[Q] Will this work for our WF?

Found this thread on the HTC Hero section for it's open GL will this work for our wildfire?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=899801

Yea I flashed it, noticed an improvement in playing angry birds...i think.

Will it work on cm7 nightlies kevin?

Yeah
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App

Yes it works with just about every ROM, but, in my view, I can't see any benefit. (I dont play Angry Birds, and, the rest of the games and LWP's don't show any benefit).

How do you do this?
Just flash it like a rom?

Well, that's what I initially did. Flash the ZIP in Post #49 in that thread. But, on reading that complete thread, I guess you have to edit the build.prop file in /system (Using Root Explorer / ADB Push Pull).
However, this is where I cant get it to work. WHenever I add the 2 lines in Root Explorer and Save Changes, the phone reboots. If I use ADB, even after pushing, when I check the same file using build.prop, no changes are visible, (The opengles.version automatically reverts back to 65536 and the line which enabled hardware acceleration of the UI is gone) and, ASI only shows OpenGL 1.0 due to this
Well, I have no idea what I am doing wrong, will try it out again and see..

I'm a newb with this.
Could someone possibly make a bit more explained guide?

Very basic guide:
* Get Root Explorer or any other file manager that can show the root folders
* Open Root Explorer, change permissions on top to R/W (Be very careful after that. Dont delete anything!)
* Locate the file build.prop under /system
* Long Press the file, Select Edit with Text Editor
* Updated: (ADB Commands Copy - Pasted from another post by kevin2516. Thanks mate )
*Make sure ADB is installed on your system and it is working. There are many guides available to install ADB, so I wont be going into that.
*Start Command Prompt (cmd), Browse to your "Tools" folder into your SDK
*Use the ADB Pull Command adb pull /system/build.prop
*This will now be saved to your tools folder. Edit is using Wordpad / Notepad++ (Not Notepad) as follows:
*Locate a line which starts with dalvik. (The first one, there are 3 of them)
Add the following 2 lines before that:
debug.sf.hw=1
ro.opengles.version=65537
* Save it.
* Push it back to System using the ADB Push Command: adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
* Reboot ADB using the adb reboot command
* Then, grab the Flashable Zip in that thread from Post #48
* Flash it as normal
Done.
Check whether it is implemented or not by going to Android System Info > System Tab > OpenGL. Here, there are 2 OpenGL versions. The first line should say 1.1, and the second should say OpenGL 1.0 ES.

With S-On you cannot change the systemfile directly I think. Thats the reason why your system not keep the change. I have write by myself a little install zip and flash it with nandroid and it works. the zip only works with wildpuzzlerom v0.8 and you can find in the thread for wpr0.8.

Well, I took your flashable ZIP, removed the build.prop it contained, and replaced it with the build.prop of CM7 Nightly 2. Then, I tried flashing it, still no change.
Now, I have no idea whether I am 'allowed' to change flashable ZIP's like that or not, but, from what it is looking like, I am still unable to get this working on CM7NB2. I'll probably try making a flashable ZIP from scratch later as I get time.

If it's simple enough, it would be nice if you could tell how to do a flashable zip (or yourself make a one suitable for CM6/7 ). I just want to test these libraries on CM7, any help is appreciated
Don't expect nothing special, I'm not a dev!

Where can i find FLashable zip? I don't understand where is post #48
Even if i find, i have read, that it's not working? Or working?

You can find the OpenGLES 1.1 Flashable ZIP in Post #48 of this thread:

I have updated my post since Root Explorer method doesnt work (No S-OFF).

You wrote : last edit: I didn't notice any difference, much like the test ran above. I'm going to revert until more knowledgeable people look at this.
if it is like you saying, then i dont have point to that **** too.
i think devs who makes this rom should instal in rom everything what can increase perfomance. so im waiting for the rom with all those things instaled.
will it happen someday?:/

Which is exactly what I said in the CM7 thread. No one here has till date, found verifiable gains, with using OpenGL on the Wildfire. Everyone reports the same thing, that there is no or absolutely negligible (Which I think is just a mind thing) change in gaming / intensive applications performance.
If you are looking for ROM's wit inbuilt OpenGLES Support, WildPuzzle has a flashable ZIP, and DS and DK Roms provides it inbuilt in its latest version. For the others, the manual method has to be followed.

[Q] Customizing boot logo - MIUI 2.1.13?

I would like to change the boot logo [red M] @ start up.
I'm running MIUI 2.1.13...
I've found a couple of tools that look promising - debraks 'Splash Tools' & Rom Toolbox... seems like neither was designed for defy - but some comments around suggest that they would work...
There's also a guide out there for CM7... I'm a bit reluctant considering I'm on MIUI.
Anyone got a tried & tested procedure to change the red M on a defy running MIUI? + some images to use that aren't CM7 branded? ^^
T.I.A

it could work well whichever rom u are using.

No idea if that works with MIUI but I used "Boot Logo Replacer RC4" from the market and that worked in most cases on Barebones (Froyo). You only need root for that.

tried d/l on my lappy ^^ Avast gave about 20 lines for Virus intrusion!?
Prob false positive... but

The tool is only to create a *.bin from a bitmap picture. You don't need it, if you already have a .bin-file.
Then you only need root on your device and then follow the instructions with the dd-command. But be careful to have correct spelling and case, cause otherwise you could overwrite important files!
So basically it's the following, assuming you have a logo called "mylogo.bin"
1. copy mylogo.bin into root of your SD-card
2. Run the terminal and type the following:
Code:
su
enter and confirm root permissions, then
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/mylogo.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p10
enter, then reboot.
Edit: By the way, nothing suspicous about the tool found. See https://www.virustotal.com/file/270...84b13da38d9b7ceae30678d22c4c55a52cc/analysis/

im using miui 1.12.16 pikachu edition. its a full wipe and changes everything including the boot logo. apparently its a german rom but works very well in the uk

[ROM][KANG] CherryKANG 0.9.4 1512max 384min [CM9] synced [11/04] Now supports goo.im!

Hi guys..
I just want to say thanks to the cm team for bringing ics to our touchpads. None of the work in this rom is my own.. I have just used the great tutorials and stuff I've picked up before to compile this. All credit to everyone who put work into this!
This rom includes cherry-picks from http://review.cyanogenmod.com such as the fixes below
A wifi fix -- review.cyanogenmod.com (Although some people are reporting wifi issues still. I recommend a full wipe)
I have also compiled my own kernel into this.. which I set the default CPU speed to 1.5ghz and the default governor to ondemand. I also added HAVS support. Although I don't know if we really need it on a tab. Maybe it will help slightly with battery life?
These are settings that I like and normally run. So don't flame me!
I am looking for pointers too.. for what to do next. I would like to add the webOS style recent apps mod next. Also ROMControl would be nice from here .. some pointers on how to include would be helpful. Any help greatly appreciated
So.. please remember.. I made this for myself... to teach me something.. someone just said I should post it!All credit goes to the people that contribute to cyanogenmod.
Cheers and enjoy

REMEMBER ... This is now 120 dpi. You will either need to download LCD Density Pro from the market, or see below for a free alternative!
Posted by Hockey4life0099 thanks!
or you can use the free version (or dpi changer) to modify the dpi back to 160
---------- Post added at 02:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:03 AM ----------
I wrote this. It looks more complicated than it is cause i broke it down step by step. Ignore my cracked out numbering scheme, i didnt feel like shifting all the numbers down when i added more info.
1. If you dont already have it, download es file explorer
1b. go to the application settings and clear the data for the market
1c. download dpi changer and change dpi to 135(dont reboot yet)
2. go into the options on there and check the root explorer option and the mount option
3. download to TP
http://www.sundergaming.com/downloads/tabletmarketdpiunlocked.apk
4. rename the file Vending.apk
5. long press to copy the file (in ES file explorer)
6. click the star in top right corner (favorites)
7. Choose the phone (/)
8. navigate to system/app
9. paste the app
10. find the app in there called marketupdater.apk or something similar and rename it marketupdater.apk.bak
11. reboot
12. see if you can download an app like flash player. If you cant go to next step
12b. get back to system/app and click the Vending.apk and let it install.
You can mess around with the dpi if you want, but also remember that if the text is small, you can change the default text size in the settings.
The issue i encountered with this method is sometimes the fix stops working, but all you need to do to get the apps to download once again is clear your market data in the application settings. It is obviously much easier to download the app mentioned in the op, but this is for the cheapskates. your only other option is download dpi changer and just switch the dpi back to 160. That is painless but you loose out on some app compatibility and some screen real estate. I myself change the dpi to 138 and change the font size to large. Everything seems to be perfect. Best balance out there IMO.

Do not install CM9 over CM7. Some have gotten away with it and others like yourself run into trouble. Do a clean install, that means running ACMEUninstaller. Here are some instructions I created just for an occasion such as this:
Since the release of CM9, it has become abundantly clear to me that one
needs to do a clean install of the rom to avoid all the little
nagging issues that so many folks are reporting. Whether you are
installing for the first time, upgrading from CM7 or installing
an update of CM9, one really needs to do a clean install.
Since the advent of the official CM9 nightlies, installing
the rom and the Gapps files via CWM seems to be much more
reliable. You still need to wipe the cache and Dalvik cache
before you reboot after installing any rom. If you run into
trouble after an install via CWM, then read on.
Those who know how to do it otherwise and are comfortable with that
feel free to deviate from this document.
For first time installers, you can skip this part. First thing
you need to do is a nandroid backup of your current install and
copy it over to your PC for safe keeping. Next you should backup
your apps using either Titanium Backup or My Backup Root. This will
allow you to restore all your apps after you are done with this
update. If the install goes South, you can always restore your
nandroid backup.
For the first time installers, if you have not already prepared
your PC for this project, you need to download the following:
1. ACMEInstaller2
2. ACMEUninstaller
3. Moboot 0.3.5.zip
4. ClockworkMod.zip(CWM)
5. update-cm-9.0.0-RC0-Touchpad-alpha2-fullofbugs.zip
6. UniversalNovacomInstaller.jar
7. The latest Gapps.zip
The ACME files, Moboot, CWM and the Alpha2.zip can all be found
on the OP for Alpha2 at:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/18843-releasealpha2-cyanogenmod-9-touchpad/
The universal novacom installer and Gapps files can be found by doing a Google
search on the names above and you will find the download page. I found
the novacom installer here:
http://universal-novacom-installer.googlecode.com/files/UniversalNovacomInstaller.jar
You should download the latest Gapps.zip which
the last time I checked at the link below was 20120317:
http://wiki.rootzwiki.com/Google_Apps
First thing, open the run box on your PC and browse to the novacomInstaller
file. This is a Java executable, so treat it just like any .exe file.
However, since it does not end in .exe, when you browse to find it,
you will have to tell the browser to show "All Files." Once it is in
the run box, click on OK and the Novacomd drivers will be installed,
the Palm,inc folder will be created and the novacom.exe will be placed
in that folder. Next if the ACME files you downloaded are zips, unzip
them both into the Palm, Inc folder which you will find in the Program
files folder. If not zipped, copy both into the Palm, Inc folder. Now
your PC is prepared for installing CM9, so everything applies to first
installers and upgraders from this point forward.
First timers boot into WebOS, upgraders can do the same or boot into
your current install of Android. Connect your TouchPad to your PC
with the usb cable and open Windows Explorer on your PC. You should
see either the TouchPad as a drive, or cm_tenderloin if you are already
running a version of CM9. If you have not already created a cminstall
folder on your TouchPad do so now. Also create a folder named ICS
Install.
Next you need to copy Moboot 0.3.5 and ClockworkMod(CWM) into the
cminstall folder on your TouchPad. Now copy the rom.zip and the
Gapps.zip file into the folder you created named ICS Install. It's up
to you which rom and Gapps file you use if you are installing something
different from what is listed above. If you are copying files to the
Touchpad drive, you now need to right click the drive letter and eject
the drive when you are done. If you are copying files to cm_tenderloin,
you can just close Windows Explorer and both of you disconnect the usb cable.
Upgraders, now you need to run ACMEUninstaller and when it is done, your
TouchPad will reboot back into WebOS. Now both of you need to reboot while
holding down up volume to put the TouchPad into WebOS recovery or bootie
mode. You will know you succeeded if you see a large white usb symbol.
Now plug the usb cable back in and you should hear the PC beep indicating
the TouchPad is connected. You will not be able to see the TouchPad in
Windows Explorer, so don't try. On your PC click "RUN" and type in CMD.
This opens the command window. First timers type in the following in the
command window:
cd/ and press enter. You will see C:\
Now type cd program files and press enter. You will see C:\program files
Now type cd Palm, Inc and press enter. You will see C:\ program files\Palm, Inc
Upgraders, your novacom.exe may be in a different folder, so go browse to that folder.
Both of you enter novacom boot mem:// < ACMEInstaller2 in the command window and
hit enter. After a few seconds, you should see what is fondly called the "Double Penguin" on
the Touchpad. When the install is done, the TouchPad will boot to Moboot. Tap
the volume on the TouchPad to stop the 5 second countdown if you see one. Now
select CWM using the Home button, then Install zip file from SD card and use the
volume rocker to move down to the ICS Install folder. Select that and move to the
Alpha2.zip and select that. Start the install. When it is done, use the go back
selection to go back to the main CWM screen and select reboot.
Once Android is booted up(be patient, it takes a couple of minutes the first time),
play around with the browser, set up wifi, just to make sure your install was
successful. Now reboot back to CWM and do the same procedure to install the Gapps.zip
you copied to the ICS Install folder earlier. You're done with a clean install.
Upgraders, you know what to do, first timers, I hope you have friend around to show
you the ropes or you own an Android phone and already know the ropes. Good Luck!
P.S. I strongly suggest you make a nandroid backup of your new installation right now.
First timers, one makes a nandroid backup using CWM. Boot to CWM, select "Backup and
Restore" and select "Backup".

[RECOVERY][CWM] ClockworkMod v6.0.1.4 v1 | custom extras menu (10/12/12)

This is a custom version of clockworkmod 6.0.1.4 (latest version available). See the 2nd post for information on what is in the extras menu.
To install:
- download these 2 files -----> uImage.CWM6 & touchpad_recovery_extras.zip
- boot into your current clockworkmod and mount /boot and /sdcard
- plug into your computer and run these commands
Code:
cd {location of folder where 2 files you just downloaded are}
adb push uImage.CWM6 /boot/uImage.CWM6
adb push touchpad_recovery_extras.zip /sdcard/touchpad_recovery_extras.zip
- go to install zip and choose the touchpad_recovery_extras.zip from your sdcard
- reboot and you will see an option in moboot for CWM6
Notes: The icons on the bottom of the recovery are placeholders for when i get the touchscreen working. I'm working on making this a touch recovery like the ones in my signature.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

Whats in the extras menu?
- enable/disable one confirm (this makes it so you only have to scroll through one confirm selection when installing something instead of having to go through 10 of them to click yes)
- hide/show backup & restore progress (this makes it so the progress bar when you backup/restore doesnt show up and makes backups/restores a bit faster since it doesnt have to show you the progress and files its backing up)
- aroma file manager (file explorer - to configure properly: when opened the first time select "no" to use alternative touch. then press the back key or enter key to get past the dot part. that works best for me)
create custom zip (this will create a custom rom from the currently installed files you have on your phone. it takes your /system partition and /boot files and makes them into a zip file ready to be flashed. the end product will be in /sdcard/clockworkmod/zips/{DATE}. with date being a timestamp of the time it was created. be sure to run a fix_permissions after installing the zip too just in case. DO NOT DELETE THE FOLDER /sdcard/clockworkmod/zips/files
choose custom openrecoveryscript (read THIS)
- recovery info (shows the version of recovery and the build date)

hi, didn't work for me is saying "no space left on device"

Yeah I should have explained that more. You can only have space for 2 recoveries. You can adb pull the original clockworkmod off and save it and push the cwm6

hey sk8erwitskil,
what are the steps to boot into CWM6 from goo.manager?
it only kicks me into moboot, counting down to boot moboot.default

You have to edit android.default.recovery to read CWM6 I don't think ES file explorer allows you to do it but ROM Toolbox pro (free version) does .
Hope this helps

please, read the first post!
Notes: The icons on the bottom of the recovery are placeholders for when i get the touchscreen working. I'm working on making this a touch recovery like the ones in my signature.

If you're not fond of ADB like me,
Open terminal emulator
Grant it super user by typing
su
then hitting enter and select 'allow' when the toast pops up
You should now see the '#' symbol
Now type,
mount -o remount,rw /boot
Then hit enter
Now go to your favorite file manager that goes to the root dir. (I prefer ES File Explorer)
Now copy uimage.CWM6 to /boot
Reboot.

Thanks for this! Worked great for me, I used the free Android Terminal Emulator from the Play Store and my preferred file manager is Root Explorer. The only thing I had to do differently was first delete the old CWM uimage from the boot file before pasting in the new one.

This is a custom version of clockworkmod 6.0.1.4 (latest version available). See the 2nd post for information on what is in the extras menu.
To install:
- download these 2 files -----> uImage.CWM6 & touchpad_recovery_extras.zip
- boot into your current clockworkmod and mount /boot and /sdcard
- plug into your computer and run these commands
Code:
cd {location of folder where 2 files you just downloaded are}
adb push uImage.CWM6 /boot/uImage.CWM6
adb push touchpad_recovery_extras.zip /sdcard/touchpad_recovery_extras.zip
- go to install zip and choose the touchpad_recovery_extras.zip from your sdcard
- reboot and you will see an option in moboot for CWM6

Whats in the extras menu?
- enable/disable one confirm (this makes it so you only have to scroll through one confirm selection when installing something instead of having to go through 10 of them to click yes)
- hide/show backup & restore progress (this makes it so the progress bar when you backup/restore doesnt show up and makes backups/restores a bit faster since it doesnt have to show you the progress and files its backing up)
- aroma file manager (file explorer - to configure properly: when opened the first time select "no" to use alternative touch. then press the back key or enter key to get past the dot part. that works best for me)
create custom zip (this will create a custom rom from the currently installed files you have on your phone. it takes your /system partition and /boot files and makes them into a zip file ready to be flashed. the end product will be in /sdcard/clockworkmod/zips/{DATE}. with date being a timestamp of the time it was created. be sure to run a fix_permissions after installing the zip too just in case. DO NOT DELETE THE FOLDER /sdcard/clockworkmod/zips/files
choose custom openrecoveryscript (read THIS)
- recovery info (shows the version of recovery and the build date)

Thanks for this! Everything works great and I'm looking forward to the touch controls.

Can't wait for the touch controls!

Recovery rules
This build of CWM 6 is impressive. I've been using TWRP since release for the TouchPad, but it's nice to know I've got a backup recovery now. Hopefully touchscreen controls won't be too much of a pain to get working. Thank you!

Unlocked RC29 (CWM Backup)

Hello. I managed to untie RC29 from blocking on setting up a Google account and inserting a SIM card. The notification shade and the home button work. Changes from pure Android 1.0 RC29 are minimal.
Requirements:
SDCard 500MB+
HBOOT-0.95.0000 or 1.33.2005 (Working, but not tested in use)
RADIO-2.22.19.26i
CWM v2.5.0.7
Might work with other configurations.
How to install:
Copy the clockworkmod folder to the memory card, reboot into CWM (Power + Home), restore the backup.
When you turn it on, press the menu (this is a kind of lock screen from 2008 ).
Additions:
Preinstalled Telnet app.
Busybox app pre-installed (does not work).
built-in busybox (execute "busybox" in telnet).
Bugs:
I did not test the firmware, most likely all the standard RC29 bugs
Google Apps don't work in any way! Google has disabled them on the server side!
Download:
Update V2

PS. Thanks to JesusFreke thread.

v2 update
In fact, I just removed the software that didn't work, spent a couple of hours in the old XDA threads and found some useful software.
Here is his list:
Dark Keys - program to control the backlight of the keyboard (Search + L - enable / disable the backlight)
Terminal - Terminal emulator
Telnet - Telnet client
DroidSans Tweak Tool - Tweaker
DevTools - "Hidden" settings
API Demos - Phone test program
OI FM - File Manager
AndFTP - FTP client
Any Cut - Shortcut Maker
Snake game - Game (trackball control).
Built-in su (xda thread)
Built-in nano (before launching, write export TERMINFO=/etc/terminfo or run via nano.sh %filename or nothing%)
Built-in ssh, nc, sqlite3
Embedded (not all) busybox shortcuts and added to PATH /system/xbin/bb. (I had to modify boot.img, if md5 mismatch appears, flash the images via fastboot. Sorry for the inconvenience.)
I plan to rebuild the firmware as rom.zip for CWM. But it is only dreams.
You can pull out the RC29 system files through the command: cp /system /sdcard (replace system with the name of the partition).
Please report any bugs you find!

I will purely by iricol create a ROM based on this in dsixda's kitchen
It will be a full copy of the CWM backup but it will only add the recommended Radio and installation will be done via update.zip(i.e. like all normal firmware)

Here's the promised ROM
Added radio.img(i.e. recommended radio will be flashed automatically)
Ziplagin all .apk and auto wipe when installing (I am not sure if this works so do wipe data/factory set and format /system before installing)
