Good work man, I'll try it!!
imho, it's one of the featured smoothest rom besides CM. try it with BFS kernel.
Hmm.. there seems to be little interest in this rom port. I'll discontinue the port if people don't want it.
Thanks a lot for the hard work. Will try it out mate
no many issues so far, everything seems to work well.

Thank you. this is just what I was looking for. I was using bcrook's CM port in earlier versions and was doing ok(only some FCs in the first boot).
and since build Y I can't user bcrook's port with app2sd and swap..maybe something to do with the new kernel.
I did post in that thread if there is a 32A port prior the release, but guess too many people are just too excited for the new release and overlooked my post..anyway
please don't discontinue it, I am sure many people will like to run WG build on their 32A Sapphire.
just wondering, I saw your other thread MAGIC Port, can we use that with ANY dream/32B ROM? and more importantly, is is stable? (I saw an big red ALPHA..)
if so, can we also use that with WG-Build?
so you can take a rest now, then?

Thanks for porting, this rom seems sexy. Lol. Aniwae, pls continue! Since it would be great to have this rom widely used on 32A radios.
@haozheng91
MAGIC Port is stable actually.
But no, for WG Build and few other roms, even though it ports properly, it doesn't do a full port. For Cyanogen Mod, WG Build Y, Enomether etc. they use custom kernels. When you use my magic port, well, it does work, but it's not using the intended kernel which the ROM creator compiled.
But anyway, your problem was you're using CM Port over WG Build Y.. that's incorrect because of the different ramdisk (the rom init script). Hence the A2SD failed.
---
the rom is stable so far for me. i'm loving it and the smoothness.
so far, no FC. though, BFS does drain battery.
What's the difference between CFS & BFS?
multitouch
wipe
flash WG-Build Y.R1 - CFS with RAM Hack
flash wgbuildy_ebi1_signed.zip - CFS kernel
everything is going well, but multitouch doesnt work ...
BFS: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_Fuck_Scheduler
Naturally, smoother UI but drains a little more battery.
@coltcha:
CFS somehow doesn't work. Try BFS. I'll recompile the kernel once wesgarner release another version.
Does this ROM include the radio image that will brick a 32A magic?
BFS drains more battery.. that's good to know.
if Cyanogen Mod and WG Build use different kernel, then what are some ROMs we can use your magic port? Cyanogen Mod is one of the most popular ROMs there..
what about any of the Eclair ROMs?
I have heard that BFS is supposed to be a little faster..but WG recommands CFS as BFS is not as stable or something.. as for the battery, I always have to recharge everyday, so can't really tell the difference between different ROM or kernel...

it doesnt.
@haozheng91
like i said, it'll work on any 32B roms.
it's just not a full port for cases of roms with custom kernel. so... if you go on to the dream forums, if the ROM dev say he compiled his own kernel... you will just not benefit from the custom kernel enhancement. that's all.
though, most of the time, the custom kernel isn't much of a benefit as they're usually just variants of existing kernels with different build configs. you'll also see that most devs tend to us CM kernel... especially eugene eclair roms and some senseui roms.

So it is safe for me to flash the ROM and then apply your port file, with my current SPL and Radio? Thanks.
yes. it should be. but then again, flash at your own risk, i or the rom dev aren't responsible if you brick your phone.

Good job Hopefully these fixes make it into all the awesome ROMs out there (yours included)
So this is the much anticipated OpenGL and Multitouch?
I actually grabbed the source from github /jhansche/htc-2.6.27-heroc last night. Got it compiled and running and I have to say it works nicely. Loving the OpenGL, but especially the multi-touch!
You guys are awesome. Thank you for all your hard work!

Sure is. This is the code base that got me the highest-on-Hero-so-far 29.9fps bench on neocore that I posted a screenshot of in his thread.
Amazing work guys
damn it I really need to get a linux setup so I can compile the kernels. I WANT THIS!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!

Yes, this codebase (the last few days' commits at least) will enable hw3d and multitouch, and can be applied to any .27 kernel that is based on the htc-heroc-2.6.27 code that HTC released (which I should hope is all of them )
And yes, any kernel can be integrated into a ROM, as long as the ROM doesn't rely on custom kernel changes (e.g., squashfs is not enabled in this codebase, but if the developer already has squashfs in his own kernel codebase, he can apply these latest commits to his code, and compile a new kernel with both squashfs and gl+multutouch support, if that's what his ROM requires)

You can't add just a kernel to an update.zip and flash it -- kernel gets combined into the boot.img, which is included in the update.zip for every ROM. boot.img also has the stuff that goes into / (like init.rc scripts), and so not every ROM will be compatible with the same boot.img, and you can't just flash a boot.img by itself via zip (you can via flash_image in recovery, but still, some ROMs require the boot.img that it was designed for, due to init ramdisk )
So, this is more something for the ROM developers and the not-so-faint of heart. In reality, it's not that hard to build the boot.img, and you can actually unzip your favorite ROM's zip, unpack the boot.img, then rebuild a new boot.img using that ROM's initrd and your own custom kernel, then flash just the boot.img using flash_image, and it won't even require a wipe. That's again assuming the ROM doesn't rely on anything custom in the kernel it was released with.

Here's the GSM Hero devs discussion: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=685489
Github:
http://github.com/toastcfh/CdMa-HeRoC-2.6.29
toastcfh has the kernel up for 2.6.29, and is supposed to work for GSM Hero. I am no dev, but if I remember correctly this is the kernel source we are missing for 2.1 to happen for the 32A Magic.
The only difference between the GSM Hero and the 32A Sense UI 2.6.27 kernel that I saw was FB_MSM_LOGO, which did nothing except display a rgb565 logo. Didn't the same config compiled on the GSM Hero kernel work 32A before on the same kernel? Will it just work this time then for 32A Magic?
Here's the Cursordroid 32A Magic kernel: http://github.com/cursordroid/HTC-CCR-Kernel/blob/master/kernel-2.6.27
Or we could add the 'FB_MSM_LOGO' config option, but I don't think it really does anything important. I only see it under: http://github.com/cursordroid/HTC-CCR-Kernel/blob/master/kernel-2.6.27/drivers/video/Kconfig
Code:
config FB_MSM_LOGO
depends on FB_MSM
bool "MSM Frame Buffer Logo"
help
Show /logo.rle during boot.
One possible way to test this is to compile a kernel same as compile for GSM Hero (those settings might need to be confirmed by toastcfh, who seems to know his way around this kernel). Then pack a boot.img for Cyanogenmod 5 and see how that runs.
My cousin uses the 32A Magic so it's not exactly free for development at the moment. But it's worth a shot I think. Or am I being stupid?

im willing to test it
its open source kernel we have been waiting for new radio!!
I think this may have a chance to work with our device as CCR kernel by cursordroid is just a modified teknologist kernel
if someone could compile it we could try
would be lovely if it works
then we could really get something done
Maybe I am being an idiot, but if the radio and SPL are identical would someone try flashing a Hero ROM to your 32A?
This one is built on the new toastcfh kernel I think.
[ROM] 20 May 2010- Cronos Droid (2.1 Release full 2.6.29)

If this doesn't work, maybe the extra config option does need to be added. But I don't think it is even necessary.
Things may break, but this 2.1 Sense UI Hero ROM will boot on 32A Magic I think.
After seeing how 32A overclocking results have been IDENTICAL to the GSM Hero, I keep thinking of how similar our devices might be.
I can take that boot.img apart. It will be missing the sapphire boot file in there.

good job! that means we can get CM and overclocks for new radio hopefully
If you compile an update.zip, can you use Koush's Anykernel format? That way we can just try it across different ROMs. Just the zImage and wlan.ko should be enough for most ROM ports in this forum.
By the way Cursorsense has always rom on 32A Heros:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=620243
And I've attached the init.sapphire.rc and init.hero.rc from Cursorsense
Also attached the build.*.prop files from CM5 test 5 that should get other things going.
They seem quite different though.
Doesn't seem any compilation needs to be done though. Just download the 2.1 Sense ROM, unpack boot.img, and repack it. The same wlan.ko should work fine.
I use something like this, based on CM Wiki's kernel port guide:
unpack-H.pl boot.img
mkdir ramdisk
cd ramdisk
gunzip -c ../boot.img-ramdisk.gz | cpio -i
cd ..
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now slip in the init.sapphire.rc and modify whatever you need to the ramdisk
repack-H.pl ~/cm-kernel/arch/arm/boot/zImage ramdisk boot.img
mv boot.img /media/win_share/boot.img

If everything plays nicely, we should be seeing 2.1 ports by the bucketload this weekend.
I'd like to see the HTC Legend port updated for this If not it's a matter of AnyKerneling it.
dum di dum, hopefully someone does it soon cannot do crap on the windows box
what we need is just a kernel image,and the rest is kroush's Anykernel script——I successfully port CM 5.0.7 test1~5 to new radio by using sanpei's kernel image(not boot.img but the kernel ),it works well~
Can someone look at this? I tried putting together a .config for Cyanogemod 5: http://pastebin.com/cKkBNtKJ
This compiles
Just following up on this, I talked to toastcfh a little and he has updated a .config for the sapphire on github. But it still does not boot the Magic. It gets stuck on splash1 and does not respond to any adb commands.
I will add in some of the missing stuff when I wake up tomorrow. Or someone else can give it a shot.
keeping a very close eye on this one, very interesting. wish i could contribute to this somehow
You can.
Follow this: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/How_to_build_a_kernel_port_for_CM5
There's also this in case anything goes wrong with the more updated method for CM5:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/How_to_build_a_kernel_port
do a git clone on the toastcfh kernel source instead (change the url)
Everything else is like the same
Sanpei has good news about kernel source for new radio.
Can any body port this great ROM or point me how to port as Alan has stop porting for HTC-Clay ROM

i second this as well... apparently superbad 1.6 is said to have a better battery life..
If you want to use the newest SuperBad, all you need to do is download any overclock kernel for 32A like pershoot's or dumfuq's (or mine) and flash it after flashing the 32B version of the ROM and it will work, for instance I'm running chromatic 2.1 on my 32A with no problems
i only found cyanogen kernel so far
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=681165
so just flash this on top of the 32B ROM? sorry to ask this again but i just want to confirm once again before flashing
thanks for the answer
Yeah that's the kernel I ported. SuperBad is a heavily customized version of cyanogenmod but it still uses cyanogen's kernel. I know for certain that everything should work.
alright, thanks rps13!!!

just flash the kernel on top of the rom. this superbad is fast and very smooth in my opinion. however the battery life is still poor.
because superbad 1.6 base on CM5.08 T4 , I thought that you can try to change boot.img with CM5.08 T4 32A roms, my tim G2 is not here , I will try it latter

Well I don't think anybody should do any special port for any G1/32B roms.
I you wish to flash any of the roms in g1 section, the only thing you need to do is flash one of pershoot/bcrook/dumfuq 32A kernels on top of it and it will work just fine. Just make sure you flash the correct kernel version according to the rom base CM version.
In my opinion there is not a significant benefit to porting SuperFroyo since we now have other Froyo roms (without sense ui) that....
(1) Run on 32a 3.22 and 6.35 radios
(2) Have JIT working
(3) Have overclock kernels available up to ~700+ MHz
(4) Have Spareparts, CyanogenMod Settings and SetCPU for tweaking rom performance
These roms can now easily get 4.0-5.0 in Linpack and are stable.
Out of curiousity, I ported SuperFroyo a few days ago. The performance tweaks in SupSetup were not capatible with the .32 Sanpei kernel that was available for the 32a 6.35 radio at the time I did the port. We recently have the .34 kernel for the 32a 6.35 radio (thanks to carz12 and Switch33). I will update the ported SuperFroyo with the .34 kernel for the 32a 6.35 radio tonight or tomorrow hopefully. I don't think the result will be better than the other Froyo roms we have now, but I am happy to post a link if people want it.
thank you brother giant_rider for your hard work to give us the happiness

Hey giant_rider, I want link.
Thanks
giant please post the link
Here is a link to a ported SuperFroyo rom.
It is running Sanpei's .32 kernel for 32a 6.35 radio.
Some of the features in SupSetup are not enabled because they are not compatible with the kernel the way it is set up.
http://rapidshare.com/files/408904656/SuperFroyo2.4_32a_NR_v0.2.zip.html
I have been unable to get this rom to boot properly using the carz / switch .34 kernel. You can try flashing that kernel over this rom from recovery if you like. I think all of the settings in SupSetup could be enabled with the .34 kernel.
I am still sceptical whether this rom will be any better than the ones we have for 32a 6.35 or 3.22.
For a fast lite rom, I suggest you try flashing Switch's Fusebox Froyo, then install SetCPU and up the max CPU to 652 or 691 MHz. I did this tonight and got linpack of 4.6 and my phone is stable.
giant_rider,
Thanks
I hear people talking about updating kernel on a CWM rom, im currently using CoreDroid DHD v5.4 With the kernel that came with it. im checking my kernel info and it has a date of march 9 on it. so can i use the kernel update utility 9 on this rom to update it. also i here people talking about changing kernels whats that all about.
Thx in advance

Ok i meant a kernel for a coredroid DHD rom, is there any kernels
I just made a post about this yesterday when some one was asking about battery life, but I will post again.
The only roms that have custom kernel are the ones who's source has beeen released, or have been built from source ie. Froyo builds, CM7 builds, Miui builds. None of the ginger bread roms based on the leaked DHD have custom kernels, and probably won't have custom kernels. HTC is more then likely not going to release the source to their leaked rom. Also when flashing kernels you don't not want to switch bases, meaning you don't want to flash a CM7 on Coredroid (gingerbread) or a Froyo based rom.
If your still a little confused about what a kernel is, think of it this way ( I forget who said it in a thread before me), but a Rom is what you see on the screen, and a Kernel is what makes it happen.

None of the ginger bread roms based on the leaked DHD have custom kernels, and probably won't have custom kernels. HTC is more then likely not going to release the source to their leaked rom. Also when flashing kernels you don't not want to switch bases, meaning you don't want to flash a CM7 on Coredroid (gingerbread) or a Froyo based rom.
If your still a little confused about what a kernel is, think of it this way ( I forget who said it in a thread before me), but a Rom is what you see on the screen, and a Kernel is what makes it happen.

Very well it came out four days ago. Even though what I said is still true there still isn't a custom kernel from the dhd source, because HTC more then likely won't release it. Good to see they ported one though.

true, i'll give you that one. that's the nice thing about linux through it's open source nature makes for the ability to use one devices code to create a work of art for another device.
Coredroid is using leedroids latest custom kernel. It doesn't work well with 5.4 but works greatttttt with 6.0!!
