LFLAGS_2D = -lC2D2 -lOpenVG
EDIT: sorry lol just noticed i posted this in the wrong forum (i was sent the wrong link)

Ill give a simple explanation
Its a project started by someone that knows how to code and is looking for serious developers.
The mission is to use tools/debug and create programs to reverse engineer the adreno gpu (specifically the adreno propriety binarys under system/egl)
It is not for noobs lol
So @ op its not good news for people on xda unless they know whats going on and can contribute to that guys project

Agree. It seems DHD has its days numbered...

@OP I saw you @ qsd soc forum too, Youre better off renaming the title to include WIP & HELP & Reverse engineering adreno propriety files, to stop any confusion with xda community.
Also give more description in op to tell people what is actually going on, to get serious devs attention in hopin they will contribute
EDIT: I see plenty of rom threads, dhd scene looks alive lol

i think we also need the source code for the Desire HD as well
At last, now we can start some serious tweaking
Heeeell yeah! Its time to handle with some bigger stuff
Can someone please explain to me (quite a noob) what the main advantages of having the HTC source code are? In layman's terms. I know there are really great roms out there, so what will this source code offer? And will it also concern the AOSP roms? Thanks!!

someone tell me what is so special about this looks like all the other roms for gb
CM is basically vanilla Android with feature enhancements and higher amounts of customization throughout the system.
It's not really for people looking for effects and bling like what Sense is. It's more for people that are into getting straight to the point and customizing the phone to their exact needs.
Did he say 'unofficial CM build' at the end, at about 1:55? I thought this was official...?
Nonetheless, this looks awesome. Can't wait for it

What does he mean in the video when he says hardware accelerated video when referring to youtube videos?
What would hardware accelerated youtube videos look like?
For me, I find all the Sense widgets to be useless. At first, they are neat. Later, when my phone begins to slow down, I get to asking myself "dual cores, 1.2Ghz and I see lag!?".
Speed comes first, in my book. Then come all the neat features. I have yet to try CM, but I hear so much that I will flash it as my first ROM ever. If I dont like it, I will just stick with stock.

When did he release it and where is it then?
I only saw a post about his blog update on CM9 on different handsets and a ant about the ICS by Trip not having HW acceleration.
If you are so sure he has posted it please share the link for everybody to enjoy

The ICS information on Sensation and Evo3D update you've been waiting for - It's closer than you think
So I'm now using ICS as my daily driver on my Sensation. Like I said before I just have a few things to fix (with help (and by help I mean I kang from him) from +richard ross (That's Toastcfh)) before releasing a public alpha. Oh btw, have I mentioned that the Evo3d and Sensation are at the exact same place as far as development goesj? Toastcfh is just more modest than I am.
The list:
BT (easy fix, just have to disable an option in kernel)
GPS (Probably going to be easy, haven't really looked into it yet)
GetSwapBuffers bug (The last remaining egl issue. Will probably be kernel side and come fully from toastcfh)
What will probably be broken in alpha:
Camera - sorry the fix for this will come after release
OMX stuff - This and the camera issue almost go hand in hand, so they will probably be fixed simultaneously.
If you have an Evo3d, the 3d stuff will probably be broken too.
And uh.. that's it? I'm probably missing something, but that'll show up when you guys all start yelling at me when I release an alpha.
Note: the picture is with the statusbar pulled down in order to show the date

If you put anything at all out on a public forum you have to expect there will be questions and responses etc. There are plenty of developers here who DON'T get mad when somebody asks a question for the 100th time. Just the little I've seen he seems like his ego gets in his way.

He developed on the X10 forum here on XDA (I still check out X10, but no longer own one).
It wasn't stupid questions, what dmcb123 stated was just one of the things.
He made good stuff. But a combination of poor decisions (not just Trip but others as well) and Trip's knack of being at the center of numerous controversies negatively affected the Dev boards before he moved on to Modaco. Honestly, when all this was going on, I quit my attempts at dev work (was starting to work on my own rom) - the whole atmosphere at the time was pretty poisonous.
Honestly, he's happy doing his work elsewhere. The devs on XDA are happy doing their work here.
Okay guys lets just stop talking about him, lets bring peace to xda

You might want to get your facts right.
It is for stuff like THIS : http://android.modaco.com/topic/346...s0011rc1122-release-candidate-endtime-kernel/
GPL DISCLAIMER:
TripNDroid Mobile Engineering will make the (kernel) source code available to the "public" when everything suids our needs. This "project" will not be opensourced as long as the release is still in alpha and / or beta stage. As a little side note i would like to say that no one can prove that my kernel is exactly the way it is stated.. If i upload the HTC kernel source and just replace the acpuclock.c file and say THAT is my 3.0.4 kernel, then who can say that it isnt?

Never used it, so cannot be completely sure, but:
After much poking around the apk’s it came apparent that HTC had started to use a special binary format called m10. These m10 files were new and at the time no one knew what they contained or even how to decode them. Along came Diamondback and Flemmard, between them they managed to build a decoder/ encoder for the m10 format. Once decoded they were able to resize sense 3 and the now legendary Virtuous Unity was born.
The m10 project soon developed in to a much bigger idea, why have a piece of software that is only able to modify one element of apks. So work began on implementing existing tools such as apktool, adb and more. A lot of time has been spent making sure that work flow is correct and provides the best possible user experience.
And that's where we are today, presenting you Virtuous Ten Studio.
