right

i mean my x8 is stabile at 825MHz so i want to use it
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] scorpion 21:
So then you will must to set it manually if the developer will avabivable it becuse not all phones all stable at 825Mhz
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Godra:
He is only suggesting to add those freqencies to CPU freq. tables, default clock would remain at 600 MHz
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
what problem you people have with fotax just requesting to add the frequency in the kernel....you can use the frequency you like...default 600 is ok but if some phones can run at 825 why you people whine about it...and if you think it is easy for a non-kernel developer (i dont know what to call it) to add a frequency then give a method for it and we will add it by own

:good: kernel
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fotak-x:
in sgt. meow's thread is explained how to do it but if wouldn't be problem dev could easily put 825 MHz in his kernel
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
i didn't mention it but i am gonna now. thanks for the tip.

and @djnilse

i saw you made a CWM touch branch of the ramdisk and also read that all works okay except for the fact that sometimes it hangs. how's progress on that?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CtrlAltDelIrl:
I'm gonna try explain something for you all very quickly concerning cpu speeds.

The settings that are in the kernels are so because they are reliable and safe. End of story!

@fotak - How do you know your phone can run at 825Mhz stable? What kernel were you running to achieve this speed? Please explain.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fotak-x:
nAa kernel v11

864MHz ondemand = stabile

825MHz performance = stabile

864MHz performance (antutu benchmark test) = phone reboot
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
same here....cant run antutu on 825+ the phone hangs ...led glows red..... 825 works fine
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
i agree with CtrlAltDelIrl. but you can add freqs and compile it yourself. check my guide for help.

@CtrlAltDelIrl

i've always had this question. some phones can stably overclock to 864MHz while others hang even at 787MHz. is this a hardware thing? or is it kernel related? when i was on nAa 11 i could overclock to 825MHz without any probs. however on nAa-JB, i can go only up to 787MHz. i can't figure out the answer to this question?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fotak-x:
must be hardware (quality of product (i think))
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CtrlAltDelIrl:
Continue this discussion in off-topic guys - We all know who we are!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
it is not off topic sir..just a request for alfsamsung. thats all
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CtrlAltDelIrl:
The request has been made. The rest is just discussion and has no place here.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Marinake:
Thank you guys.My Xperia 7.5 just evolved to Xperia X8 after flashing this great kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Ainster:
Probliem on all alfs karnels i get screen cut when screen are rotated and on all rom's with alfs karnel ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
i said it earlier too... the problem is not with the kernel nor the roms... problem is with the phone.... if you are getting problem on alfs then shift to nAa kernel or exchange X8 for some other phone or another X8......

:p;)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] droidx8:
What are your cpu settings?

If ondemand+ xxx-691 mhz, change 691 to a bigger or smaller value. 691 mhz caused screencut for everybody.

HTC Sense... Devs, please take care of it!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
actually some X8's have this problem on Alfs kernel. The solution is to use a higher CPU maximum frequency, I guess. It may have had something to do with governors too, can't remember anything about it.

---------- Post added at 03:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:29 PM ----------

what do you mean by "HTC Sense... Devs, please take care of it!"
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
smarass v2 or ondemand can help minimizing screen cuts
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Ainster:
im using smartassv2 245-768mhz on nAa karnel all works perfect but low performance for games really low..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
that is nAa kernels disadvantage....not good performance...compared to alfs
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Mockingbird:
Phone disadvantage , nAa is same in terms of performance as alfs v08 , only v09 is better than nAa kernel when it comes to gaming.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
alfs kernel has always been better at performance..... undoubtedly.. you can try yourself... alfs v7 beats nAa v14 in terms of performance....

enough said...now no more discussion on this.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] droidx8:
It's my signature bro. Sorry if the english is bad. Nobody of the great devs making Sense port. (I know racht's build but it's not complete)

i flashed Alfs cm7 v09a and its too bright. how to fix it?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
reduce brightness in settings
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xperiae15i:
it didnt work, after flash a rom from the bootanimation until the first boot, screen is too bright
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ->Sid:
Might be ultra brightness is on..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xperiae15i:
I checked but no :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
so it is only bright during boot?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xperiae15i:
please read again, after flashing the rom from bootanimation until the first boot and facing the home screen until then the screen was too bright. It wont work even if i adjust the settings from brightness and the ultra brightness
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
rather you should please right again....use proper english

you say..

after flashing the rom from bootanimation until the first boot and facing the homescreen....

what does that mean... mind using proper english? if it means that you get bright screen from bootanimation till homescreen shows up then it shouldnt be a problem since that period is too short...

what rom you are using? may be rom problem...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xperiae15i:
Dont be mad at me, im asking for a help! I try the alfs 8a and im not facing that problem
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
i just said use proper english instead of asking me to read again properly.....thats all.... just try framing proper sentence so that i can understand your problem... it will help you not me...and what rom are you using?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xperiae15i:
Im using GingerSony v07! Sorry for that stupid english mistake

What do you recommend me to use? Alfs V8a or v9?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
i recommend V8....and you could have opened that link instead of asking..you can see it is link from XDA right?...

it is the update-rom-CM7-AlfsKern.v9a+.zip given on first page...try flashing if you want to use v9...might work

alf 8a & netfilter

Hello I am still on alf v8a because of the hitachi screen bug I experienced in v9a but now I need nat support. I read that this support is furnished by fxp addon in v9a but I wonder if there is any such support in v8a? If not, does anyone have any available module that is confirmed to be working in alf v8a?

Any news on that hitachi bug? it seems like forever that this bug has never been dealt with
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
'nat' ? what is that
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
netfilter / iptables should work on v02a and above.What problems do you have?

Hitatchi bug is fixed.v09b is in final testing.

@CnC-ROCK nat=network-address-translation (NAT) wiki
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] vientito:
----------------------------------------

The problem I am having is that whenever I open a terminal and get in as su and execute "iptables" I will always see this

modprobe: module 'ip_tables' not found

even the binary is found and executed. That message seems to tell me that a module is missing from the kernel.

What am I missing?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
thanks for the info about nat and v09b...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
@vientito. this is my output.

~ # iptables
iptables
modprobe: module 'ip_tables' not found
iptables v1.3.7: no command specified
Try `iptables -h' or 'iptables --help' for more information.

Nothing here is wrong.The binary file is checking if there is a module, but iptables is built in kernel(iptables v1.3.7: no command specified). What are you trying to do with iptables? Please give more details of what you are trying to do.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] vientito:
oh i was just trying to make sure I could install autoproxy 'cos according to their thread I need to make sure NAT and netfilter is supported. I think it should work.

In any case, I hope everything sails smooth with v.9b and eventually we could all get the speedup and have a sane screen display
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Kumczak:
v9b without screencuts?! wow, it sounds like Santa's comming earlier this year :). nice to hear the good news! thank you, alfsamsung, and keep up the awesome work :).
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Julianocas:
Dear all,

I've nAa + MiniCM9 at my X8 at the moment, and I want to go to Alfs + GingerDX.

Is there any way to flash from CWM (nAa) the Alfs kernel? Or I can just do it with Flashtools?

Regards.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
You have to install with Flashtool. CWM flashable kernels are not available for the X8 as of now.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Aremeyr:
can someone help me after i change my screen digitizer .. my dual touch not response~ my new screen is synaptic :( im not sure what is my screen before this :( but im using alfs kernel v8a GDX ROM :(please help me
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
you cannot have dual touch on synaptic currently... no one has been able to develop it for synaptic
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
there is fake dual touch. the modules aren't there in the ramdisk (at least they weren't there in v08) which is why dual touch doesn't work on your phone. you need to manually insmod the synaptics fake dual touch modules. search for them in the X8 sub-fora.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
fake dual touch is actually the pinch zoom thing right?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
basically yeah.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Ainster:
Did this is true :eek: No more screen cuts in new 9b karnel ? :eek: No screen cuts like in nAa ? thet would be awesome :eek: But still i get on all alfs karnel screen cuts i don't think 9b are different from 8a.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Mockingbird:
Cant wait for v9b , it will bring our phone to a new level.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
alfsamsung has said that it is fixed.

why you have to always make a post when i start typing...

we end up making same post.. just yours are smaller... :laugh::laugh:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
wrong. fake dual touch for synaptics is built in kernel.You can't insmod modules built for stock kernel on my kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Ainster:
Im not using 9b don't be so rude my english not perfect i think you don't understand what im saying ... Im saying did alfs 8a are similar with screen cuts or with out them in to 9b sorry my grammar fu..ed up.. And im asking did hitachi bug are not fixed in to 8a ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Aremeyr:
Soo why my fake dual touch not working
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Xmaster8:
There was no hitachi bug in 8a... its only in 9a and yes its fixed in 9b!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Aremeyr:
okey it is bulit in kernel but why my fake dual touch cannot be use~ :( im using alfs kernel v8a and GDXv29 but my dual touch not response :( why? is it because of my screen digitizer? :'(

before i change my screen digitizer it is work :( but now its not working bro~ sorry for asking to much bro
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
@alfsamsung..hmmm..shouldn't the modules be in the ramdisk? how did you integrate them with kernel? and i'm sorry for the wrong info. got a lot to learn.

if it worked before, it proves two things:

1) the modules are there and are insmod-ed correctly (which also proves i was wrong; have a lot to learn)

2) the modules work

it also provides the conclusion to this problem:

it's your screen digitizer's fault.

maybe it wasn't installed properly or something (have no idea about hardware issues).
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Aremeyr:
i think so~ is there any other type of screen digitizer type beside cypress and synptic?

i think its not intalled properly coz sometimes its a little bit hard for me to type and touch on the right side of my screen :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
Unfortunately no. Try re-installing the Synaptics digitizer.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Aremeyr:
Okey ive paid 80 for this things im really dissapointed if i cant use my screen well :( its hard to touch letter O P K L and backspace
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Xmaster8:
Send your phone to the store for repairment if you still have warranty
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Aremeyr:
Yeah i will do that in first place if i still have my warranty but no i dont... i send it for repair yesterday ... yes the screen can be touch again but pinch zoom and multiple touch not functioning and it is not flow when i touch it.. soo i need to send it back and reinstall the screen digitizer..

alfsamsung: Could you make DRM support for SDE please? :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] L_S:
+1 Please :angel:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] pilu1978:
The kernel NOT contains codes related to the SDE drm. To use it only 2 thing need:

1. Add the drm user to init binary

2. Start the drmserver as service in the init.rc (this is possible in the rom own init.local.rc file too)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] L_S:
Could you make a small guide of how do that?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] pilu1978:
As I remember just need to add drm and drmrpc id in android_filesystem_config.h and need to add these ids to the android_ids struct.

In the init.rc need to start drmserver with drm user (this is possible from the rom with the init.local.rc file).

Now on mobile and can't check the sources, so maybe I forgot something. :)

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Hefko:

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CnC-ROCK:
not asking for ETA or anything.. just that the kernel has not been updated now for 4 months, 3 weeks and 5 days. i saw alfsamsung make a post that v10 is being tested but that was long time ago. so just wanted to ask if the kernel will be updated any time soon
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
@alfsamsung

Are there two types of vSync - HW vSync and SW vSync? If so, which one is disabled in your no-FPS-cap kernel? Mine has the HW one disabled and I was wondering whether disabling SW vSync (if there is one) would actually bring any improvement in performance, when I saw FeraVolt talking about it in the X10 CM10 thread.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
@CnC-ROCK: soon...

@sgt. meow:

In my kernel I have hw_vsync allways off and the no_fps_cap version has vsync off. The performance can be improved by turning off vsync, but this can create screan tearing wiki.The optimal setting is probably vsync on and a cap at ca 60fps, but this is a matter of taste I think. And that is why i have 2 versions of the kernel.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
v09c is finally ready(I hope;))

If you upgrade from 09a reinstall rom or replace system/etc/hw_config.sh and system/lib/hw/lights.*.so with original files from rom.

Thanks to Djnilse and the testers: DeFcOn and Xmaster8
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Kumczak:

Thanks alfs samsung

I HAVE ONE QUESION... IS POSSIBLE PDATE CWM TO VERSION 6 OR THIS THIS?????

IS POIBLE UPDATE TO LINUX 2.6.35??

CAN YOU ADD PEGASUSQ MODULE FOR X8???

THANKS FOR YOUR WORK...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
@xperiafan13

I don't know about alfsamsung, but I'll try to tell you what's possible and how in the shortest way possible:

1) CWM 6 - possible, but since it's buggy (JBMP used it once; couldn't create backups properly) it's not used.

2) CWM touch 5.5.0.4 - possible if someone compiles the binaries (a version is here but it's too buggy)

3) Upgrading to 2.6.35 - not possible, because -

a) a lot of things won't work

b) it will take ages, and by the time it's done, no one will be using the X8

4)PegasusQ - possible but it's not a module; it's a governor.

The best possible things out of the 4 are probably the addition of the governor (though I highly doubt it will improve the performance) and adding CWM touch 5.5.0.4. But I think the current kernel still provides optimum performance.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mayurcools:
why turned off hw_vsync? :confused:

what improvement you get by turning off hw_vsync?

what if hw_vsync turned on and sw_vsync turned off?

i think this will reduce cpu overhead and screen tearing.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
@mayurcools

Ummm...no. Turning off both hw vsync and sw vsync

causes

screen tearing. Turning off just hw vsync doesn't really do that. I haven't tried disabling sw vsync as well as hw vsync. Will try it later. And I think turning off hw_vsync increases benchmark scores, by a bit, and may also improve gaming just a wee bit. Turning both off, however, provides better results, as well as screen tearing sometimes.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Asycid:
I have "random" reboots with the newest 9c CM7 and PrimeHD10. Freshly flashed (from orig. 2.1, as usually). I couldn't get a good adb logcat yet, but working on the thing :)

It reboots very often (but not always) when I'm trying to add a widget to home page (I tried Next Launcher and ADW too), and sometimes when I open facebook, or any other bigger application. So I'll try to get some usable logcat.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] mayurcools:
thanks but my question was turning "on" HW_vsync for preventing screen tearing and turning "OFF" SW_vsync for reducing cpu overhead.

is it possible?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] pilu1978:
Update to. 35: really hard work, and basically useless now because the most performance related thing backported from. 35 and newer kernels. The fully. 35 kernel is nice, but why want it when this kernel filled with codes from .38 and 3.0+ kernels?

PegasusQ: possible, but why? The PQ governor designed for multicore cpus, so with our ONE cpu core we can't win anything with this governor.
