Hi all
I don't know if I can actually create a thread about that or if I should just post it somewhere else, if I'm doing something wrong please delete it and please don't ban me
So! Since I bought my Defy+ I've been searching everywhere, reading every post and lurking here and there to find a successful way to install CM7 on it.
Unfortunately, it seemed like a lost cause : there is no official version for it ( just for the small brother Defy ), every single version either didn't load or had problems, like inverted camera, not fully charging battery, APN problems and so on.
After several experiments and a pants-****ting soft brick, I managed to merge the perfect ( ? ) solution
le click
le alternative click
This is CM7.2 nightly version 111213 : I merged it with a working camera ( no inverted pics, no bugs, working selective touch to focus ) and a working battd ( it fully charges the Defy+ battery up to 1650 mAh, no "stop charging at 80%" or stuff like that ), both taken from different versions
I'm still testing it, but for now I can't find any problems whatsoever, it's smooth and stable for everyday use
Install it like every other CM rom ( flashing gapps included ), and if after the first restart you can't find any signal just restart and everything will work
I was going to post it in another thread, but since it's a very common problem I thought it was better if everybody was able to find it faster, again, if it's not " worth " of a proper thread just delete it and I'll post it somewhere else
Thanks a lot everyone, I'm learning more and more everyday about Android thanks to you!
P.S.
I honestly don't know if it will run on every single device, regardless of Defy/Defy+ and/or Android version, Kernel and stuff
So I'm posting info about my device, and whoever is in my same situation can flash this rom for sure
Defy+
Android 2.3.6 ( full sbf, the one you can't downgrade from )
Kernel version : 2.6.32.9-gbdd614e
A COUPLE OF THINGS
1) If you had problems flashing the zip ( like not being able to open it or whatever ) you can try to rename it with a shorter, no-space name. I uploaded it the way I flashed it on my phone, so it works like this on mine, but who knows
2) For every request ( adding T9 dialer, changing this and that ) I have to remind you this is just a CM7 nightly with a couple of modifications to have full working battery and camera on Defy+ : it means I have honestly no idea how to change anything CM-related, and for that I suggest you to ask in this or this thread, where there are actual CM developers who can probably help you

I guess it's both for Defy and Defy+, as far as I know nighties don't include kernel, so you can basically mount them wherever you want xD
But yea, I'll add it anyway, along with info about my device

Maybe the name was too long, even if I flashed it with that name xD
about you problems.. that's very strange. which android version were you mounting before flashing this rom? defy or defy+?
As I stated in the OP, this is no weird black magic or anything, it's the basic CM nightly with a couple of variation to have working camera and battery xD all the rest is exactly the same as CM

Hello, first there excuses my Englishman for whom it is bad. Podrias to a stable miui to correct the problem of the load of battery since you it have I begin in this rom? Thank you
Thank you !
It is a pleasure to have a fully working rom.
I just had a little problem when calling, after a minute or so, when the screen locks I can still hear people but they can't hear me.
Any clue how to fix that ? I am not even sure it is coming from this release but it is the first time it happens.

Do you mind to share the m5d checksum here? So we can check if our download is not corrupted.

The "regular" Defy users probably won`t flash this since they can easily download stable CM7.1 or 7.2 beta that will work with no problems. Those stuck on 2.3.6 should flash this
I have "regular" Defy with flashed 2.3.6 SBF (red lensed) and I confirm that is this ROM working fine with my phone Camera, battery etc so far no problems.
Why not simply sharing with everyone what you did to fix the battery charging problem? It can't be that complicated isn't it?
Because I know what you did for the camera ;-...
@Jojo
Yea sure, I used this one
@amediometro
I honestly didn't understand what you said..
@ateach
never encountered this problem sorry
@maymyk
I'm a bit ashamed about it, but I don't know how to do that if you explain me how to I'll be more than pleased to do it
@[] AL []
I thought to share the whole working rom instead of the small "fixes" and tell you "you do that yourself"
anyway I found a different version of the "battd" included in the CM Nightly and I put it inside the .zip overwriting the previous one, but I'm afraid I don't have it anymore, if you want it you can download the ROM and extract it, same applies for Camera.apk and overlay ( which you said you already know about )
I'm pretty sure I found it via android-hilfe, a german forum which is full of good informations, provided you either know german ( which I don't ) or have a lot of patience to go through the disturbing google translator
if I can help anyhow let me know, even thought there's not much I can really do, I'm not a CM developer, basically every problem you can get with this rom is about CM..
can we enable 720p record?
or can we change camera with the azar camera apk?
work fine I confirm
Ok thanks, I don't own a defy+ anyway; I was just curious to learn about your solution for the battery charging.
In fact, during the holidays, I thought of doing the same as you did; I wrote a guide about all the tweaks I use on the same nightly and realized that it was extremely long and that I'd better just share a nand backup instead...
I believe that the question from the guy that you did not understand was about the same issue (batt charging fix) on MIUI this time...
And I'm pretty sure that the flashing problems on p.1 is because your zip name has a space in it; you should rename it and re-upload or make that very clear in the OP at least.
Cheers

Hello friends! I need your wise words to clarify my doubts about this particular phone.
received a gift of a gt-s7500t but the android version 2.3 and I do not like putting on ics (android 4.0 at least) and in different forums I have not found answer.
if I read how to be root and install some recovery to the device and the only thing that bothers me is the OS
I found a post looking to backup the boot.img but ... that boot.img is only compatible with GB? is there any other way to have ICS or JB on this device?
in advance, thanks for the help.
using google translator. greetings from Venezuela
recently after a long time GT-S7500L varient users got CM10.1 jellybean for their device.
For your version there is no specific JB / GB rom yet
(unless you can use GB rom by replacing kernel thing, tricky one)
but, yup try to collect more users from your verient so then someone come up with custom rom for you too...

I have my htc Desire s with HBOOT 2.00.0002 unlocked bootloader form HTCDEV with S-OFF , i flashed CWM recovery 5.0 , i flashed cm 7.1 stable version and it worked.
I dint want to get Stuck in gingerbread so i downloaded some other roms from XDA like JEllY FIRE , UnoffiCial CM 10.2 , Carbon ROm , PAc MAN ROM e.tc. ... i flashed cwm recovery version 5 , then wiped Data , Cache , and dalvik cache and Flashed the above roms , but no luck , the phone got stuck on HTC logo ...
So i thought of downgrading the Hboot Version .. and i used the tutorial from a site which told me to use the given attachment to downgrade hboot ,
now i have Hboot version 0.98.2000 (PG****) (as i am seeing) , and s-off , but still when i tried flashing unofficial cm 10.2 the phone got stuck on htc logo .
Please help i want to use Jelly bean ... i need a detailed tutorial or video link to get a good jelly bean rom working on my phone ....

I have hitachi panel ... please reply soon .. how can i flash a custom rom without having that broghtness always 100% error .. .those links in that thread weere dead :crying:
I'm sorry, but no jb or kit-kat rom will work properly on your phone. Even if you get them to boot with one of those kernels mentioned in the thread, the brightness will not be adjustable. So unless you can live with that, you're stuck with cm7 or sense roms
Check this.You have hitachi panel and you need to flash MDDI kernel.Check Flinny site like this http://andromadus.flinny.org/?q=cm10_1 for JB but be careful some links don't work so find it yourself. In basic you can get brightness working on your phone.
Check all post with MDDI and find that kind of rom.
Sorry for your problem.

Can please link me on how to get the official ICS rom for Desire s back .. keeping CWN and S - OFF .
Can i get a link to the MIDI kernel which i can flash so that i can use flinny's 10.1 rom ???? the link given in the above post was dead
please provide a link to a rom which i can flash and get the stock ICS htc rom ... my hboot version is 7.**** .... which i upgraded today ... i am not pro i just want something which would solve the problem just by flashing
The simplest thing would be to flash some custom rom with HTC Sense, there are a few ics ones in the development section (with sense 3.6, like the stock ics, or with the newer sense 4/4.1)

Yes, as your phone is s-off now, just flash the rom in recovery (after wiping data, cache and Dalvik cache).
I really don't want to get into a discussion about which rom is "best", so I recommend you look in the development section for roms that say "sense 3.6" or "sense 4" or similar, and have quite recent comments in the threads; read at least the last few pages of the threads, and the op, to see if there are any known issues etc., then try one, if you don't like it, or want a change, try another one.

its too confusing ... i am seeing that the sense ICS roms are having some WIFI and Front CAM not working issues :crying: please give me a link of a rom that's working without any such issues and is ICS ... Sense Version doesn't matter to me unless it's 3.0 + .... please give a link of a rom which you think will be most helpful to me right
THANKS AHEAD !!! :good:
Ok, I would use this rom as a starting point, but remember you can always make a nandroid backup, try a new rom, and return to the previous ROM by restoring the backup:

Recently, some people seem to be reporting issues with sms, but considering how long this rom has been there and how many people have used it, I think these issues are only affecting very few users
Is there a jb rom .... I know they don't support Hitachi panel but I heard that some midi kernerls are there which if I flash these roms will work
