[Q] SuperOneClick not working

[sixaxis94]

Hello all.. I just bought my Defy (standard, not plus) this afternoon.. played around with Eclair for a bit (it's not upgrading to froyo for some reason) and decided it was time to root cuz I've seen way too much about it on these forums and I want to OC it and try CM7

unfortunately step 1 isn't working for me.. I can't get SuperOneClick to work.
I've followed all the steps, I've installed the latest drivers and everything.. I've got SuperOneClick v2.3.3

When I run it with my Defy connected with USB Debugging turned on, when I press Root, it says a certain driver is not installed.. so I closed the app and reopened it but the same thing shows up.
one of the options that pops up is whether I'd like the app to forcefully set up the ADB thing or something so I clicked that, but even then it doesn't work.. any ideas?

I really need to OC it to 1 or maybe 1.2 GHz
and the reason I bought it today was because I had read a lot about rooting a defy being very easy

Which SBF did you try for Froyo upgrade that didn't work? What country are you from?

I haven't tried any SBF thing yet.. All I've done with my Defy so far (apart from installing some games) is hooking it up to my PC with the debugging on and running SuperOneClick, which is where the problem's taking place..
I haven't tried flashing anything or using 2ndInit or anything like that

Right now, I'm in India

I had to use SuperOneClick 2.2 (defy froyo and milestone eclair). 2.3 did not work. It is really important which rev. you use and newer does not mean it will work with your phone.
For example for xperia x 8 I had to use 1.5.5 to work. Just try different revisions

I use 2.1 version and it work flawlessly for me.

Try some different version if that works or try on some different computer.

Which operating system you using?

I've Win7 Ultimate x64 and it works without any issue as Win7 automatically downloads required drivers.

 

[sixaxis94]

Aright then, I'll try 2.1 or some other version a bit later.. hope it works
Eclair looks terrible after seeing stuff like ICS

I'm using win 7 as well, so I'm pretty sure thats not the problem

on a side note, I have a Green lens Defy, and I've read in a lot of places that the cam doesn't work with ICS.. Is the situation any different now or will the cam never work for this lens with ICS?

I also have same Green lens defy.

Cam also works with ICS but with Froyo kernel only.

Okay, so I guess it worked.. I installed the Milestone overclock app and OC'd it to 1000 MHz (74 vsel) (whatever that means)

Shadowgun, which was working almost lag free earlier, started lagging a bit, haha
Guess I'll have to reboot or something and try again

*time to flash ICS*

EDIT: When I rooted, it didn't ask if I wanted to install busybox, nor did it ask for a reboot. Is that a problem?

74 is too high. Set it at 58

74 is too high. Set it at 58

If I set it to 58, can I still clock 1ghz? What's the advantage of 58 over 74?

temp increases with increase in vsel (which is nothing but a factor of voltage)
Battery life decreases with increase in vsel
Stability of the system increases with increase in vsel

the more clock speeds, more vsel you need.

high clock speed+ low vsel= crashes / low stability
high clock speed+ high vsel=less crashes / ok stability
low clock speed + high vsel= very less probability of crashes / high stability
low clock speed+ low vsel=high to med crashes / low-normal stability

So basically, it is about what you want, and how you balance it.

I've clocked it at 1100 GHz at 58 vsel. Advantage of 58 over 74 is lower battery temp and longer life.

I've done this and everything's great right now
just one question.. ever since I installed cm9 my menu keys have stopped lighting up.. is that normal?

Btw is swype incompatible with cm9? I downloaded the beta but it doesn't work

And also does the latest version of opera mobile (not mini) work for you? On ics it crashes on startup

Backlight only turns on at certain light level. If you go into a dark room, buttons should be lit.

Opera mobile and Google Chrome don't work, because of the lack of HWA.

Don't know about swipe - I have never liked it, using SwiftKey X

I tried swiftkey.. its no different from the stock keyboard so I removed it

mx player stopped playing full length movies (it did in eclair). I'm guessing its the HWA problem here as well

Hope its fixed in an upcoming build

Swype beta works perfectly on my ICS defy. Did you performed all steps of swype installer?

I don't remember all steps now, but there was sg like choosing (checking box) swype, all settings and then choosing which android keyboard shall be used

I did a reinstall and that seems to have fixed the problem.. It's working now
