Main Kernel - ArcKnight Kernel RC2

After flashing that kernel my phone keeps rebooting by it self. Please help me!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Do you have any UV applied before? Please provide more details on what your specifications are?

What Phone?

What ROM?

Did you come from Another Custom kernel? etc....
[Xperia Arc Android Development] datagubben:
Hello Jimbo:)

Can you make kernel for the new Arc firmware please! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] windmoon:
Hello Jimbo,

The New 4.0.4 is unable to use with your RC2, I updated the phone to 4.0.4 then flash this kernel, after that can't bootup, need FTF again = ="

Miss your Kernel ... hum...

Thanks~~~
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
I haven't tried myself but I can't create new sources until Sony releases the sources... I'm sorry guys...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] windmoon:
Hello Jimbo,

This is not your problem, we wait Sony release the kernel sources

And 4.0.4 is very battery friendly, like GB 2.3.4

And very smooth, even I can't OC = ="

Thanks~~~
[Xperia Arc Android Development] heihei_ivan:
agreed

both arcknight rc2 and doomkernel ics v5 seem to be incompatible with ICS 4.0.4

maybe sony changed sth significant? :p
[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
I´m running Arconium ICS 3.c (4.0.4) with ArcKnight RC2, everything works perfect, fast, stable and great battery life (up to 48h)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
This is very unlikely. Only changes that possibly were made are drivers but such changes are not "visible" to the system
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Tarzan-:
I've used with modded Rom and now with acronium and it works just fine. Make sure to do clean flash and then flash respective modules.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pulz:
Sources.

I think the .431 sources have been released.

Please check the sony dev website to verify.

I saw a thread for .431 kernel with CWM. If it's available already with recovery implemented, isn't it possible to develop a new kernel from those sources ?!

I'm not really into developing (into medicine myself), but really curious.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Would you mind linking me please? I've checked HERE and there are no signs of .431 sources yet...

Well the CWM recovery is added by splitting current kernel.sin and then changing the ramdisk for one that has CWM working. So no actual modification to the kernel is done.

Once sources are released I can work on an update.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] pulz:
Nope !

I was wrong.

The sources havent been released yet.

I'm sure you would be checking them more frequently than me.

Even so, if I come across them, will make sure I post a link here.

thanks and take care !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dietervsx:
I am really looking forward into your kernel version of the official 4.0.4.

Actually I can't wait, so hurry up sony devs. This guy is doing a great job!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArmorD:
Yo Jimbo, any chance you'd make kernelwith custom recovery(in addition for the original)?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Hi there!

Firstly, great kernel, I've been using since RC1. Just wondering is the display of a visible mouse cursor something needs to be integrated in in the kernel or via the rom?

I've tried several different mouses via both usb and bluetooth and cannot get a viable mouse cursor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Thanks for the Support! It really motivates to keep it going.. For a moment I thought of stop working on the Kernel but looking at the support of people like you it's just impossible :)

I'm on the plans of doing so... currently I'm trying to figure out how to build it, remember I'm not an expert but I learn FAST... I will push my own custom CWM Recovery but it will take time, Thanks for the Support as well ArmorD

Hey! Thanks for the support! :)

I don't think it is Kernel related. I haven't seen anywhere on the sources where it can be enabled, but i do remember an app that use to do that...

I just can't remember the name of the app, it was something related to a mouse pointer, you can search on the Android Apps and Games forum.. There is where i saw it back in the time :)

@ALL - New version will come along soon, I hope i can release it today :D... IT IS SMOOTH!!!!!!!

Stay Tuned guys!

Jimmy
[Xperia Arc Android Development] drew261920:
nice we're all waiting on your next kernel release :D

great work! keep it up
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sanchit:
does this kernel work with the stock ics ? well because i have the 0 % battery problem i haven't been able to update to ics (4.0.4). Please could any one give me a solution to this problem:confused:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Saiger:
1: yes this kernel work with stock

2: to avoid battery problem change the rom or kernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sanchit:
i tried using this kernel after installing the stock ics but i kept getting an error ...android system has stopped working and the messaging also wasn't working :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] macmeier:
I can only choose from two governor: Conservative and performance.

Could you add some more when you release v3?

Thanks for that.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
Flash the modules package, ondemand will be available.. For the rest, you have to insmod those modules.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Other Governors and Schedulers are included in the Addon zip file. You'll have to flash it and then insmod what you need. I think I'll add them to the kernel to avoid confusion :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] omarfaieq007:
can I install this on ICS official and locked BL?only rooted and CWM installed..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
No. Locked bootloader will not allow custom kernel to be executed.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Zocker Tko:
Yes please,

I use your kernel with arconium ics 1.0, and have no problems with camera. And please add undervolt function. Thx
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Why everybody is after undervolting? It doesn't give considerable power savings.

More important is to check which driver prevents system from deep sleep (causes power drain)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
That is correct. I have modified the voltages table according to the tweaks I made to the governors. So if you lower the voltages further it might cause instability with my modified governors...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Juztapose:
ARC-Night-ICS-BETA-Modules.zip

what should I do with it? do i have to install it after the kernel flash?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Yes, install from recovery after kernel flash
[Xperia Arc Android Development] p47r0n:
Any ideas why this kernel freezes for me? It works when my charger is connected, but not without it.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] macmeier:
Maybe I did a mistake, but I don't have any other governors after flashing the modules.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tb205gti:
Just flashed the kernel and incorporated the modules in my ROM. Arc S is running at 1GHz and not 1.4 like it should.

..can you _please_ make a kernel with std. Sony bootlogo? In the environment I use my phone I cannot have a different bootlogo :( I'd _really_ lov if you could make one with the std. sony logo.

As for other errors or issues - I'll start testing right now :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] h.debnath:
@jimbo77

Instead of using insmod for the extra governers and schedules, I'd suggest putting it with the kernel itself just like doomkernel for easier installation and CPU config.

So until that happens I guess I'll stick with doomkernel for now cause for some reason I cannot get the insmod to work and I really wanna try out your kernel !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Thats what I'm gonna do in version 3. I'll incorporate them to the kernel. Version 3 will be out tonight midst likely :)

@All: for the boot screen, can anyone create a nice boot screen for me? Im nota graphical designer so im kinda list there :(. I'd like something simple in dark colors :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tb205gti:
:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gen_scheisskopf:
Well....

It is simple and rather dark :p

(Samsung Spica users should recognize this ;) )

Seriously- say what would you like to have on the bootlogo
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Why not something like the one posted a while ago? Something including the Sony Logo and the name of the Kernel (Night Kernel) and at the bottom "by Jimbo77" :D I'm sorry but I'm not skilled in that kind of things haha ...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Istvan_86:
In my opinion the image that soumya_digi was make is really good ^^
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
What about this :

or simply

??

:D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcMan09:
Till now none of the custom kernels in our development section are not compatible with the official .431 fw Stock.It gives us a lot of force closes & No network ( Carrier) But in other custom rooms these kernels work very nicely with no issues.

P.S. There are Lot Of Errors. When using Any Custom Kernel On Stock Based From I.e .431 Fw.& I m Damn sure This All our Kernel Related Problem & Not the From Related Problem.

I Have Tested It Itself.:cool:

Good job with this kernel jimbo, thank you !

I hope we'll see your kernel in cm 7/9 roms soon !!!

ArcKnight Kernel - RC2.2 - "Why So Smooth??"

Joker Edition!!

ChangeLog:

BootLogo Changed - Thanks to LiquidRobotics for the work

Kernel Compiled using Tiny RCU instead of Tree RCU, This should work better with less Memory footprint/usage

Kernel Compiled with SLQB Allocator instead of SLAB. All Tasks/Operations should be completed faster than before...

Added BFQ IO Scheduler

Kernel Patched with CK2 patch set

Kernel Patched with BFS (Brain F### Scheduler) - Now the system should be more responsive and faster...

CFQ IO Scheduler Disabled

Added New Adreno Sources From Xperia Play - Huge Thanks to Sirkay for the Tip

Some Ref Links:

*- SLQB Allocator

*- BFS (Brain **** Scheduler)

*- RCU (Check on Tiny RCU)

*- BFQ IO Scheduler

The Kernel still doesn't work with the latest .431 FW Release, We have no new sources AND I think the problem is related to the ramdisk (Need to check it Tough) so what I've done is to flash any custom ROM and it should work just fine, or you can pull the system using adb move the /system/vendor apps to system/app to avoid the FC's issue. I've tested with both Arconium 3c and JJ'r 3b and all is good here. I strongly recommend you to TEST the combination of both BFQ IO SCHEDULER and my CONSERVATIVE governor... It should give you great smoothness with great Battery Life....

Download Links as always on 2nd Post

Please do test the Kernel and let me know your thoughts or concerns regarding this new build.

Please consider a small DONATION if you like my work or if you'd like to help in fund an upgrade for my hardware.

Thanks for the support...

[Xperia Arc Android Development] drew261920:
nice :) will try ur kernel now :D

jimbo is it possible that u make the CWM interface like on doom with easy factory reset with no many "no"? thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Mmmm tastey new kernel. Stuff mowing the lawn today, ive got a new kernel to play with :-)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Hi Jimmy, thank you for another release of ArcKnight Kernel, really like the "Joker Edition" logo. :)

Will be flashing it and testing today, with Arconium 3.c

BTW, I was wondering: Why kernels don't move to the 3.X version and stay in to 2.6.X ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iambroken:
Flashed the 2.2 to use with JJ's hybrid v3.0

set it as suggested by you Jimbo to bfq and conservative...

seems to be all good plus it's extremly smooth :)

loving it!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dark Fable:
Works fine on my .431. :D Thank you so much.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] robin236265:
works on JJ hybrid v3.0b, seems quite good till now...just a question, seems not support zram and swap function?

Μπαμπη δουλευει το Kernel 2.2 με την Arconium 3c? δεν θελω να ρισκαρω προβληματα γιατι χρησιμοποιω το link2SD!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Grzesius:
who tested it ? How long is battery life ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] abrarabbu:
Someone help me.

After flashing kernal and modules when I switched on phone, many of my apps were gone. it was constantly showing process phone stopped and my network was fluctuating btwn on and off.

why did it happen?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
It works just fine, RC 2.2 Kernel with Arconium 3.c ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] babygau:
I'm supposed that you're on official .431, this kernel explicitly says that it's just compatible with custom .431 ROM (like JJ, acronium, mooded...) please read carefully before you flash the kernel.

The official .431 have a separate directory /system/vendor/app where Sony put its bloatware and its component, that directory is read-only. This kernel is not supposed to include that directory link so you missed that directory on your ROM, hence you got those issues.

Mine working like a charm & flawless on KA20.1
[Xperia Arc Android Development] eryen:
With lt18 firmware, which provides more system partition size, included all app in one partition. There is no fc problem.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] iambroken:
in over 6hrs i went down by 50% but with really heavy usage. Screen on for 1 and a half hour, gmail sync, talking, messages, photos, instagram, some gameing and so on. So I have good hopes about the battery :) But still i think it's a bit early to say.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcMan09:
BECAUSE ALL CUSTOM KERNELS ARE NOT FRIENDLY WITH OFFICIAL LT15i .431 FW.

HOPE SOME DEVELOPER MIGHT FIX THIS ISSUE FOR ARC USERS.

f*** issue for arc users.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] smsconim:
Works very well with Mooded 80.8,very stable and I think a little faster, the battery, time will tell.

I had doomkernel v5.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xMimyx:
Really Lovin' your work !

Can't wait to see what's the boot Animation is " related to ( Joker Eidtion :D ) "

Thanks ..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Guys small update!

Apparently I missed the BFS configuration on the config file of the Kernel hehehe my bad!!!.

So for now the Kernel is using only Tiny RCU, SLQB Allocator and BFQ IO Scheduler.... I'll include the BFS scheduler in the next update...

Sorry about that and please keep giving feedback so we can improve the Kernel experience!

Have a Nice Weekend everyone :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xMimyx:
Feedback ..

well , Amazing Photo , I thought It would be smthg for Joker duo to " Joker edition :D " but It's still very nice photo .. =)

well , about it I've used it with Team Xperia SE.Tweaked ICS ROM v3.0

and , It worked fine for like 3 hours , after that I've copied about 3 gb to the memory card , and since after that the mobile won't boot up after sleeping ..

once the background turns off , It never goes back on , I tried restarting it couple of times and nothing ..

also I've tried to increase the CPU's values , now the minimum is at 400mhz , and the same problem ..

I've flashed Doom kernel and It works perfectly with the ROM .. even after those files are in the memory ..

Update , after flashing Doom Kernel , I flashed your Kernel again , and It works like a CHARM !

Could yo pls tell me what's goin' on .. ?!

or was it the mobile tryin' to read the memoy ...,?

and what exactly happened when I've flashed Doom's kernel , what did fix that ... ?

thanks in advance and sorry for many questions ... =)

Best regards ..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fearless139:
nice logo, and nice slogan!

"Why so smooth!!" :))
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
And I was wondering what was going wron, because I had my battery completely drained during the night. It had to do something with the Scheduler I guess.

I will return to Intellidemand and VR scheduler and see if everything is fine again.

PS: The logo is awesome..!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mr.alawi:
Hey Jimbo77

i really like your work even though i haven't used it yet :P

just this morning i moved from GB to ICS and the first thing i did was flashing

LT15i 4.1.B.0.431 Generic Global World

and then i flashed your kernel then i flashed ROM KA20.1 and everything worked fine except my WiFi :( ... so i saw your first post and you said :

"If you come from DoomLord's Kernel (ICS) you'll need to flash the file doomed151 kindly uploaded for your WiFi to work!!! go HERE"

so i thought thats the problem and i flashed the file from doomed151 but still got the same problem

then i flashed Doomkernel with wifi modules and still Wifi isn't working

so i went back to your kernel and flashed modules for joker edition and flashed the file from doomed151 and

my wifi still not working ... is there anything i did wrong ? please help me i hope you or anyone who is seeing this question and know how to solve it would tell me

thank you for your help and again thank you for this kernel and i hope it will be my favorite kernel for ICS ROMs :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] flakinarist:
for me, ondemand + noop is quite smoother and needs less battery on 768mhz than your suggestion.

but it could be because you forgot bfs :D

anyways... the logo is nice, but a bit too large for me - i'd like to have it smaller.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] babygau:
Try the following steps:

flash kernel -> flash rom -> flash wifi module

hope it works
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Duvel999:
Read Post 2 of this topic

download the joker kernel & modules..

this has to work.

otherwise go to

stock kernel of Colbrato with Dooms stock wifi modules

..

good luck:cool:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] smsconim:
I had doomkernel, I flashed the joker kernel, then rom (Mooded 80.8), then the doomed151 and last the joker module for this order and everything works.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Many problems with Arconium 3.c and ArcKnight RC 2.2 with every governor and IO.

Freezes, reboot, battery drain, GSM not working great. Something clearly went wrong with that release Jimmy, or it just in't compatible with Arconium 3.c

I had to reflash Version RC2 and even gave another ROM/Kernel (AOKP) a try, for a complete ovehaul of the phone. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dark Fable:
What will be the best governor and I/O for gaming , except Performance ? [:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fearless139:
It works flawless for me. I also use 3.0c.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ajgftw:
Not to dismiss your experiences, but i'm not currently experiencing any of those issues using this kernel with arconium 3.c

I find sometimes that, for no logical reason, wiping everything and flashing the same thing again can get a different result than the first time!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mr.alawi:
thank you very much ! now my WiFi is working so well :D wow i'm starting to love

ICS and ArcKnight kernel :D thanks Jimbo77 for you great Kernel :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dark Fable:
Anyone else experiencing battery issues like it showing 20% and suddenly 1% and when you charge it , it shows 20% again in one second ? :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sebasgl1:
i dunno how do you do it, but this is by far the best kernel i ever tried. freaking snapy
[Xperia Arc Android Development] datagubben:
Can you fix the ramdisc problem for LT15, please?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shunkawakan:
Thanks for your new kernel. Works fine on Arconium 3c. A littlebit more batterylife, WiFi a bit faster.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
I havent has that issue at all! In fact my battery life is just awesome..

I have tried but need more testing though.. It is not easy, you should try any other Custom ROMS meanwhile...

@All: BFS has been added completely into the Kernel and if you think you know what is smooth... You should consider thinking it twice :D...

I'm doing the testing today and tomorrow will be the release date of Joker_Edition_BFS

Have a nice day Everyone!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hungragezone:
Nice :D

Last time i tried to use your kernel, i didn't remember exactly what rom but my phone was laggy alot ><

But now i hear from many pp that your kernel is great, i will try it again with new update of MooDeD rom on wednesday

Two update at the same week, awesome :D

Thanks Jimbo :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hootnath:
i am on the official miui 2.6.8 scotland based on .431. everything is force-closing.

UPDATE: i take that back. one of my build.prop tweaks was causing the FCs. i was on 2.5.11 (ics beta based one) on which the tweaks worked) so i assumed it was the kernel, but upon fresh installation of the rom sans any tweaks this kernel works fine.

OK Maybe Iam yust a bit stupid, but how do I change the IO scheduler? with Set CPU I just have the possibility to change the governor...

Hi Jimbo,

i am trying your new version kernel and it seems quite nice and stable.

Thanks for your effort :)

But one suggestions/wish: Could you please "build" your kernel so that the OC/UC tools like Incredicontrol can change all the settings (voltage, frequency, governor and I/O) ?

With every other kernel then Doomlords i have to use at least two tools. Doom's kernel does it with one tool.

That's one off the reasons that lets me stick to Doomkernel...

Kind regards

Basti
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Marchello1:
Im testing your kernel RC2.2 from the moment u released it, and i didn't found any bugs, its very stable, and most important, my battery life is at least 50% better now..
