sorry I'm a noob here :( but can someone please tell me the exact steps to 'installing' this kernel?

i have a rooted but locked bootloader, is it still possible to do this?

Thank You!!

Hi, I have my custom ROM to try this. does it work ?

can you make work clear bass on your kernel ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Frenchdroid:
Looking for a bit of help here - I have been using the kernel and wi-fi libs OK up until v7 and now I can't get wi-fi to work.

I'm assuming its because I need to free up some space in /system but I've deleted lods of stuff there (apps) but it still doesn't work after I re-flash it.

So, is it possible that I need to delete any of the OLD stuff from earlier versions of the wi-fi libs that got flashed ???

Or, can anyone tell me anything safe to delete in /system that frees up a lot of space ??

Thanks in advance

Try using a root FM to delete the wifi files. I can make a zip to delete them if u want but im lazy and quicker if u done it urself then flash them

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Frenchdroid:
Ahh, OK - I've been using ES File Manager with root to delete from /system but I didn't realise what else I could delete that would make a difference. Are you saying that there are some wi-fi files somewhere in /system that I can delete because they will be replaced by your wi-fi .zip ???

Thanks in advance for any tips.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] sinkster:
flash modules after flashing the rom.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Frenchdroid:
Yeah - if thats in response to the problem we are talking about with wi-fi not working, thanks for the advice but thats not the problem. I think we are talking about not enough space in /system, as has been mentioned.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] scuba4436:
Hi,

check the follwing directories/files with a file manager:

----system

----lib

----modules

----compat

| compat.ko

| compat_firmware_class.ko

|

----drivers

| ----net

| ----wireless

| ----wl12xx

| wl12xx.ko

| wl12xx_sdio.ko

|

----net

----mac80211

| mac80211.ko

|

----wireless

cfg80211.ko

Delete the files (directories not needed) with su-rights. Enter CWM and reflash the wifi-drivers. Wifi should work. If not, check if you have downloaded the correct wifi drivers.

almost custom roms today have rooted-pre install

kernel doesn't affect anything :p

remember to flash module after flash a new rom!

^^^^^^^ exactly the reason. Plus autoroot causes conflicts with certain roms that already have root thats why its removed from one of my play kernels also

[Xperia Arc Android Development] luiseteyo:
Yes, but if i flash a stock fw, it takes a second for me to flash your kernel and I am rooted. Since it doesn't have root, I have to flash other kernels that have root to have it. Thats why I said it would be the best

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Frenchdroid:
Try downloading v7 again ! Seriously, that happened to me - couldn't get wi-fi to work and redownloaded the v7 file up there now and it worked fine. In fact, before you do that, just check in your phone what ver kernel your phone says is installed, just to check it is actually v7.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] scuba4436:
Hi,

am I right: This kernel has no init.d support? :confused::confused:

Is it possible to support init.d in the next version? Because the CM9/CM10 version of this kernel HAVE init.d support. Please!!!!!

I had bloatware back too (I'm on JJ3.3) but I found out all the apps I didn't need were in the /vendor directory so I just wiped that from CWM... Be careful since probably with other roms there are essential apps there! I'd suggest to delete manually the apps you dont need from root explorer or equivalent!

I dont know why my Arc with ur Kernel so slow slow than stock .587 , make me down .
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ChungHung.Chen:
Dear wedgess,

Why my Arc S report that there are a system update (.587) after flash this kernel?

In Sony PC Companion shows that my system is .431 (actually it's stock .587)?

I am sure only difference is kernel because I check with reflash .587 kernel FTF.

Please help to solve this, thanks.

Another question, is it normal for default CPU clock in 806MHz max?

Do I need SetCPU ?

BR,

Chung-Hung Chen
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Nooby Arc S User:
That's because for some reason this kernel as default clocks the processor at 806mhz max. Get Antut CPU master free and set the processor on demand at 245 ~ 1400mhz.

Sent from my Jellybeaned Arc S
[Xperia Arc Android Development] SuperMari064:
Its the default clock from this kernel, I recommend no-frills cpu control, its free and uses less ram.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ChungHung.Chen:
Thanks for information but no-frills failed in boot. So I still use SetCPU.

Does anyone noticed that another question about system update?

My rom is Snoy STOCK .587, only unlock and flashed LuPus v7 kernel.

P.S. I don't know why no-frills failed in boot but ok when I press apply in APP.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] eliksir:
just flashed this kernel. seems good.

saw in the changelog, "2 way call recording". How do i do this ?

Download a call recording app like callrecorder. Then pick the kernel recording option. There's probably free apps around. I use callrecorder though
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bluelord001:
i has test Lupus kernel v7 in jb&ics remix v3 it and so lag
[Xperia Arc Android Development] exFictitiouZ:
maybe a little late for the party but, anyway... ANT+ is related entirely to the ROM so you need to carefully check if the ROM you're using supports ANT+. since this is not the most popular feature of the arc, it often gets overlooked. for instance I'm using JJHybrid, and JJdoctor made a flashable zip for ANT+ modules for his ROM back when it was v3.1. I flashed it anyway on the latest ROM and it worked. good luck to you.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] eliksir:
Thanks. tried kernel recording option in call recorder. The volume's a bit too low. Any way to amplify it while its being recorded ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Patambiz:
For those who complain lag,, once you flash the kernel its been set to 800 mhz. So just adjust it with nofrills cpu at market..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] irononreverse:
Not that I'm aware of. I've not had any issues with volume. Always loud and clear for me

I had a weird thing happen last night. (I am on v7) I turned on wi-fi and my phone rebooted. When it came back on, wi-fi would NOT turn on. I checked the "About" section of my phone and it says that I am on v6 !!!!!!!

Wi-fi obviously wouldn't work because they are v7 libs.

Anyone have ANY idea why that happened and how I can stop it happening again ?? Thanks in advance

Hy buddy

First of all I like ur Kernels :good:

all includet and no lags

then in the previus section Donload missing your ARCs V6 kernel

But im still have it .......:D

I feel the V6 Kernel snappier:fingers-crossed: then your V7:silly: but the Wifi feel just a litle bit stronger on V7

Im revertet on V6 THX

Noticet:

Im using your kernel Daily with 1,113GHz to 122MHz Viritous and noop, I see thath you have set the boot cpu on V7 to 800MHz, maby and that wath i feel wehn im use the 1,113MHz constantly and daily its not a big difference to 1,402MHz maby you set the boot Cpu to 1,113MHz i think thath the ARC/ARCs dont get any boot issues about thath.

on V6 the ARCs on 1,113MHz its incredible snappy not on other kernels like yours....................god boy gogogo

Good process in the next step and good luck in ur future Works & Life

Now im new with kernels and i install the kernel and wifi modes and zRAM what i whant to know is if i need to configure any thing else because i search and saw people said that need change the clocks.

Can you just tell me if is need to change any other thing or just flash kernel is good?

Thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wedgess:
NP man. Ye its set to boot at 800mhz id recommend SetCpu or no frills to change max clock speed and also min maybe uo 1 or 2 steps. If u want to undervolt (helps improve battery) use SetXperia app. If you do go down -25mv at a time on the cpu frequencys (clock as u call them) and see which ones are stable for u. NOTE - test yourself as everyones device is different.

And to the post above u I also appreciate your thanks but without being smart. Eh how can I say this :confused: i dont quite understand u sorry, try explain a little better :eek:

Oh man wedgess you're spot on..great balance between battery life and performance..

I was with ktg kernel for a month or so..it was great with battery(1.9 to 2.8 %/hour with sleeping and 23-34%/hour with screen on)..but when I opened a few apps it became slow..

But yours is great as always..loving it..

Having said all that..

It lagsfor an initial minute or so.then it becomes snappy.. no big deal..just wanted to give you afeedback..

I'll comment on battery life with more testing..

Right now with the following setup:

Arc $

De bloated super charged stock with sw rendering disabled

Ext4 1.5 gb, swap 512 mb(snappiness 80)

245-1.4 savagedzen while screen on

122-460 conservative white screen off

Under volted a lot..

Around 100 apps

Hspa always on.

K9 mail, Facebook,viber, whatsapp, twitter push..

And a crappy 3g signal.. :)

With the initial experience battery seems to be great..

Thanks a million times man.sorry I couldn't test your kernel this time..

After sleeping overnight, I'm sorry to say it seems there is battery drain with sleep..

Almost 6%/ hour..

Edit: on further testing, it seems to use around 3-4%/ hour during sleeping (with 122-460 conservative) ..somewhat ok I guess..but can be better..gonna try some other governor and report here again..
