As Nathan is away for the weekend there has been various update.zip hot fixes made in his absence to fix tiny bugs and problems.
Please go to this link to find these http://www.villainrom.kriev.com/
There are fixes for Apps2SD issues (if you have any) as well as removing the flashing trackball lights (if it bothers you that much)
Thanks goes out to all those involved in these fixes, and hosting them.
Thank you for your time

I haven't tried Benham's build without the changes, so I couldn't tell you.
The first blindingly obvious difference is that all apps show in the market.
Other than that, it should be slightly quicker right from the go... but give it 2-3 days, and I'll HUGELY improve the speed.
Updates should all be no-wipe, too
Great Work, Can't wait for the speed tweaks!

Hi Nathan,
I presume you have no issue with me 'holding the fort' while you're at the weddings? (ie. Any hotfixes or update.zips as discovered.
I'll use this thread, or new site if it gets sorted...
Hopefully we'll hear from the guy offering the villainrom domain. i suggested a php bug tracker. Just to keep it easier to see any bugs...

CyanogenMod 6 Kaiser [RLS5.2] - RC2 based, odex:ed build [6.8.2010]
This release is based on CyanogenMod 6 RC2, modified to be Kaiser & Polaris friendly (and hopefully Vogue too). Parts of other releases, mostly dzo's Fresh Froyo are also used.
What's new:
RLS5.1:
- Completely re-done release, based on CyanogenMod 6 RC2 FRF91
- System completely odex:ed (thanks kallt_kaffe for all your help with this)
- Google Apps FRF91 MDPI
- Wifi tethering - courtesy of urban69 and kallt_kaffe.
- Removed most of the "bonus" apps except Astro File Manager, due to /system size limit. To get YR Weather Widget, Brut Maps, Linpack or Nexusrevamped Live Walpaper dowload the AppPack.zip here, unzip the files to your SD card and install via Astro..
- Experimental libhtcgeneric-ril.so to enable 2G/3G switching (again all credits to kallt_kaffe) included. The enable/disable "2G mode only" switch in settings now works!!
For best performance enable compcache in Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Performance. If you want to squeeze even more out of it disable dithering, also in Settings > CyanogenMod Settings > Performance.
Download RLS5.1: Mediafire, FileFactory or Megaupload!
Update RLS5.2
-New version of experimental libhtcgeneric-ril.so to enable 2G/3G switching (again all credits to kallt_kaffe) included
RLS5 and RLS5.1 can be updated to RLS5.2 via update attached below: rls5_rls5-2_update.zip.
What works:
Everything should be working as in other Froyo builds. But I may have missed someting - if so, please report!
- Phone: calls, SMS, standard stuff..
- Camera
- BT & BT audio
- Wifi
- Email
- MMS
- Exchange sync, Google sync
- Market
- GPS & Wireless (WiFi or Data) location
- JIT
- Compacache
- et cetera..
Installation:
Put the androidinstall.tar to /andboot folder and install to SD / NAND. SD users will find complete SD HaRET distro attached below, with zImage-froyo-26-07-10 (HaRET.zip). Edit default.txt according to your needs and wishes, but it should be o.k. for most Kaiser users (except panel and battery parameters - fix those). Polaris users should edit default-polaris.txt for Polaris. Vogue users need to use their standard default.txt.
I've tested RC5 on SD (ext2/ext2) install, so I really don't know how it will work on NAND.
If you have problems with Wifi connections, you can try other power levels using script made by kallt_kaffe:
Code:
$ sudo
# wifi_level.sh low|medium|high
To switch between Froyo | Eclair | Paid Market, use a script market.sh, made by kallt_kaffe:
Code:
$ su
# market.sh eclair|froyo|paid
There is a small DeskClock.apk issue in RLS5.X. To get back DeskClock.apk from RLS4, which is o.k. for our resolution, apply attached DeskClock_fix.zip.
Screenshots:
Check them out at CyanogenMod 6 screens page.
Credits go to:
- mssmision for porting CyanogenMod 6 for our devices and all the other work his done
- dzo for his kernels and Froyo releases - without you man there would be no Vogue/Kaiser Android community
- kallt_kaffe for many many contributions he made to Android Vogue/Kaiser community
- Incubus26Jc also for his fine builds and many contributions made to Android Vogue/Kaiser community
- Brut.all for his Maps mod
- DmK75 for the default.txt for Polaris and all the other contributions his done in testing and delivering fixes for this build. Thx man!
- Complete Vogue/Kaiser community
Thank you guys for your great work and sorry for stealing your ideas and soultions, but they're just to tempting not to be used and abused.
I'd be glad to get as much of your feedback as possible. Enjoy!
============================================================

Nice work! Sometime I will try this build.
Just about the best i've tried yet.
This is by far the most responsive version i've tried yet and i've spent about two days trying all the versions mentioned in the
"Android Build Index - Look here before asking" -I can't post the link-
I'm trying this on NAND. I can't get Wifi to work on my kaiser but i'm going to keep playing around with this one.
Love the speed.
Oh, what is the name of the female football picture/wallpaper?
Hi,
I will try it on my Pola.
This build is useful for using bluetooth speakerphone in car?
Chick wallpaper.
http://bit.ly/acABBj
wifi won't start. It just states "error"
@nemuro are you a Kaiser or Polaris user and did you apply my update?
Best yet!!
I'm not sure how, but Wifi is now working. It may have something to do with fixing permisions between a re-install. This version is quick and snappy. My favourite so far!!!

Gonna try it tonight...
Ive been using urban69's rom for 5 days and have enjoyed it although am having application fc's frequently and still dealing with the battery issues....I'll try this on Nand tonight and reply back....Thanks for all your work!!!
If it weren't for all of you dev's we'd be in tech limbo!!!
First of all...Im new to installing Android on Kaiser, so sorry for stupid q's and stuff...
Ive installed it on a danish Tytn II, it works, with some errors...

2. No marked...Weird i think
3. Battery stuck at 15%
4. i sometimes have problems answering calls...
Think that was it for now...Else its a great build...Thx a lot..

No way! downloading + flashing now!
The download isn't working, page not found i get.. Really like to try this rom on my Hero
Edit: It's working now
WOW! Now it's raining ROMs!
Wow, i am definitely gonna downgrade back to 2.1, these new ones are very sloww
very happy
Woah, it's fast but the thing that's keeping me from sticking with it is that there are loads of HTC widgets missing, bit of a dealbreaker
I was waiting for a reason to go back to 2.1. Thanks!
Thought I would give it a bash tide not too its super quick is all I know so far
Sent from my HTC Hero using Tapatalk
if you have widgets missing, reboot and they should show, what widgets do you have missing?
Also flash (lite) doesn't work. Starting to think the flash 10.1 some people potted across wasn't fake/not working at all...
flash lite should work fine, the 10.1 that people say they "ported" was not real 10.1 as the 10.1 libraries are only available for ARMv7 and tegra, the hero is ARM6
Is there anyway to add en_US United States locale? It's not available when setting up the phone, so I ended up downloading a locale changer from the market and changing it that way. The only problem is, it doesn't stick, when the phone is rebooted it just defaults back to en_GB United Kingdom.
It not a big deal for me, but I figured I'd ask.
The ROM is fast btw!
also looked for an opportunity to downgrade, this is the perfect excuse!
Sorry, could you be more specific about the changes?
I'm really sick of buzzwords like "tweaked" "optimized" "major"...
I think it's good for us, the users, to know the exact changes made on roms.
Thanks

CM7-Hybrid
CM7-Hybrid is built and compiled from CM7 source code with lots of the CM7 extras and other assorted bloatery removed + a custom kernel & numerous tweaks and optimizations added in. It's sleak, it's mean, and it's fast.
Thank you to: Infinitybiff, XxKolohexX, ChromerSmith, Kingklick, Firerat, Cyanogen, HTC, Samsung, Google, Dumfuq, Houka420, The Entire CM Team and contributors and of course the guy that made this all possible JesusFreke. We wouldnt be where we are now if it wasnt for him.
=============================================
Release Name: CM7-Hybrid
Release Version: V. 1.0
Proprietary Files used from: Slayhers CM7 Build - Thank You so Much!!!
Base Firmware: 2.3.7
Kernel Verison: Synergy CyanogenMod 7 Edition V0.03.1
Recovery Required: 3.0.2.7
=============================================
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
- Download the ROM
- Boot into recovery
- Wipe data
- Wipe cache partition
- Wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
-Optional go to mounts, and go through the list formatting everything. If you format your sdcard you will loose everything on it.
- Install from zip / choose zip from SD card / flash it!!
- (optionally) You can let the phone settle for 1-2 mins on initial boot up. IF you are using setCPU, I strongly recommend a fresh reboot and a 1-2 minute settle before auto detecting clock speeds. (see below for more details)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Working:
DATA
WIFI
GPS
BT
Known Issues:
This is an Alpha Build, so these are the things that we found in our rigorous testing. Most these things you will not even notice during your daily use. Trust me its a daily driver still. !!Please!! dont mention/complain or gripe about these issues, yes we know they are broken and not working hence why they are listed just deal with it. You are the one that wanted to try a test build.
Call Sound doesnt work when GPS is turned off - Temp fix leave GPS on
Thank you Sammydr10, for your work finding the GPS fix for audio.
USB connection of SDcard needs to be fixed - Temp fix is use mount sdcard in recovery/use Auto Mount SD app or do not switch to internal memory in CM settings, use the sdcard (which is done by default).
Mounting of emmc - Temp fix use Root Explorer
Netflix freezes - Nothing yet
Any other launcher is having FC problems
Gallery is a bit laggy at first, and may not rotate- toggle orientation/use quickpic for gallery.
When listening to music and receiving a notification, volume does not return to previous levels- Cyanogenmod settings/Sound/Uncheck Notification Focus (mstrk242 helped with this one THANKS)
When using a lockscreen gesture to open directly to camera, the viewfinder looks all wonky and green. Enter gallery and exit and camera will look normal again.
Google music will not stream on 4g it does stream over wifi- Not sure yet.
In quickpic when when attempting to rotate an image to edit it causes force close. - Looking into it.
When using a custom app on the three ring lockscreen, selecting unlock from the middle ring causes reboot: Call your phone unlock to answer then get into settings and change lockscreen preference. Three ring lockscreen does work if you leave the custom app in the middle.
Blurry MMS: Open messaging app enter settings/Custom User Agent/Custom/Android-MMS/2.0

Sweet man nice work!
Haha I moved pages for a minute and it was up! WOOHOO!
Awesome! This may sound like a dumb question, but is there any way to update CWM for our phones? I just flashed the recovery.tar through ODIN, but I think that is only version 3.0.2.5.
Thanks again for all the hard work guys!
I'm glad you guys are here we really need some help thanks.

I'm super stoked to try your team's stuff. Let me say first off that I am a fan of little touches. The updater-script text is very cool and so is the boot animation.
Wow. Good job guys. Still got to wait before I can download..

How? I installed ROM Manager, is it by tapping More Recoveries? It had an error with permissions.
Wait, I'm confused. Our version of CWM is 5.0.2.6, so we have nothing to update then, correct?

// ETA RULES
There is an epic list about ETA rules you should read
HTCDreamOn said:
If he hasn't uploaded it yet, it means it's not ready to be uploaded
If he has uploaded it, then he's uploaded it
If he says he's going to upload it, if he hasn't uploaded it before then, then of course he hasn't uploaded it yet
If you ask him when it'll be uploaded, he'll tell you either the same time or a later time. NEVER earlier
read that again. He will NEVER upload it earlier if you ask him. Asking him when it will be uploaded does not make it arrive earlier
If it is uploaded earlier than he says, it's not because you asked him. Because he will upload it when it's ready which will not be just because you asked
who actually cares when it will be ready? He has given screenshots of it being compiled and screenshots of it running. It works. He won't forget.
It's a ROM for your phone, worry about other things
If you ask for ETAs, his upload speed will not magically increase
If you know when it'll be uploaded, how does this actually benefit you?
Read a book
Listen to some music
enjoy the ROM you've got
stop asking for ETAs
If he uploads it tonight then it'll be uploaded. If he doesn't then it won't
If he says no then it won't be. If he says yes then it will be the same as whatever ETA he gave before
Learn to code or something
Please stop asking for ETAs
aww man I've been forced to write a non development related post in a dev thread because ETA requests annoy me so much
aww man I forgot when development work was actually discussed in dev threads because of all the ETA requests

please make a section for "known bugs" or issues. going to try this rom tomorrow!
Thanks for the rom! Going to test it out today!
Update: I've tested this rom for less than a day. So far it's rom fairly smooth, not too many hiccups. I think I ran into a force close when I tried to change the wallpaper (no biggy). Keyboards work for me, wifi, sms, mms. So far so good.
Wow! I didn't know that this old chap will get KitKat! Good work all developers! I am going to test it out tomorrow!

You've got 362 mb RAM because it's reserved for radio and other system tasks. All devices' RAM works like this.

Yes, but works on all versions because had the init.d script that active the adreno booster (at least the rom is super fast)

I will fix the keyboard. As I tryed to trim it maybe in some launguages will FC. But I will upload an patch ASAP
Of course that you won't get the full ram space. As @ VaderSKN said, t's reserved for radio and other system tasks. All devices' RAM works like this.
For me works Try to do wipe cache. Did you installed other GApps or mods?
Thnks for the feedback :highfive:
