Because is based on cm9 for mb525

Again,only for mb525
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
The last build of CM9 by Eppy works on both defys while using 2ndboot because that uses the custom kernel......

If the rom has a zImage file,ramdisk.gz and hboot files in system/bootmenu/2nd-boot then it will work with both defys through 2ndboot mode from the bootmenu
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
If you can tell me how to do or do
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:
You dont need to do anything ;) apart from making sure base you're using contains the files I mentioned earlier and tell users to change the default boot from 2nd-init to 2nd-boot in the bootmenu...

Hi I have put the downloaded apk to the system / app by root explorer, and then installed it, and rebooted.......

But I can't find samsung start... I can't find "settings-applications-all"

Can anyone help me please? It is very inconvenient if I cannot place widgets in home screen :( Or can you explain more about the steps or by taking screeshots?

Thanks!

Open your app drawer (the place where you can see all your apps' icons), go to Settings, find the option "Apps" or "Applications" and there you will find the "All" option which lists all the installed apps on your phone. :silly:
[Defy Android Development] lscalex:
But in this rom, only three choices are shown, that are 'Downloaded", "On SD Card", and "Running"... Can you please help me... :(

Attached is the screenshot for your reference~
[Defy Android Development] Kayant:

[Defy Android Development] droid_<3er:
I don't get it, I can't get it to work properly no matter what I do.

Every boot it says "Encryption unsuccessful you have to factory reset". So I tried to wipe all from recovery, and reset from the screen, but neither worked.

I wiped all, then flashed ROM, then flashed gapps then wiped again. to no avail.
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
Use the RSD and them flash again the rom.
[Defy Android Development] droid_<3er:
RSD? RSD what? A stock rom?
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
Or do a clean installation.
[Defy Android Development] realityrat:
I had same problem, my steps:

1. Change default to 2nd boot in custom recovery

2. Format data to ext3. (also custom recovery)

3. Wipe data

4. Wipe cache

5. Wipe Davlik

6. Install ROM

7. Install Gapps

8. Wipe Cache

9. Wipe Dalvik

That fixed it for me. Did anyone figure out how to get widgets to work? There's no Samsung Start (only Samsung account which I didn't set up account) so option to delete data is not available. No "Samsung Start" anywhere. Thanks for the nice Rom. Widgets are the only problem I've found so far.
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
Try to put seclauncher2.apk in /System/app with the permisions -rw--r--r-- and restart the phone.
[Defy Android Development] realityrat:
I moved the seclauncher2.apk to System/app and changed permissions. I tried installing the apk AND tried just moving it and not installing and both times ended with same result. "Unfortunately, TouchWiz home has stopped" is all that happens. It makes the phone unusable. I'm gonna try again and use a different launcher because I think this is a nice ROM but without widget support it limits the use of the phone. Hopefully you can fix this. Thanks again for all your hard work.

Update: I installed Holo launcher and widgets work. Is there a way to make the backlight on buttons work? If I adjust button brightness they are on but has soon has you close out of setting they turn off. Its not a big issue but would like to see buttons when using phone in dark areas.
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
The brightness,i think is a bug of CM9,but now,install again the touchWiz launcher (install as a normal apk) and try again run touchWiz.
[Defy Android Development] realityrat:
Tried it, Still get permission error when trying to place widget. Tried with and without changing permissions.

I searched and found fixes for the backlight button bug but its for other devices. Anybody know of a fix for our Defy?
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
I think the problem of button is because this rom has designe for MB525 and not for MB526 (I have a MB525)
[Defy Android Development] realityrat:
Oh well, no big deal. Overall its a nice ROM. All the basic stuff I use works well and I like the look of the TouchWiz theme. Any thought of trying a JB/CM10 version in the future? That would be great. My BL7 red lense Defy is not my primary phone so anything you want try out or need tested just let me know. Happy to help and thanks again for the nice work.
[Defy Android Development] rol525:
Yes,I´m working on cm10 style S4,but the only think i don´t like in CM10 is very slow than CM9 for my.

Thank´s for your help.

Has anyone had any success with after market rapid charging solutions? I see the OEM model number of the charger that came with the phone is ETA0U61JBEGSTA.

Has anyone found a generic equivalent for this charger? The last 2 amazon ones I bought were really slow charging & took over 4hrs to fully charge.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] n023b:
I use the monoprice 2.1 amp charger it works great. It may damage your battery but to me it doesn't matter I'll buy a new battery in a year for $15 if I have too.

It has 4 ports 2 of them are 2.1amp and the others are 500mah I believe so I can plug in my ipod as well

Also bought their 2.1 amp car charger

After seeing this article http://www.androidcentral.com/acces...mium-charger-rapid-charges-android-phones-too last year, I picked up a couple for $10ea. from an online source that was going out of business. They are available for ~$15 today. This is the only thing BB offers that rocks.

For an inexpensive but quality solution, try Monoprice.

Edit: If I forget to plug in at night, in the time it takes me to get ready to leave for work, I am at 90% or better.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] henrybravo:
Just FYI, for those commenting about using chargers higher than 1A (1000 mAh), the stock kernel will only allow 1A of current to reach the battery regardless if the charger is of a higher capacity. However there are custom kernels (such as Perseus) that allow this value to be overridden, so that the battery can be charged with more than 1000 mAh of current. It is recommended to not charge the battery with a value higher than 0.7 of the battery's total capacity. For the stock 2100 mAh battery, you will want to set the charging value to 1470 mAh or less.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] htcsnap93:
It wont damage your device. If you havent altered stock parameters than it wont draw more power than 1 amp
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Araltd:
I seem to remember seeing there was a cable mod to make the S3 charge faster? actually pull in more juice quicker? As I recall you had to modify the USB cable with a resistor in the right place?

I have plugged my S3 in a 2.1amp charger and I don't see it charging any faster than the 1.0amp charger. My wife's iPhone 4S however charges MUCH faster on the 2.1amp charger vs the 1.0amp charger :eek:

I'd like to figure out a way to make the S3 charger more quickly using a 2.1amp (or 1.0amp) charger if that's possible.... but I didn't book mark the thread when I saw it and can't find it again :(

[Sony Xperia ZL] ATRIXXIRTA:
Does anyone else have to wait 15 minutes to create a backup and almost 20 minutes restoring one? It has NEVER taken this long to things in recovery on ANY device I've owned before. I just made a backup(14mins), tried a mod that wouldn't boot, then restored the backup I made(19mins). I lost 26% battery just using cwm. *SOLVED*

*STILL STILL UNRESOLVED*

Also, wiping cache DOESNT work. It gets stuck, and just hangs there. Even when doing a factory reset, hangs on cache wipe. Just wondering if I'm the only one who has these issues, or if that's normal for this device. I noticed there is a twrp release, but I haven't read any comments from anyone who's tried it, so I'm not sure if it would be any faster.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
If you would have bothered to go through the CWM thread, you would have found the solution to your problem. Download ROM Manager from the market, go to Settings, switch Quick Backup and Restore ON.
[Sony Xperia ZL] ATRIXXIRTA:
If I had posted this in the development section, then maybe you could give me a smartass answer like that. But asking questions is what Q&A section is for.

And you still don't have an answer as to why cache wipes don't work. So the OP is still valid with an unanswered question....

Wow! Who pissed in your breakfast today? Just because I pointed out that the FIRST post in the CWM Recovery thread clearly mentioned a problem with slow backups and how to resolve it, makes me a ****?

Why answer a question with "if you had bothered to read..... Blah blah blah" instead of.just a regular one. Sometimes asking a question results in a faster answer than searching. I couldn't.find it right away, so I posted a quick q&a.

Anyway, maybe I flipped my sh*t a little quick, lol. I apologize. I just don't like being accused of not searching or reading. Cause I hate unnecessary threads. Sony devices are different than most with locked and unlocked bootloader, rules, Roms and recoveries. Then we have the Z and ZL, which are.the same... but different. Can be a bit confusing, lol.

Anyway, if anyone has any ideas why my cache wipes hang forever and.require a.reboot,.that would be great.
[Sony Xperia ZL] anirudh412:
I did answer your question, in case you were too occupied with fuming over the 'if you had read' part :o

And the 'if you had read' part was necessary not just for you, but even the n00bs, who unlike you wouldnt even bother searching, and create a new thread with a question that has been already answered.

Anyway, you could always reflash the recovery again and see if the cache wipe works. If not, then maybe a dev can help. Try asking in the Z forums, devs visit the threads on a regular basis.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Kareen:
This may amount to a n00b question, but here goes: After rooting my Kindle(7.2.3), my GF decided she loved the new look and functionality of it so she wanted me to do the same. Hers was on 7.3, which made the process different, but I was able to do it successfully. I've already installed Market and Google Play, and am now trying to remove the ads by changing Dtcp_apk.apk to Dtcp_apk.bat. However, I keep getting an Operation Failed message. I realize this has to do with changing the permissions, but I can't for the life of me remember how to do it, or where exactly I read it when I rooted my personal Kindle. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] soupmagnet:
So...

adb shell su -c "mount -o remount,rw ext4 /system"
adb shell su -c "mv /system/app/dtcp_apk.apk /system/app/dtcp_apk.bak"

...doesn't work?
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Kareen:
And now, my n00bness shall shine through. Haha. After I rooted the first Kindle(7.2.3), I only had to change the dtcp_apk.apk file to dtcp_apk.bat and it worked like a charm. The method you are describing, I am not familiar with. Is that something I do within a cmd window? I apologize for not knowing, I just didn't have to do it before...
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] soupmagnet:
Yes, those are entered from the command line. The first one remounts the system partition as read/write, allowing changes to be made to that partition. The second one simply renames the file so the system can't find it. The "su -c" part tells the shell to run the commands as the root user, needed on stock systems.
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] mrkhigh:
I'm guessing your file manager your using doesn't have full root access I use es file explorer and you go into settings root settings and check them all then you can rename that file you don't have to learn to use adb to do this...
[7" Kindle Fire HD General] Kareen:
AHA!!!! This was exactly what I did the last time, but couldn't remember this time around. Worked like a charm. Thank you both for the responses and the help. :victory:
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] xda2user:
Yesterday i purchased an XDA II, I have TomTom, and a Garmin GPS Map 76 S.

Garmin unit works perfectly on my Laptop with Navigator software.

While at the store purchasing the XDA2 i also purchased the Serial Cable, Part No AHTX2SCN.

The end of the serial cable and the GPS cable are both Male outputs, but i managed to gerry rig a cable to connect them together.

TomTom shows a few ports, infrared, BT on com6, Serial Cable on Com1 com9, com2, serial on usb.

When i try to use Com1, the port is not available.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this ( i cant see how to disable infrared) or any suggestions as to what GPS receiver to use instead of the garmin.

Thanks.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] cruisin-thru:
Go to settings/connections/beams, make sure beams is unchecked. Also you may need to add a null modem adaptor between the serial cable and the xda2 cable, or you can cross over the wires by desoldering , on the serial end swap over lines 2 and 3, in other words desolder 2 and 3, put 3 where 2 was and put 2 where 3 was.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] xda2user:
Initially there was nowhere to untick "beams", now there is and it is unchecked, i never unchecked it, and can't explain why it was like this, the XDA has been acting strange though, locking up, being very slow etc.

I will look for a null modem adaptor, and report any success or lack of back here.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Pc-Mobile:
Apart from the "beam" issue, you must have a "proper" null modem adapter.

It should work.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] xda2user:
It works

Finally i got the GPS to work with some parts from Maplins ( try Radio Shack outside of the UK)

Using the Serial Lead i described above, i purchased the following items from Maplin, the guys there were very helpful, letting me take the follwoing configuration outside to check if it worked.

I purchased the follwoing :-

Low profile 9W Male to Male Gender Changer part number JW57M. I needed 2 of those. (basically two small gender changers)

9 way Null F-F 2m part No VD76. (basically a null modem cable).

Connected them all up, and GPS now works. The resulting lead is a bit untidy / long, but for now i've just used plastic ties to tidy it up a little.

Total cost of the above parts was just short of £15.

Hope this helps someone.

www.maplin.co.uk for online ordering, or 0870 264 6000 so it says on the parts.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Pc-Mobile:
Re: It works

You could have got a very tiny male>male null modem adapter from us for $5.90, or a slightly bigger one from Expansys for £2.94 !
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Jos:
You can do this a lot cheaper.

Several possibilities:

- buy a plug for the Qtek @ http://www.gomadic.com/ipconplug38s.html and one for the Garmin GPS @ http://www.pfranc.com and a short piece of shielded wire. You just have to connect 2 wires (Tx from the Garmin to Rx from the Qtek), and this works very well.

- for those who find the connector of the Qtek to small: buy a regular serial cable, cut off the 9 pin connector and solder a Pfranc in place.

There are a lot more possibilities, like powering everything from one source (GPS and Qtek). And price is a lot lower than ready made stuff...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Romans8vs1:
I normally keep my Note II plugged in while I am at work so that it is fully charged wherever I go. Is this a bad thing to do? Can it hurt the phone in anyway? Can it alter the ability of the battery to hold a charge or adversely affect the battery in anyway?

Any help and/or advice will be greatly appreciated! Have a blessed day!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
It would only affect the battery. It's best to unplug shortly after it reaches 100% and let it start to discharge. The phone will stop charging after it reaches 100% and discharge down to 90 or 95% before restarting the charge, but it is not good to keep Li-Ion batteries close to 100% capacity like that constantly. It shouldn't cause any other issues though, so if your battery starts to go bad, you can just buy a new one.
