Yet.

Please understand all the deepness of this word in this situation :)

It`s not because of bad hardware. This is an engineering solution, that is made according to complicated calculations. In two words, the bigger current flows, the large amount of heat produces.

Example. Do you remember light bulb? It lights because through it`s glower great current flows. But the thickness of this glower calculated to provide light and not to break. This is a key moment. If in some way current increases, the glower overheats and burns. Exactly the same thing happening in your phone. You increase the current, the larger amount of heat produces, and according to the example, at some moment conductors on the PCB (Printed circuit board) may just burns (actually it happens with electronics, e.g transistors).

The main point, is that all electronics calculated for specific conditions (current, voltage), and there is no even one good engineer, who would take responsibility for using equipment in increased over standard conditions.

But, people are people (c) :) So if you not afraid, if you really have emergency situation, you can take a risk for a short time.

I`m not trying to dehort you, you doing great stuff, and keep going. But you should understand what you doing and warn other people about all the risks.

I also found sdcard2 sorry my mistake

Nice work bro thanks for your support for XL.

One question how i use that partition for install application.
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
A bad news :

My HDD just has undergone a massive failure. I have lost all of my data. And currently not in a position to afford a new HDD.

So I am ending the support from my end until I get a new HDD which I doubt I won't get for next 2 months.

Good luck
[Sony Xperia L] siankatabg:
That is rly bad :( You cant use your computer at all?

I got 2 questions in this situation:

Can you tell me your idea for my fix,so i can fix it in right way?

And can i have permissions to add my fix to your kernel and upload it here?Because your kernel is awesome and many ppl will want to use it with my fix(i got 3 PM-s with that request,but i refused them).
[Sony Xperia L] sherry_94:
Oh god ....oh god......why you do this ???

Thanks varun for what you did in XL development
[Sony Xperia L] amnher:
Bad news :( we are almost there.for cm fixed well thanks for all you have done
[Sony Xperia L] Joel16:
I guess there wont be any CM11 from him then.
[Sony Xperia L] sushobith:
Its sad to hear....:(:(:(
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
fortunately I have all my sources up on my private bitbucket repo! So it will be easy to resume all of my developments when I get the new HDD. Will be ordering new one once I am ready to do that
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
I haven't yet tested it yet and all this happened before I do that.

Yes you can post the kernel with your fixes but please use this thread wherever possible.
[Sony Xperia L] mischo12331:
well i could sent you some dollar and i bet others could do too so you can get back to work sooner :D
[Sony Xperia L] nakulp:
Currently a 1 Terabyte HDD in India is at around ~Rs.4200 (by personal estimate) or about $65. If just 13 of the thousands of people here donate about $5 each then Varun can get himself a new HD in no time. Or 65 people with $1 each (however it plays out i.e ).

Thus I want to know here now that after using his contributions for such a long time here - who is actually ready for some real deal pledging of just a few dollars?

Guys,please consider about this issue & try pledging various amounts as comfortable for you to keep the glory of out Xperia L going and help out a brother in need.:cool:
[Sony Xperia L] siankatabg:
Who want an awesome kernel with internal SDcard fix?

Here it is:

http://www.mediafire.com/download/f2ojiqka34vsauj/bootkktwrp-fix.img

This is ThunderZap 4.1 kernel with my fix for internal SD.

You can rename it to bootkktwrp.img and add it to the original flashable zip given by Varun.

Instructions to fix your SD files location:(to see them in /sdcard and /storage/sdcard0) (you need to have root)

First way is with root explorer:

1.Go to /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 and move all the files and folders without "legacy,obb,0" to /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0/0

Second way is with terminal:

1.Just tipe:

su
cd /mnt/media_rw/sdcard0
mv !(0|legacy|obb) 0

You need to do this once and after that, you can use your 4gb sdcard like before, for many apps,big games or what you want.

Please report if all is working good.

P.S.-Varun I listen your advice and I move the mount from fstab.sony to init.sony.rc.
[Sony Xperia L] lryanc.rosende:
It is sad to hear that you lost your HDD, I hope you will get one soon.

BTW,

Where can I find the download link for v4.1-r2 or v4? I did not see any or I just missed it. thank you... :cyclops:
[Sony Xperia L] sherry_94:
On top of OP , there is a tab
[Sony Xperia L] joebonrichie:
HDD's are pretty cheap nowadays, you can get a decent 500GB HDD for $60

where are all the donations for [MENTION=4309448]varun.chitre15[/MENTION] guys ??? :D
[Sony Xperia L] ZN6:
Just want to report. The trick does work!

Really thanks for this. Now I can used my old 4gb storage.

All are working fine here.

First I try to using terminal command to move all my files and folders but fail. Popup said that I don't have enough space. So, I move those files manually.

I can't move my Music and Video folder to the directory. So, I just move those file to ext_card. Not a big deal though.

About mounting obb and data, it was a little tricky. Before the fix, I cant mount obb directory to ext_card. After about an hour, I managed to mount those directory to ext_card.

You need to mount the source folder from

"mnt/media_rw/sdcard0/0/Android/data"

Instead of

"sdcard0/Android/data"

For obb, its a little tricky.

You need to mount

"mnt/media_rw/sdcard0/0/Android/obb" to "mnt/media_rw/sdcard0/obb/"

And mount "mnt/media_rw/sdcard0/obb/" to "sdcard1/your_data"

This it!

Thanks for the great fix.

P.S.

Sorry for quoting your long post. But it need to be quote so other user can enjoy you fix.
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
Just a new update, I have borrowed a laptop temporarily from my friend for my college work until I get my PC corrected and I stand a chance to dev on it too :D

So I will resume everything from tomorrow ;)

Ofcourse there will be TZ 4.2 update and lots of other projects lined up but there is also #ThunderZap-5.0 in the works

I have also made some progress in CM bug squashing which I will update about later.

I am using TZ 4.1-r2 with kitkat AOSPA beta 6 .

I got screen on time of 4 hrs 40 minutes...that translates to screen on time of 6 hrs and 20 minutes ....very impressive of my XL eith mix of wifi and Edge usage @ 1 Ghz

See the ram usage ....i dont know what varun did , but its jaw dropping

Now about the thundersonic engine and Charger control

I manage these funstions via shell scripts .....while setting some of them on boot .

Speaker boost does not stick after the phone is woken after sleep . Headphone boost works as expected...,..thundersonic engine is really really awesome....and so is the chatger control .

I use this UV table without any issues without any trouble.....i overclock when at home .

432000: 712500

486000: 725000

1749000: 1171889

Apart from speaker boost not sticking , there is no other issue in the kernel...evn the h/w decoding issue with jb is not there in kitkat.....what else can someone ask for ? Thanks varun for what you did to our XLs .
[Sony Xperia L] sudhamsu:
Can someone validate this voltage table? On another post somewhere, someone mentioned going below 825000 (for the lowest speed and correspondingly scaled voltages for remaining) isn't recommended.

Also, does this voltage table really help with going upto 1.5/1.7Ghz safely? I'm, personally, restricting myself to 1.2GHz for now.
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
Discovery!

I just wanted to let you all know it is 100% possible to have native lagfree 1080p hardware decoding and even

1080p recording

is possible!

I have done some experiments today and they have turned up successful! It still needs some work. Just keep an eye on the Original Dev forum for upcoming days, the mod should be here soon :D :D
[Sony Xperia L] jokerpappu:
thanks for another great news dude.keep it up
[Sony Xperia L] ZN6:
Yes, on lowest frequency

it is not recommended to UV too much as it may cause instability. Mainly during music playback.

For OC, its up to you. MSM8230 originally clocked up to 1.2ghz. Sony just UC it. So, I myself also stick to 1.2ghz for overall performance and battery life.

Good job. I always expect something good from you.:)

Thank for supporting XL community.
[Sony Xperia L] mischo12331:
i know you can come up with impresive things :D

you still havent failed us on something new :D gj
[Sony Xperia L] sushobith:

[Sony Xperia L] nandroidz:
Is there anyway to turn off your Sound Control because its conflicting with ViPER4Android App :)
[Sony Xperia L] R.A.B:
I dont't think it's a kernel problem. As I have said before (ThunderZap 3.x): VIPER seems to be in conflict with newer firmwares (0.12, 0.14).

I still use fw 0.26 along with TZ4.1, Walkman and VIPER without trouble.

...
[Sony Xperia L] nandroidz:
I am using KitKat 4.4 (AOSP)
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
Sound control has nothing to do with that sound mod.

[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
For people who are curious about my progress.

Well I have made huge progress today!

After 2 months of work I have made CAF kernel finally working on CM11 with almost everything working! including the hwcomposer, gralloc and lots of other stuff which we have been depending on Sony AOSP device tree till now.

what this means to us?

That means now with the device tree I am gonna release soon we will be able to compile any future android version with almost none/minimum changes.

Look for a new thread in OD forum in next hour.
[Sony Xperia L] siankatabg:
You made it!!! Good work.

Finally we will have proper CM11 for our phones... Cant wait for your build :)
[Sony Xperia L] sherif_linkin:
In future we will have the same bugs of the current version with the new kernel?
[Sony Xperia L] Raj joshi:

[Sony Xperia L] Jstrax:
Hey guys, I have one problem with the kernel, when I'm browsing using google chrome or watching some videos on youtube, my phone freezes but the audio is still playing, if I turn off the phone, it won't turn on anymore so I have to remove the battery and restart, at first, I thought its because of OCing, so I returned to 1 or 1.2 ghz and its still there, maybe its because of my wrong voltage table, i've read something about that. This problem doesnt happen before I installed the kernel or 4.1

tl;dr version: Someone please post a stable voltage table that is compatible with overclocking to 1.2 or 1.4
[Sony Xperia L] HatchetEgg:
I'm also experiencing this problem too if anyone knows a solution it would be awesome!
[Sony Xperia L] sherry_94:

I am currently using the voltage table provided in the ThunderZap 4.1-R2. So yes.
[Sony Xperia L] srcharged:
Nice.

IF you still have problems, pleasae head over to the discussion thread. or PM me. :)
[Sony Xperia L] sherry_94:
I too face that problem with videos in jelly bean .....i never watch vids in browser....but i use mx player. Even varun has acknowledged this bug ....however there is no such prob with kitkat aospa. Try that until cm releases. Or i am afraid , you need to change to some different kernel
[Sony Xperia L] Jstrax:
Yes, im on JB 15.3.A.1.14. But now, I changed my OC to 1.2 instead of 1.4, and im using the preset voltage table and the problem is not happening too often anymore, but its still there. Also, if I use TZ 4.1 on KK flavor but stay on Stock ROM, will it do any change?
[Sony Xperia L] srcharged:
Please don't try KK on JB.

If you stay on STOCK ROM and use the KK flavour, You would find yourself occupied in a bootloop. The KK version is meant only for KK, and the JB version is meant only for JB. :)

Hope i helped you.
[Sony Xperia L] HatchetEgg:
Thanks for your help.

What kernel do you recommend instead of thunderzap?

I have tried phoenix kernel and never got any freeze on Jelly bean. But it is no longer being supported!
[Sony Xperia L] Jstrax:
Thanks :) Almost tried that xD. I guess I'll just have to wait for an official 4.4 update or a stable CM11.
[Sony Xperia L] srcharged:
CM11 is pretty stable!

We have only one serious bug! the bluetooth is completely broken for now and the GPS is not perfect. we have access to the 4 GB internal now! try if you get time and youll love it. :)
[Sony Xperia L] sherif_linkin:
Bluetooth is fixed
[Sony Xperia L] Jstrax:
Bluetooth is fixed?!, Awesome :D, Will definitely try it once I get the chance :) I dont use GPS so basically everything is fine for me.

---------- Post added at 10:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:18 PM ----------

Also, what ROM should I use? OmniROM, CM11 or AOSP? I saw in the official threads that they have the same problems, just wondering if one is better than another or if one has more features, Thanks :)

But it does soft reboot!!

It makes soft reboots within 2-3 mins.

I tried flashing ftf again but no use.

Only those who are facing freezes, try this new build quickly and see if it fixes those freezes. This is not the actual 2.5 release just same 2.0 build with a hotfix

Once Sony releases source archive for that firmware, kernel will be made compatible with it ;)

But prior to that I need to fix the freezes in selective phones, and I am ready to start again from scratch to fix that bug ;)

So far so Good looks like it works. It doesn't freeze right after boot now but let me see over time :)

Edit: It works no problems at all :) what was the problem?

[Sony Xperia L] ImTooNoob:
Works like a charm now, my phone is amazingly fast! Nice work with your kernel ;)
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
Good, now I can add new stuff to 2.5 with peace :p
[Sony Xperia L] Crytech:
Please try to support latest .17 firmwares also if you can:)
[Sony Xperia L] kaioziro:
Now yes, without freezing and rebooting.

I will test for a few more hours and see if everything is ok.

I'm almost one hour and using anything reebot!

Now it's perfect: D
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
I have updated first post as well all links with today's fixup build.

Everyone, both who were facing freezes and who weren't are asked to update.

The issue was mismatched voltage table. The kernel was undervolted to abnormally low voltage by 125mV :p which was causing the CPU to starve in need of voltage causing freezes. The new kernel fixes the voltage table
[Sony Xperia L] varun.chitre15:
That cannot be done unless Sony publishes open source archive for the new firmware. I have keen eye on Sony's tweets, I will post up here once the source archive is out and I will start working on it immediately ;)

Cheers.
