[Defy General] shad0wboss:
This is yet a question i want to ask everyone. Last night what i thought about was if we could sign apk files again after they had been unsigned, why can't we sign 2.3 sbf?

1. Port Gingerbread to defy and i believe it'll be buggy because that's not an easy task to do.

2. Sign the sbf just like we can sign 3rd party apk?

3. Flash the rom ;)

I don't know but i got flared up when i saw that Htc desire is to get 2.3 by the spring...and i had seen desire's performance compared to defy and it's nothing. Defy beats desire if they're both compared with 2.2 rom.

I'm a newb at all this and this is what i thought...but i would like to know the reason why gingerbread can't be ported and signed even though we have a locked bootloader. Can't someone create an exploit or something to bypass the security checking?
[Defy General] drsouly:
you can't sign a custom kernel ;)

Hi,

I have downloaded an official Rom from and Enter to Bootloader Mode by taking the battery out, then put it back in and hold down the 'Volume Down' button while briefly pressing the power button.

After the phone enters the Bootloader Screen, i have plugged in the usb cable so it says usb at the bottom of the screen and Run the pda phone rom utility.

Bu that doesn't work !!! After 1%, i received the error message 244 : Invalide model ID.

Can you help me ?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Richy99:
sounds like you dont have the correct rom for your device
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fartman2001:
No, I choose HTC HD2 on the support website, enter my serial number and downloaded the Good rom
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] fartman2001:
I found the solution :

1) Using 7-zip, open the official ROM update exe file. Do not execute it.

Inside you will see RUU_signed.nbh, extract just that file. Nothing else.

2)rename RUU_signed.nbh, to leoimg.nbh

3)Copy leoimg.nbh into your SD card which is FAT16 or FAT32 formatted.

4) Unplug the battery from the HD2, count to 10, replace the battery.

5) Hold the VOLUME DOWN button and press the POWER BUTTON, then let go.

6) Plug the usb and execute the official ROM update exe file

And Enjoy !!!

Are any of the ROMs in this thread sim unlocked? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=935605

Or does the lock have nothing to do with the ROM itself?
[Quantum General] Steven855:
The sim lock has nothing to do with the OS (actually, I think it has more to do with another part of the firmware like the radio, someone please correct me if I'm wrong). In order to sim unlock your phone, you have to get the imei # and contact your carrier for the sim unlock code.

[GT540 Optimus Android Development] eoghan2t7:
No harm tring lol it will take time to sharpin the png images up and optimize them
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] Necroduss:
Maybe you should manually scale it down to 320 x 480 and then try to sharpen it.
[GT540 Optimus Android Development] themono:
If you put on a boot animation higher resolution than the phone's native resolution, that will only slow down the animation & boot (due to the phone resizing images & higher data-read requirements) for a likely lesser quality image (my bet is the phone's resizing algorithm is worse than doing it yourself in photoshop beforehand...)
[Defy General] mmarcelfm:
Hi guys!

I recently bought a Defy that in a couple of months become soundless due the knowed acoustic speaker problem. After 15 days with Motorola Brazil, its back with original ROM for Claro, witch means that I have correct 3G/HSDPA configuration and Swype/Language for pt-BR.

I was wondering how can I help the work of u guys with that files/configuration? It's shall serve for something.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
For those of you who have been flashing Deca's capped kernels onto aosp's CM7 builds, I thought you might like this. It's a custom build of hotaru2k3's kernel source (the same source used by aosp), updated to correctly create the scaling_available_frequencies file.

What does this mean to you? Now you can use CyanogenMod's built-in CPU settings again without the dialog force-closing on you.

EDIT 1: Some of you requested an uncapped kernel as well. Both kernels below will boot at 691. The "uncapped" version will allow you to scale up to 768.

EDIT 2: Flashing this kernel is no longer necessary -- the bundled kernels now boot at 691.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Would it be possible to scale this above 691? I assume not given the thread title. If not, could you put up an uncapped one with the boot limited to 691? If not that's cool, I'll just keep using deca 43. Also, have you added this to the wiki?

[Hero CDMA Android Development] norm12:
for whatever reason, I cannot flash this using darch's recovery----I don't remember the error code, but it aborted on its own. anyone else having issues or is it just me? If it matters, I was flashing this with 2/22 aosp gb
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
It's probably edify scripting, so clockwork should do it.

sent from my hero, which no longer sucks ass
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
I'll see what I can do. What max speed are you looking for?

The error message would be helpful. Make sure you have signature verification turned off if it is present in his recovery -- I didn't sign the zip.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] charlie95113:
Hey man can you try making one at 800 MHz my hero can take that.. it would be greatly appreciated
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Sure thing.

update-jasonm-kernel-godmode.zip

This one can scale to 787.2mHz and 806.4mHz. Tried to do one at 825.6mHz but I couldn't get it to boot.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Does this one boot at 691? Mine can scale to 729.

sent from my hero, which no longer sucks ass
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Nope, boots at 806.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] norm12:
got it, thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
if you feel like it, 729600 would be awesome, or the one "godmode" lol, with a 691 boot limiter built in, that way everybody could use it, and scale to whatever works for them.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
That would be pretty freakin' sweet if possible. Though I'm not sure at what speed my phone freezes at, been a little too chickens*&t to try.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] aiwetir:
I think the best thing to have here would be one that boots at 691 but will scale as high as practical, then I think everyone can use it as long as they can get to the settings to limit the scaling.

[Hero CDMA Android Development] oohaylima:

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jasonmaloney:
Hey guys, just a quick update.

I'm trying to figure out how to support booting at 691 while keeping the higher frequencies available. It is my understanding that the kernel will always boot at the highest possible speed before being instructed to lower it (however short an amount of time this may be), but I'm still doing some testing.

I haven't forgotten about you :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jckeyser:
Rock n Roll.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
You obviously know more about this than me. I hope this might help, aosp said the boot limit had to be built into the kernel config. Also, the deca uncapped #43 boots at 691 but scales to 768, maybe if you unpack that one you will find something useful. Thanks for your work so far, I will soon be running the 691 in your op with the 2/24 aospCmod, to save some time and headache for me, and test it out :)

Edit: does this have the swap/compcache fix that jaybob posted in the nightlies thread?

sent from my hero, which no longer sucks ass
[Hero CDMA Android Development] FussyQBert:
I'm not sure that that fix is made on the kernel. I'm flashing 2/25 now with this kernel (691 capped) and I'll get back here with compcache info.

Also, I'd love to see a 691 boot capped-uncapped kernel! :D
[Hero CDMA Android Development] FussyQBert:
Ok, well I guess the fix is needed on this kernel. I flashed asopCM7 2/25 and then flashed the kernel and my compcache is still broken. Here is a link to jaybob's post with the fixed script files

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11610017&postcount=184
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
Correct, I am now on aospCmod 2/25 and the capped kernel in this OP, and running "free" in TE showed 0 swap. I put the 3 files Jaybob posted into /system/bin and changed the permissions, now swap is working. You can change the files permissions 2 ways. First way is either adb or TE, run "chmod 755 /system/bin/filname" for all 3 files. Second way is w/root explorer go into /system, mount it r/w, then long press each file and click permissions, change each to: user=r/w/x,other=r/-/x,group=r/-/x.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Macanage:
Just Curious what the advantage your seeing in this Kernel or Deca's that you dont see with the stock kernel in GB?
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
It's the same as the stock kernel, only this one boots at 691mhz for heros that can't handle the higher frequencies. If you can run the stock kernel, leave it. All of these are forked from deca's base, so they're all similar, but the GB version of the kernel is newer, so theoretically better.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] Decad3nce:
There's a GB version? :P
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
lol, I guess not, but it's easier than saying aosp's version of hotaru's fork of your fork/kernel. Where you been lately, s0be just posted a "less brokened .35", meanwhile you lost in nooky land ;)
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
This actually didn't work for me using the stock kernel. I also tried different permissions..according to most online documentation I could find 755=rwxr-xr-x, not rw-r--r-- as you outlined above, however neither way allowed compcache to function after assigning rights to the 3 files and rebooting. attempting to run compcache stats told me there was no /dev/block/ramzswap0, which I'm guessing was just telling me I have no compcache. Anyways...I've just disabled compcache for now..haven't been able to mess with it much, not really sure if i notice a difference even though.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
correct 755, I edited my post, nice catch. Also, are you sure you run stock? You maybe flashed a deca kernel if my guess is right? I see you said stock, but myself (on this kernel) and others on stock have made the same 3 file push and permission fix, reboot and success. FYI, there is no ability for compcache with deca's recent kernels, the entire function is nonexistant, that's why I'm guessing you are on one. If you aren't, then it's likely you missed a step, I think. lol.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Yeah, I specifically haven't flashed a different kernel so I could mess with the stock performance settings. I even went through checking and rechecking the permissions and disabling and reenabling compcache in cm settings. The only other flash I did was the battery tweak by itself and tested with that enabled and disabled. I'm mostly writing it off as my chance to have an SMS 160 type issue where it worked fine for me but so many others have the issue. I also don't have firerats mod or any sort of a2sd...I'll probably get bored over the weekend or there will be a new release and I'll try all over again. As I said, I haven't noticed much difference at all. If I find anything that changes my result that I can pinpoint I'll be sure to mention it..thanks

Edit: as a sanity check, I wiped cache, flashed this capped kernel, reextracted the 3 files, copied them to /system/bin, fixed permissions, ensured cm settings had compcache enabled and rebooted and still have 0 swap...I'm just special!

I'm lost in "school is kicking my ass" land. :(
[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
Couple of things to check:

Is compcache enabled under Cyanogenmod settings > Performance settings > Compcache RAM Usage?

Is ramzswap.ko in /system/lib/modules/`uname -r`/... ?

In your shell of choice (i.e. 'adb shell' or Terminal Emulator app) if you do an lsmod, do you have the ramzswap lkm installed?

If no, does 'insmod ramzswap' install the module?

If yes, run 'compcache stats' to see if current stats available.

If no stats, does running 'handle_compcache' set up swap?

You can also check what the current settings are by running these from the shell:

getprop persist.service.compcache

getprop ro.compcache.default
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
last night i did a full wipe and clean installed #7 nightly. copied in the 3 files and changed permissions and rebooted with compcache enabled in cm settings nut no change. just earlier i messed with it some more checking the above things.

- compcache is enabled in cm settings

-well, i wasn't sure what uname -r was till i just searched, but at this point the ramzswap.ko is in every directory and sub-directory under /system/lib/modules/

- lsmod only shows wlan and ipv6

- insmod can't open ramzswap

- compcache stats fails to open /dev/block/ramzswap0 as it doesn't exist

- handle_compcache jut brings me to another prompt. i haven't seen any change after running it

-1st getprop tells me 18 and 2nd told me 0. that led me t change the build prop to 1, but still no change

- i had also read about the rzscontrol file not being in /system/xbin/ but tried with the one that was in there already and with the one from your zip

- i also tried creating ramzswap0 as a directory, wasn't sure if it was a file but figured i'd try, and it just is deleted on a reboot.

anyways, wanted to at least update based on your post. i'm sure it'll all get sorted out, but if there's anything you think of for me to try or if you'd like me to provide any other info, just let me know.

thanks
[Hero CDMA Android Development] il Duce:
I'm hope jaybob will chime in on the other stuff, BUT you said you edited your build prop to 1, that is not a value that compcache will accept (and *should* be overwritten by cmparts), anyway, I would say to try changing the value to 18 (it will accept 0,10,18, and I think 26) and reboot, make sure the files exist and run the "free" command. I changed mine to 18 in the build prop, not cm parts, and mine is working.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Ah, lol yeah I just treated it as a bit and didn't really look around to learn otherwise honestly. Let me try that.

Edit : ok, changed that value to 18 and restarted and it still wasn't working. However, I figured out 'compcache start 18' allowed compcache to start. Can't help but think it expects size differently though. On my phone but waiting on the hot girl at sports clips so I'll see if a Google search helps. Thanks again...like I said I didn't notice a big difference but puzzles are 1 of my few pleasures.

Edit2: I didn't need to specify size lol..48mb>16kb! Not sure why it would start by itself for others..I'm guessing I could find something to help it do that with a script

[Hero CDMA Android Development] jaybob413:
With the #7 nightly, you should not have to do anything extra. Just go to 'Cyanogenmod settings > Performance settings > Compcache RAM Usage' and select the percentage of memory you want to allocate (i.e. 10, 18. 26). All of the files are already there.

You can also set whatever percentage you want by using 'setprop persist.service.compcache nn' where nn is the percentage you want.

In either case you should then just need to reboot, and everything should be configured.

The default location for ramzswap.ko in the nightly build is (currently):

/system/lib/modules/2.6.29.6-CyanogenMod/kernel/drivers/staging/ramzswap/ramzswap.ko

It should also work in '/system/lib/modules/2.6.29.6-CyanogenMod/ramzswap.ko'

If you install another kernel that doesn't have swap configured, do not expect that it will work by adding these files.

The file ramzswap.ko (and other .ko files) is a loadable kernel module (LKM) that is built at the same time as the kernel, and is associated with that kernel. If you are trying to use .ko files built for another kernel, YMMV.

If you are looking to get this working in aospCMod, the kernel modules go in '/system/lib/modules/2.6.29.6-aospGBMod' instead of the path above. I am fairly certain that ramzswap.ko and rzscontrol are already installed, and only the modified 'compcache' and 'handle_compcache' scripts may need to be updated.

Again if you are using another kernel, you will need the ramzswap.ko that was built with it installed into the proper directory. The normal base path for kernel modules is /system/lib/modules/`uname -r` where 'uname -r' represents the kernel-release string built from the linux kernel version and "LOCALVERSION" string specified in the kernel .config file at build time. This string is reported back by the 'uname -r' command.

Based on its config, the kernel in this thread has a kernel-release string of '2.6.29.6-aospGBMod', and the RAMZSWAP functionality is built into the kernel, and not as a loadable module. If you have flashed this kernel, you will not see ramzswap from lsmod. You can try running 'compcache start 19566', then compcache stats. This should setup a swap disk using 19566kb of memory.

As background, the handle_compcache script figures out the size in kb to pass to 'compcache start' based on the percentage specified in persist.service.compcache (or ro.compcache.default). So a '10' as a percentage works out to 10 percent of 195660 (total mem) which is 19566.

Apologies for rambling on. Good luck.
[Hero CDMA Android Development] dpeeps74:
Thanks again..lol no problems on the rambling ..if you've seen the social network, at the beginning the girl says "dating you is like dating a stairmaster " as he continues rambling on. The girl I'm dating wouldn't stop laughing. But yeah, at my job when Noone can support an application they throw me into its black abyss. I wish I could so easily attribute it to me flashing a kernel or something. I'm usually one of the ones wondering what people really did to their phone on previous builds because everything usually works very normal for me. Appreciate the explanation and it helps piece together the things I did at least. Seems like my cm settings just don't like me. I have seen other weirdness with trying to do things as simple as changing wallpaper so maybe I should just reflash

Update

Alright guys, uncapped (768) kernel is up in the OP. It will boot at 691!

This one was a bit tricky to figure out, seeing as it was completely ignoring my config settings. Turns out somewhere along the line, the necessary code got commented out with an "#if 0" (wonder who thought that was a good idea...).

Thanks for the info. This was intended to be flashed onto aosp's builds, so I used a matching identifier. His kernel modules are already in 2.6.29.6-aospGBMod, so I figured that would be the easiest way to stay drop-in compatible.

hey jason, just fyi, I added this to the wiki for GB on romrepo for those with "limited" devices. I put up the original wiki info about flashing a capped kernel and using deca's so people could boot. I decided to replace that with your compiled hotaru forks (no offense to decad3nce) so people can use cmparts. I told them not to flash godmode obviuosly. HUGE thanks for doing this, hopefully people still read the wiki, all 18 of us heroc users anyway, lol.
