Tweak and Adreno libs (like ChaCha has) to improbe 3D performance. - HTC ChaCha

As seen in several threads here @XDA (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1530411), it seems that there are newer libraries for 3D processing, to be used with the Adreno GPU, that is the ChaCha uses.
Well, I downloaded them and tested.
The benchmark app I use shows a performance improvement, but I found that modifying the build.prop file as requested, makes things worse, actually.

I wonder, have you tried using this tweak in collaboration with the one you posted about improving responsiveness? (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32158389#post32158389)
If the benchmark is showing that the performance is increased, perhaps what's slowing it down is the cpu not being compatible with the changes. turning off cpu rendering may solve the issue and actually show performance increase like the benchmark shows.

for some reason, when I flash this, my device won't boot. naturally I can get into CWM and flash a copy of the old files again, so its fine, but I'm wondering what I might be doing wrong. This happens with and without the edits to build.prop. for some reason my phone just doesn't seem to like the updated libraries.

I guess Tokafondo tested them on a GB rom, and you tested it on ICS? The libs are specific for a version:

You're welcome. By the way read the thread.

Just found this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896980
apparently works well with CM9.
gonna test later tonight, and I'll post the results on whether it's an improvement or not.(or even works on the chacha at all)
if anyone beats me to it, please post your results.

just flashing it straight up causes phone to not boot.
might need some modifications, or it may just be incompatible.
if anyone else wants to give it a look, feel free.

The "sorry for being a noob" excuse does not work with me. You could've at least search for the name of the Android version you are using. I have said read the thread because there a specific quote that says the following: "This is very specific, you should mention that this only works on Gingerbread."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history#Android_2.3.x_Gingerbread
Do you have your answer now?

Debug.performance.tuning=1
Pm.dexopt tweaks
Ro.kernel.qemu=1 (laggy UI , not every phone affect by this)
That cause the performance drop !
I still trying to find more what causing the lag ! :/

Hello All
This ROM is a compilation of my last week. So many hours were drained on this sucker but here it is.
**currently this is only available at it will be out to the public in 3-...CLOSED AWAITING PUBLIC RELEASE VERSION OF ROM
I don't hate you!
Do we just install this through custom recovery then?
OH I see, so what if we dont go back to stock with odin?
I see two different versions here.
Can you tell me what's the difference in two? I know one is over clocked one by the name but I want to know what does other one does..
Thanks,

The other one has the Andromeda Kernel.
im really hoping we get something soon like the htc's have......(get roms via rom manager) and not have to go thru this backdoor route for a custom recovery image!!!
mmmmm, think I'll wait a few days more....not sure I want to create work for myself just yet on my fresh stock rom w/root....
So far so good does have some boot problems which he stated but havent found anything else yet

All you have to if you are on the stock rom is extract the zip and run the bat script and you are good to go. It is very easy to do. And restoring from odin is just as easy. It is what I recommend but it should work without

Hey Hero, just wondering if your kernel gets along with the new update that came out today?
Do you have full rom for members or this kernel is it?If so does this kernel change theme also?And whats the difference between andromeda posted on xda and the one you have posted on here?
Thanx in advance.

lol there is a lot of differences. it is faster has better battery life and overclocks to 1.2 ghz. the frameworks have been optimized for more performance and battery. also there is a lot of theming to remove samsungs ugly colors. it is not just a kernel. it is a rom that instead of flashing moves files in place.

question
Can I rename this rom to pc36img.zip and will the phone recognize it as a stock rom when security is on? Can I use it to recover a botched root attempt?
There is another very important thing to note here. ALL 3.30.x releases are designed only for and optimized only for the latest hardware revision 004 Evo's. If you own a hardware version 001-003 Evo, the ROM may work fine in general or like others you may have nothing but issues. You will definitely find that your battery life sucks bad.
If you have a hardware version 001-003 Evo and want a truly superior running phone with outstanding battery life...and you'd like something very current, I would suggest trying out the Azrael v2.5 as it is built from the proper 3.29.651.5 code-base, the current, official release for these 001-003 Evo's.
I love Caulkin's ROMs more than anything, but just can no longer tolerate that performance and battery life I get using a 3.30.x ROM on my version 003 Evo.
From there you can play with kernels, looking for one's made from the correct code-base. The official HTC for this build is #11. The #17 kernel is for the 3.30.x ROMs for the 004 Evo's.
I hope that this helps someone. Thank you for your time.

[FIX] Smoothness on RUU 2.36.405.8 and Saga based ROMs

Some people have been asking me why my Inspire ROM based on RUU 2.36.405.8 feels smoother than other ROMs using this base (when scrolling through home screens in particular). I again thought I should share with the community to improve all Desire HD ROMs.
It's as simple as dropping in a few libs from the 2.31 leak (libsurfaceflinger.so, libsurfaceflinger_client.so, and libpagemap.so to be exact). Hopefully HTC takes notice of both this and the wifi issue and fixes them both in future builds.
This will help both RUU 2.36.405.8 and Saga based ROMs.
Just flash through Clockwork Recovery.
It may seem simple, but it actually took me a long time to narrow down which exact files are required to fix the issue, so if you appreciate my work, donations of any amount are very much appreciated.

my phones weather app started fc'ing after i flashed 6.0.2. up to then i only had the known sunday bug. after restoring to 6.0.1 fc'ing is no longer a problem. sunday bug persists.
also tried mdj's kernel v8. everything seemed fine at first. only problem was gps, wich couldn't find any satelites. now i'm on 6.0.1 with stock kernel and i just love all the working stuff. i trust, the few not working things can and will be fixed.

It's funny, I mentioned this scrolling lag quite a few times and people said things like "I have zero lag, the ROM is flying!" and stuff like that. I thought the lag was just targeting me haha. Nice to know I'm not alone .
Thanks for the fix man, I really appreciate it. I was about to give up on the laggyness on the new ROM's until I tried this out. It works like a charm and makes them as fast, or faster than the S ports.

[WIP][ROM] Eclair (Android 2.1, .32 kernel), need some help ;)

I have picked up an old project I was working on, getting Eclair on our phones.
Now you might think, why Eclair, it is much older than Froyo and we already have Gingerbread!?
The answer is simple, just because we do not have Eclair roms for our phones
Some people here think newer is always better, but that is not always the case
Eclair is already booting, but I have some FC's and launcher does not work correctly. Neither any other things work.
I was trying to get a logcat, but could not connect using adb.
Perhaps someone else can give me a solution for enabling adb?
What did I use to get eclair booting up?
Froyo bootimage
Compiled Eclair using Froyo-libs and kernel.
If you want to take a look at it, here is a pre-pre-alpha where nothing works
It is not the latest, because I'm already solving some problems.

Could not get any logcat
But it's solved
Launcher is working now!
Updated build.prop, checked if some files existed, but some were missing.
Guess I forgot something in device-files
Now working on sd-card mounting, gsm and wifi, if these are fixed I will provide an updated zip (this zip contains generic build.prop )

Non-working RIL could be caused from three things:
You missed LG services into makefiles/.rc files (if you want I can PM you some strings to add to .rc files)
Wrong libs (easy to check)
Non-prelinked libraries (define TARGET_PRELINKER_MAP (or some like that) into device_thunderg.mk and modify prelink-linux-arm-msm7xx7 or some like that with names of unlinked libs. You can see what stuff isn't prelinked with a debugging-enabled linker you can find into Swift-sense Mur4iK GT540 post. For prelink address,use google because I don't know
Would this have any actual speed benefit?

Looking for a 3.0 kernel based ROM

I've been having issues with all sound dropping out on various ROMs and I don't recall this happening on any pre-3.4 kernel based ROMs.
All the download links in the threads for 4.2.2 ROMs are now dead so I was wondering if anyone has an old file kicking around? Or know where I could find one? My hard drive died a while back and it seems everything since then has been 3.4 based so I no longer have any 3.0 ROMs on my computer that I can try myself.
Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Haha, yeah, I know. But when your phone has no sound whatsoever, it ceases to be useful. Can't remember that happenign to me on 3.0 so I figured I'd check it out.
Also, not too sure what the big deal is with 3.4. When it first came out, there was the wake lag, then that was fixed but bootloops became an issue. The 3.0 ROMs were more reliable for me in general, just not as up to date.
EDIT: Your first post ever was to tell me that? Haha

No sound issues so far but I keep getting random soft reboots and apps constantly closing (no error or pop up), Cleared caches in recovery. Anything special I'm supposed to do after flashing this? I'm so close to having a working phone again, this ROM seems likes my best bet...but now it's giving me other issues.

Try changing skin on the phone and then change it back also for soft reboots what works for me is uninstallin kernel Turner and reinstalling and applying settings again

rmbq still has some v3.0 kernel's for download here: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=3224
Try bubba Vn5 if you're still having problems.

Yeah, according to his thread all the Twisted kernel's were based on 3.0.

I can't really remember but I don't think there was any special instructions to install Liquid Smooth. Check the thread:

I love this community. Not going to have the chance to mess with this until tomorrow probably, but I will post and let you know how it all goes. Really appreciate the help.
EDIT: I read through that thread yesterday and it doesn't seem like there's anything special I need to do, so hopefully some of these other suggestions work. Once I flash it again I'll try changing the governor (if I can make it that far without rebooting, haha). If that doesn't work, you've given me lots to work with. Thanks.
I have a blackbean build with the 3.0 kernel.

OK, been busy all weekend so here's my findings:
I was able to get Liquid Smooth working using the Bubba Vn5 kernel. That was the first step.
Then I had to give it time and see if my audio dropped - and it did. So the 3.4 kernel doesn't seem to be the issue.
So I ran a logcat and while not completely versed in what to look for, I did find some audio errors relating to the audiopolicy manager, and tone generator and soundpool. Did a bit of searching and seems it could have to do with my firmware, which, of course, was also switched when I changed to the 3.4 kernel. I'm going to try reflashing 2.15 and maybe upgrade to 2.16 if that doesn't work. If neither work, I'll have to see about downgrading, but since I don't have a lower flashable zip, I'll have to mess around with an RUU so hopefully it doesn't come to that.
Thanks to everyone. At the very least, you're helping me eliminate possible causes.

If I can get my sound back I'll probably be sticking with a 3.0 based rom as at the very least I'm not constantly plagued by bootloops so I'll gladly take your copy of blackbean if you don't mind. Just another option for me to flash
p.s: my logcat should be attached. If anyone has experience with reading them, it would be greatly appreciated if you could take a look and see if anything stands out. Thanks again to everybody.
Ok, so I managed to extract the ruu using a script and flashed the rom.zip via fastboot. I am now on hboot 1.13, running LS v2.4 with bubba vn5 (3.0 kernel) and am still without sound. Logcat shows the same errors as the one I posted above (not sure exactly what they mean, but they are audio related from what I can tell.
Since I have ruled out everything I can think of on the software side, could this possible be a hardware issue?

Just here dude and looking at logcat to me look like you got no drivers or no sound hardware, not like that's any use to you.

Thanks, based on my searches, it seemed like every older ROM had dead links.
No drivers or sound hardware, huh? So something isn't right, haha. I've had sound at points so I assume there must be something up with how the software interacts with the hardware or my hardware isn't stable and works only from time to time.
Not what I wanted to hear but what can ya do? I've posted this in the Q and A forum as well, see if I can get some more info. Thanks though.

Ya I'm in no rush to delete it. I would go with an hardware issue but have you tried a Sense rom?

Got it downloaded
I've tried the newer, 4.2.2 Sense ROMs and while not entirely sure (I wasn't really looking for the sound issue at the time) I recall it happening on them, too.
But I'm going to try the old ViperOneS 4.1.2 ROM because I know that I had no issues at all back when I was using that. If it's still present, I'm going to assume it's a hardware fault and I'll have to try and unroot, s-on, go back to stock, achange my CID and all that crap and see if I can't get it replaced.
Thanks for your help.

If you still have issue then ya send it back but remember to use an RUU before S-On.

Yeah, I'm too anal to not read things 50 times before attempting it so I'll check out some guides and everything before I try to go back to stock.
Thanks again.
