isn't it too "plain"? i mean just black and white. i really like colorful bootlogo when saw singh_dd93's bootlogo for pa kernel. just wonderful.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
if u can make colorful n animated kernel logo like nAa's x8 kernel that would be awesome
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
does bootlogo really can be animated? afaik the .rle format for it is old, even before animated .gif available so i doubt it can be animated.

or did u confused it with bootanimation?

give link to the said kernel and i can just look into its ramdisk if it really is animated bootlogo.

I used the X8 and his kernel.all of his kernels are animated.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
there u go, im not confused with boot animation
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
can't unpack his kernel, its in ftf format, i unpack the ftf and got kernel.sin.

the .sin format gives me headache.

sin2img tool doesn't even work with it. how does he even compile kernel with .sin format.

if anyone can unpack ramdisk from it, or ask naa himself how did he make animated .rle for bootlogo that would be awesome.

This is the best version of mesa(2.7)...the flashable zip file is working now with TWRP...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
i notice high battery drain on v2.7 about 7-10% an hour. while it only round 2% an hour with older version. both with data on
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rzepa90:
Yep, I have same problem. Battery drain since 2.6. Also I have noticed problem with unexpected sd card removed and wifi/data can be used only once - data is working only after reboot and wifi only after deleting wlanfixed and triple reboots...so I was forced to fall back to mesa 2.4. I'm using FXP CM10 on mango.

Yes... https://sites.google.com/site/smultextcm/faq
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
Theres also an update-script in the zip. Did u replace just the update-binary or also the update-script?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Till-Kruspe:
I replace both...with just the update-binary I get status 7 error...so it need the update-script too...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] stanlin salu:
Bt updater scripts wil vary according to flashable zips, like updater script for a ROM updation???
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
really? that is wierd. the update-script in the fix is for anykernel, and if we replace lets say update-script in rom zip with it, will the rom be flashed with the anykernel script?

So cool & nice.... ;)

---------- Post added at 11:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

Am not confused.... is TWRP recovery working perfectly now & flashing too works?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
little confuse here, so we have to replace the update-script with ur attachment n edit the updater-script with these? to the flashable cwm zip
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
ok then, compiled and uploaded v2.8 ics for all four devices. nothing change on kernel side, just is ramdisk. changed bootlogo and twrp default theme.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Jeik:
Thank god you changed the bootlogo ;)

Now I will use this kernel.And can you please try to permanatly fix the anoying wifi bug.i hate when wifi wont turn on sometimes,even tho I did what you wrote about wifi.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
i wonder which kernel logo u r using, gonna try it later today
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Till-Kruspe:
Yes...it work for me...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
this one

Btw do tell if anyone found graphic glitch, button missplace etc with new twrp theme.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] andrasandhi:
downloading now ...... :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
nice it work for me, but i wonder if aroma installer work too

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] whalesplaho:
After flashing tha kernel, to flash mods what should be done?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] happyBOY78:
I use ROMs with Aroma installer.

When i try install it in new CWM, it is unreadable and unusable (see picture).

In previous CWM it was displayed on whole screen, now it is only on half screen.

Is possible to solve this "bug" ? Maybe "switch off" text on the bottom of screen....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
its a known problem in cwm 6, and now in twrp too.

btw theres a bug in twrp new theme, missing copy file and copy folder button in filemanager. download fixed theme here
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dhallbhoo:
looking for JB? :cyclops:

me too...:fingers-crossed:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
anyway, i could have an idea on howto fix the aroma screen size cut in half. if anyone could flash latest fxp's cm9 or cm10 kernel, i mean kernel got from fxp's rom, which got the cwm 6, then try to flash any aroma rom with it, ics rom will do too. u dont need to actually flash the aroma rom, just navigate in aroma selection menu and stop before actually flashing. if the screen is uncut then i can fix my kernel. but if the screen still cut in half too then theres nothing i can do.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nigoc:
It seems that offline charger doesn't work.

MESA v2.8 ICS
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
yes, bug introduce by the two stage boot.

anyway its not that troublesome, it just reboot into rom when plugged in, not continuous reboot like in some kernel.

anyway its in my todo list to fix :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lhcrulz:
offline charging and WiFi both are not working in v2.8
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
offline charging already mention above, about WIFI please read 1st post, im using this kernel both of them ICS n JB, xperia mini n active. if the 1st post method doesnt work that mean u have problem with ur rom like i did once.

n btw about battery drain i post earlier, i thought it cause by low signal reception n now im home the battery drain normal as usual around 2% an hour with data on
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
updated ics kernel to v2.9 and uploaded for all four devices.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BlackArtsInc:
Thank you! I must say that you produce more versions that I can flash at the moment! :eek:

Great support! :) :good:

I just flashed the latest and I have some questions!

Whats ZEN IO Scheduler? I cant find a lot on google... :-/

Also,I m just curious.Whats the biggest kernel filesize our xPERIAs allow?

Could you explain what these do in plain english maybe?

Last but not least,whats your IO and Governor fav for less battery drain?

I m using NOOP/SmartassV2 and so far I m quite content...

I value your opinion almost more than anyone else in XDA.Keep it up! :)

N.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
if its worth updating i'll compile and update nevertheless. dual recovery is worth the update, at least no one would whine about zip file cant be flashed with twrp as they also got cwm as choice.

btw zen io scheduler is some mashup hybrid of vr and sio. not really good when i test it, sio is better.

source

i'm using 134mhz min, 1.2ghz max, smartassv2, sio. i also undervolted cpu slightly. also using swap2cache.

for the changelog #6, about the seeder entropy generator u can read here. but i'm not using daemon method like in the thread, it run in background and consume battery. i just use another method, but with same/similar effect as the original seeder entropy.

for changelog #7 and #8 u shouldn't concern about it, probably hard for u to understand, and hard for me to explain too. i just add it for the sake of mentioning what i change.

biggest kernel filesize would be 12-13mb. i once compile kernel, uncompressed, and it almost reach 13mb. it failed to flash with fastboot showing error of not enough space in boot partition. another kernel i compile almost reached 12mb but it flashed just fine. so conclusion is, between 12-13mb is the limit.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] heryts:
i found that, xkernel ics version, which use cwm6 doesnt have bug with aroma installer, it show full screen installer, not half screen
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] kopralbemz:
what diferent 2.8 and 2.9?

coz i flash 2.8 yesterday and now 2.9 update

btw thanks and whatever just flashing 2.9 now :silly:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
agreed, beside, MESA kernel already tweaked n optimize

for me these feature is a must have on stock ics kernel, thats why when i come back to ics MESA kernel is my choice

4- implement new sysinit which only invoke the script in init.d once booting is finish, not like the old implementation which invoke the script while still booting and can give problem to most a2sd script.

1- update sio.

bro just wanna confirm this whether there is any prob with offline charging?? great kernel bro keep up the good work
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
its not working properly, just boot into rom directly. but not continuous rebooting, nothing to be concern about. i'll try to fix it later.

btw anyone can help me a little bit here? i need latest cm9 kernel, no matter from lww, mini, minipro or active, just latest cm9 kernel from nightly or fxp weekly build.

upload somewhere and pm me link. i need it for my next project, universal kernel for all rom :cowboy:

Got the same kernel booting and working on miui ics and cm9, but its not smart enough to decide which ramdisk to boot on its own, and marker file I add to help it decide doesn't load either. Really troublesome.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dexter1123:

Also is this kernel for cm-10-20130107-NIGHTLY-coconut ??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] antr34:
i hope u find a way out soon, cause it would be great stock n cm in 1 kernel, or at least u can add a menu which rom will be booted, i dont know how but i think that can be done
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] andrasandhi:
oh, i have just one thing that i worried about.

SOMETIMES, after succesfully reboot to main screen, my screen become blank (only black screen with my widget and icons), then shows notif like 'com.android.phone not responding, google play not respong and others'.

i must choose 'wait' or 'ok', so i press OK then my phone become normal.

but its ok, i just wanna say that issues.

all others, work flawless :thumbup:

thanks.

all cpu setting (governor, min-max, i/o, some sysctl kernel) setup via System Tuner Pro.

EDIT : forget to say this. Reboot become more faster than previous, thats nice :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mdfzhi:
hi, i've uploaded my latest highly experimental/alpha kernel for lww,

its a hybrid, should work with stock, stock based, cm9, cm9 based, cm10 and cm10 based rom. yes u read it right, its a hybrid kernel for all ics/jb rom :D :D :D

again, this is highly experimental/alpha. expect some bugs or things broken. create nandroid backup before flashing!

i've tested with pa jb and its booting fine. wifi, camera, sound, touchscreen among things that i tested.

automatic script to inject wifi modules in ramdisk is broken so u need to launch it manually. first delete /system/wlanfixed if any, open terminal and do

su
/sbin/mesa.sh

then reboot twice.

also the the kernel wasn't smart enough to determine which ramdisk to load on its own so i've created marker file to help it. in the archive contain three flashable zip, one for stock/stock based rom, one for cm9/cm9 based rom, and one for cm10/cm10 based rom. flash it based on your rom. should be flashable via twrp or cwm included in kernel.

then u would ask, what happen if u didn't flash any of the three marker file? kernel would fail to boot, it'll light up red led with screen backlight turned off.
