oh i forgot to tell... in my eclair v0.1(lol) :D

you can put your custom bootanimation here /sdcard/backups/custom_bootanimation.zip

before flashing :P

edit:

to get more battery power :P

change radio.boot.autoattach=false in boot.img

ill have this change in next version :D

for some reason this was set to true... and causing the system to check for network every sec after turning of the screen :P

edit2:

just learned if you flash img files with RKAndroidTool v1.23.... you cant use RKCooking to get the img files back from the device... im misssing lots of codes cuz of this :( not even sure how much :(

edit3:

i figured out a progress bar work around (looks goood) :P
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
It works so far with some issues. Google docs crashes after booting everytime, but it seems to work after that. I took it out from the /app folder. Market does not work - server failure everytime after some booting. I see no way to fix that.

Your eclair does not work with the present adobe reader, because it requires minimum froyo. Our froyo can't handle the reader too.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
yea i see that reader i have is 10.0.0...

its weird google docs does not crashes for me... do you get wait and forceclose? or just forceclose?

Market doesnt worrrk ? :( ... i guess i haven't tested that enough...

ill post another version soon with some cleanup and more apps lol make it really almost bloated :D and with progress bar
[Miscellaneous Android Development] MajstorSpeedy:
Starting over

I was young and ignorant, when ppl said "Don't do it, you'll get a brick in your lap!" I just ignored it and (of course) made myself a beautifull brick for decoration (to be honest, I did it few times too much).

Now I'm older and, nonetheless, wiser but still confident that I can produce a High-Quality Brick (HQB)... :D

Fun aside, tonight I'm booting up my dev machine after long sleep and I'll see what you guys did with CRAMFS-based android for our beloved tabs...

I make no promise but I'll at least try to make a GB which is stable and fast just as Froyo. After that maybe improve batt usage. I'm starting from scratch so just keep your pants on!

C ya all!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Is it okay, when I wait for your next version before I put it in the collectiion. It is eclair time. The concept app installation from sdcard is a fine feature - for froyo too. :-)

Google docs crashes with forced close and the wait option. I think was not correct installed in the first boot.

Next week are the cupcake days:D:D:D:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] surfer63:
You can always copy your bootanimation.zip to /data/local. Then that one is picked upon startup: default android behavior.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Okay Majstor, show us how to built a gingerbread.

Hey DaremoS come over here, someone is kicking at your front door.:cool:

Maybe you leave the HQB-lines out of your rom and be careful with the kernel, the straight way to bricking your device. There are no more new odys genesis to buy , so I want to keep mine.:o
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
yea the scripts copy the bootanimation from sd card to data local...

Sent from doubleshot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
we get the wait option because we dont have enough processing speed at the them it google docs starts up... the system thinks that app is frozen... but when u give it more time by hitting wait... it all works fine... atleast that what i think :p

update

Works fine for me but I don't touch anything until it reboots, then wait another ten minutes. Poor tablet is drowning in mods, give it some time to catch it's breath. :D

Change of topic, Darwin was crashing on me because of dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m value, changed it to 48 yesterday and no crash since then. Well, except for Adobe Reader, made it past 90 pages before getting out of memory error. "EBookDroid is an open source (GPL'ed) document viewer for Android based on the VuDroid code base." Quote from Google Play, looks better than Adobe Reader plus it's open source. :) Link> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.ebookdroid

JD in my eclair... you said you only hear music in youtube...

when you play something try rotating the tablet to refresh the video... :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Philiman you are the funny eclair guy, ;)I said the youtube app plays only music, but the youtube player app works fine for me.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
umm im trying to say that i see video in both apps
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
No chance for me and it was very slow. Youtube is not really important in our weak tablets.

Anyway I took your eclare in the room collection. Look for it, if you want something to change, let me know. This time the "impy pinkies" are for your personal request, when they want to talk about all crashing roms.:D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Thanks stevemp, this reader is really good. No need for adobe reader anymore, I think. I will check the dalvik line. This means that the dalvik cache would be increased?

When this is the solution for the app closings without message, then darwin froyo is now nearly perfect or what?

Right now I'm in hvdwolfs new froyo, your init.sh works with darwin kernel. I have only a bad calibration on screen keyboard in landscape, in portrait it works fine. How can I find better values for the echo line in landscape? I need an overview of those screen calibration values, so I can estimate better values.

Btw the new hvdwolf rom is very fast and stable like the darwin froyo, but there are some things to discover.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:

Calibrate your tablet with TSCalibration, pull TouchCheck.xml, open with xml editor to get numbers and make changes.

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Okay I try it. You mean I should install tscalibration, calibrate and then I pull the the values with adb from the touchcheck.xml?

Which xml editor do you use?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:

Yes, calibrate like normal then pull touchcheck.xml to get values.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] ThauExodus:
Hi, how do you modify the boot.img?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
@Thau exodus

There are some different ways to edit the boot.img. At first you can't edit it in the tablet.

I would unpack the rom with apfttool under windows. Then you got system, boot etc.,

open boot.img with newtuxflashtools.Finally you can edit the boot.img. Some files you have to copy out of the newtux window for editing.

In post #3 in this thread you find more details for cooking a rk2818 rom.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ThauExodus:
Thanks, but whenever I try to modify the boot.img with newtuxflashtools, the tablet won't boot.. But with system.img its working fine...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Okay, the reason for that behavior is, don't forget to sign the boot.img with rkcrc.exe after editing.

I save my boot.img under bootcrc.img with newtux, then I use rkcrc with the following syntax:

rkcrc.exe bootcrc.img boot.img

After that, you can repack with apfttool and the rom will boot.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DaremoS:
Great JackDillonFense. The things is that boot.img requires CRC unlike system.img, which not.

:D God!!! I know lots of this ****!!!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Ah DaremoSunshine, the wise man from south america is back again. I know that, but I do it for both files, because when you have both files or more open for editing, it is easy to forget signing.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
RKCooking

Use RKCooking and you only need to know four things, enter, 1, 2, 3, 4! :D

Put your rom to be modified in rombase, start RKCooking with RKCooking.bat, hit enter to get past splash screen, 1 to choose the rom in rombase to modify, 2 to open newtuxflashtools to modify boot.img, recovery.img, system.img, 3 to add crc to img, 4 to pack img in new rom. I did not know commands either. :o:D

flashed the froyo prestigio 5_1, when I try turning it on it just freezes on me when on the android screen. So I reset it, and can't get it into the RKAndroid mode, it will just start booting up and freeze again. Helpppp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
unplug your device from the pc...

trun it off

after screen goes black... wait 10 sec

now while holdong down the "down key"... plug in the usb :D

done ;)

edit:

oh u cant turn of with the power key i guess

plugin the usb in

hit the pin hole 3+ times

after screen goes black... wait .5 sec then hold the down button

this should work for you :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dprofosho:
:D thanks! couldn't figure that bit out
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
i just learned that in details today lol couple hours before your post lol...

i knew about it but never knew what the number really meant... :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Have you flashed the rom again? Does the rom work for you now? If not,

maybe you have to erase IDB with the RKandroidtool before.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dprofosho:
I just ended up flashing a different froyo, not sure what was up with that other one.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] DaremoS:
Thanks for the instructive talk about statements that we see in init.rc (AKA init.rk28board.rc or both... whateva :D ) but we don't touch! due to our ignorance :o

When we will see another rom made by you with all the topics we have read from you and heart, like it's install, V6 SuperCharger and system rw (aufs.ko)?

I want to add this to GB.2.3.1 (ro.build.version.sdk=9) the missing link between Froyo (ro.build.version.sdk=8) and GB.2.3.4 and above (ro.build.version.sdk=10) :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] dprofosho:

and modify with 7zip as you like with other pictures.

I'm fighting with the initlogo.rle. Last time I did it under windows and it worked. Now I got an overlay picture after building the rle file in Ubuntu. Something is wrong with my start png or jpeg, initlogo.rle size is with 1.2MB is to much.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zeppelinrox:
You know that the SuperCharger tweaks ALL those parameters, right?

I rearranged stuff in order to create the different launcher strengths.

HOME_APP_ADJ=1 in the stock configuration above is the "lock home in memory" setting on many roms - which is alot weaker than all 3 launchers in SuperCharger.

HOME_APP_ADJ=1 when SuperCharged is Die-Hard and is ALOT stronger than "lock home in memory".

It's all about how important one group is relative to another group.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
I don't think it's working on my tablet then, only changes are in build.prop.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] ThauExodus:
Hi,

does somebody know why the rk2818 tablets are using mdpi images, but the tablets itself have a hdpi resolution...

And another thing, does anyone have a eclair bootanimation binary (/system/bin/bootanimation) which support custom boot animations? My binary uses only the default android animation and ignores the custom ones /system/media/bootanimation.zip
[Miscellaneous Android Development] surfer63:
Eclair certainly supports it: copy your bootanimation to /data/local. You can refresh/change it without having to flash your tablet.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
New Rom

Next3 kernel, Darwin build.prop, PMP3084BA system.

System is r/w by using aufs.ko module.

Package Manager is used to install extra apps.

Bloat was removed from PMP3084BA system and extra apps added.

EBookDroid, FBReader, Jukefox, Miui File Explorer, Mobo Player, MyBackup Root, Quick Shutdown, QuickPic, and Script Manager.

It has Google Play version 3.5.15 (replaces market). It has everything updated to latest version as of 3/23/2012. In the zip file are backups of installed apps plus more is case you don't like the ones installed in the rom. Also in the google folder is the vending.apk for old market. Copy folders GOLauncherEX and GoStore to your sdcard to use my settings. On home screen select menu, preferences, backup and restore, restore settings to use my launcher settings. In the launcher folder are different launchers to use if you don't like GOLauncherEX.

New version of Miui file explorer is delayed, so I am releasing my rom today.

Select sdcard first, menu, settings, then check the "Root Explorer" Box to gain root access in Miui File Explorer.

Questions, feel free to ask. :)

So much extras. Is it the final froyo solution?

My froyo is still under construction; I have problems to built my initlogo.rle.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
initlogo.rle

I made one, decided not to use it, waste of cpu. It takes a long time to boot, plus apps are still installing after home screen comes up. :eek: SuperCharger is still not liking Franky so did tweaks the old fashioned way by editing build.prop and init.rk28board.rc. :p I have to have more bloat than heart_crafter so Franky can be number 1. :D

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
I see that coming - your fashion challange about the best extra package as apk-booster from sdcard. Your are making your booting time slower with that feature and the installation is tricky. :mad:

I will soon release Darwin froyo - nerd edtion 2.0 - without much extras, but with google market 2.36 black edition, where you can find all the stuff you like to add.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] heart_crafter:
u go ta see my next release :D

it installs apps after home screen shows up :P with a PROGRESS bar ;)

n i do have lots of apps in this release :D
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
I install apps from the system, boot time is about the same but apps are still installing after home screen comes up. The google market 2.36 quit showing apps for me, that's the reason for new market. The new google play shows thousands of apps vs few in old market. I could not find them even when searching. :rolleyes: Maybe you have different experience, I hope so. :) What is apk-booster from sdcard? :confused:

You are the WINNER!!!

My rom is only 6 megabytes larger than original Next3 rom.:p

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zeppelinrox:
The /parameters/adj and /minfree are in 99SuperCharger which runs on boot.

All roms have /init.rc

If the script finds an init.xxx.rc file like yours in a subfolder, it gets all the changes in one place as well.

rc files in the root get renewed on each boot tho (extracted from boot.img - the files in boot.img can be changed tho but not via script).
[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
Rockchips are different, they have init.rk28board.rc instead of init.rc in boot.img. The kernel is in kernel.img. The boot.img can be opened and edited in Linux by using cramfsck -x boot boot.img or in windows by using NewTuxFlashTools. I don't know about other types of tablets, this is the only one that I have modded.

stevemp
[Miscellaneous Android Development] zeppelinrox:
erm... init.rk28board.rc=init.XXX.rc

If it was in a /system subfolder, it would get moddified.

Actually, if you only have it in the root ie. the full path is /init.rk28board.rc, you can copy it to /system so you have a /system/init.rk28board.rc

Run the script and see all the changes.

Then if you wanted you can put that modified /system/init.rk28board.rc into the boot.img

edit: oh yeah... so you DON'T have an /init.rc file? That's weird indeed.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] JDfense:
Hey Surferwolf,

[Miscellaneous Android Development] stevemp:
Still under construction. :) My rom is not like heart_crafters. The apks are in the /system/appdata/apkinstall/ folder. You can change script to delete them after being installed if you want to. Market is acting strange for me, only six apps show in Eclair, not very many in Froyo either except when I use new market, then it says over 4000. The new play market is much faster, so I don't care really. :D

Some new devices and new firmware in cell phone

I've been all the time a bit suspicious when my dear friend John DeLorean Fense claims enthusiastically that Froyo is the fastest firmware.

I've no right or reason to doubt of him (and many others) :)

I just want to share my experience moving from Froyo.2.2.3 to GB.2.3.7 in my cell phone. :D

If you read in my signature you'll notice some changes:

- new tablet (I'll talk later of this as I'm testing it), and...

- new firmware in my lovely Huawei cell phone (the small wonder) now driven by CyanogenMod 7.2 or GB.2.3.7

Believe me... the new firmware have made a completely new machine of this small ****, due to its speed. Now my favourite game, those damn Angry Birds, now fly like eagles. :o:o:o:o:o

Geeesss!!! how can anybody be so silly to waste his time throwing birds like an idiot :p:p:p:p

Seriously... I've been using this amazing little cell for a year now, and now its a new experience to have its fast response.

All thanks to the change from Froyo to Gingerbread (all the apps remains the same in both versions)

Horus bless ya'
