What is the base system that was flashed on this device before? Trunk
needs recent drivers. The ICS chocolate drivers that hamachi shipped
with are no longer supported and cause texture locking issues, making
performance miserable.
Are these latest drivers backward compatible with b2g26_v1_2? I'd like
to upgrade my phone, but I still have koi+ bugs so need to work on v1.2
as well as v1.3/master.
Thanks!

First a bit of background: I've just recently begun looking into the Firefox OS
project, so I've not seen its evolution over the previous months, am not that
familiar with the differences between the versions, etc.
Yesterday, I pulled the tip of master for B2G and built it for the Hamachi
(Alcatel) device. After the build, I'm left with a userdata.img and a
system.img file, but no boot.img (I guess related to the fact that the drivers
are proprietary). I booted into fastboot mode with the volume down + power
trick, ran flash.sh -f and the device flashed.
Once it booted, the results were not promising. There was significant tearing
in the UI whenever I scrolled quickly and overall the framerate felt quite
choppy. This is in comparison to the Geeksphone Keon that I was using
previously.
However, I saw a colleagues Hamachi running 1.0.1 and it's like it's a totally
different phone. No tearing, decent framerates. I also see in an earlier email
thread that the performance team from Mozilla is using Hamachi as their main
performance testing device and seeing good (50+ FPS) framerates on things like
scrolling.
So my question is, where's the disconnect? What's the process the Mozilla guys
are using to build for Hamachi and are they using the tip of master? Am I
screwing up something with drivers, etc. that's leading to this bad experience?
Btw, I booted the device up today and thought I was losing my mind because I
didn't see the tearing, but after a few minutes of playing it came back.
