[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] aldweb:
Back to the current standard kernel 2 build, here is a new report.

I digged deeper in the keyboard files. And I guess there is some kind of unneeded files in the /system/usr/keylayout/ directory.

For instance, there are 4 .kcm files (Generic.kcm, qwerty.kcm, qwerty2.kcm and Virtual.kcm) usually stored in /system/usr/keylayout/.

And, indeed, I could find these 4 files back in the /system/usr/keylayout/ directory, some of the same size, some not.

I did not do any further diff files analysis, but basically removed all 4 .kcm files in /system/usr/keylayout/.

And I did not suffer all day long from any side effect.

Are all Vendor*.kl files required in /system/usr/keylayout/ ?

When looking into several of these files, I read that they are made for "Apple Wireless Keyboard", "Madcatz Gamepad", "Mad Catz MLG GamePad for Xbox 360" or "Nyko Playpad / Playpad Pro".

I believe that we could remove them without any further notice. This is what I am going to try next.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] psyke83:
It's quite possible that some are unneeded, so please do experiment. Some of these files are installed from the samsung msm7x27-common/callisto device overlays, which could have been there since the ics branch. Checking "logcat | grep keylayout" will show you the keylayouts that are currently used on your device, but it won't include devices that aren't connected. The Generic.kl is most likely a fallback for a device with no dedicated keymap.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] psyke83:
I've queued callisto build #1141 to hopefully fix the lcd panel issue (linked in post #3). Please test and let me know if it fixes the problem.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] aldweb:
For those interested to test, link was not updated in post #3, but the URL is easy to figure out: http://jenkins.androidarmv6.org/job/cm-experimental/1141/
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] psyke83:
Strange, the link seems OK to me.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] aldweb:
Yes, problem solved, good job!

What do you want me to test now?

Logcat and dmesg still needed?
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] psyke83:
One more dmesg would be appreciated, just to make sure that the logspam from drivers has been reduced. Thanks!

If it's possible, I'd like you to focus on evaluating battery usage and stability over time (compared to the regular kernel). So if it's possible, continue using the build for a while and see how it behaves. I may need to run new builds if I find more things to be fixed, so keep an eye on this thread.

If there aren't any problems that are discovered (and can't be fixed), the new kernel seems like it will be suitable to be implemented in the official OTA builds. All that's needed is more testing to be sure everything's working well.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] aldweb:
Okay, I switch to this kernel 3 build as my daily driver, then reinstalling everything (gapps, S2E, French keyboard, Titanium restore for apps & data), and I will let you know.

Attached are logcat and dmesg from last reboot.

I have worked on slimming the ROM (similar to what I already did for the HTC Desire CM11 build - see http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=56228768&postcount=641), because I need a few things installed in the /system partition. I will post here once I am done checking how it impacts OTA updates. I might also write a recovery update script as updates are daily here :)
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] psyke83:
Delta OTA updates won't fail when a system file is removed - only modified files will cause the updater-script to abort. So you could make a recovery script to slim a build, where the updater-script simply deletes files you don't want included in the build. The only problem is this: when a user does an OTA update, depending on their current build vs latest available on the server, the updater may opt to download a full package instead of a delta one. A full package will undo all changes to /system (which is also a problem for your azerty patch).

A more permanent idea would be to create a userinit script that checks for files on each startup and deletes them. You could reuse parts of my update_gapps_links script from the SD-ext gapps package (at the very least, use the same method to remount /system as my script, as busybox's mount applet won't work properly). The advantage of the userinit script is that the changes will survive full OTA updates (so, it's also a good idea to implement something similar for your azerty patch, too).

I'd ask you not to make too many drastic changes if you're going to test the kernel3 build. We should have a baseline for comparison against the 2.6 kernel. I'm concerned about battery usage in the new kernel more than anything else.
[Samsung Galaxy 551 Callisto] Ansh2000:
I am using this build since four hours and found no issue in stability. Battery performance is better than regular kernel. 100 mb file taken one minute to copy file on sd card.

[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omersak:
So I've had a Z1 for a couple of days now and it's been great but yesterday, while playing RR3, I noticed that it got extremely hot and the game starting dropping frames - something that never happened in my time with the Xperia Z Ultra.

So, today, I ran 5 consecutive Antutu runs on it and compared the throttling performance to that of the HTC One:

First Run:

Xperia Z1: 32,490 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 9,606

HTC One: 26,655 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 6,778

Second Run:

Xperia Z1: 27,947 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 7,257

HTC One: 26,367 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 6,649

Third Run:

Xperia Z1: 27,375 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 7,226

HTC One: 26,468 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 6,670

Fourth Run:

Xperia Z1: 27,249 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 7,197

HTC One: 26,178 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 6,663

Fifth Run:

Xperia Z1: 26,959 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 7,191

HTC One: 26,168 overall, 3D Graphics (GPU): 6,658

Slightly concerned at the above because after 10-15 minutes of gameplay it regressed to S600 level performances and got extremely hot to the touch. Can anyone run consecutive benchmarks and verify this problem?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Haldi4803:
go and get Qualcomm Trepn profiler!

You can Log the CPU speed (and load, and gpu load a.m.m) and show them in a overlay. Thus you see exactly when it throttles and what, and how much.

But it does use a lot of CPU power, so benchmark results will drop highly!
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahomad:
first run

34056- 9771

second run

33687- 9599

third run

33049- 9357

fourth run

32544- 9372

fifth run

32222- 9612

there is a slight but not significant decrease in the overall score but not the GPU, which is acceptable as the phone keeps getting hotter and I have a case on it
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omersak:
Excellent results, those. Seems like the chip in mine might be a lemon because the score drastically drops after only the first run.

Unless it's really cold where you are? :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ahomad:
it is cold outside :D, but were I am (home) isn't and the phone was quite hot by the fifth run.

when you started the first run, was your phone already hot?
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omersak:
I actually waited till the next morning to do the runs to avoid it already being hot.

I just did it again, the phone lazing in the A/C for a few hours. First run was 33,251 and the second 28,236. Maybe I need to do a factory reset and try again. A few of the reviews did complain about the phone becoming very hot, so maybe a small number of the S800's out there aren't 100% efficient.

On a side note, after the second run above I put it in the freezer and I got my highest yet - 34,515 and a GPU score of 9624.
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danw_oz:
Do not trust bench marks they are mostly crock, all you need is the jvm to do a garbage collection and your results are toast.I have always had huge shift in numbers up and down all over the place with multiple runs, and it was not related to CPU throttling.

I know ME7 users can still use the toggle but people using MJ7 and MK2 can't, so this just gets rid of the subscription checks for all 3 and allows you to activate them from settings menu. For stock ME7, MJ7 and MK2 tw based roms only.

Note: This does not remove the on going wifi notification. This is mainly for people who have issues removing the ongoing wifi notification

1. Back up your rom via recovery. Make a back up of framework-res.apk if you wish

2. Flash in recovery or overwrite stock framework-res.apk in /system/framework with this one (doesn't work with odexed roms)

3. Wipe cache/dalvik in recovery

4. Reboot device.

For ME7 Download here

Enable all toggles + unlock native Tethering

If you have Safestrap installed and are on a MK2 or MJ7 rom/build you can flash the corresponding zip below and you will unlock native built-in tethering and also get all the toggles including the usually absent Wifi Hotspot widget. Both versions have been tested and confirmed to be work. This solves also enables all the missing toggles, not only the Wifi Hotspot toggle. Toggle issue = solved. If you don't have Safestrap then let me know, I'll write up a script to do the same thing if needed.

I have a MJ7 build with a MK2 based rom installed (Foxhound). When I flash the MK2 fix in safestrap recovery it indicates that it is actually installing the MJ7 toggle/tether fix, not MK2. When I reboot I am hung up on the Foxhound startup logo. What am I doing wrong?
