[ROM] xd1 new version 1.2.5_fix

[UgduiBill]

great news about the calendar fix, even if I managed to get calendar sync using another app
and thanks in advance for the developement of this rom, right now it's the best of all for my taste quick and smooth

I've been running 1.1 for a while and absolutely love this ROM. Great Job and thanks for all the hard work!!!! waiting for the updates to be pushed out before installing 1.2. Looking forward to it. One suggestion, could you add a link to the proper .sbf to flash to the OP? I've searched around and find tweaked versions but I'm kinda new at this and not sure if that's what I need. Thanks again and keep up the great work!!

@realityrat
Here is the SBF you'll need in order to install xd1 1.2 (and the incoming 1.2.5):

Btw, everytime you look for a SBF just check the sticky post by walter79 here at the top of "Defy Android Development" section. He made a great work, there you'll find all the fixed SBF too.

About the 1.2.5 ver, work in progress but almost done

I still have a doubt, i can't find a way to make the aosp calendar 100% working:
- what's good: new events can be added w/o synch (unlike the other calendars)
- what's wrong: corporate calendar synch just fails
So, what's your tip guys, should i get back to the blur calendar this time?

 

[UgduiBill]

I desperately need corporate email but I realize I might be the only one... maybe you could make two updates, with and without blurcalendar?

 

[UgduiBill]

another info, in the contacts manager I find 2 contact groups: google and Lite. What's the deal with Lite? every time I add a contact it appears on both lists.. not a problem per se, just a curiosity!

I desperately need the "add events without sync" as it's among the best features I've found here - can't be arsed with syncs, honestly.

Perhaps a blur(or any other sync-working) calendar as an add-on .zip for those who need it?

Yea, i like this aosp-modded calendar as it is, why synch when i just don't need..
So, there'll be 2 updates, a big one (actually a new version) and a small flashable zip for those who need to restore stock mail & calendar (that is, UgduiBill )

 

[realityrat]

Thanks for the info and link. I'm gonna wait for your update before installing anything new. Is the 1.2.5 gonna have the same black and green look? I'd also like to add the boot animation found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=883843. I installed it on my other "stock" rooted defy and it works great but I didnt see a bootanimation.zip in the system/media folder on my Defy running your ROM. Do you think I could still use it? I guess I'm just nostalgic although I would like to customize it to match my devices. Thanks again for all the great work.

 

[UgduiBill]

thank you very much
you made my day with this

seriously, I do need a life!

** private message for UgduiBill **

I made the thing easy for you, within the first post search for "For those who need stock Calendar & Mail"

 

[huyxom]

[xdaid]

Just flash this with custom recovery.

i'm going to re-upload the themes (links currently broken).
Yes all of them can be used with the new version.

bootloop?

if you don't need dowgradability:
- reflash a full 3.4.2-177 sbf (RSD Lite)
- apply xd1 1.2.5

if you still have downgradability:
- reflash the original eclair (RSD Lite)
- restore a nandroid backup of 3.4.2-177 (custom recovery)
- flash a FIXED 3.4.2-177 sbf (RSD Lite)
- apply xd1 1.2.5

let me know if you solve..

I can't get 3g to work with this rom, even though I use baseband changer to one that worked on another rom. Does it work for someone else in europe region?

 

[ArcanisX]

Ouch!

Gets stuck at red motorola logo. Hopelessly.

Same setup and procedure as with 1.2 (total wipe -> fixed nordic .sbf -> update from a .zip file). 1.2 worked fine.

Kinda bummer (((

You've got to restore the nandroid also.

 

[ArcanisX]

Ugh my bad
Got kinda lax here, thought it'd go right over 1.2 just fine. Yep, nandroid was needed, got it all working now.

Aside from no "reboot" option in powermenu, stuff looks real great!

Edit:

Ok, bug spotted. WiFi settings would "unexpectedly close" upon trying to hook up to Ad-Hoc network.

hi, happy to see you back xdaid

I got a problem, when I look at video with xd1.2.5, I have sound but a black creen. Do you know what's going wrong?

Additional info, it looks like it's hardware decoding which is wrong (rockplayer with software decoding is OK, but videoplayer or mixzing => black screen)

the camera functions before I apply xd1.2.5.zip

 

[huyxom]

Reflash full sbf 3.4.2 177-005
Root
Install Defy 2ndinit
Boot to custom recovery
install 1.2.5.zip

->> bootloop again
