Zenity's Changes:
Integrated Camera update : Camera often FC's in Haret installs due to excessive startup times
Integrated Cell tower location and pin verification
Added dark themed build
Removed the following expired apps;
Astro
maps
facebook
nav launcher
(all these apps are available in Market)
For Nand users, NBH is set for panel2, 320x428 @ 143 density, use rogue tools to change density, if you prefer another resolution or if you need a different panel type you will have to edit the nbh using Loserskaters NBH Editor, and reflash it.
For advanced users: You can edit the NBH to reduce the system partition using the NBH editor, I suggest 82Mb minimum for /system, this will give more space on /data.

Created another Romantically Apocalyptic themed Splash screen exclusively for Polymod, download, rename as kaisimg.nbh, put on SD, flash, enjoy : Polymod/Zenity Bootsplash (16)
Having been asked about Donations, I would like to request that anyone wishing to should donate to Polyrhythmic, it is his build, I am only maintaining it.
(Note: the numbers in brackets following the download links are an infrequently updated download count)
Installation instructions.
Nand:
You must have HardSPL installed, recommended minimum version 3.29.
Recommended Radio version 1.65 or above.
MicroSD card must be formatted Fat32.
Download whichever themed version you prefer.
Unzip the downloaded file to a suitable temporary folder, then copy everything to SD card root.
You will now have an SD card with one file on root,(KAISimg.nbh), and one folder,(andboot), place this SD in your device and flash the NBH using bootloader method, ( if you are unsure of how to do this please read through Dukenukemx's excellent guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=680518).
Once you have flashed the device you must remove the battery, then replace it and power on, once you have the scrolling text press and hold the centre of the lcd screen until you get the install menu, ( you can also use dpad centre button, or volume up button ).
Once in the installer menu check that sys on nand, data on nand are starred, then choose option 1: install (yes, you know you will wipe your present system, yes, you want to clear data).
Once the installer finishes choose quit, and wait until the initial boot completes, ( this will take a little time, but once you see the boot animation everything is going well).
This next stage is important, please read carefully, or your system will likely be unstable.
Once you reach the welcome screen, press the android, skip the intro, skip the sign in, press next to both the following screens, and once this is complete, wait, for at least 15 minutes, with this build ,(as with most deodexed builds), it is important not to dive in and mess with things, the system needs time to copy the odex files to cache, if you interrupt this you could get a load of fc's, and most likely have to reinstall.
Once you have completed the waiting stage, you are usually best to power down, and reboot, your system should now be ready to begin using.
Initial setup:
This is common to both haret and nand installs, and is my usual procedure with most android roms, it should help with both battery life and speed.
In settings;
In Sound and Display, uncheck Orientation.
Set animations to Some. (you may wish to leave this at All).
Add google account.
In Spare Parts;
Set Window and Transition animations to Fast.
Check Home app in memory.
Advanced options: These may yield additional performance.
Use either Compcache or Swap, using both may actually slow the system down, you will require an SD card that has been partitioned with a 64Mb swap partition for swap.
Installation Instructions.
Haret/SD:
You must be using at least Windows Mobile 6.1
Recommended radio version is 1.65 or above
MicroSD card must be formatted Fat32 and be at least 2GB
Download whichever themed version you prefer.
Unzip to a temporary folder, then copy the files to SD.
You may delete KAISimg.nbh from SD, it is not required for Haret installs.
Fisrtly you must rename one of the default-device.txt files to default.txt, or alternatively edit the default-device.txt file and save as default.txt.
What you may need to edit/add;
board-htckaiser.panel_type=x, panel type may be 1,2,or 3, it should be apparent on boot is you are using the wrong panel type, the screen may be wrongly coloured, or have odd pixels, streaks etc, reset the device, change this option and run haret.exe again.
mddi.width=240 mddi.height=320 sets the screen resolution, default is 240 320, other common values are 320 428 and 320 480. (see lcd density).
lcd.density this also affects how the display looks, larger values make the everything on screen look smaller, default for 240x320 is 160, 320x428 is 144, 320x480 is 120,
board-kaiser-keypad.atttilt=x sets the keyboard map, 0 is querty US, 1 is at&t Tilt, 2 is Nordic, 3 is azerty, 4 is qwertz.
Once you have edited and saved the default.txt file it is time to install it to SD.
run Haret.exe, once you see the scrolling text, press and hold the lcd screen centre, ( you can also use dpad centre, or volume up keys), until you get into the Installer menu.
Once in installer menu choose option 1: install, and yes, this will wipe any system on SD card that you may have previously installed, it will not wipe WM.
Choose yes to wipe previous system, and data, wait until the installer has finished and returned to the main menu.
Choose quit, and android will continue to boot.
This next stage is important, please read carefully, or your system will likely be unstable.
Once you reach the welcome screen, press the android, skip the intro, skip the sign in, press next to both the following screens, and once this is complete, wait, for at least 15 minutes, with this build ,(as with most deodexed builds), it is important not to dive in and mess with things, the system needs time to copy the odex files to cache, if you interrupt this you could get a load of fc's, and most likely have to reinstall.

Set animations to Some. (you may wish to leave this at All).
Add google account.

Check Home app in memory.
Advanced options: These may yield additional performance.
Use either Compcache or Swap, using both may actually slow the system down, you will require an SD card that has been partitioned with a 64Mb swap partition for swap.
Data ( 3G etc), under Haret: Notice that you may have to start a data connection in Windows Mobile before running Haret.exe, failing to start data May prevent 2/3G data from working correctly under Android.
Sounds like you've got some good things to add to Polymod that it's needed for a long time. Best wishes and have fun with the build!
Always had fun with your build poly, no matter what I tried, I always ended up re-installing it
I know you stated it in the other thread but what are all the changes you did to delta?
and is your download themed like the screenshots (those are gamma I think)...I loved the dark theme.
The first post is pretty much a placeholder at the moment, It will be evolving to reflect the status of 2.1D soon, I am working on the screenshots and changes at the moment and will update the first post as soon as possible.
Delta is now available in both light and dark themes, screenshots will follow soon
Absolutely top notch instruction and ROM.
Far more stable than my previous attempts with other ROM's. Ill be watching this closely.
Thanks a lot zenity.
Thanks, it has always been my favourite build, and just needed some updating to bring it back to life
I only received my Kaiser ( well, TytnII here) on monday. Ive gone through about half this subforum already Every other build I've tried managed to go fine until I put my sim in... then it went south from there....
Will see how it goes with this build once Ive tweaked as per your guide....
Notice your using radio 1.70, not sure about SA, but it is possible that you may get on better with 1.65 series, ( European users certainly do better on this radio), really depends what the actual issue is with the sim card?
Hmmm, maybe you're onto something. I'll give the 1.65 you are running a try...
Well if it's a lot of 'no service' problems, then that may sort it, did for me
Hi zenity!
What is wrong with installing Haret?
Once you select quit, and android continue to boot, system hangs and nothing happens!
Any ideas?
Hmm, I'll look into that, but remember running from haret is slower, and the initial boot does take quite some time, it will appear to hang even on nand for a few minutes before continuing to load, if it does not reach the bootanimation within 5 minutes, then something may be wrong with the haret files, I'll flash WM and check that.
ok
Just for your information - once pressed quit, I wait more than 10 minutes!
Just reflashed to WM, installed, it does take a lot longer than nand, quit, it does appear to hang, but finally went to bootanimation, and is running now, time is under 30 minutes, and that includes the WM reflash, so there are a few things to check.
WM version, must be 6.1 minimum, anything lower and you will get problems, guaranteed.
Try another SD card, remember for haret you need 2Gb minimum, it must be freshly formatted as Fat32, you really will need a lot of free space on the SD, (it is possible on a 1GB, but it will be really tight, and things may fail if there are bad blocks).
Remember if you are copying files to SD through activesync you must remove the usb cable safely, same goes for SD card adaptor, always use safe removal, as not doing this can leave data unwritten, ( safe removal writes any cached data before telling you it is safe to remove).
It is possible that the download is corrupt, you may want to redownload just to be certain, but try reinstalling everything from scratch first.
I have been having problems with anything downloaded from rapidshare lately. all the androidinstall.tgz are unable to open. giving this error...
Code:
gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
I though this was just my setup but if others are having install problems this may be
a file curruption issue. try re-downloading and see if you can open the androidinstall.tgz
this has been an issue with other builds as well as of lately.
please, make some screens

It wasn't no service, it was just plain locking up only while using the data connection. Wifi works 100% with no lockup. Will try it with the current radio then the new radio and give you soem feedback here.
Hi all,
This is not squashed ROM for EU HD2 which contains all files from the stock RUU_Ace_HTC_WWE_1.72.405.3_R_Radio_12.28e.60.140f_26.04.02.17_M2_release_161342_signed. Yes of course some executables(akmd, reboot, vold), some libraries, some config files and kernel were replaced for Leo. The reason of why I do this is my wish to have Desire HD ROM on my EU HD2 which is closest to stock.
The ROM size is about 407M. I do not like squashed ROMs. We all have sdcards and I do not see any sense to make squashed ROM. Therefore this build uses the second partition of sdcard to store dalvik cache, data, system apps, framework. So size of this rom in NAND is 391Mb, and in sdcard is 16Mb. I recommend you to use 1024MB second partition, but not less.
My CWM installation script mounts the second partition of sdcard to /data, creates sysfiles directory and copies /system/etc/clockwidget, and /system/etc/slideshow and /system/etc/soundimage to this second partition into /data/sysfiles directory. After that the script creates symbolic links to these three directories in /system/etc direcory, and copies all other files of ROM to system partition in NAND. So we have 391Mb of files in NAND, and 16Mb of files in the second partition of sdcard.
The kernel mounts the second partition of sdcard to /data before the init.rc script will be run. Therefore android use this partition as internal storage, and we see free space of this partition as free phone storage in info.
The content:
- Full stock Desire HD RUU 1.72.405.3
- Last Gauner's kernel.
- Fixed mms.
- Fixed WiFi MAC.
- Fixed su.
- Fixed sql lib.
- Fixed first and external partition mounting.
- Percent battery.
- Rmnet is ON by default, if you would like to enable ppp you should create ppp file in /system directory and reboot your phone. To create the ppp file you should connect your phone to PC and run this command in a terminal:
adb shell touch /system/ppp
You should delete this file and reboot your phone if you would like to enable rmnet again:
adb shell rm -f /system/ppp
Not worked:
- 720p recording
- bluetooth MAC
Removed apps:
- Ereader. Use the attached archive if you would like to use ereader. Install it by CWM.
Link to ereader
"How to install" is in the readme file of the build. Please, read it! This ROM is only flashable using ClockworkMod. CWM v 1.2 is included into archive of this build. Note, system partition in NAND should be 399Mb.
CWM v 1.2 fix:
If you would like to use CWM backup and restore you should replace CWM initrd.gz file on this file. I fixed CWM to soppurting partition layout without userdata partition..
Update the previous version ROM:
If you would like to update the previous version you should not touch your sdcard. You should do this only: format NAND by task29, install magldr, flash new CWM partition layout, install new ROM.
Recommendations:
- I recommend to format NAND by task29 before install this ROM. After formatting will be done you should install magldr again. All tools are included into the archive.
- I recommend to calibrate G-Sensor. To do it go to Seetings->Display->G_Sensor calibration->, place your phone FACE-DOWN on level surface, press Calibrate button. After calibration will be finished press Ok button.
- If you would like to use the "backup second partition" feature in CWM, the second partition should be labeled as sd-ext.
- Sometimes magldr does copying of data with errors(lost data) in the "USB MassStg" mode, but you do not see these errors. Next you can see that the ROM installation was finished shortly. If it happens you should look into CWM log and you will see some errors of files extraction from archive. If you will copy this archive to sdcard again, but only by CWM or by other cardreader, you will not see these errors in CWM log. Therefore I recommend you to copy ROM zip to sdcard by CWM or by other cardreader.
- To get a CWM log you should do this:
a) Install the ROM
b) After the installation will be completed you should not reboot your phone! Go to "advanced" item of CWM menu.
c) Next select "Report Error" item. CWM will create the clockworkmod directory in root of sdcard.
d) Next copy the recovery.log file from the clockworkmod directory and attach this file to the thread. I will check it.
- The first loading(from the phone rebooting moment to appearance of the language choice screen) is long. Be patient, please.
- Please, setup only that you really need during the first boot. Desire ROM is syncing and configuring a lot of stuff during first boot if you have entered your google account. I recommend to setup all needed accounts after initial setup. And, please, let system sync and configure all stuff, next reboot your phone. After this work will be completed the ROM will be fast. I recommend:
a) disable the sync of accounts which are no needed for you, or change "Update schedule" of these accounts.
b) disable the "Back up my setting" for google account if it is no needed for you.
c) disable Automatic brightness and set Brightness to min value.
- Note, please, you can use CifsManager to mount cifs(samba(ms windows))/nfs network resources to your phone. This tool is available in the Market. It allows you to play music or watch movies from any shared resources which are available in your local network without copying this content to your phone. To use it your phone should be connected to local network by WiFi.
Currently I have 2Gb ext4 second partition on my Transcend 6-class sdcard. I can tell the system works properly and fast:

Performance:
Please, look at my video if you would like to see the performance of this ROM.
Download:
EFP v.2 HD2 Desire HD stock (last Gauner's kernel)
Kernels: (only if you would like to replace a kernel of your already installed ROM to other kernel)
Gauner's kernel with ext4
MDJ's 10.3 kernel
MDJ's 10.4OC kernel
Updates:
Desire HD stock toolbar
Desire HD custom toolbar with percent battery
How to install kernels, updates or fixs:
1. You should have already ClockworkMod(zImage and initrd.gz) on sdcard. If you use ROM-ZIP builds I think you have it already.
2. Copy the update.zip file from an update or a fixs archive to sdcard root.
3. Reboot your phone, hold Power button to access the magldr menu.
4. Next select the "Boot AD SD" item. ClockworkMod will be loaded and you will see ClockworkMod Recovery menu.
5. Select the "apply update from sdcard" item.
6. Select "Yes".
7. After flashing will be done select the "reboot system now" item.
what working and not working ???
It would be nice to have the readme of each build at least posted in the first post, so we don't have to download everything to see if we need it
I am always looking for a PURE/Stock Desire HD build, with no frils and no EXTRA apps, for a TMOUS HD2. But with no readme , i'll wait for someone first.
Greetings Santroph
Did it Include CM Mod setting?
Ok, thats what I get for beeing unpacient, downloaded it, before even reading the thread hehehe
So it is what it says, only CWM versions of the sayd rom....
I don't need it synce I don;t use CWM, but, some people might like it. Thanks anyway.
Greetings Santroph.

Wel he did say that in the very first line of his post
But Until I get some sort of details on the builds and whats in it and whats not, I'll download MDJ's and let it sit on my sd card, cause I found CWM yesterday, and personally love it, especially with being able to take most NAND roms and convert them to CWM makes it ideal.

does anyone have problems with root on gauner's kernel ? titanium backup can't get root permissions on my phone
wtf? i can`t choose CWMREC directory...
i dont get if its based on andrews work, so is it a2sd+ or data2sd? i think he mis explained
can someone confirm

after i unlock phone its stuck at the htc logo
i have ext2 partition already

From the "How to instal" in readme file:
...Copy the CwMRec directory from the 2_step directory to root of sdcard.
After copying will be finished disconnect USB cable.
Go to "Services->BootSettings->AD SD Dir" in the magldr menu and select the CWMREC directory....
1. Perhaps you forgot to disconnect a USB cable safely.
2. You copied the content of the CwMRec directory to root of sdcard, but not the CwMRec directory. In this case the CwMRec directory not exists on sdcard, the zImage and initrd.gz files are placed in root of sdcard. You should skip the step of selecting directory for boot from SD or select the <.> .

This is a2sd+.
In case of A2SD the internal storage does not include external partition, you will see only size of free space in NAND. But in case A2SD+ you will see free space of the external partition as size of intrenal storage.

I am using Gauner's kernel build currently and I do not have any issues with root.
something is awfully wrong
the gauner version keeps giving me a bootloop
I think you forgot to disconnect a USB cable safely. Or you copied the content of the CwMRec directory to root of sdcard, but not the CwMRec directory.

V4.31.44.12
v4.32.44.12 applied with theme from he_stheone64.
Important note:
I create the Desire Series together with freak, and also got a lot of help from many technical experts, so, please thank them as well if you like the build.
This thread is for discussing the SD builds only.
All the releases, Please check: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962600.
Please discuss the SD builds at: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9979611#post9979611
Before flash or install new builds:
1. DON'T expect it will work out of box.
2. DON'T expect it will be as light and fast as Gingerbread.
3. DON'T expect that some legacy problem will disappear
4. Reboot your phone at lease twice after flashing or installing, after 1st boot into setting screen, long press the right button to recall the boot menu, reboot. Can not use /Update_DL method to install app before 3rd reboot.
5. For this version, due to the base has been changed throughly, can not use previous data.img or ext4, remove existing data.img and set data_img=1 to let system generate one for you, or set format_ext4=1 to format your ext4 if you are using ext4
6. DON'T set any config for 1st installation except data_img=1(for data.img) or format_ext4=1(for ext4 user). if your have tmous phone, no need the config.txt.
7. For SD or magldr, if 1st installation failed, must delete the system.ext2 file under /Desire_DL to let system convert it again.
8. Use Windows notepad create a file named config.txt, save it under /Desire_DL, only need to put the necessary config inside it, say:
data_img=1.
Important Release Note
This build is another endeavor by freak and me to improve the performance of our build, now, besides our existing optimization methods: squashfs, ext4, etc, this build has been added in the following features to improve it performance furthermore:
1. Re-Engineering Sense:
All the apps and framework were re-compiled and reduced the size to get the lowest RAM consuming and Highest performance.
2. Merged DesireZ and DesireHD into one.
Merged the advantage features from both DesireZ and DesireHD into one build.
3. RAMfs
by default, one 16M RAMfs will be created for app and market cache.
once set ram_data=1, additional 1 RAMfs will be created for most accessed dalvik cache.
4. Re-write the SuperInit
fixed a lot of bugs inside and optimize it again, once set ram_data=1, the boot time should be within 1min, in next version, the boot time will be reduced again.
5. Added a lot of usable functions into SuperInit
- extend the backup/restore to be able to backup &restore to different build.s
- added more repair_mode, to be able to repair the nand system and reset the system.
6. Use own kernel Source: http://www.linux4freak.com/gitweb
- freak kernel v1.2 to perfect fit our builds.
--hence, 2 parameters were added to best control the kernel
---vdd_mode= xxx //for under/over volting cpu, [-150,-125,-100,-75,-50,-25,+25,+50]
---sched_mode= xxx // "cfq" or "bfq"
I dare to say, the performance of this build is unbeatable.
New Features for SuperInit v4.4
-- Buildin with IMG/EXT4/RAM support
--- by default will create a 16M RAMfs and use it as app_cache and cache.
--- once set the ram_data=1, will move the dalvik-cache of framwork into RAM
--- to roll back to normal status, use the ram_data=11
-- Optimize the nand_data, which will also be able to move the dalvik-cache of framwork into Nand.
-- add new backup_img=2 to back apps from data, which is used for changing the build, the backup_img=1 will back up the whole data, once restore to a new base, will incur the UID inconsistent issue. should use restore_img=2 to restore.
-- add more function for repair_mode
-- repair_mode=1 will rescue the data partition.
-- repair_mode=2 can use the MAGLDR load system to repair the Nand system and mount the Nand system to /mnt/rescue
-- repair_mode=3 will reset the system, all the modified app, framework, lib, fonts that caused the issue will be removed, system will be reset to the origin without losing data and settings.
-- Auto detect the phone modal(EU or TMOUS)
--- for EU modal, will auto enable the data.img if the 2nd partition can not be found.
--- for TMOUS, if doesn't have 2nd partition and set the data_img=1, will auto bypass all the relative code to reduce the boot time.
-- Auto detect the boot mode and set the best config (SD/MAGLDR/NAND)
-- Auto partitioning the SDCard if set the format_ext4=9

How to ask for help:
1. First, make sure you ask at the proper place, this thread is only for ask the question related to the NAND, please ask questions related to SD or MAGLDR at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=881937
2. Please indicate the following information when asking for help:
a. your phone modal: EU or TMOUS modal.
b. your loading mode: NAND, SD or MAGLDR
c. Please post the content of init.log(this file is on the root of your sdcard).
3. Please be patient and polite.
4. We(myself and freak) will only answer question that follows the above rules, thanks!!!
Naming convention
1. the 1st digit is for the build base, say DesireZ v4.xxx, is for the v4.0 base which based on the HTC RUU 1.85.
2. the 2nd field is for the subversion, normally, x.0 means the first relase which should based on a totally new base, and from x.0 till x.3, there will be a lot fix and testing, if you want a stable version, DON'T use it, and the build will be stabilized after x.4.
3. the 3rd field is for the init version, currently, our init is at v42, which is also not a stable version.
4. the 4th field will be used for the kernel, currently, freak is working on it, and will have the 1st kernel soon.

- - all the stock framework-res.apk:1.72, 1.83, 1.84, 1.85.
- How to change wifi mac address by Terabite7
- Install EVO Keyboard from ehsan76
- More kernel update package
- full Arabic support by jaguaralani and
this
- Optional update for full Arabic support View attachment update.newfeature.Arabic.zip (for both SD&Nand version)
Cautioin: you will lost the boot animation after this update.
- Compulsory update to v2.3 for v2.2 to extend the config.txt and enable Force using the ext4.
View attachment back.update.ext4.1501201103.zip (for both Nand version only)
you need to extract the DLZUPDATE to the root your of SDCARD, and have attached the .data folder with a pre-made config.txt. the data_img and data_ext can not be activated(set to 1) at the same time.
Reboot your mobile twice to activate the data2ext4, after that, you can put your app under /DLZUPDATE/AndroidApps/, to automatically install the app into ext4.
Q&A
1. why cannot I get as high score as freak on v3.3
PLEASE read here
2. about ext2/ext3/ext4: (ownhere)
I will provide the feature for format the partition2 to ext4 with block size of 4096 in next update.
3. what's the recommended config for data to sd(data.img)
A:
4. what's the recommended config for data to ext4.
A.
Note1. for 1st installation or if encounter ext4 performance issue, please set the format_ext4=1, it will take some time to format the 2nd partition, after booting into system, please manually change the format_ext4 to 0, otherwise, system will format the ext4 every time when reboot. After re-formatting , lot problems related to ext4 will be eliminated.
Note2. the "nand_data" is for making use of the nand data partition, if your SD card is fast enough, no need to use it. for 1st installation, it is always necessary to set it to 0, after that, you can try to set it to 1 to check. (nand data partition will be mounted to /system/data_internal)
Note3. once set the sd_boost to 1, for ext4, it will be mounted to loop driver without journal, should improve some performance, but may not so stable, you can try.
5. How to enable ClockworkMod .
Thanks nightcraw, please check.
6. Can you make RAM, DHD or Android 2.3 builds .
NO.
1) I don't have time, making current builds perfect already occupied all my free time.
2) There are already enough choices, why bother.
3) My principle is : I will not touch it unless I can make it special, outstanding, and perfect.
7. Can you make a unsquashfs build .
Why?
1) squashfs can save a lot of space.
2) it can also improve the performance(read less from low speed sdcard and restore it using high speed CPU )
3) key system files are protected from being malicious modified.
4) you don't lose any flexibility of customize the system as much as you want, by just deleting the existing file and replace with you own file.
8. can I upgrade to v2.4 from v2.2 or v2.3 without losing my data.
upgrading from v2.2 to v2.3 is possible which I have provided the update package.
upgrading to v2.4 directly is no so straightforward, thus, suggest you flash the v2.4 instead, the data on ext4 should be kept, but it is always advised to format the ext4 using the format_ext4 parameter before installation, after that, you can put all your apps apk to the folder of /DLZUPDATE/AndroidApps, it will be automatically installed to the ext4 or data.img. Fast and clean.
How to install config the v3 based builds.
How to config SuperInit v4.4(advance user)
the config.txt is now under Desire_DL folder, Normall, no need to config it, system can auto-detect the status and set the config correctly.
You can use windows Notepad to create a text file and save it as config.txt to /Desire_DL, or just refer to this sample View attachment config.txt
The below config are for advanced user only.
For Nand:
=================
format_ext4=1 //will format the 2nd partition with ext4 (recommended for 1st install, if you have 2nd partition, it must be 1 for 1st time installation.)
format_ext4=9 //which will auto-partition your SDCard to 3 partitions, and auto-format to ext4.
// the 2nd partition is for data partition which size is according to the data_size, default is 512M.
//the 3rd partition is for system optimization, system will auto-create it.
swap_mode=1 //will create a vfat swap file to improve the system performance if don't have 3rd partition.
swap_mode=2 //will move the about 160M squashed.sqsh file from system to data partition to release the system space.
but you must manually delete the squashed.sqsh file under /system, and keep the swap_mode unchanged.
swap_mode=3 //will create some cache space in nand part, if encounter the slow response during market download and install, can choose this.
nand_data=1 // will make use of the nand parition to optimize the system performance.
For Nand&SD
=================
ram_data=1 //move the dalvik-cache of framwork into RAM, it can improve the system performance a lot
ram_data=11 //roll back to normal status
ram_data=0 //by default, system will create a 16M RAMfs to optimize the performance, can use this to disable it.
ram_size=xxx //by default, system will create a 16M RAMfs to optimize the performance, can use this to change the size.
sd_boost=1 //may improve the SD performnace for both data.img and 2nd partition, it is very much depend on the SD situation.
vdd_mode= xxx //for under/over volting cpu, [-150,-125,-100,-75,-50,-25,+25,+50]
sched_mode= xxx // "cfq" or "bfq"
Other config:
=================
data_size=xxx //when create data.img or 2nd partition, will use the size of xxxM.
gps_zone=xxx // your gps zone country code.
ppp_mode= 0 //will be RMNET mode, 1 for PPP. normally, no need to config it, system will auto set it.
backup_img=1 //will back the data part to backup.gz file under /Desire_DL
restore_img=1 //will restore the data part from backup.gz
backup_img=2 //will back the app from /data to backupapp.gz file under /Desire_DL
restore_img=2 //will restore the data part from backupapp.gz
This is used for restore the app to another build.
repair_mode=1 //will rescue the data partition without losing any app or settings.
repair_mode=2 //will use the MAGLDR load system and repair the Nand system, after that mount the Nand system to /mnt/rescue for further action.
repair_mode=3 //will reset the system, all the modified app in system, framework, lib, fonts that caused the issue will be removed, system will be reset to the origin status without losing data and settings.
How to play with V3.3 final.
there are a lot of possible combinations to play with this rom, most cool part is that you can boot it from Nand, Magldr or SD with the same data.img or ext4 partition, you cannot even differentiate where it is from after booting into the system.
for performance, there are also a lot of combinations to try, I have ever tested some as below, others, need somebody provide the figure.
0. Load from Nand:
1. Load from Nand, ext4: 1860
2. Load from Nand , ext4, with sd_boost: 1180
3. Load from Nand, data.img:
4. Load from Nand, data.img, with sd_boost:
5. Load from Nand with Squashed from data partition(swap_mode=2):
6. Load from Nand with 3rd swap partition:
7. Load from Nand with a VFAT swap file(swap_mode=1):
of course, 5,6,7 can also mix with ext4 or data.img and sd_boost.
8. Load from Magldr, ext4: 1960
9. Load from Magldr, data.image: 2100
10. Load from Magldr, datat.image, sd_boot: 1580
11. Load from SD, ext4:
12. Load from SD, ext4, sd_boost:
13. Load from SD, data.img:
14. Load from SD, data.img, sd_boost:
The sd_boost seems need to do some adjustment as I put all the focus on the normal configuration before.
please make it so u can use root uninstaller to remove system apps like u can with mdj cyanogen.
Thank you
this looks good...
upload it already dude
LOL

ISO MY STORAGE INSTALLATION (No Ubuntu) By Quato7906, MoDaCo
For all who are tired of using Ubuntu,to make My Storage installation,do this:
1.First download this and unrar it to the root of My Storage as is.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LMDVA130
2.make sure you have at least 1,2 GB free space on My Storage and copy the file fs.iso from here to the \iso folder.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5LAOKBYI
3.start haret.exe from the root of My Storage & enjoy the new Froyo.
* The 3d drivers are inside,also calllight and task manager.iso file is 1,1 GB now.
* For more apk installation space ,also trick: when you istall some apk's ,just copy the fs.iso file to your hard drive to have a backup if anything goes wrong,just copy the file back to iso folder .
* There is a new update, which fixes the Market problem, download here. Unrar,rename to fs.iso ,copy to \My Storage\iso and run haret.

FROYO BETA 1 MANUAL INSTALLATION (UBUNTU REQUIRED) By l3ong91
1. Clean all the partition on My Storage, left only with one PRIMARY, FAT 32 partition using Mini Tool Partition Wizard.
2. Format Storage Card using SD Formatter.
3. Copy the beta files and o2b3update.tar.gz(official) to My Storage.
3. Bootup Ubuntu, and copy o2b3update.tar.gz and ext4.tar.gz to desktop.
4. Download gParted and run it, go to Places -> unmount My Storage.
5. Start gParted, top right corner switch to My Storage (May have different label).
6. Create a new EXT 4 Partition, label as 'android', set as Primary Partition. (around 1 - 2GB will be good)
7. Then you will see 2 external drive on Ubuntu desktop.
8. Go to Places -> Mount both of them.
9. Then start Terminal from Applications and do all the commands below step by step.
Type in cd/ Desktop
Insert your password, then click Enter.
It will appears as (username) - desktop: ~/Desktop
Then, type in ''sudo tar zxvf ext4.tar.gz -C /media/android''
A list of files will be shown and copy over to the android partition.
Wait for the process to complete and type in below after return to ''(username) - desktop: ~/Desktop
''sudo tar zxvf o2b3update.tar.gz -C /media/android"
Last step, change the startup.txt found on another My Storage partition, rename the following line:
" Set CMDLINE "rootdelay=2 root= /dev/mmcblk0p6 init=/init" to the partition number that you created, eg. mmcblk0p2.*
You should be able to bootup Android after that.
*Some device may get different number, you can look for the Android partition number through booting up the device without changing anything in startup.txt, then at this screen, check the one which has the actual partition from what you created, below is an example from jerrytech2468.blogspot.com:

LATEST NEWS & UPDATES
2011-04-18
Froyo beta1. It's SD card installer (1024mb only). It includes latest kernel, modules, default filesystem is ext4, new keymapping. Download it here (it will wipe Your current installation and/or whole SD card content). As always it doesn't contain 2D/3D libraries from Samsung (You have to find them and put it before first boot to My Storage as o2b3update.tar.gz).
Froyo beta1 working things are:
Phone
WiFi
GPS
Data connections (GPRS)
Sensors (not everything is working: accelerometer can work, but compass not)
2D/3D (Samsung not allowed to us to distribute the 2D/3D library binaries, so they are not included in the image).
MP4/3GP movie play (camera hardware button doesn't work yet)
Camera in photo (up to 5MP) and movie recording mode (it's still not 480p, but works)
Note: There is still error, when within telephone conversation in approx.30 seconds the LCD blanks but also the sound muted - UNTIL NOT SOLVE, please use the Call Light or KeepScreen application from Market!!!
Note2: If You have problems with registering via Google use following workaround: open Youtube app and login there with google account.
Note3: Changed button mapping: Cube -> Menu, Lock -> Back, Back key -> Home, Hang-up -> Sleep/Hang-up/Wake, Camera -> not used.
Note4: Updates have now prefix o2b3update.{tar.gz|sh}.
Thanks, I will test today
woohoo. finally!! hopefully battery life has been improved dramatically. cant wait!!...download speed is a bit slow though.

The Froyo is awesome and I think the battery consumption has reduced and better now.
Is adobe flash works?
Any screenshot guys?
Sent from my Nexus One using Tapatalk
Works like a charm.
Just re-partitioning of my SD-Card was a bit tricky: The old Eclair-Beta-Partition was slightly smaller than the new one for Froyo. So the installation (haret within the o2beta-directory) always claimed that the SD-Card is too small (in fact mine is 2 GB). So I had to delete the old partitions and re-format it within the configuration-menu of WinMo.
If s.o. does not have a card-reader/adaptor for the microSD - just use this software linked in this post.
hey can someone upload the 3D drivers to mediafire. im having problem download it from filesonic
Looking forward to testing out FROYO. Taking a while to download as I guess a lot of people have been eagerley awaiting it!
Could someone please upload a screen shot?

Instead of asking ppl to post the screenshot, why not you just try it out on your phone?
I want to but I can't download. Download link not responding.
Thanks a lot l3ong91 for your efforts, Any other hints to run android smoother and better would be appreciated. I'm completely newbie about running android in the best way to have the best results.
Again Thanks a lot, you are really great man.

If you want to try out stable Android that can be used on daily basis, for
**Android Eclair (2.1) on Omnia 2, see my previous thread, follow and download the links under UNOFFICIAL RELEASE.
**Android Froyo (2.2) on Omnia 2, follow my guides on this thread, the overall impression is smoother and better than the previous release.
If you follow every step by step, you should be able to run Android on your Omnia 2.
Thank you!
Followed your instructions and..... Froyo lives!
Be sure to stress enough that new 2D/3D drivers are needed in order for Froyo to work properly. Only thing, Froyo keep saying that the SD card is damaged, when, of course, is working properly. Someone else with the same issue?

I don't have SD damaged problem, I can access SD card in Android, but when switch back to Win Mo, the SD card directory was missing.
Guys, please try to check if you guys have this problem with the Froyo beta.

For those who have problems with FileSonic, this is the 2D/3D files which i upload personally in .7z format.
You'll have to extract it out from .7z format first before you put into My Storage.
I've done what you said step by step but when android booted completely, in the welcome screen every time i clicked on android there is no response and suddenly the screen went black, I've tried to turn it on with keys but no response. What Should I DO?
Thanks
It works! Great work!
i have same problem as tiberiusmusicus. SD card is 'damaged'. however i can access it in winmo. it might be because the directory for the sd card is /mnt/sdcard and not /sdcard. im not sure....any solution? cant take photos because camera is not reading sdcard.
thank you so much to dev and TS for this froyo. i want to post ss on benchmark but cannot bcause still new in this forum and dont have enough post

CHANGELOG
WARNING!
This is a Virtually Repartitioned ROM!
What this means is that you will need to take some special steps to flash this ROM. Don't worry, it's not that hard, and you will be able to return to stock with Odin at any time. The cool thing is that it will support a ton of app and app data storage and will behave like a more modern device.
The basic idea with virtual repartitioning is that the partitions are renumbered from the stock numbering, but not resized. So the most important parts of this are (as an FYI, you don't need to know this ):
-The 2GB /data partition becomes a most adequate 2GB /system partition for the ROM and GApps.
-The 12GB Internal SD partition becomes /data, so you have that space to install apps.
It is strongly recommended to use an External SD card to store the ROM/flashing files and for backups, etc., however it is not mandatory. If you do not have an External SD and you need to format the /data and /Internal storage partitions, you will have to copy the files you need from your PC again. Easy peasy, right?
FAQ/NOTES:
When formatting the device, first go to the Mount menu and make sure none of the partitions you want to format are mounted. If they are, formatting will fail.
Make sure you have NOT selected Mount USB Storage, and that the MTP button says "Enable MTP", which means it is DISABLED. If either of these are enabled, then formatting may fail.
The /system partition is formatted as EXT4.
The /data and /cache partitions can be formatted as either EXT4 or F2FS.
The Internal Storage should be formatted as EXT4 or F2FS.
The External SD card (if you have one) would be best formatted as FAT, which you can do in your computer. When the ROM boots, it will detect the card and offer you one of two different ways to use it, as "Internal storage" that will only work with your device for security (requires formatting and encryption by Android), or as "Portable storage" that will work in other devices.
CAUTION: With Internal, you will have to entirely format your card if you have issues and it can not be used in ANY other device. In fact, it will become invisible in file managers because it becomes an extension to the Internal SD card storage. Format the ExternalSD card to Internal Format at your own risk.
When formatting /data, the default behavior is that /data/media is not deleted. In order to wipe /data/media, you need to either go to TWRP > Wipe > Advanced wipe > Format data, or delete the folder manually through the file manager in TWRP.
TWRP > Wipe > Advanced wipe > Format data is also needed if you plan to use device encryption, because this step allows for a space at the end of /data to contain the encryption information. Without this, encryption will fail!
IMPORTANT: If you have flashed a modified PIT file, flash back the STOCK PIT. You can also return to stock by using Odin and a Factory Image.
If you are trying to get back to the stock partitioning:
Flash a stock TWRP recovery ZIP or IMG file, or use Odin to push a TAR recovery over. After doing this you need to reboot your device into Recovery to load up the newly flashed version, and format each of the partitions to their defaults (ext4, for the most part). If you encounter errors formatting, reboot back into Recovery and try again.
Check SamMobile.com for stock ROM packages. (There is a Stock ROM version in my AFH account which should be used for recovery purposes only.) Odin should also find the device if it's in download mode and you can flash a stock ROM back on it if you want.
If you are not sure you used the correct recovery or you just want to check the partition structure (I may ask for this), you can run each of these commands from an adb prompt, and save the output to a file for linking in the thread for help/analysis:
blkid
cat /proc/mounts
df
INSTALLATION STEPS:
Here is what you need to do; please follow the below steps carefully!
Connect your device to your computer and FULLY BACK UP YOUR FILES from both your Internal and External Storage!
While you are backing up your files, download the following files to your computer:
A custom TWRP recovery for virtually partitioned ROMs (see Post 2).
The ROM zip file (see Post 2).
A 6.0 Gapps package, pico recommended for now. (optional - see Post 2).
Copy all of these files to your device's External SD card. If you don't have an External SD card, then you will need to copy them over from your computer after formatting your internal storage.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP!
Using your EXISTING RECOVERY, format /system, /data, /cache and /Internal Storage.
Flash a VIRTUAL REPARTITIONED RECOVERY.
REBOOT to Recovery to use the new one.
Select Wipe > Advanced Wipe > System, then press the "Repair or change file system" button. Choose "Change File System" and select EXT4. Swipe to apply.
Press the back button and verify the Size: and Free: values at the top. The System partition should be 2GB. Press the Repair button and swipe to apply.
For good measure, now press the Resize button and swipe to apply.
Repeat steps 1-3 for the Data partition, choosing EXT4 or F2FS as the file system, then Repair and finally Resize.
Repeat steps 1-3 for the Cache partition, choosing EXT4 or F2FS as the file system, then Repair and finally Resize.
Reboot to Recovery and wipe /system again.
Flash the CandySiX zip
Flash Gapps (nano or pico Open GApps or BaNks ones, etc.). You may have to experiment a little.
Reboot and Enjoy
Please give first boot a good several minutes. If you get stuck at the boot animation for a long time, try removing your ExternalSD card and reboot without it.
IMPORTANT - PROBLEMS/ISSUES:
If you have issues, I need the following:
Logs from you (logcat, last_kmsg, dmesg) linked to on pastebin.com or hasteb.in, showing the failure.
A clear description of the steps that I need to take to exactly reproduce the problem.
State what flavor build you are on: CMTE, Layers, OMS, etc...
Please DO NOT complain about problems and offer nothing to help fix it. I reserve the right to ignore you for not following insructions...
NO ETA REQUESTS!
Special thanks to @gimmeitorilltell, @bryan2894, CyanogenMod, SlimRoms, Omni and all the rest who make their source open, we can't do this on our own.

FAQ/Info
Due to several requests, here is some further information...
DISABLE HARDWARE CAPACITIVE KEYS AND LIGHTS
NOTE: This information is now outdated, as I've added ROM features for it. I'll leave it here, but hidden for now...
Several have asked about this. I am working on an in-ROM setting for each, but I simply haven't had the time. For now you can do it manually if you like.
If you decide to try/use the following instructions, please understand that you do this entirely at your own risk
Some people like to use the NavBar soft keys (on-screen). If this is you, below you will find some commands you can use to disable the built-in Hardware Keys and Hardware Key Lights.
***NOTE: Both the HW Keys switch and the HW Key Lights switch are a WIP and do not currently work properly!
Using adb or a terminal emulator app (or the built-in one that you can install in your app drawer by enabling Settings > Developer Options > Local terminal), issue the commands under the HW Keys option you want to apply.
For each item listed, copy/paste or type the commands, one line at a time, and EXACTLY as they are shown. Press ENTER after each command.
Open adb or the terminal emulator app and issue the following commands to start a shell with root access. Press ENTER after each command.
(Be sure to accept any Superuser root access propmpts you receive while doing this.)
Code:
adb shell
su root
Now issue one or a combination of the following:
To DISABLE Hardware Touch KEYS:
Code:
echo 0 > /sys/class/sec/sec_touchkey/keypad_enable
To ENABLE Hardware Touch KEYS:
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/class/sec/sec_touchkey/keypad_enable
You should be able to use the ScreenFilter app from the Play Store to disable the HW Key lights. You can even disable the Screen Filter notifications if you like (long-press on the notification, then select the "i" button), but beware this could trick you later.
Enjoy!
Let me know how this works out for you folks. I still need Mobile Data tested and please remember it's Alpha right now, so I need logs when things aren't working.
Thanks for your work. I'm excited for testing this rom.

It is a WIP right now, and there will be more Candy goodness added soon... Hopefully everything works for the Herc since I don't own one (but I have a Skyrocket and have actually flashed Herc ROMs on it )
Stand by... new build compiling now... seems something was missing for Mobile Data to work. I'll update the d/l link when ready.
EDIT: New build is up, and Mobile Data works. Happy New Year!
@NoSpamDan
candy6, thanks for the great work , u really rock man
Just a heads-up, make sure you grab this build or newer for now: CandySiX-alpha-hercules-OFFICIAL-0101-06.zip
(The previous "UNOFFICIAL" builds had broken vendor blobs and no mobile data.)
EDIT: I have updated Post 2 with a modified BanKs Dynamic GApps version that has the keyboard libraries removed. Temporarily fixes the AOSP keyboard FC. You can get Google Keyboard after setting up your account on the Play Store...
Gonna try this soon.
My assessments after set up.............this rom is rocking crazy fast than cm13 (no offense) even when browsing and using play store.
Issues for me:
1. One issue is the constant show of "sd card" info after reboot (am cool with that for now).
2. No navigation bar toggle (my captivative navigation is off and I use on screen navigation to get around everytime).
3. No DPI change option (Know will come with time as above but I hate the 240 default ,too big for me)
But with Xposed, I managed to fix all of the above with the exception of "sd card" constant nagging.
This rom rocks, will update if I find any issues.
Thanks.

I would call those preferences, not issues...
1. Swipe away the notification unless you have not initially set up the card (you didn't quote the notification message you are getting).
2. Nav bar is in the next build... are your touch light buttons broken?
3. DPI may be forthcoming, not sure.
EDIT: Navbar does not appear to be present in the new build. Looking into it.
New build is up in Post 2: CandySiX-alpha-hercules-OFFICIAL-0102-16.zip
This one has Quick Settings Tile Customization, Status Bar mods, Battery mods... more features to come in the near future!

About the first build if we talk about performance, you can put beta because the rom works super fast. For a fledgling rom it is excellent. It would alfa because it lacks certain configurations and features (such as screen capture, buttons Turn off lights ...) but it is significant that installs Facebook, which in other roms including lollipop did not occur. Thanks!

Depends what version you are runnig because Vol Dn. + Power has always been for screenshot, plus in my last build, there were Power menu customizations like Screen Shot for those who prefer that method. Look in Settings > Candy Interface.
CandySiX was maturing on the previous CyanogenMod base but the decision was made to switch to an AOSP base. Come CAF repos are needed and still some CM too, but things are speeding back into shape! Next build should have NavBar (I hope). Will be testing soon.
New build up in Post 2 with working Navigation Bar and some other things - CandySiX-alpha-hercules-OFFICIAL-0103-04.zip. Things will be slowing down here shortly once I return to work...
New build with more features is in Post 2: CandySiX-alpha-hercules-OFFICIAL-0105-05.zip
Sorry, no time to outline the changes but should have Quick Unlock, new boot animation and several other updates...
EDIT: Seems like there is no boot animation, but it indeed boots...
I'm looking into it, but in the interim you can flash the stock Google one:

Flashed the bootanimation zip now stuck in bootloop..
Anyways awesome ROM!
Fast and stable
Thanks for this.. =)
2 issues though: a) phone reboots when using camera flash (perhaps on low battery)
b) external SD card is not mounted it only shows as a portable storage - no ext SD in gallery etc.

Bootloop? Please explain further, because it's not the boot animation file. I personally flashed the boot animation zip found in the downloads section and it works perfectly.
If you get in bootloop or have a camera flash issue (if it wasn't because of low battery), plug the device into your PC and get a dmesg log while in an adb shell, or reboot to recovery and pull a /proc/last_kmsg log. Also log the issue with logcat and post the logs on pastebin, providing the links here please. I can't fix what I can't reproduce or see in a log.
If you formatted your external SD card as portable that is how it will be used... (not as internal). Try reformatting it within the ROM.
Cheers!

My bad.. I may have done something wrong tweaking settings and stuff. I changed DPI, it got bootloop, I formatted external card using TWRP VP, it got bootloop, etc. I reflashed ROM, Gapps and bootanimation. Now it's working fine.

I've switched to google camera app and the problem is gone. (Even with low battery)

Honestly, I didn't know that marshmallow has introduced the new portable function for External SD. I was looking for the old way of External SD mount (I don't know what to call it.) again it was my fault.
plug the device into your PC and get a dmesg log while in an adb shell, or reboot to recovery and pull a /proc/last_kmsg log. Also log the issue with logcat and post the logs on pastebin, providing the links here please. I can't fix what I can't reproduce or see in a log.

I didn't post the logs because the problems were caused by my side. I shouldn't have disabled some apps and flashed boot animation after using the rom.
As you might have figured out i'm a noob (guilty! I know I deserve to die! =P ), one more thing, there's no youtube, calender, calculator and browser apps included in the package/rom. Or is it just me?
This is a perfect rom.
Many Thanks!
