Hello everybody, -original post on modaco-

Koudelka worked hard to get an initial tree working for AOSP (based on Codeaurora's Froyo tree for qsd8250, big thanks to phh for suggesting), credits and kudos to him! I've been conversing with him in the IRC chatroom for a bit and have agreed to release this ROM, to maintain it, and to adapt the Liquid vendor/device tree to CyanogenMod, aiming for full hardware compatibility with Froyo and future Android versions. I am constantly updating the tree, and will provide nightly builds as soon as possible, the current builds being fully functional (WiFi, 3D, GPS, radio, camera -thanks to phh's RE of the libcamera-, camcorder -adaptation of Acer's libcamera-, geolocation, battery and missed call LED -thanks to cgatay for CM6 compatible patch-, haptic feedback, USB mount, accelerometer, and soon to be Proximity sensor)

Thanks to phhusson's hard and diligent work we also have a full functional Froyo kernel! (phhusson is a miracle worker, work on hardware is thanks to him!)

This is not AOSP Froyo, FRF91, nor AOSP Eclair, this is CyanogenMod 6.X.X compiled for the Liquid and LiquidE!

So here it is, CyanogenMod 6.X.X with the regular Xian ROM addons and mods, for you to install! It's is a Froyo based build, includes JIT, and supports Adobe's Flash Player 10.1 (installable from the Market).

Again, credits to koudelka for the base and phhusson for the Froyo kernel! And credits to Cyanogen for the Android source and improvements! -> official CyanogenMod changelog

These ROMs WIPE DATA as to prevent incompatabilites between revisions, so please Nandroid and backup your personal DATA with Titanium Backup before upgrading, or flashing the ROM.

Suggestions are welcome to improve the usability of this ROM! Please feedback! And please also say thank you to phhusson and koudelka! We'd appreciate a drink ;) -> donate link.

Enjoy

Hello everybody,

Thanks to phhusson's hard and diligent work we not only have a working Froyo compatible kernel but also a working Liquid vendor tree made by koudelka (based on Codeaurora's Froyo tree for qsd8250, big thanks to phh for suggesting). As you all know he compiled AOSP for the liquid, and released on the forums as a test ROM. The ROM I'm releasing today is designed for everyday use, it has all hardware working, WiFi, GPS, Sensors, 3D, 3G, with the exception of camera, which is currently a work in progress (phhusson is a miracle worker, all work on hardware is thanks to him!).

[u]But[/u], this is not AOSP Froyo, FRF91, nor AOSP Eclair, this is CyanogenMod 6.0.0 compiled for the Liquid and LiquidE!

Koudelka has been working hard to get this working, credits and kudos to him! I've been conversing with him in IRC for a bit and have agreed to release this ROM, which he built and I cleaned up and tweaked for the average joe.

So here it is, CyanogenMod 6 with the regular Xian ROM addons and mods, for you to install! It's is a Froyo based build, includes JIT, and supports Adobe's Flash Player 10.1 (installable from the Market).

Again, credits to koudelka for the base and phhusson for the Froyo kernel! And credits to Cyanogen for the Android source and improvements! -> [url="http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_vendor_cyanogen/blob/froyo/CHANGELOG.mkdn"]official CyanogenMod changelog [/url]

[u]These ROMs do not automatically WIPE apps but they [b]do WIPE your PERSONAL DATA[/b]. If you encounter problems please wipe data/cache and reflash the ROM. [b]Nandroid backup to be sure![/b][/u]

Suggestions are welcome to improve the usability of this ROM! Please feedback! And please say thank you to phhusson and koudelka! Who both deserve some beer.;)

Enjoy

This looks very nice but when I flash it through Malez Recovery I get stuck in a boot loop. I tried flashing both alternatives afterwards. Nothing helps.
I have an Acer liquid E with the 2.2 Froyo leaked .bin (0.007.00).
Any ideas?

screen stuttering

hey, been using the build for the day and every few minutes the top of the screen acts as though its being tapped on and the notification bar shoots down/things on screen get selected randomly. havent been able to figure out how to reproduce.

Try setting the sensitivity to a default 70/70.
That is happening to my LCR-installed Liquid E too with the highest sensitivity.
Just get it to 70/70
