old-fashioned MB525?

Where are the statistics guys!? ;)
[Defy General] cyrusct82:
Have you tried changing the number of levels first from 6 to 7....save&apply the number of levels? And then changing back If you want and after this change your levels as you want because for me has worked. No more FC in custom levels.
[Defy General] dd23:
I agree, this solves that particular issue (button brightness), but still it should be fixed by quarx. Maybe that line was removed for a reason, so quarx should have a look into it. The custom screen dim levels are still buggy as already explained.

@cyrusct82: If I set the number of levels to 7 and back to 6, Settings is still crashing. The same thing happens if I click "load defaults" and then try to save.

I had huge issues with battery drain because location tracking (Google Latitude) was turned on by default. Check if you can disable it in Google Maps. Plus make sure you did all the obvious things: have the right CPU governor set (Interactive), the latest kernel update installed, screen brightness not on max, Wifi off when screen off. Stuff like that.

At the moment I have a battery down rate of 6 % per hour. - This is factor 3 the values from before.

EDIT:

When I had that issue with the soft keys' brightness, I first tried the trick with changing Brightness Levels from 6 to 7 and then back.

Certainly, this showed no impact at all, due to the fact, that I didn't understand the solution, in first.

But I had no crashes by editing and saving the settings.

As a what for what?? just a bit of web browsing, simalar usage paterns would usualy result in a battery level of 40-50% at the time instead of 14% ( a battery calibration had been performed after flashing)

As i am often away from power at times, the battery life is an important issue, for that reason i usualy have a few official spares, and if i do go away i will put the phone onto CM7.

for now i will stick with cm10, and see what comes down the pipeline.

Sorry, my bad. I meant "abusing your phone as an UPS for another device like a server, causing your battery running down so fast." (= Humor)

Comparing to CM7 - what are here your numbers with a similar usage?

I had only 50% more time on battery under CM7.
