hi , i use fastboot mod

so you mean i should to use hotboot to flash LuPuSv16 ?

i mean : maybe the problem is that I've used previously LuPuS , so if i flash other kernels after (over) LuPuS ,so their modules don't work

now i'm going to test with hotboot , i didn't use hotboot until now , so what should i do ? what is hotboot ? how can it help me ? i can see hotboot in flashtool , are you mean hotboot in flashtool ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Rapsody10:
You need fastboot

Ss for thr wifi

turn it on if doesnt work

Reboot once and try again in general aftet one boot should work

If that doest work

Delete the wifi modules an lupus should create them again
[Xperia Arc Android Development] EAGLEBOOY:
you understand wrong , i know what you say

wifi works for lupus but when i flash another kernel , and flash kernel's wifi modules , wifi don't work , it is because i flashed LuPuS previously
[Xperia Arc Android Development] martinusbe:
Did you try removing wifi modules before flashing other kernel ?

I use Lupus but change kernels regurarly for testing, and Always get Wifi working....
[Xperia Arc Android Development] EAGLEBOOY:
i think i tested but not sure , now i'm going to test , thanks
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Rapsody10:
You are right I miss understood you

Some tines when you try other kernels with different versions like veng you need to make sure to get the right wifi modules for the version you are installing also if you are on the b13 some might not work as they are for .587 etc

Good luck

who have this problem ????? i found a new option to fix it

hi , who have this problem ?????

my problem is :

i want to use (wifi/usb/bluetooth) tethering , everything is good just after removing wifi modules from lupus menu ( just for a minute )

after a while i can't use wifi tethering when data is enabled

*****The only thing that I did not notice, it was option 3 , you will read it in the following*****

so i decide to use another kernel : so i should to flash a wifi module from CWM but after boot up i don't have any wifi but (usb/bluetooth) tethering works good

i also tried to remove lupus wifi modules before flashing new kernel

So I went back to LuPuS

***** i found a new feature :D i should do the following to make wifi hotspot works when data is enabled ******

i have 3 options:

1 = first enable data then enable wifi hotspot ***in other words*** enable wifi hotspot when data is enabled = works

2 = first enable wifi hotspot then enable data ***in other words*** enable data when wifi hotspot is enabled = this will make the problem

i should just do option 1 to make it work , if i do option 2 , the problem starts and i can't make it work with option 1

after that the problem starts :d i can't use it again to solv the problem , for example

but i found a new option for make it work

3 = enable data then reboot ***in other words*** reboot when data is enabled , without removing wifi modules

if i do option 3 , i can use option 1 again without problem

uuuhhhhhh :D so strange problem :D

i think my phone have problem with set the internet ip address for tethering

here is the logcat when i did option 2 and wifi hotspot don't work with option 1 :

Wifi problems

im having a lot of wifi problems with this, connection doesnt drop but nothing loads in my browser and my messages dont get sent in apps like kik, whatsapp

i've reflashed the kernel a lot of time nothing helps

any solution to this?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gu5t3r:
ReFlashing kernel will not help you... Flashing same kernel again and again does nothing (same as copying same file over same file)...

Does this problem happen when changing wifi networks or WiFi just stops working on same network...?

Did you tried turning WiFi on off when this problem happens?

Known solution to most wifi problems is to wipe dalvik-cache....
[Xperia Arc Android Development] WaleedT:
Happens over the same wifi network, did on/off a million times now

like i said, the network doesnt disconneect unless im out of range, nothing loads up and even my msgs dont get send when im on im apps

i'll try wiping dalvik.

BTW, do you know whats the difference between wiping and formatting cache?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gu5t3r:
Wipe usually uses "rm -rf" (delete/remove) command to delete everything from cache partition.

Format really formats cache partition...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] WaleedT:
Oh okay, good to know, the problem slowly seems to be going away now i think :)

Anywhoo, can you help me with another problem, since being on my old gb rom recently, i've been having problems with installing anything on my internal storage, i cant install anything from play store nor manually in my internal storage, even though i have about 50 mb left, it keeps saying insufficient storage available, did clean wipe of dalvik cache and fixed permissions but that didnt help at all, is there another solution to this problem? maybe .ftf needs reflashing or something? :/

PS: now im on ics with the .ftf installed which increases internal memory for uhd rom, and problem stayed..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gu5t3r:
Do you get "Low on space"?

If so, you can check xda how to reduce storage threshold, but that won't help much as apps use /data for their cache...

And good is to avoid apps with ads or block ads with Ad Away or Lucky Patcher as every app with ads uses extra 5MB data on /data partition...

Use Clean Master to clean apps cache...

But better way is to use Mounts2SD and move /data/app to second /sd-ext partition on mSD...

I have second partition 1.2GB size and I have moved both dalvik and app to sd-ext and I have 165 apps on sd-ext with total of 1GB size XD

And still 80MB free on /data partition XD

I just flashed it on Xperia Arc lt15i,using Gin2JellyBean 2.4.0 and i flashed v16 and the ram in settings is incrased and now i'm gonna do benchmark test with Atuntu and tell you the score between Lupus GB V2 and this one.I don't know if this version was men't for GB but i gave it a try and the phone booted just fine and now i'm gonna test it how is it on daily use.Thank you so much dev for making this for us.Cheers

Edit:

The benchmark was better on Lupus GB V2 (6422) than on Lupus GB+ICS V16 (6074) in every aspect the Lupus GB V2 is better than Lupus GB+ICS v16.Wifi isn't working on Lupus GB+ICS,i know this was probably not meant for GB users but i gave it a a try,keep up a good work.

booting V16 on iyokan

Hi folks,

i'm using Lupus V16 (2.6.32.9-LuPuS-Stock-gB_iCs-v16) on my MK16 for a quite a while now.

No problems for daily use, but something bothers me a little bit and maybe this could be fixed quite easily.

Have a look at this dmesg output:

This exception is reported on every reboot and i'd like to get it solved.

How could this issue be fixed?

Maybe i'd start my own build from scratch... any advice for an old school build environment for kernel and CWM only?

Don't like to init the whole repo from wedgess just to make some kernel experiments :p

Any hint would be highly appreciated!

How many newer versions are you expecting to come out with before christmas?

thanks.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] gu5t3r:
According to wedgess one update but with 2 versions, usual one and lite with removed unnecessary governors and schedulers...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CTCaer:
Hmm that's strange. The only way for UKSM to run at sleep (and show screen off usage in battery stats apps),

is for a service/app to wake the phone and update widgets or sync or whatever.

Otherwise, the uksm daemon (or worker or thread or service, you name it) can't keep the phone awake.

And when it's done and it's time for the deafult 60ms sleep, the thread freezes until the phone come out of deep sleep.

And I don't remember in lupus' sources anything that break set_freezable() and try_to_freeze() from UKSM

and freeze_processes(), freeze_kernel_threads() from kernel power management. (otherwise I would have that problem also)

So I'll check the lupus threads a little more

---EDIT---

I forgot to say, that in UKSM, anything more than 5000 scan batch pages is an overkill.

Because after it cleans the most pages from system/unkillabe apps that are there to stay, after that it's very clever and fast.

Lower than 5000 though will not do the job in time.

So the best for our mogami board phones is 5000 scan pages and 60ms sleep

(also note here that these are translated to jiffies and that means that 60ms=6jiffies > 60ms).

For example let's say you charge the phone. The phone then will not sleep. UKSM will be running. That will easily free 30-67mb (yeah saw that big freed pages in my Ray) in a couple of minutes in the configuration above.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] scholbert:

I'll build my own kernel and integrate some slight ramdisk tweaks as well.

BTW, found some useful tools...

See ya and thanks for your attention ;)

scholbert
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CTCaer:
Indeed that will get rid of that message.

But you know it doesn't matter. It's just an error message and doesn't create a leakage or break anything.

The focus must be done mostly on performance counters on our humble phones.

And to be true, all the 2011 xperia scene succeeded a lot on that.

It's really funny seeing my phone crash a friend's Xperia S, on UI smoothness.

And also our phones to last more on battery even on OC, than when we had on stock kernels.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] frank_harmann:
Is v8 the newest version for Neo(hallon) or will v16 run on Neo too? If not, will you provide newer versions for the other Xperias too?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] scholbert:
Hi CTCaer!

Thanks a lot for your comment on this and clearing up that there's no faulty behaviour behind.

Here's the message after applying the patch:

...
<6>NET: Registered protocol family 16
<3>socinfo_init: Unknown SOC ID!
<3>socinfo_init: Unknown format found
<6>Clock ownership
...

Anyway i decided to use LuPuS kernel+ramdisk to do some further research on my device!

So let me shortly refer to what i just did for fun and... o.k some educational purpuse as well ;)

With a tiny patch i modified some lines of code to completely ignore the cmdline of bootloader (CONFIG_CMDLINE_FORCE).

This gives the opportunity to tweak the number of visible partitions and as a result read out some hidden sectors of the internal flash.

There are many threads about this method here at XDA and i decided to check that out on my own.

It's very nice to play around with the initrd as well... but i guess i'm off topic now :angel:

Indeed that's amazing!

Custom kernels&ROMs rock!!!

BTW, thanks a lot wedgess for this nice boot image!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers,

scholbert
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CTCaer:
I assume, with that you implemented forced ATAGs, that don't check the bootloader's ones right?

Have in mind that some need the newly compiled init to put in ramdisk also.

I have a special debugging version that I made way back in time. It was fun.

I've changed all ATAG functions and included their input and calculations and output to debug messages, so i could see all of them from

kmsg.

Btw it's better to change the partitions through the nand driver for xperias 2011. The best is reducing cache (because it's unusable in our devices, not even for download cache). But have in mind that ALL nandroid backup become obsolete with any change in /system and /data sizes.

One thing that maybe want to try, is changing the initrd address so you can save 8mb from 16mb (myself, couldn't boot, with what i tried).

What i tried I couldn't boot...

It would be great if you find anything about all these.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] scholbert:
Hey,

thanks again for your feedback...

Mmmh... no i don't want them to be ignored completely... maybe i explained a little missleading.

Just booted the kernel with default msm_nand partition layout which got parsed from cmdline instead of the ATAGs from bootloader.

Next step will be to add the boot section... to read out the boot partition with all its contents.

We only got SIN files and stuff... that's why i would need a raw dump from that particular area :D

Again just for educational purpose... maybe you know my investigative thread over here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2081762

Though there's slightly nothing more useful to add i'd really like to know more about the internal structure of our bootloader.

Yeah sounds nice!

Guess i will leave them untouched for daily use, just because of this reason...

Maybe the boundaries could be left untouched, but with a reduced size of cache partition some additonal area could be created and handled separately, for whatever purpose.

O.K. may have a look here!

AFAIK, default initrd address had to be changed in boot image header and possibly in the kernel as well... not sure if it's handled by ATAGs on our devices :confused:

Made a dump of the ATAG area already, i will have a look at it!

Best regards,

scholbert

[Xperia Arc Android Development] gu5t3r:
1401600KHz i.e 1.4GHz for stock

for governor use ondemand for stock

Lately I use UnderVolted 1.6GHz (with below voltages) with SmartassH3 (intellidemand2 and Smartasssv2 are also good)

134400kHz 825mV
184320kHz 850mV
249600kHz 875mV
364800kHz 900mV
460800kHz 925mV
576000kHz 950mV
652800kHz 975mV
768000kHz 1000mV
806400kHz 1025mV
921600kHz 1050mV
1017600kHz 1075mV

1401600kHz 1175mV
1516800kHz 1200mV
1612800kHz 1225mV

But they might not work on your phone, if you get a bootloop use Aroma FileManager for CWM to delete /system/etc/init.d/83lps_vdd

and try higher voltages...

Edit: I'm trying now using gar_anzu_defconfig. I didn't see the config.

Oh the file was named "xt_connmark", so I've renamed it to "xt_CONNMARK". Trying again.

Edit 3: I had to copy the file again, because it required xt_connmark and xt_CONNMARK, and the same with xt_mark.

What ramdisk should I use? I've tried to unpack your kernel, but the unpacker can't find ramdisk, and if I try using the ICS ramdisk you provided in the kernel source, when I try to boot the boot.img created, it says error (wrong range)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CTCaer:
Good thing you didn't stop and waited and found the right ways to pass these. :)

Have in mind that the best way is to use git in linux to download the source. Other method from site, is tar.

Zip doesn't support same names (with diff in capital or not letters.)

So always use git or obtain tar archive.

To make image with kernel and ramdisk for 2011 phones:

mkbootimg --base 0x00200000 --pagesize 2048 --kernel zImage --ramdisk ramdisk.cpio.gz -o steryman.img
[Xperia Arc Android Development] steryman:
I know how to make image, but problem is that when I use any ramdisk the author provided, after i flash it the kernel bootloops

Later Edit: It seems I've been trying to patch the kernel, but it's already patched :D Anyway, I'm still curious how can I recompile it and make it work(I mean I already have the zImage, but I can't get the ramdisk from the original boot.img).
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CTCaer:
I always used these split/repack tools
[Xperia Arc Android Development] steryman:
I've tried that but it doesn't work on this img.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CTCaer:
Wait you want o unpack stock kernel.sin?

then you need sin kernel unpacker
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wedgess:
If your using my config the ramdisk must use lzma compression unless u change it to gzip in the config. Also the errors u were having on semc config where due to Zeus also being defined and lastly I use a patched mkbootimg that doesn't need pagesize specified if your specifying pagesize then u will need to add fillers to the ramdisk for it to boot.
