I have gone through the thread and was wondering what is keeping the WiFi from working. I can live without the BT headset function, but will have to wait till WiFi is fixed before I can jump in. This looks sweet though. Quarx rocks!!

Two things that would be fabulous to see with 4.4 development for our Defy's would be:
A) Getting official support fro Cyanogenmod (Possibly a long shot, but anything is possible!!!)
B) Over the air updates(OTA) for these builds!!!! Imagine how fantastic that would be?!!!!

Regardless of whether these two things happen, you are fantastic Quarx and you are an inspiration to me as a beginner programmer!

Both very very low priority... We don't need official support from the commercial guys of CM. We have the best support: Quarx!!!! OTA not needed. When I'm upgrading I want to have full control of what I'm doing. Please use time for more important things.

i agree they are rather low priority things, but just would be really cool to boost how far defy development has actually come!

Preview as in 'image on screen portraying subject camera is pointed at'? Not here, see my previous post for the reason. This was tested with the current repo, including the linked change. the camera app launches to a black preview.
Looks like change not included, because preview works after that, and no black screen.:)

Strangely enough it still bugs out when trying to dlopen() libbayercamera.so, even though the change is included. i'll make clobber, wait half a day for the blasted thing to be built from the ground again up and try anew...

I'm building the cm11.0 tree for what that matters. The last change to system/core is I7bb8367e6a40d00f0d2d0bb94f1b9ce8fe347647 ('Add DurationTimer class to fix missing symbol in libbayercamera.so').

--- added after clean build (make clobber followed by normal build)

On a clean build I still get the dlopen() error as seen earlier. What is the md5sum of your libbayercamera.so? Here I get:
Code:
626b8390601eeee8b5562622e0b00326  vendor/motorola/jordan-common/lib/libbayercamera.so

True words, but i guess its to complicated for normal users. If possible we should avoid that as good as we can :)
Too late. I'm curious now. How does one install the software if not the "normal" user way? If that being install flashable zips. Do you guys push the software into the appropriate directories after compiling it on your Android building systems?

Hey @Quarx will you make a new donate app for this?

Hey @Quarx will you make a new donate app for KitKat?

How come Quarx hasn't made a donate widget like what chipin offered?

I did wondering that in a few posts ago as well.... In my point of view it is very nice to support and get a
nice "souvenir" or more like a fysical thing to show people doubting android that "even if I don't know a thing about this I still can be a part of it".

I described the process in an earlier post, there is no magic involved. You just have to do manually what otherwise is done automagically by the installer script, place the correct files in the correct locations and give them the correct permissions. As to which files are the 'correct' ones the answer is that this depends on what you're trying to do. If you happened to have flashed a distribution with a non-functional recovery you'll want to replace that with a known working copy from an earlier distribution. If you get into a boot loop because of a failing busybox you'll want to replace that binary, etc. In other words you'll need to evaluate the problem, come up with a solution and execute that solution.
