Knowing how most custom 2.1 ROMs have it installed and working, why is it that we don't have one for 2.2?
I saved the package in Titanium Backup from 2.1. I haven't tried it but if I restore it while in 2.2 (cm6) I imagine it would not work?
Just curious because 2.1 was never built for flash yet somehow it's available.

I'm not sure so don't take this to heart, but i think it has something to do with the Hero never officially getting FroYo.
Maybe the can't just port it over, or dont have a version for 2.2?
Idk, just my 2 cents.
It's my understanding our phones architecture does not support flash.
This has been answered a bazillion times.
Adobe wrote it for a different cpu architecture, ours is not compatible.
No, flash lite won't work either (yet) until someone finds a way to port it.

Grr beat me to it.
Then can I be the first to say this belongs under q&a.
I'm pretty sure the only 2.1 ROM that has 10.1 on it is NFX's.
There's actually a few sense roms with full 10.1, and every 2.1 sense rom has flash lite. Papa smurf had a couple with full flash I think. But I gotta tell ya, surfing the web with flash on really slows ya down.
Oh, and MMFCL!

This doesn't answer the question, 10.1 works on sense roms on the hero. Why will it work on sense and not cm6? what is the lacking component? Your answer says its the phone hardware, but that cant be correct cause a sense rom uses that same hardware.
So can someone who know the answer please clarify? what does sense have that stock android does not that allows it to run 10.1 flash?
Just curious to know
yxplayer4 v1.5.6 offers a streaming flash browser...which is what i use to view flash videos on 2.2 based ROMS. No issues, works w/ most sites. So if you're looking solely for that purpose, google the apk and enjoy.
+1, 2, 3, 4, etc. on what everyone else has already contributed re: viewing the rest of the flash content on 2.2.
Flash 10.1 is written for ARMv7 processors, right? We have ARMv6 processors, so there's no way of it fully working, if at all.

Ok if full flash is for arm7 devices and not arm6 then why is there full flash for 2.1 roms for the hero even though our device is arm6

Let's keep it friendly guys, we're all here to help. Also, there is not full flash for 2.1... it's just a modified version of sense flash lite.

My bad i just was having a bad day
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
OK, so in that case, the full answer is this:
No, 2.1 does not have full 10.1 flash support for cdma hero. The 10.1 flash for 2.1 is just modified to fit our phones so that it runs some flash content but not all.
So here is the follow up question:
Will the 10.1 apk work on 2.1 as it did on 2.1? If not, can the full 10.1 for 2.2 be modified to fit our phone hardware to at least run some flash content just as 2.1 apk did?
I'll check the flash player apk someone suggested but I was more interested in flash in the browser. Seems like it worked on 2.1.
Hi,
Well we have an Froyo Kernel (UK,Orange,Chinese) well the guys at the XT720 got Froyo with 2.1 UK Kernel to Work.
Someone gonna try 2.3 with 2.2. UK/Orange Kernel?
That would be something really nice we could work on
Cause with 2.2 UK / Orange we have perfect working Froyo, now there ist only 720p (half done) ,FM-Transmitter (seems impossible) and finally Bootloader Cracking(really hard work) left for Developers
We could use CM7 or Milestone Gingerbread Port
Regards
the guys that are working on milestone baked a fully?! working gingerbread, can't the same method they used to get it working on milestone be used for our defy? i also read that custom kernels can be loaded on droid x and milestone

Unfortunately I can't find any information that they actually used the kexec method to load a fully custom kernel. I'm hoping they are still hiding it for the public to get rid of bugs. I fear though it's never going to happen. Despite that fear, a true CM7 on our Defy with a Moto kernel would already be quite nice. The custom roms so far are nice, but they are nothing more than adaptations of the original firmware. There is still Moto stuff in them, and don't we all just want to have Gingerbread on our Defy?
Honesty.... Gingerbread is the worst update google has done.. might as well wait for Icecream for some REAL update besides some phone off animations. Before we even got a froyo rom I attempted to port it with advice I got from dexter awhile ago... obviously didn't work.

All I can say is can't wait for blurless tmous froyo (cue jboogie)
2.3 doesn't seem to do much really...
It would be nice to have the latest ginger just to have the latest ginger to keep our Defy up to date.
I agree with jboogie3, it would be better keep some energy to concentrate our efforts on the next release during this time if you don't like blur stuff I would advise the latest jboogie3 rom which is really fast and as blurless as it's reasonable to be (only miss ginger keyboard which has improvements and drawbacks .
A core CM port would be nice though.
Cheers,
Kribou
I hope Motorola gives defy little ginger, because froyo its close to final release.
I think that Motorola developers will not stop there.
But its only me..

Yes, there are few small changes, but if the kernel could be ported that will be nice...maybe in some we could really have fully customizable roms on our defy

Unfortunately even the deblurred ROMs aren't running stock apps. They still have Moto contacts, moto dialler, cmp and more at a minimum, not to mention there are moto services you can't get rid of.
It's not that I don't appreciate the work the devs are doing with ROMs but all I really want is a proper Froyo stock ROM, maybe one day I'll get bothered enough to try and make one

at this moment the most we can do with rom deblur, is to change
some applications aosp with some blur .... not easy to delete all app
motorola, there are some default app that you just replace them, but must rewrite the correct library for it to work properly, such (for example) as a keyboard (or gingerbread Android) ..
Everyone, could you plz save your efforts with all the blur roms and start baking stock roms cz I believe it is possible but just needs alot of work, so to all the devs here can u all work on the same project of unlocking the bootloader and porting stock roms, plz!!!
are you serious?

Gingerbread keyboard works dandy on my defy.
There is a port for 2.2 devices...
Gingerbread is all in all a nice update. made my hd2 faster, better looking and added this little orange bumps to the lists...
btw: 2.3.3 enables a lot of apps made for multiple processors.
There are many kernel sources (and more sources) available on motodev
ex:
https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/go/projects.moto_defy/frs.defy_skt.jdskt_u3_02_20_0
https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/...ects.moto_defy/frs.defy_latam.jorla_u3_6_14_5
There are sources of the 2.1.1, but i find nothing related to the 3.4.2 build
but kernel Makefile shows v2.6.29 and not 2.6.32
THE DEVICE HAS BEEN MODIFIED SO THAT IT CAN NOW SHOOT BOTH RED(NEW) AND GREEN(OLD) CAMERAS.
I've been unable to make green lense kernel modules work well with new kernel. GB kernel is dicks!
So i performed a fusion of 2.3 firmware onto 2.2 kernel via 2nd-init.
Pros:
Stable kernel
No ultra-bright buttons
Cons:
Somewhat slower than official 2.3
Live Wallpapers don't work
Contents:
2.2 (3.4.2-177) kernel
4.5.134 ramdisk
EGL drivers from Froyo
Camera libraries from Froyo
Sensors library from CM7
libsurfaceflinger/libserver_init from Droid2 GB OTA
libcamera wrapper by me, based on CM7 wrapper by maniac103
BlurCamera ported from Froyo (GB one is not stable)
Installation:
Install official GingerBread via nandroid + fixed sbf
Install 2nd-init recovery 0.6.1 or later
Install zip from recovery
Download:
http://tihiy.net/files/greenlens/GreenBread_1.1_release.zip
Make mirrors.
Disclaimer:
This is tested on latest (134) leak but may work on older or newer releases. I'm interested in results on those.
This is beta mod of beta firmware with frankenstein-esque methods
This may or may not work on red lenses
I'm not responsible for your damages
Please don't spam this thread with bugs, don't start flamewars and don't whine
Thanks to everyone in CyanogenDefy team!
Mention me if you're using my work.
GOOD。
but i used CM7 now.
I guess this will cause usb and wifi tether to not work?
This is great. i have red lense but this makes gingerbread development able for everyone.
This is just a great work for green lensed phones....

I'm really happy this has finally been done. I've sold my Defy few days ago and I regret that I could give the official 2.3 ROM a try. Good work !
works like a charm in my green lens defy. by the way, its the first time im running official 2.3.4, 4.5.1-134. i found it a bit laggy in comparison with nordic froyo and miui. maybe i need some reboots. im runinng shadow´s rooted version by walter (nandroid + fixed sbf).
EDIT: in the OP theres an advice that says live wallpapers dont work, im at wpclock 1.5.3 working as well.
yes dont work live wallpaper!

I have a stock gingerbread unrooted and I wanna try this. I've been searching, and it seems that the only way to get the phone rooted is having froyo first and flashing a nandroid. I am really lazy to go back to froyo. Is there any way to root GingerBlur?
I dont understand its for kernel 2.2.2 but we want for Gingervread kernel
But thanks

How many times does it needs to repeated there is no such thing as gingerbread kernel. Kernel is one thing android version is another! Gingerbread can work with 29 32 35 kernels. Moto uses 32 to GB and froyo too.
I have a problem with the camera and video hardware to all custom firmware which are based on cyanogenmod kernel. Camera work but does not move and hardware video on player don*t move. On firmware are based on stock all right work. I've tried everything hboot and recovery but result is the same. Install Miui 2.1.6.08 then install kernel UNITY_V9_2.6.35.14 is the only variant when camera well works but hardware video does not work at all. I hope to help developers!

Hey guys,
I am new to all of this but managed to successfully flashed the superlite-5.1 rom to my Rogers Galaxy S2. Big thank you to mhx (I tried donating but your paypal wouldn't accept because in not in the US)
The Rom is working fine but there are a couple of features that it doesn't contain that interest me.
1. The camera app - Is it possible to have the same camera that's available on the stock ICS (with the live video effects...)
2. Can I flash romracers kernal with this rom? I only want to do this for bln support. Is there another way I can get bln?
Sorry if my question sounds dumb, I have spent the last couple days reading through the forum trying to educate myself with the android dev.

pretty sure he is talking about romracers gb kernel, which would not work with ics.
romracers unsecure ics kernel is fine to flash, but if hes using superlite, he is already using that kernel.

That's just an ICS themed camera. You can try Camera ICS+ on play store. Still needs work though but it does have the video effects.

Sometimes it worked, sometimes it crashed. You can send them an email, the dev is responsive. I'll do the same and maybe he'll fix it. He's trying to make it compatible with most phones.
