[Defy Android Development] noxunas:
Why this rom doesn't appear in http://and-developers.com/sbf:defy?do=revisions ??
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
Press your volume rocker at both ends (at the same time). Both microswitches to "click" down at the same time!

[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
So far, difference from US 3.4.2 I can tell is no haptic feedback. Swype is installed but not activated by default.

And none of the Familyroom / drivesafe stuff installed
[Defy Android Development] leoking3:
Hey guys, just a short question. If I buy the Defy with 2.1 , can I go directly to this ROM? And if so , how? Does it need to be rooted first? Or it flashes the Update.zip from the regular Recovery? Just a few words on this, thanks.
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
Hey guys!

Finally a native GB Froyo! Im pleased the familyroom and drivesafe isnt included in the GB rom. Have anyone managed to check if the GPS is working correctly? With the US rom, Google maps kept locating me about 3 miles from where i actually was i gave it plenty of time to get a lock too. (not very useful).

Cheers

Andy
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
You can go directly to this rom but I think it's undowngradeable if you do.

You do it via software on your PC called RSD Lite. Look at Higgsy's tutorial on how to debrand the defy.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
I will check for you now.

The US GPS worked fine for me, it took me about 30 minutes to get locked in and positioned correctly though (cold gps boot).

I also had to reboot the phone after it had all locked in too as it kept going weird.

Anyway, I'll test gps now...
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Gps working :)

In Copilot it took about 2 minutes to lock on to 10 satellites.

Google Navigation is also working perfectly too :D

EDIT: One thing I've also noticed with this version is that it now switches between Wi-Fi and mobile data. In the US version it would keep both on at the same time.

EDIT 2: I've been testing with Quadrant. Highest score I got was 1552. Normal scores being between 1505 - 1550.

This is overclocked to 1100mhz with 62vsel - same settings as US version, but top quadrant score I got with US was 1602
[Defy Android Development] Higgsy:
gps working sweet here on the us version, got the files downloaded so might have a play later, yeah wifi and 3g did stay on at the same time until I sorted it on the us version. The lack of a HSDPA icon is merely that on us, it still connects via HSDPA
[Defy Android Development] casper326:
Any one find the Crystal Talk option??
[Defy Android Development] f4lkon:

[Defy Android Development] Muznyu:
Okay... I restored the nandroid backup over a fresh, clean 2.21 UK ROM, and my camera is not working, the screen is blank, I can't take pictures when starting camera or camcorder application. That was the situation with tmob nandroid as well (I flashed it on 2.34 CEE ROM). So I tried to wipe data and cache in standard recovery again, it didn't even help. Tried to change camera settings, clear application data, no result. So the question: is it the same for everybody who tried the nandroid version, or something is wrong just with my Defy? Earlier I tried chinese froyo with camera and flash fixes, I hope this problem is not related to those fixes... :o BTW camera and flash is perfectly working on 2.1.
[Defy Android Development] Perilla_:
Muznyu, you have to flash the sbf camera fix!
[Defy Android Development] Muznyu:
Ohh, thanks for the quick reply, now my camera is working. :) I'm assuming that this green flash light is still a problem for nandroid backups, but flash is okay with the full sbf version?
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Yes, works perfectly with the full sbf for me :)
[Defy Android Development] tensan:
And you had installed the flash fixes? Because some peoples says that green flash error came from there.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Yes I tried all the fixes but none worked for me on the chinese 2,2, I never experienced any green flash, it just wouldn't flash at all.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Market Protected Apps Fix 2.2UK

I made this update .zip for my phone to unlock the protected apps in the market.

Thanks to Higgsy for providing information on how to make this.

I've tested and it works perfectly on my Defy (UK T-Mobile).
[Defy Android Development] noxunas:
Does it have Motoblur or it's like the 2.34 ?
[Defy Android Development] maarten66:
What I find interesting is that key vibrating actually works, but it's so little vibrating that you don't notice when you're normally using the phone. Maybe some variable what is to low or something?
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
yes it has motoblur
[Defy Android Development] racca:
i can't fell anything. haptic for long press is weak, i got nothing on key touch.
[Defy Android Development] maarten66:
On key touch there is a very little vibrate when you feel very good.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
You are correct!

There is the tiniest of tiny vibrations. You really have to feel extremely gently. A normal press and you wouldn't notice because of the vibration your finger would cause normally.
[Defy Android Development] racca:
oh, yes. of course. i can only feel it through the hand that is holding my phone. nothing on the finger.
[Defy Android Development] racca:
the guy said he's got th vf360 and german tmo as well.

let's hope he'll release those too. (all have faint haptic for sure)
[Defy Android Development] 7iain7:
One this i have noticed is the improved keyboard.
[Defy Android Development] SteveChou:
undowngradeable to 2.21 CN？

high bootloader？

I"m on bootloader 10.00 now.
[Defy Android Development] 7iain7:
I can rootthis rom but i cannot get into recovery. only the standard recovery by holding vol up down at the same time.

does anyone know which recovery i should use.

many thanks

Fixed Problem: i still had the phone in usb debugging mode
[Defy Android Development] Muznyu:
If you want to use Clockwork, you have to disable USB debugging after installing the recovery.
[Defy Android Development] racca:
where exactly did you get 10.00, i'm still on 9.10
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Video Improvement Mod + Protected Apps Unlocked

Hi all,

I created this update .zip for myself.

This improves the video settings to record at 8mbps in .mp4 - Thanks to BizzaBoy for showing how to mod this.

It also unlocks the protected apps in the market - Thanks to Higgsy for this.

This replaces your build.prop and media_profiles.xml files.

Tested on my Defy as working.

METHOD I USE FOR INSTALL:

1. Download zip file below and save somewhere on your Defy's SD Card.

2. Root using SuperOneClick (Click here for Instructions)

3. Reboot

4. Install the ClockWork MOD Recovery (Click here for Instructions)

5. Go to Settings > Applications > Development and disable USB debugging.

6. Boot into the ClockWork MOD Recovery.

7. Choose to "Install zip from SDCARD", then "choose zip from sdcard", then browse and find where you saved the zip, then press "Yes Install..."

8. Reboot system now.

9a. If this is a fresh install, you can simply start using the market now.

9b. If you have used the market before, go to Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All.

10. Scroll down and find "Market". Press the "Force stop" button and then press the "Clear data" button.

11. Exit the Settings and start using Market :)

Cheers :D
[Defy Android Development] racca:
diable debug first.
[Defy Android Development] jmitch268:
has anyone updated to this by SBF, from 2.51. if so does the flash and everything seem to work
[Defy Android Development] chaihg:
IS IT DOWNGRADABLE???? :)

I know one thread said NO, just want to confirm before I flash.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
No it's not :(

Although it's the best Froyo ROM available in my opinion.
[Defy Android Development] chaihg:
Ah thanks for that tip. I am returning my defected defy so want to return it the way it came. Cant flash now but will surely do so after my new piece comes to me.
[Defy Android Development] edition-:
Can someone put together what they found that isn't working?

Edit: Flashing it from 2.51 atm, going to try it alone.

Edit2: It booted without bootloop!! Doing the configuration atm, going to check things and after it, i am going to try to flash it without wipe :)
[Defy Android Development] 7iain7:
I had problems booting into recovery.

Problem was solved by turning of usb debugging.

GPS seems to find sats quicker now.

US version of navigation was odd. google called trafic island's road circles. lol

Camera works fine.
[Defy Android Development] edition-:
Was able to flash it directly from 2.51, but the keyboard is just ****ed up! Going to try a wipe
[Defy Android Development] jmitch268:
is it just the bottom keys that dont vibrate or does the phone no longer vibrate when receiving calls, messages etc aswell
[Defy Android Development] edition-:
It just vibrated when i was turning it off to get back to 2.51 xD, so i guess it is only the keys :)

Edit: I think this is undowngradable, can't get back to 2.51, black screen...
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Yes, vibrate work as normal, just it doesn't vibrate when pressing the 4 bottom keys like it does on the US version.
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
I installed via the .sbf, did a wipe via stock recovery afterwards and to be honest this seems to work great.

GPS is working 100% (phew this is important to me)

Camera and Flash 100%

Really liking the MOBiDIV keyboard (better than the gingerbread ones i've been using previously).

Non of the usual unwanted bloat apps included either! (ok it has motoblur, but i quite like that. Might use zeam launcher or just keep it as it is).

Feels very smooth and not at all laggy even without doing any over clocking.

With the exception of the haptic feedback on the 4 buttons at the bottom of the screen this one looks to be just the job for me!

(im sure one of the very clever guys on the forum will sort out why the buttons dont buzz).

Finally i've got a rom that i'm happy with and should be able to keep! I have tried every one posted on the forum and tweaked them to death too. (And thought i had killed my Defy on more than one occasion)

Now when's somebody going to find a leaked Gingerbread rom for us ;)

Andy
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Haha, I feel exactly the same way mate, this is the best one I've tried so far. No problems at all. Video recording is awesome at 8mbps/30fps. Shame I can't downgrade now, but to be honest, I really don't mind. :)
[Defy Android Development] tensan:
I have already flash it, and all works perfectly. To record videos at 8mbps/30fps, it's needed to do something?

Thanks
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
I will install your .zip file to beef up the video recording - sounds good. I take it i just rename the zip to update.zip and flash with the tenfar / defy clockwork mod recovery?

What exactly are protected apps in the market? (bit confused with this). You dont mean unlocking apps for free like Ap****et do you? Or is it something a bit more legit ;)

cheers

Andy
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Download the zip I posted on a previous post and install it from recovery menu. :)
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
It's all legit mate, Google have to approve each build to make sure apps are compatible or whatever, so it's just to tell the market that we have an already approved build installed.

For instance, if you search for the PayPal app, it wont appear on the market, but after applying this it will.

To apply, boot into the recovery menu and choose to install the zip update from sd card. Using the clockwork menu you wont need to rename and you can look through. I think if you do it by the standard recovery, then yes it has to be renamed.

I wanted it for myself as I use software called "MM Tracker" which I'd bought from the market when I first got the Defy. But since changing roms it doesn't appear so I can't download it. Applying this means I can :)
[Defy Android Development] tensan:
OK! Thanks! I only had seen your market mod.

What apps are blocked?
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
I don't have a list, but some I know of are MM Tracker (my favourite ever app) and the official PayPal app.
[Defy Android Development] tensan:
Oh, I NEED this app! I've already apply the patch. All perfect.

Thanks!!

EDIT: Oh, my market app doesn't update itself... Maybe in some time... Or could be the fix?
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Ah, you might need to go into settings>applications>manage applications.

choose the market app, force stop, then clear data.

Restart market and it should start fresh with the new settings.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Also, I just tested the FM Radio as I'd totally forgot to test this and it also works perfectly. Anything else we haven't tested?
[Defy Android Development] tensan:
OK, Market updated. Thanks again. I feel a little stupid today.

I have to test if FM Radio blocks after a time on. That happened me in 2.1.
[Defy Android Development] tim440:
Is that a cache wipe or full date wipe and reset? Think I'm going to give this a go in the morning.
[Defy Android Development] ChrisFilo:
What about last.fm radio playback. Is it clear (no crackling noise, pops etc) even when you use the phone for other stuff?
[Defy Android Development] hadzajlija:
Hi Everybody,

I flashed from sbf and after i finished, device was rebootet and staying on "M blur" picture and doesn´t go on.

please help!
[Defy Android Development] kazumisan:
when I try to apply the update.zip from recovery boot, tells me it's invalid, why?

And by doing this:

[QUOTE = MadStu; 10989872] Oh, You Might Need to Go into settings> Applications> manage applications.

choose the app market, force stop, Then clear data.

Should it restart market and start fresh with the new settings. [/QUOTE]

I just updated the market, but will not let me install new apps

The backup nandroid the market is fixed?
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
I did full data wipe and reset, so it's like new.
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
I used the clockworkmod recovery and it works fine. I hadn't tried on the standard recovery.
[Defy Android Development] kazumisan:
I do it with this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=875233

[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
yes, once rooted with superoneclick, reboot phone, then install the defy_recovery-1218-0326-signed.apk :D
[Defy Android Development] kazumisan:
zip right? I do that, really I have no idea
[Defy Android Development] andyfletcher:
I did full wipe of all data and cache before flashing the sbf. (so it was totally clean like factory new again).
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:
Unzip superoneclick on your windows machine. The instructions are in the superoneclick thread, but you basically enable usb debugging on your phone, plug into usb to your computer, run the superoneclick program with admin rights on your computer, then click the "Root" button. Any problems should be reported in the superoneclick thread :)
[Defy Android Development] kazumisan:
I rooted and did it all that, i cant make the market´s fixs works
[Defy Android Development] 7iain7:
Strange, it worked for me. can you search for paypal in the market ?
[Defy Android Development] Higgsy:
was meant to post new thread oooops
[Defy Android Development] irenic:
Higgsy, I guess quite a number of people already flash the sbf..

still thanks a lot for the guide!
[Defy Android Development] pinkllama:
I'm currently on Jboogie3 BlurlessGinger3.5beta

Am I right in thinking that i should boot into clockwork recovery, wipe data and cache. then flash the sbf via rsd lite?

do i need to flash a new boot_only sbf?
[Defy Android Development] racca:
I don't know how I or anyone else can help. Flashing a signed sbf is quite straight forward. The only thing I can suggest is flash it again and wipe it.

And I can assure you I (and many others) have test it on many different SKU's. It shoud work.
[Defy Android Development] racca:
No you don't have to boot with clockworkmod. you don't even have to wipe immediately.

You can just flash it and see if your apps work then decide whether or not to wipe (stock recovery is just fine)
[Defy Android Development] SteveChou:
well I bought Chinese DEFY-- ME525 , it's bootloader 10.00 with CN froyo.

what about this UK froyo?
[Defy Android Development] naenee:
I find this release to be very good indeed; Amongst things such as the return of the white Swype and built-in APNs, I find that this is the only version so far that makes the unlock swipe bar animation completely smooth. In fact, I would like to go so far as to make the statement that this version, even without overclocking, is the smoothest operating yet, to a very noticable degree. It is as if operations which taxed the cpu or gpu before, do so far less now and run smooth now. I do not even see any slight delays in the Swype trail as I type this. I am not sure what has changed between other releases and this one, but I am glad it has. And I am 100% sure something has, as I vividly recall being a bit disappointed with the lack of a smooth unlock animation every time I unlocked my device.KI

•update• Even the first cycle of the boot animation is smooth now. Before, there was visible caching, with the first cycle being jittery and subsequent cycles smooth as it had loaded the animation in memory.
[Defy Android Development] pjcons:
So any quadrant scores on this sbf yet? Sounds like my next trial will b this one!
[Defy Android Development] SteveChou:
what's the edition of the bootloader?

Is it 9.10?

My defy is on 10.00, so I can flash back?
[Defy Android Development] hadzajlija:
thnx for your response racca.

I'm holding volume - and power the phone > it comes to the triangle with callsign > I then typed in the bottom right corner (i can't enter in recovery anymore).

I flashed again > and nothing happens > same as before :(

Edit:

Thank you racca :)

It´s ok now, everything fine , i did what you said (wipe) and to come in recovery typed together volume - + .
[Defy Android Development] MadStu:

App2SD supported?
[Defy Android Development] demolition23:
Why??

2gb for apps isnt enough for you?
[Defy Android Development] Dude-01:
Do we have got any solution for the vibration problem? Couldn't we use an older driver for the vibration settings so that we got normal vibration?
[Defy Android Development] BizzaBoy:
You can move apps directly to SD in "Settings -> Applications -> Manage Applications". (assuming that this is what Add2SD does).
[Defy Android Development] Khrushy:
I've read the thread, but just confirming - The only real bug on this new Froyo rom is the (tiny) non-vibrating softkeys.

So camera works? Flashlight works? (I note that the market update clearly works)

Just confirming, because I use Flashlight / Camera every day and don't feel like getting stuck on a non-downgradeable ROM without those functions.

Cheers and thanks.
[Defy Android Development] naenee:
Yes, the haptic feedback is virtually non-existant on the off-screen keys.

The LED works for me when I use the camera. I have not tried using it as a flash-light, as I believe it's not designed to be on for extended amounts of time, but I do not see why it wouldn't work for that as well.
