Great! It works on ICS Generic_Nordic .431, So I must say thank you for your work.

Now I only have to flash superuser and I am happy puppy again. :)

pretty stable kernel, seems to be an issue with the xcharge app, when you choose reboot into recovery, all command lines come on the screen in front of recovery, but it hasn't actually rebooted the phone yet.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Coolgoly:
When phone is booting just press vol- while blu led\keys led are lighting to get recovery.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Dark Fable:
Stock logo looks sexy. Kernel devs for other phones dont put their own logo.

I loved this kernel, but its giving me a huge battery drain and random reboots even at 1.4 Ghz. :(

I'm on Arconium 4.0.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
Any chance we could get 2 way call recording patch in this kernal?

Been using it for a while with Arconium 4.0. Runs great, battery lasts 1.5 days with normal usage, and wifi permanently on, so i know it could last even longer :-D.

Great Work!

Hey...

Could you include how to enable zram on your first post

Or make a flashable zip please....

It could be really helpful
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vr5411:
tkymgr,

Is Font corruption problem solved?

Since it's showing up with your kernel on stock Rom and fxp on cm9 I assume it's coming from linaro patches.

I had problem on 0.5 beta also.

Thanks for sharing your work.

I'm just reporting to make kernel better, as it's super smooth.

But font corruption is killing me.

(didn't know for correct term until saw explanation in cm9 thread)

[Xperia Arc Android Development] vr5411:
team KTG,

May I kindly ask you to comment above post.

Also, is it ok to use:

00zram

97uncap

98tweaks

99zipalign

from KTG-WLAN-TWEAKS.zip from inside ICS-KERNEL-05.7z?

Please, answer?!

All the best.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tkymgr:
I'm sorry for late reply　;)

To enable zram, put file"00zram" in "/system/etc/init.d/".

when u put file"97uncap" similarly, faster rendering, but more battery drain :(

I think it is beneficial file"98tweaks"and "99zipalign" :)

cheers,
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jhnjrdan:
Can I make a request? If yes, then add the 0% battery patch, I believe me and other users with this problem are willing to use your kernel!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
tkymgr

Great Kernel, i tested your latest 1.3, and is very very smooth, are you taking suggestions for additions into the kernel? Just wandering if you would consider adding 2 way call recording support, and support for ext files systems. Both are very handy.

Currently using Arconium 4.0 with sirkays Kernel, as it supports the above, but would rather use KTG for complete smoothness and features.

If not, can you provide sources for your latest Kernel, im new to the deeper workings of this, but would like to attempt at adding these features into the kernel using.

Many thanks.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Sekhen:
Hi,

TY for your works, lot of nice stuffs :fingers-crossed:.

Fews points :

I don't understand this point.

By defaut, UI use software rendering... if u want to force hardware rendering, u have to go in [setting] -> [developer options] & activate "force GPU rendering"...

Software rendering doesn't works with heavy 3D games.

& for videos, most of players use software rendering when hardware rendering give far better quality & FPS. The only player i have tested which support my Adreno 205 video hardware decoding is the excellent BS Player with his ARM V7 VFP codecs...

So i don't really understand where u want to enable software rendering...

That's pretty true. The main reason for me is that UI reload widgets & update them (facebook, mails...) when i don't have display them for a while.

But u have lot of software which fix it.

Personally i use the UI optimisation in the [kernel tweaks] of my memory manager : autokiller memory optimiser pro...

It works fine...

Ramdisk with a class 10 SD, ok... 25% lower than my 333 Mhz ram (in writing & reading) in my tests...

But on-the-fly ram compression ? have u benched this working ? logically, it should be catastrophic...

Regards.

Sekhen.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] amfirbek92:
i've just updated to ics on my friend arc..i flashed this kernel..it seems running smoothly till now..but i missed 2 things here since GB:

autorooting (it's ok i flashed bin4ry root.zip in cwm)

ext4 support : hope u will add this in the next release

appreciate ur work

thank you
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Sekhen:
zram have been created when PC's had low ram.

The goal is to launch programs which need more ram than you physically have by on-the-fly compression : the program launch VERY slowly but it launch & doesn't without zram.

If u have enough ram to launch your programs, zram will crash your perfs.

if your x86/x64 processors are not enough powerful to compress ram in real time without crashing perfs, imagine your Arm processor...

You're on a Ux kernel, create swap partition or a swap file, far better.

No Compression, Proc not monopolised : the kernel assume the swap... & if your SD-card have good reading/writing/transfer speed, perfs are not that bad...

Regards.

Sekhen.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Hi KTG Team, I wanted to ask if this kernel will work fine with AOKP Team, or only with ICS Stock based ROMs. If not, are you planning any update/different version that will do the trick?

Thank you.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vr5411:
Do you still need this? I have them.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vr5411:
Quiz?

Folks, what's your combination of governor and I/O scheduler on this rom?

I'm using ondemand and deadline.

Any combination of smartass and bfq/cfq don't provide good results.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] elroysk:
i use smartassV2 and BFQ and results is good.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] miqz:
okay i'm a begginer on this..so how i can use swap partition..is it swap partition same with sd-ext partition ?

many thanks for your help

already got it

thanks mate
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Sekhen:
Hi Miqz,

Usually Ux use a "Linux Swap" partition format for swap file that u, ideally put at start of the disk.

U can do it with from your PC with partition magic, minitool partition wizard...

U need that your Kernel support swapping to use it (stocks doesn't).

U have a tutorial here :

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/SD_card_partitioning

The other way is to use a swap file which will be created on your main partition with some softs like swapper or others...

But Ux have been created to works with a swap partition & not a swap file (like windows exchange file...) & i think swap partition perfs are better...

Data swapping on swap partition is done by the kernel & not by a software...

In every case, unlike zram which slow perfs when u start to use your ram, swapping will down perfs only when your ram will bein insufficient..

I hope it will help u.

Sekhen.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] spida_singh:
Great work, 2 way recording is working fine, i noticed SIO is missing now, and it is also missing from 1.3. Was this intentional? Can SIO be added back?

battery life is good, deep sleeps with no issues, used about 2% per hour so far. Last thing, is swap ability included in the kernel? Can this be enabled as well if not?

EXT4 works fine as well. By far the best Kernel so far, using Arconium 4.0, with some Xperia S UI.

Regards
[Xperia Arc Android Development] soumya_digi:
What about the /system/vendor issue?? Is it fixed yet??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vr5411:
Just to let everyone know that since v1.3 there is no font corruption!

@Goro I was free to say so in FXP thread as they have problems with it.

Also 1.41 is rock solid so far. A2SD is running just fine with it.

Looking forward to hearing more from this team.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rec71:
I want to try this on Arconium. I have an arc S so will I need to mess with max CPU settings?

//

this the best kernel so far, as far as smoothness and usability is concerned. maybe the developer can use some of arcknight kernel's tweaks (like lowering screen's voltage, having a smaller frequency table, lowering wifi power and others). whatever you do - please don't make it lesser smooth, even if that happens at the cost of battery life. i'd rather have a smooth fone that have 50 percent more battery life.

thanks for making this awesome kernel.

p.s. - i am on miuiandroid v4 2.7.6 and have software rendering completely disabled via the egl config file --- i don't have any problems with lags whatsoever,, i wonder if the way it it right now is slow, what it'd be like with forced software rendering via the framework. and oh, btw - wil the modded version stock framework work with my miui?

my battery consumption is around 4% per hour. Anyway this is a great kernel!! Thanks a lot
[Xperia Arc Android Development] muell_matto:
Hi again.

I am running official MiuiV4 2.7.27. When i connect my phone to my computer i can only use the media transfer protocol for file exchange. USB mass storage mode is really not working, which is sad, because mtp is slow as hell.

If it is working for you all, then it might be a rom related problem. But strangely other kernels provide an mass stragage mode.
