[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] phoenix883:
Thank you bro, no lags, no bug yet and MORE RAMs
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] maliceomalice:
I really want to use this kernel after seeing a lot of encouraging comment. So...i need confirmation.

1.this kernel is working with which roms? Can u tell me the roms and the bug in the if any?

thanks...

How to make needed log ?

---------- Post added at 09:39 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 AM ----------

v4 - in recovery mount sdcard works - thanks.

As many users i've use this kernel with gingerXperia rom - in this rom still have trouble to mount sd to pc and recognizing (1:1) ext3. Maybe it from rom.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] fifo171:
for me it's working great, it's stable @768 MHz, with oc module on stock kernel i was getting reboots @748 :eek:

i got 1383 points in quadrant advanced :)

nice work, thanks mate :)

there's a root problem when using this kernel,i sometimes get your phone is not rooted problem and i cant update superuser binary files.

Can you cap fps to 60? I hate screen tearing
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] hajiborojobo:
usb otg is only in my dream?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
I have never seen any screen tearing on my phone.Is this on cypress?

Do it help if you put this line in build.prop

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=60
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
otg is in the kernel, but i have no device to test with.Did you try it?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] XperianPro:
I will test that.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kapocszoltan:
Thanks.

I'll test tomorrow.

Does swap file work better than in LinuxDX?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Asycid:
@alfsamsung:

I don't know who you are, but man! You just made my day! :D

Thank you so much! It's working really good, and the LAG on my Cypress X8 has gone with your kernel! Bro, I can't tell how happy I am now! :D Awesome. Million thanks to you!

(BTW to write something useful here: in FPS2D the average FPS is 89-90 with cypress now, but with LinuxDX it was 40 and lagging. I'll do some more tests tomorrow)

Even Active launcher is running without any lag or slowness with your kernel. just... wow.

I flashed the kernel over LDX with GingerDX v19 without any problem (made a clear cache though as you wrote).

Edit: I think my phone can't bare 729Mhz Overclock, it reboots at the moment I set the frequency to it (with SMARTASS V2), so I stay on 600Mhz because there aren't any values between 729 and 600.

Edit2: The sdcard's path has been repaired in this kernel as I see (maybe it was the patch?). Now there can be two paths: /mnt/sdcard or /sdcard. Good.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] akaSk8krew:
@alfsamsung

hi..i flash this kernel, wipe device, instal gdx 19, install vold patch, wipe device again and boot..i restore my apps with titanium backup, and next when i reboot my phone again, my apps don't appear..but if i go to root explorer and click to install any app that i have in my sd card, it asks me if I want to replace, then it means the apps are installed, but the apps don't appear..my widgets don't appear to for put in the homescreen..some mistake I have made? thanks in advance and GREEEAAAAT WORK:)))

AMAZING JOB!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dzadzev:
@alfsamsung

After few hours using your kernel I can only say ... WOW!

Not even one problem, everything is working like it should work ...

No wifi and screen tearing problem like someone mentioned, on the contrary wifi speed is little bit faster then linuxdx on the same network.

The kernel is VERY snappy, everything is faster then before, and BIG PLUS because I don't have to deal with that bug from linuxdx that was introduced after v002 (sensitivity problem in drawer and home screens when you accidentally open programs that you don't want when scrolling and difficult to move icons and widgets on home)

But yes, one small problem still persist in CM7 for cypress phones that was not there in CM6 ... sensitivity on bottom and right edge is crap, and this is problem only when you try to pull up the notification bar ... but that was already mentioned by few people on this and other threads.

Keep up the good work man xD
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dmcb123:
My wifi wont work with this kernel and cm nightly 13 :( any ideas how i can get it to work? (i tried full wipe and gingerDX v14 wifi fix but didnt help)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dzadzev:
This kernel is for GingerDX, read the title ;)

Using FXP kernel with any other ROM than FXP, wifi don't work ... also using LinuxDX and Alfs kernel with any other ROM then GingerDX, wifi will probably not work ...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] akaSk8krew:
GOOD:) you deleted folder modules of gingercruzt or simply flash the kernel, rom and vold patch?

sorry my bad english
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
I have working GCR on LDX kernel (I like swap:).

I flashed this kernel and deleted OC, UV, MDDi modules from rom (when OC module is present phone becomes unstable).

Flashed VOLD patch too.

Using GO Launcher and swapper2. Works just great!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bbeanss:
I've been using this Kernel for a couple of hours now and i must say that I'm amazed at the difference in performance, everything seems a hell of a lot smoother and from what i can see so far, ive noticed that my battery drain has slowed right down :) I'm very impressed, thankyou for your hard work and i hope to see more incredible developments in the future :)

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
What about multitasking performance (to clarify - speed of closing background apps, and switching between them)? Is it finnaly same as on Froyo?

I hated Gingerbread cuz of this :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] timpot07:
oopss.. bro, it was released already.. :D thanks again.. Its really nice to be one of the testers.. :D

btw, this is really a good kernel.

but how to use wifi tether?do i need any apps?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] XperianPro:
He still didn't include newest USB driver he can still add 7 MB of ram.

You can use CM setting

If you use gingerdx

Use wifi tether in market

Because gingerdx doesent have wifi tether option on cm setting

Hey Buddy

This custom kernel only works on GDX or other Rom too ?

Very Confusing cause i install GC8.2 with Alfs Kernel but wifi didn't work it just scanning

Any Solutions for that ?

Advance Thanx
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] <Twinsen>:
I have GC 8.2 with alfs kernel v03 and wifi works just fine. Going to upgrade to v04 today.

On a side note, for all of you who OC your x8 and leave it so for daily use, how long does your battery last?

Be sure to remove oc module from ROM.

Mine is working stable on 787 :D

When I not delete OC module it is very ustable even on 768.

And DONT try to UV when OC :P

@alfsamsung

What are your CPU voltage values on 600, 729, 748, 768 and 787MHz respectively?

Maybe you can increase it a bit to make those frequencies more stable. Just a suggestion.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wend0:
Awesome kernel! But i have random reboot at 787 mhz.

Inviato dal mio X8 usando Tapatalk
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DeFcOn:
Yeah! It's same for me :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
Oh cmon, If it reboots on so high just try lower.

Every1 phone is bit different like CPUs in PC - one can be over clocked and another form same series not.

Works on 850? great! Reboot on 720? Pity, but YOU CANT FIX IT. MOVE ON AND STOP SPAMMING.

He can't increase it more. It's maxed already.

Follow the link on the first page to the source of his oc. Follow to arch/arm/mach-msm and open acpuclock.c you'll find that the clocks are already set at voltage parameter 7 which is 1.35 volts.

Skype is still rebooting for those that wanted to know
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kapocszoltan:
I tried it and, Yes unfortunatelly it reboots :S
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] PaganBlood:
so sad! Does anyone have any idea of what Can Be?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] doixanh:
Compatibility with chargemon is the cause of reboot with skype, like we had that in old time with hackdroid.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kulen:
Even if we have this problem with alfs v3 without chargemon and v4 with chargemon?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Amrooz:
maybe someone can upload a logcat for the skype problem?

plug the usb cable with debugging enabled and generate the logcat "adb logcat > logcat.txt" and place the skype call
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Hoerter:
help me please .. :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Amrooz:
did you install the vold update AFTER installing the ROM and wipe the cache?

did you try to full wipe?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kulen:
Some app may be the cause of this.

I can't connect with or without debugging on.

But I had this problem since I installed alfs v3. So now after installing v4 with chargemon I also reinstalled GDX v019 and vold and chargemon updates.

I tested with and without debugging on, and SD card mounted with no problem to PC.

After I reinstalled all apps I press "Turn on USB storage" but nothing happens (just that circle that represents waiting turns around).

When I get some time I'll try to find out which app causes this.

Can I do it from Terminal Emulator.

I tried a few times for some other things but I'm not sure I did it right. so step by step instructions would be helpful.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Asycid:
This is caused by Swapper2. Just turn it off before you want to connect SD to PC
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Amrooz:
yes you can do it from terminal emulator

open the emulator

type su "it might ask for superuser permissions so allow it and restart emulator

after restart type su again

then type logcat > /sdcard/logcat.txt

you can change "/sdcard" to any location you like
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Hoerter:
yes i did it

i was install vold update and my sd card detected

but if i turn off USB storage my phone can't be detected, so confused :(

so you mean some app on my phone is causes ?

i had plan to clean up my internal memory , what should i do ? :confused:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
I just tested skype on Gdx with version04-with_chargemon + chargemon update.zip and everything is working fine here.tested call with 2g,3g and wifi, and no errors or reboots
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] darknessx10:
Please someone explain me how to fix the f***ing sd unmount error pleasee D:
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Amrooz:
maybe tell us details about your error?

if you having the sdcard unmounted every time the screen turn off then the following instruction should work with you as it worked with me

1- flash the kernel

2- full wipe

3- install the Rom

4 full wipe again

5-install the vold update

6- wipe cache

7- reboot

Don't restore from back up or you will get same error again
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] darknessx10:
It happens every time I try to connect the phone to my pc
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Amrooz:
same instruction should help wiping cache after updating the vold is so important

and restoring from backup "even if restore data only" keeps the error
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] darknessx10:
Thanks, I fixed that annoying bug

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cuecak:
why i always need to clear dalvik chance everytime i got reboot.. if iam not doint that,,, my ext3 just gone.. is anyone got problem like me? and after reboot all setting on cpu just back to default[its normal?]

anyway.. thanks for the rom DX,, and the kernel alfa,,
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] akaSk8krew:
for the cpu settings, tick set on boot ok?? it's in cm settings, where you change the cpu freqs..for "my ext3 just gone", i have this problem too, for example, when i enable or disable swap..my solution when my ext3 don't mount, is reboot 2 times..i don't know why but works..i reboot 1 and nothing, i reboot 2 and ext mount:) wheel in the air

sorry my bad english..

PS: btw @alfsamsung:

congratulations for this kernel:) the best for me:)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cuecak:
let me try it.. for the tick set on boot .. so u have the ext3 disapear too..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kulen:
thanks

actually I do not understand logic of logcat well. I know commands.

I'm not sure if this logcat is always written in some buffer so I just need to write it to txt document with logcat command, or is it only written to txt document when I write logcat command?

and if it's in the buffer, how far in history is it in that buffer? is it cleared on reboot?

and if I write "logcat >" for how long is it writing in txt? until reboot? until I close terminal? or maybe it keeps on and on until I write some command?

and how do I stop it in terminal emulator if I cant press ctl+c?

this is just my loud thinking so don't feel obligated to answer.

First thanks for checking this problem and thanks for great kernel.

After you wrote this, I tried skype again. and it seems it's not happening every time I make a call any more.

I tried a few times. and maximum number of calls before reboot was about five.

before (before v4) it rebooted every time I tried except one or two calls. don't know if it has something to do with kernel version or if it's coincidence, or with full wipe.

I also taught before that it may have something to do with not doing full wipe.

but yesterday I reflashed kernel v4 and GDX v019 and did full wipe. and reinstalled required updates. then I first installed skype and tested, and it rebooted.

I tried to make logcat so you (or somebody elese willing) can try to see what's the problem

I did this in terminal emulator:

su

logcat -c

logcat > mnt/sdcard/20111121logsky.txt

then I made call to skype test service.

terminal was in status bar when I started to make calls. didn't check later

first call was OK and I ended it

second call was OK but when I pressed "end call" (maybe it rebooted a moment before I pressed, no way to know that) phone rebooted.

then when phone rebooted I wrote this to Terminal emulator (because I'm not sure how logcat works):

su

logcat -d > mnt/sdcard/20111121logskyafter.txt

logs are in attachment. I hope they can help.

Thank you

P.S. It would be nice if somebody else with this problem does this. maybe from PC with adb.

P.S. 2: I only tried skype with wifi.

Will overclocking the GPU in the future?

P.s. what makes this app
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] csoresz2:
thats app is for remotely control you PC's fan, cpu and gpu voltage.

it isnt usable on android.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] rav3n_pl:
It will dump only last part, can't be used to log some longer things.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] alfsamsung:
@kulen Your logs is not from when the reboot happens. logcat And you have swapper installed and some equalizer.Try a full wipe and remove dsp manager or whatever equalizer you have installed and try again. A nice tool to view,filter and save logcat from is DroidExplorer on pc

And swap on sdcard partition is known for unmonting sdcard/making system unstable.If u use swap,make a swap partition or use at least swap on sd-ext

If you can provide a source with the fix,yes.I'm guessing you are talking abot the cypress driver,and as I said I don't have this on my phone.It's werry difficult when I can't test on my phone,and I'm not an expert...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] DeFcOn:
Someone provide it to you(i dont remember) and i can be tester...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
I'm sorry for Cypress users :(

Sinaptics work flawlessly.

@alfasamsung, are you considering FPS cap @ 60fps?

Consequences without any fps cap are:

Phone is running everything as fast as it can, so following problems are:

-screen on/off animation is way too fast,

-some games "lag" (if more object are shown, fps will drop and that will cause the lag)-you can try Fruit Ninja, you can see it there easily.

-Noticable screen tearing - when you scroll, fps is just way to fast - our screen can't refresh at that rate.

- drains more battery

That FPS cap should keep phone smooth. I don't think the phone will drop bellow 60fps.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dzadzev:
@DDI

I don't have any of those problems that you mentioned, using GDX 019 & Alfs 04

Ok, screen on/off animations are maybe faster then before but I like it this way ...

And about that lag and screen tearing (that was mentioned only by you and one more user) ... I'm sorry but I don't see any screen tearing on my phone ... different screens have different capabilities
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
It's not a problem or a bug, dude.

It's a tweak. Yeah, try to run fps2d and you will get up to 90fps. Lets be real, you don't need that much.

Do you know what is screen tearing? It's caused by fps uncap. So, just try to scroll around. You will notice how itmes become blurry while scroll!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Graveir:
I like the faster on/off animation too... No lags in games on my synaptics phone and no screen tearing (just tried scrolling through an sms thread in handcent, no tearing, just minor lags on loading). Dunno about battery drain, it seems pretty much the same to me, when I use the screen a lot...
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Dare-Devil Inside:
Well, I just mentioned animation... but scrolling is fast and blurry. Try to scroll in music library, or something.

At least, ponanovn agrees with me. :D
