Guest dino_mk Posted January 15, 2011 Report Share Posted January 15, 2011 Ok, the rom is here. This is really not ready for end-users, so I don't recommend anyone use it, but for the other developers that want to take a look, go for it. It is very slow to boot, especially the first boot. 3G doesn't work for me on first boot, but that might be because of an apn that causes problems on the network I use, it is fine after I fix the apn problem and reboot. Lights aren't working but should be an easy fix. Sensors don't work, but I'm sure did when I first tested CM7. There is no space on /system and gapps isn't installed. I think the only thing I removed from the default cm7 config was one of the audio packs (with the default cm7 config it was a few MB too big to fit in /system). Since cache goes to /data we could maybe mount mtdblock3 somewhere in /system to add more space (eg. puts /system/apps on mtdblock3 (cache 20MB)), but it would be better to modify the partition sizes and effectively remove the cache partition. Camera doesn't work. I don't think egl works. There may be many other things that don't work. First thanks for all your work Tom! Is this partition problem with uk 2.1 update partitioned space? Because if I remember correctly the Swedish 2.1 update was making 10mb bigger system partition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ggPeti Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 I own a U8230 and the CM6.1 port works like a charm, same bugs as on the pulse (camera app multiple photos, wifi staying dormant after phone wake, gps icon stuck in notification bar after disabling it, though wifi mac unconfirmed, haven't tested yet.) Didn't try this ROM yet either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest arlindo.costa Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Is the TMN A1/U8230 one of the higher spec devices with 256MB RAM? I've never had confirmation that my roms work on the higher spec version. I don't know how the partitions are setup on the version with the larger nand, but I would expect a bigger system partition on them. Can you please provide output from 'cat /proc/mtd' on your phone. Thanks. Yeah it is higher speced than the original pulse 256RAM/256ROM. Ive always used your ROMS ;) . I think the problems with compatibility of your ROMs occur with the Huawei Ascend M860 which is similiar but has 256RAM/512ROM.. As for 'cat /proc/mtd' I'll do that later this afternoon.

Thats interesting. Where is that meant to be mounted. My roms won't use userdata2. It should be mounted somewhere in init, but I never knew it existed, Its only 20MB so considering you already have a 202MB userdata you aren't really missing much. Not working Sensors Camera SD card (cant mount on PC) Battery life also seems to be noticeably worse. I also experimented with dtapps2sd installing dtapps2sd-2.7.5-final-std-signed which also works. Do you mean SD card works on the phone but isnt seen as a mass storage device to the PC? If you look in logcat you will see that mediaserver constantly dies. I expect that will have a significant impact on cpu use and battery life, so hopefully that is the cause of your reduced battery life. PS. Your device has 512MB nand/rom, not 256MB. Your system partition is 170MB which should be more than enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest totiadrenalin Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 (edited) About the LibEGL. I found a sollution on the xda-devs forum. http://www.xda-developers.com/android/work...-1-on-htc-hero/ I'm not sure if it's gonna work on CM7, But I'm quite sure that it is working as hell on the cm6. I just test it. See what you could do. And about the sensors. In the cm6, as fare as i can remember, you put the 2.1 huaweis /hw libs. Try this out once again with the cm7. I just hope it'll work in here to. I'm even uploading the OpenGL file as a zip here. it's just a upgrade from 1.0 to 1.1 in build.prog change from : ro.opengles.version=65536 to ro.opengles.version=65537 I can reach over 28.9 fps in neocore with this modofication and over 480 benchmark points in quadrant I really hope if i can help you somehow. EDIT: I forgot to mention that I was using the 710 Mhz overclocked cernel for the tests! WOWWWWW!!!!! Angry Birds and nfs Shift are running like hell now!

I Try this already on cm6, and I see the improvement =D. But I wanna ask u something, what's your configuration right know? Im using OC 710 kernel, not using dta2sd, no swap, jit enable on cm configuration and no compcache and the VM heap is on 24m, and in the neocore I get only 27.0 fps (before 22.6) and in quadrant 478 (before 488).

Regards! No dta2sd. Swap partition=128MB Swappy=60 Jit enabled VM heap32m With and without compcache. 710Mhz oc kernel I get 28.9fps - 29.2 as a heap results in neocore. The constant resoult is about 28.1-28.5 And the quadrant results are somewhere between 475-515 intermediate result 490. I just wan't to ask Tom if he please try to implement this in his CM7 rom. I just hope so that the results the CM7 rom would be similar with the results in the CM6 rom. Also move the CMWallpaper.apk from /system/app/ to /data/app/ That way you will free up 4MB space in system.

Same score in Neocore than before. Unzip and via adb push command push the. Libgles_qcom.so in /system/lib/egl/ or simply folow the link I post snd read the instruction (how to) in there. When I get home I'l try to implement this in the Toms cm7 rom and upload it on the Richards DropBox. And please let this thread stay on topic. Only pos5 issues and fixes for the cm7 rom. I'll read truogh all pages every day and update the first post. So Tom can simply find everything he need to fix the issues. Let's make Toms, and ours job easyer!
