Issues \ bugs

Have used v16 and v18 on stock rom for 4 weeks. Works well. Especially happy with the faux sound mod - the reason I "upgraded".

Issues:

1. Camera: freezes and shuts down after I press camera button. 50% of times. I restart the camera app 2-3 times to get it working. It all takes from 5 to 20 secounds to capture one shot. A lot of the "kodak moments" are lost. Any suggestions?

2. Some sound problems in shifting applications: example - listening to music on spotify and there is an incoming call. Loud noize, crackling for 0.5 sec then incoming call\back to listening to music.

3. Some random freezes - however these are few and far between. The kernel seems less stable than the original kernel.

Issues are consistend through different governors and clocks.

I like the improved batterytime (underclocked), snappyness, backup\restore utilities. Thanks a whole bunch and keep up the great work:good:

Any update on chips which had different GPU...ie the non-overclocked GPUs. What do u need to get it working.

And what about unlocking 192MHz...i would really like to play my music at low freq when the screen is OFF. something like msm_sleeper :D

What would be the advantage of Custom WLAN modules? O.o
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] hlavicka82:
The prima drivers from SlimRom based on dbolivar's suggestion work form me in my custom build from DooMLoRDs source. Intelliplug also works so I guess it is just a matter of time before its in the official DooMKernel. :D
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
can u send me a pull request? it will save me a LOT of time!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] :
New firmware is out
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
which new firmware?

So finally got rid of all my UI lag with this kernel. Seems it was the swappiness. Sent it to 0 percent and everything is so smooth with intelliactive governor now.

Camera loads faster and stuff and battery is excellent.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] BlackSoulxxx:
For anyone who achieved 36K+ on Antutu, pls share setting :) !!!!!

Please tell your kernel configuration :)

In fact, I think the kernel is very good, just need to deal with all the settings to get the maximum effect and convenience. While I rolled on the stock, but I hope that the move to make v:19 doomlord again

This is awesome for idle. Just used whats app and took 2 photos and checked emails. Can't want anything better for now. Gaming I will test later. Also will post a screenshot when i am 30%. I will be working out and listening to music in a while and maybe playing a few games so i will have a proper read out of battery after some heavy usage. Some may get better battery life than me because i go for more a mixture of performance and battery not pure battery life.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
huge thanks to [MENTION=4972043]dbolivar[/MENTION] !!! now we have custom wifi wlan drivers working on stock ROM!!!

thanks to [MENTION=4642124]hlavicka82[/MENTION] for testing it out on my Z1 sources!!!

now adding new features!!!

intelli-plug already done!!!

only issue right now is that these changes BREAK the proprietary exFAT module (TexFAT) compatibility... so exFAT card support will now break :(

I am working on a solution (alternate exFAT drivers)... once those are in place... I will release new kernel...

regards,

DooMLoRD
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] dbolivar:
Now we are talking! Eager to test v19! Thanks Lord!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
some more features added!

intelli-KSM!

CPU voltage control!

Simple GPU algorithm!

exFAT compatibility will take some time... so will release kernel as-is!

[ IMP NOTE ]

1] starting from v19 onwards you will not be able to get back to stock kernel directly as the wifi related files get changed while flashing kernel!

2] I will release updated advanced stock kernel package to support easily going back to stock kernel!

3] THIS BREAKS exFAT compatibility for now! if you have exFAT based external SDCARD IT WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS KERNEL VERSION!

I am working on fixing this but it will take some time!

Thanks dev!! I will try v19! But v18 work fine for me right now:

Best Sdcard format to replace exFAT? Also want my Sdcard to be able to be read on Windows through my phone.

Also does firmware .761 work with this?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mikailmohammed:
How to check if my SD card is EXfat??
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] :
you can check on Windows if you right click it and select properties
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mikailmohammed:
My phones doesn't show up in storage mount mode and i don't know how to change that. I have tried.

Ok. It says generic hierarchical. Is it safe to test this new kernel with that or not? It's the only thing holding me back right now.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tomascus:
Usually if you formatted your Sdcard through your phone, it will be exFat. The only way to check seems to be using a sdcard reader.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] :
You'll have to mount your sdcard onto your computer without your phone
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mikailmohammed:
I am exFAT... dammnn..

i've tested the kernel and the only thing that not working for me is overclock gpu,

but that's not a big issue

great work man :good::good::good:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Try out v19... You might like it more :)

I haven't tested with 761, but since the kernel sources for 757 & 761 are same I think it should work on it...

Update to latest Fauxclock app... I am in the beta testing group so I always have latest version of app ;)

Below 200 mhz there will be heavy UI lag...

Have fun tweaking the kernel to your liking! And keep sharing the settings which worked for you!

Ya I will start work on fixing GPU overclock issue now...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] marvin_666:
Hi, what is alternative for exFat for android? Only Fat32?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Balaram12:
First off thanks for the tip

And I was curious about the minimum speed as I have seen others with lower speeds but after u said that im okay with it

V19 seems to have increased my battery abit

It also heats up slower when gaming mc4 :cool:

Only thing is it slows down when heated up so I have to disable the eco mode and multi core power saving

Is there anyway to avoid this?

My current settings are at 65 degrees it throttles frequency and I didnt set it to throttle cores as it slows down the device

Edit:

Any alternative to faux clock app?

I dont have a credit card coz im only 14

Pimped app doesnt have all the controls that the kernel has
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] SafiXS:
Oh WOW! Thank you Doom!

So much features to customize our Z1. Can you/someone else explain me the KSM Adjustments and the Hysterisis Value in Hotplug Settings? Thats very confused o.O

Good work Dude!

wait for an hour or so... i am preparing package to get back to stock...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
ok so i have updated the advanced stock kernel package to easily get back to stock (or older kernels)...

also incase there are any issues with the latest v19 kernel please report it so that i can do bug-fixing...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mikailmohammed:
I don't like to ask for ETA for stuff but any idea on when support will come back for exFAT? Or best i format my sd card and try it?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tcchuin:
flash the stock kernel and then flash v18 if you're in rush.

besides that, does anyone know how i can disable the touchboost feature? the cpu freq is still being boosted to 1.498ghz from time to time when i touches the screen.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
Is there any chance that this kernel will become useable for CM based ROMs? I would really like to have all the features. The only other kernel that is available and is working on CM based ROMs is Pimped and the further developement of that one is unsure.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
i will not be releasing any kernels for CM/AOSP based roms...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
Not what I hoped to hear, but thx for the clarification anyway.

Don't any of you read? DooMLoRD already said the v19 will not support exFAT SDcards.

Has someone already tested this:

added interface to control vibration intensity (thanks to @Kali- ) [v19 onwards]

interface is located at: /sys/devices/virtual/timed_output/vibrator/vtg_level

accepted values: 12 to 31

I find no folder "vtg_level" under this path...

So what I have to do exactly to decrease the vibrator intensity (e. g. to 18 or 20)? Do I have to generate a folder or a file named "vtg_level"?

Thanks in advance!

(loving the audio settings), but having some noticable lag/stutter on the animations (scrolling left or right) & app draw in nova laucher, that were not there on stock kernel.

Anyone else notice this? is there perhaps any settings that I could change. Governor etc ?

Swappiness only play a role if you have zram active? And if you use O% it's the same if you disable zram. I hope Im not wrong with it, if yes my vision of the world will be destroyed.

Please stop spamming a kernel thread on how to install a rom.

Ask for help in the Q&A section if you are having trouble understanding the instructions given in the OP of the ROM thread. This is the wrong place to ask.

I am using the latest version with these recommended settings along with pimpmyz1.

Its the first time I am using doom kernel.

The phone is responsive and there is no lag but it runs pretty darn hot and I am kind of concerned. Its so hot that it becomes a little uncomfortable to hold in the hand.

As for the battery life please refer to the screenshot attached. I am sure it can be a lot better than this.

I am using monx rom BTW.

Please advise on how to get better results in terms of battery life and phone temperature.

Somewhat off-topic:

It keeps whining about having an OTA update ready even though I'm already at 761 :eek: You may not encounter the same, though be warned

Yup, same for me. That's why I switched back to stock 757.

Drop you max cpu frequency to 1.9ghz. Make sure you have on thermal throttling. You can use the Intelliplug over mpdecision. I have not tested it yet but it should give better battery life. Other than that our phone still gets hot no matter what when gaming and warm doing long periods of browsing and youtubing.
