I added the GSM fix files manually into the ROM zip then flashed with a full wipe.After the first boot i booted back into recovery and flashed the JVT modem and rebooted...that's all.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alokcool13:
Steps to make gsm work

Well Guys please follow these steps :

Boot into recovery

Flash the V4.5 version from here

Flash this : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28777468&postcount=1898

Flash the Fix for RIL Link : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=28778827&postcount=1902

And BOOT!

After this calls and sms should work

Note : I did not make the ROM or the FIX

Well kl would be 4.2 and 4.3 is lolipop and then android 5 is MnM :D thats my assumption

I got a Q for u is android 4 supports only 2 core or multiple in general?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dave71670:
I can not get a modem flashed with cwm. The modem never changes. Maybe something in my updater script. Or it could be the kernel. What is the kernel included in .45? I change mine out to port.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] alokcool13:
was anybody able to get data work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] clay21:
There's no need for that....Just follow the flashing instructions in the op for the rom....reboot...

then flash the gsm fix...reboot....

then flash the modem....reboot...DONE.

Kernel is Devil3_0.99_wifi1_i9000_CFS_BLN_VC......maybe your modem zip is bad.Try downloading a fresh one and flash it with a cache and dalvik wipe.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dave71670:
JVT does fix sms/calls but data is still in the works. Stick with .99 kernel as .98 has no wifi. All working well so far on captivate. More testing and mods to be made tho.

Could you give me the link to .99 kernel please
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Anakin1138:
ICS is coded to support quad core out of the box, but there aren't many apps designed to really use the power, I think the majority only use 2 cores.

Now the Tegra Chipset is making its way into the newer devices like the nexus, it falls to the app designers to code things that take advantage of those extra cycles.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] dave71670:
JVT lost signal with me as well as KP1. Using KG3 now and so far so good.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] upichie:
Probably JVU. Although for most users here it shouldn't matter, as we'll all just flash our local modems when we install the ROM. But I find JVU to be the best all around modem. It seems to work well everywhere.

KG3 is a Canadian modem. Although that's what I will flash when I install this ROM, it doesn't make sense to use that as the default modem. Use JVU. I've never heard of it not working for any one location. KG3, on the other hand, will give people troubles—even if it's the best option for Canadians.

You want the base modem to work for everyone, not be the best for a small group of people. JVU for sure.

to be honest i will now wait for a better build as this one lags quite often.
[Huawei MediaPad, T-Mobile SpringBoard] taronas:
Got the youtube app update installed on my MediaPad.

According to the news it should have an option to preload videos for watching later wich would be awesome.

Android 3.2+ devices: v.4.0

* New UI: Guide on the left side of the screen with instant access to channels

* Preload videos while on WiFi and charging for smooth playback on the go

On a Galaxy Nexus I have seen this option in the settings. But on the MediaPad, although YT is definitely version 4.0.8E, there is no preload setting!

Did anybody get this working? I tried the update from the market and even an apk found at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1529715 :(

Thanks for the find, OP! The tegra 2 version works for me too.

I tried compiling VLC from source a while back but it never worked for me. For those who don't know, VLC is an open source media player; I first became a fan for my various Debian systems because it included the libraries for playing most DVDs.

this app is famous for playing any kind of video and audio file. its a great player allowing you to have the best control over the aspect ratios,subtitles etc.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] phishpheeder:
The way I stream from my home server is to use bubbleUPnP. Just open the app up and find your media server. Then when you select the movie, you have to pick an external player to actually play the movie. I have been using mx player, but VLC should work too.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] consegregate:
I am not sure as to whether this should go to the general, or the development thread. But I think developers as well as other users gotta know if there's something that can improve rom performance.

So, I've noticed apart from 16 bit transparency, there's another tweak in the later cm7.2 roms of

debug.sf.hw=1

debug.composition.type=gpu

These lines forces GPU to render graphics. In the early gingerbread leak roms debug.sf.hw=1 is the source of a pain for all users, slowing ALL popup animations and lagging them badly, and also rendering the screenoff animation inexistent. The solution was to comment out the line itself.

Later these lines became a standard in Cm7.2 roms. I commented them out anyways, bringing a very slight improvement to performance.

But now, I believe there is a better tweak. Debug.composition.type has 2 settings of gpu or cpu. Out of curiosity I wrote 2 lines into build.prop, in an attempt to make BOTH CPU and GPU to work the graphics.

After rebooting I found that there WAS indeed an improvement in touch response time, and graphics seems to be smoother.

A long time spent in xda made me think about the placebo effect. But I tested this on many occasions with many roms and found, to my pleasure that there is indeed a difference. Believe me, I spent time STARING at some touch events and I do feel a difference.

So here I recommend you all to do the same.

Flash the updated adreno libraries, which adds the above 2 lines into build.prop. Following this, add a next line of debug.composition.type=cpu following the gpu line. Fairly easy to do with a root browser; I use root explorer.

I hope this thread doesn't get moved until this becomes a standard! I post in no attempt to hoard thanks, or donations, I just want everyone else following xda with a **** phone like the Ace to make their lives a little better. Well, you all are here, undeniably, because you are OCD about your phone speed.

Thanks for reading and have a nice day!
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Tovagulet:
:o

I hope this help developers to boost performance on their ROMs.

If this works, I'd prob start using CM7.2

Open root explorer

Go in system

Build.prop tweaks are found everywhere on the internet, it's one of the most basic modding for android root users.

Sorry I assumed everyone is familiar with build.prop and root explorer. Anyway from what I gather there's already enough information in this thread. I aim to have developers set it default, but since it's in general now it doesn't matter, anyone can make these small tweaks easily.

Personally, build.prop tweaks and zipalign with CM7 would more or less smoothen things out. Stock runs it well too.

In case anyone is still lost, the main idea is to try to make both processing units to render the graphics. Although it seems like the line of 2 settings seems conflicting I guess logically both CPU and GPU should be able to run alongside, so I tried it anyway and it does work well.

Gist:

Flash adreno libraries. These help.

Go to root explorer, /system/build.prop, open in text editor. Add the line debug.composition.type=cpu below the gpu line. That's all.

For stock users I tried to make 16-bit transparency and disable scrolling cache work by using

persist.sys.use_16bpp_alpha=1

persist.sys.scrollingcache=2

That's all. Other equally simple tweaks are all over xda and google.

I just performed these changes in build.prop of stock DDKQ8 rom.

I did following steps.

Rooted phone using upd_1.zip.

Installed root explorer and modified build.prop

rebooted the phone.

Unrooted the phone using unroot.zip

Phone menu and screen is much responsive and much better than before.

Also, game play is much smoother. I must say, awesome tip. Thanks a lot for sharing.

Earlier battery used to last for more than 24 hours with normal usage and edge on all time. Will update on battery performance in 2-3 days.

However, i have lost my default bootanimation. At the time of booting, only sound comes and plain white screen is displayed instead of stock samsung boot animation.

Any advice will be highly appreciated.
