em lets see... will do work on GPU clock control later...

this kernel will have to wait... i have to update ARC/PLAY ICS kernels and start work on SGSL ICS kernel... lets see may be i can post a quick update with high OC removed...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fsrkewd:
Is the wifi module for doomkernel different for different version (v2,v3)?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
yes.. .correct/compatible modules have been provided in the kernel package
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] neerajk:
i dont have recovery, i am on .67(bootloader unlocked)....how should i flash it?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
@doom, could we have the SIO I/O scheduler for DooMKernel? It serves my purpose better :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
I have Advance Stock Kernel! Can i directly isntall DooMkernel?

EDIT : I had advacne stock kernel. I installed the doomkenel thorugh recovery and it showed that it has installed! But when i reboot it still says " Advacne stock kernel"

I want doom kernel. What to do now?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
Flash it with fastboot.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
The doomkernel?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
Yes.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
Did it! But first time the phone crashes! And then it keeps on reebotin!

EDIT : i guess the boot.img file is corrupted! I flashed doomkernel thrice and all the time i got the same prob!

---------- Post added at 05:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

DooMLord!! You gotta help me!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
Flash any 900x kernel except 9003. And one more time you start getting so impatient you PM me asking for reply, I'll absolutely start ignoring you. Not a single person here owes you immediate tech support. Actually not a single person in here owes you anything. Sorry for airing that, but the next time this happens, I'm reporting you.

I know the scary feeling of owning a 32k paperweight.... Loll

I'm sorry but i was tensed! And thanx for the support! I wont repeat it again! :)

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

Can you tell me which one is actually best? And cant i flash v3a?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
V3a has the same bug. You can use any 900x kernel, they're pretty much the same in terms of performance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
Thanx my dear friend! :)

---------- Post added at 09:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 PM ----------

V3 crashed! Trying out 9009! It has shown no prob yet! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
I don't know if it is my XPERIA S's problem but it is constantly rebooting whenever I am installing lots of apps or installing a new ROM. My bootloader is unlocked but the same issue happened with me when I was with a stock ROM. I tried DooMKernel v03a and the test kernel 9002 but with same results. Should I take it to the service center or is something going wrong here?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcjuh:
Should try the stock kernel first ore even better... Try to install a stock firmware with fastboot. This way you get the stock kernell as well... Start from there...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
If it had problems wit the STOCK rom and kernel too, Then i guess its the prob with your SXS, because when mine was stock it shown no problem. I suggest to take it to the service center..

EDIT : Try DooMKernel 9009. My phone crashed when i tried v3a and v3, but 9009 had no prob.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
Thanks for your views kushpvo. Let me tell you what exactly is happening. The reboot occurs when I am doing the following things together at the same time-

1. Downloading multiple apps from Google Play Store

2. Start moving the apps to internal storage from phone memory.

Sometimes the reboot also happens when I am trying to run an app when an app installation is already going in the background. Is it my Sony XPERIA S that is at fault? This never used to happen with me with my Arc S and the phone surely doesn't get hot enough to reboot as a protective measure.

Tried DooMKernel 9009 but the same problem. I am thinking this is not a kernel problem in the first place. Either its a Gingerbread issue or my phone definitely needs a chiller at the nearest service shop. :(

Any views shedding more light on this issue would be very grateful
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] adiktz:
I dont know if its just me or anyone else, but I cant download the kernels, it keeps asking for username and password...!!!

Like this
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
They're doing something with the servers now.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] adiktz:
Okay...!!! I'll wait...!!! Thanks...!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
I guess the problem is with your SXS. Get it to the nearest store. But i am not sure if they will consider the warrenty when the phone is rooted or something. I am sorry about that. But what i am sure is that the problem is with your SXS as it also gave the same problem with stock kernel, right?

---------- Post added at 09:19 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 AM ----------

Which kernel? I mean what version? Can you provide the link please?

EDIT : Sorry i didnt knew about the servers! :O
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kushpvo:
I have installed diomkernel 9009! I find that gps isnt working!! ,
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] amfirbek92:
@ Doom

how is the GPU oc useful? what will be the difference?

hope the next release will have the best features of v3a and stable (KA rom)..and for me i see that no need for CPU oc..it's enough 1.5GHz Dual-Core :O

thank you
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fastcx:
:( Waiting for the previously said 2 kernels..would be the best kernel ever for our device
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
i am busy with personal work and right now i need to update ARC ICS kernel...

after that i will restart work on this kernel :)

P.S.: i am playing with something FAR MORE INTERESTING than this kernel... let me see if i can get it to work properly first...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] bustervic:
So I am curious, is there a consensus on which Kernel seems the most stable and performs well?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] adiktz:
Now that really raises my curiosity...!!!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
I think I just got myself into all the 'interesting' stuff. It's already nighttime here, but tomorrow I'll start hacking away I hope. And yes, I know what it is. And no, I'm not telling you :P

DooMKernel v04 released!

DooMKernel v04 released!

[ changelog ]

removed CPU overclock to 1890 Mhz (now max CPU OC is 1728Mhz)

removed GPU OC (now GPU max freq is 266Mhz)

added AROMA File Manager directly into the kernel (ramdisk)!! so u can have access to file manager operations RIGHT INSIDE RECOVERY!!!! (more information on how to access this is here)

download links at first post!

please test out and let me know how it goes!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] poo-tang:
@doom thanks very much hope its all good and fixed now:) But still wondering what was in the works few posts back (detail).
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] amfirbek92:
DoomLord u are amazing...i can't imagine a forum without ur developements :D

Hope the kernel will work perfectly..thanks

Edit: still ZRAM included?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
OK I don't know if anyone can corroborate this but the lag has gone. I am using KA05 ROM and had lags occasionally when swiping through home screens and apps but this seems to have solved the problem and it is now silky smooth. Thanks DooMLord
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] flow78:
Sorry but i think my Xperia S was faster with v3a than v4. And with Quadrant i had 3600 and now 2600 with v4
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] scook94:
Has the Aroma file manager been added in the Recovery menus yet?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] gm007:
Really??

Why don't you read 4 posts up?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
Quadrant isn't meant to show you the accurate performance but general device performance across all categories. You actually think it is slow because you have a lower benchmark score than before. The reason why it has happened is because the GPU overclock has been removed. Try playing some HD games and if you see a lag then, you could then report it as a bug. I got a Quadrant score of 3140 with v04
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] scook94:
Can you highlight it for me beacause I can't see where it says he added a menu option, only that it's included in the kernel now. If you read the link he implies that adding it as a menu option will be done later. I'm simply asking if he did, because if it's there I can't find it!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
There is no menu option. Check the post above. DooMLord has mentioned details of another post just above to show how you can access Aroma File Manager. Basically the file manager is saved in the SD card as aromafm.zip. When you enter recovery, go to the install ZIP option and locate the file. Just install it and you shall have a nice file manager from CWM :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] scook94:
Where do you think I got the idea that he was going to add it as a menu option? I was simply asking if he'd done this before releasing the kernel update!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
Relax mate... My priority was to get the kernel released... I will add it to recovery menu in later releases...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] scook94:
Thank you! It's sometimes very difficult to get a simple answer to a simple question on here!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sessel:
Hy , i've the same issue.But after the first reboot all is good it's the fps who lag.Now all is smooth.

ps: when we test a kernel the issue is not see in the 10 min after the install. We need to look it during 1 or 2 days, the device need time to be stable!! ;-)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fastcx:
I trust antutu more, and ui experience

EDIT: Mine ran 3343 Quadrant, 68xx antutu, 192~1512mhz. Seems in line with previous gpu non oc kernel, and this is stable on my phone without excessive heat.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] flow78:
And do you find your phone is faster? Because mine is slower on homescreen between each page
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] fastcx:

Screen doesn't wake up from charging

It happens twice. I left my phone to charge and after that the screen wouldn't wake up. When i pressed the power button, the transparent bar at the bottom illuminates but the screen stays 'off'.Pressing the power button many times might occasionally wakes the screen up. Maybe once in 20-30 tries. Pressing the power button and hold, may also wake the screen up. But only 1 in 5-10 tries.

Will try to flash the kernel again see if the problem re-occurs.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] gm007:
That is weird that I don't have problem with smartassv2.

When Undervolting the cpu use less power that improve battery life, and will not affect performance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Yakandu:
after some reboots smartassv2 works fine ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Evil_Sephiroth:
in touch recovery i can't do factory reset....

When I select factory reset recovery ask me if I want to continue, but nothing happen....
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
wooops i almost forgot...

the v01 kernel also has >>> GPU overclocked to 320Mhz

u can check the current GPU clock here:

cat /sys/devices/platform/kgsl-3d0.0/kgsl/kgsl-3d0/gpuclk

btw for the Snapdragon S3 chip the GPU also has scaling of 3-4 levels depending on GPU load...

yes there is a gfx bug there...

workaround is to use hardware keys to navigate that specific menu and hit "HOME" button to select "wipe"
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcjuh:
hey

wich app do you use for undervolting? besides the app that sets the frequency?

can i undervolt all at the same time ore how to set them.

tried all the three apps..

setcpu; works damn fast but cant realy set the govenor ( not that i can figure out lol) great ics-theme

nofrill; makes my phone go cracy with reboots...but has the new cool thing that you can watch the batt-use like cpuspy.

incredicontrole; nice app you can set cpu and the voltages. but seems to give a little lagg

all of these set min/max to 192 - 1728

smartassv2

cfq if possible
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] gm007:
i have noticed that the phone heat up very quickly,

was playing temple run for 10 minutes and the temp reach 42 degree C.

smartass 384/1512 deadline.

is that caused by the overclocked gpu??
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] royalbloodvi:
i noticed when using setcpu, it lags everywhere.. as soon as i disable it, its smooth again.. must be some bug..
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] denaz:
Mmh.. it was all fine 'till tonight.

My situation:

.73 FW, Smartass v2, Deadline, 192-1728.

I put the phone in aereo mode at 1:00am at 98%, i wake up (fortunatly) at 8:07am.

The phone didn't woke up in any way, i had to press power button and volume up. It turned on at the battery was at 56%.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sessel:
Hello , for me the same time of sleep. I'm in .73 with incrediControl cpu manager in interactive + noop and i put airplane mode i've 100/100 and i wake up with 99/100.after 2 hours of use 93/100 with web in wifi , xda app and some sms.

But yersterday i've the same probleme just after install the kernel, phone don' wake up.Now is stable ;-)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shuttleu:
only problem im having (probably to do with setCPU)

every 10 seconds i get a message from SU saing that SetCPU has been given SU permissions

like i said, i dont know if its the kernel or setcpu

this only happens when i use profiles though as i want it to underclock when the battery gets low so it lasts longer
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
could be... but the device heats up a lot in general...

yes even i ran into this issue some times... it seems some devices cant handle the now frequency of 192Mhz... if u change that to 384Mhz the problem will be resolved...

dont have multiple apps to set the cpu frequencies...

also u dont need to use profiles, u can use CPU governors for that... Smartass/SmartassV2 have inbuilt screen off profiles...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Yakandu:
DooM, two questions, The GPU is always overclocked with your Kernel? and.. waht was the stock value? i think not all the users want to overclock.

Oh and i think the boot cpufrec is set to max (1700) cpuspy tells me everytime i reboot that i used like 10secs of 1700mhz, then, incredicontrol sets the cpufrec to my parameters 192 - 1080. Can this be changed?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shuttleu:
i dont have multiple apps, just SetCPU

and i didnt realise SmartassV2 had that built in, thanks
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] piflechien:
I confirm some issues with the smartAssV2 governor.

It sometimes stays blocked at max frequency and if i then try to change to smartAss (V1) the phone reboots.

Also when I try to change frequencies on smartassV2 governor it freezes and might reboot the phone.

(I'm Using set CPU and phone is not hot)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
not always... on the S3 chip there are various level of GPU frequencies...

so when the device requires higher frequecnies for GPU only then GPU OC kicks in...

right now i have not implemented CPU freq cap... it will be done in next release...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Tigrer:
I confirm some troubles with smartass and smartassv2. Two times i found the phone off, and i can turn it on only with combination power button and vol+ :confused:

Sometimes smartassv2 is getting CPU to 100%

I use only No-frills CPU, 384-1512, smartass or smartassv2, deadline.

how to get into recovery?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] arc_u:
Power your phone and then push vol-up button when the transparent bar lights at DooMKernel logo (blue notification led also)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] somemadcaaant:
It's on the Doomrecovery thread op:

[ how to enter recovery? ]

the recovery entry key is VOLUME UP button... so when you see the bootlogo watch out for the following notification which will tell u when u press the entry key (VOL UP):

1. the LED will turn BLUE

2. the device will vibrate for short duration

3. the bottom strip will be illuminated

[ how to use recovery? ]

hardware keys

VOL UP/VOL DOWN key to move Up/Down in menu

I've the same issue with #4a
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] a4rocks:
Same here. I don't believe this is a kernel issue though. Somewhere I am thinking this is more of a GB issue here. ICS update might solve this. Are you using a widget or shortcut to turn screen off or using the power off button to lock phone?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
yes i too have noticed this to happen on v04 kernel...

i want to ask, did you guys face this same issue even on v01 kernel? if yes, then i will start another batch of test kernels to check where this issue has cropped in...

smartassV2 Bfq

for the first time i noticed that booting-up from lock screen it goes verry laggisch.

(lockscreen pops up in black takes about 3sec. to load the lock-pic. )

100% batt.message but its not 100%

the permission takes about 5sec to get it (luckypatcher and setcpu)

had 1 time that it didnt wakeup at all but reflashed the kernel after a fresh rom install and didnt had it again.(first time flashed kernel before flashing rom, 2nd time flashed rom and then the kernel with no buggs aside from the slagish bootup).

tried the 3a kernel with insalled rom and that booted verry quick....flashed back to 4a and back to slagish bootup....maby something with the core values at startup?????

didnt had it in V1 ore v1a ....but there the limit was not set at min-max 256-1728.... at bootup.....

First of all, thanks for this great kernels.

Besides this, I am using it since V3, now on V4, and did not yet faced this issue. For oc I am using default (no manual changes). ROM I am using KA5.2

But a bit hesitate to flash V4a until the root cause is found.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] zencooler:
It is the kernel issue. I haven't had this issue on stock 73.

I've got it on 03, 03a and now on 04a too.

I didn't remember was it on 01 or not...

Waiting for the issue solved Doom ;-)

And of course huge thanks for a great work and incredible recovery!

But the install of v4 kernel is not the same as v3. Doom make a install with reset boot and over evolution.
