[MOD]Upgrading OpenGL to 2.0

harut56 · Mar 2, 2012

Hi guys!.Managed to add OpenGL 2.0 driver support to our Heroes.Don't expect any miracles,our GPU can't support everything,that requires 2.0 graphics.The mod increases display performance,gives a high boost to Android 4.0 ROMs(turns on hardware accelerating) and maybe helps in some games.For those,who want to try it,flash attach from CWM Recovery(zip is not signed).In case if something goes wrong or you want to turn it off just delete file data/local.prop

turns on hardware acceleration?

Does it work on all Android versions?

Habarug · Mar 2, 2012

Nice, I want to try this, especially on ICS. Have you tried it on ICS yourself?

Here's a signed one for Amon_RA users

Or something like that.On our local forum almost all testers on ICS reported,that their phones become much more fast and responsive.I tried it myself on ZeroHero,it increased scrolling speed a bit

I tried it on ICS now, and I got to say, it's a HUGE improvement! Really! Of course, it's not like VE, but for example pulling down the pulldownbar is about as smooth as it's possible. With this mod I think I can use ICS as a daily!

Thanks

could you make a video or something like that? i need my phone at the moment for work :/

so i can't try it...but would like to see the results

@topic: this is really exciting

i hope someone can port the new cdma version & use this....maybe there is a change for a usable ics on hero

BeatsByMessi · Mar 2, 2012

maybe, just maybe it will be possible to get a fully functioning ics rom on our heroes (well hopefully anyway)

Sorry, I´m already back at VE, as I also needed my phone :/

Edit: BTW, congratz Harut56, this is the first time in a LONG time there has been some development on the GSM side which isn´t a port from CDMA

Habarug · Mar 3, 2012

I made a signed version on the previous page, that one works on Amon_RA

bluepinkpanther · Mar 3, 2012

I can't see any difference on latest CM nightly.

tats because cm nightly's already have open gl 2.0,even decked elelinux and most roms already implement open gl2.0,its only certain builds that dont use opengl 2.0 like zero hero and most 2.2 and below roms...

Okay :>

too short
