Scoot CyanogenMod 6.1.2 RLS6

This is a build i have compiled from the official CyanogenMod source files and adapted for Kaiser/Vogue. Feel free to give it a go at your own risk!

All the usual things are working.

**THIS BUILD WORKS BEST WITH RECENT 2.6.32 KERNELS**

The build includes all the latest modules for the latest 2.6.32 kernels. If you wish to use an older kernel remember to apply the appropriate module update that goes with it.

I have attached a kernel to this post which I personally use if you get stuck. Don't forget to modify it with ATools with your preferred settings.

All of this is thanks to the guys working on the CyanogenMod roms and of course, none of this would work without all the hard work on the kernel so big thanks to dzo, l1q1d etc...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

RLS4c :
Re-added YouTube app (Working a little better)
Removed HTC keyboard (available as an update)
Fixed Market
Fixed Android Keyboard text prediction
Updated Google Apps
Removed & added some sounds
Added CyanogenMod TS Calibration App
Added DSP Manager
Merged latest changes from CyanogenMod repo

RLS 5a:
Updated ADW Launcher 1.3.3
Messaging/Phone sliders on lockscreen (Enabled in 'Cyanogen Settings-Input Settings')
Dismiss notifications by swiping
Updated Terminal Emulator app
Updated Google Apps
Removed 'Reboot' option (It doesn't work on our phones)
Configured to work with the latest 2.6.32 Kernels
Many Modifications and fixes
Merged latest changes from CyanogenMod repo
Fixed Lock Screen Gestures
Fixed some typos in a couple of the apps
Cleaned up some files

RLS5.5 :
No major changes, mainly changes in the build environment and behind the scenes
Speed improvements
Rotary lockscreen

RLS6 :
Updated to the latest 6.1.2 stable source
(Not much has changed CyanogenMod wise, changes are mainly in the AOSP Froyo source)
Updated to the latest zram (Compcache) module (enabled by default)
Updated to the latest Google Apps (Most are now in a separate update file below)
Gmail, market and quicksearch is still included as well as all the necessary frameworks
This is a complete rebuild from scratch because I lost the old stuff so some things may be different, let me know if you find anything weird :)
I've done all I can to optimise this build and get the size down

is your kernel overclocked because ADW keeps reloading on me on my vogue, i tried everything i could to get it to work too, (eg using the sysinit from the original port, along with the original launcher.apk from that build, also having it zip align on first boot the problem persists

I haven't had that issue yet, my Kaiser kernel is overclocked to 500MHz. Admittedly i do set ADW to a single screen and only have a few widgets loaded so it's not too memory hungry. Do you mean restarting as in being closed to save memory or it's crashing? There are a couple of options you can try to keep it in memory, one in ADW's settings (System Preferences/System Persistent) or in Cyanogenmod Settings there is an option to lock the homescreen in memory somewhere.

basically the screen loads, then it blanks out and reloads the home screen again, i cant even get into the settings to change the amount of screens or the system persistent, i feel your over clock might have something to do with it

Ok, i'll look into it, worked fine first time on my kaiser but i did modify the androidinstall.tar before installing. It could also be a widget that loads by default which is the issue so i'll try removing them.

@thoughtlesskyle: that's due to the external-skia!! libskia.so is crashing (same for me when compiling from cm-source). I had to take out BLIT optimizations from skia to get it half working (browser still crashes). Though I am talking for my port on HTC Diamond & Co.!!!

I know there are issues with skia, but what is different between the vogue and kaiser hardware which means it doesn't crash on the Kaiser. I did make some modifications to skia so it would compile for our processors.

I don't even have a clue! It must be something kernel-related cause I tried so many things on my HTC Diamond and couldn't bug that out...

Strange stuff!! I'll have a look into it, maybe try and replicate the issue on my device. Out of interest, which kernel are you running thoughtlesskyle???

im still running the old 2.6.25 kernel from 26-07-2010

also this isnt my daily phone so it isn't a big issue, and also i have my own build i just like checking out what everyone else is doing too

That's good, i appreciate your help :) I would say that the kernel is probably the problem, cyanogenmod kernels for many phones are now up to 2.6.35. I am using a recently compiled 2.6.32 kernel and things seem ok. Keep up the good work with you build, i like it a lot.

much appreciated! :) thx

could you plz link the needed ril for .25-kernel to complete your thread, as on polaris cam isnt working with .32-kernel and most of us are kind of forced to use older kernel, when using cam now and then. ;)

thx again!

I'm going to test the build with a 2.6.25 kernel tomorrow as i think there may be compatability issues with older kernels and the CyanogenMod builds which will make it unusable on anything other then the latest 2,6,32 kernel. However, if these can be resolved i will post an update with the necessary files to run an older kernel.

RLS 1

I have tidied a few things up with the build and uploaded a new release.

I have tested with an old 2.6.25 kernel and it isn't pretty, so it's 2.6.32 or nothing with this one at the minute i'm afraid.

Thanks for your build, I'm using right now with the 10/19/2010 l1qu1d kernel, and I think it's quite good. Would love to see what comes next with this port.

Thanks again!!

Glad you like it, i'm still tweaking stuff. I've disabled JIT by default and got compcache to work when altered in cyanogenmod settings. Disabling JIT and restarting the phone improved performance a lot. I've also changed some low memory parameters and i have had no home screen reloads and it's pretty snappy. I've also fixed the music app for the next release.Still working on bits and pieces so i'll upload a new release soon with the fixes/updates.

How to configure?

Hi Scooter,

Good and fast build, I use it through HaRET.

How can I configure the "LAB" & "RAB" as other builds. In mine is just display without any fiunction assigned to them? please in NOOB steps. I'm new here.

also, how can add a new kernel to my andboot folder? when I overwrite the original one with newer one, it hangs! is there any configs/files need to be changed?

thanks for help.

    2.6.32 Kernel built from the latest source

    why this build doesnt work with 2.6.25 kernel?
    2.6.25 works well with yaffs.

    I could probably get this build running on .25 but it would mean taking backwards steps in the functionality of the rom, not to mention a lot of time which i don't have. I think my time would be better spent fixing the yaffs issue in the .32 kernel which is my intention, rather then taking out new features so it works with outdated kernels.
