Kkifno,

When you feel better if you could post a build.prop for the latest GB rom with the edify scripting, that would be awesome. I could post the latest build.prop if needed.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
Yes it will be a lil while.

here you go
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
It isn't signed :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
sorry give me a min:eek:

man i cant sign it sorry thought i had one that was signed. i will keep looking for a signed one.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spleef:
try this one

i used avabox to sign it
[Hero CDMA Android Development] JWnSC:
You can also sign zip files from your phone using Zipsigner from the market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
aosp 2/16 there ya go
[Hero CDMA Android Development] spleef:
Flashed. And running thanks bud no issues to report
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
cool thanks kifno :D hope you are getting better man :cool:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] partytrikk:
can someone please mirror the 2/16 build.prop? I can't download attachments on mobile :(

EDIT: 2/18 just dropped. if I can get a mirror for this build prop ill be happy to test if it works with 2/18

EDIT,EDIT: I decided to stop being lazy and download from the browser. ill let you guys know if it'll work on 2/18 shortly :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] partytrikk:
flashing it worked :) you may need to wipe cache and delvic afterwards, I did anyway.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] unCoRrUpTeD:
To everyone using this mod.....

Go into settings on the xda app and setup a customized sig.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
its a 3 day weekend for me starting today so i'm going to work on getting v0.9 out sometime late at night tonight :) (its 6pm here so i'm going to work on it until about 12am...some where between then v0.9 will be released :))
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
hay man heres that apps2sdkiller and i may not be around much going to be moving so dont trip if i dont reply and check your in box
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
i don't need that for nfx's stock rom it doesnt' come with apps2sd AT ALL.....its just sense 2.1 like i want it (i optimized the rom too....) but for some reason that rom won't use data2ext even if it's installed.....so i don't know what you mean by it may not have the right files installed....what else do i need to add to the rom to get it to work?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
I noticed there were no details on what was actually changed in the OP so I downloaded and did a quick diff, and I'm confused as how you're "overclocking" network speeds, or improving battery life.

# New OpenGL settings
debug.sf.hw=1
ro.opengles.version=65537

This just defines the opengles version. It's beneficial for some actions/activities that require the definition, most don't

# New jit dalvik and multitouch settings
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast
dalvik.vm.heapsize=32m
ro.product.multi_touch_enabled=true
ro.product.max_num_touch = 2

Specifically, adding the product mutli_touch_enable is just a redundancy of the multitouch permissions xml in /system/etc/permissions. Heapsize is too large for our low mem devices pre-gingerbread.

# DF MODs
ro.media.dec.vid.wmv.enabled = 1
ro.media.dec.aud.wma.enabled = 1
ro.media.dec.aud.flac.enabled = 1
ro.media.dec.aud.ape.enabled = 0
ro.media.dec.vid.avi.enabled = 1
ro.media.dec.vid.flv.enabled = 0
ro.media.dec.vid.qt.enabled = 0
ro.media.dec.vid.rm.enabled = 0
video.accelerate.hw =1
debug.performance.tuning =1

^ None of these settings above do anything... at all. They change no parameters in opencore or stagefright regarding media.

#Network Speed Tweaks
ro.ril.enable.a53=1
ro.ril.enable.dtm=1
ro.ril.enable.3g.prefix=1
ro.ril.gprsclass=8
ro.ril.hep=1
ro.ril.hsdpa.category=24
ro.ril.hsupa.category=3
ro.ril.hsxpa=2
ro.ril.htcmaskw1 = 14449
ro.ril.htcmaskw1.bitmask = 4294967295

Do you have any documentation on what the first 3 lines do? They seem to be hspa(gsm) specific so they shouldn't benefit us at all. gprsclass falls into that same point, as well as the rest of the hs* regarding changes.

I'm not sure what htcmaskw1 is?

Documentation?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
I made these points earlier in the thread as well. Not really sure what the changes made were, expressed that about a month ago.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Open up the script and check what binaries it uses. The stock Sense ROM didn't come with any of the e2fs binaries because it didn't use any EXT partitions.

This is the same reason data2ext doesn't work right on aospMod Froyo -- aosp took out the e2fs binaries to make the ROM smaller.

You should be able to extract them from CyanogenMod.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
i mean a long list of lines i found that are able to be added to the build.prop that

AFFECT THE NETWORK SPEEDS

lol i just found the right lines and choose the right numbers after constant testing to get the best network results :)

is that why you're saying WTF!? lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
It's much easier when you just admit "I don't know" ... :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Admit I don't know to what? What are you talking about? now i'm confused lol :confused:
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
Or you can go the less easy way and choose to banter ... the GSM handset technology, settings and configuration parameters have zero to do with CDMA handset technology, settings and configuration. In some instances they (CDMA and GSM handset technologies) do perform similar functions, but parameter definitions are not normalized anywhere.

So to claim that a GSM handset setting will improve CDMA handset performance, or vice versa, is ridiculous.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
i have no idea what, what you just said, even means but all i know is that my network tweaks showed improvemnt in networking speeds and performance. i don't know exactly why (i think that's what you're talking about) but they just do

edvidence: LOTS OF TESTING
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
Well, after 25 years in wireless telecom here's another jewel of wisdom: if you do absolutely nothing to your handset and test on ten different days, you may well get ten different results. And if so, what would you attribute the changes to?

If you can't answer that question then you probably have no business making any wireless technology related claims. :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] phillyman7200:
I can stand up and say whatever kif did my network speeds were def faster. . Internet sites def loaded faster. Only thing is my battery was being sucked when my screen was off. I'm still trying to see if it had something to do with apps but so far it looks like it was the build. Other than that I have to say something worked lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dhero1:
Here's another hint: the answer has absolutely nothing to do with being a Linux | Android | IOS | Meego | Symbian | etc., handset software developer ... :)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] CrashV2010:
Nevermind... Just ranting and blowing off steam.... Is this more then 10 ch...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I don't know what that means all I know is that I increased the speeds of the mobile network and that I know I did because the settings I made actually do effect the mobile network speeds. Like I said earlier go back to that text file I uploaded with the various settings I tested and pick one with like > 100kbps on uploads and downloads and see how fast your internet performs, or any other app that uses the internet.....you'll go mad and crazy at how slow it made your mobile network but when i used the best tested settings everything performed much faster. All I can say is i tested those settings over and over, over a long period of time and I know they effect the network speed and I choose the settings that are most beneficial to us, in terms of increasing our network speeds. The performance increase speaks for itself. :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Neo31697:
I just noticed a couple of things,in the build prop it says shadow vzw does that mean that its using vzw towers? Also if I change the name of my HTC cdma hero to Droid x do I have to do anything else to get the benefits of more apps?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Now it isnt' using verizon's towers lol. In order to get the benefit of more apps (i don't know specifically what they all are) in the market you have to do a few things. If you're looking to manually apply the market tweak then edit the following lines to the following:

ro.product.model=[B]DROIDX[/B]
ro.product.name=[B]shadow_vzw[/B]
ro.product.device=[B]cdma_shadow[/B]
ro.product.board=[B]shadow[/B]
ro.product.manufacturer=[B]motorola[/B]
ro.build.product=[B]shadow_vzw[/B]
ro.build.description=[B]cdma_shadow-user 2.2 VZW 2.3.9 ota-rel-keys,release-keys[/B]
ro.build.fingerprint=[B]verizon/voles/sholes/sholes:2.2/FRG01B/45394:user/release-keys[/B]
# system.prop for [B]CDMA Shadow[/B]

:D that's how i did it :) I changed those lines to be the same as those lines in the droidx's build.prop and it lead the market to believe we have a droidx :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
How does that actually help? "More apps?" Out of those apps, which are probably things like flash player and google earth, most if not all probably don't even work on the hero.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Neo31697:
well i am noticing that apps like angry birds (not to mention others i used) are no longer in my market. So i was thinking that it had to do with the fact that i was on the HTC HERO CDMA and not the DROIDX as far as the market knew
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yeah. It reappears with the DROIDX version. But it plays horribly ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] theimpaler747:
Hence my point on it not really doing anything productive/useful to the market ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] oostah:
Remember the market updated to 2.3.2 so some things have changed in the market.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yeah the "new" apps that we do get may not work, I just wanted to expand the availability of apps for our hero's even if they may or may not work. (I said that in some post a LONG time ago lol).

I forgot to say that in the ADDITIONAL BUILD PROPERTIES everywhere you see

"-sprint-" (without the quotes lol) change it to "-google-" (without the quotes lol) and that'll bring back all of your "missing" apps that you saw originally on the hero and you'll still have the "new" apps from the droidx market tweak

See above for the fix to keeping the many old apps that went "missing" and yeah like I said the "new" apps that appear may or may not work but hey I got the hero to have more apps available and that's what I was looking to achieve, not trying to achieve how to get the market to show more apps that are available from the droidx AND make them compatible (that's up to you all if you are good with apps like impaler) with the hero device. i just expanded our market options :D

so it is partially beneficial (more apps = yes, compatibility = BIG TIME MAYBE)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I just started dual booting windows 7 with linux mint :D

that means I know have a linux distro so i'll be moving on to bigger and better things everyone so that means less updates to this unless something seriously needs to be fixed (aka i'm going to release v0.9 in a few minutes to fix the market issue people are having with losing apps that show up without the droidx market tweak and only including the newer apps, so i'll be fixing it so that you all get the new and the old :D) and yeah that'll be about it...i'm now moving on to bigger and better things for our hero's :D

again i'll only be updating this tweak if i need to add something seriously big (like the network tweak for example) or if something needs fixing

thanks for all the support everyone :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
@Kifno..thanks for the other thing...by the way, is your build.prop included in aospCM7?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
not completely it is best to reflash the aospcm7 zip from my first post (follow the instructions) also the latest aospcm7 zip is in a post of mine that i posted a few post back :D

and yeah the update to v0.9 might be a while i'm still getting used to linux :D

and relearning how to sign things and zip and unzip them on linux (its like getting a new computer all over again :D)

i actually like linux too
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
haha cool...

quick Q though, v0.8 works w/ latest aospCM7 2/21? I see it says 2/1 in ur OP...?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaymack24:
Is there any danger with this and would the carrier notice anything out of the ordinary?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
Yeah the latest aosp build.prop i've released is in a post of mine a few post back (it may be a few pages for someone else b/c i read threads w/ 50 post per page :D) but i have it attacted in a previous post of mine somewhere but i'm trying to learn to sign and zip in linux so that i can release v0.9 and move on to some real developing :cool:

Do you mean would they notice that you're getting faster network speeds than you're supposed to be getting? I don't think so I haven't gotten a notification about my network speeds or data or anything along those lines. But I don't know if changing the RIL settings (which affect our network speed/settings) for our devices on the sprint network has/will make them mad about getting more than we're supposed to. But again no one has reported anything from sprint about network or data or anything so you will be fine :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
Nice, will look through...glad to hear ur moving on to developing other things (dont forget about our Hero's!, lol)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] old.ghost:
Does the tweak work on aospCMod 2/21 build?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I won't be getting a new phone anytime soon so I'll be dev-ing for our heros :D

Yup ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Neo31697:
In your build prop for the hero cm7 i noticed that you have the screen size 320x960 and the hero native resolution is 320x480 would it hurt anything to change that back or does it have to stay that way for some reason?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
awesome!!! neither will I if our Hero keeps getting support like this...thanks

question, when I flash this it replaces the current build.prop, now If I flash a newer build of aospCM7, does it replace it and I would have to re-flash yours?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
leave it that way. i have it set like that for a reason :D

it won't hurt anything so you'll be fine :cool:

yup re-flash of a rom = re-flash my tweak :D

that's all there is too it :D

i'm still learning how to work with my linux distro so sorry for not releasing the v0.9 update i've been promising.....it will be released soon just i'm learning to do things with my linux distro instead of taking the easy route and using windows 7 like i'm used to
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
No problem Kif, keep up the good work! We all appreciate the things you along with other devs do here :)

Correct me if i'm wrong, a nandroid backup also copies the build.prop, meaning if I flash this and for w/e reason it isnt working properly, restoring my nand from before restores my old build.prop correct?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaymack24:
does the carrier matter cause im with cellsouth
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swapped:
What exactly does this do. I tried reading thru a few pages and haven't got the just of it. I"m asking because I flashed it this morning for LiquidSense 2.1 Stable and about an hour ago i lost network for prolonged periods of time. I rebooted several times but after about 15 min the network went to 0 bars and when i tried to make a call it just said signal fade.

I restored the backup from before flashing this and it went back to normal.

I'm not saying this caused my problem. I'm not sure that it did. I'm just asking what it does and if it could have these effects?

Thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
yup as long as you made a nandroid BEFORE you flashed this (but IMO there is no need to.....flash this and reep the rewards :D)

for the network speed tweak boost, YES! i changed the ril settings to be better for the sprint mobile network not cellsouth....sorry....if someone with cell south was willing to test out a few different build.prop's and see which one provides the best network speed boost then i'd be willing to include a cellsouth version of this tweak :D

What carrier do you have?

And this changes the ril settings for the sprint mobile network so that we get more speed than sprint allows us to have (hehehe FUSPRINT! lol)

and it applys hardware acceleration the ui

it uses opengl 1.1 instead of 1.0

ummm.....it applys the droidx market tweak which allows for more apps in the market (i still have to release the fix in v0.9)

there's more i just can't remember EVERYTHING i've been doing....it does a lot lol
[Hero CDMA Android Development] swapped:
Thanks for the reply. I have Sprint. I used the correct file for my ROM. Not sure why this happened. Maybe just a coincidence. I will try this again later in the week and see if I have any ill results. Has anyone else reported anything like this?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
Well I did the nand backup and attempted to flash it but got the amend scripting error...stating that i need to switch to edify scripting and installation was aborted...btw i am using Clockwork Recovery 3.0.0.5 and aospCM7 2/21 build...

any input?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Nilxchaos:
You need 2.5 to flash these. But in aospCM7, this doesn't work with the latest ones.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Pyr0TeK:
Sorry if this was already posted but is this already incorporated into the latest AOSP GB builds like the one I am running that was released last night or does this still need to be applied?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
My understanding is that it has been partially incorporated, but still suggest to flash it in order to receive full benefits from kifno's build.prop
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
@Kifno...is this something that will be changed in the v.9 build.prop or I have no other choice but go down in Recovery?

I just hate to change something thats been working fine to begin with :/

Thanks in advance
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
really... what does this do.... most of this is already in the cm7 build.prop. sprint uses cdma not gsm. so why would adding gsm lines do anything for us. and the code from dearmama is just to enable those different types of files to play.... but im pretty sure you can play those anyway..

i think im gonna have to go with someone with a million times more experience (decad3nce) and call shenanigans unless some more documentation is listed saying why these "tweaks" would do anything more than it already does.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
Your angle on this is on point and understandable...but something on his build.prop seems to work as others have stated improved performance...just saying...
[Hero CDMA Android Development] igtheactt1:
Why don't you just try it for yourself? Its only a build.prop file... Your whole decad3nce comment reminds me of the iphone fan boys "Oh if apple didn't make it I don't want to try it"
[Hero CDMA Android Development] kdepro:
great tweaks, i dont remember my old linpack and quadrant scores, but overall user experience is greatly improved. Thanks!

[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
I will be posting the v0.9 tonight FOR SURE and also there will be a long post from me later about the newest posts since I last posted on this thread. That will all be in a few hours though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] laie1472:
A I'm looking forward. This mod has improved my speed substantially. Especially on mobile network. Thanks kifno for the hard work man.

Yea it's me Again. With the

Modified .HERO.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
Will I be able to flash the new version with clockwork recovery 3.0.0.5? I tried v0.8 and got that edify scripting message I posted about...

Awesome how fast u picked up things on Linux, keep up the great work!
[Hero CDMA Android Development] youdug:
"and by default our phones use gsm auto (prl) NOT cdma auto (prl). i know because of ##codes## and when you first look at what radio band we are using it says cdma auto (prl)....TRUE! but that is a visual glitch that is in all roms that are able to use ##codes## (2.1 sense only i think). once you press menu > select radio band and the phone info. closes, re-click/open it and you'll see that we really use gsm auto (prl). "

the Network type goes from CDMA -1xRTT to CDMA - EvDo rev. A and the preferred network type stayed as CDMA auto (prl) each time i reloaded it. and i reloaded it about 10 times.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
hmm it seems that on 2.1 sense based roms, we use gsm auto (prl)......hmmm i wonder why?

but the network tweaks still apply to 2.1 sense, 2.2 froyo, and 2.3 gingerbread roms EVEN THOUGH THE LINES MAY APPEAR TO BE FOR GSM NETWORKS ONLY THEY WORK FOR OUR HEROES

i've tested on every rom that i support with this tweak and the network tweaks effects apply and work to all the supported roms for this tweak (that are under a sprint carrier)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zanywood:
Will this work on cm7 nightly #5?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
i didn't know there was a nightly release for aosp gingerbread/cm7 yet!!

post a build.prop for it and i'll upload the tweaked version of it asap :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zanywood:
Man your going think im stupid but I've only been tweaking my hero for a couple months and everything Ive learned has come through xda. Im learning as I go but some stuff im just ignorant too. So if wanna try to explain how to send you a build.prop ill try but like I said im just learning things.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
oh its easy just get on your nearest available computer that has the latest aosp gingerbread rom downloaded and extracted on it and navigate to the system folder and attatch the build.prop by going into advanced mode while posting on xda from a computer then scroll down to attatch files and then browse to the build.prop file and attatch it and upload it then type something in the text box and post your comment with the file attatched

that's one method :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] da305kratos:
Well Kif, u need to learn how to edify it! naw j/k, keep it up....glad things are coming back around on th linux part...look foward to your future projects... Currently looking up how to get back down to 2.5.0.7 :/
[Hero CDMA Android Development] zanywood:
I went into the nightlies forum and asked one those guys to do it cause im no where near a pc right now I use my phone for everything on wi/fi that I run off my neighbors. I tried the .9 version but don't no if it worked I flashed it though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] :
lol yeah linux was just a matter of remembering how to do this and that lol

and to get back to 2.5.0.7 just use rom manager :D

which v0.9 did you flash? and the network tweaks only work with the mobile network, if you didn't know that....but once someone post the nightly build.prop i'll notify you asap about it, since you requested it :D

edit: i just got a pm from ________ (they shall remain anonymous until someone verifies that their work, works) that they know how to edify the update-script. they sent me a link to a test flashable.zip that they want someone to test.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15283859/CM6 187 Nightly v0.9-Edify.zip

that is the link to cm6 nightly 187.zip (edified). can someone with cwm 3.0 test to see if that is flashable? post result because if it works then they can tell me how to edify the update-script for all the other flashable zips :D

also if their work works, they'll be giving credit for the help
