JIT ENABLED and working

READ BEFORE TRYING
I am cdma hero user and it works very well for me. This should work on gsm hero. I pulled this from HERE, it was for the Milestone Android phone which is a GSM phone.
Before enabling
*Change home laucher
*Delete htc lock screen
see below if you dont no how
Jit does not work with htc sense, it will give you many problems. I suggest using Helix launcher from market (free and its what i use daily with no issues). You can also try GDE and nexus launcher, or really anything other then sense.
To change launchers go to setting>applications>manage apps>htc sense And clear defaults. Press home and choose a different launcher.
OR download "Home Switcher" from market.. Its a free app that lets you change between launchers.
JIT does not like any HTC apps.. So delete your HtcLockScreen by doing this.
Code:
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk
Here is the htc lock screen if you want it back
HtcLockScreen
JIT is in no way perfect on our htc hero's so MAKE A BACKUP before trying.
And you could very well run into TONS of problems, its just something to test out.
Though if used right, you wont have any problems. I use this daily.
THIS IS FOR JIT
Download: *View attachment vmlibs.zip*
Then follow these steps:
•Create 2 folders on your sdcard: “jit” & “dalbk”
•Extract the vmlibs.zip to the “jit” folder on your sdcard
•Using ADB pull your build.prop
Code:
adb remount
ADB pull /system/build.prop build.prop
-It will place the file in your c:/android/tools folder
-Edit this using notepad or similiar program.
•Add the following line to the end of the build.prop: dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit
-Save the changes and move it to the directory c:/
•Push it back to your “jit” folder on the sdcard
Code:
ADB push C:\build.prop /sdcard/jit/build.prop
This will back up your current files. So you can disable jit.
Code:
ADB shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock6 /system
cp /system/build.prop /sdcard/dalbk/
cp /system/bin/dalvikvm /sdcard/dalbk/
cp /system/lib/libdvm.so /sdcard/dalbk/
cp /system/lib/libnativehelper.so /sdcard/dalbk/
This will enable jit on your phone.
Code:
cd /sdcard/jit/bin
cp -f dalvikvm /system/bin/
busybox chmod 755 /system/bin/dalvikvm
cd /sdcard/jit
cp -f libdvm.so /system/lib/
cp -f libnativehelper.so /system/lib/
cat build.prop >/system/build.prop
chmod 644 /system/lib/libdvm.so
chmod 644 /system/lib/libnativehelper.so
chmod 666 /system/build.prop
sync
reboot
WIPE DALVIK CACHE AFTER ENABLING JIT.. This will cause your phone from sometimes going into a boot loop.
You dont have to wipe your whole phone.. Only dalvik cache. Your phone will take awhile to reboot since its rebuilding dalvik. Be patient. If it eventually freezes then reboot and it should go through fine after that.
TO DISABLE:
This should disable JIT and return phone back to defualt
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard/dalbk/
cat build.prop >/system/build.prop
cp -f dalvikvm /system/bin
busybox chmod 755 /system/bin/dalvikvm
cp -f libdvm.so /system/lib/
cp -f libnativehelper.so /system/lib/
chmod 644 /system/lib/libdvm.so
chmod 644 /system/lib/libnativehelper.so
chmod 666 /system/build.prop
sync
reboot
Post For help if the disabling gives you any problems.. If it does you can always do back up of your rom that you should of made.

Awesome.. I really hope that some of the hero devs can optimize this for the hero.

I am hoping this also. Most devs dont work on things like this, or know enough about it to fix it.
The only real problem I have had was using htc widgets, htc sense, and htc lockscreen. When I use other home screens, and delete the htc lockscreen, I can run error free with JIT enabled.

Everything is really instant. I clicked and then closed and clicked and closed multiple apps on my screen and it never hung up or lagged.
Before jit, it was pretty quick but every once in a while would slow up on opening or closing, or switching apps specialy when recieving a call or text at the same time.
One example is. Before jit I was using the yellowpages app with voice command and it would take forever loading voice and then entering what i said into the text box. I tested with jit and it was all pretty instant and never paused or lagged after multiple test.
I posted this on cdma hero and this hero, it gets alot of views but no one seems to actually been trying it and posting about it.
I would like to know what kind of improvements its makes from JIT disabled and JIT enabled for other people.
I understand you all have completely different roms so the numbers can't be directly compared. But the improvement between stock and JIT should show some resemblance from my rom and gsm roms.

OK, I'm also one of the readers
The most important thing why I do not try it to use is, that I wanna held the "Sense UI".
Thats would be also the main reason for the other readers

Yeah I understand. I was one of those people. But I have come to like the helix launcher and beautiful widgets combination. I dont use any of the htc widgets other then the clock, which has a replacement for it.
Also over in cdma hero, many of the people use other launchers and dont use htc sense. Just for speed or personal favorites. I dont know how it is with here.
You can also disable jit very easily by changing the build.prop and having all htc widgets and sense usable agian.

when i do this "mount -o remount,ro /dev/mtd/mtdblock6 /system" it says
mount: device or resource busy
Also how does one get the $ sign whenever i type adb shell it automatically goes to the next line showing me #
Also after running these commands my hero boots but get stuck when i try to unlock the screen by dragging it down, is this not compatible with roise? im running Be hero 1.2.6 which is an ERIS port(2.1).

then $ means you are logged in as an unprivileged user, the # indicates that you are root. so if you get # after opening adb shell that is fine, you can skip the 'su' command then.

The error i received to, dont worry about it.
Yes mine goes to #, ill edit the instructions.
And after it reboots to the screen. Press menu to unlock your phone, DO NOT SLIDE.. It rarely works sliding.
And once you press menu, go to settings, applications, manage applications. Find htc sense, and CLEAR DEFAULT...
Then go to the market and download helix launcher.. You need to do all of this if you want NO force closes and no problems. Once its installed you can press home and select helix as default. Reverse the step to put htc sense back on.
If you really want to use sense ui, you must disable JIT.. Boot up your phone, let it load to the lockscreen. Dont touch anything. Do the steps to edit build.prop and do
TO DISABLE:
CHANGING THIS IN build.prop... This should disable JIT (I have not tested this yet, will post if this works later)
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:jit
To:
dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast
push it back to your phone, and reboot

Thank you Kendong2 for replying, I was typing it out when you posted. I didnt know you had helped already.
If anyone does try this, feel free to post what home screen launcher and what errors you come across. Other then htc related things.

I just enabled JIT. Doing some tests now.

Alright, this are the results in a "real world" environment:
JIT DISABLED/JIT ENABLED:
NeoCore with sound: 24.4/24.4
NeoCore without sound: 28.8/28.8
Softweg GPU test: 117/116
Lag test: 41/40
Linpack: 2.312/3.663
The only noticeable result was with Linpack, let's say, RAW processing power. All the graphics benchmarks show same performance with JIT enabled. I guess it's a good thing then right?

Just enabled it as well... will test and report

now running alright and seems to be stable. can't tell too much of a difference at the moment but here is the result from linpack.
ahero v0.71 with 64MB swap
Configured with: debugger profiler hprof with_jit show_exception=1
BSK

Is an update.zip possible ? I'm at work, can't use adb right now

ok, im trying to disable it but cannot?
where do i have to change from jit to fast? in the build.prop from sd card right?

@Arkymedes
if you edit build.props in /sdcard/jit then whilst your in that directory do a :
cat build.prop >/system/build.prop
chmod 666 /system/build.prop
sync
reboot
once you have rebooted, it might be worthwhile going back into adb shell and typing this :
dalvikvm -h
i think you should not see "with_jit" in the last line.

Followed every step that you mentioned...
After reboot that's what I get in the last line after "dalvikvm -h":
Configured with: debugger profiler hprof with_jit show_exception=1
PS: anyway, I think it's disabled since the scores in Linpack are the normal ones, around 2.250 or something.
Well well...

I just enabled this and after first reboot absolutely everything crashes and I can't get past the lockscreen. Rebooting again now.
EDIT: Same again next reboot. Am on Androbin 2.1 Vanilla ROM

@Arkymedes
if you followed the instructions you should have backups in the /sdcard/dalbk/ folder. just use the instructions again to put them all back.
but it looks like it's not now using the JIT you just copied across anyway.

Wireless-N on the Desire

I noticed this in the Evo forums. The Desire uses the bcm4329 wifi chipset, exactly like the Evo. We should be able to enable Wireless-N using this method. Has anyone tried this already?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=707218
Summarised below:
chuckhriczko said:
Update: Thanks to Calkulin there are now flashable zips on my blog post as well as just the driver. Just flash them like any other update.zip file.
So the Evo's WiFi chip supports Wireless N technology, which allows for faster throughput on your WiFi connection. To use this you obviously need a Wireless N capable AP or router. Basically, for some reason (I am going to assume battery life?), HTC decided to disable the wireless n capability of this chip but this can be fixed. Since we don't have the source for the driver we need to use a hex editor. Note, if using AOSP wireless n will already be enabled using the AOSP driver. But if you are using a Sense rom then you will need to do the following. Also I am including a download link with the driver that you can just push if you don't want to get dirty with a hex editor. Anyway, here we go:
1. Download a hex editor (I just googled hex editor and downloaded this one: http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm)
2. Go into a command prompt or shell and perform:
Code:
adb pull /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko ./bcm4329.ko.old
adb pull /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko ./bcm4329.ko
This will pull the file and make a backup in case you need to replace the backup.
3. In your hex editor open the file you just pulled. Now, in two spots HTC added 'nmode' in here to disable Wireless N. All we have to do is modify this string to be any other 5 character string and wireless N will be enabled. I did a search and replace and replaced 'nmode' with '-----' (Note: Do not include the single quotes).
4. Save the file.
5. Perform the following in a command prompt or shell:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb push bcm4329.ko /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
Now wireless N should be enabled on your device. If not, restart it and try. If you ever want to restore your original just perform the following:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system
adb push bcm4329.ko.old /system/lib/modules/bcm4329.ko
.
Below is the download link for the already modified wireless driver.
http://objectunoriented.com/android/?p=35

Click to collapse
I suspect this was disabled as it puts a further drain on the battery, but I would certainly like to get wireless-n working on my Desire.

Never mind. I just found this was already posted in the development forum.

Screen calibration config

I'd like to know where are stored the parameters of the screen calibration.
I ask this because at every reboot they reset to factory default so I want to mod it directly.
Kisses to all

seems to be stored in
Code:
/data/data/org.isageek.dasbrennen.CalibrateScreen/databases/calvalues
which is a sqlite database (which I know nothing about!)
You could try making a copy of it before and after rebooting and see if it changes (binary diff). If it does, maybe you could replace it on every boot in your userinit .sh
If not, maybe the CalibrateScreen app just needs to be started to load the custom values, but you could probably do that on startup too.

Thank you very much for your reply, however I was trying to figure out the place where these values are stored into android system and not into the app... because I think that the app it's only a bridge for the real calibration of the system... or maybe I'm wrong?

For some reason, I assumed it was a built in part of the system, but it's not!
Anyway, your question has got me interested now, so I took CalibrateScreen.apk from Scoot's CM6.1 build, decompiled the apk with apktool and searched the source for "write"
I believe the values you are looking for are
Code:
/sys/class/vogue_ts/xmin
/sys/class/vogue_ts/xmax
/sys/class/vogue_ts/ymin
/sys/class/vogue_ts/ymax
(found in CalibrateScreen/smali/org/isageek/dasbrennen/CalibrateScreen/Calibrator.smali)
so you could just add
Code:
echo NUMBER > /sys/class/vogue_ts/xmin
etc. etc.... to your userinit.sh

could you upload the standard calibrate file to me ?
I dont understand why my kaiser seem to be crazy because touch screen seem to be rotate 90 degrees. it mean .... the app button ( in the center of the bottom screen ) will become middle of the left screen. I mean if I want to touch app button, I must touch the middle left of the screen
I cant do anything with this !!!
Fuk my kaiser >.< sorry for my bad emotion !!!

Those are the steps I did, so I wrote "copied".
Just follow those steps, nothing more to do
Basically, you need to run the calibration screen app, then you copy the 5 files in "/sys/class/vogue_ts" to your sd card root in order to be more handy and do those steps.

actually i cant speak english properly. but ill try to answer ur questions.
i have a stupid solution for the problem of calibrating the screen. i use Incubus26Jc's Super Froyo 2.2 [Deodexed] [RLS15] on my kaiser.
i do the screen calibration once a week. for the screen calibration on my android, will appear a black screen with two red dots on the screen to the left top, and bottom right. all i have to do is touch one red spot twice, until the recalibration text does not appear. (or other writings that tell you to re-calibration).
finished ...!!! what i have to do is press the "OK" to apply. i hope now ur screen is not mad anymore.

Awesome! my Kaiser 100 now holds screen calibration, even after a dead battery or a power cycle. Really enjoying Dark_Prince's Froyo 2.2.2 on this AT&T tilt. But the method of creating a androidupdate.tar did not work for me. The update reported it worked as a success, then a fix permission seemed to finish, but still no calibration save.
This is what worked on my device:
As TuoNonno said I copied the four files containing the needed values, and in the end I went to market and got a file manager that had root permissions and edited ' /system/bin/userinit.sh ' to reflect the values those four files held.
my userinit.sh on my device now looks like this:
Code:
/bin/umount /bin/su
/bin/umount /system/bin/su
busybox mount -o rw,remount /system
echo 1345 > /sys/class/vogue_ts/xmin
echo 3387 > /sys/class/vogue_ts/xmax
echo 334 > /sys/class/vogue_ts/ymin
echo 3615 > /sys/class/vogue_ts/ymax
chmod 04777 /system/bin/su
chmod 04777 /sys/class/vogue_ts
busybox mount -o ro,remount /system
/bin/mount --bind /system/bin/su /bin/su
Not sure if that is the 'proper' way to fix, but it surely seems to work - I no longer have to use the physical buttons to navigate to and open the screen calibrate app.
Thank you to all that had a part in developing this fix. The knowledge of the gurus on this forum is outstanding!

[Q] Internet was working, upon reboot stopped

Hello all,
I'd like to preface this by saying this is a Cricket phone. Even if you know nothing about Cricket you may be able to help, so please read on. Note: because it's a Cricket phone I'm using autostart and a script to connect to the internet.
So a few days ago I messed up my phone to the point where it wouldn't boot. After that I had to learn how to flash (I didn't know before) and so I'm very new to all of this.
Here's what I've done:
- I flashed to the official 2.2, EC05
- I restored my data from my old nandroid backup
- I edited my phone's PRL and then went into QPST and changed the info so it will connect to the internet
- I copied autostart.sh to /data/opt/ and made sure the /opt/ director is 777 and the autostart.sh is 755
- I copied u2nl to /system/bin/ and made sure it was 755
I don't really have any questions about any of that because after I did this and restarted the internet was working fine. It worked fine for a few hours, then I had to restart my phone and now all of the sudden it's not working.
Autostart is launching when the phone starts, and it's being given superuser permissions, but the internet is not working.
- I can see the 3g symbol at the top of my phone, and arrows move in both directions
I think it might be an app that I've got installed that's blocking connectivity, however I've been disabling them and I'm still not getting anywhere. Does anyone have any clue why this could be happening?
Just wanted to edit and also ask: if it is an app blocking my connectivity, why did it work at all? The first time I restarted after granting autostart superuser ability, the internet worked fine for hours and hours. It was only after I restarted the phone again that the internet went away.
Thanks.

Maybe its with autostart app. Maybe something got changed when your phone booted up and now its affecting your internet. Is anything working that involves a data connection?

Nothing that involves data is working, but everything (internet and data) was working when I first restarted the phone.
After playing with it all day I thought the AutoKiller app might have been causing the problems, but then this evening it got even worse. Initially my AutoStart app would run on boot, but the internet wouldn't work. Now the AutoStart app isn't even running on boot, and I'm 100% sure I've got it installed. I removed all apps that had anything to do with apps that run on boot or data control, and it still won't run on boot.
I don't really understand why but this AutoStart app will not consistently AutoStart anymore, and even when it did a few hours ago the data connection would only work on the first restart, and then it would AutoStart but the connection wouldn't work.
Does anyone have any idea? It's a pain in the butt to have a smartphone that doesn't do anything except text/calls

Maybe try to Clear you Cache in CWM. I had to do that once because I lost data.
Maybe even try doing a Fix Permissions in CWM.
hopefully it is this easy. If not sorry :O

For anyone who is interested I believe I have solved the problem.
According to a few other people here on the forums the stock 2.2 does not allow Autostart to work, so it may work once or twice but will not regularly work.
I got around this by using the Locale Execute Plugin which is a plugin written for the Locale app, however it can be used independently of the Locale app (read: you do not have to buy the Locale app, you can download the Execute plugin free and use it without Locale). I used Tasker to setup an On Boot trigger, and have it running the Locale Execute Script which launches Autostart.sh and allows my internet to connect.
I noticed the internet was still acting funny and removed my Autokiller app as well as my Phone Prioritizer app (I was using this to make sure my actual phone had priority over all other apps, it was running a script every 30 minutes). The internet seems to be functioning well now.
Here is a copy of my autostart.sh file (create a file called autostart.sh and edit it with notepad, copy and paste this code then save)
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
export PROXYHOST=wap.mycricket.com
export PROXYPORT=8080
export MMSHOST=mms.mycricket.com
export MMSPORT=80
#you shouldn't have to edit anything below this line
export PATH="$PATH:/system/bin"
until netcfg|grep -v DOWN|awk '{print $1}'|grep -v wlan|grep -v lo >/dev/null 2>&1 ; do sleep 1 ; done
export INTERFACE=`netcfg|grep -v DOWN|awk '{print $1}'|grep -v wlan|grep -v lo`
export PROXYIP=`ping -c 1 $PROXYHOST|grep PING|cut -d\) -f1|cut -d\( -f2`
export MMSIP=`ping -c 1 $MMSHOST|grep PING|cut -d\) -f1|cut -d\( -f2`
iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
iptables -F
iptables -t nat -F
iptables -X
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o $INTERFACE -p 6 -d $MMSIP --dport $MMSPORT -j DNAT --to-destination $MMSIP:$MMSPORT
#iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o $INTERFACE -p 6 --dport 80 -j DNAT --to-destination $PROXYIP:$PROXYPORT
iptables -t nat -A OUTPUT -o $INTERFACE -p 6 ! -d $PROXYIP ! --dport $PROXYPORT -j REDIRECT --to-port 1025
u2nl $PROXYIP $PROXYPORT 127.0.0.1 1025 >/dev/null 2>&1 &
sh -c "sleep 5;kill `ps|grep nk.bla.android.autostart|grep -v grep|awk '{print $2}'`" >/dev/null 2>&1 &
exit 0
Here's a step-by-step breakdown of what I did:
I used:
Tasker (paid app)
Locale Execute Plugin (free app - (link)(link2))
Root Explorer (paid app)
Patience
- Created autostart.sh file and copied it to my SD card
- Copied u2nl file to the SD card (link - download the token419_cricket_data_setup_1.2.zip, it's located in system/bin/ within that zip)
- Opened the "Root Explorer" app and copied the Autostart.sh file, then browsed to /data/ and created a folder called "opt".
- Pasted autostart.sh in /data/opt/ and made sure it was 755 (long press then go to permissions and check User: read/write/execute, Group: read/execute, Others: read/execute).
- Copied u2nl from the SD card and pasted it to /system/bin/ on my phone, made sure it also had 755 permissions
- Downloaded Locale Execute Plugin (link)(link2)
(note: since your phone is not connected to the internet, connect to a wifi network to download this app from the market)
- Launched Tasker and created a new rule > event > system > device boot
- Added an action > plugin > execute
- Entered "@!/data/opt/autostart.sh" and saved (the @ tells it to not send you a popup when it runs, the ! gives it superuser permissions)
- Saved by pushing the back arrow on my phone's touchscreen
- Clicked "apply"
- Rebooted, and clicked "allow" when Locale Execute Plugin requested superuser permissions
That's it, my internet started working after this. I had to remove those other previously mentioned apps, but that was just me. If your internet isn't working after doing this, first make sure you did everything right. If it's still not working try to think of any apps you have that might be overwriting the autostart.sh file's settings. If worst comes to worst, start uninstalling apps until it works again. Reboots will be required after you uninstall an app.
Hopefully this helps someone out there.

Glad u got it man.

[Q] How-To Lock SemcPhone and Contacts.apk to Memory

Hi,
I'm trying to lock Contacts and Phone app to memory.
So they will start faster. I don't want to wait for them to open. ( Sometimes it tooks a long time )
If is there anyother way to do it but locking it ( like keeping it alive, running in backgorund or something ) i can try.
This is really important for me. I need to make calls fast.
Thank you so much for reading.
Best Regards.

I researched some more and found this,
adb pull /init.rc
replace "setprop ro.HOME_APP_MEM ..." with:
setprop ro.HOME_APP_MEM 1536
adb push init.rc /sdcard/init.rc
adb shell
# mount -o remount,ro rootfs /
# cat /sdcard/init.rc | tee /init.rc
# mount -o remount,rw rootfs /
# rm /sdcard/init.rc
This code can lock Sense home to memory. Maybe someone with skill can change it for Contacts.apk ?

Use this script http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991276
You can 'bulletproof'any app.

I couldn't find a option to lock anyapp to memory in there ?
I know what it is, and im also using it right now but where is the lock option ?
It can lock Home app to memory but not any app i want ?
Thank you so much for answering.

Use the 'bulletproof app' option (17 in rc6.9), select the apps you want.

Will it work on ICS BETA ROM ?

Works on Z's aosp ics, so should do. Home can't be locked using it, but any app can be bulletproofed

Hi again,
Tried it and it works like a charm !
Thank you so much for solution !
I also posted it in Developer's section.
Now my Phone,Contacts and Messaging apps (sony's original ones) are bulletproofed with this script.
Best Regards.
