[Q] update my rom... which one?

need to stick a better rom than the one i am running on the phone at the moment as it is quite old now and hasnt been updated for ages. i am currently using one of the camera mods to enable my green lense camera to shoot high def.
i see the greenbread mod will allow me the chance to have high def video recording on a gingerbread rom and so my question is.
which 2.3 rom should i choose that works with the greenbread mod, that will give good battery life (minimum of 24 hours medium useage), that is fast, stable and if possible can be themed?
thanks in advance

Which ROM are you on at the moment?

You can take last CM7 nightlies, battery drain is solved and it's the fastest ROM.
If you want an official ROM, take CEE or Nordic.

rom on at the moment is the old leaked froyo 3.4.2.117.
Is cee or nordic 2.3? i thought they were 2.2.
thought about cm7 but i dont think greenbread mod works on there. correct me if i am wrong cos if i am then i will jump on the cm7 bandwagon gladly.

Sorry, sorry and sorry !
Yes, CEE and Nordic are 2.2 and yes, greenbread mod doesn't work yet on CM7...

Try this Rom >>

where can I find this? The cyanogenmod nightlies section is blank on their website?

Sometimes it wobbles under load (lots of people downloading) - wait a while and try again ... http://defy.tanguy.tk/jordan-nightly/ is the one I use and its pretty damn reliable overall....

thanks bud i will give it a go.
it amazes me the number of replies from people who dont actually read the op properly!
i may yet try cm7...
does anybody know if i can enable the camera mod for the green lens that allows 848x640 video? i am using that mod at the moment and it works perfect. in all honesty if i could enable this then i would more than likely go with cm7.
so if anyone knows let me know if not the rom above looks like the winner.

[Q] Defy+ on defy rom?

hi everyone
just a quick question
if i get myself a defy+, can i still install and run all the beautiful "defy" roms available on this forum?
Many thx

The best answer is:
Make a back up and try it yourself
Of course at your own risk
I recommend CM7.1 as its my favorite

Yep, it must work, but you will have some problems with the kernels, because Defy+ is a GB based in GB Kernel and the CM7 is a GB based on Froyo Kernel, maybe you have problems with battery, cause the Defy has a small one, and you can*t record in 720p cause the Froyo kernel!

You can, but you will get problems with battery, it can't charge full at defy kernels.

ok thx everyone

cm7.2 and cm9 is available for defy+
miui wont boot
ms2ginger will work
argen2stonw will work...
others u try...

Hi, i am sorry if this question was answered somewhere,I didn't find it. I am using cm7.2 on my defy+ (not the latest because flip camera problem). I was expected that when i install cm7.2 for defyplus charging will be ok, but it stuck on 85%. Is it right? This issue persist? Or i doing something wrong? I'm planning wipe battery stats,but I'm not sure it will help.
I'm new in Android since xmas,so sorry for maybe dumb question

Thats ok, it happens because the battery on defy+ has more capacity than the defy, and the batt libs on cm7.2 are for defy+!

DEFY+ (MB526) - a guide for the beginners

As the number of DEFY+ owners slowly reaches the number of regular DEFY ones, it's becoming an every day thing to see someone brick his DEFY+ because he flashed a Froyo only ROM. I'm not mad about the fact, I know that it's all confusing when you're doing it for the first time and that's why I'm going to try and make things a bit easier.
1. Introductory information
DEFY+ = Overclocked Bayer lens DEFY and a higher capacity battery
*If you haven't read it already, read the great All-in-One Defy Beginner's guide written by Zephyrot!*
1.1 Downgrading / "bootloader version" issues
-DEFY+ comes with "bootloader version" 6 or 7. What does "bootloader version" mean? Every Motorola .sbf file is made up of many code groups (short: CG) which contain different part of the phone's operating system (kernel, system files, multimedia files etc.). Those code groups are signed by Motorola (otherwise they would make the phone unable to boot when they are flashed) and one part of that signing is a version number. When you flash a .sbf on your phone you cannot flash one that contains CGs signed with number lower that those that have previously been on your phone.
*Only the latest 2.3.6 Motorola ROM's are signed as version 7*
2. Gingerbread ROMs
-Gingerbread ROM's can be flashed on to every DEFY+ that you can root and install 2nd on. No need to worry about kernels, because these ROM work on the Gingerbread kernels and, as you know, every DEFY+ comes with Gingerbread pre-installed.

3. CyanogenMod 9 by Quarx - download
4. CyanogenMod 9 by Epsylon - download
5. CM7 WhiteRabbit Plus Edition by TweetyPeety - download
6. MS2Ginger v3 by walter79 download
3. Froyo ROMs
-These ROM's are meant to work with a Froyo kernel, which is actually quite easy to get to:
..::Guide for flashing a DEFY+ down to Froyo (bl6 only)::..
*My plan for this thread:
-List of all ROM's that include DEFY+ support by the author
-A bit of information on every ROM mentioned
-Guide for installing every ROM on the DEFY+ (Gingerbread or Froyo)
-Battery fixing (so you can charge your DEFY+ battery to 100%) on any ROM
-Overclocking
-A list of version 6 and version 7 Motorola ROM's

Battery fix to the Quarx's CM9 18th march build.
i upgraded to Quarx's CM9 nightly and i had a problem with the battery..The percentage was constant..No matter how much i charge or discharge.
So i went for the defy red lens battery fix..now the battery status is displaying correctly but the battery charges only till 81%.
Any fix ?

According to my experience, the unofficial Defy+ CM7.2 and CM9 builds are running very well with this SBF, its Android version is 2.3.6. I flashed it and have no such problems with Quarx's CM7.2 and CM9 ROMs. No battery and camera fix is needed for the latest builds.

I think that Android 2.3.4 and 2.3.5 versions are so uncommon on the Defy+, that almost no one uses the kernels from these as a basis for custom ROMs. That SBF is an official Motorola firmware, if you are familiar with RSD Lite and your phone's bootloader version is 6, you should flash it, and your problems will be gone with CM. Make a nandroid backup first in case of warranty problems. After flashing you will have to root it and install 2ndInit again.

Pretty long procedure..what does stock rom have to do with custom roms?After installing the Quarx's latest nightly i flashed the CM9 kernel..Without flashing the CM9 kernel it gets stuck at the boot logo.There should be a battery fix for this.

Read this, and you will understand. In a nutshell: the kernel is responsible for the battery issue, and the kernel in your Android 2.3.4 is not fully compatible with CM7.2. The CyanogenMod builds for this phone do not contain the kernel, they use the official one that sits on your phone since you've bought it. One cannot simply change kernel on a Defy+ (locked bootloader and digital signature), the safest way to do it is to flash an official SBF with RSD Lite, which will contain the good, CM-compatible kernel.

All European DEFY+ come with 2.3.5 pre-installed! And I use one of the 2.3.5 sbf's as a basis for all Gingerbread ROM's and have no problems, just like you.
Please stop telling people to flash that 2.3.6 sbf! It's okay as I can see that it's version 6, but nevertheless, sbf flashing is not really a pleasant experience for the beginners and is considered an advanced technique. I know that it's actually a piece of cake, but it won't solve his battery problem. It won't solve anyone's battery problem, because it's called by one file only - battd.bin. Nothing to do with kernel version.

Why don't I have any problems with the battery? My base sbf is 2.3.5 and I haven't applied any battery fix.
Why didn't I have any problems with the battery when I used MIUI Pikachu Edition? It had Froyo as a base.
Kernel version has nothing to do with the battery charging problem. (added on 5th of July: this may not be correct :/ The confusion around the problem is still here.)
Quarx himself owns a DEFY+ and that's why his ROMs are DEFY+ compatible. The battd.bin file that he put's in his Gingerbread ROM's (defy+ builds of CM7.2 and CM9) contains the information about the capacity of a DEFY+ battery, not standard DEFY.

Your DEFY+ has an old 2.3.4 ROM and those ROM's have a kernel that is actually working the same as Froyo kernels. That's why you needed to flash CM9-kernel to get Quarx's DEFY+ CM9 working. (CM9-kernel = one of the Motorola's Gingerbread kernels)
What came to my mind is that your phone might actually be a DEFY flashed to a very early 2.3.4 ROM and then sold as DEFY+. That would explain why official CM7.2 RC1 charged your battery to 100%. That ROM is meant for standard DEFY and for Froyo kernel.
Please reply to my PM or write your battery model here!

Old 2.3.4 builds are known to work as base for Froyo ROM's
But the weird thing is that his battery won't charge to 100% on ROMs with the correct battd.bin for DEFY+, but it does on the ones with a battd.bin for a standard DEFY!
@krishna.kowshik Try this:
1. Open the CM7.2 RC1.zip, go to system/bin/ and then extract file battd.bin
2. Install RootExplorer on your phone (Accept the SuperUser permissions)
3. Copy that battd.bin file you extracted to somewhere on your memory card
4. Open RootExplorer, copy the battd.bin from where you've put it, go to root/system/bin press Mount R/W button, then paste the battd.bin, overwrite the previous one and finally press Mount R/O button.
5. Exit everything, turn off phone, enter custom recovery, Recovery > Custom > Advanced / Clear battery stats
6. Restart phone
Your phone should charge to 100% now! But, there's no guarantees. DEFY+ is a strange thing There are many MANY of those battd.bin files available, and some work for some people, some work for others...
Let us know if it worked!

From MIUI to CM9 . Confused abt GB & Froyo Kernel - Epsilon vs Quarx

I want to u update from MIUI to CM9 in MY DEFY.
My dbts are
1. Whats is difference between Epsilon vs Quarx Builds
2. What shuld i try GB cm9 or Froyo cm9 . (My MIUI currently show kernel as 2.6.32-gb)..
3. shuld i has to flash kernel after Flasing CM9 ROM

Hey
First of all dont use CM9! The project has stopped , Quarx and Epsy are only developing CM10 and its way better than CM9 simply get the latest Build
1.) Theyre both almost the same builds some people say Epsy's is better some say Quarx's is simply try it out(im using quarx he has more updates)
2.) You cant downgrade to the Froyo Kernel once youve been on the GB Kernel
3.) You dont need to flash a new kernel but you need to do a Fullwhipe and after the installation a cache and dalvik cache whipe

Thanks for the reply ... But i was asking which Version Wuld be suitable for me as i Have MIUI ....
And Dont knw that cm9 has stopped .. But i want a stable ROM and heard CM9 is almost bug free ...
and i dont want wanna try nigty version to jst check the ROM>.

go for the white rabbit. it is based on cm7.2 euro kang but i think has a sort miui theme sort of thing. it is the best rom i have ever used. i tired cm10 very slow and laggy compared to the slim and lean cm7. seriously you wont be missing anything by staying cm7 at least for the time being.

- does your Defy have green or red lens?
you can follow the instructions on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29003033&postcount=1
as in previous posts, CM9 is not developing any more, if you want to experience JB go with the CM10 I used both Quarx and Epsylon builds, and Epsylon's was a bit more for me...
however, for the last week I'm using AOKP build which works best (and fastest) in my case, even with Nova launcher

its red bayer module .. i find it as a yellow shade and also with the image size .

[Support] [FAQ] [BL7] working GB-based ROMs for green lens defys

Hi @ all.
I want to start a support thread for all those unlucky ones who flashed a BL7-sbf on their green-lensed defy.
NOT the Defy+ or red lens, because the green one is the one for real trouble.
I am aware that you can always install a CM10 by quarx, but I wanted to have a more smooth and stable solution.
You should verify, that you are on a BL7. If you don't know what that means, you should not be here, Do not use these rooting instruction unless you know, you are on BL7. If you're questionning here, what are advantages, or disadvantages, or how you can find out what BL you have, please leave NOW.
This thread is for those who know what's cookin'.
I cannot stress this enough - be sure. search the forums. Don't flood this with useless questions.
I'll try to keep the first posts updated regularly, so that there should be no reason to read the whole thread everytime.
Now let's get started:
1. As far as I know, Froyo is no longer an option.
So, your options start with GB ROMs plus the camera fix. Please comment if they work and how.
I am sure somebody already built such roms.
2. You can also use a 2ndboot-based CM7 build like ms2ginger.
I don't know how many of those exist.
3. What I need you for:
Please add your own rom, when you know it's working on BL7.
Please add the rom you're using, when you're on BL7 with working SOC cam.
Questions:
It would be really helpful to know if ANY GB ROM will work with the camera fix.
It would also be helpful to know, if we should use custom MB525 or MB526 builds as base rom.
Working Roms:
1. MS2Ginger
2. tbc.
3. tbc.
First try (all flashed via custom recovery):
1. I managed to get a working CM 7.2, from early may 2013 with GB Kernel. (cm72-20120506-NIGHTLY-Defy+.zip)
2. Rooted via Defy+ BL7 method (sig)
3. Sndinit 2.3 (you should use 2.0, because some said they had problems with the 2.3 version) i am writing this a week later, so I hope this is correct
5. camera did NOT work
What I did NOT get to work (yet):
1. update-CyanMobile-eXperience-Defy-20130502-Release.zip
2. WajkIUI_multilang_3.1.27.zip
3.
Unfortunately "not working" means usually no more bootups, no way to get into custom recovery for restoring or reflashing, so you'll have to start all over again:
1. Flash first sbf (sig)
2. Flash second sbf for root (sig)
3. Install SndInit 2.0
4. boot into recovery
5. flash your new flavour
...tbc

for supporters
If someone managed to get a custom ROM to work, please provide following informations:
Build# of the "wrong" sbf
sbf's used for root (there are already 2 known combinations, CN & CEE)
used SndInit (should be greater than 2.0 i guess)
full flash instructions
which recovery used for wiping
which one for flashing
how many reboots
approx. duration of the process
ROM Version and build
Information about 2nd boot or 2nd init and when to set it
Does the camera work?
Please, ONLY BL7 stucking ROMs, this is a special thread for special cases.

Thanks, but this thread is GB-based ROM's only.
I wanted to have a snappier / more responsive / smooth ROM instead of feature-rich slow/laggy ones. - See OP.
To clarify: 2.3.x-based ROM's only.
Thanks anyway.

Confirmed working. :good:

Well, sorry for huuge delays, but I am now on MoKee 34.1 because Rom lags or responsiveness is no longer an issue on Android 4.3
(OK, i missed some features as well)
I might remove the restriction of GB based Roms, but basically every 2nd Boot Rom works so i might collect only Rom trees, no single versions. Any opinions on this?

I have BL7 and i have blocked for few days in rom 2.3.6 4.5.1-134_DFP-231.
Then i have rooted it by install fixed sbf, and found a good sbf MistyOS-BL7-4.1.2.sbf (if any one want it i will upload it)
