hi

any news on otg boss?

i have a question: when i use internet on 3g my phone's back is a little hot..is it normal..or i have to configure some in trickmod? I used your suggestions in first post
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Naa. HSPA always gets the phone hot. That's normal. Unfortunately, the modem cannot be controlled. And with regards to OTG, I haven't really started work on the new kernel. I'll need some more time. But it's definitely coming. :D Thanks for following :)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] feesta:
ah ok fortunally is normal :D no thank YOU for the hard work...so u can't solve it on this kernel but u have to make another? i hope it has the same features of this :D
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] guokeong:
not sure if it helps the screen hang issue... i didnt experienced any screen hang using the stock launcher. but recently i installed nova launcher (free) and promptly encountered the screen hang issue.

any update on how the fix is coming along?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
It's being tested right now. :)

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] guokeong:
:good: thanks!!

possible to share whats causing the problem? maybe a possible workaround is possible if we know the source of the problem, instead of totally disabling s2w :)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
I was using the hardware method of sweep2wake/dt2w. So, I essentially use the firmware in the touchscreen. Sometimes, it can be stuck in a lock/loop. So, I have implemented a quick reset mechanism after the gesture unlock so that the lock is cleared.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] guokeong:
looks like no workaround then. thanks and hope the testing goes well :D

battery bug

i am on monx rom...and in this rom the battery reboot bug was resolved..but i just reboot my phone on 30% and now is 53...maybe is your kernel? before all was ok..:/
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Nope. That bug exists in all devices, still. However, it's less frequent than before. This kernel is updated to latest Sony. So, shouldn't be the kernel's fault.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] dron39:
Sorry for repeating, but why are you not add exFAT support to this kernel? exFAT break something else or what?

Just interesting.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
ex-FAT is slightly broken. It works in stops and starts.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] feesta:
but i advice that on monx rom there isn't battery bug...perhaps occurs randomly..:( i don't understand

[MENTION=4645070]alnikki25k[/MENTION] i know this is very off topic, im a user of your kernel aswell and i got an Xperia Z Ultra but i had some issues with wifi not switching on. there are a few devs on that forum so i was wondering if u could help. here's my post to that forum http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2477578

Thanks!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
I read through it. So you didn't have this problem in the older firmware?

Sent from my C6603
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] dyepnoodle:
no i dont, after getting the OTA update wifi got screwed up. even downgrading to old firmware doesnt help
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] guokeong:
hi alnikki25k, thanks for your awesome kernel :laugh::laugh: how's the testing for screen hang issue coming along?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
So far, good signs. It's fixed ;)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] crazymister:
By the way, I used to have like 4 or 5 screen hangs a day, but since I started using facial recognition I only have 1 every few days (before i didn't use any pattern or pin). Maybe it's helpful until the fix is released
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] o0oP5:
can't wait for v11!! hopefully screen freeze fixed for good!!!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
New build : XzK v11 Up! :cowboy:
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
After install have some bugs:

- apps installed to app-asec are not active

- exFAT sdcard doesn't mount

- something wrong with gamma (colors are a little diferent)

Using it with RomAur v9.1

XzK v10, DooMKernel v16 & v19 are fine!

There is nothing mounted to /mnt/asec/* on XzK v11, but on DooMKernel v16 (and others):

/dev/block/dm-0 /mnt/asec/com.skvalex.callrecorder-2 ext4 ro,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noatime 0 0
/dev/block/dm-1 /mnt/asec/cloudtv.hdwidgets-1 ext4 ro,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noatime 0 0
/dev/block/dm-2 /mnt/asec/com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro-1 ext4 ro,dirsync,nosuid,nodev,noatime 0 0
...
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] shion420:
Yes, can confirm colors are a little different.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Fixed, just load exfat module from install pakage

busybox insmod /system/lib/modules/exfat.ko

before mounting

busybox mount -o uid=1000,gid=1015,umask=000 -t auto /dev/block/mmcblk1p1 /storage/removable/sdcard1

Still problem with app-asec and screen colors
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Agreed. A small derp. I am re-uploading the file now.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Thanks!

Do you include init.d script? I think in my edition may be unnecessary lines.

And what about app-asec?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
So the init script works for you? It seemed to not work for many. I'll re-pack it into the zip, anyway. Thanks

Also, I don't know about app-asec. I haven't seen others report anything about it. Can you give me a logcat?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Yes it works fine, i just loot into XzK-v11.zip, found there exfat.ko and use it with DoomLord's init.d script.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
v11 re-uploaded. Sorry for the trouble.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] o0oP5:
i don't know and i don't use app-asec, should i worry about this or just ignore the problem?

what is app-asec anyway? mind spare some time and explain, been googling app-asec, but no understandable explanations.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Its applications purchased through market

Oops, my the first logcat is not a download. Here is new logcat for new v11(.2) kernel
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] crazymister:
Same problem here, about app-asec. Lost ability to install all apps I bought. Reverted to v10 and everything works again...
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] o0oP5:
i've purchased apps from the market, so i think i should wait till it get fix right?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
All you apps are there, but inactive, use v10 till fix.

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] crazymister:
Btw, did some research about the asec folder.

App-asec only contains some encrypted containers. The true .apk's can be found in mnt/asec.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Yes, but it is not mounted and I'm not smart enough to say why.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] ankabo:

Hmm. Looks like some crypto patch must have messes up the system. Alright. I'll be uploading a test kernel. If the problem is fixed, I'll push it as stable.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
New test build up.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Installed, at first look like it's fine. I will test it. but before i reboot to flashing test version i had screen bug again on v11.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Don't worry about that. If app-sec is fixed, I'll get the other fix in. :D
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Looks like it fixed. All my apps are on their places. Tried to remove and install a purchased app - everything is fine!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] yeyi01:
Fine for me it is stable :D
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Excellent. Final stable build is now up. For those who downloaded the previous versions, please re-download it. Sorry for the inconvenience. Also, please test the touchscreen and see if the bug comes up again. It shouldn't. But let me know anyway. :good:
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] yeyi01:
Boss I notice after flashing v11 (test) New system update available but still it is. 67
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Yup. That unfortunately happens. It's because this kernel is not fully stock. So the update centre assumes it needs an update. The sources are already based on .67 though.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
its got nothing to do with source... check ur ramdisk ;)

i am guessing that u are using older ramdisk
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
It's not completely fixed, just as it was on v10. Still need fix to unmount/remount using settings and use ext-sd as USB storage (MSC).
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] yeyi01:
Yes please we'll wait for update so that it will become better than doomlord kernel.

Lol peace master doom ;) your the master
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Ah! Makes sense now! Thank you :D
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] shion420:
I just deleted the Update Center app and the notification dissapear.

I flashed the re-uploaded .zip and the color problem is fixed, thanks alnikki25k for this awesome kernel. :good:
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] yeyi01:
Ok
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] o0oP5:
should we wait for updated version?
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] m0b:
Just had a screen lag on last v11.

It was not like on v10, screen just freezes and does not respond to touch until reboot.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] akosirenzo23:
I think there is a bug? Whenever the d2w is not working when i press the power button to unlock then suddenly it reboots automatically.

anyone have problem turning on wifi tethering? when i try to turn on (check the checkbox), a message shows Turning on Hotspot... even after 10 minutes still nothing and the message Turning on Hotspot... is still there.

no problem on bluetooth tether

Hi guys,

I've done a search on the thread with no results, and I am not able to find any info in the OP - I'm also not that familiar with Sony's having been with Samsung for many years (I've owned the Z since release, but not done any custom stuff apart from root/bootloader unlocking)...

I'm still on 10.3.A.0.423 as I haven't gotten round to updating the OS yet, but will this kernel work on 0.423 or must I be on .67 ?

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] ankabo:
If you are on locked bootloader, the kernel will not work.

Otherwise, if you are on unlocked bootloader, install a rom based on stock (no cyanogenmod! - Monx, Existenz or a stock rom) and install this kernel.

Gesendet von meinem C6603 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] lordgoata:
I already said I am bootloader unlocked, and on stock - its just not the latest stock, hence my question! I would have updated the ROM to the latest release already if I had the time to sort it out :crying:

Thanks anyway though :D

Are you able to implement proximity sensing with doubletap2wake? It will be so much more useful with the proximity sensor :)

Theres an app on playstore that uses proximity sensor for waking up your device by double tapping the proximity sensor. But im not sure if it consumes extra battery.

Had problems on v11, screen some times don't wake up, Phone got hot on my pocket maybe for the double tap to wake, and about an hour screen goes crazy tourning on and off.

Installed another kernel (your other one) Will test it and post on the other thread how it Works :)
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:

is there any chance you could make latest version without double tap to wake and swipe to wake?

i think both causing very irritating issue,, and i could live without both function.. :)

because i still got the screen fix issue even on v11,, happen only when i put my phone in my pocket..

no offense bro, i just think that this is the 'best solution' in the mean time, while (you) / (we) figured how to deal with this..
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Disable sweep2wake / tap2wake with the use of init.d scripts.. Problem solved!
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] hussainr:
my first post here so i should say Thank you for the great work and point something out about screen freeze issue.

like others when putting my phone in my pocket, i have the screen freeze issue.

i solve it by pressing power button+holding one finger on screen simultaneously.

sometimes you have to do it several times to fix the issue.

till devs find a software solution :D
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] o0oP5:
i already disabled both function via Trickster Mod, but still got screen freeze.

would it do any different if i do it via init.d script?

[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Rubenos:
Is there a single mod for just DoubleTap2Wake? Or do you need UL for that part? I'd like to see it in a single MOD.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Alright. From next release I'll have two releases.
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
You shouldn't sacrifice functionality because of a thing like this. Rather look into the 2wake add-on functions and see if something is wrong coded / written into kernel, this can happen to everyone. Your kernel is top notch and the most battery focused stock kernel for the Xperia Z - keep up the good work, dude!

EDIT: People can always use Advanced stock / stock kernel + root or build their own kernel if they have so many "problems" with existing ones..
[Xperia Z Original Android Development] alnikki25k:
Agreed. But I'll have another release done for a while. It feels good to have choices ;)

Also, this is a hardware implementation so the problem is not very apparent and unfortunately it seems to occur for a few and not for others.

I might initiate a complete re-base for this kernel without updating the kernel to the linux upstream (so that OTG isn't broken). So, the next update may take sometime.

Strange and weird problem with your kernel. I was using it many. weeks, but in the last days there were some apps that I can't update. In app store I got the message, that it cannot be installed to sd or external drive. I tried everything, installing another rom, today the new one from monx (Z1), but the same issue with your kernel. I formated the sd new, and issue. I tried doomlords kernel, everything is working and I can update all apps again.

Re-download v11 from the Download section. This was the problem that occurred with v11 when I uploaded the first version of it. After that I took it down and almost immediately uploaded a new version. So there's a good chance you have the older file.
