Sorry for the english but this is really helpful!!
I've repacked Paul's superboot cuz I think it maybe useful to others. This is Paul's image that I just tweaked removing the last line in the /default.prop.

Heres what:
smaller fonts (real desktop scale, ro.sf.lcd_density=160, 120 is too small and stretched)
bigger screens
browse the internet like on desktop (less horizontal scrollbars, no more image stretchings, less zooming)
and more!!
Poorly written apps will suffer small screen bug like ebuddy, dxtop, etc. (i dunno others)
Home app has a bug when you try to switch between workspaces/desktops that will cause it to close, you can try other home like OpenHome or others
Browser, Android Market, GMail, GTalk, and other apps has more space and works really great!!!
if you like smaller keyboard, this is for you
some apps are confirmed to be faster because my setup makes images/icons on UIs to not stretch because the scales is native (desktop scale)

Just download Paul's superboot then overwrite the liquid.superboot.img attached here:
 liquid.superboot.zip ( 2.26MB ) Number of downloads: 143


I recommend you to do: "fastboot-linux -i 0x0502 boot liquid.superboot.img" to try it then if you want it permanently, run install superboot

Comparison of old Liquid to my new setup

You can see more apps because of smaller fonts

Browsing the Market is really cool!

The keyboard is smaller but still easy to use for me

HOW I DID IT
I followed every thing and used perlscripts (unpack-repack) here http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?titl...ack_Boot_Images
I also used behnaam's mkbootimg http://romraid.com/behnaam/liquid/mkbootimg

Unpack*.pl the superboot image (liquid.superboot.img)
edit what you want on the ramdisk folder
Edit the repack*.pl then append "--base 0x20000000" to mkbootimg
repack.pl the kernel and ramdisk folder
Using Hex editor (bless or ghex) Copy the first 12 bytes from the original liquid.superboot.img and paste it on your new boot image and it should look like "ANDROID!pk!"
Boot it and have fun

Now I am expecting Apps on SD or Boot from SD modding here, If you succeed, let me know I want it also!

Also you may look here if you want cheap but durable capacitive stylus like mine http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT
I also ordered USB OTG mini to female USB adapter so I can plug my keyboard whenever someone already enabled USB Host mode in Liquid http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...e=STRK:MEWNX:IT

while it does look nice it screws up so many apps and keyboard apps it just aint worth it tbh.
nice work though

Nice work! Can you upload a video for a little demo?

ya i am willing to demo the uses however i dont have any device to record one except my liquid so sorry

It's very easy to test, I just tried it without flashing ofc. It was nice, perhaps too small sometimes but much more screen space. Icon spacing needs to be smaller. And scandinavian keyboard rendered far too small, most native apps worked except youtube player. 50% of the games was played in ~half the screen. And so on, but still nice to test.

edit: nice work btw

thanks

Ok, I started looking how to move apps to sd.
I'm going to share here what I'm doing, maybe someone more skilled will help!

After partitioning the sd with a primary fat partition and another primary ext2 partition (512Mb large), I was able to mount on /data/apps2 (a folder I made) and copy in it all apps from /data/apps, using busybox port for android.
Once checked the copy was successful I put my sd back on the liquid and renamed apps to apps_old (with every single app running crashing ), renamed apps2 to apps, and mounted again ext2 partition to /data/apps, and..
..everything worked!
Now I'm going to modify init.rc to mount the ext2 partition (with the apps I copied in it) on /data/apps on boot, and create the new boot.img with the modified init.rc..
Any suggestion?
Am I missing anything?

So my mkbootimg worked? Good work!

Still didn't made boot.img, there's something wrong in what I did: every app that was autostarted seems to crash when I go back to the old app directory on internal mem. (i.e.: unmounting the sd from app, removing app and renaming app_old back to app)
The only wy I found to fix it is to reinstall those apps, not so bad, but not even the "cleanest" way to hack my phone..

yup behnaam thanx for that, wow liquid_it keep goin i will continue my modding after going back to my pc, i now start feeling my acer liquid desktop functionality. our family is waiting for new year, happy new year to all!!

wow did it work after all? i cant wait to get it working on mine too maybe im going to concentrate on how we can boot from sd so porting android 2.1 roms from other devices will be easy. after i discover how to boot from sd, ill post it here and i expect alot from you guys that we can enable multitouch in liquid

it should be easy , make a yaffs partition on the sd, use the recovery image we have to unyaffs system.img into that , change the rc_script in one boot.img so it mounts the right disk as system (maybe make other parations for data ... chache etc.) and then it should just work! another approach is chrooting into sd paritions from the rc script. now fastboot boot the image to boot from sd
These are just IDEAS , not testet

I apologize for a bit of offtopic, but I have rooted my phone with Paul's superboot. Can I get the same result by adding "ro.sf.lcd_density=160" to build.prop (or perhaps some other .prop)?

Yeah, it worked indeed, I have just to find out which is the problem with those apps: it looks like crash happens only on marke-installed apps.

nope, that is the first method i tried first, i tried editing several props but no luck, you must do it in /default.prop

wow, im gonna try that thenano and i will post it here

nice liquid_it, but i think i will do boot from sd first and try motorola milestone rom to get the multitouch

Great!

Ok guys gonna get drunk tonight and work hungover tomorrow on getting moto droids recovery img on the Liquid. It has some interesting features that could be handy on Liquid.

good luck

I bet I won't flash your first release..

Ok this method still does not work for me. :-(

If perform all the same steps as AcerDroid does in his post. But the result for me is that when using fastboot-linux to boot the img with the phone in bootloader mode it still reports invalid boot image.

fastboot-linux -i 0x0502 boot ./newsuperboot.img
comes back with;
downloading 'boot.img'... OKAY
booting... FAILED (remote: invalid boot image)

I performed all the unpacking, editing, repacking, and hex editing under a emulated i386 Ubuntu Karmic 9.1 in VirtualBox. I then copy this back to my host sytem which is Ubuntu Karmic 9.1 64bit and peform the fastboot-linux commands to boot the new image. My host system is what I use to perform all my nand flashing like the original superboot.img for rooting. Never had any probs there. I am also using the base address and modded mkbootimg binary.

Any ideas? I am still interested to know Pauls method for how he made the liquid.superboot.img.
