Just recieved 4.010.13_COM_GEN2 from .10 update here in the states 14mb download, seems to have done a app preinstall process again.
Yea I got it. Here's the update.

I flashed this over rooted 4.010.10_GEN2 with Villain Kernel and it kept root and everything, as it should.
Looks like it updates the Flexrom, gyroscope, and wifi. See updater script below.

I went and had mine search for it and it found and installed it.
Kept root and everything, as reported. Good stuff.
Any new feature ?

Can anyone assist re this question regarding the "4.010.13" update. I received it OTA on 27th July and installed it same evening. Installation went fine with no problems including the fact (I think it has been mentioned above) that I did not unroot my A500, and at the conclusion of the update I was still fully rooted.
Looking at "Settings > About tablet > Build number" it shows "Acer_A500_4.010.13_COM_GEN2" which is what I would have expected it to look like. However if I look, in text view, at the system file "Build.prop" the following is shown in the initial lines, I have highlighted in RED what I feel is suspect and cannot understand i.e. why is it showing "4.010.01" etc.etc.

Any help with sugestions re this will be gratefully appreciated - I accept the fact that I may be p****** into the wind on this and that the above script is as it should be.
Thanks. for some reason the OTA that I downloaded on the tab failed at every attempt, but your decrypted one went right in via recovery.

Everything is as it should be for instance, when i was on 1.141.07 my build.prop stated 1.141.01. In other words, that's normal, mine is the same way

Yes, it did modify the accelerometer's calibration, as well as update the flexrom and implement the wifi patch. There are several threads already about this update, with all this information, and in a few of them I discussed my findings in ripping apart the update.

I have this with 40.010.40
one thing I pointed out in the thread about the different naming conventions of the different codetrains is that Acer is very lazy when it comes to updating build.prop
You can edit the build.prop to show whatever build date you want....
No matter what rom I looked at I saw region US
Is this the latest build for retail U.S. devices or us there something newer that can be manually flashed? Thanks in advance for any useful info.

That is both unnecessary and ill advised.this is not laziness, but rather by design: it helps prevent fragmentation.maybe this can help explain:
As you may be aware, the purpose of a build.prop is to provide a version number so applications and such can keep track of compatibility. By keeping it as a single number for ask similar software versions, it helps prevent fragmentation.

No problem, figured it would be more noticed here from the 4G users. I did notice the layout difference as well. I like that its less cluttered and more organized... just my .02 anyway
Is there a zip that I can flash thru recovery? Or what's the easiest way to flash this. When I had an evo and amon ra I could upgrade the recovery thru a zip, is that possible?

This link takes you to the mod'd version. Do you have the link to the official version? If you are running this mod'd version, Rom Manager will not accept it as official and will want to install the official version. Rom Manager does not show 3.2.0.0 in its interface as of yet.
EDIT: Here is the link to the official Koush site. For our phone, 3.1.0.1 is the only release.
http://www.koushikdutta.com/2010/02/clockwork-recovery-image.html
I've never used ROM manager so I really can't comment on it "seeing" the recovery. Pretty sure the only thing modified is the colors, nothing more.

Colors and layout are different. Rom Manager is developed by Koush and works together with the recovery. So, if you do use rom manager, it does not recognise the mod'd version as official and you will not be able to do things like download roms and extras through Rom manager. .
No Biggie, just thought people should know before they download this and find out there rom manager does not function fully until they install the official clockwork recovery again.
ROM Manager seems to be working just fine for me

So, with this mod version installed, Rom Manager (by Clockwork) is not telling you that you have to install Clockwork Recovery to be able to perform that function?
Interesting, did that to me on the last version of the mod (3.1.0.1) Maybe they changed the mod to function with the Clockwork Rom Manager.
I will install and see.
EDIT: OK, seems to work fine with Rom Manager. The last Mod did not. I had to reinstall the official clockwork Recovery. Well That Just Shows Me, Hu. Sorry for the alarm. (the sky is falling, the sky is falling)
anyone try flashing anything? if a rom/kernel uses edify to define what phones it can be flashed on i know using the crespo recovery will block all but crespo flashes..

All 3.X recoveries are edify. Koush and most other devs have completely moved away from amend scripts for updates/flashable zips. amend was around since cupcake if I recall correctly.

thats from the updater script that cm7 uses, if when it does getprop it finds anything but the crespo4g, it will fail. flashing the crespo recovery could have undesired effects.
like i stated tho, only if the dev chose to use that feature
Is this strictly a crespo recovery? I was under the impression from the post that there were 2 different recoveries uploaded, one for the ns and one for the 4g. If you find out that this doesnt work I can edit the post title to state not to flash...
my apologies didnt know there was a 4g version, just thought everyone was going willy nilly with the nexus s version

I've got in my hands Acer Iconia A501 equipped with Honeycomb 3.2 which is supposed to be launched in following weeks.
I dumped the /system partition and uploaded for you, so that Iconia devs can make a use of it.
None of common root expolits seems to work for me, including Iconia A100 HC 3.2 method, so I can't upload boot.img.

Thanks for your work! I see in another thread that Acer_A500_4.017.07 is still HC3.1. So, could you confirm that 4.015.15 is HC3.2? Seems that the naming is strange.
Acer was never good in naming their software.

How can i flash this?? I have the dump and the boot image

Well i will share my knowladge to you people, two years of learning stuff about android....
This is only guide for porting nexus s roms to sgs phones, you cannot use this guide to port other rom to other device, well you can but dosnt ensurance that it will work.
If this guide dont help you (0,01 possibilities) LOGCAT YOUR BUILD!! I WILL TRY TO HELP
Tools needed /by saranhai/:
7zip (alternative to winrar, doesn't matter which you choose to use)
Notepad++ (highly recommend if you're on windows)
Android SDK/ADB (MUST HAVE, for troubleshooting and such)
dsixda kitchen (could come in handy)
First to port an ics rom you need winrar.
This are the steps:
grab an ics rom like cm9 or aokp to take the libs and hw folders
Never unzip the rom.
1-from cm9/aokp copy all outside system, i mean boot.img mtd etc..... and past it over the rom you are porting (nexus s rom)
2-enter system/app and remove torch.apk, crespoparts.apk and replace camera.apk with aokp camera.
3-enter system bin and replace this files with aokp/cm9 ones
*dhcpcd
*bluetoothd
*vold
*wpa_client
*wpa_supplicant
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4-enter system etc and replace this files with aokp/cm9 ones
*bluetooth folder
*dhcpcd folder
*Apnconf.xml
*wifi
*vold.fstab
*vold.conf

Click to collapse
5-Then we go to the libs, enter system/lib and replace:
*HW folders
*modules folders
*egl folders
*libril.so
*libsec-ril.so
*libreference-ril.so
*libsec-ril-client.so
*libbluedroid.so
*libbluetooth.so
*libbluetoothhd.so
*lib_cameraclient.so
*libcameraservice.so
*libhardware_legncy.so (very important to wifi to work) hell this caused me problems
*libEGL
*libgles (the 3 files)

--------------replace usr and vendor folders-------------------
And last edit build.prop, well first check if it boots then you change this and add this.
edit this:
ro.product.model=SGH-I897
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=SGH-I897
ro.product.device=SGH-I897
ADD THIS TO SIGNAL TO WORK!!
additional build propieties
ro.telephony.ril_class=SamsungRIL
ro.telephony.ril.v3

ADVANCED USERS ONLY (dont ask me how) :
for working external sd (emcc) you need to decompile/recompile framework-res.apk
you need to change this:

I was actually trying to get cyberGR working, the updater.script is different from normal. May be not having these could be the issue. Just a guess though

if you get it to boot, it would be awsome, keep the good work, i think that might be the reason.

You mean it is possible to port the PureXperia rom? If yes, i will give it a try
The egl and gles are related to gpu rendering. Also, this guide looks very familiar...

Hey guys I have a working Xperia ROM. I wasn't ever supposed to release it because the other DEV I worked with asked me not to. But I will PM you the link if you want it. It is GB but it boots and everything.

The directions are not very clear.
grab an ics rom like cm9 or aokp to take the libs and hw folders
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Does this mean Extract /system/lib/HW folder and all files under /system/lib from the Captivate ICS cm9/AOKP and put into the Nexus S rom.zip?
2-enter system/app and remove torch.apk, crespoparts.apk and replace camera.apk with aokp camera.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This seems very easy, remove the listed files from the Nexus S rom.zip and add the Camera.apk from the Captivate cm9/AOKP rom.zip
Steps 3,4,5 seems very easy also, take listed files from the Captivate cm9/AOKP rom.zip and move them into the Nexus S rom.zip. Then we take /system/usr and /system/vendor from the Captivate cm9/AOKP rom.zip and move to the Nexus S rom.zip.
Last is editing the build.prop file.
Advanced step, I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511730 which could mean editing the storage_xml will be easier.
Is that about everything needed?

not extract hw and modules and egl just replace the folders....
and thats all..
Just flash in recovery, MOUNT SYSTEM before doing it!
This is not the project butter, more like a package of tweaks that will smooth the ui and some programs
I noticed a huge improvement in system ui as in application! fluidity is definitely better!

I will port it to Mlora... thanks
Sent from my U8800 using xda app-developers app
I just flashed it on Mlora, seems that works.
I have flashed it to MIUI V4 but the build.prop changes didn't copied and the other files too. I did it manually and I think I have quite worse performance than before
cheers
For me using Aurora_5.0_u9 works like a charm, Facebook and other apps running a lot smother..

Can you confirm that it is flashed correctly and it is not a placebo?
Can you please check these 2 things:
1. is the last line of the /system/build.prop file the following
ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1
2. do you have an adreno_config.txt file inside /system/etc?
thank you!
Yes, i have the txt file. You have to mount system in order to be correctly patched.
See the original post for more details.

I'm testing this, and it really seems to make the UI smoother. There's only one small mistake after installing it, it creates an aditional build.prop file with it's contents being only "/n". It can safely be deleted.

Yes. This doesn't include init.d scripts, those are what slows down boot speed.
I haven't tried this but the correct line on the updater script in order for this to work is
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12", "/system");
or this
Code:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
rest is plain placebo

Other way to install is just to mount /system in CWM before flashing the zip (tested by me )
I'm having problems with some apps, after flashed project butter. I'm using go SMS pro(not the latest, but 4.30 version) which doesn't work any more. I have a lot of apps(~200), and except go sms I faced this problem at all -made by me- apps, which are some tutorial apps and 5 small apps. All of them are 2.2+ and work fine on 2.2, 2.3 and ICS rom(I've test them). The problem seems to be the same in all apps I tested. Appears only a black screen, and seems that something works(because If I tap on the screen I can hear the sound which indicates that something pressed), but nothing change visually.
So, I'm thinking that is some graphics problem which affects apps compiled on JB previous android platform(one of my apps is compiled with android 4.0 platform).
I don't care for my home made apps, because I can try to recompile them, but I want to keep using GO SMS pro 4.30 version, which has the offline SMS backup future.
Can you figure out what cause this problem?
Can this be installed in Elora 1.11.09? Or is this ROM already optimized/'butterrized'? :silly:
Many of my applications are built for ics, have you mount system before flash the zip? I have encountered some issues like those when I first flash the zip file and forgot to mount system..

Didn't need to mount system.

I didn't see any changes in build.prop nor the adreno file in /system/etc, therefore I decided to flash the zip again, now with the system mounted.
Now I felt good differences in smoothness and apps looks like load faster but lost wifi completely.
Tried several reboots but no wifi.
Had to restore a backup. What can it be?
This isn't nowhere near to Project Butter. All this does is disabling the software rendering path via renaming the libGLES_Android.so file + some build.prop tweaks.
It should be just called as an another tweak package.. Since it's not project butter

Project Butter is a feature in Jelly Bean. This is just a package of tweaks, which are not relevant to Project Butter at all. It requires a lot of library changes to be enabled in ICS, this has no modified libs, it just disables one and edits build.prop.
Hey together,
is there any chance to exclude single apps from the upgrade/installation process when flashing a new rom (nightlies)?
There's a bunch of apps I don't need or want, e.g. those "beauties" like phase beam, black hole, etc.
Maybe it can be done through a script in /system/addon.d or or a new zip in OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate?
Thanks in advance,

you can freeze them and they will still be frozen after upgrade.

Yep, this can be done easily.
Code:
ui_print("Mounting system partition");
ifelse(!is_mounted("/system"), run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system"));
ifelse(!is_mounted("/system"), abort("Failed to mount /system"));
delete("/path/to/app");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");

I'd grab a recent one out of OmniROM. Or you could try this update-binary (from http://teamw.in/project/twrp2 )

Yes, with an addon.d script. I don't feel like making one right now, because that syntax gives me a headache. But you should be able to look at others, (like Chainfire's su one), and see what it does and how it deletes files. After that, you could puzzle it out yourself with some time.

Yep, I already took a sample from someone's guide about creating zips.

Why? Free space in /system has no benefits, and none of those apps autostart, so you gain nothing by removing them.

Because almost daily backing up and flashing between ROMs needs less time, TitaniumBackup's list of installed apps is shorter and some of the apps I remove have some background services running which I don't want.
