no bugs here...,only extendet settings not working and defy parts are missing...
[Defy Android Development] cyrusct82:
What gapps are you using?
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
Tejus' minimal latest, as usual...

EDIT: Ended up doing things the right way: wiped all the partitions, installed the latest version and latest Gapps.

Can we have the gpu max_rate option in bootmenu. We need to enter command now on every boot if I'm not mistaken
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
You could write a short init.d script to set it at boot time. I'll put one together if I find the time...

EDIT: Here it goes. Just use the CM File Explorer, Root Explorer or the root-enabled file explorer of your choice to mount /system R/W and create a file called "99gpuoc" under /system/etc/init.d. Edit it and put this in it:

#!/system/bin/sh
# Overclock GPU max frequency to 266 MHz
echo 266666666 > /proc/gpu/max_rate

Change its permissions to r-xr-xr-x.

Reboot the phone, and bingo!

Boy, it really makes a difference in this little beast's smoothness...

Bug report

With the last rom (17 september), few hardware buttons aren't working (Menu, Back and Search) for me. But, the long press in back button (to kill app - developper's option) works.
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
Had the same problem, solved it by wiping /system, /data and /cache from TWRP and re-installing the ROM and Gapps from scratch.
[Defy Android Development] Codeseven:
I tried this and it didn't work for me. twrp nor cwm would come up. they were there in the selection menu under custom recoveries. But when selected, the screen would refresh and not get anywhere. No go here :( any other way to install the most updated recovery right out of sbf flashing?
[Defy Android Development] mohegan:
Thanks, it works for me. Just a little bug : at the first start, the google configuration tools doesn't appear. I have only the cyanognemod configuration.

Open a terminal, and type the following:

[Defy Android Development] bhupatib:
Try with CameraICS+

BTW has the OCed GPU increased the frame rate of the recorded video or is it still 12-15 fps (for 720p)? Low frame rates makes HD recording less useful. I think 848X480 is the best res defy can do with acceptable frame rates (24 fps).
[Defy Android Development] ScratMan38:
Is there a way to cure the "Unknown IMEI" issue without rebooting ?

I'm using a third party software to sync my Outlook agenda and contacts at work with my Defy, and it uses the IMEI to identify the phone ; so due to this issue I need to reboot the phone several times before being able to sync. :crying:
[Defy Android Development] t1moc:
I can recommend Jabra BT 620s BT stereo headset. I've had mine for over 5 years now, and they still work great :)

For the BT issue, as far as i can tell, it is something to do with the way that the BT service "profiles" are managed. Possibly starting with service discovery, and not on state transition. BT devices have "profiles" that define their capabilities and the kind of services that they can offer. Most headsets have at least the "A2DP service" (stero Music playback) and "Headset service" (mono audio out + mono microphone in)

For example - Stutter problem workaround (for my headset):

- Turn on BT on Phone

- Turn on Paired (Jabra BT 620s) Headset

- Phone pairs to the headset creating an active "A2DP service" connection and a "Headset service" connection (according to Phone BT settings screen when headset connected)

- Press play on music player, get stutter.

- Power off headset

- Power on headset

- Phone reconnects with only A2DP

- Press play on music player, and plays fine.

There is a similar problem with BT and phone calls.

- Follow stutter problem work around.

- Make or answer phone call - Headset does not work for recording audio, plays stuttering audio. This implies it must have re-connected to the headset service, while *not* disconnecting from the A2DP service, as it does in every BT headset situation i have been in that worked (PC, Old mb526 ROM, Symbian phones etc).

I would say it is a symptom of the same problem when trying to make calls with BT switched on.

My conclusion - There is something wrong in the BT state/event manager. Can possibly be fixed by ensuring A2DP and Headset services are not connected to at the same time.

toggle aiplane mode once..and repeat with every reboot
[Defy Android Development] ScratMan38:
Regarding this, I noticed that when I switch on the phone for the first time, the IMEI is unknown. If I then switch off the phone and switch it on again, the IMEI is still unknown. But if I use the Reboot feature in the power menu instead of switching off the phone, the IMEI is correctly recognized.
[Defy Android Development] Antiga Prime:
Perhaps on ICS/JB this is true. But on [MENTION=382340]walter79[/MENTION]'s Ms2Ginger, 720p recording works just fine; haven't tested for FPS but still looks pretty good.

Just make sure that when you're rebooting your phone you're in a spot where you have a very good radio (2g/3g) signal, if not, while the phone turns on and can't find an immediate signal, your IMEI won't get recognized. That's how I solve it.
[Defy Android Development] ScratMan38:
Doesn't help. I usually switch on the phone at home, where I have very good network quality, and the IMEI remains unknown quite often.
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
Quick update on my previous init.d hack to set the GPU max freq to 266 MHz: looks like the default max frequency is set later in the boot process, since after a reboot it's still 200 MHz. Had to manually run my script again to make it 266. I thought I could find something like Linux's /etc/rc.local (my main knowledge comes from that OS, and I'm no more than a noob on Android hacking/development), but looks like the boot process is different.

I was thinking of asking a friend with good Android application development skills to help me write an app to manually set the max overclock frequency for the GPU. More to come on this subject.
[Defy Android Development] Blechd0se:
I will add this the kernel control app ;)

I will push the source soon, so everybody can develope/work on this.

I agreed with Quarx that this app will also replace the Defy Parts some day.

As soon as i finished this, i will add some sort of gpu scheduling, so you dont have to worry about frequencies :)

Send from my Nexus 4
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
Oh, me and my bad memory... I recall now you saying something about the kernel control app some time ago. Anyway, thanks for the update, these are great news!
[Defy Android Development] okij:
Workaround when the IMEI is not recognized after booting

I also quite often have problems with an unknown IMEI when using MyPhoneExplorer (I guess that you are talking about the same program!?) and also when using Navigon, which also reads out the IMEI.

Just some days ago I found out that you don't need a full reboot, but that also a so called "Hot boot" is sufficient, which just needs a few seconds to complete. For this I'm using an app called "Rebooter (fast reboot)", but there are also other apps, just search in the Play Store. :)

[MENTION=513620]Quarx[/MENTION] and [MENTION=4855459]Blechd0se[/MENTION]: As far as I remember, the bug with the sometimes missing IMEI is there since CM10 or at least since the first custom kernels. I would be grateful if you could have a look into this issue! :)
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
The init.d script seems to work fine on SB4.3 though, max_rate gets updated to 266666666 . Are you sure it isn't working?

But can't wait for GPU sched, kernel app etc :)

The good times never end when you have a defy, it seems!
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
Well, after a reboot I get a max_rate of 200000000, not 266666666, so I guess it isn't working...
[Defy Android Development] cyrusct82:
For me is working in Quarx Rom.

Even after a reboot with your script.
[Defy Android Development] slimshady76:
We have a saying down here which applies to this kind of situations: "en casa de herrero, cuchillo de palo" (in the house of the blacksmith the knives are made of wood).

EDIT: Just reviewed my own script. Had a capital "S" in the following line, which prevented it from being executed:

#!/[b]S[/b]ystem/bin/sh

Darn...
[Defy Android Development] vaserbanix:
I use the"s" like in atached file and Terminal emulator show me

"cat /proc/gpu/max_rate 266666666"

But in Quadrant nothing is changed

BT-connection:

Same observation like t1moc:

- BT headphones is working (here without the mentioned workaround!), so sending music/sounds from Defy+ to earphones is now running perfectly :good:

- BT car equipment: same sound distortion like before

So there seems to be an improvement as with 01/08 build both BT situations were not working.

Finally the last stability update of 01/08 build: I think 800hrs (see picture) without reboot or crash speak for themselves. :D

Thx for the very good work, Quarx!

BR, Flox

Edit: just clarified used BT devices (sorry, I'm no native speaker :o)
[Defy Android Development] ScratMan38:
It may be due to the Unknown IMEI issue, some softwares does not work if it can't identify the phone via the IMEI. Try the Rebooter app on Play Store, with the hot reboot feature, or simply reboot your device until the IMEI is recognized.
[Defy Android Development] okij:
Since [MENTION=513620]Quarx[/MENTION] said that he is getting a BT headset for debugging the BT issue, I hope that this now is sufficient...

Can someone give Quarx a hint which headset model still isn't working with the current nightly?

Otherwise we might have to buy Quarx a car with BT support... :D
[Defy Android Development] musikusbawue:
Thanks but my phone has a imei number

Gesendet von meinem MB526 mit Tapatalk 2
[Defy Android Development] starbright_:
Sure? This is strange. Headset is a bidirectional connection, while coupling with speaker is just one direction. And this should be distorted and Headset not?

But anyhow - good news that there is ongoing development with BT. So maybe I can update to CM10.2 once too.

Data Bug

Data bug is still here, connection last longer then previous builds, but it disconnects after about one hour or two .. any workaround??
[Defy Android Development] bhupatib:
It's standard network timeout or at least that's the case with my provider - it disconnects after 3hrs and shows the usage summary in an USSD popup (same thing on a pal's ZTE Blade as well). It's re-connection that's been buggy, our phone being unable to do so by itself unless you toggle data off/on.

I'm yet to try this build but if yours reconnects automatically then it's progress!
[Defy Android Development] walter79:
Missing arrows that indicate upload/download activitiy at Wifi and mobile connections: This (minor) bug has already been reported a couple of times. Does anybody know if this bug maybe is present in other CM10.2 distributions too, so that it's not Defy specific?

HTC HD2, Huawei Mediapad 7, Samsung i9100g maybe more have this problem too.
[Defy Android Development] lulli1:
but there are still some devices without this issue. the devs there solved it somehow. engle_mars in ms2 thread wrote, that he managed it as well in the next built. so maybe ask him...

wi-fi problems

So I upgraded the router at home, and created a new Wi-Fi network. Unfortunately, the Defy shows still the old one, and does not seem to refresh at all:

- I can't delete old Wi-Fi networks (there is no Delete option when longpress, only Connect)

- scanning for new networks does not seem to work at all (I have to manually add my network if I want to use it)

- wi-fi analyzer either does not work, or also shows the old network instead of the new

- reflashing the rom and wiping caches finally removes the old network (still no manual removal)

running 20130917
[Defy Android Development] cyrusct82:
It's not like you say.

If I long press I can choose the forget network option. Scan is working.
[Defy Android Development] patriiice:
I had this yesterday at home, after first wifi activation. But now, after a reboot maybe, it seems to be OK. Note that I'm on a clean setup (full wipe).

I'm new on XDA but a huge user (and fan :D ) of qurax roms for defy (mine is '+')

I've tried every nightly of 10.2, I found a common bug - some of hardware buttons not working... and wiping - reinstalling fixed it every time. But this time on latest build (cm-10.2-20130917) something went too wrong (and strange :what: ) that 3 of all buttons worked...search doesn't but working button needs to press between two buttons (for e.g. home button works only if I pressed between home and back button)

Reinstalling for 2 times - wiping all section other than sd card doesn't even solved it.. :(

Please help... :(

Sorry for bad English , trying to improve, hope any 1 get my problem solved

Are you sure you're using the right gapps? Take the minimal gapps from TJKV's thread.

Thank you for quick reply

Maybe I'm gonna skip this nightly. I think my defy+ got anything problematic with this one... :(
[Defy Android Development] Urdle:
Hi,

Here are my remarks :

- Memory Leaks : got better

- Delay on wakeup : perfect

- Mobile data drops : Still not good for me, but to be honest, I'm not sure it was ever better even with the stock rom from where I work and with my operator (At the 10th floor in Lyon, France, with FreeMobile)... a colleague reports the same issue on his iPhone, sooooooo....

There are a few other bugs I can mention :

- The "search" button doesn't do anything, and custom actions do not seem to work [edit : just install Google Search, and it works just fine]

- BetterBatteryStats reports something strange : If I sum the durations , Awake + SleepMode > Total Time... is it normal ? or is there a bogus timer here ?

- Battery is either drained or the indicator is completely wrong (drops abruptly, goes from 40% to "shutdown" during the night, not reliable)

- Random Reboots, usually during high battery solicitation (either consuming data, or while playing a game)

Can't think of anything else... anyway this build rocks.
[Defy Android Development] TJKV:
Why don't you use the gapps for cm10.2? I've mentioned that the one you flashed isn't for cm.
[Defy Android Development] okij:
Thanks for your feedback! :)

I'm not sure if those are real bugs or if they depend on the individual installation. To double check, please install CM10.2 + minimal gapps from TJKF after a full wipe, if you've not already done so.

A short feedback to your list from my point of view:

Search button and custom actions are working on my Defy+. From what I read on the forums, there are just a few people with problems.

I don't use BetterBatteryStats or something similar at the moment. Can anybode else tell if BBS works OK or not? :confused:

Battery is working fine here, I have just the typical ~55 - 50 % drop every now and then. Be sure that you keep your Defy on the charger for about one more hour when it already says that it's at 100% because this makes sure that the battery is really fully charged.

With CM10.2 I don't get random reboots anymore (with 08-01's nightly I had an uptime of 14+ days before I made a manual reboot for installing something), while with CM10 and CM10.1 I usually never got past 2-5 days without random reboots or problems. That's why I really like this CM10.2 so much! :)
[Defy Android Development] hotdog125:
For me, BBS never gave me such perfect readings for sleep and awake times. In fact, BBS values have some discrepancies which have not been explained.

About the battery, I have woken up 2 times due to the low battery warning. Just in the night I had ~80% charge, but when it woke me up, it had fallen from 60 to 14% in a straight line drop (I don't know how the battery went from 80 to 60% in the first place, BBS didn't show anything weird).
[Defy Android Development] deysmacro:
Hi guys. Just a quick note. Stock battery stats definitely have problems. :eek:

Fortunately, the battery is not the cause. :good:

To get a good estimates of your battery capacity, try using Battery Monitor Widget.

It will show you last juice before shutdown and max juice the battery can handle.

Mine shows 3398mv before shutdown and 4155mv max

So, from there you guys can have the estimates before the phone actually shutdowns.

Mine, even if it is 1%, it still have many hours left before it completely shutdown. :D

So, there you have it. Hope you guys can take benefit from it. :o

p/s: I use 3500mah battery capacity by the way. :D
