So after looking through different builds and moving files around within the builds, I've found that the key to the high IO which gives higher Quadrant scores is the
INITRD file in every build and some updated files. They're different, i've removed the file from one of the builds and have tested it on MDJ's HD builds and Froyo vanilla builds, and for me it works like a charm. Here's What i've done;
Find your build you want to update.
Install your build (or if you already have one booted you're going to use move on...)
unzip, and Place the contents of the zip file in your android folder ( with haret and CLRCAD ) overwrite the old one.
Once the android files are placed, take files on sdcard root, and using Root file explorer, or adb, push the files or copy the files to the following folders;
busybox > system/bin
e2fsck > system/bin
busybox > system/xbin
e2fsck > system/xbin
01data2ext > system/etc/intr.d
Reboot phone and launch android, let it load, then test your quadrants.
I'm not a rom cook, nor a dev, just a Android fan with a lot of time on my hands and wanting to make the IO higher on each build i use.
So credits on this goes to the INITRD file and rom files of the build i'm using which is from, and the idea and research for the Data2SD
If i've missed cited your name, just let me know and i'll add it...

thanks, im trying this now and reporting back
EDIT: does not boot,
as i do that the root folder and the update folder disappear.. (stuck at HTC screen)
same with the older one..
EDIT: im gunna upload my initrd.gz if that helps
here is the attached initrd.gz
doesnt boot for me either with MDJ 7.9
i've updated it with some additions, worked on MDJ for me... test let me know how it goes
where is the zimage taken from? which build?
should be in dev
Installed this on MDJ Revolution HD v.1.2 running 7.9HD Kernel.
Followed the instructions and ran a benchmark
2249
Cpu: 4985
Mem: 1127
IO 4426
2D: 285
3D: 422
Very nice however.
Can't overclock my phone. No longer rooted.
So impressive as it got the above running at 998Mhz.
Would like to see this as an option for overclocked kernels.
Also killed the wireless.
Do you have any more source info on this? Other threads?
Can't we use that with hastarins kernels?
TOPAZ
is this possible for XDANDROID/NEOPEEK users?

currently this does have issues with overclocked kernels...
the wifi issue has to do with your wifi being turned on before you copy and reboot the files...
at the moment i've only tested this with MDJ kernels... so i'm unsure if it works for hastarine
all these issues are being worked on, thanks for your patients...

Any visibility of negative impacts?
From what I have read it performs Async file transfers. Eg write back to a degree. Corruption etc?

These files are based off of the DHD roms, also can be used with most sense roms, i've not tried it with Hastarine kernel based roms, only MDJ

I'm unsure of any negative impacts, and as far as corruption, its using file systems that are currently being ran in stable roms.
MDJ Rev 1.7
Will summarize my findings.
Applied the update on MDJ Rev 1.7 DHD Rom. Initially running MDJ Kernel 8.0
Qualcom Scores
TOTAL:1509
CPU: 4346
MEM: 1113
I/O: 1473
2D: 232
3D: 382
Applied the update and got the following
TOTAL: 2249
CPU: 4985
MEM: 1127
I/O: 4426
2D: 285
3D: 422
Significant performance improvement. Even on the CPU which was have some strong ties to the disk.
PRO's
Sense is noticeably faster. Experience is a lot snappier.
Web Browsing rocks. Maps and web surfing are at almost desktop speeds.
CON's
Can't do a hot reboot.
Camera no go
Wireless also broken. Tried twice after prev post.
Lost root access
No overclock.
This is def promising however have gone back to standard as too much loss of functionality.
javolin13, Let me know if I can be of further assistance.
As a further tweak I replaced the updated kernel with the MDJ 8.0
Got this
TOTAL: 1960
CPU: 4393
MEM: 1094
I/O: 3730
2D: 188
3D: 396
However wireless was still broken and didn't test other things.
Different approach
Just applied the Init.gz and the update folder.
Left the MDJ 8 kernel as is. Wireless now working but still no camera or hot restart.
Perm still really good.
sorry for the noob question, isn't there a way to include this on standard roms to make the process easier?
everything works besides camera..
since the CBW's Official froyo doesn't solve
-TV out (3.5mm A/V analog ) function,
-media button not works
-radio volume issue
-app2ext
i Recommend you try the WanHu's rom
-this rom is base on official Korean Froyo and Dexter's
-the rom is make by a Chinese Developer with the ID call wanhu (万户)
I personally think that this ROM is best for me
-if you want to use TV OUT over 3.5mm jack ,it requires the stock 2.1 south east Asia or Singapore version (STR_U2_01.18.2_UCASHLSTABB1B4DEMA033.0R_USASHLSTBSTARSG_P016_A013_HWp3_1FF.sbf) installed first ,.other 2.1 sbf don't work For 3.5mm TV-out ,
- Use the Milestone Overclock version 1.4.2 it works stable at 900 Mhz , 59 Vsel
-i notice that Old market can't update ,one of the reason (Maybe) is when you type your google account after you finished type your password don't hurry to press the next button yet...see what's change with your user name ? my situration is everytime i finished typing pw..my user name has add a "g" letter..very wired but after recorrect the username you can run the market and update..
-swap kernel supported i can use fastboot to boot fj's kernel. but sometime get reboot by itself..maybe bcoz of my class2 16 g sd card problem..coz i test with my 8G C4 card..it never happened
-this rom is also good for those who want to use Simplified Chinese in language ,coz most of the roms don't have that..only traditional..
-this rom also good at CDMA network SMS sending, many roms have this problem ,at least is China .you send English or Chinese SMS to a CDMA handset user,the get symbols like this is message ...#^@%^&%$&#$..but with Wanhu's rom you don't have to worry about it ..

pls feel free to correct me if anything wrong...and thank Wanhu for making this rom
Oh, hell yes! Excellent! I've been thinking lately that Dexter made a wrong turn when he gave up on the Korean ROM and started porting everything from the A853. My stupid thanks button has me locked out from yesterday. I'll be back in 24hrs to click your buttons!
Haptic feedback feels like 2.1's.
FM Radio works.
Media key works.
Magnifier during cursor positioning works.
But, haven't figured out how to change the keyboard back to qwerty yet. Definitely the right foundation.
[oops this one was wrong thread]
I've just loaded this ROM. Hmmmm.....
Okay, how do we combine the two, this one with Cincinnati Bell's?
I think we may have a winner if we do!
Wow! Thanks for this great ROM! It still has a few bugs, but it's lightning fast and superb to work with! I haven't even overclocked it but it's way faster than MIUI overclocked! Thank you so much for this ROM WanHu!

The new update seems to eliminate the software keys; is there a way to reenable them?
Don t agree just wipe everything and restore user app with Tb. Works fine however i think it s a bad idea do such about system/data.

If you haven't already done that, update your TB, the last version works on ICS.
I've been really enjoying this build. Thanks alot for the whole team!
UI runs very smooth and basicly no log at all.
Almost everything works better compared to the orginal 2.3.3 stock rom I used before.
Few things I noticed, the battery life seems to be somewhat worse.
Also a question about the multitasking in ICS. I cant find a way to open the thumbnails? Long pressing home doesnt seem to work and since theres no software based keys (which I think is a good thing) I'm not sure what to do.
Tab P1000 and I'm using the latest kerned (30.1) with bt fix and rom.

Hi all, this thread is a good idea, it mostly works on the galaxy s 2 cm9 forum but their are still idiots posting in the development area. Codeworx (the developer on s2 cm9 thread) has really bought into it and tells people to post in the discussion thread if they post noob stuff in the dev thread. If the devs here (cdesai, humberOS etc) buy into this discussion thread then maybe more people will use it
Anyways, i tried changing lcd density to 120 to check out more tablet apps on the market but when I do the keyboard zooms and I can only see half of it, so I can't type properly... Any ideas?

I know that I used the honeycomb alpha at 120 and liked it that small. But my question isn't about the best density to have, it's about the keyboard at 120 and if anyone knows how to fix it or has any suggestions.
This is my GalaxyTab. There are many like it but this one is mine.
If, by some kind of freak occurrence I helped you, please hit THANKS!
my keyboard work fine on 120 check the attachment
It would be awsome if there is such way to force apps to start in tablet UI with 160 LCD density coz 120 is very small for 7" displays
CM9 on P1000
Hey guys, I tried to flash the latest ICS build for the P1000, but my tablet wont leave the start up screen...
I downloaded both files, replaced the kernel part of the zip with the one specific for the P1000, wiped cache, davik and reset user settings.
Then I flashed the zip file, but at reboot it won't leave the start up screen.
Any idea on what I may have done wrong?
Thanks!
So guys,I wanted a long time ago,in a rom far far away ( ) to change my LCD density,because I found it very cool to make my screen seem like a higher resolution one.Also,it's like it grows in size,because more things fit in the same physical space.
However,in Samsung roms(I think only the HyperDroid rom doesn't have this problem,without me being 100% sure) problems can arise when changing DPI in the build.prop .One problem was that the camera was FCing,other problems included incompatibilities with the market etc.My deterrent to lower my DPI was the non-functioning camera.
Anyway,I visited the Desire HD forums 3 days ago,and I found something rather interesting in the IceColdSandwich rom thread.So,for this one all credit goes to LordClockan(Rom and kerned developer for the Desire HD) and alienmind(He and LordClockan are on the same team,or kind of,I don't exactly know),who found out about this(Or at least that's where I heard it from).
So,to change your dpi you can go to /data/local.prop (if the file isn't there just create it with root explorer) and write this line: qemu.sf.lcd_density=xxx,where "xxx" is whatever value you want.
So,while this isn't the best superduperwow tweak ever,and while some may already know it,it is useful after all,so I thought of sharing it with you guys.
Hi,
this solution isn't working for me :-( Tried on the latest leaked ICS 4.0.3. LPH original Samsung and Pure ICS Special edition 6.1 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1451346. Both with the same result. Nothing happened. DPI is still 240. Checked several times - name and location of local.prop file and corectness of the string qemu.sf.lcd_density=xxx (xxx is 170 in my case) Any advices, pls?

First,I think it has to have the right permissions.Dunno which it needs exactly,but try chmod 777.Also,the dpi value must be a multiple of 8,so try 168 or 176 if you want to be close to 160.Try these and report back.
Meanwhile,I'm wondering why the thread has a 1 star rating.It's not anything spectacular,but wtf?Anyway,I ain't here for being congratulated,so be it.
EDIT:Bear in mind that nothing will change in your build.prop .There,it'll still show 240.You will just see the difference.

Thanks for advices. I did everything as you said. Changed value to 176. Check premission - granted 777. The value 240 checked in the build.prop Without success It seems that system ingore this file completely. Whatever is in local.prop file, DPI is still 240
It was the same yesterday when my S2 was running on latest beta leak LPH and the same behaviour with today's official ICS from Smamsung LPQ.
Use this to ask about your problems with this roms, apps that don't work, battery problems, wifi problems... anything that's not related directly to development

Thank's
It seems that you have an invalid Mac address. try fix permissions with CWM.
if does not work, override mac address doing this:
-Install Terminal Emulator from Market.(with data or via PC)
-Run terminal and enter these commands and where is "11:22:33:44:55:66" you should place your original mac address(you can see your mac address printed on a sticker under the battery.)
su
setprop persist.sys.wifimac mac_param=11:22:33:44:55:66
reboot and proof it
Aurora 2.0.4
Kernel:3.0.8
Wipes:all
Bug:camera!!!the first foto is always ok.all the others no "a half foto green",sometimes like a puzzle!!!
Sorry for my poor engklish

Bug:Audiobook Player 2 not skipping to next track.
When I listen to audiobooks with Audiobook Player 2 it stops playing after every file if nothing else is going on with the phone(screen off). It is enough to press vol buttons or power button, then it starts with next file.
If I leave screen on, charger connected or have any other app in background doing something(for example downloading something with Opera), it skips automatically to the next file like it should.
It is almost as the phone enters some kind of sleep mode so it doesn't change track.
I have used this app with all other roms without problems. I have tried other audiobook players but this is by far the best that is why it is bugging me.
Can someone help? Could someone atleast try if the same thing happen to you? It is a free app.
Link to app: Audiobook Player 2
Edit: This problem has been atleast with last 5-6 versions of Aurora, since the earlier audio skipping track issue, but this is not the same problem.
For fellow Saunalahti users (and possible others in similar situation), here is a modified framework.jar (for Dzo's Aurora ROM versions 2.03_test and 2.04). It makes the phone stop thinking it's roaming when connected to an operator in the same country (operator with the same MCC to be exact). So, no more need to enable data roaming to use it at home network.
The concept is from here, although details differed a bit.
I take no responsibility for anything, and using this might incur costs in some countries (if an operator with the same MCC as your's allows data roaming for extra cost, or if I've f****d up something). With Saunalahti in Finland this works for me, and I did test it with a foreign SIM card and it identified roaming correctly. However, the risk will always be your own if you choose to use this.

I can confirm the camera issues. It's not always, but sometimes the photos get cropped, greened, pinked, doubled, and happened to me the issue you've reported too.
Using latest aurora and latest kernel (the one with some usb changes).
I'm not sure if this is the proper thread for this question so feel free to delete or move it to the proper place.
I was wondering what the downgrade procedure is. I'd like to go back to one of the official GB roms. Do I just follow the standard procedure as when upgrading an official ROM?

It seems to me some kind of incompatibility with ics. Try to contact audiobook's dev.

This thread is intended to talk about the well-known ICS ROM for ours u8800 made by Dzo, the Aurora ICS
Use this to ask about your problems with this roms, apps that don't work, battery problems, wifi problems... anything that's not related directly to development
For better understanding, please state:
kernel version
aurora version
which wipes used
come from another rom?
IMEI / MAC address status
Helping is easier when we know what you did to your phone.
Hope everyone gets your problems solved.

IMEI is ok?
wifi new driver or old driver?
