[Q] Defy2ndInit?? - Defy General

Have a Defy with stock 2.2 Froyo dutchversion and have rooted it as i wanted to make some overclock. I also installed Defy2ndInit so i can use the multitouch app thats availble on market but i get some problems with that. When i have it installed my camera wont work as i should! When i open the camera i can't see any preview on the screen! When i take a picture it works but the display is always black.
So black display when recording or taking pictures with Defy2ndInit installed. When i unistall it the camera works fine! Anyone having a clue?

You have to restart your phone once you're entered and you've modified something in 2nd Init.

I had the same problem, and found a excellent explanation and workaround here (sorry for not pointing to the original thread, I have lost it):
the bootmenu contained in Defy2ndinit has a bug (afaik still not corrected even in newer versions) that cause mis-initialization of video4linux. This leads to black screen in camera viewfinder, but also all video playback (media playback will also lead to a black screen).
The workaround is to boot your defy without lauching bootmenu, i.e. use the default boot feature.
If you need to change something in bootmenu, change it, test it after the reboot, and if everything is ok (except video4linux of course), reboot another time using default boot ( WITHOUT entering bootmenu (do not press volup/down when blue led is on)). As bootmenu was not started, video4linux will initialize correctly and you will have a working cam preview and video playback...

so you mean to say we have to set the boot to normal from 2nd init . and then reboot again so that we bypass the bootmenu ???
Edit : yes you were right . The bootmenu is causing the problem i had set the bootmenu to boot normally (Normal in menu) and hence my camera is working again . is there any workaround for that ? as of now ?

None that I am aware of. You can still install cm7 or other custom rom though, just have to select 2nd init booy as default boot...and always default reboot after using bootmenu. More an annoyance than a critical bug imho...

Thanks, fixed my "black" camera problem too

Excuse me! joydeep1985, I've fixed the problem, but how do I access to the Android Boot Menu again? Because default boot now is normal, the device will not pause at Android Boot anymore.

My Defy+ suffered the blank screen using camera and video after applying 720p patch I tried to reboot in normal way but there was no effect. I tried to unnstall 2ndinit and now it works!

When you reboot defy, immediately after you See the blue led press volume down which will then boot into boot menu. Enjoy!

Cyanogenmod camera issue

I've just installed cyanogenmod. Really satisfied =D
Except the fact that my camera is not working. When it opens, the screen is black with a few camera options. I really need the camera function urgently as my phone is my only camera and I have a lot of notes to scan using my phone. Please help =( Thanks in advance!
Try rebooting. I had the same issue.
rebooting doesnt work.. i have the same issue.. tried a camera fix (flashable zip) but still no dice ... it mite work for u maybe try it out http://www.4shared.com/get/17jiqADA/CWR-CM4DX-CameraFix.html
just boot into recovery and install from sdcard.
default-reboot, i.e. you have to define 2ndinit boot as default boot option, and then reboot without pressing vol_down when blue led is on. Your defy has to boot by itself, without bootmenu ever being launched. It is the bootmenu that corrupt viedo4linux initialization, and v4l is needed for cam preview (among other thing, media player do not show video without v4l too)

[DEV][ROM][JB 4.3][Unofficial] PAC-man

Issue:
No BT call.
Broken audio in VOIP (viber,skype,teamspeak etc). Tinyalsa would fix that, but it breaks calls.
Mic key (voice search) works, you need to enable: settings -> system -> hardware keys -> enable custom actions (check) and app switch set to voice search.
To get home key logn press action: settings -> system -> hardware keys -> enable custom actions (check) and home key (long press) set to Recent app switcher
When you upgrade, phone app may not work, you must remove the shourtcut, and readd. (thanks scotte9999)
Sometimes it stuck boot logo (cm,samsung,roger), please remove the battery and wait atleast 5 minutes,
Offline charger, you can leave with removing charger and holding power button for 2 sec, and glide will boot.
Liblight works very simple, when your lcd birghtness low buttons and keyboard light is on. You can use qwertyled or other liblight,read more.
Slow storage performance in some apps.

included, original gapps doesnt compatible with tegra2 devices.
Thanks for the quick reply man, flashing as we speak; haven't updated my ROM in ages Will report back any findings.
edit: Apart from some text to speech crashes, everything's peachy so far
so far so good gooodwork!
flashed, no problem so far (except the known issues). No lag wake or delayed-until-wake SMS seen, but i've just flashed the ROM for 12 hours so I can say that they are reduced, but i'm not sure if they are fixed or not. I prefer the old style quick setting button, but this is good tho
Wow, I was surprised at how functional this was for how new the thread is.Everything I've tried has worked with no issue (basic functions, data, a2dp bluetooth, sd card, wifi, gps). going to try and Wifi tether and actually trying to use the "phone" functins when I get a chance.
One thing so far, I don't think this has been said, is that the recents takes forever to pop up (like 6-7 seconds!). I tried remapping it away from the home button, but it still didn't speed up.
Also, where do I customise those handy shortcuts in the recents? and wtf is a ribbon?
it looks like there's some problem with the WiFi toggling.
Action: pressing the WiFi button on quick setting panel and the quick pulldown menu
Expected result: the button flipped and show the new icon indicate that the WiFi has been turned on
Actual result: the button flipped, but the icon is still the old one (it's the icon when WiFi is off)
I tried going to setting and press the WiFi button, it switched from "Off" to "On" and stayed there for about 10 seconds, then switched bak to "Off" again.
It's pretty rare 'cause I only met this twice after 2 days using, a reboot will solve the problem.

better, but not must.
Phone app changed, so you must remove shortcuts and readd.

Today I got a lot of "Cell Broadcasts" messages, contents are unreadable (only weird symbols), this ended after a reboot, anyone ?
BTW, when plugin in the charger while the phone is off it displays a charging icon (a circle with a battery), normally it will automatically turns on the phone when the battery reaches - let's say - 15%. But to this ROM it doesn't, I have to do a manual reboot.

[ROM][CM7] Defy Pro XT560 Support Thread

This is a support thread for the ROM posted here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49394355
* It is very important to clear factory data/cache after installing the CM7 rom.
* If your stuck on the android boot screen, connect usb and do a logcat to see what it is crashing on.
* The battery_charger has been replaced in this build as a safety backup to get into bootmenu. Anytime the phone is powered off and then plugged in it will boot to bootmenu instead of the charging screen.
* It is very important to clear factory data/cache after installing the CM7 rom.

I make all wipe data/cache and even Dalvik cache before and after install CM7 - but I stuck on the android boot screen.
But note: I made all wipes from CWM, because stock recovery is not works on my phone (only green robot and yellow triangle and that's all - nothing key works, only pull battery helps).
* If your stuck on the android boot screen, connect usb and do a logcat to see what it is crashing on.

How can I make this (run logcat)?
Thanks for the advices.
Im not sure the clear data/cache works right in CWM. I have not tested it. To access the menu in the stock recovery hit the Home key.
To output a logcat open a command prompt and run "adb logcat"
If you want to output it to a file use "adb logcat > filename.txt"
so there is some querrys:
- torch app does not work as a flashlight, while it stay in status bar and even task killer wont help
- led notification light does not work at all, i guess there is no app for that and original is missing
- it wont unlock sim card, or lock it while it's unlocked. message is "incorrect pin". previously unlocked on other phone sim works fine. pin correct.
- the reboot menu list wont operate with joystick, only touch.
- both cameras wont work in skype, when forced induce crash.
- dev tools options become a force close
- voice dialer started by long press call button opens in wrong screen orientation and does not work. it work if started from all apps.
- superuser does not ask about allowing su permissions, there is no app listed as allowed su perm. while all super su apps works fine as usual.
- yandex maps app issue. rendering map result is quite not what it should be
I did it! Thanks for stock recovery main key (Home) .
And now some my notes (first, I use Russian language and CM7 has it).
- torch app doesn't work - this right for me too;
- about led - not work too;
- about sim - not check this yet;
- the reboot menu OPERATE for me with D-Pad;
- I don't use Skype;
- dev tools work in full for me;
- all correct about voice dialer;
- it's right too;
- don't install yandex maps yet.

was't been working for me too, but first reboot solved it
a lot of apps that uses the hardware gpu does not work properly, i guess this is same as camera driver problem and it can't be resolved till motorola releases it freely(only if)
also i am having issue with call ringtone - it rings for fraction of a second and then goes silent
I missed some egl librarires in the build, copying the attached files to /system/lib/egl should correct some of the graphic issues.

Oh, I think I made a mistake.
I was on a enhanced 2.3.6 on my S5660, with a CWM 5.0.27 but I wanted to try this ROM.
So I downloaded the CWM 6053_1 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal.../dev-cwm-recovery-upd-20140630-t2799784/page2
And try to flash it from the recovery 5.0.27.
Then rebooted in recovery with power and home key and it seems is in boot loop.
Samsung logo appears, then screen goes white, and then black again, and restarts.
How can I solve?
---------- Post added at 10:40 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:09 AM ----------
Also trying to install CWM 5.0.27 again via Odin, it stucks on setup connection.
Oh ****. What else can I try?
---------- Post added at 11:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------
Temporarily solved thanks to one try to get into Download mode (yellow font) and the with Odin everything works.

Great, ROM Installed, but no Play Store?
How do I install any APP?
:crying::crying:
Also, little bug, when screen is locked, it says "NO SIM inside", but obviously the SIM is inside.
Could you please post ggapps package for this ROM?
I tried download the small package from here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps
But it doesnt works.
At leasts I just need the Play Store!
I Just found a Play Store apk for cm11, downloaded and installed but it doesnt works.
Also, ROM it seems really laggy, dont know why...
Going back to my backup of 2.3.6, sorry.
Waiting for a gapps package that works with this Rom.
Failed to go back to 2.3.6, it was stuck on boot logo and nothing else.
So I tried to reinstall again this CM 11.
It seems is working but for me is pretty unusable without Play Store or Gapps.
Could you please help me?
Thx

first impressions
Just installed this rom and here's what i found at a glance:
Positive:
- rom is stable, snappy and all in all behaves very well
- the folder management for icons is just what i needed
Neutral:
- changing the network signal icon to dB makes it so you can't know when you have data on or not at a glance. i like to know how much radiation i'm exposed to and find the best spot for signal when it's very low, but the text should turn brown or show some arrows or something when data is on. i have seen this however on all other roms, so i don't know if you can change that
- phone should start with 2G mode, no sync, data off, location off - if the user doesn't have any data left, the first time i run the rom it will just cost cost him money for nothing. 3G signal (in Romania at least) is a lot worse than 2G one, so why make the user take extra steps? - 2G/3G mode should also be on quick panel, as well as sound
- the Heart App has a Google Play icon in upper right corner - click on it and it opens lightning browser which "is no longer compatible", i get a link below which is "not available"
- maybe you could include a quick tile icon for turning the display into flashlight (like in CM12)
- no out of the box blank background. however i cound install from PlayStore black backgroud (13KB) and the option appeared. maybe you include this in next build and cut some of the other live wallpapers to reduce size even more
- while booting, until hola screen appears, the display is on maximum brightness - this is an unnecesary power drain
- on first boot there is a some sort of an error message regading hola launcher and the inability to set it as default laucher. "try again" brings again the message, "later" dismisses it
Negative:
- camera fails to focus correctly. best clarity i found for gio was in LeWa port , however that rom is based on CM7 and i don't know if you can just take from there and port it here
- WiFi signal is rather low and sometimes although it finds the network, does not connect to it. Again, the chinese port somehow manages to connect to wifi in 3-4 seconds after i turn wifi on with better signal
- I'm using S2E (as i find it better than link2sd) but moving the Dalvik cache seems to break some system functions. i only tested it with wifi that failed to turn on afterwards, but as this function is very important i moved back the Dalvik, checked only the other boxes in S2E and now it's all good
All in all a solid work, well done !
P.S. You should post a link in the first post to a recommended gapps, as i find the Mardon gapps quite large (about 30MB) and maybe some users just want the Play app (without all that other data sent to Google), which is about 8MB

I appreciate your opinion about this rom. I am a teenager and I want to learn a lot about the custom rom. For me it's a new "territory", In vacation I will try to learn more. I'm also from Romania. Thank you for trying my rom. A good day!
keyboard Caps
great to hear that!
i played around a bit more with the rom and found a small but annoying issue, especially when sending sms: in the preinstalled keyboard app "classic keyboard", instead of Shift that buttons works as Caps Lock, turning all letters to uppercase. Also after . keyboard turns to uppercase as it's supposed to, but forgets to turn to normal case after first letter (i don't use word prediction).
Not only that, but the app has FULL NETWORK ACCESS, which a keyboard app should NOT, as it could send account credentials to the devs. The entire XDA project started as a way to offer a safe alternative to what corporations force on us and their "well known" policies. If you want a lightweight keyboard app with as few permissions as possible and great functions, i recommend the good old Hacker's Keyboard, from PlayStore. It's only 2.4 MB (compared to 1.8) but has no bugs and offers Ctrl and Alt in Landscape.
spor!

When I install gapps I get a load of messages "unfortunately xx. has stopped working" with xx being google play services among other things.
I have tried various gapps packages including mardons latest and tried with and without the accounts zip.
I have:
-carry out full wipe
-flash cwm 6.0.5.3.
-reboot to recovery
-Flash ROM
-Restart to OS, play about a bit, restart to recovery
- Flash gapps, flash account.zip
-reboot to OS
Thanks in advance

I have found somewhere on xda a while ago some gapps that work flawlessly with this rom (less than 8 MB).
There's only PlayStore but all the rest you install from there on.
Hope the attachment helps !
Thanks @andrei.nica, I've tried it and still get the same problem. On installing gapps I don't actually see the playstore appear at all. Cyanogen account crashes gives the 'stopped' message, so does whisperpush. But this only happens after installing gapps...
reinstall

Here's how i do: as i'm not a fan of nand backup, i back my contacts (by exporting to SD) and whatever apps on SD (not their data) with apkshare and then from CWM: wipe data/factory reset+ wipe cache partition+wipe system(in mounts&storage)+wipe dalvik cache (in advanced) - install the rom.zip, boot the rom to see how it behaves, then install gapps.zip.
However i have a SD that i've partitioned in 2 as it helps with the number of apps i can install: one fat and one ext2 (i think, about 500MB) - you can do it from CWM or Ubuntu - so that i move apps to second partition using S2E. For this rom however, i've had some errors when selecting also moving Dalvik cache, so I untick last option in S2E.

LG G4 half-bricked / full unusable

Hi everybody !
I usually (always normally) succeed myself at resolve my phone problems, but this time I can't do anything.
My problem :
I have a LG G4 ; I saw an update of Imperium Rom (v8) this morning, so I installed it, everything worked well until I decided to install a, apparently, ****ed mod on xposed ; and since I have rebooted I can't do anything ; the LG logo shows and just after "UI system as stopped", just one time but, then I can't do anything, screens over screens, can't access parameters, password required, "flex mode" (never saw this before), re-password, system UI restart, loading background, restart system UI; and this in a infinite loop SOOOOO
I decided to reset it, yeah... But I can't access my recovery, wow o/
I followed the step to access it by switch it off and press volume down etc --> It just boot normally, or best in safe mode by magic but same problem ; via parameters but I can't access parameters ; and via ADB buuut my phone isn't recognized even with the complete sdk, drivers, everything you want, there's nothing to do because --> while restarting system UI it deconnects so of course it can be recognized
I removed xposed (while I could still access recovery, as I was thinking it was coming from the xposed module) and so now I can't even access recovery via shutdown menu (as I had put "reboot to recovery" in via Xblast, a xposed module) ; and of course it doesn't change anything
I neeeeed your help so much, I don't mind losing what's on it :crying:

Please ensure you REALLY use the correct key combo! Just saying bla does not tell us what exactly you tried.
If you really can't get in you can try to Boot into download mode

Then use lgup to reinstall stock ROM and do all the stuff again to get twrp, root and a custom ROM.

Thank for your answer ! No it couldn't even boot in download mode
I resolved my problem by forcing again the buttons to reset completely, it finally showed me after about 30 boots or more the reset screen, I said "ok" ; and in fact it just rebooted saying "updating Android", I did not lost anything.
I still don't understand how it happened but anyway !
I don't know if it's possible to set the topic as resolved ? I don't find it
