[Q] CM7.1 eating up Memorycard space - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello members.
I just found a strange issue that I have started facing lately whenever I try to flash a custom ROM on my Defy.
Current stock ROM was 2.2.2
I rooted it and tried This ROM. After flashing I realized that the ROM is slowly slowly eating up my space on my sd card. I checked my sd and it showed an ANDROID folder with all app backed up.
I tried playing with the Install location in Cynogenmod settings but still no help.
Tried Internal, Auto , External options but still nothing
Then I changed the ROM to 2.3.7 posted by Quarx hoping it would solve my issue but I had same issue again.
Please tell me what do I do ?
I want to use custom ROMs real bad :3

Still waiting for a response. :/

[Q] Phone App Missing or GApps Stops

I have been running android on my HD2 all year and have never had any major problems until today.
I am currently running Typhoon CM7 v3.4.1 but I am interested in giving Hyperdroid CM7 another try. Every time I flash it I am either missing the phone app or I get a message about GApps stopping unexpectedly. I have tried both v2.1.0 and v2.0.1, I then tried MIUI.us 1.7.1 and had the same problem, no phone app installed.
I have done task29, re downloading roms, transferring them onto the phone using different methods, tried different versions of CWM (v3.0.0.5 & v3.2.0.0) and I have also tried flashing a WM6.5 rom and then coming back to Android and nothing helps.
I have also tried clean install without restoring data and with restoring data.
I have a backup of my current Typhoon v.3.4.1 and I can restore this and everything works fine.
Does anyone have any other ideas?
I'm not sure what else to try.
thanks.
Edit: If I log into my Google account straight after a fresh install on hyperdroid I get an error about acore stopping. If I don't log in straight away everything works until I log in and then I get an error about gapps framework stopping.
Edit: I managed to downgrade to Typhoon 3.4.0 while keeping user data. Can't successfully flash any other rom. I guess I will have to stick with this rom. Not such a bad thing, just need to get over my flashing addiction.
I have now tried to format the sd card which didn't help
I tried to flash a stock wm6.5 rom with the stock SPL but I couldn't get it to flash using the sd card method.
I tried clk instead of magldr and every time I get the same issue with the gapps framework.
Does anyone have any ideas?
I am guessing that there might be some corrupted data on the nand but I don't know how to check.

[Q] [SOLVED] No service or battery status after installing latest Cyanogenmod 7

Tried searching the forum but couldn't find anything similar.
I rooted my ideos x5 with super one click, installed clockwork mod (perfect recovery by genekolar) and then installed genekolar's newest cyanogenmod [unofficial]. Tried installing 2 times with different downloads, wiping everything both times but I get no service or battery status. I checked my sim card, battery, booted the phone multiple times and checked my APN settings, the phone just doesn't find anything.
I would like to have gingerbread on my phone without installing the official one.
I also tried the MIUI rom but it stuck to the booting screen blasting that welcome jingle full volume every 3 seconds.
Any solutions?
Thanks!
This has been written for 1000000 times. You must update to official 2.3.5 if you want to use .35 kernel ROMs. If locked bootloader is what scares you then you dont need to worry because blefish already found a way to unlock it (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1457490). If you still dont want to update to offcial 2.3.5 then you can use .32 kernel ROMs
Oh, my search-fu wasn't good enough this time. Being noob 'n all. Thank you for informing me! I'll change this to solved and leave it here if anyone else is having the same problem
Thank you!!

[Q] Everything gone wrong.

It's currently 7am on monday morning, and I have college. I haven't slept at all because my [red lens] defy has been giving me problems.
I've been trying to re-flash CM7 to get a clean install of it, with no frills/apps that I've installed over time.
I've done a factory reset through CWM, and re-flashed CM7.1 from here:
http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=umts_jordan
I've tried finding GApps for this, but to no avail. None of them install properly (CWM says they have, but actually hasn't - It's nowhere on my app drawer/home/manage apps).
I've tried adding an account to sync but when it asks what google products I want to install (such as YouTube, Maps, StreetView), it crashes mentioning "process com.teamdouche.pacman"
That's problem 1
Problem 2 is my Home and Search button no longer work! I've tried everything I could google for, but nothing has helped.
[Edit: they do vibrate, but nothing happens]
Any help on these matters would be much appreciated, as this is really annoying :/ Thanks.
Also I've just realised the apps in Manage Applications are all my old apps, even though I've actually formatted my SD card in CWM since, each has a SD card icon, and is taking up 0.00B space,but I'm just wondering how they even show there..
Did you try flashing the CM7 kernel ?
Or did you mount /system ?
Herpderp Defy.
Here's my About Phone info:

Do you have a link to the CM7 Kernel? :S
System is mounted
I've managed to get Market installed, but it only opens once, and when I try to download something it Force Closes, and then after that it force closes when I open it.
Flash stock rom for noow ....
Sent from my MB525 using XDA App
dude, restore stock room, and try flashing an official cm7, what i think is that the room that you flashed is corrupted or something like that
1º: Reflash a stock room
2º: Get a official stable CM7 room ( http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=umts_jordan )
3º: Don't forget to wipe all data, cache and dalvik cache.
4º: See if that works and thank me for this
EDIT:
Here is a link to Gapps, just in case (http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip )
good luck with your defy

Custom kernel problems

Hi
I have regular defy with red lens.
I have flashed some time ago new Quarx rom with custom kernel from WIUI JB rom.
After that I am unable to flash any non custom kernel builds. Even when I did a full wipe and flashed Froyo kernel with CM7, I got stucked in boot-loop. I even can't go to Stock recovery.
Now I am running recent Quarx build, but during the boot my led light is red. Also the rom is quite unstable, and crashes quite lot whitch I think is not the problem of the rom, but problem with the phone.
I also tried to use different custom kernel with no success. Also I searched this forum for some answer with the same result.
I have never flashed any SBF to my phone, I have ever used nandroid backup.
(I got my phone with Eclair, but after I got my phone from warranty repair I got Froyo)
I'll probably try to solve this problem by flashing Froyo SBF and try it again.
Thank you for help.
EDIT:
When I tried to flash WIUI JB again, strange thing happen. It flashed normally but ROM did not see internal memory and crashed after RAM got full. Also recovery had listed some errors.
Another custom kernel roms also work, but with the same problem as CM10.
I have also set correct setting for rom in bootmenu (2nd boot or 2nd init).

No Audio after installing Custom Rom

Hello guys,
i tried to install a custom rom and i actually managed it to work. After 2 days i noticed, that there is no sound (not even with headphones). Im not sure what to do now cause i didnt do a backup and i tried so many things but the audio doesnt work. When i installed the custom Rom, i formated the data on the phone, was that a bad idea?
Is there a way to fix this, i have no idea what to do.
Thanks guys
hi
whay dont you tray to restore the stock rom?
using sd card and /dload folder..
just a thougth, i am no expert whatsoever
I've had this issue and I'm not sure the cause.
I fixed it once by using KingOfMezi's TWRP and stock firmware compilation.
