MS2Ginger for speed, MIUI for appearance.

[Q] custom rom for defy

Hey
I am using my Motorola defy with Android 2.2.
But now i want to install a smooth and fast custom rom, because my defy is getting slow and particularly boring.
Which rom would you recommend ?
I think you developed Android 2.3 or even 4.0.
I am searching for something which works in all, so i mean ,, no bugs''!
So give me a prposal
Hi! I've been using CM7.2 RC1 since the release and I found no problems with it at all. It's smooth, battery life is great, performance also. I wouldn't recommend you CM9 builds for daily use since they are still buggy. Either CM7.1 or CM7.2 RC1 is good option.
+1 on CM7.2RC1 for best performance/options/less bugs
Also take a look at MIUI roms if you like the style...
I believe MS2Ginger from Walter is best rom till date. It has gingerbread and works for Green lense defy too.
What else you want?
I use CM9 nightly. No problems at all. Search for Epsylon's build ( froyo kernel). Battery life excelent, phone is superfast!

Using CM9 Nightly as well and have only small bugs/issues (e.g. video rec doesn't work yet and I get a bad preview on highest zoom stage with camera).
No Problems with CM7 at all.

[Q] What's the best ICS ROM to defy?

What's the best ics rom for defy*?
What's the diference of AOSP, AOKP and CM9?
*With Red Lens.
Sorry for my English, I'm Brazilian
cm9 i use it, camera is buggy, but other things working good. the AOSP and AOKP is bulilt for cm9. sorry for my bed english i'm from hungary
Actually I'm using AOKP Milestone 5 beta 8 by Sesme and it's so good!
I am using CM9 Quarx 0522. Video playback is laggy, panorama doesn't work and there is partial implementation of HWA. But I like it very much!
I think that cm9 is more suitable for defy
I think cm9 is the best actually.
for me the best is the CM9 - 26/05 Epsylon + fix.
works fine!

[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?

When i start missiin i kill 3 guys and have error "Application modern combat 2... must be close" or enything else, sorry i don't remember all words in error and it' s difficult to translate from Polish to English. My friend told me "android 2.3.4 is the best, smooth and stable rom" but i wanna find custom rom on this android and kernel with flash player because i wanna play galaxy life on facebook and this game is only on app store in apple. Plese help me with custom roms, i thinks overcloking on my defy is bad because when i over clock from 800mhz to 1000mhz (on gingerbread 2.3.6) my defy reboot himself. Please help me guys
Overclocking on my defy is not bad, clock from 800MHz to 1000Mhz. Im on 1000Mhz.... Try MIUI or WIUI these are stable.
Try Cyanogenmod 7.2 by Maniac

WIUI Stable.
Hello,
I'm using CM10 of quarx latest ROM and let it run from 300MHz up to 1200MHz.
Look at quarx.ru/ there CM10-2ndboot-nightly-defy(+)
It is for all kind of defy.
You also can find older and stable ROM's.

You can use the ROM of Epsylon or Quarx 4.0.4 or 4.1.2 , they are stable. I have -10% accu per night. Undervolted low speed CPU and off all not needed. Some days no charger, ok for me. I use now 300/20, 600/30, 800/40 and 1000/50. I have GB accidently.
The new 2ndboot 525/526 CM10 of Quarx give you 4 steps. For longer accu go lower with the steps, exept 300MHz!

I ran WhiteRabbit 1.52 for 6 months, nice rom and stable. After a few tries with WR1.7 and 2.0, I'm in love with WIUI stable GB. Very stable, smooth, overclocked (1100 mhz by default on my d+) and nice design.

+1. Fantastic ROM
wiui is the best
OK, stupid question: What is "wiui"?
just get CM7.2 stable from the official website. It couldnt get any more stable than that.
You have some options: install a stable CM7.2 or (because none of the CM10 is not stable by now) you can try a mix between a last CM10 of your choice and the 18.11 Quarx kernel.

Wiui is actualy miui . But it is modified by Wajk. So it is Wiui. Wiui gb is perfect in my opinion.

Try Cm 7.2 and try to overclock and set vsel to higher values if it reboots sometime.
On play you can find cpu-tester apps to check your settings (dont remember the name, just search)
300/16, 600/33, 1000/52 stable for me on this rom
1200/60 also good

[Q] CM 7 based ROMS

Hey folks!
I'm back on stock after CM10 and wanna go CM7.
I was on CM7.1 long back and then was on TweetyPeety's excellent MIUI Pikachu Edition.
Then I was on CM10-2012-11-18 build, but was having problems answering calls which was unacceptable to me, so I tried to flash MIUI back but it was a bit off, so I decided to start from scratch and flashed FroYo 2.2.2 SEA SBF (My default stock FroYo which I love and trust)
But it all slows down after a few months and now am looking for CM7 based ROMS, and wanna know which one's better:
1) [ROM][CM7] WhiteRabbitNextGen Edition 2.1.1 *END OF THE WORLD RABBIT*
and
2) [DEV][ROM] CyanogenMod 7.2.0 (Android 2.3.7)
I am putting CM7.2 because I think it has smart dialing which I remember I sorely missed in CM7.1
But are there any good and latest CM7.2 or higher (but CM7 based only) ROMS?

My advice use mookee by stefan braun its the fastest rom on here and u wont be disapointed

Haven't tried the WhiteRabbit ROM. I gave Quarx's CM10 a chance over several months and decided to find something stable. WajkIUI based on MIUI and CM (stable GB version 3.1.27.) works great for me. Battery lasts up to 2 days even with a couple of 5% drops over that time. Its fast and smooth.
i like most mokee by euro_rules (modified version for defy+)! it's perfect! it looks great and no bugs at all
right now i'm using wiui gb and it's fine too but i think mokee is a bit better.. but miui looks prettier
the last whiterabbit is good and it looks like cm10
Thanks for the replies guys!
As I said, I have flashed CM 7.2 Official stable and am loving it!
The only problem I ever had with CM 7.x ROMS was the crappy ADW Launcher jitters in animations like swipe homescreen and open / close appdrawer.
I do believe its a problem with ADW itself because LauncherPRO works flawlessly giving as smooth animations (if not better) as the stock ROM.
The stock VSels are quite a bit high and I have notched it all down and undervolted to 300/25; 600/33; 1000/53.
Will also run V6 Supercharger and maybe even install latest CM 7 nightly which was recently updated: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1458729
Have also installed Swype which I just can't live without!
Now, As I see from the replies, there seem to be different variations for mokee OS for DEFY? which one should I try on my MB525 Red lense?
a) mookee by stefan braun
b) mokee by euro_rules (modified version for defy+)
BTW have to mention here something which I had to search and could not find readily:
The baseband for Indian users to select in CM7.x in built baseband switcher is: South East Asia 3.4.3-331

i've found euro_rules version a bit better i think you'll have to try yourself..
the only thing i don't like is that you can't access cpu settings in boot menu.. you have to use app like rom toolbox! everything else is perefct!
