[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Android Development] polyrhythmic:
@bigboijr: what device/radio/rom are you using? Sounds like you need to reinstall, and let the phone settle for several minutes before attempting setup.

@havulm: I updated OptionalApps.zip also with a new version of JBed, I should have made that clear. You can also get the .apk from /data/app in this zip: http://ponack.net/poly/2.1b/OE-1.1.5-JBed.zip

@anubius: sounds like an issue that's not build-related. If you know how to get a logcat error I might be able to see what's wrong with your connection. 3G or WiFi?

@jcannon: What radio are you using? Have you checked your APN settings?

@anubius @jcannon are you using the latest kernel? That fixed it for arbailey3.

@lggyxx: flashing radio doesn't affect data

spiritssight: first boot takes several minutes, this is normal. Once it's booted, it starts searching your SD for media, this can cause it to be sluggish. It sounds like you're not having any problems, you just need to be a bit more patient ;)

@Adler87: What radio are you using? Haret or NAND install? Are you using 20-Feb Kernel?

@Borkata81: Which LiveWallpapers are you using? I'd like to include them soon now that this is stable enough. I plan to port OE 1.2.2, 1.2.1 has too many bugs reported. Supposedly 1.2.2 will be released tonite, but I'll wait and let the G1 users find the bugs first ;)

@moitoius: Which apps crash? Have you tried changing your panel-type?

@CYDVicious: OpenGL means you can play games, speeds up the system in places, etc. Google Earth crashes for all OpenEclair 1.1.5 AFAIK, I don't use OpenGL-specific apps much but it makes a faster system overall.

@fatman06: sorry, video playback is not working right in 2.1 builds, it's a driver issue, hope to be fixed soon. I'll add that to the OP.

@a.s.j: partitioning your whole card in Android is difficult because no matter what your setup, Android uses the SD card. The newest kernels allow you to unmount your SD while Android is running but you may have unexpected results. There's probably a Android parted out there that will work, I've never personally tried partitioning from within Android.

@thepenk: Without a SIM, no way to solve it for now without editing .xmls in the lock .apk, sorry.

@Maranevim: Search for my WiFi patch in this thread, it will work with this build.

@Hyperfly @Cruisemod, @ufo2121, sorry polaris is not working well, I'll take another look at the issue and ask the kernel devs.

@garringm: What compcache/userinit settings work better for you? I've tried to find what works best for me, but everyone has different app use.

@hhsfool, as garringm says, it's related to the compcache settings and also to the JIT Dalvik VM. The JIT decides what's 'hot' code and optimizes that for speed. The compcache also tries to guess what you're using most often and keeps that most available in memory. Copy /system/etc/userinit.conf to /sdcard/andboot/ and tweak the settings. If you turn it off, everything will load marginally faster but only a couple apps will stay in memory. The waits you get are when a memory-intensive app is being swapped in/out of memory.

I have compcache setup with 32MB of virtual swap ('cc_disksize'), which when compressed will take up no more than 16MB of your memory. The swappiness is set to 20, the higher the # the more likely it is to swap. This works perfectly for me since I use mainly only 4 or 5 apps. But since everyone is different that's why I setup this build so you can tweak compcache for yourself.

PHEW I am writing a book here :D HTH everyone!!
