Real gingerbread kernel 2.35 or else all bullshit.wats ur kernel version? ?

Added on July 20, 2011, 11:23 am
Correction gingerbread 2.6.35 kernel. Anyone has this kernel? ?
*
CM7 is not based on the ginger kernal because of the locked bootloader. Unless someone crack the booloader or Moto release the gingerbread,we won't get real ginger kernal. Or you can try flashing the leak ginger,it has the real ginger kernal smile.gif

I overclocked to 1ghz as well,since the 1st day I bought my defy,no worry,1ghz is VERY safe for Defy. My clock 18/300,30/600,50/1000,no FC or whatsover.

Btw,can you guys download the latest CM7 Nightlies? I can't seem to enter the page,just show me blank white page.

Edit: I tried enter using proxy server,finally can enter the page & download the nightly sweat.gif

choose the stable recovery (for CM7),then reboot 2 times. Then reboot again into bootmenu,choose boot default to 2init,then full wipe(data/cache/dalvik/battery stats),then go to recovery & choose the downloaded zip(CM7) from SD card & reboot to enjoy CM7 rclxms.gif

I using the boot 179-4 nightly,the battery is way more impressing than the previous RC1v2. You can try the SEA kernal also,heard the same performance with 179-4,but with different kernal biggrin.gif

the latest version of miui ported the cm7 boot179 I guest,which suffer from the overclock menu problem found in cmw. But latest cm7 nightly already corrected it,just wait for next fri release,should be fixed ^^ latest cm7 nightly comes with crystal talk that we had in moto stock rom brows.gif

QUOTE(cientoo @ Aug 16 2011, 11:29 AM)
hello defy MIUI users...care to explain how the battery use in settings>system>battery settings works?...

what i am facing is whenever i fully charged my phone, the battery use indications does not reset itself but instead continued to count from the previous charge...so i can get like "Battery has been lasting for 4d 13h 44m 48s now" which is not true..

I thought it would reset itself after i unplugged from power socket..but not for my case.
*
try charge it longer & unplug it? Or reboot the phone?

QUOTE(sanosizo @ Aug 16 2011, 01:39 PM)
im only interested in its battery and gingerbread biggrin.gif

Current battery already very good with 2 days usage biggrin.gif but gingerbread kernel is definitely drooling drool.gif

alright..done..thanks tyenfei & jeniiu!

now my defy is back to 2.2.2 for "medical check-up" HAHA..

will root back to cm7 after the check-up today...i heard 2.3.5 is already out? anyone of u using it?

and one more thing, when im in 2.3.4 cm7 before this, i always have this problem :
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


I never had these problems before,all games ran smoothly,not even a single FC on any games. Sounds like sdcard error to me. Try to backup your sdcard,reformat it and restore everything. (I tried assasin creed/nfs/dungeon def). Or you can try update to CM7 nightly of the 0822 (Boot 179-4),so far the best & stable CM7 I tried,and it's 2.3.5 with crystal talk also. I didn't try the nightlies after RC1.5 because xda forum shows those are still not stable including RC1.5 biggrin.gif

U trolled me by telling me defy+ 's processor is a overclock ver of the original defy processor  shakehead.gif

I think should be the opposite,defy cpu was underclocked from 1ghz to 800mhz,that's why most of our defy can run 1.2ghz steadily,that's already 50% upgrade of our stock cpu tongue.gif

Hmm...for all flashers,please remember to check your md5sum for every new roms you downloaded,sometimes bootloops might caused by corrupted file. I once experienced bootloop,even I flashed for 2nd time,still bootloop. I checked the md5sum of the file I downloaded to pc,no problem,then I check the file in my sdcard,damn,the md5 missmatch. lol...so even your file in pc is fine,problem might happen during file transfering to sdcard
