[Q] How to Upgrade - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have one doubt in upgrade.
If I installed any one ICS build after that how can I upgrade to next build without flash?
Is it possible...

Put the new build.zip in your sd, reboot the phone, blue light and stock recovery...
It's pretty intuitive then.

This is also similar to flash...I know this one other method? Becoz every time have to install software

You dont need to do a wipe!!
I made a How To on the bugreport/questions thread... read that...(That is the only way!)
And Huge thanks for making this thread in dev section! really appreciate what u did!!

Questions do not go in the Dev section

Thanks for your support
So No NEED TO WIPE data and cache? Am i right?
So no need to install applications again?

Wipe cache and dalvik cache but not data, and u keep your apps.

Yes, but next time please ask questions like this in the thread for the rom that you want to switch to as this question did not warrant the starting of a new thread! We already have way to many threads like this cluttering up the forums!

ok sorry. So all I do is boot into recover and wipe cache then install?

For me I leave it on charge and at 100% I boot into recovery wipe cache, devlik cache, then factory reset but you may get buy without having to do factory reset since although different it still is cm 7 but if you don't factory reset and it won't boot do a factory reset then it should boot

It does support them but not as a blur rom does cm7 puts internal under mnt/emmc and I think miui best I remember is the opposite. But mods can be done to switch them.

Which is a good rom for the nook

Hello xda , im currently running cm7 i know really old built. I purchased this nook a year back but its just been sitting in my drawer and dont pay much attention to it. I want to install a different rom but i dont know which one its the most stable one for you guys. Please help with this. Thank you.

I have tried them all and keep coming back to the MiRaGe rom in the development section. It just can't be beat! Try it and see if it's what you are looking for.
Sent from my NookColor using xda premium
Or just try some ICS rom for the latest look and features. But don't expect the speed and the full hardware acceleration that the mature CM7 can provide.
Produced by NookColor at CM9 4.0.4

So since i didn't install cm7 on this nook i just have to download this into the sd card that has clockworkmod, wipe and flash right?
Thank you for your help.
Yes, this is the one. Be sure to wipe data, system and cache before installing rom.
This thread has some great instructions and settings to use with the rom.

Hi guys little help

Hi my friend has the defy and has been sent a replacement by Tmobile as original was faulty. It has come back with 2.3.3 on it and its so much slower now. My question is will rooting it and instaling cm9 etc speed it up a lot?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Hey
If he wants a system that runs very stable and also smooth, he should give CM7 a try.
I wouldnt recommend CM9 since its death on the defy.
CM10 has come to a point where its very usable, ive been using it in the past weeks and i had not a single problem with it
Thanks for the reply dude. Iv rooted with super one click but everytime I try flash CWM I get stuck in boot loops any idea? I use RDS to go back to start again and keep trying but same old carry on

Hope that you're wiping data, cache and dalvik cache after flashing via CWM.
I can't get cwm to install aha I'm going to try 2ndint apk
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yup. You need to install 2ndinit to get CWM onto a stock ROM.

[Q] freeze - CM10 Sister Jelly Bean V3.1.6 | Defy / Defy+ | 20/03/2013 (LM.)

Guys i have problems with JB SISTER.
I dont know why, but i can not post in defy developer.... then i'll post here.
Thread JB SISTER: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192807
My problems with this version: frequent LAG, freeze when i open any app. The only way for restart android is remove the battery. Ah yes! the boot takes too long to start. Too long!!
Well, i had before this version Quarx version (4.1.1), and i only wiped data and flashed above it.
Then i think: I'll back to stock rom.
Following instructions, i back to retail stock android, because i did not want more problems. After this, i flashed the JB SISTER.
This time, freeze are less frequent but, when i open two or more apps, the system freeze fully, then i remove battery and it all starts again. The problem of boot takes too long continues.
I wonder if anything succeed solve this problem.
Anyway, i think of changing this version totally unstable.
Thanks so much.
nope bro i oo did tat wipe and made it proper which made me not to install fursquare and lots many apps ... which says ur not allowed to install itseems ...yukkk ..remaining everything is awe and faster not a single lag for me MB526 motorola defy + JB sister

Now i am stuck in Moto Logo and RSD Lite is not detecting my phone as well.
I have the drivers installed and yet nothing happens.
What should i do?
Sorry for asking such n00b questions.

I was facing the same problem when i first found this thread. Then i just went to performance option in settings and checked . I found that cpu governance was set to interactive. I changed that to ondemand and my problem got solved.
Hope this helps you.

Google Maps Force Closing

Hi all lately when I have been using a custom rom on my S4 is force closing Google Maps. I even did a full wipe and fresh install I am beginning to think it may be the actual App and not my phone.
I was just curious if anyone else had the same experiences as me?
Cheers
Please post this in the S4 forum.

Shouldn't it be cleared after a fresh install?
It won't let me until I have made the correct amount of posts! Been a long time lurker on here!
I did another complete fresh install and still no joy!
However I do get an error in recovery saying cannot open cache/recovery . log or something along those lines!
