VaniljEclair RLS11 - A fast & stable CM 5.0.8 for Vogue/Kaiser/Polaris [2010-08-19]
- Thread starter kallt_kaffe
- Start date
i thought i was just partial to Aqtrans, but that was really the best build until yours.
JIT comes as a update file on myns eclair. id like to see some post if anyone has tried it with this build. so far its just added bugs that are worse than the small speed gain(did not try it on aqtrans either) your build is the most stable and maybe benifit from JIT. i wont be able to test for a while...i need a break from re installing systems on my main *only* phone

You did the trick kallt, this one is amazing with everything working fast
it will make me wait until CM 5.0.8
(not too long)I checked that update and I think the only thing you need to do is to add this line to the end of /system/build.prop
Code:
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jitHowever only the Market apps uses the dalvik cache and if you've choosen to odex them too then the dalvik cache isn't used at all I think. I'm not sure if this JIT thing is tied to the dalvik-cache but if it is then it may to have any effect at all.
I'll do some research on what that setting does when/if I get time but feel free to try it and let us know if it made any difference.
two things I noticed with this build...
and maybe it's just me.
1. I am getting FC's with better terminal.
apk worked in all other eclair builds.
2. just for fun I tried neocore to get a fps
neocore installs and loads up OK but it wont run.
this apk worked fine on most every other build
however, I did have problems running it with poly's 2.1g
other than that I am super impressed with this build.
i did swap out contacts and phone with apks from poly2.1g... fits nicer with 120dpi. I am too blind for 106dpi LOL

it does use dalvik-cache. instruction say to clear it after enabling JIT because...
you shouldnt waste your time looking into it right now then
I tried and found out why. Try the attached update. It stopped the FC for me.
Strange, I just ran it and got 20.4fps. Are you sure you have hw3d.version set to 1?
I've tried this ROM over the weekend and it's still the best Eclair I tried so far.
The only thing i've noticed that video won't play with meridian player. I believe the Myn Eclair Build has the player working.
Thus my question how is this possible, but seeing your above reaction, could it be that this hw3d is needed?
(if so, noob question, how to turn this on?
)Thanks again for the ROM.

Thanks again for the ROM.
By using an Eclair-enabled NBH (for NAND) or by having hw3d.version=1 in your default.txt (or startup.txt) if you are HaRET booting. But you propably allready have that setup.
I'm running from NAND, but I've changed between Donut and Eclair so many times, I probably don't have the Eclair-enabled NBH (don't know).
I'll try this.
Thanks for the help.
Using the how-to thread (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=621001) I got the latest Eclair NBH from here:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/
Dated 2010-02-20
After flashing, booting was extremely slow and did not get all the way through.
I pulled the battery and rebooted witch went fast as usual and booted like normal.
However the video was still not working.
Within Meridian I can scroll through a video, but it will not continue to play.
As said, I believe it did work on other (eclair) builds so I don't think it's the Meridian that's causing the trouble, and I also think the ROM is just fine, I'm just missing a small part to make it work.
You said that with Haret a extra line of code could do the trick. With NAND, can I add the same line using terminal? If so.. how
Update: Since the update my Wifi didn't work anymore so I had to go back to another NBH (probably non-eclair).

Now, that's a really old kernel...
Get this one: http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/voguimg-240x320-eclair-12-06-10.nbh from DZO's archive
Then use Loserskaters NBH Editor from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=689812
Use the NBH editor to convert the Vogue NBH into a Kaiser NBH.
No, however you can convert a Donut NBH into an Eclair NBH with either a HEX editor or the NBH Edtior.You said that with Haret a extra line of code could do the trick. With NAND, can I add the same line using terminal? If so.. how
Yes, that's because the wlan.ko we use nowadays won't work with the old kernel you used.
getprop worked great...ty
although I am still getting a blank screen on neocore.
I am using nbh from my nbhcreator. using dzo's 6-12 zImage.
I am going to try your latest nbh and see if that is the issue.
I am also having funny led issues.
...back in a few...
OK... your nbh works the exact same as the one from my nbhcreator.
I still get a blank screen when clicking 'run' on neocore.
I am sure I have a bad apk. I will download a new one later to verify.
I am concerned about the weird led issue. I don't get a charge light at all. even while device is ON. and when I do things like copy a file, it blinks blue forever. I think this may be a kernel issue but I haven't seen anyone else complain about it.

4VaniljEclair RLS11 - A fast & stable CM 5.0.8 for Vogue/Kaiser/Polaris [2010-08-19]
I just wanted a plain, clean, vanilla Eclair so I did my own Cyanogenmod-5 port.
I've worked with the assumption that CM is allready heavily optimized and I've tried to change the bare minimum to make it run on my Kaiser. I also wanted to try the odex idea that dzo suggests here:http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=694597
So everything is pre-odex:ed and zipaligned when you install this which means first boot is quick and you can start using it at once.
It's using LCD density 120 which is the default for 240x320 Android devices but the original build is designed for 320x480 at density 160 so some adjustments had to be done.
No many bells & whistles... just a plain Cyanogenmod-5 based Eclair build. Add your own choice of "bells & whistles" from the Market (or other sources).
Some screens of how it can look, depending on how you set it up and what you install:
Install
- Get it here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/androidhtc/files/2010-08-19/VaniljEclair_RLS11.zip/download
- Install as usual, NAND or SD, whatever suits you.
- Boot and use it. No need to wait a magic period of time. Everything is zipaligned and odexed allready.
Post installation configuration scripts (run them without parameters to get valid options)
- wifi_level.sh
- lcd_density.sh
- default_network.sh
- hsxpa.sh
- gprsclass.sh
- bootanim.sh
- wifi_scan_interval.sh
Run them as root (type su before running them)
Known issues
- BT works for phonecalls but not for listening to music (same for all Eclair builds)
- Video playback
Changes in RLS11
- Removed busybox and symlinks that wasn't used.
- Some script changes
- Added relocate_apps.sh and initrd.gz that supports it (see this thread for more info)
- Put back som iptables commands in wireless_tethering_2.02.apk that was previously removed due to lack of support in kernel.
- Added missing netfilter/iptables modules to the kernel and also one module that I believe will make Droidwall work.
IMPORTANT! To use wireless tethering and/or the apps relocation you must flash one of the new NBH's (attached). HaRET users, just use the included kernel and initrd.gz.
Changes in RLS10b
- Has the latest libhtcgeneric-ril.so where 3G/2G switching works much better.
- Updated default_network.sh so that it updates build.prop AND changes network mode in realtime (no need to reboot).
- Added bootanim.sh that can be used to easily enable/disable the bootanimation (speeds up booting with about 15-20 seconds)
- Updated userinit.sh (due to changes in default_network.sh)
Attached files for RLS10
- A better version of libhtcgeneric-ril.so where "Use only 2G networks" works much better.
Changes in RLS10
- SIM pincode support
- Cell tower location support (Kaiser/Polaris)
- Decreased height of Android keyboard slightly
- Support for "Use 2G networks only" (Kaiser/Polaris)
- Adjusted default_network.sh script so that is also used to set default network at boot time (Kaiser/Polaris)
- Replaced bluetooth firmwares and loading method with the ones used by dzo in Fresh Froyo.
- Added wifi_scan_interval.sh script to easily change this value in build.prop
Attached updates for RLS9
New libhtcgeneric-ril.so with
- cell tower location working (on Kaiser/Polaris)
- SIM pincode support (not tested on Vogue)
- "Use only 2G networks" now works
The "gsm_only_at_boot" update has a modified userinit.sh (and the new libhtcgeneric-ril.so) that has a little hack to force GSM only at boot time. Without it it always defaults to WCDMA(3G) preferred at boot. Choose this update if you want GSM only be default. If not, choose the other one.
Changed in RLS9
- Removed LatinIME.apk and VoiceSearch.apk and replaced them with VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk
Changed in RLS8b (RLS8 to RLS8b update attached)
- Fix for the wifi tethering
- Included urban69's fix-tether.sh script. It's not needed now, but may be useful for future versions of the Wireless tethering app.
Changed in RLS8
- New compcache modules (needs a recent kernel as they expect support in the kernel). Compcache also enables after a 120 second delay just like in the recent Froyo releases to avoid SD-card issues.
- Updated camera libs which makes the build support Froyo kernels (11Mb extra memory) (Thansk dlepage for the work with the Eclair camera lib)
- Superuser permissions app now works as it should (thanks urban69)
- Wifi calibration is now saved on /data instead of /sdcard so sdcard does not need to be present for Wifi to work. (another nice idea from urban69)
- Slightly modified Wireless tethering app included (modifed to read calibration data from /data/calibration instead of /proc/calibration (thanks to urban69 for figuring out what needed to be done to get this one working on our devices)
- Added HTC_IME touch input. (as there was just enough space left in the build)
Changed in RLS7c
- see below. Just made a new complete archive with the safer scripts.
Post RLS7b updates (attached)
- Some changes to the scripts that changes build.prop (default_network.sh, hsxpa.sh, gprsclass.sh and lcd_density.sh) as I noticed they totally wiped build.prop when used on Froyo. Haven't seen that happen on Eclair but just be sure, apply this update if you plan to use any of these scripts.
Changed in RLS7b
- Replaced camera libs with the working one. If you are running RLS7, no need to reinstall, just use the CameraUpdate.zip.
Post RLS7 updates
- 2010-06-30 - CameraUpdate.zip(attached) - New version of the camera libs.
Changed in RLS7
- Changed Wifi power mode from high to medium.
- Added scripts to change wifi power level, default_network, hsxpa, gprsclass and lcd_density.
- Tweaked odex script to handle upgrades and uninstalls.
- More QVGA adjustments to Phone.apk
- Removed the outdated Google Maps.
- Updated camera lib to latest version.
- New zImage for HaRET users (fixes BT phone calls on Kaiser which has been broken since the 2010-06-23 kernel).
- VoiceSearchWithKeyboard attached as an update (pre-odex:ed and zipaligned)
Changed in RLS6
- Garbled text bug fixed thanks to yath2r.
- Camera now works thanks to dlepage.
- Did my own QVGA adjustment of Contacts.apk (Dialer)
- QVGA adjusted Phone.apk (in call keypads)
- QVGA adjusted DeskClock.apk (Clock app)
- Autodetects device and sets up the correct model name so Polaris users should see "Welcome to HTC Polaris" and so on.
- Added (disabled by default) renice service (/system/bin/renice.sh) and printprio.sh script for advanced users who want to experiment with changing prios. (Not tested)
- Tweaked LED controller a little.
- Added HaRET boot environment to make it easier for new users.
Changed in RLS5
- New base CM 5.0.8DS (See CM changelog for details). Some things you will notice is the new launcher, music player fits better in QVGA and Spare Parts is integrated into Settings.
- Wallpapers have been resized to QVGA.
- busybox and toolbox symlinks are setup at first boot.
- Modem app added.
Changed in RLS4
- QVGA dialer
- Wifi & bluetooth LEDs (flashing when turned on)
- Propably the last release based on CM 5.0.7
Post RLS3b updates (attached)
- 2010-06-18 Stole some .xml files from Contacts.apk in Polymod 2.1g and made the dialer fit better in 240x320@120dpi (QVGA).
Changed in RLS3b
- Google sync works again.
Post RLS3 updates (attached)
- 2010-06-17 RLS3 to RLS3b update. Fixes Google sync issue.
Changed in RLS3
- Default LCD density changed to 120 (because screen calibration doesn't like 106)
- Included screen calibration app.
- Included the original Google Maps that is supposed to go with the build as it nows fit within the system partition.
- Resized the boot animation from 320x256 to 240x192 so save space and also to make it look like it's intended to do.
- Compcache can now be enabled/disabled in Spare Parts. Default is to use 25% of the available RAM. Edit /system/bin/compcache.sh to tweak the settings.
- Odexing of Market apps and the Marketenabler (both disabled by default) can be enabled in /system/bin/userinit.sh
- Included the patch that was release after RLS2 (BT headset fix, getprop fix and charging LED fix)
- Propably something else that I've forgotten... EDIT: Just remembered. I've done some tweaking in /system/build.prop so if you have problems with data (non-wifi-data) let me know and I'll make an update.
Post RLS2 updates
- 2010-06-14: Added /system/bin/getprop to stop Better Terminal from crashing.
- 2010-06-15: Replaced /system/lib/hw/lights.msm7k.so to fix charging LED
- 2010-06-15: Replaced bluetooth firmware to fix bluetooth headset support.
Changed in RLS2
- Default LCD density changed to 106
- Full market
- Odexing of /data/app/*.apk disabled by default to avoid problems when upgrading apps.
For advanced users
- To enable automatic odexing of Market apps edit /system/bin/userinit.sh. Upgraded apps will be odexed upon next restart. Uninstalled apps will have their .odex files deleted upon restart.
- To enable paid apps script (marketenable.sh) edit /system/bin/userinit.sh. Be aware that it may hide your APN settings but they will still work. If you only need paid apps temporarily, start a terminal and start marketenable.sh (as root) before starting the Market.
- To change the default Compcache settings edit /system/bin/compcache.sh. You will need to restart the phone for it to take effect as unloading the kernel mods does not work and it will therefor keep the old settings even if you turn compcache off and on again. Learn about Compcache here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Compcache
Recommended apps
From Market
- Dialer One - Spell name and it filters your phone book, loads quicker that contacts.apk IMHO. Uncheck "Show titlebar" for extra space and "Vibrate" for extra speed. Use "Wallpaper" theme for nice looks.
- Launcher Pro - really nice launcher, highly recommended. Do check it's preferences. Lot's of nice features to try.
- RogueTools - for LCD density tweaking (and overclocking but I found very little advantage of overclocking)
- Astro File Manager - to easily install apps from SD card.
- Opera Mini - a nice browser
- XDA forum app - a must have...
- GPS Test (Chartcross inc) - well... for testing the GPS.
Not found in Market (asfaik)
- Modified Google Maps by Brut.all - international navigation and some other stuff (that I haven't tried)
- Weather Widgets (yr.no) - nice flipclock and weather forecast widget/app
Attached files (place on SD card and install with Astro File Manager)
- Corporate Calender 1.0.6
- Gallery3D - Kind of cool but not sure how stable it is on our devices.
All your cash are belong to us...1Hello,
I had some corruption problems with scoot cyanogen, like corrupted data and data loss. This one have the same problem?1How to nand
You download the eclair build in the first topic.
If you use Touch Cruise Download the Pola.nbh then copy it to the same directory with the Custom Rom Update Utility.exe ( In remove other .nbh file if exist)
1/ Make andboot directory in root of your sd card
2/ Copy andinstall.tgz to andboot directory then put the card to your phone
3/Make your phone to bootloader ( turn off the phone --->hold camera button then press power button keep holding camera button)
3/Run CRUU then do as direct. (To flash the nbh file to your phone)
4/After complete the phone reboot. Hold the volume up button until show the ok button on the screen.
5/ Choose install sys on nand, data on nand --> install system and wait until it return this screen
6/Choose fix permission
7/ Choose bakup ( you can skip this step)
8/ Then choose quit and wait
Sorry For My English . I'm A Vietnamese.1
First, my i advise you to try a Froyo version (2.2) before judging android on kaiser ?
Now, on to your problems:
- I think you got the wrong panel type. Try the other ones. Also, with a-tools, use our Kaiser's native resolution.
- Reboot isn't working yet.
