Is there any Dev working on a KitKat ROM ?
[Xperia Play General] ch3mn3y:
There are roms for other xperias 2011 so it would be easier to port them than build new one from nothing, but without kernel its impossible.

However now they try to make 10.1 work on this kernel, if everything will be ok, there will be possibility to port cm11

Also, Spizzy01 was working very hard getting the touchscreen working but haven't heard anything since NaA fixed touchscreen. NaA said he would leave the rest of the problems for us to fix. I haven't seen any posts from wedgess, doomlord or any other of the professional xperia play developers. Looks like we need some new blood to step up and get this figured out.

edit: not sure if this applies to us but if so then at least its good news.

I know but I dont know where I can start :D
[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
Well if you were to start now, we might have a kernel in the year 2016. :p

If you don't know where to start, then unfortunately you don't have the extensive knowledge and information needed to build and fix kernels. It takes months and years to learn this sort of thing, and there are no step by step instructions.

Start here:

http://source.android.com/source/building-kernels.html

and when you have 10,000 questions about kernel develpment (which all people that are starting out do), please don't post them here in this thread. :)

1) Congratulations .. almost 3 years since I've been with my Xperia Play .. and since I knew that was not officially would update it anyway .. I keep hoping that this time came.

2) I wanted to know if there are any available link and tutorial on how to flash this kernel, and some 4.4 rom to try ..?

I hope you do not mind my question .. I'm very excited about this news: D

He said that he pushed sources to github so you could compile it yourself, or wait just a little bit longer until he pushes it to a cm11 branch for our device. I'm sure he will create a thread with instructions as soon as it's ready.

[Xperia Play General] smashingeeks:
You will have to use a JB kernel first to flash CM 10.1 by mike, and then flash the kernel 3.4 to make the ROM boot. The 3.4 kernel doesn't have any recovery installed.
[Xperia Play General] pedyvirus:
it has recovery installed

you can etner recovery using r key with xperia play

[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
Because jb 4.1 is supposed to run with 3.0 kernel. 4.2 introduced the 3.4 kernel, which i assume works with 4.1 to a certain point. Until now we've been using a 2.6 kernel with back-ported features from 3.4 and other tweaks to make everything work as it does.
[Xperia Play General] XDM inc:
ooh, well can we just backport a little to fix the current bugs like wifi or it's not that easy?

I don't have much knowledge in kernel development, but I'd assume it's a process of trial and error using dmesg and logcats to find the errors. Tedious and time consuming.

incase you dont know you do know atleast 99.99999% of people in XDA own a GSM device and most forums are for GSM right? If you want CDMA development go upgrade to like a high end CDMA or wait forever until this actually works on GSM before you complain

[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
Yeah I thought it might have been a typo, was wondering why mdpi would slow down our development :p i don't think he would ask for donations across the Xperia 2011 range just to fund development for one device, that should be left to the devices forum whether he gets the specific phone or not.
[Xperia Play General] krchi:
i know we have hdpi but i think thats a reason cause if you read the Xperia Overlay thread you will see the reason
[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
That's a pretty weak reason considering he was given an xplay and presumably various other devices by people in their respective forums. He should ask for a donate version for devices he does not have if this is this case.
[Xperia Play General] krchi:
he doesnt even have a device he only has a xperia play if im correct he builds he roms and gets it tested by someone and the thing is that no one wants to donate a device would you donate one? no. right? so thats why
[Xperia Play General] saqibkhan:
where is this Thread heading to.. what about the forgotten 3.x kernel ? :(
[Xperia Play General] Frutak:
Can you create new thread?? :) this theraed only for 3.x kernel!
[Xperia Play General] krchi:
This is a discussion not a dev related no need for a new thread...
[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
So the one device that was kindly given to him was from this forum, yet xplay is the last device to be supported. Yet he's already developed the firmware most other Xperia 2011 devices? And he needs money to develop for another device? I'd donate towards an xperia play if he needed one but he's not getting a penny as is.
[Xperia Play General] krchi:
He doesnt test his builds i think someone did but i think he owns a xperia ray as he shown it in his video of xperia overlay but you do know that we have a zeus board right?
[Xperia Play General] korrectmethod:
Yes, I know our board is different. I also know he was donated an xperia play so he could develop for our device. You would think having the device would significantly speed up development as compared to having to communicate back and forth test builds with somebody.

Hey Mike You can sometimes write how it goes. Everyone is looking forward: 3 :D

[Xperia Play General] Frutak:
Hmm where is the checklist?:D
[Xperia Play General] Flaîm:
there is none. it was a question for that kind of feedback about the status from mike
[Xperia Play General] mikeioannina:
*Charging

*Front buttons

*WiFi

Charging is hard for me to fix since my device is broken and doesn't charge.

Front buttons is hard for me to fix since I can't locate where the problem is

WiFi & BT is going to take some time because we need to port newer drivers
[Xperia Play General] CriGiu:
I think [MENTION=4347494]Spizzy01[/MENTION] has found a way to fix charging, as stated here:

So maybe you should contact him :)

Regarding buttons, I know I am a noob, but what about using stock rom's keylayouts folder (inside /system/usr) which contains mapping of some buttons, including gamepad? Or maybe it has to be linked to the kernel
[Xperia Play General] mikeioannina:
It's a kernel driver issue. Only the 4 front buttons are affected, the work when you boot and after a while they stop responding.

EDIT: [MENTION=4347494]Spizzy01[/MENTION] can you share your changes?
[Xperia Play General] Spizzy01:
How long are we talking before the buttons stop responding? I don't believe I've experienced this issue on my device yet... Although it has been a while since I was looking at this.

As for what I did to fix the charging issue, I swapped the device configuration used to the Phoenix board one and toy'd around with that a bit. My aim at that time was to try and fix the touch screen issue, so I didn't really pay attention to what I did that ended up fixing the charging issue.

I'll try and have another look though, but since nAa fixed the touch screen issue I have since attempted to start from where he left off with his sources - and even with that I haven't been giving it much attention since I don't even have a boot image yet.

Regarding the buttons again - surely something must be reported within logcat that suggests the front buttons are no longer functioning correctly? Do we have any information to point us in the right direction?
[Xperia Play General] krchi:
just use osb for the time being maybe?
[Xperia Play General] Spizzy01:
Navigation shouldn't be too much of an issue anyway, but if you wanted to use the on screen buttons there is nothing stopping anyone on the Kernel side - the change would need to be made in the framework-res.apk.

Edit: Compiling now anyway to see if I can help in some way.
[Xperia Play General] krchi:
maybe thats why google went to osb to make their lives easier
[Xperia Play General] Bakisha:
Didn't nAa fix charging? I swear i saw something in source code related to that

https://github.com/nobodyAtall/msm7x30-3.4.x-nAa/commit/74cd16a2126f78cd511675012fbd0393dbb87e8c

As for front buttons, it happends after 40 of 50 pressed buttons (it happends in recovery too, so it is kernel, not rom related)
