[Q] Stable ROMs? (CM7.1/CM7.2: FAIL) - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I might be the only one here with this, cause I've read through many posts....But CM7.2 has freeze problems on my green lens defy, which I have to reboot by removing the battery. CM7.1 when I use the Camera, hangs, and have to reboot. And sometimes the same thing happens with my music player: DoubleTwist.
I love the CM Roms.. but not having solved my issues, what is out there that works? Suggestions?

Try flashing a new base froyo and do the whole process again.
Also make sure to always wipe cache/dalvik.

If I were to do this, what base froyo are we talking about.
I always do the following:
Cache, Dalvik, install zip from sdcard....reboot

I take it it's the 04/05 Nightly right and not the one that has (kobe)?

Well I installed this morning CM7.2 Stable and it has happened again....for instance when I power off, the phone lags for about 3 seconds, then it slowly animates the TV tube animation and shuts off.
I'm downloading the quark 04/05 nightly to see if that helps.
Cheers, and thanks

Hi,
that's weird. My Defy (MB525, Red Lens) works fine with 7.2 nightly. Used the Defy+ Version with 4.5.2-109_DHT-22 GB kernel. Works stable and fast...
Cheers...

Do a full wipe (data, cache) flash 7.1 zip and gapps and wipe cache and dalvik again. It should work.

Btw, defy+ builds might not work properly on your phone since the camera module is different.
Sent from my MB526 using XDA

Well the Quarx Nightly has been working well for three days now. It's much solid than the RC. It does lag a bit, but then again it might be I have a lot of open apps.
Thank you all. So far so the better of the three.
PD

hi there, i'm actually using latest official 7.2 nightly and it's running really smooth with no problems at all

[Q]How to install CM7.2 on Defy

I'm currently on the latest CM7.1 nightly but when I tried to flash the cm7.2 nightlies which are for the defy+, I got stuck at the M logo. I then flashed my old 7.1 and now it's working again. Can someone tell me what I did wrong? Also, I didn't erase data, just cache.
I think that's because defy+ uses another kernel , so when you flash cm7.2 you still having froyo kernel , i think if you flash the cm9 kernel over cm7.2 it will work! But i 'm not sure

Can you link me to both cm7 and cm9 kernels?

I packed the two different kernels into clockwork flashable packages.
1. Flash either a nightly or restore a nandroid.
2. Flash either CM7_Kernel-signed.zip or CM9_Kernel-signed.zip; depending on what you've installed.
3. Reboot.
CM7_Kernel-signed.zip
CM9_Kernel-signed.zip

I tried those .Zips and they didnt work for me.
What I ended doing is restoring Boot/devtree using CWM from a Walter 2.3.6 rom and it worked
Let me get this right, first I need to flash CM7.2 and then I need to restore boot and devtree?

Why don't you try the CM7.2 Nightlys for Defy and not for the +?

I guess because the ones for Defy+ are more recent. Newer = better.

You should try CM7.2 rom for the device you possess i.e. Defy. :good:
Just install cm7.2 for defy (not +). If you want to flash the defy+ version, you will have to install gb kernel and battery fix.

[Q] cm7.2 quarx rebbot after i quit asphalt 6

so there is my problem. when i quit asphalt 6 (while it runs no problem) my defy+ is rebooting.
im on quarx defy+ 120308 nightly
cpu settings:
300/20
600/33
800/42
1100/58
ondemand
any idea why is that problem?
strange thing, if nobody solved this bug you should try to wipe all and install CM once again. I have Cm7.2 and no problem with games - tried Asphalt - runs and quits like charm
after full wipe i flashed the 0316 quarx nigtly but the problem is still standing.. its sad coz this is a very nice and stable rom anyway, better then the 0127 eppsy
try increasing vsel4 a little bit, it might be too low ( i have 56/1000 )...
I've tried already. no change
Try the latest nightly. Have you tried running the app in your stock ROM? I don't know about the previous nightlies but it ran fine in the latest CM7 nightly for Defy+ in my case. I tested even in CM9 with success! However CM9 sometimes freezes and then you need to remove battery and wipe dalvik to start it!

[Q] Which ROM for Defy+?

Hi,
for one year I owned Defy. No it broke down and I purchased Defy+. I was very happy with CM 7.2 RC1 ROM. Now I'm in doubts which ROM should I flash. I heard CM7 has problems with camera and battery on Defy+ and in CM9 ROMs doesn't work Opera or Chrome browsers, which is a major issue for me.
Which ROM would you suggest for Defy+ (2.3.5 official ROM)?

Try the latest cm72 nightly by Quarx, I'm using it on my Defy+, very stable and fast.
http://quarx2k.ru
I'm running it now. It is really very stable and fast. The only issue I discovered so far is that camera picture is upside down.

I don't have this issue. Maybe a factory reset or a reflash would help.

great`.nice boat.
I just got CM9 4.0.4 to work and I must say that its great! Well only had it a short time but it looks great its better looks and usability. Only thing swype doesnt work but slideIT does not as good but it works.
Cant comment on to much else ATM, Opera mini next works on it for me, not sure about the full version I mainly access the net at home and opera mini has always done what I needed away from home so I cant complain
Hi,
is it safe to use CMW with this nightly, if i have rooted stock 2.3.4 ROM? Or do i have flash some kernel before?
Tried MS2Ginger, but it doesnt suit for me ...
You can also use the Whiterabbit, 7.2 cm based
I use MS2Ginger, in my opnion is the best rom...

You can use Swype beta . It worked for me.
Its free and all it needs is registration. If you get FC's go to manage apps for swype and wipe data and cache.

I did (did a nandroid backup first of course). Had no problems whatsoever. Flashed the air kernel and the dark mods over it as well Shouldn't give too much trouble, but just in case make a backup...

Since JRO03L merge (or around that time) rom has become laggy from me after a certain uptime...
I have no idea what happened... Just flashing an older build helps a lot...
At the moment I'm trying aokp (without wiping!) and everything appear to be way smoother compared to the cm10 experience I was getting with the nightlies...
The only versions being fast and smooth were the featured ones released by kalim
Anybody else feeling a similar situation?

Tempting to try it, may as well give it a try now too. Read good things about AOKP + air kernel (running air kernel with CM10 nightly now, 0821). Could run some benchmarks. Then again, they are just nightlies...So bugs are expected.
I'm on a clean install of cm-10-20120821-NIGHTLY-crespo and am not getting screen rotation. Wiped /system, /davlik, and factory reset.
I came from a eurostank jellybro build from the 17th and then full wiped and tried AOKP JB build 1 for a few minutes and then full wiped and came to this build.
Anyone else getting similar results?
EDIT: Just dirty flashed (wiped /cache and dalvik) over official cm10 8/21 to Euroskank's Jellybro 8/21 build and screen rotation is back!

[Q]Daily ROM Updates

THIS THREAD WILL NOT LEAD YOU TO ANY UPDATE OF ANY ROMs....
Hi everyone!...
I wanted to ask which ROM should I install...I KNOW THERE ARE SEVERAL THREAD ABOUT "STABLE ROM"
but the thing is that they are very old and at present m on CM10 the 26.05.2013 built....also tried CM10.1 of 7.06.2013 built the thing is that CM10.1 is very sluggish (what I felt)...n came back to cm10 26.05...but yesterday when I was using Google Maps it shutdown and when m trying it to boot I'm stuck on the CM logo...
the question is
"DO I GO WITH CM7.2 AS CM9 IS DISCONTINUED TO DEVELOP...AND CM10/10.1 IS NOT THAT STABLE...I CAN NOT AFFORD TO WIPE MY CELL FOR UPDATE/CRASHES SO I NEED A STABLE ROM ON WHICH I CAN STAY, ALSO NEED A GOOD BATTERY PERFORMANCE"...
MY USAGE:
* I USE MY CELL FOR INTERNET SURFING,
* WATCHING YOUTUBE,
* PLAYING GAMES (VERY LESS AND VERY SMALL GAMES NOT LIKE TEMPLE RUN/SUBWAY SURFERS),
* MAPS,
* TWITTER...THATS IT...SO PLZ UPDATE MY KNOWLEDGE ABOUT ROMs..
Don't worry.. CM10 is stable enough for all that, just don't get 10.1..
CM10 is very good, go for it
