It may be XP, but once I used the correct version, it flew. Here are my steps (the same as I read from cargohook). Checked USB debug on phone. Plugged into computer (I'm on W7). Selected Portal. Computer installed drivers, and opened Moto Portal. I closed all Portal windows. I opened Super1click. Ran as Admin. Clicked on "Root". 30 seconds later a pop up said rooted. That's it. I closed Super1click. Changed to "charge only" on phone. Unchecked USB debug. Unplugged. Rebooted. Used Setvsel to overclock. Enjoying phone with 1GHZ speed.
[Defy General] slipknotfn:
Alright. Thanks. My mother in law has W7 on her new PC. I will try it over there. Until now I didn't see a reason to get a new computer. This one has served me well but.... May be time to invest in a new one. Thank you all for your help. I will try one last time.

EDIT:Hallelujah! It worked! After trying ALL day it finally worked. I used 2.51 version and waited and waited and waited through a few loops but.... it worked! With the help of the awesome XDA folks and lots of prayer my phone is rooted once more. Now to test and make sure it is so. Hopefully it is, cause the little box said it was. :D
[Defy General] Beach_Head:
Does anybody know what the difference is between the way z4Root works and the way Super1Click works?

They're basically using the same exploit so it has to be in the implementation. And I'm curious to find out...
[Defy General] ketonkss4:
I was afraid at 1st to install this update because of the speculation that it would not be rootable but lo and behold thanks to you guys' early suffering lol it rooted on the 1st try! Im wondering how people get such fast root times with superoneclick... the 1st time i rooted it took almost 5 mins and this time it took just as long. (running W7 btw)

Anyhow.. rooted, rebooted, and overclocked with Milestone app..

Quadrant score- 1223....hmmm best was at 1274 without update oh well no big difference.
[Defy General] wrecker1:
Was success on XP or mom-in-laws W7?
[Defy General] slipknotfn:
Sorry. Been busy all day. Was a success on XP. Just took a long time. Had to make sure all the steps were taken. Used the 2.51 version and had to just wait. Make sure debugging is on, in USB portal mode, let computer recognize it is there and then let it go. Mine took about 8 minutes the last time when it finally worked. Went through a few loop cycles then 'took'. I a not sure what the deal earlier was but I am sure happy it worked. Been trying to get back to where I was. Not updating again unless its 2.2. Hope some of my pains and frustration can help someone.
[Defy General] timberknoxville:
I got the update and after the install noticed that root was not functional but the superuser icon was still there.I used super one click to re-root the device and it replaced the z4root and worked great but i just didnt like the blur at all and wanted to see if i could revert back by applying my nandroid backup when i did it got stuck in boot loop and never recovered.was it because the backup was from before the update?
[Defy General] ketonkss4:
Dude thats a bummer... I did that to 1st defy trying to load a 2.2 froyo ROM..resulted in bootloop that i couldnt recover either...

I would say that the update is the culprit in your case for sure.

So r u still working on recovering from the bootloop?
[Defy General] bobbyphoenix:
Yes. Others have had the same issue, and Moto released a statement (on the official Moto Defy site) saying once you upgrade you can't go back to the old one. :(
[Defy General] timberknoxville:
well i never recovered.im lucky i have insurance on the phone and T-mo is sending me a new phone.
[Defy General] ketonkss4:
Well that's exactly what happened to me lol wasn't covered under the insurance so I took advantage of my warranty with tmobile last weekend too... Well I guess I've noticed the ui is a lot smoother but the only update I'll get in the future is froyo...

THIS WORKS on the Aria. BIG DIFFERENCE!
[HTC Aria Android Development] DanGeorges:
I just tried this, and it appears that the tweak to the file makes a difference in speed tests.

I'm trying to get my hands around how to actually test it in real-world situations.

So for CM7 - this would definitely be a nice addition to this already excellent ROM...
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
This should have been posted in the CM7 thread. Why start a new one?

Here is a flashable zip that will add the fix to an init.d script and will survive reboot. It checks to see if the value is 4, and if so changes it to 128. You have to apply it after each new rom flash.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
This can be tested with adb pull.

Pull it with the setting at 4. pull pack the cm rom to a local folder. you will get speed stats. after the first pull, set the param to 128. pull again.

syntax from adb: adb shell echo 128 > /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0/read_ahead_kb

from terminal - just skip the adb.

one note, I tried this on my Aria - it broke adb transfers. Then I tried it again and it worked.

Before I add this to CM, I want to make sure it's reliable.
[HTC Aria Android Development] akira02rex:
The gallery loads even faster.
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
Im at 128 with the update.zip I posted above, and I can adb pull and push to my hearts content. I am on nightly 18 BTW.
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
the correct way is to add it to init.rc - that's when I had a failure. but the failure is not consistent.
[HTC Aria Android Development] ladios:
On cm, if you want to preserve an init script, you can do anyone of the following:

Save it in /sd-ext/userinit.d/

Save it as /sd-ext/userinit.sh

Save it as /data/local/userinit.sh

Use cm's backuptool, it runs on rom installation. Just save its path (without the leading "/system/") into /system/etc/custom_backup_list.txt

etc/init.d/04sdcardspeedfix
[HTC Aria Android Development] dandrumheller:
Apparent improvement

Just flashed the above posted zip on CM7 Nightly 18 - seems to be a dramatic improvement, at least in stats, on my cheapie class 6 card:

before update: Write 5 / Read 6

after update: Write 4 / Read 12

I did not conduct this test at all scientifically - just ran one speed test before and one after the update, so take it for what it's worth I guess...just figured I'd share.
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
I have it running as an init.d script and cannot make it fail. I do see this tweak posted in a lot of different forums.
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
Looks like this thread is now dead. This has been commited to cm7.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:
I dont quite understand. This last change set it back to 4? We still gotta manually change it? Or that's just the MIN value?
[HTC Aria Android Development] bkmo:
The last commit is making a correction for the nand flash after the sd commit changed all memory readahead to128.
[HTC Aria Android Development] Darius_bd:

Gotcha, thanks for the clear up
[HTC Aria Android Development] attn1:
Correct! The changes will be built in tonight's nightly.

In ON state, batt indicator shows as charging, also get green and orange led, but no real charge is actually being delivered :confused:.

[Captivate Themes and Apps] vendetta007:
Ok, silly question / problem. I've been tinkering with my phone trying to get the startup sound changed and its REALLY kicking my hind quarters. I've got a replacement PowerOn.wav and PowerOn.snd (properly mod'd) with 16-bit / 44100hz settings (same as the default file) but no joy. I've tried a couple different files in this format with no luck. I've even tried it on different roms (cognition, perception, dilligaf, darky, and paragon) all with no luck. I'm doing something wrong and I have no idea what it is.

Can someone break it down for me barney-style exactly what the requirements are for a startup sound?

Help?
[Captivate Themes and Apps] codyrt:
I don't know if there are specific requirements, but I have had success with using SGS Tools to replace my startup sound. All I did was put my sound file on my phone (in wav format) in sdcard/sgstools/. I went into SGS Tools and chose modify boot sound, navigated to my file, and it worked. You can do the same with the shutdown sound.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Kaik541:
if you're using a kernel that supports custom boot animations (bootanimation.zip) then you cannot change it (in fact, there is no boot sound).

if you are using a stock kernel that supports samsung's boot animation (bootsamsung.qmg) then you can change it with any .wav using SGS tools.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] vendetta007:
the custom boot animation is the key then. been bashing my head against a brick wall for a week now. thanks for clearing it up for me. so now my question becomes, what do i need to do to change the script to run the boot sound? what enables a custom boot animation? i remember something about playlogos1 or something.
[Captivate Themes and Apps] Kaik541:
playlogos1 is samsung's binary for showing their "bootsamsung.qmg" files, all the custom kernels that support "bootanimation.zip" have a change in initramfs to support the AOSP boot animation support that removes "playlogos1"... you'd have to either modify the initramfs and compile a new kernel OR use one of samsung's kernels to restore the playlogos1 binary to it's old functionality.

as for getting a boot sound to play with the bootanimation.zip, as of right now, I do not know of any way to do this. I tried recreating the boot sound script from various verizon phones that do that loud "DROID" sound, but it refused to even run from the command line (stagefright seems to be finnicky on our phones) let alone during boot because I didn't create a service for the boot sound. <--- someone would have to do this and create a kernel and working binary/script
[Captivate Themes and Apps] tazman171:
That's the explenation I've been looking for, I knew when the boot sounds quit working just not why. Thanks. :)

On the other side, shutdown sounds and custom shutdown animations work. :cool:
[Captivate Themes and Apps] vendetta007:
well... you can put a script in /system/etc/init.d/S01bootsound and have it do this

#!/system/bin/sh
/system/bin/playlogos1 &
sleep 10
killall playlogos1

if you've removed the samsung boot qmg files then this will only play the sound file. problem is its delayed by 10 seconds into the boot process and i'm having a devil of a time making a boot animation sync up to that particular time. still trying to figure out how to insert the file earlier into the boot process.

I actually have default browser jumping out to desktop even with the old 2.0.71, this happens whenever there is heavy flash video content.

[Android Themes] SwimDrewid:
This answer assumes you have root privelages on the phone.

All metamorph does is replace the current /system/fonts/DroidSans.ttf and DroidSans-Bold.ttf with a different font (named the same).

You can also manually update the 2 afformentioned fonts in /system/fonts. You will need to name them as indicated above and reboot your phone.
