[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

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.

If you mean anything else to install, then no. Does charging work?

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!!

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?

[Q] What is the most stable ICS-based ROM for Defy

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.

Epsylon3 CM9. Only panorama doesn't work...

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.

+1 to 0617 build of Epsylon3's CM9

Sent from my MB525 using XDA

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

Battery fix for defy red lense with kernel v2.6.32.9-ge281b6e

I am on the latest cm10 nightly (for defy+) and I am having a problem with battery - typical 1%+red led flashing+no charging. I have serached about 20 threads, but I am still not able to find a solution - all the battery fixes, procedures I have found yet don't work for me. (official cm10 thread, older fixes, etc). Since I accidently flashed sbf with bl7 version (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1595013), flashing kernels shown in official CM10 thread is impossible.

I have made my own from stock Rom DFP-231.
Try this one it should work for you too (only for defy+ battery 1700mAh).
For me is working in every rom i have tried (CM7,CM9 CM10, MS2GINGER ......).

Well try to make your own.
Extract the too files from your stock Rom(defy rom not defy+ rom) replace them in the zip provided by me then sign again with apksign or other app. And tada you have your own battery fix.

Thanks for your answer.

One question about SB : does SB suffer from the bluetooth handset bug (CM10.1,CM10.2) ?
{/off topic}

Yes, since it is based on CM.
Sent from my MB526 using xda app-developers app

Don't know that since I don't use it. But as per my knowledge this bug remains as it is.

Thanks guys.
I still remain on CM10, because bluetooth handset/streaming is a vital feature for me ...
