[Q] What is the most stable ICS-based ROM for Defy - Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Defy with green lens and I have the latest WIUI V4 installed. It works good for me because the camera and video recorder are working but there's no radio, the gps can't find my location and the battery gets drained too fast when using wi-fi (as compared to MIUI Pikachu or WIUI Hybrid). So which ICS-based ROM works best for you? Thanks.

seconded - epsylon
I'm running 120617 and it's more stable than the various cm7s I used before

+1 for Epsylon3's CM9 ROM.

Ditto

Which version? The latest?

The latest has reboots use the second to last one. I find fuzz builds better tho. The latest fuzz build is stable enough, as in no reboots.

is this still the most stable ICS ? I have suddenly started having problems with my wifi (despite havng this build for several months now).
Could upgrade to CM10 but not that keen due to the hassle of reloading apps, losing settings etc.
Cheers

I was a fan of DarkyROM since v8, but had to wait long for new release and ROM got buggy and unstable after using 10.2 more than tree months.
Now I'm on F1 Innovation HD 7.0 running on Semaphore 2.4 Kernel. I like the speed and stability. And one thing that I like most is stock look.
Waiting for stable and usable ICS ROM.

Appart from a few issues that can easily be solved if you already managed to install the ROM, it is absolutely ready to be used as a daily driver IMHO.

Thank for the info. Not real familiar with the defy. Going to give the 7.1 a try and see if she gets mad. LOL
Better take latest one from here. It are the builds of Epsylon. He's the (one of) the guy's who push everything to the official nightly's. Latest stable one is old and the latest one's are even more stable
Labsin is telling the best route. I have epsylon3's cm9 rom installed. His builds are great!

I have the fix for you:
Download the GAPPS for the ROM you use,

Flash it in CMW!
Hey presto, working everything!

[Q]ICS ROM clarification

Hi Now am using 2.3.7 version and kernal 2.6.32.9-gb in my defy,
Am planing to install ICS 4.0.3.What kernal should download?
Becoz i already tried Mar 3 build but its stucked many times and getting restarted again so pls tel the correct methods and kernal.GApps.
Can any one help me?
If you have gingerbread kernel you need to install a Defy+ build. If you have a normal defy, I think you need to install batery fix as well. I'll try to find it. Defy+ builds work well with red lense defys, but I don't think camera works for green lense users.
Thanks...so shall I install defy + build...and kernal link available separately....what is the use of those kernal...how. and wat should be install
Sent from my MB525 using XDA
You already have a kernel. Or else you wouldn't be able to use the phone. You've already told me that you have a gingerbread kernel. So don't bother flashing a new one.
Gapps is on first page for main CM9 thread. Battery fix is somewhere in the thread :-/ Look around page 300

CM9 Kernel gives bootloader error. It's for froyo kernel users only (as far as i've understood)
DON'T flash it! It will soft brick your phone!

I hope all doubts over
CM9 builds,gapps & battery fix is enough to my phone to run ICS.
Have to flash above three things?
Am i right?
Yup, that should be it.

That is true. I have a Defy+ and I installed the CM9 kernel. It soft bricked my phone and I had to do a SBF flash, root CWM recovery and all things all over!! Flash the CM9 built for Defy+ by Quarx. It does restarts and freezes ocassionally but is okay otherwise for a beta version!!

I have a green lens too and I'm happy with CM9, build from 06.04 by Epsylon3 with Froyo kernel (keep in mind that it's still in early development, so you might experience bugs, errors and crashes - I didn't had any though). It also has working 3G (if not, try to move around basebands).
Trimis de pe Defy CM9
Flashed the rom u suggested, flashed gapps but gtalk won't connect unless on wifi. What gapp have u flashed? Thanx
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
The latest ones for ICS - 20120317.
Try to clear data and cache for GTalk - it may fix the problem.
Try latest defy rom. I believe it has working 3g and wifi. I have red lense defy and both works.

Just to confirm again, the epsylon 1104+ build mentioned above has the best connectivity to date for me. This one's a real keeper.

Which lens red/green and which build you flashed quarx/eppy? For green use eppy froyo builds, for red you can use defy/defy+ builds with appropriate kernels.
Did you try wiping cache of camera app?
