[ROM] Liquid Community ROM v1.7.3 [27/07/10]

[Guest malez]

This tip was reported from azuwis, credits go to him.

I just explain how to keep settings permanent under LCR

Increase SCREEN SENSITIVITY

If you want to keep it permanent under LCR :

adb shell ins_run sensitive.sh 'echo 25 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-005c/sensitivity ; echo 25 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-005c/noise'

adb reboot

If you want to change value, use exactly the same commandline using different values (azuwis reported default values to be 75/75)

If you want to disable it :

adb shell rm_run sensitive.sh

[Guest malez]

a friend of me (Natsumi, thanks to him) reported me that the command given to increase sensitivity works well under linux but not under windows.

I will give you the right command tomorrow.

[Guest topifone]

To be honnest i have not tested it for a while.

I have mad a try with a swap file on vfat file but not on a real swap patition.

I think you can activate it with swapon and keep it permanent on each boot with ins_run

I tried:

#su

#swapon -a

But it returns an error: swapon: /etc/fstab no such file or directory

I tried to create a swapfile on sdcard then:

#swapon /sdcard/swapfile

#swapon: function not implemented

Malez, could you tell me how you do with swap file? Thanks

If you want to keep it permanent under LCR :

adb shell ins_run sensitive.sh "(sleep 90;echo 25 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-005c/sensitivity;echo 25 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-005c/noise) &"

==> under windows we need " intead of '

adb reboot

If you want to change value, use exactly the same commandline using different values (azuwis reported default values to be 75/75)

If you want to disable it :

adb shell rm_run sensitive.sh

EDIT : fixed commanline

You have to create a swap file first using dd, but it would be easier to try on a reall swap partition.

Then swapon /dev/XXXX (where /dev/XXX is your swap device)

Same problem with swapper, an application that i got from Market. Swapper author say me that Liquid kernel may not support swap.

Hi, I'm the developer of "Swapper for root user".

if swapon's output is "function not implemented" you don't have enabled swap support in your kernel...

Acer must release kernel source because linux is under an open source licence, so you can modify and rebuild a custom kernel with swap support enabled.

but if no one do that... your kernel is the same of the official one that tipically don't suppot swap, wifi tethering, etc...

Can anyone send the "/proc/config.gz" that is in your liquid rom? so I can read if your kernel configuration have swap support.

EDIT:

Swallow74 have tried to send me the config.gz file but don't exist in him liquid's /proc directory...

I'm not a rom developer, where is the .config kernel file that run in a liquid LCR rom?

Thanks for your good rom!

Unfortunalty acer does not provide the .config for eclair. If swap support was not enabled at build time, we can't enable it.

mmm... so the donut version of your rom can provide a modified kernel?

I think that donut with a mod kernel is better than eclair with original one in a device that don't have too much ram like liquid...

but so I understand that my app will not be working with eclair rom of liquid...

Thanks for your support!

do you know why is the volume on the 3.5mm port so low?? is there a way to turn it up a lil bit? im trying to use my phone as an internet radio add-in for my car

[Guest Vincent227]

Hello,

I got my phone back form Acer, but Acer tells that my phone is working fine, my sd reader is tested by Acer.. so i don't no what the problem then is ?

Thanks,

Vincent

I know it is low but lounder than in original 2.1 bin ! That must be relative to an accoustic lib. I hope it will be fixed in finall bin release (even if i am sure that we will apply audio hack to improve sound quality).

Hi all

I have a Liquid A1 running 2.000.16_EMEA_GEN1, updated OTA from Acer. I've rooted it but otherwise it's vanilla. How do I go about installing LCR?

Btw the version number is confusing - LCR 1.6 makes me think of Donut, not Eclair :(

I've read that a million times, and it's not clear whether it's safe to go ahead and flash Acer_LiquidE_1.100.05_EMEA_GEN1 over any existing ROM (if that's what the instructions are saying, again, they're not very clear..). I just want to be sure before taking any risks!

[Guest jayziac]

It's safe, just make sure you don't have any power outages or disconnect the USB cable before it finishes. You can stop after flashing LiquidE_1.100.05_EMEA bin to use the stock 2.1 ROM, or continue to install malezRecovery and then flash LCR over it.

Thanks! I've managed to flash the stock 2.1 image which works well with some great new features, although the messaging app is slow as hell - it sits refreshing for several seconds before showing messages. So I'd like to install LCR to see if it improves matters.

Is the correct download LCR_1.6-signed.zip from the downloads page on Google code? (After installing malezrecovery)

[Guest HustlinDaily]

Yup that is correct.

Hey there, Just wanted wanted to thank you all for the great work and efforts being done to improve and optimize these roms. I have been using all ur releases and they were all perfect.

I only have one question about the 1.6 release, I installed it the day u released it and it has been working like a charm until 2 days ago. I start calling somebody, the phone works fine until the ringer starts to ring and the phone freezes, the ringer is ringing and i can hear it but the screen freezes, not input from the screen nor any of the buttons. I have to reset the phone using the reset button. It doesnt happen that much but its annoying (happened to me like 5 - 6 times).

Could u just tell me what to do, should i reinstall the ROM or is there any other way to get over this.

I don't know what to advice you. It could be due to an app you have installed and even to the baseband version. If you have any app (like a call recorder or id dipslay) that start when receiving a call, try to uninstall it. Try to reboot you phone frequently (once a day). These are just ideas has i have never encountered this issue since i have left the 0.08 bin file. Really hope this will help you and hope you will continue appreciating and suporting LCR.

Trust acer if you want. For me you have hardware problems. I have managed to restore the backup you had provided me, wiath the same software as you. Noone conplains about problems with recovery, only you. Change your sd card, reformat it, do a clean nandroid backup, restore it. Unfortunatly, we can't do no more for you.

please malez, check Liquid s stream dump.

It has a radio app in there (FC for me :( ), so maybe something good.

Also has newer app for Music & Acer contacts.

Please check!
