I'm having some serious problems creating a port file. I have a lot of work to do today, so I might not be able to fix these issues today.
If you want to try CursorSense32A on your Hero, you can flash it without the port file. It should run fine as long as you don't mind the HTC Magic screens.
its ok bro, i`ll wait for the next update
tnx alot for your amazing work !

Sooooo I've built a ROM from the AOSP, and a kernel too...

So should I put it up on here?? It's just my own little build, nothing special, few things removed, some things added, but I don't know if its worth putting it out in the "wild"...
Basically a rooted 2.2-r1 AOSP build (FRF91 gapps), some bits removed, others added, modded my old A2SD+ release from when 2.1 was rooted ages ago (original one to move dalvik-cache across to sd), busybox, su, blah blah... Usual flavours... but I'm still working on it, options, compiles (kernel too, I need to find out how to add UV support, or HAVS if its better?? but have no idea where this information is...)
Don't really want to add too much choice though, there are plenty out there now, so not sure if it's worth releasing it, or just keep it private for me and friends
[to mods] - Sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I felt its a Q which needs an A... or an O (opinion)... Feel free to move if required.

SlapKernel 1.1 for Froyo 2.2 [easy root via SWUpgrade] [Battery mod]

SlapKernel 1.1 by ckpcw from SDX
I'm just reposting over here so that folks who may not read SDX are aware of it.
Any and all credit/blame goes to ckpcw from SDX i'm nothing more than the messenger
Link to Original Post
Features working:
-Fully compatible with both Sprint and VM Intercepts
-Root (bypasses epic exploit / one-click-root, no need to revert if you've installed it)
-Wifi & tether
-init.d scripts through /system/etc/setinit.sh (standard method)
-Busybox with swap support (tested with jiml8's enableswap zip)
-Auto-mounting of ext2 /system, /data, /cache partitions (need new recovery before this could be seriously utilized)
Implemented, but needs verification:
-Numus Battery mod
In Progress:
-Overclock: working towards an alternate method - I'm not convinced true overclock was achieved with the recent kernels
-VM-specific issues (doubtful this is a kernel issue)
SWUpgrade .tar: No previous root required. Flash as usual (place file in C:\Program Files (x86)\Samsung Electronics\SWUpgrade\Models\Binary\ by itself)
SlapKernel-v1.1.tar - http://www.mediafire.com/?5dpkailps0fbf06
SlapKernel-v1.0.tar - http://www.mediafire.com/?jpjc6ca3bj5ch4d
Recovery .zip: if you have rooted and installed inxane's recovery. To install, place the zip in /sdcard/sdx/zip/ and apply through inxane's custom recovery.

SlapKernel-v1.0.zip - http://www.mediafire.com/?dy7nmddb0r81g9j - mirror
CHANGELOG
v1.0) Initial build
-Init scripts
-/sbin/sdx.sh root method
-LouZiffer's busybox with swap support
-Bypasses epic exploit with /sbin/playlogo
v1.1) Slapped silly
-Added Numus' custom battery code
-Added ext2 automount support for /s /d /c
Let me know how it goes!
-ckpcw
Big thanks to inxane, Necrosan, Kuroyoma for their kernel work. Props to joeykrim for the cross-compiler guides. Gracias, Numus for the battery code. Ups to all of SDX for the sdx.sh script I lifted.
will slapkernel still let pandora work?
my intercept just came in the mail a few hours ago so far i've gotten 2.2 on it and that's all i've tried
i intend to try this on mine when i get home.
i'll let you know about pandora then.
I am currently using this kernel, most function seems to work well with the exception of MMS. Can't wait for version 1.2, ckpcw says over-clock may possibly be involved.
Happily awaiting kernel updates for slap! Cool kernel, really sped up my roommates intercept. Its cool to see anything being developed for this device. Stock it is a pretty terrible phone, but rooted with new roms and kernels, its a decent phone.
Sent from my Evo4G!
Pretty staggering battery life on this kernel also, about 5 hours maximum. Screen set to most dim setting at all times. Been on the kernel for 4 days and have to charge up at least 2 times a day, no matter what. Just bug reporting...

hmmm i've not experienced this yet. Mine goes at least a day. I'm also a heavy user not alot of tethering or anything but i get better than that. i'll report this over in the thread on sdx
Looking forward to trying this out.
Oh I want SO bad to try this. Unfortunately, it seems I'll only be rooting at 2.1 for VM, because I actually use MMS pretty damn often...
No big deal really got it on gf's phone can't tell a difference other than applying root, one click method posted here works for that maybe when it gets overclocked
Swyped from my EVO
Root works with VM Intercept after 2.2 Froyo update
Dont know if I got lucky... But, Root works with VM Intercept after 2.2 Froyo update. I used the Sprint rom from sdx that I found links to here. I do have the known bugs... No SMS and VM notifications.

[31 DEC] gauner1986's HD-FI 0.3 (Desire HD based) [KERNEL = my own :)]

So.. MAGLDR is finally out. I'd like to give away the stuff i've put my love in in the last few months while testing MAGLDR. Without neat release pictures (I'm bad at marketing, i'm the software guy, sorry..)
This is the latest version of Desire HD Sense FRG83D (very close to stock). Basically everything is working and I have been using it for a while now.
It's a little slower than most Desire ROMs (though you get neat benchmark scores; NOTE: Benchmark scores are usually lower than the ones from SD builds,
because NAND writes are slower), but that pays off feature wise in my opinion. See for yourself.
I have squashfsed the app and framework directory, which saves a lot of space. (Desire HD ROMs are very space hungry). Finally got it down to use only 230 MB + (6MB free in /system, because mkyaffs2image does strange stuff), which means you will have 184MB of storage space available for your user files (if you use the partitioning layout I supplied with the DFT flasher and depending on if you chose to use the EXTROM area/last 24 MB of NAND space in MAGLDR - if you have a TMOUS LEO you will of course have more).
Things i have removed (i can remember..):
Maps (it's an outdated version anyway - download a new version from Market)
eReader stuff + eBooks (takes 50 MB or so - WTF, not worth it)
Not sure if all languages are working, because I removed some of the language dependend stuff, except for German and English.. Has to be tested. <- should be working according to users.
Notes:
This ROM comes as ODEX-ROM, because that again saves a lot of space, which would otherwise be taken twice (once in davlik cache and once in /system/app / system/framework)
If you want SuperUser, install the superuser app from market. I'm not sure if i am allowed to just include it in my ROM. (0.2 has superuser app pre-installed)
My own kernel is included, based on the latest linux_on_wince_htc git. It has the SMARTASS and INTERACTIVE governor as well as an undervolt (925 mV) (no UV in 0.2 anymore).
Of course this ROM comes with RMNET enabled. My version of the libhtc_ril_wrapper allows you to choose between PPP and RMNET by file. If /system/ppp exists (create it with touch /system/ppp) then PPP will be used, otherwise RMNET. RMNET is working quite well, so i would suggest you use that.
If you want notifications working, install Led me know from market. I had battery drainage issues with it, so i removed it.
If you still experience problems with the Browser just closing, or crashing, install Flash player from Market
Due to the squashfsed app and framework directory you will NOT be able to write into /system/framework and /system/app. If you want to change sth there you need to extract my ROM and unpack squashed.sqsh, make your changes and put everything back. I won't explain it in detail here. Use google if you want to know more, or search the forum.
The MAC address of the WIFI interface can't be read correctly, nor changed at the moment. We need to wait for Cotulla to implement it in MAGLDR. <- MAC address can be changed temporarily. See here. Thanks to clio94 for posting this.
Known issues:
There is some issue with dexopt running for the apk's in /data/app on every boot atm, which i was not able to solve yet.. (You see a lot of Pruning dalvik file.... in logcat, making bootup slow, if you have a lot of apps installed)
Maybe someone else can help out on this?
On some languages you can't add cities to the weather widget/app. Switch to English if you want to do that as a workaround, you can switch back afterwards again.
htcsense.com features are not working currently - dunno what causes this; Maybe it's HTCs fault
If you think the ROM is slow.. Wait at least one hour after you installed and configured all your stuff before judging! ROM is syncing and configuring a lot of stuff after initial setup!
Download:
Version 0.3 -> Multiupload; BACK UP YOUR STUFF BEFORE FLASHING if you use a previous version to be sure!
Code:
Changelog in v 0.3:
- Squashfsed more directories - gives us a LOT of space.. System footprint now is 209 MB; you should have more userdata space available!
- Fixed issues with browser closing while loading flash vids - test it please

Instructions taken from Cotulla:
1. download MAGLDR 1.10
2. download NAND Android ROM
3. Install MAGLDR to your LEO (ROMUpdateUtility.exe)
4. Boot LEO and select in the menu "4. USB Flasher"
5. Run DAF.exe on your computer. Do all steps.
6. Wait while it's flashing.
7. After flashing device will make auto-reset.
8. It should boot directly to Android.
9. If any errors happens, please report in Cotulla's thread, which is here.

So finally i want to thank some people.. Without you that all would not have been possible.
* Cotulla: for his great MAGLDR and trusting me while testing it.
* mdeejay: for supplying me with userspace stuff.
* Markinus, LeTama, Rajko and all the other great devs from #htc-linux who contributed
* Everyone else I forgot
If you want to buy me a beer you can do so by clicking the link in my signature. I put a lot of time in all this.
And of course buy Cotulla a beer, without him we wouldn't have come so far in that little time!
You know I want a working Desire HD ROM, don't you, you little tease
Keep up the good work my man. I shall follow this thread with mighty salivation.
jesus...
i cant choose which to d/l first!!! =P
great work guys!!!
Can't wait! Thanks so much guys for your hard work.
Thanks, looking forward to this one
I just sent some beer your way, do you happen to know donation details for Cotulla/DFT?
Happy new years
So much thank you all for giving this gift to us!
I'll test it in minutes
gauner1986, HI-FI man how's unlock time on your build usually on desire hd builds it is 3 seconds... to much
drooling already.... more and more familiar names here...
could anyone explain this for me ??
"(if you use the partitioning layout I supplied with the DFT flasher and depending on if you chose to use the EXTROM area/last 24 MB of NAND space in MAGLDR)."
i found an option "UseLast24NAND" but what does that mean ?! ..ooouuuh Im so confused with all these unknown words
Whooohooo I'm excited for this!
can you upload before newyear
As an user of MDJ's Desire HD builds I can't wait for this

[Kernel] DamianGTO STEAM kernel (Beta) *Update 2011-02-19*

********** This is DamianGTO Steam kernel **********
This is the only working steam kernel for froyo 2.2.1.
With this you get a recovery that has touchscreen and all tool you need for your phone.
You also get a good kernel thats fast and very close to stock kernel.
I also made this tool(Damian tweak) to make things a bit easier.
There is a Steam Rom also now. I made it to make it easier for all.
I also have a new kernel that has a simpler recovery, but all script is working.
So look at the DamianGTO Ultimate kernel.
This is what you get with this kernel:
- Full (multi-)touchscreen interface in the recovery.
- Ext2, Ext4, Jfs and rfs file system auto-detection support
- On-line help system
- A primitive File Manager
- An even more primitive console
- Crypto
- Configure options for Steam Kernel
- Afterburner post-flash utility
- 32 bit display support
- Backup/Restore
- Root (installs busybox 1.18.1 and superuser)
- Almost everything CWM had (supports both sdcards, even for usb storage mode, efs backup support, etc.)
- Afterburner
- Theme support with afterburner
- 350MB RAM
- Optimized kernel tweaks
- Alter minfree strict settings
- Deadline schedueler (Optimized)
- Tiny RCU( less memory footprint)
- lowmemorykiller patch
- Support for bootanimation.zip
- Made from froyo 2.2.1 source code.
- Initramfs from JS3 kernel
- No logging after booting the phone.
- Voodoo sound V4
This is a Beta version and it is not 100% stable.
Have always a backup before you use it and when you use it, so you don't loose your data if something unexpected happens.
ROOT:
If you want root you need to install busybox and superuser.
You also must convert your System to Ext2, Ext4 or Jfs.
Lagfix:
You can convert all partition you want to Ext2, Ext4 or Jfs.
I do use EXT2 only right now and its working very good.
Jfs has a bug if you use it on system. you loose all your sound.
This works best for me and its fast, but its up to you what you want to use.
Don't use Ext4 on the Cache if you need all 30MB for downloading from market.
Ext4 will take 4MB for its journal.
Bootanimation:
Put your bootanimation.zip in /data/local folder and it will use that next time the phone boot up.
You must also change it in recovery to use Android boot animation.
If you don't the boot animination will not work and the phone will be black until it has started up.
Theme:
You must change the script in the theme.zip file.
Look in the afterburner section how the script shall be.
You only need to change the updater-script to update-script and make the change thats needed.
I have put in Ext4 and Jfs support in the kernel. People ask to much about it and I dont think its fair for me not to use it when this is the only steam kernel on froyo 2.2.1 that works.
I still think ext2 is a better system for the phone and use it on the Data partition without any problem.
I also used Tiny RCU( less memory footprint) and lowmemorykiller patch to make the kernel a bit better.
**Update **
New kernel again (1k).
This time I did move it to 600HZ and optimized the cpu use.
It should be faster and smother then 1J, but not has as much battery drain then Speed_kernel.
I hope this is right settings and it will not drain more battery then stock.
You dont need afterburner to install themes.
But you still need to change the script to an update-script.
Then you can use the zip option in the recovery.
Afterburner:
Download the theme you want.
Download afterburner.zip( attached last in this post).
Open the zip file and put your theme zip in the catch folder and remove the other file.
Edit the afterburner.conf.
Change the TEST with the name of your theme and what your theme zip file is named.
---[ID:theme
---[NAME:Install TEST Theme
---[HELP:This will install TEST to your phone. Beware! You can only switch back to a previous theme if you have them in a afterburner file.
extract theme
install_package CACHE:TEST.zip
If your theme has updater-script and update-binary then they don't work.
To make them work you need to use update-script and remove both of the files.
In this new file you write where you want the file to be copied.
If you don't know how this script file works then ask and you will get help.
You can also put as many them zip file in the afterburner file you want.
Just copy all folders and rename the Theme folder to a different name and copy the text in afterburner.conf. and write the new folder name in the text you just put in. If you don't know how then ask and i will help you.
I will put some theme up thats already fixed later on.
If you have a theme that you want med to fix just give me a pm.
So try this Steam kernel and tell what you think. If you find any bug then tell me also.

Ok i hope you can fix it. I will wait for it.
i Idon't know if i can handle your steam kernel. Can i use there the apps z4mod and z4control for tweaks or is there any other method?

Way to go.
i can use this with jpy 2.2.1?
I am going to test this!
Edit:
I flashed with a stock JP7 and then Damian's Steam Kernel afterwards.
Everything is working flawless, no problems at all even after two hours extensive using.
Quadrant shows a 1213 which is normal on JP7.
Later I am going to try with Lagfix enabled and other ROMs.
I like the Steam recovery, somehow strange, but kewl and modern ;-)
Kernel seems to be more responsive than the stock kernel!
ok, I flashed my fon with Nitr8's insanity 0.3.2 based on Android 2.2.1.
After that (without even booting it) I flashed with Damian's Steam Kernel.
Everything went flashless, Systems comes up fast - BUT:
The Baseband is NOT recognized from the Steam Kernel. There we still ned to fix, but everything else is working well.
Responsiveness is very good. I am very happy with it so far as it is looking promising.
Using the Quadrant Score gives me just 1180. This is really not enough.
Nevertheless it feels very responsive and smooth ??
Feelig (especially in Recovery Mode and other things like that) very dodgy and often throwing errors out on console makes me not worrying as it is still alpha.
Why is this kernel using 300Hz ? next I need to try some optimizations though.
Edit:
after 2 reboots suddenly the baseband is correctly recognized ??
so I can confirm now it works sufficent to be tested on JPY 2.2.1
Seems to work okey.
This kernel base is the same that the latest z4mod kernel I did.
So they should work the same after you booted up the phone.
The steam recovery is fun, but its need more work to be safe.
**Damiangto steam kernel, 346MB, 300HZ **
*** UPDATE **
I have fixed the root issues.
It should work, but if you get any problem just tell me
I did update the kernel file on the first post.
So download it if you use the first kernel.

The kernel is stable, but the recovery is still alpha and i must test that more and hope for an update if the steam engine.
But if you have a place for kernels thats not stable then you can use it.
I know many want a steam kernel and im suppriced that none have done any yet on jpx source that works.

Yes, maybe start in the beta section to see if is stable
Okay Damian.. Just jumped in with both feet into this Kernel..
Looks nice.. I will continue testing over the weekend,,
Well until I reflash, but the install was super easy, and it installed with no problems.. Looks nice and easy to use..
So far so good.
Installed this kernel under Darky's latest 8.0 ROM. Working fine so far!
I'm going to do some testing with all the settings today, keep you all informed.
