once ppl see it can be thrown on the floor and swim with the fishes, they'll choose wisely afterwards.

stock speed running at 800MHz, motorola said it is TI OMAP 3610.

but rsd lite and windows reported the phone having 3630 instead. but judging from the benchmark, it can match the droid x on the same 1ghz speed even tho its running on android 2.1, so I prefer to call it 3630 instead.

to change the home launcher, just go to the android market and download launcher pro. once its installed, just press the home button then select launcher pro from the list. you should feel the difference in menu response after that but you'll lose all the widgets that u have with motoblur. some of it u can add back within launcher pro but some u cant.

if we look at the spec sheet for omap 3610 from TI, there is no powervr sgx gpu inside 3610. i dont know if motorola managed to custom built the chip and added the gpu inside, is that even possible?

no need to root to use launcher pro. just remember to turn off Data Saver in Data Manager to be able to download stuff from the adroid market.

if you look at the benchmark screenshot that I posted, you can imagine how it will perform once it has froyo running. my guess is it will outperform even the mighty nexus one smile.gif

Defy overclocked to 1.3GHz and with Froyo JIT installed. Not my phone but someone has done it.

Oh crap, I hope mine is not affected.

Btw, to disable gps go to settings - location & security, or just put a gps toggle widget on the home screen

i believe it only occurred to some batches, bad news is there are people who bought this phone from clove experienced the problem. this is my 3rd week using it, and i use the earphone everyday to work. but i already planned to buy a stereo bluetooth earphone anyway.

currently the support manager in motorola support forum is getting some information from all defy owners around the world and there are a few who bought from clove uk. im not sure if its a hardware or software issues because there are cases that the audio jack has never been used before but still experienced the speaker issue. im waiting for motorola to come out with an official statement about this.

hmmm heard news that Maxis will launch Desire Z and a few android models... duno whether got this or not...
too bad i'm in the middle of the contract... cannot extend if not sure i'll consider this with Desire Z...

desire z?

jiangchen: sbf is the firmware flash file that consist of all the software required for the phone to run. if your phone is not working or cant be turn on, by reinstalling back this file will revive back the phone as long as there is no issue with phone hardware. its like reformatting and reinstalling your windows machine.
