manish, 19 Oct 2011I had just purchased defy and has been struggling with basi... moreI am using my Defy for last 2 - 3 weeks. Once you tweak it a little bit, then it is an excellent smartphone. First thing you have to do it to switch off the GPS. GPS sucks the battery. Make sure you use WI-FI, Bluetooth and Mobile data only on demand. So most of the time it should be off. Keep the brightness only 25% or less. That is enough for most of the time. With these settings, I am getting battery for 2 days which I think is very good for an Android phone.

              Well to those who need to update to 2.3.7 cyanogenmod 7.1 .. Follow the steps here
              http://www.techofweb.com/technology/installing-cm7-motorola-defy.html
              or
              http://mobilegeeky.com/install-android-2-3-4-gingerbread-cyanogenmod-7-motorola-defy/

              Instead of the 2.3.5 or 2.3.4 rom flash it with the rom from the below website
              http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?type=stable&device=umts_jordan

              This is the official stable rom.. And instead of the google apps from the above 2 websites .. use
              http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version#Google_Apps
              i.e: 20110828

              Quadrant score of my defy is 2713 !

                      manish, 19 Oct 2011I had just purchased defy and has been struggling with basi... moreWhen you say " struggling with basic functions like text editing",are you talking about SMSing?Pl make sure that your inut method is not Swype cause if it is first time it will be difficult.
                      "It has not been supporting 3G services from tata docomo"- Are you that your APN values are correct?

                        I had just purchased defy and has been struggling with basic functions like text editing, browsing, etc.

                        The battery life is awful inspite of boasting 1530mAh battery.

                        Screen quality is far inferior then Samsung AMoLED

                        worst part is the touch screen that gets operated on itself.

                        It has not been supporting 3G services from tata docomo, the very thing smart phone is meant to do.

                        the silver lining out of all these odd problem is its asthetic look and handy size that can easily fit in the pocket.

                            I hate this phone. It's slow, lagging, restarts by it self, at times it has difficulties to connect to internet, and what's up with the smilyes on my phone? all "B"s turns into the smily with sunglasses and problems with other smilys too.
                            I'm getting a new phone cause I can't stand this one, and I'd rather use my old SE T700 in the meantime than to continue with this. I'm about to break this into a million pieces in frustration.

                                  Which is better?Samsung Galaxy Ace or Motorola Defy ??

                                  I heard that motoblur kills the processing speed(lags).Is it so?

                                  Samsung Galaxy Ace is Awesome! But the case is its GPU is just Andreo 200.. so.. which is better for:

                                  Good battery life
                                  Gaming

                                  Browsing


                                  Thanks in Advance.
