v0.9 and other messages

V0.9 IS RELEASED!​

This is a big release to me because it marks where my new journey now begins, developing roms/improving old roms/porting roms (roms in general!)

now as for what has been changed/improved/added in this release:

- for those of you who have any rom based of cyangenomod you now have the option to long press the volume button when the screen is on OR off and change the track that is playing....so if you're listening to track A for example and the screen is off and you don't feel like wasting that extra .xx% of battery, you can now change the track to track B (or track X,Y, or Z if you have shuffle on) by just long pressing the volume button up to skip to the next track or down to skip to the previous track/restart a track :D

- also i changed the vm heapsize to 24m for all roms that i have this tweak available for EXCEPT gingerbread (which has the vm heapsize set to 32m). this will provide even better performance for all of our roms now. why did i change all of the other roms vm heapsize to 24m?

thanks for that tip bro, you're right about that :D

- i also changed the opengl version to read in apps that require this information that our heroes utilize version 2.0, but really in all the zip's i only have opengl 1.1 included (which is still an update from having 1.0 opengl as stock in all roms). so you're still getting the opengl 1.1 update and our hero's can only utilize what features opengl 1.1 provide, but i remember seeing that maps don't work or something without having the opengl version set to read in apps that require this information that we can utilize opengl 2.0 features.

- i also fixed the droidx market problem :D so for those of you who where having problems with some apps missing in the market b/c of the droidx market tweak, after flashing this latest tweak, v0.9, you'll now have the new AND old "missing" apps available. as for what the new apps are, from what i suspect they are just updates to google apps, and i have yet to find what apps are actually new/now available thanks to the droidx market tweak b/c i don't have a droidx to compare our markets, but from what i've heard our heroes are receiving SOME new apps in the market other than google apps, apps that are available for the droidx, its just that most aren't compatible :( but hey keep looking everyone and if you find a new app that is available that wasn't before and is compatible please post here. (but i doubt any of you have a droidx along with your hero...but if you do GREAT! please help with testing compatibility of new apps :D)

thanks oostah ;)

- also i now have combined the following flashable zips into one (oxed or deoxed...it doesn't matter):

liquidsense 2.1

liquidsense 2.1.1

nfx stock 2.31

nfx stock 2.32

so now if you use any of those roms, you just need to flash the nfx sense based roms.zip b/c all of these roms are based off nfx stock rom. so once i realized this, i tested and made sure that i could just have 1 flashable zip for the all of the following roms (deoxed or oxed)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now i'd like to say thanks to everyone for supporting me from the beginning when my build.prop tweaks weren't all that great to helping support me to where the build.prop actually is helping improve performance and even "overclocking" the network speeds. thanks for the support again, i wouldn't have been this far on this tweak without you all. i'm sad to say that now that i'm going to move on to learning about and developing/improving/porting roms, i'm not going to be focusing on this tweak as much, so that means less frequent updates regarding this tweak. but i will still be reading this thread and answering any questions that need to be answered, i'll update the gingerbread flashalbe.zip to his latest build every so often (he updates too frequently for me to be constantly downloading his newest builds so if someone could volunteer to post the latest build.prop whenever he release a new build, that'd be great!), i'll release a new version of this tweak if something needs to be fixed or if i think of something that is good enough involving this tweak for me to release a new version. also i'll update the first post so that it includes why/what the tweaks actually do in my build.prop tweaks. but that update to the first post won't happen today unfortunately.

again thanks everyone
