Now enter recovery (press volume down for CWR or volume up for TWRP), choose "install zip from sd card" (in CWR, menu button is to go down in menus, home button is to select item), choose gb rom (and only gb rom, because this kernel is for gb) you want to use and press home button. When rom is finished flashing, choose "reboot system". If it ask to you to "fix root" or "fix revovery", just choose "no"
[Xperia Play Android Development] jhonecide:
able to enter lupus GB cwm R but no menus show up.. it's getting harder and harder..:crying:
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
After erasing your system and data, did you flash any other kernel?

Fully working steps, that is 100% working:

1.flash ftf with unlocked vendor partition (.62 or .79)

2.flash lupus gb kernel

3.erase system and data from fastboot

4.enter recovery and flash your rom
[Xperia Play Android Development] jhonecide:
my play is back... thanks dude..

but i wonder my internal storage over 600mb, is it normal?? lupus kernel and auroraplay v1.1.0
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
Yeah, that's normal :p

That's why you needed to flash .62 or .79 firmware first. So kernel can make different partition layout. It can't be done on .42 firmware

Keep in mind if you ever flash other kernel that have stock partition layout(doomlord or stock from ftf), you'll need to wipe system and userdata from fastboot mode again, or you'll stuck on kernel logo and you can't enter recovery.
[Xperia Play Android Development] jhonecide:
Big thanks... :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] sheraro:
so I thanked you for all your last posts Bakisha because some people don't know how to !!!

Hi guys, today I try The Dark Night Rises, and I notice some minor problems with controls. The touchpads sometimes did not respond, sometimes it was the left (movement), but mostly was the right (camera). Not a big issue, but not quite nice either...

Someone knows if this is a kernel problem, a ROM problem, or a game problem?
[Xperia Play Android Development] niklasson:
So how do I even start my phone with this flashed on to it? I get a Lupus screen, and nothing else.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CriGiu:
Please, start reading the OP or even the previous pages...

If you come from a kernel with a different partition layout you will never boot into the system, so, after you've flashed the kernel, run the following cmd via fastboot

fastboot erase system && fastboot erase userdata
[Xperia Play Android Development] niklasson:
Tried to understand the OP, did not. Not going to read 100 pages of comments to get somewhere.

Using Lupus only because of the "[GUIDE] The Ace Xperia Play Setup 1.2! ~ Dalvik Tunning!"-guide but oh well.

Guess I have a bricked phone now. yay.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CriGiu:
Trust me man, it's impossible to brick the phone via fastboot.

Anyway, did you try what I've suggested you to do? Just wipe your userdata and system through fastboot, and everything will be fine.
[Xperia Play Android Development] niklasson:
Doesn't seem to work atm but I will keep trying :)

Problem solved by:

Changing firmware to .79 instead of .52v3 (xperia play)

Flashing the ROM, adding Lupus, erase user/system data, reinstall the system-part of the rom

However it seems impossible to root or install apps that aren't on the market now (Unknown sources is allowed. It simply won't install recovery apps for me. Some old video player beta from 2010 works fine though :S)
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
is there any fixed version of lupus v12 480p?
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Me too, i'm really interested for a fixed 480p fixed version, because it's really bad waste 20MB of ram with a useless feature...
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Can u tell me the exact problems again with the 480p kernel. I charged up my PLAY last nite so I could fix it today(maybe if I get time). I might also Do a Iight version with fewer governors and IO schedulers but with slightly higher OC. Then more then likely it will be final.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Fat_boy555:
Any update coming on lupus jb v13?
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
I really don't know I'll have to see what time I have. Ill probably be getting the xperia Z1 in 2weeks so I'll be completely dropping the 2011 line by then.
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Okay, the problem is, with 480p version, when you start recording the video, the app freeze, and then the phone comes to a bootlop, all this with all 480p kernel's done by you, with ICS&GB, LuPuS GB, etc... A long time ago, you tell me the problem is that the videorecording in 480p needs some more ram. Hope it can help to bring us a really perfect kernel. Thanks for your hard work and the interest you sample to us.
[Xperia Play Android Development] xpinux:
and i think also with 480p kernel youtube isnt playing i think at least at v10 that i tested 2 months ago that effect was there.also i wanted to say if you can wedgess make that final update the best
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
I have expert this as well. I ended up flashing the 720 kernel bit would prefer the 480 kernel for the additional ram.

Either way... still happy for your support wedgess and I appreciate what you have done for the PLAY.
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Ye Its what i'm thinking is the problem, I might have to eat away at some of the RAM untill its stable, I'm running Gin2JB rite now with 480p kernel, so will check it out tonight.

Expect some sort of test tonight/ish for 480p kernel, ill add UKSM sleep while screen off if I didnt add it last time. I wanted to bring in something like Stweaks or Stweaks it self so u all have some sort of GUI to mess around with instead of using LuPuS Script (but it would also stay there). Maybe this won't be the final final update lol we will see how much time I get in the next couple of weeks.

I know u guys do which is one of the reasons why I just CAN'T leave this forum, out of all the forums on XDA, PLAY is one of the best.:victory:
[Xperia Play Android Development] Nuck-TH:
Thanks for everything ya done, man! (thx button pressed through)

What about cm7?

If any - doom made cm kernel someday, maybe its ramdisk will help ya...

If you need tester - i can do it, pm if any...
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Released LuPuS 480p v12.5

- fixed video playback??

- Added UKSM sleep while screen off option ((in LuPuS Menu) saves Battery)
[Xperia Play Android Development] igor_anta:
You had a fantastic run here though :) It's expected that the more tech savvy people will move on to better hardware eventually, you still beying here is pretty amazing to be honest.

I'm still holding on for a new JB kernel with 600mb data partition, alas one can only hope :) Thanks for the great work, cheers!
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Hi, i something is wrong, it's 720p version i think, because total ram is 367 MB like 720p version, 480p has 394MB. Something is wrong here :P

And yeah videoplayback is fixed... But i think is 720p... :P

Thank you a lot!
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Lol yes looks like I did. Sorry bout that. I changed the code in the file but never changed the setting in my kitchen, so it switched back to 720p. I'll upload one later when I'm home.

Awesome work Wedgess, but just a quick question, is this based on ur 12.5 quick fix version with the entropy removed? :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Pizza_user:
i downloaded 480p version and i got as free ram as 720p version it's strange :s like 340 mb of free ram if i good remember
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Ok now fixed 480p version is released, link is in OP
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Yeah, it's fixed the videoplayback, but 384 MB of total RAM... Is there anyway to have at least 390? Thanks for the hard work.
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Nope its either have videplayback working or not. Nothing I can do about that. It was simply running out of PMEM, hence the reason it was not working before.
[Xperia Play Android Development] SemBoyHehe:

I don't quite understand here ! if 480 and 720 has same amount of ram what's the benefits of flashing 480 ??

[Xperia Play Android Development] Techman666:
Guys please help !

I just flashed this kernel with Xperia flasher - everything went as usual, but now my phone is stuck in a loop.

It shows the lupus logo, vibrates twice and reboots, if I press vol up or down i get in to CWM/TWRP - and it stays there with a small lupus logo.

Please help!!
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Via fastboot enter the commands:

fastboot erase userdata
fastboot erase system

You must wipe userdata and system if coming from a STOCK partirion kernel, Otherwise u will be stuck in a loop.
[Xperia Play Android Development] Techman666:
Got it ! It works :D

Thank You very much for a quick response :)

Edit:

Got happy a bit too early - now when i try to flash from zip file it tells me that it can not mount the sd card :(

Edit 2:

Found a solution :)

[Xperia Play Android Development] sewer56lol:

BTW congrats wedgess, sorry for off topic.
[Xperia Play Android Development] XDM inc:
you once said if the phone takes too long to boot on logo i could move something somewhere but what was that again?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Toasty Clown:
Wasn't it "Move certain/all files from init.d to boot.d"?
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Thanks guys, now back on topic :silly:

Exactly what Toasty Clown posted:

No need to move them all just the ones you are "suspicious" of that are taking the device longer the run on init. I know it takes a bit to boot. The main reason for this however is because of dual recoveries, To save space instead of having all busybox links twice the kernel generates all links on boot, which will take a bit to run along with everything else within the ramdisk. It bothered me when I was testing because I was constantly flashing/booting. But then when I had the final product (which u guys got) I didn't need to constantly reboot so left it as it was, otherwise i'd have to remove some functionality. I don't see the point in removing anything because the reason I created this kernel in the first place was to give users a vast amount of options, which I feel I have done. Boot time is the only downside to this kernel, but how many times does the average person reboot their device daily. Boot.d may not make a huge amount of difference but the reason behind it is was to decrease boot time somewhat. Basically init.d runs the scripts on init, while boot.d runs the scripts on boot(incase you didn't know).
[Xperia Play Android Development] XDM inc:
oh ok no big deal, i usually only power off before i go to bed and power on when i wake, because of good battery i only reboot at most once or twice a day & usually if my XLoud drops out to the point where my "Headphone Trick" can't fix it.
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:

12.5 version gonna have a 720p version?

Possible kernel

Hi guys right now im using the lupusv12 gb kernel, on my stock gb kernel for the xperia play. The kernel is practicly perfect, becuase its given me like a massive internel memory boost (400mb extra). This kernel can overclock to 1.6ghz which is fine but i like the idea of trying to overclock higher, but i still want the perks of the memory boost that this kernel had, on top of which the battery life is amazing on this kernel to btw. I want a kernel which can overclock to 1.8 -2ghz, has the extra 400mb internel storage and has the great battery life the lupusv12 gb kernel has. My question after all this waffle is, that is there a kernel like this? If there is can you link me to it or at least tell me it?
[Xperia Play Android Development] lawong:
its dangerous to oc that high.
[Xperia Play Android Development] korrectmethod:
You could try the extreme kernel with a stock rom. Its all here in the development section.
[Xperia Play Android Development] lincruste:
Hi,

Forst of all, thanks for this work.

I have a question about a recurrent message I keep finding in debug logs after a fresh install (AtomicGB + LuPuSv12-GB):

E/iddd-util( 853): Failed to get secure clock: result 0, opResult 8

This happens all the time, appears in red in aLogcat, and I found no documentation about this.

Does anyone have a clue of what to do ?

Regards.

Perfect!

But may i ask, i cannot use my front camera, (front camera sometime "cannot connect") and plus, when playing HD video, the sound/music is not sync with video, sound/music is perfect but video is laggy,

Or it is only happen on me? Anyone?
[Xperia Play Android Development] McXeno:
My front camera doesn't work either , it worked some months ago when I bought the phone ,but after I started putting kernels and roms on it , it didn't work anymore :( , I got the phone with a lupus kernel and gin2jb rom , and it was working , don't know what it has now :( I have lupus and gin2jb 2.5.2

any update coming?
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:

[MENTION=4609488]wedgess[/MENTION] is there a 720p versionn of LupusGB v12.5??? what is the defrence between the 720p and 480p version besides the resolution the camera takes pictures???
[Xperia Play Android Development] ozzmanj1:
The 480 gives you some small amount of additional RAM. However when loading Youtube or virtually any Gameloft game the opening video(s) fail to load.

720 gives you the added benefit of 720p video recording, Youtube and GL videos work. I have always gone for the 480, but after some time I went to 720. The amount of ram you lose from 480-720 is minimal. For me its now 720 all the way. But try both and see for yourself.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ch3mn3y:

And it shouldnt be a problem. I used g2kk for long time and everything was fine with ext partition and 150+ apps (without prevent running xposed module, which could make performance better)

Maybe try other roms or move to turbo kernel or doomkernel

im on stock .58 with supercharger enabled and updated busy box..is there anything which is blocking wifi? i cant seem to get the wifi workingg even after flashing wifi modules..but when i flashed doom lord's kernel along with the modules it works

but on this kernel it doesnt work even after flashing modules..i really love this kernel:((
[Xperia Play Android Development] sesamo:
Make sure you flash the modules for the version of kernel you are using. I got stuck with WiFi not working then I realised that I was on rereleased version and I was flashing modules for v2.
[Xperia Play Android Development] sdojoin:
So which is the gov/io combo?? Darkside or superbad and sio??
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
No nothing will be blocking it- clear all the other lupus-wifi.zips you have on your sd-card so you know your not downloading the wrong one and then check that the MD5 matches the one i put in the OP :) It 100% works

I've switched back to ICS last night as that's the one with my main back-up, but will be switching back to check and try change recovery later. When I was on GB though and using superbad/darkside they seemed nice and fast for me, they might not be as battery friendly as smartassv2, but if you want battery and still preforms great then use virtuous. ( 1/3 more battery then stock kernel.....) so they say :) and ye SIO has to be one of my favourites although different governors and IO-Schedulers perform better together, you just gotta find your prefered choice. There's a great guide with nearly everything you need to know about governors but I have an extra 6 that aren't mentioned here but it's a great thread by DROIDPHILE check it out here, obviously anything mentioned about dual-core is'nt good for us as its for sgs2 ..

Oh ye and Re-Release is the latest if i sort out recovery later i'll just name it v3 in the OP so not to confuse anyone ;) but will leave the current version up for people who want multi-recoveries & no aroma FM, that's if I don't get p**sed off with not getting it to work a few times first ;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] chiujiewei:
yea sesamo was right..actually i downloaded the rerelease version along with its module which didnt work for me..then i look for the post again then realise i was on rereleased..you shud remove the old one to avoid confusion..its working now :))anyways thankyou for ur great kernel and all the devs supporting :)

Overheating

Install the kernel (GB v2 Re-Released) .. and when to charge my phone (no use) to finish loading noticed that warms more than usual. eh not miss undervolting. not overclock or anything like that.

and also when playing hotter than normal. not as much as when loaded. but when I was hotter than the stock kernel & doomkernel

Anyone else feel the same or just me?

I have The Governor Smartass v2 and sio schedules (134 min - 1017 max)

What could be the reason???? : Confused:
[Xperia Play Android Development] Gilberto_BR:
Someone else reported that after some time in use the phone starts to lag, that happened to me too, and i noticed that using virtuous governor the cpu goes back to 800mhz for no reason, so im back to smartassv2 and the problem is solved.
[Xperia Play Android Development] sdojoin:
Same. The superbad is like a customize ondemand/smartass. Hmm.. Wonder y u think its a problem. Its typical for a new kernel to hav that kind of behavior. Mybe thats y its not that popular.:p

Edit; Can tell me what the default gov/io for this kernel??
