Dev, latest version of your kernel does not boot, it only shows Sony logo, cyan led lights up and that's it.

I used this link : http://www.mediafire.com/?cr852tx553us065 . I have CM 9.1 on my Sola.

I flashed via fastboot.

If possible, please make a version that has no OC.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Because it's for Stock roms and not CM roms :)

I'm testing the one for CM roms once it's done I will release it for both stock and CM ;)

And this kernel doesn't have overclock :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Well, can't wait for the CM version. So far I've had the best experience with your kernel. Vengeance kernel seemed unstable and sluggish and Divaksh kernel has non blinking led+OC plus it reboots by itself from time to time.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Well if you are free now I can make a test version for CM :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
The stock version just booted, seems to be ok :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
I am not in front of my computer right now. I can test later tonight... in about 2-3 hours. Upload and I will test.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Thanks for confirming, I will release 3.4 when [MENTION=2074072]matood[/MENTION] confirms the CM kernel is booting :)

Ok my friend I will send you the link in a PM, I'm waiting :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Stock is just fine after couple of hours, I think its ready for release ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Thanks a lot my friend, as for the CM kernel I'm sorry I will delay it for 30 minutes because I'm uploading source code to github, I remembered just when I reached 50% :(

As for you [MENTION=2074072]matood[/MENTION] please check for the following:

1. Check if this process "kworker/u:0" is running (you need an app for that, it's a kernel related process.

2. attempt to lower your CPU freq, umm let's say 800MHz, check if it stays at that level or does it go back to max when the cpu is loaded.

3. Describe battery life in those couple hours (#3 sounds like an english test question :angel: )

Thanks in advance and thank you for your help, but the way, the one you are using is the one I'm going to release, so no need to flash the kernel when I update this thread :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Dev, I am in front of my PC now. I can test the CM kernel overnight.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
1. any app suggestion?

2.even after rebbot it keeps the frequencies...is ok

3. seems to be alright, might report tomorrow.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Sorry for the late reply, I'm uploading kernel to: MediaFire

You will find three files, the one you want is called: Kernel-CM.elf

Upload has just started, so it will take about 5 minutes until you find the file there :)

Happy Testing.

Edit:

Upload Done :)

Edit 2: [MENTION=2074072]matood[/MENTION] can you please check this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?n3pmnra399elt6u

I realized that I made zRam & zCache supported in the kernel but forgot to include the command that actually enables it :-/

CM kernel already has the command in it, but the one for Stock roms doesn't.

Thanks in advance :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Booted fine, cpu frills setup frequencies and the cpu hold it, so is ok and rest will report after a come back from work ;) good job again

EDIT: The frequencies went back to 1GHz by itself...battery seems to be the same as before, but i need to charge phone fully to be sure.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Dev, I could not wait up last night. I will test the kernel now and report.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
CM Kernel was reported it doesn't show bootlogo and has no working recovery, can any one please test this one: Sliding_XSola-CM

As for the stock kernel it's ready, I'm just waiting for the CM kernel to finish :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
wait, i will test it.

i'm on JB now but i have a time to test it :D

EDIT: somehow, booted flawlessly.

EDIT 2: well, it's take more time.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Latest CM kernel boots fine, it does not take too long.

Sdcard,wireless, bluetooth and data work.

I've set the whetley governor and sio scheduler. Will see how that goes.

I do not play games on my phone so I won't be testing any games, sorry.

Boot logo appears and looks OK. 3-way reboot works fine, recovery also works fine.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
The stock is fine except, the frequencies revert back to 200-1000...I had 800max it went back.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Working on some test builds after couple of hours for Xperia U & Sola, they should bring the fix for frequency issue & kworker :) ( I suppose kworker wasn't reported here, but will do my best just in-case it's an existing issue)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
I am uploading test builds right now to: http://www.mediafire.com/?opzawagp8jy2w

Let's hope issue is fixed, and first let's hope it boots :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
CM or stock?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
for both my friend :)

The one for stock just been uploaded ;)

Edit:

Both are in the same folder, names end with "Stock" or "CM"
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Stock just booted fine :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
Wow!!! I answered you five munutes ago, I envy you for your fast internet connection :p

Thanks for confirming :)

Now waiting for a CM user...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Download is ok upload is not bad, but not as fast....

Thanks for the kernel, going sleep now, so will test more tomorow.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
You're welcome, appreciated your help :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
CM is booted too :D wow, you make my phone boot faster :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:

Side Note

You may have heard of XDA - DevCon, well I got an invitation to that event but my only issue is I'm financially tied. This kernel got 600+ downloads for v3.3 (and 10$ donations which I'm really grateful for :) donations are calculated for each version.), I really appreciate it if at least each one of you guys donate a 1$ so I can afford paying for the plane ticket :).

Special Thanks To: [MENTION=2074072]matood[/MENTION] & [MENTION=4595856]itachilinux[/MENTION], they where always here for help :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stiven68:
Thank you for the new release.

There should be something wrong with the download links: is the file Sliding_XSola-CM(2).zip the new kernel for CM?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
I believe in your download folder already was Sliding_XSola-CM.zip, maybe previous version or tried download couple of times, and then it gives you this name Sliding_XSola-CM(2).zip. Check the date when it was created and size and you'll see, because in DeepUnknown's folder is Sliding_XSola-CM.zip.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stiven68:
I have found the Sliding_XSola-CM(2).zip on Mediafire folder but following the link for stock kernel because the one for CM is named Sliding_XU-CM.zip.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Hey Dev, I am not sure what the latest download link is.

When I go to this link : http://www.mediafire.com/?g03njq0sqqso9#ds4tbty0su46u it says that the file was modified on May 12th, but it should say today's or yesterday's date. Please help me out here :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Actually you're right. If you open the stock link you'll get cm(2).zip.
[MENTION=4313825]DeepUnknown[/MENTION] can you check the links? They seems to be messed up...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ivan93tm:
Thanks always for your work and sorry i can't donate you because i don't have any payment method (i pay app on plyastore with SIM credit) =( i have only a question for you, name of file is Sliding_XU-CM.zip is this correct ? =)

and really huge thanks for your your ^_^
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dragxdk:
Hi

The link is not ok for kernel stock v 3.4 :confused:

tapatalk
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Yes, links are bit messed. Wait for dev to fix it.

BTW kernel seems to be more smappier and battery live looks slightly improved :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
What :(

The thing is those test files where in the test folder but after you guys approved they are working I moved them to 3.4 folder which already contained files with the same name, so this explains why there is (2) for each kernel, and yes those kernels where uploaded on may 13

but I just checked they show May 15 :-/,

I will replace download links in the thread with the direct download of the files. and it also shows me May 15 under Date modified.

but I realized one thing, that both links point to the CM kernel :eek:

Sorry about that will fix them right now :)

Edit:

Tonight I will be fixing LED issue for CM :)

Edit 2:

Links fixed I'm very sorry it turned out the link for CM kernel was titled under Stock kernel & the CM link was for Xperia U kernel :S My mistake :angel:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ivan93tm:
Thanks a lot for work XD waiting for led fixed version and test it :)

Re: [Kernel][Sony Xperia Sola][March - 24] Sliding_XSola [Stock]

Well, I find oc always useful(although it can be dangerous), but if u are afraid of doing that then I am fine with it... About governors, I guess u could go to the op of this thread, read some governors possibly search about them and choose some of them.

Re: [Kernel][Sony Xperia Sola][March - 24] Sliding_XSola [Stock]

I did a lot of overclocking on desktops, I optimized that and get proper cooling. Its a very complex process involving a lot of offert to keep it on safe side. Sometimes you need to open windows where is minus 15 to keep it cool ;)

With this kernel I dont have feeling, that I need overclock. Its exactly as it should be from factory and what I wanted.

I tried different kernels and even overclocked but there was always one problem, even if you setup max overclock values to 1Ghz it always revert back to max, whatever it was.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
I might delay the CM version for tomorrow, it's 12:30 AM here and I have to wake up tomorrow at 7:30 :-/

Re: [Kernel][Sony Xperia Sola][March - 24] Sliding_XSola [Stock]

Hmmm which app are u using, because I encounter the same problem but after a reboot everything is ok. I am using cpu master pro
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] alivanov79:
Interactivex+deadline

After 10 hours of using: fast, stable, energy consumption is very low, deep sleep is ok.

Now, I think, it's the best kernel.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pukhrajsoni:
Flashed the kernel, its quite fast

problems

1. after flashing it, I did not loose phone root? is it ok??

2. phone says an update (B1.54) is available?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
I flashed CM kernel, it booted, it said 6 applications upgrading, and freezed at starting applications...

EDIT: it booted, unfortunately android.phone has stopped and thats it, i click ok and it say it again and again???
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
but I haven't yet made the kernel for CM, so far it's only for stock, I'm now working on the CM kernel, will upload it once it's done :)

I'm kinda shocked how the stock one booted, the init file in stock kernel is way different than the one in CM kernel so in that case the kernel shouldn't boot. it's gonna take some time, I'm getting download speed of 8KB !!! so upload speed for sure aint going to be higher than 10KB :(

Edit:

CM version download link: Sliding_XSola CM
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] owlwood:
I can't find the hotplugx governor in the latest update (Stock). Has it been removed?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Guys, would you test if your wi-fi goes to sleep when screen is off. This is only for CM users.

Although I have set the wi-fi sleep option to Never when the phone goes to sleep the wi-fi indicator appears to be gray after I turn the screen on. I get no internet connection.

I would have to manually re-connect if I want an internet connection. This does not occur with data connection. I am using whetley governor...might be that too. Will try with interactive. But someone please test and report.

CM USERS ONLY.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ivan93tm:
downlaod now the kernel XD will test in this few time i have befor get out =) can you tell me if led (notification) blick run properly?

i really need because when i'm driving and have phone plugged i can't understand if there is some missed call or other (my speaker have problem and have so low volume)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
I'm sorry it's fixed but not in the released versions. the next update will include the fix :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ivan93tm:
really thanks ^_^ so for the moment i will use stock kernel, and when next update will come i will yuse you, is the best for CM like Divaksh kernel, but he is better in stock =) u're the best for our sola with our master munjeni =) really really thanks... always hit it XD

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tadeas482:
Stock ICS and CM 9.1.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
After some time of usage...

Its the best kernel for stock, stable (no random reboots or similar troubles), fast and smooth in term of performance and battery, I'm charging my phone every two days, basically 40+ hours of moderate usage. Some music, wifi and 3g browsing, phone calls and maybe some videos. Its perfect...

Thanks again for all your work.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] statbat:
I guess this kernel is for ICS and not for GB 2.3.7

Is there any kernel of GB 2.3.7 STOCK ?

Would love to have it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] erj22:
what governor / scheduler do you use?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Ondemandq/noop or sio
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
I am using the CM new version and have the same feeling - 2 days of many many calls (trust me i talk a lot) and browsing.

Good performance and battery life, no problems (besides a very low volume during call, but it can be ROM problem).

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:

I Have successfully made the kernel boot on Xperia U JellyBean, will update this kernel tonight for ICS users and put a test version for JellyBean users :) (it's 10:30AM now so it's gonna take about 10 to 12 hours before I come back to work)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
goodluck bro! will test it as soon as possible!

Sorry for the delay :-/ was waiting for test results from Xperia U forum. anyways results where great and now I'm compiling the one for this device :)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OmarBizreh:
1. You need unlocked bootloader. A rooted device wont be useful with locked bootloader

2. Install it via CWM IF you have an unlocked bootloader.

Good luck :)

Soooo what are the results?!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kappadue:
Wipe dalvik cache and cache, it's right?

You are great. There are a lot of governor and scheduler. I'll try it as best I can :laugh: . What combination of governor and scheduler you suggest?

Great, so now that it booted I will announce it's release :)

Thanks for your help :D

Version 4 (Stock ONLY) Change Log

ICS kernel links for CM9.1 & Stock included in Download section of this post.

v4 is for Stock JellyBean ONLY. v3.x & v2 are for ICS ONLY

Based on FXP source code for CM10

All features of ICS kernel included

All Governors & IO Schedulers of ICS kernel also included (maybe I missed on or two, but the important ones are there :) )

irq: Set CPU affinity as soon as the irq thread is created [1]

ARM: decompressor: Enable unaligned memory access for v6 and above [2]

Source code will be uploaded tomorrow :)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation for [1] & [2]

[1] In an embedded target where IRQ affinities are pre-configured during

boot-time (and not modified through /proc/irq/../smp_affinity) during

run-time, the extra latency due to irq_thread_check_affinity can be

avoided during processing of the first interrupt with this patch.

[2] Modern GCC can generate code which makes use of the CPU's native

unaligned memory access capabilities. This is useful for the C

decompressor implementations used for unpacking compressed kernels.

This patch disables alignment faults and enables the v6 unaligned

access model on CPUs which support these features (i.e., v6 and

later), allowing full unaligned access support for C code in the

decompressor.

The decompressor C code must not be built to assume that unaligned

access works if support for v5 or older platforms is included in

the kernel.

For correct code generation, C decompressor code must always use

the get_unaligned and put_unaligned accessors when dealing with

unaligned pointers, regardless of this patch.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Side Note

You may have heard of XDA - DevCon, well I got an invitation to that event but my only issue is I'm financially tied.
