Hello Together,
im considering to change from CM 7.1 Rc1 to the latest nightly #177. I have two questions about that.
1. Is it worth to change regarding to the performance? ( ive found no bugs on 7.1 that are annoying me, so the only reason for a change would be a performance enhancement)
2. Is there a way to Update so that there is no need to install all apps again? (i'm not sure if i can just install that over the old version)
Thx in Advance
1: Yes, definitely
2: Just install over RC without wiping anything. Everything will remain intact.

He means Cm7 Rc1
my status bar was gone after i upgrade 177 from RC1.
but it is fine after a factory data reset,
however,all my data have gone.
I have restore my data through nandroid and titinium restore but it doesnot solve the status bar problem.
Screwed up,back to RC1,the most stable room

Noob question here, I think it's a "no", but I want to ask anyway. I'm running Synergy RC2 as of early last week (LOVE IT btw..omg, gives me orgasms =P), and then they released RLS1 on the 5th. Phone is working perfectly fine, and I don't REALLY want to reset everything (text messages, programs, etc)...so is there a way to just upgrade from RC2 to the RLS1, or do I need to flash the new version and start over?
Thanks for the help community!
Make a nandroid, after that's done wipe cache/dalvik and flash RLS1. For some a minimal cache wipe works just fine. If you start to experience problems you will infraction need to do a full wipe or just restore your nand backup. Only way to really know is to try it.
There have been some instances where I only did the minimal and it worked perfectly fine, other times I had to do a full wipe. I went from rc1 to rls1 with a minimal wipe and it's been running without a hitch!

Hello all , i have a big problem with every MIUI ROM from 1.7.x to 1.8x :/ , sometimes when i am listening to music and unlock my screen , some things immediately stop working.Music wont play , its shown that the song is played but its not , sometimes just force closes , Lockscreen doesnt work , 4-Way Reboot Mod doesnt work , Calling People also doesnt work , i am on MIUI 1.8.5 v.3: by MrGarark , did a full wipe before flashing , just restored my SMS/MMS/Contacts with MyBackUp. Any Help ?
Hi there,
I have been using MIUI ROMs since right back at the start of 1.7xx series and so far I haven't experienced any of the problems you've identified?
As a suggestion...I would try doing another full wipe and re-installation and see if the problems persist.
Cheers,
Jaybo

I've had a lot of problems restoring SMS/MMS/Contacts through titanium backup when moving to new roms. I recently installed MIUI and kept getting constant FC's after restoring my SMS/MMS/Contacts, so it could be a similar issue with MyBackUp?
Maybe try a full wipe, reinstall then test everything before restoring any backups.
Try Honey3D sense 3.0, everything's working, battery life is awesome, it's been 2 days since I charged my phone and I am still left with 20%. European ROMs rock, Chinese ROMs suck based on my experience.

MIUI has better battery life than Honey3D, a lot better, I know this from personal experience. Besides, Honey3D has been discontinued so its pointless if its not going to receive any updates in the future.
Anyway, back to the OP...
I am having no issues at all with 1.8.5 v3 but I was having similar problems to you when flashing 1.7.29 last week, it was fine until I restored my settings, contacts, etc, that's when it started with the problems

I'd wipe all the caches, dalvik included and then reinstall the rom followed by a permission fix. Good luck and don't give up.
Try not to stick with one ROM.. try different Roms. Evaluate which ones better suits you. I think it's very biased to say which Rom is the best. It all depends on personal use how ya use. Some devices may not handle the same way as others.
I have used MIUI . It's very fast ROM. But still have alot of bugs because its beta version not stable. version. Secondly I don't like it's iPhone look.
But it's good to post your query under Rom development so other users and developer read it.
Nonetheless I don't have good experience with battery life either. Again it all depends on different devices.

Restoring data over different roms is not recommended, especially when changing from sense to aosp rom due to different system architecture.
For those who are upgrading from 1.7.x to 1.8.x, as stated above, simple cache and dalvik cache wipe is enough. But due to some users experiencing problems in upgrading, simply back up the data using miui backup app, and restore it over fresh installed rom.

I had a similar problem, what I found was when restoring b/u from MIUI backup that's when everything went wrong. I did a wipe and factory reset then loaded MIUI, I then reverted to my Titanium b/u and have had no more problems. I think for me the problem was the miui backup causing all the forced errors.
Hey fellas, its been a long time since i have been on 7.1 stable, and was wondering if i should upgrade to one of the newer nightlies..can anybody tell me which of the latest nightlies is better than CM7.1 stable and i should flash??i have a green lens defy and i want the camera to be working..a link to the nightly will be appreciated..thanks
hey dude i would recommend download.cyanogenmod.com/get/cm_jordan_full-63.zip its the latest nightly and i'v been using it for long time now on my greenlens defy and its actually very stable too good luck
press thanks lol
original link http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=umts_jordan
Mine works beautifully with the CM7.2 12-04 nightly, also green lens. Very fast.
lately been playing with ICS, but keep going back and forth (just wipe, install CM7/9 kernel, restore nandroid) because currently camera and a few other things not yet ready on ICS
Look here:
so all i need to do is wipe cache and delvik, flash the nightly and wipe cache and delvik again, right??

No! lol you just wipe data and cache chose install zip from card and reboot thats it
if it stuck at CM7 Logo just take out battery and reboot and ur good
why do we have to wipe data? wont i lose everything? when i upgraded from RC1.5 to 7.1, i didnt wipe data..
I'm not really sure why but it didn't work for me , but if you want you can try without wiping , or try to search xda for any thread about that gl.

okay i flashed the nightly u recommended...did it the way i normally do [wiped cache and delvik]..but i am facing an issue with it...the 2g mobile data [mobile internet] was working when i initially flash this update, but later it stopped working..wifi is working but 2g internet isnt..rebooted my handset quite a few times but didnt help me in any way..any idea what i can do..
Yea I had this problem too , try defy base band switcher which comes with rom already and chose which network suites you and try re-check the apn if they are correct, enable data background , if they did work at the first time so it must work again GL .

Market Place Icon is missing.
Followed exzacklyright's hacksungs ICS 6.1 build instructions to the bone. Didn't miss anything. As this is my first smartphone i was double sure not to. Can't post the link yet as i don't have 8 posts. If you need it i'll pm it to you or a google search should pull it up.
Am i missing something? Is there a way to just download the marketplace app? Thanks for any and all help.
Found this file "Market3027-signed.zip". I got into CWM, i installed the zip, tried to reboot, but i keep getting sent back into CWM or boot loop i guess u could call it. Going to start from scratch and install it right along with gapps7.1 like in the instructions. Hopefully that works.
Hacksung build 6.1 actually has quite a few bugs, I would recommend build 6

gapps7.1 is the correct gapps for build 6.0. I also would recommend it, 6.1 introduces bugs
If you do decide to go with build 6 and your mms doesn't work, then give me a hollar and I will tell you how to get it working. Other than that every feature works fabulous and very smooth

Actually I'm running 6.1 right now for 3 days now and no bugs at all. Using cm9 stock kernel and ec09 modem.6.1 fixed mms for me, the only build that has it working. What bugs are you guys having?

At first flash of 6.0, I could not send or receive pics. Then I noticed after attached pic, I could toggle GPS ( no idea why ) and the pic would send. I wiped dalvik and cache then fixed permissions and now , 2nd day all works flawless. Also had the "flickering" WIFI but now that to has cleared up.

So your running build 6 and it's running smooth? Mms working? If not download set dns from the market, then choose "custom" and leave dns1 as 8.8.8.8 and dns2 66.174.92.214

On 6.1 i had, after my phone went to sleep i would have to toggle airplane mode in order to get 3g or wifi working.
Hm, strange since 6.1 + glitch v14 B3 is working great for me, wifi and everything.
Sounds like the OP forgot to flash gapps. I did notice even just upgrading from 6 > 6.1 (without data wipe) I had to reflash gapps. Figured they would still be there since I didn't wipe data but apparently not.

6.0 has google apps included by default. Taken from the rootzwiki page:
Download
Build 6.1: http://tinyw.in/5Mlu (md5: fd6fc91cda6e98aa8eb6ab808f98e2d3)
GAPPS NOT INCLUDED!

I have to agree with K_nivesout. I had to reflash Gapps 7.1 when I moved from 6 to 6.1. Not sure if this is the norm YMMV.

Um hello? didn't you read my post? the rootwiki post clearly states "GAPPS NOT INCLUDED!"
I just figured that since I didn't wipe data, my google apps might still be there. There was never a question of whether or not they were included with 6.1, chill out man.

same here with 6.1 and glitch v14... whenever you flash a rom the gapps apk's are replaced with the current rom you flashed.

Lol I just figured that since I just told you gapps wasn't included, that you wouldn't wonder why they disappeared
When I was using CM7, I wouldn't have to re-flash gapps after updating the rom (unless data was wiped of course). By your logic, since they weren't included in the rom zips that I flashed, I would've had to re-flash gapps (which I didn't). What's the explanation for this?
Well apparently, cyanogenmod changed something. Or teamhacksung did maybe

The explanation is its not CM7, so it may have different issues. Whatever its just 1 min more of flashing... No big deal

Hey guys!
At first I'm new here and from germany, so don't be mad for my english.
I have CM9 running on my Defy and want to upgrade to CM10 Jelly Bean-Defy Builds by quarx or Epsylon3.
In no case I wan't to lose my messages on the phone and all the other things.
Do I need to do a full data wipe, installing CM10?
And does anyone have got a link for Jellybean Gapps without a torrent in it? In Quarx CM10 Thread only is a torrent link.
Thanks!

I went from latest quarx cm9 to cm10 today without wiping. The phone did the application optimising before completing boot and I still had all my apps. I'm not sure I'd recommend it though. Some of my system settings weren't properly set after upgrading.

I went from ICS to JB without wiping data, just cache and Dalvik-cache. It worked, in the sense that the phone booted and seemed to work, but after using it for a day I found it got really slow; applications were taking a long time to launch, and some stopped responding completely.
I saved my messages and performed a full wipe (data, cache, Dalvik-cache) and then flashed JB and Gapps again. This time, the phone ran much faster and after 2 days it hasn't had any slowdowns.
So, you can _try_ to upgrade without wiping, you won't lose data and the phone will be useable, but I strongly recommend doing a full wipe.
Thank you, guys!
I think I'll give it a try.
What about the GApps? Do anyone have a link for that?
i have installed it over cm9(wipe cache only)..its works really good at moment.
I don't really know if I want to try it... :/
Yesterday after several attempts, had to do a full data wipe... It was bootlooping. Now works pretty well!

Yesterday I flased CM10 (25/07) and I only do a wipe chace and clear devilk cache before flash CM10 and then gapps for Jelly Bean. You can find gapps for Jelly Bean here goo.im/gapps/gapps-jb-20120726-signed.zip
One of my friends also has got a Defy running CM9-ICS now and he will try it for me if I have to wipe.
My Question is answered. Ummm don't know if necessary, but thread close is ok
Thx Guys!
Just shifted for ICS to jb....first of all the bootanimation remained the same ...the one showing cynogen 9

The App-Startup animation is different from ICS. When you take a picture it slides to the side after taking it. In Gallery the Images are now seemed to be stacked, like the page changing animation in App Drawer. The Statusbar is different and many other changes... Like the menu guidance and so on.
