u seem to have a LOT of stuff on ur SDCARD and installed in ur ROM :P

since the system partition is 1GB, data partition is 2GB and cache is ~300MB

before taking anybackup make sure that u atleast have 3.3 GB free to avoid any issues..

my recent backup was hardly 900MB in total :D

let see may be i can try incorporating compression support into the nandroid backups by recovery so the final backups will be smaller...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] poo-tang:
Thanks again. We test games mostly for our site can't help these filled up phones. At least with removable sd we could have a backup card. Is the no way to mount USB OTG in Kernals recovery and back up to a external memory. Or is that not pos?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
interesting... there is always a way :D

let me see what can be done...

@ doom ..

Why is your kernel based on the .62 (if im not mistaken) ????

my radio signal is worse at home than the .73...( im just a noob so i thought since i used your kernel its related)

my 2 sentce ;)

i use the BOX-app to store **** from my phone wich i can always anywere downl. by air this way al my apps and stuff are gone from the intern sd mem. ;)

@ doom

maby is it possyble to hook-up your phone to the pc and CHOOSE were you want to store the back-up like ON your pc from xrec. ;) keeps the phone clear as well...

(cus when mounting the sd from within the xrec thought you could make it so it stores it at your pc.???????????

now my phone flyes with the new kernel and settings im courious to see wich settings have the highest averidge wich cpu and gouvenour settings...

hope we can show them here :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sixdaysandy:
Doom, would it be possible to limit the initial CPU Frequency to Stock Kernel Default during Boot as you did on the X10 Kernels to improve stability? I'm not having any issues or anything I'm just a litttle wary about causing damage or bootloops in future?

How do I get NTFS to work from usb? I don't seem to get it to work...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
currently only the .62 kernel sources are available... so i am using them... once more recent ones are released i will keep updating to them...

yes i will implement that in next release... this release was done to check if the patches applied so far are stable or not... there is no point hurrying kernel releases unless the users test everythign out and we are certain that kernel source are stable...

not sure abt that...

there is no way for Xperia devices

hmmm i havent had the time to test... i will post some commands later to do testing...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Why we can't change kernel logo, Doom? Use noob words, I don't know much from kernels :D
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
u can change it but the steps are more involved and can only be done on linux... search around the forums... but the generic steps wont work for the kernel.elf format ;)

@ doom

is there a way to make the "charging led " that stays on red while charging go of ...like the arc ore the x10 and flashes, and flash green when charged?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
best to flash stock FTF OR only stock system.sin and then flash my kernel

not kernel related... it ROM framework related
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] poo-tang:
If want doom will give this app you talk about ago. Hate the new system, mass storage was better. Takes my pc long time at mo to to even open to transfer.

Ps you had any look into the OTG In recovery. Would be nice to be able to flash straight from external too if we're able to mount. Thanks:-)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
not yet... i am resolving one issue at a time ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] marcjuh:
hey

ive been fiddling about the settings OC with the new kernel...

used sytem monitor to check what the apps did when setting the frequencies...

it looks like when i want to use smartass /v2 it does actually uses 1 core full time at max.. and when overloading the 1 core it only sets in the other core. ut just shortly.and then shuts down the core again..

when setting the 'on demand ore interactif it tents to use the 2 core more frequently so it doesnt get overheated.

so i set it with nofrill, first smartassv2 , cfq. startes the monitor app and it shows only 1 core actief full max all the time..

when setting om demand cfq it uses more 2 core and both work at lower frequency..:D

further more after playing all day with a lot of apps using them 1 at the time with freecing them when using the other my phone became verry laggisch..(seems to me all the apps safe their settings somewere that interfere's with later settings...after a full reset. with no apps the phone flys again with the stocj Dkernel settings ( wich i presoom are on demand ...so i nou only set the nofrill app after a full reset at smartassv2 and monitor gauge-app and see again mainly 1 core is beeing used...

back to on demand with cfq and the monitor-app shows more and more use of bothe corres and less eated phone :D

just wanted to share this. sorry if it doesnt belong here..

beceause you said that the smartass and v2 have their own gpu setting within i wanted to use them ....but with 2 cores plse ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
the governors have been ported from the "Bricked Kernel" sources of HTC Sensation which also has same hardware as Xperia S...

so the governors are able to properly handle both cores...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sminki:
From the kernel thread...

If that ultimately means we'll be able to use MSC instead of MTP, I'll test the hell out of it! :D MTP is painful on my Linux boxes. (so basically i'm using an ftp server on the device instead!)

Hi~DooMLoRD

I've seen [ features ]:

[v01 onwards] DISABLED CIFS support in kernel (was causing battery drain on Xperia 2011 devices)

I'm already flash DooMKernel on my devices

May CIFS support cause battery drain on XPERIA S ?

can I manual enable the cifs support for my device

I'm usually mount PC's share folder for Video source

Sorry about my English , Thank you :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] K900:
@DooM I built cifs for myself ( from your source) , didn't seem to drain battery, at least not noticeably. Also you should include the Veno module in your next build, gives really nice speedup
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
dont worry i am preparing an update which will keep a cap on default cpu freq to 1512-384 Mhz

its a binary in the system, i dont remember which file it is.... may be wpa_supplicant?

CIFS was causing MASSIVE battery drain on Xperia 2011 devices, we were doing bug-hunting for almost 3 months and finally found that CIFS was the culprit... i may create a separate CIFS module if required which u can activate manually...

hmmm interesting about the TCP Veno module... lets see may be in v02 kernel ;)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dynamic503:

Since I'm not allowed to post in the developer thread, I hope I found the right place here.

I've read several times DoomLord's instructions to flash his kernel, but for me one question is still left:

To go directly to DoomKernel v03 from the stock kernel, what do I have to do?

Extract the update zip and flash the kernel.elf?

Or do I have to flash the v01 and the upgrade to v03 via recovery?

TIA for any help.

Hi DooM,

I've tried all of your kernels available for SXS. Version 01 and 01a works fine for me. Version 02 and 03 causes boot loop on my device. System starts, I can see lock screen by some reason wallpaper changes and after I get boot loop.

I really like your work, may be I can help some how? Some tests etc?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] dmh1:
Who installed kernel v3 have problem boot loop:confused:
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] denkly:
Me :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] togetheric:
I have bootloop to, my FW is HK.73 flash v01a all is OK

1. flash a clean HK.73 FTF

2. flash v01a kernel

3. flash v01 wifi modules

but when I reboot an flash v02kernel, it bootloop, I hadn't install any apk

so I flash back the v01a kernel in fastboot, it still bootloop

I can enter the recovery, so I flash the v01 wifi modules, It's OK

so I think that the issue will be wifi modules

At last... I'm a Chinese, my English is bad...

I hope that you can understand what I say...
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shmoejoe:
I actually was about to post that exact same question you replied to (yay for reading xD) but the recovery is no longer listed in the recovery thread. The link has been removed and its listed as being part of the new Kernel. So now that can't be done.

I find it all good and fine, but I find moving from v.01 and moving my way up a bit backwards when it could (With Doomrecovery) be flashed directly. This would also leave less room for errors (as I am seeing already, the ones moving backwards to go forwards, are having issues)

So i suppose my question is:

Doom, could you please repost recovery, and make everyone who don't have your beautiful DoomKernel from V.01 lives a bit easier?

Thanks in advance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:
From v02 kernels onwards u can do this:

Open the update.zip browse to kernel folder, extract the kernel.elf and then flash it using fastboot... Now u will be on that kernel... But will still need to flash that update.zip to get latest compatible WiFi modules
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] shmoejoe:
Ah, didn't think of that, I will go do that now then :)

Could you update your recovery thread with that info, I'm probably not the first one who got confused thinking they had to move backwards.

Thanks for the quick reply! :)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] sessel:
Hy, do you have the "sonyericsson wakeup" file uninstall?

If you read his post well than you should noticed that he did a clean firmware flashing,means nothing removed.

Yes but i install like this v1a and alk good. After in v2 i've issue (phone don't wake).And i remeber i uninstall this file for batery life.perhaps some user make the same thing and did reinstall this.or perhaps it's another problem for him, but for me it's good now.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] togetheric:
I had flashed v03 kernel too, but still boot loop

so I wipe dalvik, restore the v01a boot.img in recovery and flashed the v01 wifi modules

try this

and set the max clk=1080MHz

flashed v03 kernel again, is OK!

select CPU governor as"smartV2"and"set on boot", set the max clk=1512MHz

reboot the device, OK

connect the wifi and reboot, boot loop

so I perhaps the issue is the wifi modules

But now after some time the Device turns off and reboots and then it takes less time when it does the same again, till i have to turn it off or it shuts down immediately after startup.

Thought would post Here as testing going on. V3a running fine and having no problems so far will test all the governors out over the next few days and post 1 post results.

P.s. After you are done with small bug's Do you ever plan to make a Kernal updater app like (Franco) as we can now OTA flash everything no need for fastboot. Subscribing to a thread with noobs with issues is a pain. Would not mined paying for the service/App if could be done.

Call it Doom updater
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] DooMLoRD:

let the kernel sources be stable and all bugs ironed out... then i will get to work on such an app...

About SkyD... I'm sad to hear that... I wish you could make the kernel for it... I think someone else will port the ROM itself to it later... Well, I wish you get some time to work on the kernel to us... I'll be one of the beta testers :)
