Hi, Those are what technicians call "dead pixels." Which means that the small pixels on your device are either smashed up (individually), or does not light anymore. Yes, you do have to replace the touch screen LCD of your device, unless your Defy is still covered by warranty and can be easily...

Bug report [?] Flashed 17.08 version, and everything was running smoothly except for the bootanimation. I've installed a new one, and still the bootanimation lags like hell. Fortunately, it still proceeds to the ROM, so it's still working properly. Just that bootanimation lag thing. I already...

Oh really now? does the current Defy ROM Updater.. -check for new builds? YES -download and install new builds? YES -make a nandroid backup? YES -clear dalvik? YES So tell me what the f is wrong with our current rom updater????? Please, enough with this effin ota stuff. Sent from my MB525...

No offense, but.. You damn lazy people. What the hell's so difficult with checking for any rom updates with the current rom updater? It's so simple: check for updates, if any shows up, click and download. If none, then no biggie. Simple, right? Sent from my MB525 using xda app-developers app

Questions: -so I do not need to flash any governor zip file? -I'm already using Epsy's latest build + gapps. Do I really need to do a full wipe, or will cache+dalvik wipe be enough to do the job? -is this for Green lens only (I saw that you're using a green lens defy)? I'm using a red lense, but...

At first I was like, "I should try this out!" but then I saw, you were using a Defy+. :)) Is this method applicable to Defy? From the DroidXGovernors alone, i wasn't sure if it can also be flashed to Defy. Most of the posts I saw were about Defy+.

@marhensa any settings that you did? I can't enter deep sleep. :( I'm on 0804 as well.

sure, but then how did you do it? Any tips?

How the hell did you do that with perfect deep sleep?? :)

+1 to that. Went back to SMARTASS because it went way too laggy for me. ALSO ANOTHER BUG REPORT: FM Radio volume goes back to zero everytime I run the app (either to start the app or to change the stations).

+1 to that. I'm on 0804 and I never had any problems with WiFi or data connection since I unticked the Avoid poor connections option. Anybody knows what happened to Epsylon?

Hmm. How about giving us an idea on what this bl7 is all about? There's not even a single detail or description about it and what it does in the OP.

are these flashable zips?

I don't get it. How do you install this?

Oh? That's too bad. :( Which makes Epsylon, Quarx and Maniac (and the rest of the guys who help the dev team) even more special to our hearts! (Yeah I know it sounds gay LOL) cheers to you guys. I would LOVE to meet you someday. XD Long live the Defy fraternity! Sent from my MB525 using xda...

Has anybody noticed that with the recent CM9 builds (or probably even with later nightlies), there's a significant lag with scrolling along the homescreens when in landscape mode? I think it's weird.

So how do you adjust and up to what level do you adjust those values that you mentioned? My Defy's OCed at 500/800/1200 with smartass gov.

Hold on, I'm a bit confused. If HWA is enabled by default for all apps with the latest build, then why does it lag for my apps (I used my Weaphones app as basis, since it lagged before HWA was finally enabled with 0705 build, but lagged again with the latest builds)? My phone was responsive in...

Hmm. Why am I still experiencing a bit of lag in some apps? :( Is it because of the removal of the whitelist from build.prop?

wait.. the 7-5 build already had full HWA right? And it went smoother than the latest build, IMO. Here's a simple trial I did earlier: Anyone familiar with the Weaphones app? When I had the 7-5 build it was running perfectly (which did not happen in earlier versions). When I flashed the 7-11...

I suppose it's not yet available for Defy? Only for Defy+? There was no file for Defy in the download link. :/

why do I feel like the 7-11 update's laggier than the 7-5 one? I did clear cache - dalvik cache - clear cache again. Am i missing something? Because I know that the latest nightly is HWA enabled by default. :(

okay, so following your instructions and other posts that I've found about this, here's what I did: whitelist=0 blacklist=none then I deleted (moved to SD, actually - I was too afraid to actually delete it) hwui.allow folder, then rebooted. I couldn't find the local.prop folder, though. After...

How do you enable HWA in build.prop?

what happened to the Quarx / Epsylon build threads??

I experienced the very same things with euroskank's. WiFi suddenly can't detect any wireless connections (I tried reboot, switching WiFi on and off, even making a nandroid back up results to problems). Battery drain is too high. I'm now thinking if I'll go back to 7.1 stable, or give this rc1...

same here, it force closes after using whatever camera app (I used stock camera and Camera 360, both resulted to FCs). I'm suspecting that it's a ROM compatibility issue. Haven't tried it yet. I'm on MotoGinger II. Anyone else having same problems on other ROMs?

not really an SBF backup; you have to download an SBF file that suits the CG version that your phone has. First, you have to remember; what was the last STOCK ANDROID VERSION that you had on your phone before you rooted, installed Snd init, and etc.?

Hmm. I don't know if you could call its status as "bricked", because as far as I know, you can't actually brick the Defy because of the locked bootloader. That's how we Defy users can luckily have our warranty so easily (as long as warranty period isn't expired, of course) whenever there's a...

but Zumocast is not compatible with the Defy, according to the market. (I still call it market even though it's Google Play now)

I was installing this ROM earlier, followed the steps well. Everything was going smoothly. Wipe Data, Restore, Wipe Cache, Dalvik.. etc.. Then Reboot.. And the 'M' logo came up, and I was like "Well yeah, pretty normal" but then the bootanimation came up, and I was like "WHOA, THIS IS PRETTY...

Hi! based from your instructions, I'd like to ask, is it necessary to have a fresh installation of the SEA15 SBF - for this ROM to work?

the HDR app couldn't be used because it says "the exposure cannot be controlled" or something. :(

oh no. I'm thinking of having this phone reverted back to Froyo, unroot, remove every track of it being rooted and all, and have this phone serviced as soon as I can. My phone is still covered by the warranty in terms of the timeframe, after all.

OMG. I have the same problem, but with Back button instead of the search button. I'm running CMIUI. Never had this kind of problem before. Anybody has a solution yet?

how do you install this?

ok, so it says in the website that it's compatible with Motorola Photon/ Electrify. Not in the Defy? :(

so I suppose this wouldn't work with cm7 rc1.5?

If you want assurance, flash a stock rom. Of course before that you'll have to do a full wipe using stock recovery. After flashing you'll have a nice clean and new stock rom. You may want to install a few apps and register your google accounts (and Facebook too!), just so it wouldn't look...

While I do respect the stability and the awesome features of the iPhone series, especially the 4s, I'd still stick with Android, and of course with the Defy. I mean, come on. Can you even dip iPhone on a glass of water? No sir.

did you initially install CM7 without immediately installing gapps? Because I think that must be what happened. The proper way is to wipe data and cache, install cm7 then install gapps.

that's true. And to support that, I just installed CM7 on my Defy. I had the same sbf as herukh, and everything went well. After I installed CM7+gapps, I didn't do wipe cache and data, and everything went sooo well. I'M LOVIN' THIS FREAKIN' ROM! oops. Haha. I just love this. Much better than...

I think I found out now where herukh may have made a mistake. From his post, he said that he installed the zip files, THEN wiped data and cache. that would have erased the installation, right?

Hi! Has anyone answered his concern yet? I'm concerned because I'm also on the same stock sbf (3.4.3-36-1.7 SEA, Deblur Froyo) and I'm very much curious about CM7 (like, I'm only a few centimeters away from actually starting to install CM7). And when I saw his problem, I got worried that the...

Hi! I have rooted my Defy (Thank God it went well), installed SetVsel, and of course StabilityTest. Now my Defy is under 300/17, 600/33, 1050/50 at 82% (as suggested by MotodefyUser), and I've been testing several settings already, but how do you know if the settings pass the test(s)? It just...

how about describing how those settings work or affect the Defy? ^_^ Currently trying out your settings. :D

Sure! I'll try that. :) I have another question! I just remembered I have Juice Defender Ultimate installed. Should I keep it? or is SetVsel enough to get more juice out of my battery?

Hi! I just did everything. Installed SuperOneClick root, rooted my phone (still nervous haha), and installed SetVsel and StabilityTest. I followed this thread's instructions, saying that the safe settings that I could use was 300/20, 600/40 and 1000/56. Running a StabilityTest right now. :)...

Hi! So I've installed BatteryLife to monitor the percentage of battery remaining as well as the temperature of my Defy, and I've noticed that as I run some apps, it sometimes reach as much as 40°C. What I'm worried about is that it might fry my processor, if I assume things correctly. Will it...

...and I assume that that preserves the warranty for the phone? :D Yeah, am i getting annoying for you? :)) Sorry! But hey, you've been a great help so far. Thank you so much! I'm clickin' that. :D
