I'd love to take a look and learn. I have had an account at XDA for a few years now, but they still don't let me post hyperlinks... so I don't really post anything over there. May post a few times just to get the count up so I can post links, hehe.

first post updated. test and report please.

3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.30.10
 

Tiad have you tried the latest (11.30) what have your results been? I'm waiting for a conference call to start so I have to stay in WM for a few hours... just trying to live vicariously till I can try it myself lol.

Also, in the first post you might want to change the latest update text to 11.30 otherwise you'll get alot of people mistakenly asking for the "11.29" update. Make sense? Just a suggestion.

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.30.10
 

I've got a fresh andboot from the 11/22 FRX03 build loaded on my SD card. Haven't booted haret yet. I've replaced the froyo.user.conf file with the new version from post 1. I've dumped the libGLES_qcom.so (11/29) and gralloc.msm7k.so (11/30) file in my root andboot folder. Is that correct? Should i be able to boot now with the new driver and test gralloc? Sorry for the n00b question. Haven't messed with .so files yet.

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.30.10
 

Firsthand I've only messed with the libGLES file and that worked fine from the actual root of the sd card itself, make sure you dont put it in the Andboot folder itself.

I havent seen it written anywhere but I assume the gralloc.so should also work from sd card root in the same way...

For clarification (from an expert: Nate, ACL, Tiad) CAN the 2 .so files work when placed in other folders?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Thanks for the quick response invincible! I think i'll hold off on gralloc for now until i get clarification from ACL. I'll also move the .so files to the SD root instead of andboot.

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

This is the latest gralloc..

i'm using gralloc.msm7k.so.11.30.10.zip.zip and libGLES_qcom.so. 11.29.10.ZIP.zip . looks good. im getting sound on everthing. 3d is work good. no screen tearing and flickering just a little be slower than libGLES_qcom.so.11.26.10.ZIP.zip with out the gralloc. thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Hey guys i was wondering if someone would be kind enough to help me out. I am using neopeek frg83 build and the problem is i do not understand how to make this work?

I have the build where it is the 3 different partitions. android, ext2 and linux swap. android is the one where its like storage card etc and the ext2 is the one with all the system stuff. problem is i dont see that with the regular windows explorer. how do i go about getting in there. i added the 11.29 libgles to the android partion where haret is and the gralloc but there was zero difference in the neocore speeds or in general. what am i doing wrong? Thank you very much!

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

NEOPEEK BUILDS (WINDOWS) (DOWNLOAD WINRAR OR 7 ZIP)
ok. do this. you have two options. 1. sync your phone and travel to your SD card, find the EXT2 tar file. travel to SYSTEM/LIB/EGL/REPLACE THE OLD DRIVER HERE. options 2. turn off your phone, take the SD card out and put into you PC. and do the same. you don't need to update you froyo.user.conf with neopeek build. 1-SYSTEM/LIB/EGL/REPLACE THE OLD DRIVER HERE. 2-SYSTEM/LIB/HW/REPLACE THE OLD GRALLOC HERE. good look. thank you

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Hey tiad how do you mount the gralloc if i am running the xdandroid build? I don't know if i did it right and i probably didn't because all I did was put the gralloc on the root of the sd card. Please explain like you did the last time for me thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

add this to your froyo.user.conf command and don't forget to add gralloc into root. sd card. good luck. thanks

mount --bind /sdcard/gralloc.msm7k.so /system/lib/hw/gralloc.msm7k.so

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

ok i got it thanks a lot again lol and i made sure i hit thanks. Hey just curious will the fps get even faster because it seems very fast already.

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

booted Reefer's 11/22 FRX003, Overclocked to 700Mhz using the startup utility with HW3D, etc, with 11/30 gralloc and 11/29 libGLES

Using FPS2D, I benchmarked it at 20FPS - same as the 11/27 libGLES w/o the updated gralloc. I also benchmarked overall speed using Linkpack where I scored an average of 4.5 MFLOPS. This is better than the 3.5 MFLOPS I was getting with 11/27. Angry Birds is still as slow and choppy as ever.

1. How can I be sure that the new gralloc and libGLES was mounted once I am already in Android?
2. Is there a different utility that I should be using for benchmarking?
3. Is there a specific rootFS that I should be using?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

to be honest i was getting 17.1. no oc and without the driver. now with it, I'm getting 17.9 but everything that use 3d it's smoother for me now. thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

1. pc or or Linux, right click at files then properties then you will see how big are the files in kb. now, in android get astro file manager, travel to your system.ext2. system/lib/egl or hw/
2. I use neocore and quadrant from market.
3. it's good, to be up to date. thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

O I have been getting 19 fps to like 19.2 but i am overclocked to 760 mhz

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

that great. i like to use stock with no oc. thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

I'm still not able to get to my computer so I havent been able to try out the gralloc...

Can you post an edited froyo.user.conf that includes both the gralloc and libGLES commands together?

Thanks for your help!

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Ok,guys. Good news for people that wants to play angry birds lite full power and great speed. I think this game never worked in frx03. Its working really good now. I was working on the build.prop. For frx03 that how i fix it.

The full version it a little fast. Faster than before. For me. Im still testing the entire rom to see if nothing wrong with sound etc ....

Im using, driver 11.26 and grilloc 11.30

You've been THANKED dude!

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

when using xandroid build.prop goes to root of sd card I assume?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Hey tiad is there other things you are able to do to make everything even smoother or do we need a new framebuffer for that?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

i am also on neopeek and do not see the ext2.tar u speak of. looked everywhere on my sd card. i did make 2 partitions, ext2 and lib, but cant access the ext2 partition from windows. those partitions just dont show up. what do i do?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Ok, so ive been digging more and more into angry birds and we wont be able to get it to run like it does on the newever devices. The game itself was designed in a way that it just wont perform well. Some devs on xda actually took apart the game to get the performance increase. Now Rovio said they will work on it but for now i would try out the modded angry birds if you really want a performance gain.

Eventually you will have to run the gralloc and lib that allocate the same amount of memory for the frame buffer. Thats the main difference between all the lib releases 26 is the plain lib, 27 was bumped up just a tad so we can load more but 29 is the correct one which will most likely work with almost anything 3d. The others might flicker or break depending on how the app uses it.

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

ACL - thanks for the note. I am embarrased to ask, but do you have a link to the modded Angry Birds?

Also, besides putting the build.prop in the root SD folder, do I need to reference it in the froyo.conf file?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

ok. guys. for all of you with angry birds problem and won't play on our phone.

there are two version. 1-ANGRY BIRDS LITE (older phones). THIS VERSION WITH FRX03 BUILD WON'T PLAY DON'T KNOW WHY. NOW ITS PLAY REALLY GOOD. 2-ANGRY BIRDS FULL VERSION PLAYS BUT SLOW. NOW IT A LITTLE BIT FASTER.

PLEASE DOWNLOAD ANGRY BIRDS LITE IF YOU GUYS WANT FULL SPEED. BUT YOU WILL NEED THE (BUILD.PROP SEE FIRST POST). GOOD LUCK. THANKS
Angry birds Lite Beta & Angry Birds Full Version For TP2 - xda-developers

my combination are. 3d driver 11.26, gralloc 11.29. and (build.prop.12.01.10 testing)

I was able to update the lib file using a file explorer in android butt when I tried to update the gralloc file it says that I do not have suffiencent permissions to delete, rename, or just copy over it. Any suggestions? I'm running win 7 on my pc. Is there a different program that can do it? I have tried file manager and astro pro

Thanks!

download neopeek build. put it in your pc
GET 7ZIP GOOGLE IT. /npkinstall. here you will have the tar file (ext2) you can edit it with 7zip. good luck. thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

I'm still not sure what I am supposed to do with build.prop

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

im new to this port thing so stupid question. what do i do with the tar file after i edit it with 7z? do i put it on my phone? if so in what folder? do i have to re-install android on my phone?

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

use this. make sure you put the files on the root. sd card.
libGLES_qcom.so
gralloc.msm7k.so
good luck

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

mount with this
mount --bind /sdcard/build.prop /system/build.prop
make sure you edit your froyo.user.conf. and put file root. sd card
good luck. thanks

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

I'm running xdandroid, I updated froyo.user.conf for gralloc (11/30) and libGLES (11/29), running FRX03, updated to the rootfs file nate posted earlier in thread, deleted data.img to start over and I'm having issues w/ getting the phone to wake using the power button. Sometimes it will work with the end button sometimes it takes opening the slider, sometimes the power button, but it's usually slow to wake regardless. Anyone else having issues? ACL, Nate, Tiad, what would be the "recommended" files to use, i.e. which libGLES date, etc? Also got 17.9 on neocore and 562 on quadrant. Not too different than what I was getting before OC'd (still OC'ing also)

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

Ok, I did read that when you had posted it (but I will admit, a lot of it is over my head). I believe I'm running the correct gralloc and lib, and assuming that the latest rootfs made the change to the buttons. Am I missing something else that's obvious???

Re: 3d driver for testing with gralloc. UPDATED 11.29.10
 

ACL.
COULD THIS BE POSSIBLE. a new framebuffer?. THANKS
