Wow you have a unique situation. It doesn't make sense that you can see the boot image but nothing else. Maybe you have an improper or partial connection? I would try repeating the connection process again. Maybe some wd-40 left behind is creating an electrical short. Or maybe a connection is improperly seated. Take it apart and use some compressed air to blow off the connections and see what happens.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] ZEMONTI:
I undid and assembled the phone few times, including removing the glass.

Hello, where can I download the latest rafael.baugis version kernel? I know that now bieltv3 is the maintainer of the project. There are a lot of version, one of 2012 and one of 2013, than the 4.0 of slim cm7. I am confused, what is the latest? I'm installing Base Rom V3

Sorry for my bad english, thanks!
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Deleted member 5617821:
I suggest you go with original version of Rafael's Kernel,

Rafael Baugis kernel

Hope I Helped :)
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Hitesh2626:
Go for 2013 one & from future post question in Q& A thread.
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Aitan7:
If i can, without opening another post in Q&A thread, I ask here: I have to first install the rom or the kernel?

EDIT: Sorry, it is written in rafael's kernel thread
[Galaxy Ace S5830i General] Hitesh2626:
Anytime you can flash it before flashing or after flashing Rom , but do remember after flashing Rom do wipe cache .
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] paul.siu:
I notice that several Rockstar games are not available for Galaxy S Relay. It probable that the phone doesn't have enough cpu power to run the games, but I notice that the games can be run using a Galaxy S2, which should be inferior to the S Relay. Anyone notice this issue have a fix? I tried using Market Helper to get around the issue, but it doesn't work and the developer appeared to have retired the app. I could also mess with build.prop but I rather not.

I was wondering. Has anyone actually requested Rockstar to support the device. Since there are quite a number of S Relay owners out there, I would think that someone must have already done so.

Paul
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] REV3NT3CH:
Which games? What ROM? Or are you pure stock?
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] paul.siu:
Grand Theft Auto. Virtually all of them block Relay as a device. ROM is stock. Why? Does installing a different rom makes a difference?

Paul
[Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G] paul.siu:
I emailed Rockstar game and they didn't respond, it appears I won't be getting any Rockstar games :). I believe there is a way around it. If you purchase the game on a compatible phone, then extract the apk using a utility call Raccoon and install it on the Galaxy S Relay phone.

[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Facing a very strange problem. I was recently i.e till 4th JUL installing almost all nightlies & have used it satisfactorily & have seen great improvement, but the problem started when I migrated from prepaid to postpaid connection wherein I had to undergo a sim card change.

Now with this new sim & the lastest nightly installed the interface runs fast & smooth but I started noticing that my battery was draining quick & I checked percentages in CPU SPY. I daily check the cpu spy percentages number of times a day & especially when I get up in the morning, specifically I check the deep sleep percentage.

So the problem here that started was that my cpu runs at 300mhz all the time & do not enter deep sleep mode at all, even at night when there is almost no activity with just network on. This continued for some days & accidentally I found one night that when I entered flight mode my cpu started entering sleep mode, so I tried replacing the sim & inserted another sim & every thing worked fine i.e cpu enters deep sleep mode, again I insert my sim & that strange thing happens. I tried inserting one of my office colleagues sim & the thing runs fine & as soon as I insert my sim the problem starts.

Now the difference I found between the other sims & my sims is that the metal contacts on my new sim are smaller than the old sim & other sims I tried. So the culprit seems to be the smaller metal contacts. Can such thing really happen with our defy+ & what may be the reason that the cpu runs at 300mhz continuously. Hope some of you may have encountered such problem & probably have a solution.

Currently I am on the stock rom i.e Ginger Bread & the astonishing thing is that with this new sim & stock rom there is no such problem i.e the device is almost in 80-90 percent deep sleep. I am really not able to understand what the problem is & am so used to using CM11 4.4.4 that I feel it totally inconvenient to use the stock rom & am eager to install the latest nightly of CM11. Would request to pls help me out & let me know what needs to be done. Attached a photo of sim contact compare & CPU SPY Percentages.

Currently I am on Stock ROM i.e GINGERBREAD, but if someone is eager to help me out will install latest CM11 nightly & provide the required info.
[Defy General] akhil.mordia:
Try The Latest Build

I am using the lastest build

Rom: 20140724 NIGHTLY 4.4.4 Kitkat Defy(+) (by Quarx)

GApps: 7-24 Minimal 4.4.4 GApps (by BaNkS)

I did not face any such problem.

After installing the rom, give it 4-5 hrs of rest.

I have overclocked my CPU and GPU using Aero Control.

I hope this helps.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Thanks for your reply.

Prior to the change of SIM i.e Prior to migration from Prepaid to Postpaid everything was fine & every build used to work perfectly & I used to achieve a deep sleep percentage of around 80-90%, all this jinx thing has started right after the migration. So even if I install the latest nightly the same thing is going to happen. When for test purpose I inserted my colleagues sim in my phone I also inserted my sim in his handset & checked that his handset could get into deep sleep & with his sim my handset also entered in sleep mode. Its very strange but it is happening. If you are using a DEFY+ Can you pls check the metal contacts on your sim & let me know whether the contacts are big or small, for reference you can use the image I attached in my initial post.

Once again thanks for responding.
[Defy General] AayushT:
Hey Mahadikrs,

I am in a similar situation. My phone almost never goes to deepsleep. I am running 21 july CM11 build by Quarx. Everything else is great but the battery backup. The stock rom gave me a great backup (usually more than one and a half days).

After reading your post, i checked my sim card and i found that it too had small contact area. I am a Vodafone IN customer with a postpaid connection. I had switched to postpaid a few months ago (4 - 5 months ago).

I have to charge my phone twice a day. My phone stays at 300Mhz for about 90% of the time.

I too need a solution for this. I think paying a visit to Vodafone customer care might help, though i don't think it would be much help.

I use gapps and also sync them. But i don't think it is the culprit because on the stock rom, it worked just fine. Apart from that i don't have my wifi on all the time. Maybe 2 hours a day.

I would like to know which apps do you use that sync? And how much is your internet use?
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Regret to know you are facing exactly the same problem. I know how much pain it is that we have updated android version but just due to sim issue we cannot use the same & are stuck up with the stock rom. I visited Vodafone store as well as stormed vodafone customer care over mails & live chats but the only reply I received was that ur handset may be faulty, pls get it checked. No use explaining the issue to them. Regarding my usage I am a very normal user with almost no gaming & use my handset just for attending & making calls & checking mails using 2g/3g & for whatsapp & play store updation I connect to wifi but not more than an hour or two per day. Where are you located i.e residing in Mumbai or elsewhere, let me know so that I will be able to forward your experience also to Vodafone, so that they can come to know that we are having no problem with handset.

Even today when I look at the problem I am still not able to understand why this strange thing is happening, I hope as per my assumption if I am facing problem in CM11 due to the sims smaller metal contacts then the same thing should have happened even with stock rom, which is really not happening. Is there any minor / major difference in Stock Rom as compared to CM11 which is giving rise to this problem. Same Handset & Same Sim but behaves differently in different rom versions. What do you think, any study / clue from your end.

Would request you if possible try a different sim but with a larger metal contacts & revert back with your experience. I was able to achieve 75% deep sleep in just 40 minutes with another sim that too of Vodafone but prepaid with large metal contacts.
[Defy General] AayushT:
Unfortunately didn't get a chance to test my phone with any other sim. Will try it today. I live in Jaipur.

I'd like to know how you set the baseband in your phone with CM11? I did that with a software 'Baseband Switcher for Defy' when i flashed the first time and i had better deepsleep percentages. And i'm not sure, but i think the situation got worse after i uninstalled that software.

And so far i've not come across anything that could link smaller contact area with battery drain. And i don't understand android too much, so it will be hard for me to find any answers.

Though if i come across anything that might help us, i'll be sure and post it here in this forum.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
Friends please install wake lock detector from play store and check which app or process produce wake lock. Another suggestion is to flash ROM without gapps and check deepsleep. Maybe Google play service is the reason.

I am always use my phone without gaaps. It is superfast and great battery backup.
[Defy General] AayushT:
[MENTION=5907774]mahadikrs[/MENTION] , [MENTION=4483948]pradeeppk[/MENTION]

Have you set any alarms in your phone?
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Thanks a lot for the suggestion. Unfortunately now I am on Stock rom & would have to revert back to CM11 Latest nightly, can you suggest a recent stable nightly. Initially I also thought that Play service may be the culprit & think I tried checking the same without installing gapps but cannot recollect & confirm this. Also regarding using rom without gapps is it ok to use without gapps, what problems can be faced due to absence of gapps. Problem with me is that I get very limited time to do all these things, but will do it again to cross check as soon as I gain some time. Anything for KitKat on a DEFY+. Will let you know when I am back on Kitkat.

PS : May be you have checked the metal contacts on you sim card, but can you pls revert back with the info regarding the size whether it is normal old style or the new smaller one, for comparison you can use the image attached in my initial post. Also if you find the metal contacts normal would request to pls check by inserting another card with smaller metal contacts if possible & let us know.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
I am using "to do reminder" app as alarm and reminder. My ROM is so slim with out clock and even calendar.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
I also use 'Baseband Switcher for Defy' its the best, but I don't think it will be creating such a problem. But still worth trying & will try as soon as I get back on Kitkat. I am not sure & cannot confirm but I think I tested these things & still the problem was occuring. I did a lot of experiments to get out of this problem, infact right from the day I have observed this problem everyday after returning to home from work, the first thing I used to do is request my kind wife to prepare a cup of ginger tea & in the meanwhile I would connect my handset to RSDLITE, do a clean install of stock rom & then flash CM11 & then you know the whole story. Even my wife got fed up due to this activity as it started to became a daily activity, I used to do these thing between 7PM to almost sometimes 11PM ofcourse with a dinner break.

Lets hope we will get some solution, today we have one more friend i.e PRADEEPPK from Kerala helping us solve the problem, have requested him for some trial.

Also I use CM11 alarms daily & even sync my calendar, no problem with the same.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
I will not use baseband switcher. I am just copy china2.5/2.6/2.10 baseband files to system/etc/base bands/bp_nvm_defaults before flashing. I am always get better results with these baseband than SEA baseband.

My network is bsnl which use 900 mhz . If you installed wakelock then let me know which app trigger wakelock.(prevent deepsleep)

I am using hololauncher, hwaccileration disabled all apps except camera, dialer and incallui.

Using boosted governed, min frequency increased to 350 with out changing voltage.

Also I read some were that manual searching and selecting our default network will reduce ril bugs.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
You got Nice Deep sleep percentage. Let me know which nightly is your handset is on. Will flash & then check.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
24/7 nightly without gapps and also removed some system apps

My system apps
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Thanks a lot for the info. Surely I am going to install the 24-7 build, currently downloading, just waiting for enough time to devote for this task. Will flash & not install gapps as advised & also will install the WAKELOCK detector app you mentioned. One thing I want to know is about the baseband thing you mentioned in your previous reply, as you mentioned :

I will not use baseband switcher. I am just copy china2.5/2.6/2.10 baseband files to system/etc/base bands/bp_nvm_defaults before flashing. I am always get better results with these baseband than SEA baseband.

Just wanted to confirm is the above to be done prior to flashing the CM11 Nightly or after first boot completes. Also hope the above procedure will work for me I am staying in Maharashtra, Thane ( Badlapur city ).

Will let you know how it behaves in a day or two, thanks again.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
Open the rom using 7 zip. Navigate to system/etc/Motorola/base bands/Asia and extract china2_52_62_10 zip to any folder. Then copy all extracted files (18 No's) to system/etc/Motorola/bp_nvm_default folder. (These procedures are before flashing)

If you need gapps flash it after few hours. And compare the deep sleep status both time
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Yesterday night installed the 24/07 nightly only ( no gapps ) & prior to flashing did the steps mentioned for baseband. After Flashing was not able to get proper network, searched manually & rebooted almost three times network was not availabe, so changed the baseband from SETTINGS - ADVANCED - BASEBAND SELECTION & selected Asia-China-2.5/2.6/2.10 & rebooted. After reboot got registered on network. In the meanwhile Installed only CPU SPY & WAKELOCK DETECTOR. Made no other changes. Cpu Spy is working but Wakelock is not working states error that "Failed to perform this task at the moment, try again later. Kept the phone as it is to let it go in deep sleep & Myself also went to sleep, checked the cpu spy details in the morning at 6:00AM today, found the problem is still there hence rebooted one more time & checked, find below some screen shots for reference. Now will proceed to install GAPPS as facing problem of no contacts as all contacts are on my gmail account. Waiting for your advice. Btw at the time I went to sleep battery was around 62% & in the morning it was at 32%.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
Wake lock detector working fine in my defy.

Really strange. Either flash a sbf and start, or flash defy safewipe before flashing 24/7 nightly
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
I was on stock rom i.e Gingerbread, but rooted with Framaroot & 2ndInit 2.3 installed. After that installed TWRP Recovery, waited for 30seconds after entering twrp then installed safewip.zip, then flashed CM11 nightly & rest story I have already narrated. Apart from this the part to be noted is that the main problem is still there i.e not entering deep sleep mode. What next, should I stay on this nightly or revert back to Stock Rom, I will once again try to reflash the same nightly & check. In the meanwhile pls suggest.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
As like you said earlier the problem arise after changing sim card, you should remove the sim card , power on and wait 5 or 10 minute. Then check the deepsleep status.

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:14 AM ----------

Or insert another simcard and try without data and wifi
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
I have again Safewiped & reflashed 24/07 nightly & installed cpu spy only ( No change in basebands ), will keep the handset for 3-4 hours for testing with network on & flight mode & revert back with results.

Let me know does Wakelock works independently, or does it requires XPOSED Framework or BusyBox installed to work properly.

Also earlier when I noticed this problem i.e no deep sleep I had swapped sim & tried two other sims which worked fine & the only difference between my new sim & the other two sims was the area of metal contacts, mine had smaller metal contacts whereas the other two sims had larger metal contacts. Hence I came to conclusion that sims with smaller metal contacts are culprit to this problem. Hope you can check the metal contacts on your handset & provide a feedback, further if possible you can try using both type of sims on your handset & let me know. I am also awaiting reply from [MENTION=5963086]AayushT[/MENTION] who is to provide a feedback by trying other sim on his handset.

Find below Screenshots of CPU SPY taken after fresh install of nightly again, First one is with network on showing no deep sleep & rest two with flight mode showing device entered in deep sleep mode.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
Add these lines to your build prop using esfile explorer and reboot

pm.sleep_mode=1

Inform me the result
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Have added the line at the end of Build.Prop & will revert back.

Just FYI I had read about this thing earlier & as per my info this tweak is available for QUALCOMM Processors. .

Anyways lets check out the result. Also I was successful in installing WAKELOCK, do you want me to put up any specific details from the same, pls let know.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
Yes screen shot of CPU wake lock and wakelock triggers.

Also delete contacts in sim card if any.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
PFA the screenshots for your reference. Would like to know about the size of metal contacts on your sim.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
My sim is with big metel contacts.

couldn't found any thing wrong with your wakelock data.

Also you can try to clear all contacts in sim card

---------- Post added at 10:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------

I have 2 suggestions

1. Try cm.7.2, cm10 and check the deepsleep status

There is a bug

In jellybean which prevent deepsleep. But after toggling airplane mode the phone will enter in deepsleep .

2. Try to change your sim
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
I already deleted all contacts on my sim. Further there is no possibility of sim change as I have contacted vodafone store as well as customer care & they say all new sims are with smaller metal contacts only no possibility of getting sim with larger metal contact, I would have to go for an operator change but prior to that I need to get confirm about the new sim they would be providing.

But as per my study I found that older sims are working fine, could not find the relation as to why these new sims with small metal contacts are creating problem, may be the technology / circuitry used in the new sims is causing the trouble that too specific with CM11. Also its true that deep sleep mode works fine in airplane mode. Hope if I want to have a peaceful usage of my DEFY+ I would have to revert back to Stock ROM.
[Defy General] pradeeppk:
Really disappointing. Now KitKat is stable and in my case battery backup is better than stock.

Badluck friend.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Thanks alot for the Investigation, support & the courtesy extended.

Which Kitkat Nightly are you currently on, the latest or still on 24/07 as you said earlier.

Is any build later than 24/07 really stable, let me know, will give a try as yet I have not given up hope.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
As a temporary workaround you can try the below mentioned 2 things.

1) As suggested by [MENTION=4483948]pradeeppk[/MENTION] try changing the baseband to China-2.5/2.6/2.10, you can change the same from SETTINGS - ADVANCED - BASEBAND SELECTION & select Asia-China-2.5/2.6/2.10 & reboot. Even though there is no problem due to baseband you should give it a try.

2) As far as my experience is considered intermittently keeping the phone on flight mode for few minutes & especially keeping on flight mode whole night helps a lot maintaining deep sleep mode for a long time.

Hope you will check out & provide feedback. Also did you tried using another sim in your phone probably with large metal contacts.
[Defy General] AayushT:
I'm not able to post an outside link. But what i found was "I have also been reading that some SIMs require 3.6v and other require 5v. This may be the issue as well if the have change the voltage."

Though it might not fit into our situation, but it's the only thing i found. Besides there were some posts that read that new sims are better at reception, better at 3G, so maybe they actually consume more power. And since the sim that Pradeeppk uses has large contact area, it is fairly possible (if at all) that our new sims comsume more power. I have nothing to back this claim, but then i've not got anything else.

Sorry, wasn't able to reply earlier. Was busy with something. And wasn't even able to try an older sim. Will definitely do it today.

BTW thanks Pradeeppk to help us out. We appreciate your effort. And thanks Mahadikrs for your patience.

And i am not able to deduce anything with the wakelock application. Need some more time with that.
[Defy General] AayushT:
I checked with airplane mode, deepsleep all the time while in airplane mode. So it must be something with the network.

And Mahadikrs has checked that the problem persists even if we don't use Baseband Switcher for Defy, so my guess is that the new sims are creating the problem.

Gonna test with larger area sim at night. Let's hope it works out.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
The only surprising thing in this issue is that everything works fine in Stock ROM & whatever this problem is, arises only in CM11, not aware of CM10 or CM9 never tested. In my experience I am able to use my phone for atleast 2-3 days on a full single charge on stock rom with approx consumption of 1% per hour & used to achieve atleast 2days on CM11 of course prior to migration to postpaid which is the thing I repent most now.

Absolutely agree that newer sims are very much better for reception as well as 3G hence operators are providing them as they are the best & even if we consider the change in voltage of older & new sims how does stock rom manages to work properly, isn't it surprising. Hope expert developers look into our issue & help us out , have already forwarded the same to [MENTION=4916555]okij[/MENTION] and [MENTION=513620]Quarx[/MENTION].
[Defy General] AayushT:
[MENTION=5907774]mahadikrs[/MENTION]

I tried a sim with larger area. 95% deepsleep in just 20 minutes.

You were right. I'm going to try to talk to Vodafone soon.
[Defy General] AayushT:
Yes the stock rom was good for me too. I too normally got a fairly nice battery back before and after switching to postpaid. Let's hope the experts are able to help us with this. And Blechd0se has released a new kernel. There might be a solution in there somewhere.
[Defy General] mahadikrs:
Yes I hope you should talk to vodafone & explain them the problem. I have myself tried to explain them but as no other complaint is received they think my handset is faulty & advised me to get the same checked.
