Hi doomlord ?

Underclocking CPU shouldn't really have any negative effect on cpu right ?

im thinking about Ucing CPU to 800 , and is there anything u could suggest for better battery without acutally affecting performance by much ?

PS: Could someone give me a small non tech explination of different I/O schedulers and how they help if u can please , Thanks

So doomlord is there any way to find out , whats the DAC/audio hub used in xperia mini pro ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jackchua65:
Is that possible to port this greatest kernel to Xperia Ray?? Thank you.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
its already done ;)

i am busy with few things so could post it...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
I just have One question

If i Flash this Kernel it will work? I flashed One before to obtain root but after this my touchscreen was unresponsible and reflashing hadn't helped much... So if I flash this kernel I won't have this problem now?

Got a new device and wanted to ask this first before risking to get the same problem again
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rotikering:
Most of the Pros user with unlocked bootloader had tried and even used this kernel. i would say its hundred percent safe.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] knudsen81:
Yes it works great on my device
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jonnygee555:
can I use this over the FreeXperia kernel ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
ok when you all tell me that it is 100% safe i will try flashing this kernel ^^

i just dont want another brick to be sent to sony ericsson
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] jonnygee555:
Its safe to use, just doesn't have all features yet
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
I tried it and now it works :)

I had tried it before but there my Touch did Not respond Don't Know why but it works now

Great Kernel so far stable and really fast

Good work
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] adibayer_:
could you help me..

suddenly i can't use usb debugging..

i already checked usb debugging in setting - application - development

but when i try to connect my phone to pc, there no usb debug icon in my status bar

:(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
install adb drivers
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] adibayer_:
already install adb drivers from pc companion, but still got same problem :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] olkarl:
Anyone know why i get stucked in a bootloop after flashing this kernel? I see the xperia logo and then it just reboots over and over again. The bootloader is unlocked and im on rooted 4.0.A.2.368 FW.

Edit: i got it working one time but when I rebooted my phone i got back to bootloop again...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
does this kernel support a swap partition?

and when it does how do i create and use it?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
Whats with the swap Partition? I have Made such a Partition but it seems that it won't work...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tigger69:
DooMLoRD i love you man :)

Just put your kernel on my phone, overclocking works and now i have a recovery.

Awesome work, and i will donate you some dosh soon as i can.

tigger
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] PoedelPCS:
You can enter the recovery menu of this kernel when keeping pushing the power key, when the experia bootlogo appears. Take a second´s interval and stop pushing when the menu appears, otherways it would immediately go back to stand-by.

In the Recovery Menü you should "wipe cache" and under "advanced" -> "wipe dalvik cache".

After a reboot the device should boot smoothly ;)

---------- Post added at 01:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 PM ----------

I never looked if there is an icon. Just make sure you connect the device on a 2.0 USB Port. 1.1 & 3.0 don´t work here with my f0ne.

check if connected by typing

adb devices

If there is one listed it should be yours.. voila ;)

by the way to flash the kernel you´ll need fastboot != adb

Fastboot is really easy: Shutdown the device keep holding volume up while plugging into usb slot. If the blue light appears on the top left of your fone you´re in fastboot.

Check with

fastboot devices

similar to adb ;)

Every Kernel should have the option to use a swap partition.

You divide you sdcard into several partitions like you do to a computer´s hardddrive, too. You should take linux tools probably or something windowy like partition magic or similar.

On linux you

mkswap /dev/sdaX <- where X is the desired Partition´s device node.

swapon /dev/sdaX <- tells the current system to use it.

adb shell could do the job or terminal emulator from the market.

Partitioning a device will delete all data - make backup before!

Custom kernel boot screen submissions for DooMKernel

VOTING BEGINS!!!

thanks to all who contributed!!!

i have selected some final entries which i personally liked...

now the time comes to decide the final one...

a poll has been created in this thread... multiple selections are allowed...

so guys select the best one which u want as bootlogo on the next DooMKernel!!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] olkarl:
I cant enter recovery mode, puching the power-button over and over again but nothing happens, just the same bootloop. =(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] PoedelPCS:
olkarl, if you got this kernel really flashed the recovery should come up.

Otherwise flash it from fastboot (device off, hold vol up, plug into usb until led is blue)

fastboot flash boot boot.img

If this worked you can access recovery with tapping power while seeing splash
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] olkarl:
I've been flashing it, using fastboot, like 20 times but no luck so far, i can see the bootscreen, I tap power button several times, nothing happens and it reboots.

If I flash the FXP-kernel I can enter recovery mode.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
ok when u get into OS run the following commands via adb shell/terminal emulator:

su
mkdir -p /cache/recovery/
touch /cache/recovery/boot
reboot

this will create the necessary dir structure and make the device reboot into recovery...

this may help the getting into CWM issue...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Jokerok:
DoomLord,

If you will release next version of kernel, could you please set recovery button for volume down ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
new kernel version will have latest CWM 5.0.2.x recovery...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] expeacer:
Hy!

One noob question. How can I make kernel.sin from your boot.img file?

Thanks for your work, and for your help!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
Hi u can make kernel.sin but u won't be able to flash it... S1bootloader will reject modified kernel.sin file...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] expeacer:
Ooh... Cry...

So no chance to root my "Bootloader unlock allowed: No" phone?

Prerooted system.img could work?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Linkinsoldier:
is there any way to flash software from zip file (dont have the correct zip file for it!).

Because x10 flasher rejects the tft file.

(btw: i have a prototype xperia mini pro here!)

Can maybe someone offer me a backup file?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
download it again... btw why do u need FTF for?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Linkinsoldier:
the file is correct (flashed my old mini pro with it!).

It seems to be a problem on the device. Its a prototype, and i can flash mini and ray firmware to it, but it rejects mini pro firmware :/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
Do you make a kernel for cm7 for this device?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
I don't have these other phones, I only have XPERIA Arc... So I cannot guarantee any updates or newer kernels...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
Ah ok...

Can't you just make a kernel for it that should work for cm7 and everyone can test it?

Would be great
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
thats wht i have been doing so far :)

the thing is work load has increased, and CM7 will keep getting updated often, i dont have that much time to sit integrating/modifying codes for so many device kernels...

as i said, i cant guarantee any updates, newer kernels (like specific ones for CM7/MiUI), if i get time i will make them...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Daywalkr1990:
Ah ok :)

Thanks a lot I know you will have a huge amount of work to do with this

Keep up the good work man :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] barrist:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] barrist:
EDIT: nm i'm an idiot
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ashokmkd:
dear DooMLoRD, i recently tested my sk17i with CM7.1 and your DooMKernel. It works almost fine. Can you modify this DooMKernel so that it supports both the stock and CM7 at the same time? In that case, I can easily switch between stock and CM without flashing the kernel using CWM. That will almost make the device a standalone multiboot. :-)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
i dont have this device so i will not be making a CM kernel for this...

i may even stop working on this kernel...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xpawx.o0o:
Hi Doomlord, If you do decide to stop working on the kernel is there any chance of you updating it with your new kernel boot screen first :) Thanks heaps for all your efforts so far :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
cant guarantee anything at the moment...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
hi i will soon be discontinuing support and closing down my (DooMKernel) threads for the following devices:

Xperia Ray

Xperia Mini

Xperia Mini Pro

Xperia Neo

since i only have the Xperia ARC with me, its becoming difficult for me to manage so many devices, especially since CM7 kernel will require different kernel sources (even MiUI), the task is going to get tougher for me... also I am getting busy with some personal work so wont be able to dedicate a lot of time for the devices which i dont even have...

i have asked the Xperia Play users to think abt donating a device to me...

if they want then they can do so, then i will continue work on PLAY too... but if they are not willing, then even that kernel will be closed down...

currently hartej has Xperia Ray and will be working on the kernel for that device (i will help him get started and working ;) )...

another thing, my dear friend Napstar is an awesome dev, he is currently working on Ideos X6 kernel/recovery/other stuff, i keep helping him out when ever he needs help ;)... he is willing to help me out but we will need that device with us to continue work... so if for any of the above devices you guys are willing to donate a device to him/us, i am sure he/we will continue work on kernel and much much more :)

i invite advanced users who have knowledge abt compiling kernels to contact me... i can help them out to keep the kernels up for that device...

for technical queries u can always send p.m. to me

hope u guys understand this...

regards,

DooMLoRD
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] xpawx.o0o:
I can definitely understand the need to cut down on what you are working on. There's no use burning the candle at both ends or you don't have the time to slow down and enjoy the most important things in life, like living and enjoying the moment. thanks again for all the hard work you have put in :-D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] DooMLoRD:
i am closing this thread now...

if any advanced/experienced user is interested in continuing work for this device feel free to contact me... if i get time i will help out...

best of luck guys!

Hello guys,

I'm from Brazil and i like to use customized ROMs from the DEVs here (Thanks to the devs of LeoMar Revolution ROM, Cognition and VillainROM). But almost all of them are from Europe region.

I don't mind using a ROM in English, but i would like to use some APPs from Market that i know to have my language (PT-BR), but i can't change it. Usually the APP detect my region from the phone configuration (CSC) and don't let me change it.

There's any kind of APP or script that would let me "hack" my location information and let those apps identify Brazil as my location?

[Verizon Droid Charge] Raccroc:
I prefer to disable the screen timeout when I have the phone plugged in.

Under Froyo, it was as easy changing the value from "0" to "1" in:

/dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db -> system -> stay_on_while_plugged_in

Same setting exists in GB; however, it doesn't seem to work and something is resetting it to zero on every reboot. Anyone have any suggestions on either how to get this to work or if there is another way to get GB to behave this way?

[Xperia Arc General] maRRRco89:
Hi everyone

is so difficult do a custom rom for Neo with a normal jpeg compression ?

2mb for a photo can be sufficient in my opinion

not 1mb !!

SE doesn't works in this direction, probably for the conflict with the Arc market

but we can do something or not?
[Xperia Arc General] Alihosny:
The high compression issue is also present in the arc
[Xperia Arc General] mhyke13ph:
+1

It ranges from 1.1~1.5mb and quality is not that good :(
[Xperia Arc General] maRRRco89:
On the neo the compression doen't arrive to 1mb

is less, and landscape are terrible

is so difficult change this setting by a custom rom?
[Xperia Arc General] mariolouis:
You can use other camera for lower compression. But you want the stock camera app to work right? It won't work in custom roms.

I have tried, and still trying to mod the stock camera but without SE source code, I cannot continue. Plus now with the new update, the stock camera app has again updated. I don't need to change it to show better on higher lcd density. It now just scales perfectly to whatever density I put the phone into.

Same as with other xperias. SE stock cameras just don't work with custom roms.
