i,ve installed it,no problems seems to work very well...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kico. St:
Can you please upload the ftf version of your kernel because im on a rooted arc but with a locked boot loader & i want to flash it via flashtool?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Impossible my friend... You need an unlocked boot loader because the official ftfs are signed with SE keys...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Kico. St:
I dont have the arc unlocked but it is rooted... Do you think it will work with fastboot method?

I really love to overclock... Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] LiquidRobotics:
No way with locked Bootloader, you have to unlock if you want to flash a Custom Kernel

ArcKnight_RC3.5 --> Update!

Hi Guys!

ArcKnight_Kernel: RC3.5 - Stock and OC Versions:

Changelog for both Versions:

Removed BFS Scheduler - It was the cause of all the "Weird" touch issues, I'll try to implement it again later on once I figure out how to reduce the "Extreme" responsiviness of the Screen :laugh:

Added ZRAM Driver.

Removed the 122MHZ freq.

245 MHZ freq. is now the lowest by default to avoid "wakeup" lags.

ArcKnight_II Governor Updated to match the new frequencies.

USB OTG modules preconfigured and are now part of the Kernel, no need to insmod them again... Just attach your USB OTG device and you'll be set :laugh: :laugh:

Some minur bugfixes that I don't remember at the moment :silly:

Zram will provide a smoother UI and Kernel Experience so as Multitasking BUT it might affect performance with Heavy or RAM Hungry Games...

I need you to please test how is battery life when Zram is Activated...

Downloads are in 3rd Post :D...

Happy Flashing!!

Jimbo
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DzikBagienny:
Dude, U are my HERO ;)

I install stock CPU and still I have 122MHZ freq and WiFi doesn't work with wifi modules :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] -sheldor-:
Same here, no WiFI.. :(

Edit: Using Stock-based Kernel and JJs ROM, just for your information.. I used ArcKnight Kernel 3.3 before.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Sorry guys... I'm already off from work so I'll have it fix by tomorrow my timezone hahaha...

ETA around 18 hours :) in the meantime can anybody confirm of Zram works??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DzikBagienny:
How can I check that? :-)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] -sheldor-:
Looks like ZRAM doesn't work as well.. or maybe I'm doing something wrong :(

RC_3.5.1

ArcKnight Kernel RC3.5.1 - Wifi and Zram Fix!

Ok Guys!

I've had to recompile the RC_3.5 Kernel in order to fix the Wifi issue and the Zram issue as well. The changelog remains the same, only difference now is that Both Wifi and Zram are working Properly.

Please download your Prefered Version of the Kernel (Stock Based CPU or OverClocked CPU) and test again, you'll NEED to download and flash the ArcKnight_RC3.5.1_Test_Version_Modules.zip in order to have Wifi and Zram Working.

ZRAM Configuration:

The Zram Configuration running for this specific Build is:

Swapinnes was set to 60

Zram Disk Size is around 96~100 MB

If you need more space on your Zram Disk just type this on Terminal Emulator:

echo $(("Disk Size"*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize

Where "Disk Size" is the ammount of MB's you want, for example you want a Zram Disk of 200MB's just type:

echo $((200*1024*1024)) > /sys/block/zram0/disksize

Please Test the new Version and if you make sure to leave feedback and if you're willing to help or support my work just click on the Donate Button and send any ammount you can or want :D...

Happy Flashing Guys!

Downloads are at 3rd Post!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OmarBizreh:
Wifi is back ^_^

I was one step away from reverting back to 3.3 till but you were one step ahead of me by adding the update :D

Thanks :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Fishmanzero:
Thank you for ur excellent work for the arc users! Using ur kernel on my gf's arc s. Things go very well~

And would you please pack the kernel img file into a zip or rar? Just in case of any download problems, an archive file can verify the file when unzip which I think is safer.

You must be using the Stock based one right? I didn't remove it from that Config... hahaha

3.3 is the most balance between smooth ui and smooth game. I've tried 3.5.1, the smoothier in ui is not noticable as laggier in game, as you said in changelog. I'll stick with 3.3 :D

On my device, UI is not smooth at all since rev 3.5.1...

Is there a way to disable zram to see if it helps ?

(and for example, benchmarks dropped from 26 to 21 (nenamark), 3300 to 2500 (antutu),...)

And the best one... Wifi was working fine yesterday, but no more today!

(of course 3.5.1 modules installed)

I'm trying to reflash krn+modules...

Edit : 3.5.1 kernel+modules flashed again, but no wifi ! Back to 3.4 krn+modules and wifi is OK ! Anybody else having the same issue ?

@DzikBagienny : IMHO it is not necessary if you're only updating the kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] arhooker:
WiFi work fine in 3.5.1

And IO performance is very good, my SD Card speed is write 15MB/S Read 18MB/S, more then 3.4, and system performance seens amazing even I turn swap to sd.

3.5.1 is worderful kernal.

Probably you just did a fast boot boot try doing fastboot flash boot command on CMD or use flashtool to flash it

Damn arcknight governor is very smooth better than smartass..how can u doing that..pretty amazing jimbo

And for scroll i have no problem..the scroll no lag and smooth

Before i use sirkay kernel and scroll not pretty smooth like on your kernel

Will test and report battery life

Using RC 3.5_1 oc version on arconium 4

And also wifi signal is better on your kernel

Good job jimbo

Sory for my bad english :lol:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gu5t3r:
Does using 122MHz instead of 245MHz saves battery on stock kernel?

I'm asking because both frequencies use 900mV?

I read somewhere that using 122MHz only increases battery usage because processes need more time to finish instead on 245MHz?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] zohaib0001:
one bug in you kernal recovery

hello i am a rom developer and i test your latest ics arc kernel its great but there is one bug in new recovery of your kernel

as we know in ICS 4.0.4 rom we have a folder in system with the name of ( vendor )

when i wipe and flash any ics rom with your kernel it did not flash the vendor folder in system rom

but i now about one kernel name Xarc if we used this kernel it flash vendor folder completely , please can u port recovery from Xarc kernel to your kernel. here is the link of Xarc kernel

[Xperia Arc Android Development] zohaib0001:
i think it is not because of recovery may be this error in your kernel

please fix this error so the vendor folder should be flashed with Rom in system

Whatever setup I do, however I flash this, I always experience effin random reboots. I know it's not the kernel's fault because it seems like I'm the only one having this trouble. Could you please advice me on how to solve this or at least trace what's causing it? :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Guys I just wanted to tell everyone that development will be stopped must likely since I'll be selling my Arc tomorrow... I'm aiming for a most up to date phone and I have the option for both Xperia S and SGS3 but I need $150 extra. I'm gonna be getting $200 for my Arc in order to be able to buy the SGS3, the developer community over there is just awesome!

Its been a fun and a great learning experience but unfortunately it has come to an end :(

I know you'll be good and other great developers will come to make an even better kernel than mine there you have ThSega who is learning and ChaosFirZen who is already working on his kernel as well and of course Doom lord who is still working for the Arc...

Thanks for testing out my work and special thanks to those who donated to me I greatly appreciate it :D

Have a nice day and I hope to see some of you around other phone's forums in the future!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Daniel D.:
Thanks for your effort you put into the kernel. I'll keep 3.3 because of it's outstanding & brilliant battery life and performance.

Ask Sony about kernel version, it is their decision, we can't do anything about that. Jimbo stopped the development of this kernel, you'd know that if you would have read few pages back.

It´s true. I have the same bugs

I've just flashed the 3.5.1. Initially had some wifi issues but that was solved by deleting the files under the dhcp folder.

Not really a good judge of battery drain as I tend to fiddle with my phone all the time.

Will try this out for a while. But somehow, this does seem to be more snappier. Too early to tell though.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] hootnath:
i am getting random reboots (maybe just the gui crashes) with 3.3 (3.5.1 isn't much different either) both stock and oc versions. things were working fine with trinity kernel, but that post disappeared somewhere.

also, this arcknight seems to leave a lot more memory available for apps, trinity kernel was a big memoryhog.

that said, the random reboots are annoying me crazy. i've wiped dalvik as well as cache multiple times , cleared all my odex files made under tirnity kernel as well. i am clueless about whats causing these problems. i am thinking that it has something to do vdd settings. i tried lowering it from 900 to the 825 (for 122mhz) that was working fine on trinity, increased it back to normal etc. those problems aren't going away.

it is very likely that it has something to do with the GPU GPU too - i remember trinity kernel guy's having implemented some gpu tweaks that made it run super smooth.

with this arcknight 3.3 kernel the back of my fone (a spot close to top left while the screen is facing you) has been getting hot too. i didn't notice this problem with trinity kernel.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
First I need to clarify something for you...

Trinity Kernel was based out of my .562 (ICS Beta) Sources.... So the Kernel was outdated and basically a copy-paste ArcKnight Kernel RC2 with different name, the "Tweaks" the developer did were almost none, that's why some users were still getting black screens when playing "Temple Ruin"....

Now, if you are facing such issues I strongly recommned you to do a clean install of both kernel and ROM you are using... It might related to the ROM and not the kernel... If the issue was the Kernel then lots of users should be reporting the same bugs as you are but it is no the case here...

@All: I just came to say thank you for the support you have shown!! I'll try to post one more update to try to fix the wake up lag and remove Zram (I'm gonna base my update on RC3.3) but it will take some time since I don't have the device any more...

Stay Tunned :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] alfiemenace:
Yeah, that "developer" barely compiled things that is his own work, he just copy stuff from others and add his invisible tweaks. He made it seem that he adds a lot, and gives a lot of options that results to a lot of problems, and make those things useless.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] DzikBagienny:
It will be great ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] fearless139:
What's wakeup lag? I don't have any lag with 3.3
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jimbo77:
Some users have reported that waking up the device may take between 1~2 seconds before the screen shows... It's a small lag but it annoys some of the users..

I can't guarantee to fix it but I can give it a shot :)

It really sux that ur leaving us but I hope ur happy where ever u go. Just have one question. Building a kernel from sourse is no problem for me but these generic things like call lag or scroll lag. How do u know what to modify. Is it just a lot of random reading and exploration? I may try to publish a new kernel for everyone since I can't leave this phone for at least another year
[Xperia Arc Android Development] xtacy!:
@Jimbo77,

Any reason as to why you're planning on removing the zram? Isn't the whole point to make it more snappier?

Can we have the option of both the 122MHz and the 245MHz frequency steps?

I believe the WiFi package from the 3.3 were better.

And slightly deviating from this, but doesn't the Xperia S have the newer 3.0 kernel? Could you build it from that?
