First, big thanks to Mujeni for the hard work

you've done allready for our devices

few questions though:

- can i flash boot.img throug Flashtool? and then go to recovery?

- i tried flashing with Cmd console, at first everything seemed ok, but then my mobile data didn't work is this because i did something wrong?

do i need to wipe anything?

- apps like ad-away don't seem to find the SU binaries, is this normal?

thanks

I can't using Root Explorer with this kernel, anyone like me? All another apps is okay (Root Uninstall, ES,v.v...)? But, with stock JB kernel it's okay :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CiscoX:
Hi.

Try instead Root Browser. It is a problem with Root Explorer on JB, when you grant superuser on it. Lot of other people have the same problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tt1991tt:
Thanks. And, how to change splash logo SONY with this kernel?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] donfr:
Yes, Root Explorer does not work with this kernel, so I'm using FX File Manager, it works properly now :good:

Is it much better than stock JB on GO?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidmeda:
Is it possible to just get the recovery? I really want to keep bootloader locked but I'm getting tired of starting all over again when all I really need is to flash a certain file.

No Root Explorer and "Couldn't install on usb storage or sd card" when installing some apps (like XDA Developers...). Ufff...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] judytankgirl:
First of all, I want to say thank you for your wonderful work :)

At first, I'm using your "Stock_JB_boot+CWM_TouchV5.5.0.4_stable+rooted.rar" for a few days without any problem and then upgrade to your "custom_boot_for_stock_XPERIA_Go_JB.zip". But, I notice that my battery draining quite fast even tho performance is good. After a few days of testing, I've decided to go back using your "Stock_JB_boot+CWM_TouchV5.5.0.4_stable+rooted.rar" and now I'm sure it's better for my battery and quite good for performance.

Thanks again.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hdmiacc:
i also have a result same as you
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CiscoX:
Hi.

I don't know, but one thing i notice is that my phone is overclocked automatic to 1.15Ghz and yes it use more battery. Even if i set it to 1 Ghz it automatic overclock himself back to 1.15Ghz.

I am on Ex.Se ICS version, JB is really bad and use a lot of my battery, allso a lot of lagg in JB... etc, I am simple not satisfied by JB and its really sad because some new features in JB is very good but performance really bad.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OverdiveKill:
I didnt have that much battery drain before i installed your boot.img...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] munjeni:
I had in boot kernels. HW bug which I had related to usb/lightsensor is not solved in JB (can not use phone because of lagg after disconnecting usb). Allso audio is not good in my navigation software after installing JB. Seems Beta JB with all previous ICS bugs + new JB bugs = time for buying new phone ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OverdiveKill:
Lol no. Stock jb kernel is a lot better than ics imo.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] munjeni:
This is not ICS kernel, you are wrong, this is JB kernel compiled from Sony JB kernel source code. And allso batery drainage and lags is in stock kernel too (tested). Allso battery curent and level going crazy sometimes, there is 35% battery level but after 30 minutes there is 40%...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidmeda:
Battery performance is bad on stock JB, but everything else feels ok. (I've disabled a bajillion apps). I guess that's the tradeoff for the better performance? I can't say how much of a difference it would be if greenify and cpu sleeper were installed because those two apps made a whole lot of difference to me back in ICS.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] munjeni:
My phone have usb bug (I allready explined bug about usb/als in FXP thread, my phone lagg when I disconnect usb from my phone and phone is very fast when there is usb connection. For example its fixed in CM9 and MIUI CM9 after enabling auto lights, but all other roms for me have these bug and maybe its hw fault in my phone. In stock ICS its ok too. But in JB rom or MIUI stock based rom and some other which I tried have these bug so I can not use JB). I not solved these bug and have no idea what cause that. Allso FXP have no idea. Its seems hw bug in my phone or maybe broken low lever memory thing after too manu locking and relocking boot loader, definitelly I have no idea...

I will add some JB features to the Ex.Se rom and add some JB kernel things to ICS kernel too and make ICS perfect for my needs before I buy new phone, will not use JB any more, not good for me now. Did you tested audio? I experienced very low audio in Igo navigation software, can you try? Allso you can watch battery in #*#*4636*#*# for example you can see battery voltage after full charge going into 4050mV very fast but on ICS its never hapened to me, my battery using ICS going down into 4100mV after 2 hours, but in JB its in 10 minutes!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OverdiveKill:
5050mV?!? WTF?! Mine is at 4201mV at full charge(at least that's what it says on the battery calibration app....

But it's 4201mV in all roms I've tried so far. Jb,ics,gb and cm9 and other custom roms
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LENNUJ:
5050mV?! How can we do that???

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidmeda:
JB stock build.prop for xGo doesn't have corrected mAh value of 1305. Still 1500. Wonder if that could be part of the problem? Maybe not. I could try tweaking build.prop using some of the ICS battery tweaks lying around here but can't do it because I have no root and/or CWM.

So far everything is ok. Audio, response time, usb... just the battery life is a problem.

So I'm stuck with an overclocked phone? Ffs.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] munjeni:
You are not stuck with OC phone because you allways can install stock JB rom from an ftf file. :rolleyes: From my thinking seems you used flashtool for rooting? Allso did you tried to set OC by NoFreels ? I had no problems with OC !

My tests:

- I tried overclock and can not see any problem related to the overclock! Overclock is set by default to the standard (stock rom) values and its min 200, max 1000, from my tests it worked (to be frank, not payed special atention to them, only dumped and confirmed default values using adb shell cat !). I am using only NoFreels Cpu Control apk and these apk alllways worked without any problem and not working in background like some other apks which I tried, so my sugestion to you is NoFreels ! Waiting your reaply till next day!

Just want to see your opinions.

So question for all who installed my boot image:

- any one have working overclock?

Waiting an positive and frank comment ! So read carefully OP, install propertly our boot image folowing the OP, and report here if everything is ok. Do not use flastool for rooting. Do not use bin4ry for rooting. Do not use another busybox. Read OP carefully ! Waiting your reaply.

No other way for now. About flashtol: flastool installing rootkit to your phone without your confirmation, so users complain when root is not working after all that.

I have noticed a major decrease in performance when using antutu benchmark compared to the stock JB.

am I doing something wrong?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] helkaluin:
Munjeni, part of your 'tweaks' is a cron job that drops the Linux VM caches.

May I ask why is this included? The Linux kernel is automatically drops pagecache, dentries and inodes when needed. Doing this manually is only for testing un-cached IO in benchmarks, and doing this in a cronjob is... well, you're basically forcing the phone to re-read stuff that is cached. This causes slower IO and also uses more battery.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] OverdiveKill:
I knew something was wrong with the battery!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidmeda:
I'm currently testing to see how the battery life and performance gets affected by disabling that init.d script for the cron job. If it makes a difference it should be apparent tomorrow after one day at the office.

Update: From 100% down to 90% in 4.5hrs on standby. Wifi on. Most apps Greenified. Nope, no difference from without the cron job. There's really something in JB that eats up the battery.

Update2: 66% around 11 hrs. Hardly used. Wifi still on but not connected. Will see how fast this battery goes with data on.

Update3: 6% after a total of 19hrs45min. Turned on data (wcdma only), wifi off right after update 2. Charged for about 1 hr and used moderately for texting and opera mini. Battery dropped dramatically after playing 10 mins of Cubles (15% to 9%) Tomorrow I'll try with the cron job on.

JB.400 xGO Rooted, Unlocked, Debloated, Greenified
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] helkaluin:
It's not the cronjob itself that is causing battery use, therefore part of your tests (where there are no new I/O reads) aren't demonstrative. It is the fact that the cached files are dropped, and subsequent reads require a trip to the storage device (instead of RAM) that uses more time and battery.

If I may suggest that, if you were to give a demonstrative benchmark, that you disable every signal (mobile, mobile broadband, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc.) to isolate just the battery use of I/O. Proceed with the cron job, and launch and close a same app (say, the Gallery, because that reads many files) once every two minutes. Repeat again the same procedure without the cron job. A far better way of course is to isolate everything and just write a Bash script and just do

dd if=/path/to/file of=/dev/null bs=2048k

to to a read of some moderately sized file. If you drop the inode dentries everytime before you read (which the cronjob does periodically) your phone would necessarily re-read the file raw from the storage device, instead of quickly fetching it cached in RAM.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidmeda:
You edit waaay too fast. Haha. Ok, I'll try that. I'm just thinking real world scenario. I've never even tried what I did on ICS because there was no need to. This would probably be to give me or anyone interested some idea of the battery life difference between ICS and JB for the Go because to me, JB clearly drains faster.

JTAG is a tool, made by RIFF, not just a software.Any respectable gsm service has one.Rewriting software with JTAG costs between 10 and 20 euros,depending on the phone.At least here in Romania it costs this much.Don't know other countries.

Bottom line, writing the IMEI it's not a DIY job.it can be done only with proper tools,on a specialised center.

I think there would be another way,but i'm not sure, you need to talk to shelnutt or autoprime to confirm or not.

If the EFS backup from other phone can be decompiled,and the IMEI section is find,change the existing imei on that backup with yours, recompile and restore it with freegeee.i repeat,this is just a theory.

[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
Even with a samsung, if you'd screwed the partitions real good, you'd lose everything, even the backup.

You can try it, but most likely not.

You would need to decrypt the file, replace with your IMEI and encrypt it. copy it and it "would" work, theorically.

OR, you could call your provider and ask them if they can do it. Might not be worth the hassle!
[LG Optimus G (International)] saverik:
Yes I can resolve sending the phone in service...But my wife told me "don't to do that"" :o

For me will a victory if I rewrite my Imei because in the future i will change new rom... and want learn how to...:cowboy:

how I can enter in Diag Mode?
[LG Optimus G (International)] t1mman:
you're not sending it for waranty, the "waranty" was void when you changed the rom. If your provider gets to know that they will void it "officialy".

You may contact the service to know if they can rewrite an EMEI, and ask them how much they charge for it.

The FIRST thing you should do before installing a custom rom is a backup of the EFS partition:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2161611

or, if you have installed freeGee, you might already have a backup in the FreeGee folder in img format

If not, then you will need to open thoses .img, edit them with your IMEI and reflash them

that's weird, IMEI is supposed to be "hardware validated", so that if you put the "wrong" IMEI on a phone, it will resolve to a "generic" IMEI.
