Did u try the wifi/bt fix patch posted in second post?

Take a backup of ur current rom and try the froyo kernels... flash wifi module after flashing kernel... u may need wifi/bt patch if u still get wifi error...

+1 For some reason yesterday I started getting a lot of random reboots & WLODs on Zkernel22062011 using WBs 7.1 rom with bb67 OCed to 1113. I didn't update or change anything so I'm surprised why it started happening all of a sudden. I decided to do a fresh install of 2.1 bb67, flashed WBs custom rom then flashed Zkernel23062012 + the correct wifi fix and so far so good. The only issue I am having now is the wifi password won't save. Anyone having the same issue?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] hoskopico:
Its a 2.2 so my guess is the reg froyo kernal with module can't tell u if u need a fix u have to try it to figure it out on ur own due to the random actions of different devices

I have the exact same issue i tried that patch but still no luck.

I have re-flashed everything 4 times now.. still no wifi.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Which rom??

@all

If you were able to get it to work on the rom you use please mention the rom name/version number in your post so that it can help everyone... also please mention which specific boot.img you used + which wifi module worked for you (if u needed to use any additional patches)

Since there are so many roms and various versions it is difficult for ppl to test it out on each and every one of them...

Based on your feedback I will update second post with that info and link up to ur posts so others can be benefited from your experience....

When i click the wifi tick in settings i get "Error" beneath Wi-Fi.
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Ok so kernel is loading properly only issue is wifi right???

Can u do some testing? Try the GB/CM7 boot.img which I posted (modded zkernel 23062011)

Also another thing..

This might also be an issue so be sure that u remove any patches and then try again...

Best is to go back to a working installation of the rom then take backup and try one combination at a time...

Getting close now... boots successfully and wifi works after replacing the included wifi.ko with the one from Z's 23062011-alt file.

Had to use part of the patch from here to get BT working:

Now it's just the camcorder.. any ideas on this? I'm gonna have a play with the permissions inside hw_config.sh as per one of the fixes for Froyo MIUI, as the symptoms are the same (freezes and then force closes after pressing rec, then won't load camera at all until reboot :( )
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] 9Lukas5:
that's correct, the zKernel doesn't support underclock atm. It only can apply overclock to 1113Mhz, and if undervolt is activated, too, I don't know, but I think not, cause z hasn't mentioned it anywhere.

Regards,

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
yes thats expected cause zKernels are scaling from 245-1113Mhz

Hi DoomLord!

I've tried to use the zkernel 23062011 (bb54) on Wolfs TWX007.1 ROM, but I can't get wifi working! When I was on zkernel 22062011 everything worked just fine!

I tried manualy copy the wifi.ko file to the modules folder and fixed the properties, but still no luck!

Do you know how to fix this issue?

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Lockon Stratos:
Doom I'm having an annoying issue and hope you can help. Saturday I started getting a lot of random WLODs and random reboots while using your boot.img plus the 2206011 wifi module on WBs TW 007.1 rom with bb67 so I decided to try out the zkernel2206011. I wanted to start fresh so I did a fresh install of the rom, flashed bb patch 54 (as suggested by G-FACE), made an xrec backup then flashed zkernel2206011 + 2206011 wifi module. All seems to be fine, kernel loads and wifi works but it doesn't save the wifi password no matter what. Any ideas? If I restore from backup and reflash your boot.img with the wifi.ko module then the wifi password saves but I have to deal with the random WLODs.

i have uploaded/posted a new test kernel (boot.img) which should work on all Froyo roms (atleast FreeX10 based)... it wouldnt/shouldnt require any additional wifi patches...

if possible please get back to stock version of the ROM u are using (for baseband 2.1.xx) and take a full backup and be ready...

btw the new test kernel (boot.img) will be based on zKernel_23062011...

POSTED BELOW

please try the new test kernel posted below..
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
zKernel_23062011 with FreeX10-beta4 ramdisk (should work for most froyo roms) [please test and report back]

Screenshot:

Tested to be working on:

FreeX10-beta4

no dhcp issues

no other wifi issues

Additional Notes:

you should not need to use any wifi patches for this to work (atleast on FreeX10-beta4 it doesnt)

if u have previously used the wifi patch wifi_bt_fix-fxk_froyo_v01.1.zip please remove it using remove_fix_v01.1.zip and try using this test kernel

[optional] you might need to "wipe cache" & "wipe dalvik cache" via recovery, reboot and let the device for some time before u can try out things (wiping cache cause the first bootup to be VERY LONG, that is expected no need to get alarmed)

Using:

kernel => zKernel_23062011

ramdisk => FreeX10-beta4 (modded for Custom Kernel)

logo => THIS LOGO (thank you achotjan for that beautiful image for FreeXperia Project)

BOOOYAAHH!!! My wifi password issue is all taken care of. Thanks Doom!!! Only thing now is to hunt for WLODs, keep an eye for random reboots and observe the overall performance of the ROM.

I restored my recent xrec backup which put me back to WBs TW007.1 (bb67) with 22062011 zkernel. Downloaded the boot.img & wifi.ko module (just in case) from Dooms post above then I did the following:

- flashed zKernel_23062011 with FreeX10-beta4 ramdisk

- reboot (cool new boot animation screen BTW)

- new kernel didn't seem to load and it still showed 22062011 on ABOUT PHONE

- in root explorer /system/kernel, deleted boot.froyo.img then renamed boot.img to boot.froyo.img

- rebooted but wifi showed error

- flashed wifi module then rebooted again

Wifi is now working plus password is getting saved. I've turned the wifi on & off and also rebooted the phone several times and the wifi connects automatically.

Thanks again Doom for posting this!!

DoomLord, I have now clean installed FreeX10 2.2b4 (hotfix 1) and added your new kernel mod.

So far everything is working as it does with the stock kernel, HD recording works, camera works, wifi works and Bluetooth switches on (I don't have anyone to test pairing/sending with atm).

I've had to install setCPU to restore default clockspeeds as I get WLODS with overclock.

Many thanks for cooking up this version, it's excellent!
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] iridaki:
Why don't I get WLOD with overclock? I have yet to face a single one...

Ok, I understand how that question sounds and sorry about that, but I am curious as to how some phones are different than others in CPU tolerance.

I'm using the 2206 version on Trip's MIUI 1.7, with SetCPU set to 245-1113 and charging profile 245-998 (less heat while using the phone on charger) and screen off at 245-384.

Hi DoomLord,

I´ve got it installed on my current ROM (updated sort of speak) and it works fine, also wifi after patch.

After applying patch I did had to do a Dalvic Cache whipe, but since then it works fine.. Otherwhise it was constantly WLOD/rebooting..

After installing setCPU I got one WLOD, that was all!

OR

same here... never got WLODs... even on that test kernel with 1152Mhz overclock... may be we are lucky and have the "tolerant" cpus ;)

NO WAY!

i have used a lot of things from here - there to get things working as i like it... there is no point making another thread of ROM/MOD... since many are already there...

actually i dont want the headache from users complaining that "this is not working in ur rom"/"i dont like this option"/"can u add this too"... its just too much of work to manage rom threads... i am not generally that free to take care of such things... i am happy with working with just kernels (lesser files to worry abt) ;)

why dont u guys mod it as per ur own liking... i use FreeX10-beta4 as base...

btw here are some pics of the heavily modded ROM i currently use:

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] maddes1402:
Thanks for these settings!!!

I use the same rom + kernel and with these settings it has been running stable for about half an hour. I also thought it is curious when it is about the different CPU tollerances.

But i guess a lot of users don´t use these profiles and their phones just run all the time with 245-1113MHz because some devs recommend not to use profiles because they could run in conflict with their battery saving methods.
