This build got these enhancements:

Kernel weed out
The original Kernel was build with debugging enabled in all parts.
Here is a greeting from the old kernel:

Yes, this is how that device was sold.

I cut off a lot of debugging cruft. A lot. A lot.

fixed charge mode
The battery animation now works.
And there was a bug that the device did not turn off the display backlight. So it doesn't do fast charge. I fixed that.
wireless charger
My device used to become punk after using a wireless charger. I fixed that somehow: The original code is crap. I'd like having the data sheets.
Android
fixed adb via wlan
Bug was, it did not remember the wireless network.
/e/os
I included Trebuchet launcher. You get the choice at the end of the welcome.
F-Droid with privileged extensions

bugs?

So far it's just "App Lounge" that does not work for me. Let's see if that gets fixed in e-3.0 ;)
