Don't know what went wrong, when i flashed this Kernel, root was not working properly, superSU just hanges then FCs??
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] speedy56:
Lost root on existenZ

How to get root back on existenZ v1?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] agha_jo0n:
i did not change any thing !

all of thing are stock!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] stanlin salu:
Flashed the ROM booted up with stock kernel, then flashed XZK, now i have root access without any problems...
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] kael2404:
But what about exFat not working?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] hafini:
I still have some issue with root. Using Ultimate PureZ and after installing the kernel, i lost root. Flashed superSU 1.99rc4 and i got back root but after 20 minutes SUperSU just hang. Go back to stock and root come back normally. Any ideas how i can resolve this?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
I won't be able to help without logs.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
I'll work on that. This release is only to establish a platform for kitkat

Anyone else here having Problems with WiFI not deactivating ?

i turned WiFi off. But Better Battery Stats and Android BOTH showed that WiFI was active the whole time! in Settings WiFI was offline!

According to battery drain is was online! 0.8% Per hour. (Yes! No sim card, flight mode!)

Logs and stuff made via SysLog:

after flashing this on eXistenZ Ultimate (.230) (unlocked BL) doble tap to wake working bt touch not working.Touch Screen Working on TWRP.i can't unlock phone in lock screen.why happning this :confused:

sorry for my bad english.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
Thx -.- i normaly do that, but as i have a Z2 as main phone and only use the Z for Benchmarking and testing i flashed new .230 rom and only disabled location service. Sorry for bothering.

Aleatory Reboot with this kernel on eXistenZ KK rom. The same issue i encounter with this kernel for 4.3 stock and other roms.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] almostthere:
Had deep sleep issues of not waking up, reverted to default kernel until I can figure out why. By the way, was using interactive governor min 348mhz max 1512mhz
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] lojoko:
Good excuse, when I install version 1 existen with the stock kernel will fluid, but by putting this kernel decreases, is something you must configure the kernel to install?.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Will be releasing another version today.

This should be more stable and give you better battery.

I will be reverting back from kernel 3.4.92 to 3.4.0.

Also, I'll be switching to autosmp hotplug, which is also based on mpdecision, but with better scalability.

This should fix

- Any lags

- SuperUser permissions

- Battery drain
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
there really seems to be something wrong!

WiFi is now totally deactivated, but battery drain is not better! still 0.9% per hour
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] shaanyt:
erm... did u mean 3.4.90 or .0 ? That seems a bit far far away LOL
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
3.4.0.

I am reverting all the kernel patches. They seem to make the device drain battery faster than it should.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] shaanyt:
Hmm... i see, what version does Sony's stock kernel for 4.4.2 use? It's actually quite good with battery life... though on V24 i did notice the battery seems to be leaking away somehow.. Though i'm staying for double tap to wake and gamma ! hahahaha :laugh::laugh::laugh:

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
Not quite, as you can see staying on the stable 3.4.0 has advantages over upgrading to latest 3.4.x on our device, there can be some problems with upgrading as you see.

yeah, but i do love software stuff being up to date hahaha though in this case, it seems nobody could figure out whats wrong in them :D
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Newer patches are always generic and meant for the mainline kernel source. The sources released by manufacturers are highly customised and have a lot of different patches and device drivers that don't exist in the main source. Thus, these patches can cause unintended trouble
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] BeDesireS:
I am using your kernel now for a few days with existenz ultimate without any problems or battery drain!

It's really smooth and stable and battery life is quite good.

The only thing that drained my battery was the Google play services, but after disabling the location services everything is fine!

Thanks for your brilliant work! :)

Gesendet von meinem C6603 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Ah. This new release should be better in idle drain. :)

Also, I am now experimenting with Kernel patch 3.4.10
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
AlNikki, you've left 4.3, ya? No chance of making the idle battery usage closer to that of Zombie 4.3 kernel, perhaps?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
I'll make kitkat stable and then work on 4.3 again :)

I need Beta Testers for XzK-v25

Requirements -

1) Should know how to use kmsg and logcat logs

2) Should be able to test battery and performance thoroughly
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Rodoo:
I can test your kernel to see improvement if you already said that. Im in eXistenZ ROM now.

And Thanks for your work always. :victory: Regards
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] gripfly:
So you mean we should understand the kmsg and logcat?

I think it would be interesting to learn that. :)

HI!! [MENTION=4645070]alnikki25k[/MENTION] HELP!!!

THIS KERNEL IS AWESOME AND ITS FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I LIKE A KERNEL :D SO I HAVE PROBLEM!!

After i flashed the kernel my device didnt boot! Its just give me 1 vibrate and red led blinking!!

A already flashed it with flashtool and now its fine

BTW. How do i get this kernel working!?!?!?

What i did is wiped dalvik cache and cache and in aroma installer selected what mods i want and clicked delete xzdualrecovery and selected to install CWM thats all:crying:

I was using eXistenZ ultimate Based on stock kitkat ROM (in the rom thread some people saying they using that kernel with that rom:crying: )

Used philZ recovery to flash:rolleyes:

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!! (PLEASE DON'T IGNORE MY MASSAGE) :crying:
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] gripfly:
Try this:

instead of DoomKernel flash the XzKernel :P
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] androidfreak70:
Ok thanks i'll try!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] gripfly:
Yep just make sure you flash a prerooted one. You will loose less time ;)

I think I did it like this when I changed from DoomKernel to XzKernel and it worked:

-clean(!) ultimate flash

-reboot and let it settle

-flash advanced stock kernel

-reboot and let it settle

-flash XzKernel

-reboot
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] androidfreak70:
Sorry i didnt understood what you mean by clean ultimate flash

and i need to unlock my bootloader.... (the problem from the past with unlocking is still unsolved...)

Send from my Xperia™ Z (C6602) using tapatalk?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] gripfly:
I meant a clean flash of the ultimate ROM.

Right you need to unlock your bootloader. Because when you're trying to boot your locked phone with a custom Kernel, you softbrick(or you get in a bootloop?) your phone.

It's because the locked bootloader checks if the kernel is signed by SONY.

But we shouldn't discuss how to unlock your bootloader here. It's off topic.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] androidfreak70:
oh ok!

actually i know how to unlock my bootloader but a always fail ( for no reason ) but i should try, maybe if my luck good enough it will success! :D

backing up datas....

Send from my Xperia™ Z (C6602) using tapatalk?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] agha_jo0n:
you are kidding??????

you wanted to flash custom kernel to your locked bootloader?:mad:

after few days of combinating this kernel with existenz v1 i get supersu root acces problem just 4 5 hours ago

i flashed the latest supersu v2 and now the problem solved...i don't know this might be stable or not!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] androidfreak70:
so this kernel need unlocked bootloader??

if yes so............. MY PHONE IS LIER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HE SAYING UNLOCK ALLOWED YES AND ITS NO!!!! TRIED MILLION TONS OF TIMES AND I CAN NOT UNLOCK IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

meh... no one can solve my unknown problem with unlocking bootloader... its puzzle...

sorry we getting off topic...

if you or someone want to help me so send me a privet massage about it.

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] demon2112:
if it wont unlock you dont have the needed adb drivers installed or opening the terminal in the wrong folder to use fastboot,

look at multiple threads on here realy close and it will work and to be sure when you enter your unlock code just use capitals

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] androidfreak70:
bro i'm sure all ADB DRIVERS are installed and i open cmd in the right folder of fastboot and used UPPER CASE when i typed the unlock code SO WHAT ELSE!?????!?!?!??
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] crazymister:
Did you make sure you only entered the first 14 characters from your imei when requesting an unlock key from Sony?

If you entered the complete code which usually is 15 digits your unlock will always fail
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] kris555777:
needed too installed fastboot drivers on pc from flashtool/drivers to fully working fastboot
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] petrifyre:
Just try download flashtool and unlock your bootloader using flashtool. It's easier than using command.

Flashtool

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] iamoct:
Thank you very much for the work it's work very well.

But could you add an options to configure double tab delay time?

Currently i has an issue when phone is in my pocket it's wake by it self.

If we can configure the delay like 500ms between tab it would fix the issue

Anyway thanks for your work. :good:
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Sichroteph:
I second this. Called my boss by mistake this morning while in the pocket :(
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] speedy56:
Yeah, I've also had problems with dt2w. The phone would send e-mail, turn off the alarm, record videos and other things while in the pocket
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
Uhm, on v24 I went into snapchat settings and bam my screen went black and the phone was vibrating for something 5 secs straight. Then it rebooted.

This is the last kmsg: http://pastebin.com/tqCN3TPb
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Seems like a non-debuggable problem to me. In all, probability it's the upstream kernel changes are causing these errors. Thus, v25 will be based on kernel 3.4.10

The delay is not possible, at the moment because it's hardware feature and this delay check is hard-coded into the firmware.

I will be, however, releasing an app to enable and disable tap2wake that will not solve the pocket problem, but you can atleast disable it when it's in your pocket for a long time

It will be out, soon. Been really busy

Go ahead, you can port it. As for guides, there are many in this forum. Start with the one on XDA-University
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] DaRk MaDnEsS:
how about stopping unlock the mobile if the sensor is detecting blocked ??

or this isn't possible also !!?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] crazymister:
That would massively drain battery since the phone would have to be awake all the time.

Alnikki25k already explained that some time ago, because i asked the exact same thing ;)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kamy-R:
Can you use proximity sensor for tap2wake in pocket?

I've seen this in my Lumia 520 and STAMINA on android 4.2.2

In Lumia 520, with enabling tap2wake proximity will turn on and after activating, it will disable the touch screen to prevent these problems :)

Something like this was in STAMINA mode on android 4.2.2 and disabled the touch screen in pocket.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
Nope it does not! Instead of unlocking the phone when a doubletap happens, it just activates the proximity sensor and then realizes it's in the pocket and goes back into sleep mode.

But because this is official Sony Touch2Wake (IIRC:.. isn't it? Hardcoded time in firmware and stuff) we can't easily modify it.

P.S this method would still create a huge load of wacklocks. but it would not accidently unlock in pocket.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
Hm... I think I remember the stock behavior of stamina mode in 4.3 being that when the proximity sensor was blocked, the screen couldnt turn on? Somewhere along the road, this behavior disappeared. I dont see how it would make the phone awake at all times, doesnt it just need to check if the proximity sensor is blocked when a "screen on" command is sent?

EDIT: Oh I see Haldi4803 already addressed your post :P
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
I'm getting camera related black screens then reboot sometimes in v24. Much similar to in the JB version before it was fixed..

There's not much information on that. It's a very basic and simple hotplug driver. I am discovering more information on this myself as officially no tunables are mentioned

Is it just me or did the Interactive governor get ALOT more settings? Not that I wanna adjust them but its quite different from the previous one

Which governor are you people using?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
Interactive is ported from common 3.4 kernel with some updates here and there

---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 PM ----------

There's no need to control it, it works just fine.

I think there is no sysfs integrated (and not needed).

hi

my feedback about v 25 :

battery drains faster than v24 !

im comming from v24 kernel and im on existenz v1 rom!

in v24 with general works battrey drain 1% in 3 or 4 minutes

but in v25 with the same works battery drain 1% every 2 minutes or less!

i do wipe cache too!

and i think the performance is less than v24!

v24 was really smooth but had problem with root access!

what is the best governor option for performance and battery?!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] CambaStorm:
I feal the phone faster than v24, but now it's more common the screen freezing when phone is in the pocket. D2W is driving me crazy even with it disabled, it still make phone do crazy things like putting phone in airplane mode.

What about include in the aroma instaler the option to have or not D2W? Just like old versions :) personally I prefer to use just the power button than have to hard reset my phone every time I put it out of my pocket :(.

I don't have yet enough time to test battery. I will test it after full charge.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
I'ts working! no more Battery drain !

Left side is v24, then Reboot, then v25 !

Benchmarks incoming :) Overal_Time_in_State is working again

P.S Other question. is it FauxClock that is setting my GPU gov to performance, or is that stock kernel Setting?

You're right.

V24

v25
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
[MENTION=3056043]Haldi4803[/MENTION] - damn, that airplanemode-batterylife improvement! This must mean that it does much better with mobile data (edge) or wifi on as well, in standby?

As for people talking about worse performance - hm.. I don't know... maybe? Since flashing v25 I've noticed some stutters once in a while that I didnt really notice with v24. But it might be placebo and whatnot so I dont think it's something realiable enough to blame on the kernel.

Also, the "preservative" governor is supposed to be quite batteryfriendly, but when using it, it seems like the clock likes to idle on 702mhz rather than 384, most of the time? Interactive seems best.

EDIT: Regarding possible performance differences, perhaps its because the default governor - interactive - has different settings? "go_highspeed_load" has previously been 85 but is now 95.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kamy-R:
ناموسن؟! :D

I don't have any problem with battery drain, but I confirm that the performance is less than previous versions. Specially in GPU performance. In games like Asphalt 8 and GT Racing 2 I faced with a lot of bug, and sometimes GPU frequency decreases to 200mhz and even 128mhz...(tested with doomlord's GPU info small app)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
Are you sure GPU governor is set to ondemand?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] agha_jo0n:
اره خدایی:دی

yes!

exactly!

i think battery drain fixed since i full charged the phone.now it seems it would be ok!

i install the latest version of asphalt 8 and it has many lag also in medium quality!

performance is less than previous!

if the root problem of v24 could be solved v24 is better than v25 in performance and battery life!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kamy-R:
No, cuase I set it to Interactive
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
GPU not CPU.

btw, Benchmarks are out! Can be found here

From a battery aspect Interactive and Wheatley are the best!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Kocane:
There's a GPU goernor called interactive too ;) I think it gives worse performance than ondemand. What I do is to just download gpu to 200 mhz then use app profiles for heavy games and set it to i goes up to 400 mhz when theyre running.

Thanks for the benchmarks! Preservative is a weird governor.

Which are you personally going for, wheatley or just the classic interactive?

Also, I really feel like I'm getting alot of keyboard lag :(

Hope this will be fixed...

Performance can be easily fixed by tuning your governor

For quick reference here is what you can use -

CPU Governor: Preservative

up_threshold - 70

GPU Governor: Interactive

down_threshold - 10

up_threshold - 40

Temperature control - 70
