[Q] what's the differences between cm7_defy and defyplus - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

what's the differences between cm7 for defy and defyplus?
Can defyplus used the defy-cm7?

that not the same battery and the kernel is adapted for that

Defy builds uses froyo kernel whereas defy + builds uses gingerbread kernel. to install defy versions on defy +, you need to install bl6 group and flash, however battery may not charge tohundred percent. The defy + builds can be used by defy red lens and regular defy +. Green lens defy will have problems with camera if we flash defy + bulls, green bread mod may work on few roms.
I'm having defy red lens and using cm72 defy + builds with Walter 4.5.3-109 kernel which gives best battery life.

which sbf you used?
I flashed the DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-132 O2.en.DE with CM7 and cannt boot up with the Walter 4.5.3-109 kernel (and any other kernel ).
I can only used the 4.5.1-134_DFP-132 kernel .
sorry for my poor english!

If you have *redlens* defy you can flash Quarx CM72 builds with walter kernel. The 4.5.3-109 kernel gives good battery life which you can use with 0316 builds. FOr ealier releases this kernel will give bootloop (this issue Quarx fixed from 0316 onwards) so you flash 4.5.2.109-dht_22 kernel.
The build can get from http://quarx2k.ru/cm7-nightly-defy+/ you can install CM9 kernel for it boot. Later you can change the kernel for better battery life.
The walter kernels are attached down - which you can flash via CWM.

Thanks!
I flashed the chinese bl=6 2.2sbf
then I can use the 4.5.3-109-11 kernel with cm7.
By the way which build is better between Quarx and Epsylon3 's.
Iam using Quarx 's 0314 now,it's great work.
And I was told that Epsylon will release the cm7 RC1 this week end.
which one would you preferred???

Well, quarx epsylon and maniac have different private builds.all of them have same base with little differences. You can use any of them, they will finalize and merge to stable when it's released.I use quarx cm72 defy + builds.

Hya, I know I am a n00b, but we all have to start . I must be doing something stoopid, as I am stuck at Motorola boot logo.
I have a defy red lenses (confirmed both visual and with log analyzer).
I have installed CM9 kernel, and I can boot latest defy+ quarx rom (30-30)no problem, but once I install 4.5.3 kernel, I am stuck at the big red M.
Also, when I boot CM9 signed kernel, returns 2.6.32.9...isn't this Froyo? Shouldn't be Gingerbread? I must be doing something obviously wrong, but I cannot find anything in the forums....

Which one is it cm9 build or cm72 build? I guess cm9 binaries not updated, anyway Try installing dht22 kernel, cm9 is GB kennel only don't get confused by looking at 2.6...

Sorry, gave for granted I was talking about CM9.
I attach screenshot of the about page with Rom, Android & Kernel detail...maybe I am searching for something that is not there (already there?), and I am already as high I can go? Thx for the help!

[Q]Latest/Best Kernels for Froyo and Gingerbread

For the sake of updatedness, what are the best kernels for Froyo and Gingerbread?
Also, I flashed a GB kernel to try out a CM9 build. Now I want to install the official 7.2 RC. I need to flash a Froyo kernel again right?
There are no custom kernels for the defy as it has a locked bootloader, only the official signed motorola ones, the froyo which came with defy and gb which came with defy+.
For cm7 you need froyo kernel, just reflash it. Cm9 have 2 builds - one for froyo kernel and one for gb kernel. I think the green lense defys may only work with froyo kernel.

What abt the DHT kernel from Walter. I think its not ripped from defy or defy+.
It is used in Motoginger roms
Hi, sorry for my first noob question ...
Quite the same question as the original :
I found here on the github (I can't post link) that 2.2.2-177 & 2.2.2-179 have a different Kernel hashes 2.6.32.9-ga28fcc4 or 2.6.32.9-gb08c3c8.
I thought the latest CM7.2 were containing the lastest kernel id 179.
When I look at mine I have 2.6.32.9-ga28fcc4, which seems to be 177 ...
I'm actually on cm7.2 20120509-NIGHTLY-jordan, from the official nightlies ...
here (on the dowload page from Epsylon3, can't post ...) i found the 179 kernel, would it be necessary to flash it in order to have a matching kernel with the lastest nightlies ?
Only talking of froyo kernels ...

So do I think. However some people are often saying that they flashed a cm9 or whatever kernel... what do they mean by this.
P.S.: There are some attempts to boot another kernel with the help of kexec/2ndboot, but currently only with minor succes afaik.

[Q] Gingerbread based CM?

Sorry if this sounds like a noob question. Is there a CM7 or 9 ROM which is based on gingerbread kernel (e.g. 4.5.3-109_DPP-11)? The reason I ask is that I really like CM7 functionality, but have heard that gb kernel based roms (like ms2ginger) have awesome battery life. If there is such a ROM, does it have battery life comparable to ms2ginger?
Cm7.2 or cm9 defy+ builds work on gingerbread kernel. You can use 4.5.2.109 dht 22 kernel, which ms2ginger uses, and with it either cm72 or cm9 gives similar battery life. You can find the kernel link in Walters ms2ginger thread, if any difficulty tell me I can upload for u.
For quarx builds goto HTTP://quarx2k.ru
For eppy builds goto HTTP://defy.wdscript.fr

Thanks! Now I just have to figure out which one to use between Quarx and Epsilon..
I couldn't find the thread or topic for Quarx/Eppy's gb bases CM7.2. Does someone have the link?

[Q] Defy+ CM7.2 on Defy stuck on boot

I'm on MS2Ginger 4.0 on red lens defy and was interested to move to CM7.2 with the same kernel. I came to know that Defy+ CM have gingerbread kernel. So I downloaded the Defy+ CM7.2 from http://www.defy-cm.net/defy_plus-cm7-nightly/ and tried with walter's kernel, but the phone got stuck on boot with the M logo. So I went back to ms2ginger. Today I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398031 which provides a CM7 kernel, but even after using it I got stuck on boot. Can someone recommend me how I can get the Defy+ cm7.2 on my defy. Thanks!
You can get cm72 from quarx builds which fixed this issue, there used to be a problem with 2ndint 2ndboot binary files which quarx fixed and probably eppy build is old and doesn't contain those changes.
Goto http://quarx2k.ru and navigate to cm72 and download and install. I have red lens defy on which i always prefer roms work with walters kernel 4.5.2.109_dht_22. If i remember correctly ihad run cm72 with your similar kernel

Great! Will give that a try... can you tell me how was the battery life with that rom and kernel combo?
Thanks bro! Got it working with Quarx build... now let's see if battery life is comparable to ms2ginger..

ROM Builds for Motorola Defy (Bayer / Red)

H! Guys,
After months of flashing i discovered (N00b :silly that i can flash Defy+ builds on my Defy (Red) and use Kernel - 4.5.2_DHT-22 and i get Battery life of more than 30 Hrs.....
So i just wana confirm i can flash any Defy+ build (CM7/ ICS / CM10) and use above kernel ???

Yes, I'm using Quarx's Defy+ CM9 on my red lens Defy with the kernel and it's working great and I get more than 48 hours of battery life with normal use.

In Defy > General forum there's a thread about Quarx CM9 builds for Froyo and GB kernel. In the first post there's a patch for Defy red lens using Defy+ roms. I suggest you can try that. Did you took a nandroid backup before flashing that rom, if the patch does not work, try restoring it. I have never faced the battery issue, probably because I used Quarx's CM7 builds. Never tried Fuzz's, and now am scared to..

CM9 Kernel?

warning noob alert!
I dont get it with the flashable cm9 kernel thats needed for cm9, i have cm9 now but wondered if i have gb kernel or not after flashing the cm9 kernel cause inte the system info it says 2.6.32 which is froyo kernel? and if thats true then i dont have 4vsels only 3 right? do i have to use the nandroid and fixed .sbf tog get 2.3.4 and true gb kernel och does the cm9 kernel flashable zip really work? it really bugs me i want to know and i cant seem to find the answer...
sorry if the question i confusing.
Defy red lense running CM9 MIG 1.0
Every CM9 rom is based on the same kernel(base) 2.2.2
Just like CM7.
So, CM7 kernel includes some kernel fixes reqiured for rom to work on green/red lens MB525 devices
CM9 kernel doesn't change kernel version, it also includes fixes so it can work on 4.5.x sbfs, but the rom is still based on 2.2.2
I don't think that you have to downgrade anything.
Just flash CM9 or (I recommend) CM10 plus version, and after that (or before) flash cm9 kernel zip.
on http://defy.wdscript.fr/ you can find different kernels. Two for the defy and two for the defy+.
In the past, I've tried both kernels on my defy.
just download the kernel defy(+) you would test. install the kernel via recovery first, and after that, the Rom.
but remember:
on defy kernels, only defy roms work.
On defy+ kernels, dass only defy+ roms work.
As I remember, we on defy+ kernel I got four vsel entries.

Hi !
With defy green lens you have to flash the CM7 kernel.
With defy red lens U can flash CM9 kernel like as defy+.
That's aLL
