Doom I think there is interest by other people . Most people don't know how to unlock their bootloaders, so keeping the locked bootloader updated like you do with the unlocked bootloader would be a nice change :) OF COURSE it's all up to you !

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] dragoxt:
Hi doom,

I am also +1 for locked BL updates for now, since there no real huge benefit (yet) in unlocking BL.

Thanks for all and if you aren't going to update this Custom kernel you will force me to do something i don't want to do >_>... unlock mi Boot loader :P

thanks again for all your awesome work

Good day, one question does this kernel support ext 4 partitions? right now Im using wbs 6.0 custom I created ext 4 partition but it wont be recognized by my device, it only recognizes ext2 partitions, any ideas what could be wrong with it ?

Ive been searching a lot for this but cant find anything about it thanks for the help
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
ext4 support is there...

what mounting command are u using?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Quercus1:
+1 Waiting on an update:)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
well currently there is not much changed in main kernel (zImage)...

what i am currently playing around with is improving the integrated ramdisk...

if there are any changes in kernel (zImage) i will update this thread with it...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Valholy:
No mounting command Im using link2sd, using mini partition tool to create ext 4 on my sd, once it is done I just insert the sd to my phone and run link2sd, there it prompts with a list of partition types and asks me wich one I want to use from the list, Im choosing ext 4 but it gives me a mount error. While doing it with ext2 it doesnt give me any errors.

thanks for replying back doom :)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
ok...

without starting link2sd just post the outputs of the following commands (adb shell/teminal emulator):

no problem...

just get it from the kernel package u used to flash... copy xrecovery.tar to /system/xbin/

correct the permissions to 644 & ownership to root.root OR 0.0

Hello,

I am a newbie here and I would like to flash the nice kernel over the stock one. I don't look at huge overclock, I just would enjoy the same battery life of my stock 2.3.3 with a more optimized kernel. Is here available a very-easy-to-get guide/tutorial? I am really poor to understand I/O manager, smartass.... simply not understandable for me :( I hope in your kind help!

BR,

[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
@Valholy

i have quoted the relevant parts...

as u can see u have 2 partitions on sdcard:

and the second partition is around 1GB

and it is mounted as EXT2

so i think u didnt format it correctly for the proper file system OR u are using some init.d scripts which are making it ext2 and mounting it...

use the wifi modules corresponding to the kernel version... wifi should work... whts the exact wifi issue/error/bug?

no problem

just reboot into recovery

flash the kernel package (if there is any error while flashing ignore it, its a known issue)

reboot phone

enjoy kernel :)

if u want u can undervolt using the scripts supplied..

for other info read 1st/2nd posts
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] Valholy:
thanks a lot doom, strange since Im using minitool partition and Im sure Im selecting ext4 partition when creating that new partition, btw how can I modify this init.d scripts ? are they already implemented on the rom or is some file I can find under my system and modify with root explorer?

you were correct doom I found the init.d in etc folder, under the link2sd file it says mount ext2 I edited that file and modified all the ext2 to ext4 and saved changes, still it doesnt work, what can I do ?

this is how the file looks originally

#!/system/bin/sh

#added by link2sd

sleep2

mount -t ext2 -o rw /dev/block/vold/179:2 /data/sdext2

mount -t ext2 -o rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 /data/sdext2
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:

That is why the thread is there.;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
bootloader bypass kernels are loaded using a "hack"/script in which we execute special code to splboot the custom kernel..

this code is added to the file /system/bin/chargemon and gets executed on each boot, as the stock ramdisk, by default, executes this file (which was originally the offline-charging file)...

so if u just replace the /system/bin/chargemon file with one that doesnt have the splbooting code then custom kernel booting will be disabled and u will be back on stock kernel... u can replace this file with stock chargemon but it will break recovery as we use boot-hijacking to enter recovery...

the simplest way to get back to stock kernel and to maintain recovery is to flash xrecovery-0.3-GBready update.zip

hi man,

im on whitecookie v2 miui1.9.30

i flash your LBLkernel v4

(full OC,UV)and all seem to be ok

apart battery drain

but I'm confused with tweak

ini.d work at boot and have lot of tweak in (i disable 98governor)

but i have lot of tweak in

install-recovery.sh too

so what sould i do with ?

do i delete install-recovery.sh ?

and where can i set undervolt (i not have vdd tweak in ini.d)

and why i have 3 boot sequence

(sony,welcome kernel,your bootlogo,and default android,well that's boring what can i do for that ?

thanks.

ps.sorry for lot of question and my poor English :-)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
hi install-recovery.sh file was initially used to put "tweaks" in... generally there are many "tweaks" which are placebo/have absolutely no effect... while some smart implementations will improve performance/user experience... whether to delete it or not depends on ur rom... ask ur rom provider for further details...

also i highly recommend that u use undervolting scripts as this will greatly improve ur phone's battery life (vdd scripts are posted first few posts of this thread)...

wait i am confused abt the boot sequence..

SE text logo -> my bootlogo -> bootanimation -> device boots in OS

thats they way bootloader bypass kernels work...

if u want faster way:

my bootlogo -> bootanimation -> device boots in OS

then u will need to unlock bootloader ;)
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kaosdroid:
ok.thanks man but whitecookie is in investigate for tweak and release v4 but i don't want to switch,so what sould i do with install-recovery i delete it ?
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] DooMLoRD:
kindly contact ur ROM cook/dev... i cannot help u much as i didnt integrate those "tweaks"...
[XPERIA X10 Android Development] kaosdroid:
thank,

but i ask him and he investigating about this tweak for future release but i don't want switch,but i want to know if this tweak cause trouble with your kernel cause in another topic i see that some dev have cleaned method on that file before flash custom kernel(TEAM rom)

Which one?

DoomLord, could you please help me?

I installed one of your Kernel versions and after the installation, my phone got frozen for a while and when I tried to reboot into Xrecovery, it didn´t work anymore. I have a X10 running Stock GB2.3.3.

I installed this version: modFXP-DooMKernel-v04-FS (FS-series) but I´m not sure if I choose the correct one fo my device.

Once I couldn´t reboot into XREC again after a few attempts, I had to use Flashtoll 3.0 to reinstall Xrecovery. I was sucessful but after I finally rebooted my phone, it returned to StockKernel.

Could you please help out here telling me which version is most appropriate for me?

Thanks a lot.

Cheers!

Sorry, but could you be more specific? First I asked you if you could help me indicating which version of your Kernels would be more appropriate for my X10 with Stock 2.3.3.

Then I reported that after my first attempt with modFXP-DooMKernel-v04-FS (FS-series), I COLDN´T REBOOT INTO XRECOVERY ANYMORE.

I was forced to install XREC again with Flashtool BUT ON DOING THIS, your kernel was uninstalled and I had problems with WIFI.

As I´m not a dev, I almost paniced cause I don´t know how to fix thngs. A friend, Soppdog, that had sent me some links to improve my X10, also gave link to Backtostockkernel and thanks to him, I had my phone back to normal.

Lost Xrec after install!

Hi, Doom!

Following a friend´s recomendation, I installed your Kernel for Locked Bootloader on my X10 but after installation, when I tried to reboot into Xrecovery, I found out I hadn´t Xrecovery installed on my device any more.

On boot during SE logo, I kept pressing back bottom but no XREC reboot. Then the phone stuck and had to remove battery and so on.

Your kernel worked great but I need to have Xrecovery also installed and working flawlessly as wel.

Then I flashed Xrecovery again via Flashtool but after that no more DoomKernel in SETTINGS/ABOUT PHONE.

What I could see there was that apparently on reinstalling Xrec, my phone went back to StockKernel, but now with wifi issues.

As I had a zip for BacktoStockernel, I flashed it and that saved me some headache.

Any idea why I lost my XREC the 2 times I installed your Kernel for Locked Bootloader?

This was the version I installed:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=17294877&postcount=738

xRecovery v0.3-GBready compatible scripts (RECOVERY INCLUDED) [might give error during flashing but should still work ]

modFXP-DooMKernel-v04b [FIXED] (merged X/S-series)[/strike]

I´ll appreciate if you could help cause I´d like to use a kernel other than the Stock one, specially because of the possibility to use SETCPU!

Thanks!

No Xrecovery after Kernel installation

Since when I rooted my phone, I installed Xrecovery via FlashTool.

I really want to ask you if you could check this cause once I installed your Kernel, I sucessfully downloaded SETRCPU, was all I wanted, everything worked great but you must understand that it is also important to have XREC installed and working form further zip installations such as roms.

As after have installed your Kernel, I didn´t manage to access Xrecovery anymore, I opened the same flashtool, connected my phone, asked for root permissions and reinstalled Xrecovery.

I rebooted phone, pressed back bottom, XRECOVERY workings again but then when I checked in STTINGS / ABOUT PHONE, your Kernel was not there anylonger. What I could see in its place was something ( description ) like the StockKernel Semc.....but had wifi issues.

Luckly I had from a great guy, Soppdog, who recommended you kernel to me, a zip for BacktoStockKernel, I installed it and my phone was back to old X10 features but working with XREC after all.

Please if could give some adivice on this, I´ll appreciate very very much cause I want your kernel installed on my device.

Thanks a lot!
