Anyway, the JIT-enabled results are not very accurate. That's about 50% more performance compared to JIT-disabled... The real performance is measured with JIT disabled.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] heyodee:
however, games like raging thunder 2 & speedfx 3d are a bit smoother with JIT imo
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] v0id3r:
So JIT is so fast in "syntetic", specially configured tests? And in applications, developed to work with JIT?
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Yes, that's possible. But benchmarks are only... benchmarks. Real life behaviour matters.

@v0id3r

Yes. It might bring extra performance in all applications, but it's not a major improvement.

Once more: congrats for your good job. I tried sooo many roms, but I always go back to VanillaEclair.

In my opinion, this rom would be perfect without the led bug and the compatibility problem with the last radio.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I have no issues with that Setting. Using it to maximise battery life. :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Thanks!

The LED problem is not that bad as it is not affecting the device functionality. Anyway, it's still a bug, and will be fixed. As for the latest radio, I will see what I can do, didn't flash it yet.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] gabitech:
Are you getting the normal HSDPA setting with this radio? - if so, then we should all flash it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
Seems I'm not getting it after all. I was using WiFi all the time, but now that I disabled it to test, I'm only getting 2G.

EDIT: I had accidentally enabled GSM only, so that's why I only got 2G before. I'll test on the new radio again.

what is the best way to enable compcache?

I tried it manualy with insmod and rzscontrol.

How I want to make it autostart on boot
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
I don't think compcache is very good on Hero. I suggest you don't use it at all.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] heyodee:
create a file 98module

paste the content

#!/system/bin/sh

insmod /system/lib/modules/ramzswap.ko num_devices=1 disksize_kb=32768

rzscontrol /dev/block/ramzswap0 --init

swapon /dev/block/ramzswap0

echo "10" > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness

#Others

insmod /system/lib/modules/cifs.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/tun.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/loop.ko

insmod /system/lib/modules/cryptoloop.ko

push that file to /etc/init.d of your phone

and give the file a 755 permission -> chmod 755 /etc/init.d/98module
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] heyodee:
Huh, i think you are wrong :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
I just did a full wipe and re-installed 3.3 RC2, along with the new 2.1 Radio, and I can connect to the network fine, and get up to Edge speeds, but that is because of the area where I currently live doesn't have 3G.

I noticed that my APN started working right away, something that has never happened!

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] dpi295:
Yeah i know that, but its better to have HSDPA instead of UMTS.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
using the new radio, i changed to wcdma/gsm auto prl, and 3g works fine so far, gps connects fairly quickly (tested with 'gps test' app) after reboot, but google nav drops the gps signal every couple of minutes, just battery life to test overnight.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
No problems with the battery life, I can guarantee that.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] :
good to hear :) one random thing though. i cant seem to find the nav icon in the launcher (for google maps).

edit: just a cosmetic thing, i can live with the maps icon.. also big props for the new superuser apk. much easier to understand!

Battery life with 3G networks enable: after 3 hours in standby and 1 hour usage (mail, web, WLAN) I am down to 95% and the phone is very cooled down when I take it out of my pocket. I bet this is the best performance ever since I have my Hero :)

Speed is also flawless, never any hangs, wakeup from Standby also perfect. 3G/2G network switching works. I replaced the default camera app with "Camera.Magic" and pictures are great again. All in all and apart from those minor bugs this is the perfect Build in my mind. Thanks again for all your efforts.

BorderlineVX
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
It just seems that it is fixed, but it is not. It hasn't been confirmed yet.

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] masterpfa:
Ok early reports for VanillaEclair 3.3 RC2. Decided to go for a "Non" wipe install (only wiping Wipe Dalvik)

Once again the quick booting of this ROM after the initial BootScreen, is very impressive.

I was so tired today I fell asleep earlier with my phone still searching for a GPS signal but on awaking, found GPS locked (spare parts shows GPS active for 4h 5m on Co-Pilot and 27m on Google Maps Navigation) The up time on Co-pilot shows that the GPS did lock at sometime.

I have since manually dis-connected and reconnected with the GPS dropping within 5 mins on Google Navigation and no GPS signal with Co-Pilot. Not a proper test as I'm indoors today also not strictcly a scientific test either :D, but as I will need to drive to work all week, I can test throughly then.

P.S. Battery life seems awesome, along with GPS I also had bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Data all switched on for the last 4hrs, with the screen on as well for Co-Pilot and the phone active(not sleeping because of the active program!) my battery has only dropped from 85% to 43% (I always found on all ROMS 2hrs of GPS/Co-Pilot use would have drained my battery almost completely) :D :D :D
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
Nice things about the battery life. To be honest I was expecting that, because I've been doing all this kernel tweak to make the system perfectly balanced between stability and battery consumption.

Thanks for your reports.

My last test for today was BT. I simply describe what I observed.

1. BT media audio profile seems gone. In RC1 I could still play music through my PC (using BT), with RC2 there is no way to connect by this profile.

2. BT phone connects to my PC as well as to my older BT headset just fine but there is no audio transmission whatsoever.

Seems like the media profile is gone; only the phone headset profile is left but that one won't transmit audio in a recognizable format.

Nice evening,

[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] yeah20002:
auto brightness(as in other AOSP ROMs) -> I will fix it soon

HOPE FOR MORE
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] lukesky:
okie my short review. Flashed RC2 with the less 'extreme' cpu clocks and works fine, didn't hang at boot screen.

But just to be safe, once the phone booted up I immediately installed SetCPU with a list of custom frequencies that I got from another ROM to set the Screen Off speed to 249Mhz and OC to 652Mhz. Everything works as expected. :p

Speed as usual is faster than my prev ROM which was aHero.

Batt life is excellent. I left it overnight at 50% and the next morning it was 47%. So 3% over 6 hrs is very good. Of course I enabled all the usual battery saving tricks like 2G only, killed all the apps that I wasn't using, turned auto orientation, location, wifi, mobile data and gps off etc.

With regards to the more 'exotic' features like BFS, I'm not completely sure it's better for the Hero. Those other ROMs I tried with BFS all had weird behaviour with certain apps. I'm not sure it's the ROM that's screwing things up or BFS itself.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] noobhero:
battery life is awesomeness.

4% in 10 hours +-

lock screen was corrupted when i checked on the phone

had to sleep and wake it again b4 it goes to 1/2 normal.

(right slider still gone (silent slider))

be flashing the new radio to check if gsm auto prl and "H" logo works fine.

edit: after lastest radio flashed. GSM auto prl is still not working for my data. have to stick with WCDMA preferred.

also, logo on statsbar only alternates btwn G and 3G nothing more.

anyone else using apndroid? fresking had this problem all the time. data always cant get connected to the network when ever apnrdoid is activated from a deactivate state.

edit 2: line seems to keep dropping gonna go back to the older radio

Where you trying to do a Nand + Ext or Nand only and what level was your battery, sometimes I notice if the battery level is low, around the 20% mark, Nand back up, can at times, fail. Earlier today I had to choose Nand only backup.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:
@noobhero

Those are HSDPA speeds, as I said, it is in HSDPA but the indicator does not show it. You could be either on 3.6 or 7.2 mbps, ~2-3mbps is the maximum speed the phone itself can handle. I've got 54mbps wireless indoor and using the PC I can download with 6MB/s(real speed), but I can't go past 2.8mbps on the phone.

@masterpfa

When the battery reaches lower levels(<30%), you can't do backups from the recovery image directly.

That's funny, those are just LEDs.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] noobhero:
ok understood.

why does it always show Network Type as UMTS (bah! whatever so long its working)

and could you help me check and see if ur data connects under GSM auto prl setting?

thanks a bunch!

I'm using APNDroid. I also had this problem with RC2. Somehow APNDroid never managed to turn off mobile data even though the APN name was already changed. So I did a full delete of all the APNs in the phone and I restored an APN backup and everything works fine and dandy now.

Using the 576/245 RC2 rom, the faster one wouldn't boot. Could not install without an ext partition, but swap wasn't needed.

Only noticed two issues so far:

A few times it has taken me a few tries to get the screen to wake up from sleep.

While charging the led was green even though I started at 20%.

Btw, why adjust the internal memory management? Works great as-is for me. I hover around 11 mb free and all activies launch very quickly. Free memory is wasted memory. :)

It's very curious why you can't wake up at 245MHz, since it's the same frequency used in the official HTC ROM. Anyway, I will think about that task killer tweaking in the kernel, if you think using your own app is better.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] RaduG:

I didn't get very much from your post, but this should be better on battery life. I've lost 10% in 19h.

Can't remember that I had any issues with the phone waking up with the official rom. Weird. Just got some graphical corruption as well and that I'm certain that I didn't see with the official rom.

Between 245760 and 48000 are there any frequencies I can use? Using auto-detect in overclock widget gives me that huge gap.
