VanillaEclair 3.3 BETA2* "ET, phone home!"

by RaduG:

This is the new VanillaEclair 3.3. Please remember that this is still in beta stage. As usual, NANDROID IS YOUR FRIEND.

Thanks behnaam for the 2.6.29 kernel sources and Cyanogen for his 5.0.7 final 

What's new:
- fixed battery drain - actually now the battery life is excellent
- improved kernel
- button lights
- no more graphical glitches
- improved overall performance and stability

What has been done to the kernel:
- pre-OC @691MHz on / 176MHz off -> you can still use OverclockingWidget/SetCPU to set your own desired frequencies, but I suggest you use it as it is.
- enhanced scheduler
- better usage of CPU resources
- battery life tweaks
- EXT2/3 are supported; my suggestion would be to use EXT2
- enabled button lights
- other minor enhancements to improve overall system performance and stability

What works:
- GPS, A-GPS
- camera
- calls
- bluetooth file transfer - tested with another phone and my BT printer
- trackball
- Facebook sync
- google sync, mail, everything related to google
- 2G/3G
- busybox, su
- A2SD - auto enabled
- WiFi
...the list is pretty long, so I'll skip to the part I really hate writing

What doesn't work:
- accelerometer and auto brightness -> I will fix them ASAP
- A2DP - now that I have a BT headset(thanks again Mark!) I can work on it

Included soft(among the usual ones):
- 2D Gallery
- Spare Parts
- google stuff(maps too)
- Cyanogen's launcher, as it is better than the buggy vanilla one
- terminal emulator

Notes:
1. PLEASE PERFORM A NANDROID BACKUP
2. PLEASE WIPE EVERYTHING
3. At the first boot, you will be asked which of the following you would like to start: com.android.provision.DefaultActivity or Setup Wizard. Choose setup wizard. After you have finnished setting it up, the setup will run again. Just press home and reboot. Everything will be fine afterwards.

If you have any issues, please post your logcat too. Pastebin links prefered.
