[Q]ICS ROM clarification

Hi Now am using 2.3.7 version and kernal 2.6.32.9-gb in my defy,
Am planing to install ICS 4.0.3.What kernal should download?
Becoz i already tried Mar 3 build but its stucked many times and getting restarted again so pls tel the correct methods and kernal.GApps.
Can any one help me?

If you have gingerbread kernel you need to install a Defy+ build. If you have a normal defy, I think you need to install batery fix as well. I'll try to find it. Defy+ builds work well with red lense defys, but I don't think camera works for green lense users.

Thanks...so shall I install defy + build...and kernal link available separately....what is the use of those kernal...how. and wat should be install

You already have a kernel. Or else you wouldn't be able to use the phone. You've already told me that you have a gingerbread kernel. So don't bother flashing a new one.
Gapps is on first page for main CM9 thread. Battery fix is somewhere in the thread :-/ Look around page 300

CM9 Kernel gives bootloader error. It's for froyo kernel users only (as far as i've understood)
DON'T flash it! It will soft brick your phone!

I hope all doubts over
CM9 builds,gapps & battery fix is enough to my phone to run ICS.
Have to flash above three things?
Am i right?

Yup, that should be it.

If you mean anything else to install, then no. Does charging work?

That is true. I have a Defy+ and I installed the CM9 kernel. It soft bricked my phone and I had to do a SBF flash, root CWM recovery and all things all over!! Flash the CM9 built for Defy+ by Quarx. It does restarts and freezes ocassionally but is okay otherwise for a beta version!!

I have a green lens too and I'm happy with CM9, build from 06.04 by Epsylon3 with Froyo kernel (keep in mind that it's still in early development, so you might experience bugs, errors and crashes - I didn't had any though). It also has working 3G (if not, try to move around basebands).
Trimis de pe Defy CM9

Flashed the rom u suggested, flashed gapps but gtalk won't connect unless on wifi. What gapp have u flashed? Thanx
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA

The latest ones for ICS - 20120317.
Try to clear data and cache for GTalk - it may fix the problem.

Try latest defy rom. I believe it has working 3g and wifi. I have red lense defy and both works.

best data connectivity on this rom

Just to confirm again, the epsylon 1104+ build mentioned above has the best connectivity to date for me. This one's a real keeper.

Which lens red/green and which build you flashed quarx/eppy? For green use eppy froyo builds, for red you can use defy/defy+ builds with appropriate kernels.
Did you try wiping cache of camera app?

[Q] What is the most stable ICS-based ROM for Defy

I have a Defy with green lens and I have the latest WIUI V4 installed. It works good for me because the camera and video recorder are working but there's no radio, the gps can't find my location and the battery gets drained too fast when using wi-fi (as compared to MIUI Pikachu or WIUI Hybrid). So which ICS-based ROM works best for you? Thanks.

Epsylon3 CM9. Only panorama doesn't work...
Sent from my MB525 using XDA

seconded - epsylon
I'm running 120617 and it's more stable than the various cm7s I used before

+1 for Epsylon3's CM9 ROM.

Ditto

Which version? The latest?

The latest has reboots use the second to last one. I find fuzz builds better tho. The latest fuzz build is stable enough, as in no reboots.

+1 to 0617 build of Epsylon3's CM9

Sent from my MB525 using XDA

is this still the most stable ICS ? I have suddenly started having problems with my wifi (despite havng this build for several months now).
Could upgrade to CM10 but not that keen due to the hassle of reloading apps, losing settings etc.
Cheers

I only have the question: is whitexp still working on his CM project. I have read the last posts of the CM9 thread and now I'm confused
Thanks for all answers

I don't believe cm9 can go anywhere due to lack of drivers
I think he is still working on cm7
