Maybe it is just the already known bug http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52666637&postcount=214 , http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52852964&postcount=1041

On older kernel builds it was intelliactive or smartassv2 which was shown.

How did you fix Wifi not working after kernel flash ?

Its the only thing that keeps me from releasing my kernel :D
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Ashray_Vk:
Won't flashing the WiFi modules work ?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] llewelld:
I also have the issue of the audio values changing around as well.. so it definitely seems that there is a link between the issues..

Is there any other app that can apply per core governor control ? (other than pimp my z1 app) I have had a look at faux kernel enhancement app/ trickster mod .. but these doent seem to have per core governor control.

If they don't.. can I use a script (ie just run the equivalent busybox command) and set it manually?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
This problem noticed by Androguide.fr too.. When people just used to flash the boot.img via fastboot.. He added later on waln.ko module in Pimped Kernal zip file and recommend everyone to flash the zip via CWM
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Furma:
i flashed this kernel and then installed ParanoidAndroid 4.4 [RC2] rom, but when i try to enable double tap 2 wake from your app, it says its not supported

how to enable that feature?

tnx
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
This is kernel related - if the touch wake driver isn't there, well good luck in enabling it..
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
Has somebody already tested the kernel on an CM11 4.4.4?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] llewelld:
Paranoid android includes a stock kernel of its own.. so if you flashed Pimped first, then the rom, you will not be using pimped kernel.

Can you look in settings about phone, and confirm you are using pimped kernel. IF not, reflash pimped kernel. You need reflash the kernel if you ever drity flash an update to PA otherwise you will be using the PA/CM kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
The correct order of flashing is

1. ROM

2. Other stuff with kernel / Google Apps

3. Kernel

4. Other stuff without kernel

5. SuperUser

Edit:

I am now testing PAC 4.4.4 with latest PK. Booted normally, no problems on the first look.

Why this kernel doesn't work with Mokee rom?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Love these posts lol. What does it do/not do? Is mokee caf? Etc etc.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
There are no stupid questions, just stupid answers....

There is no information in the OP which ROMs, ROM bases or drivers (CAF?) are supported and how could you use the search function if you do not know the exact detail you are looking for?

I also have a question. I am no programmer, so maybe I am wrong, but....if the ROM builders begin to use the new Sony GIT sources, would Pimped Kernel become incompatible to the ROMs or does that not affect it?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] husky69:
Hm, had to ditch Pimped Kernel completely because of heavy battery drain, frequent random reboots (especially with a bit of system load - Titanium Backup wouldn't finish successfully because of this) and lost default settings upon EVERY reboot regardless of reason for the reboot).

Had to reinstall Slimkat 5.10 completely [emoji35]
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] llewelld:
If you look at pimped kernel, the default voltages out of the box are substantially undervolted compared to slim or doomkernel or stock.

I think this has a lot to do with why pimped crashes for some people.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
My answer wasn't stupid. Without information the community can't help we don't poses crystal balls. However those who are seeking for help can atleast read the damn first few posts. The tittle States CM do does the changelog. CM builds are caf based. Or use search function as well...

To your second question it doesn't make a difference. Sony had released the source before hand and, at least, CM had merged it in ages ago. What Sony did is provide the source code through github who have makes the process much easier.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] jenova941:
Pimped was working just perfectly for me until the latest releases of Carbon Unofficial and Vanir dropped, and then it suddenly stopped working. Flashing the standard or light versions of Pimped atop a fresh installation of Carbon/Vanir resulted in the device getting stuck forever at boot on the Sony: Pimped Kernel screen.

The devs claim that this was due to certain recently implemented commits which seem to have broken support for Pimped, so it would be great if you guys could update it accordingly so that it starts working again, because Pimped has some essential features that no ROM seems to have by default. :)

Thanks a lot.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Langes:
Same situation with PAC.

Lots of changes to the CM kernel the last few days, so I guess OP needs to rebase.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
Lots of changes and they break recovery with twrp. Still trying to wrap my head around the possible culprit :@
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Langes:
Good luck with that, many commits to comb through
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
The version I use is still working. Btw, why isn't Pimped Kernel integrated into PAC? It is full of great features and would be a benefit for PAC.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Langes:
Because I haven't tried to build PAC with this kernel yet ;) Might look into it this weekend if I get some spare time.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
Would be really great :good:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] CappyT:
[MENTION=3877985]prbassplayer[/MENTION]

It would be really great even for slimkat...

Can't the features of this kernel be implemented inside the slimkat for z1? It can be a "device related change"

It would be awesome. In fact, it will save more battery, get more control over the components... The people love this...

So please... At least think about it... [emoji16]

No. Slim kernel has its own features and optimizations. I control what gets merged or doesn't get merged. Better that way.

Edit: I'd like to point out our borrowed a good deal from this kernel, and many other kernel devs (Franco, faux, imoseyon, showp, etc) my kernel is by no means original but I prefer to have certain control over it. And in the end kernel reflects mostly on what I use / prefer (mostly)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] lil_devil:
Wanted to know if i can flash this kernel on my stock android 4.4.4 ()14.4.A.0.108) on z1. Locked bootloader and rooted.

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Nope it's only for AOSP based Roms. For stock you might want to use one of doomlords kernels.

Gesendet von meinem Xperia Z1 mit Tapatalk
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] lil_devil:
Thanks for the reply. Maybe unrelated, but could you please tell me if doomkernel requires an unlocked bootloader. it's posted as a requirement but i wonder that since i have root and recovery, could i still flash it through my recovery.?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
Try and have a bootloop..
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] lil_devil:
Subtle aren't you. Anyways had tried before you said but flashed back the stock kernel from the ftf so no worries.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Custom kernels always require unlocked boot loader (UB).

Kernels with only changed recovery not often require UB.

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] lil_devil:
Thanx gary. The thing is i had an unlocked bootloader with my xperia arc. With my Z1 it's onli now that i have started with the mods but find it a mess with the ta backup and stuff. Will unlock my bootloader since now i'm up to speed.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
For what you need speed???

Honestly speaking, I don't know a single game which makes full use of the GPU/CPU. Hell, i run MC3/Dead Space with only 50% cpu speed. Ofc for I/o relevant operations it's something different, but who really makes hard I/O work with a phone?!? I think from 1000users maybe only 1person?!?

And for benchmarks??? Who cares for a p-meter??

And for smoother work of phone a change of the gov/io is mostly enough.

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Androguide.fr:
Here's a build that works with Omni, I think I found the faulty commit, the kernel panics were network-related.

good to know :eek:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Poesini:
People sometimes misunderstand the goal to have the fastest available, because more speed will be negligible but you should consider as you have more speed, you can underclock/undervolt and/or use more conservative governors/schedulers or something similar to save battery

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] jenova941:
It would be awesome if we could have a rebased update to this kernel so that we can use it with the latest CM/Carbon/Vanir etc. builds. Support for the current build seems to be broken for a while now, guess they made a lot of changes to their bases as well. Requesting the OP to kindly look into the matter. :) Thanks a ton!

Isn't there battery drain when using dt2w ?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tcchuin:
yes, but i think they are referring to 4.4.4 stock source which is not available on github yet.

---------- Post added at 11:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:31 AM ----------

yeap. the battery drain is not fixed yet.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
I do not think that battery drain with DT2W is a bug. It seems to me, to be just necessary for the function. Because if the phone would go into deep sleep nothing would check if somebody is touching the screen for a wakeup call. So DT2W has to prevent the mobile from going into deep sleep which results in a significant higher power consumption on screen off.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] tcchuin:
well it can be done without the power consumption if the display panel supports it and we have proper driver which supports interrupt(I'm not sure if we have those, but it's definitely doable if the panel support and we have the driver).
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] prbassplayer:
You are correct 14.4.A.0.xxx is 4.4.4. Pretty sure 14.3 was merged already.

I don't think it's that easy. If he merges in all of the ION, CMA and mdss commits twrp breaks. I personally haven't figured out why it breaks.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] m666p:
does pimped kernel support any 4.4.4 roms, tried it with pac rom latest nightly and it didnt boot

anyways which roms are you guys using with this kernel
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
I think Pimped Kernel works with CM11 (4.4.4) builds.. Try it!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] borisb:
Noob questions.

1.Do I need to update firmware to use 4.4.4 on c6906.

2.Also. Can I use pimped with slim based ROMs?

3. How much does double tap drain the battery.

Thanks.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] blueether:
for all those that are having boot issues on 4.4.4 builds of ROMs before the 2nd should still work, that is the case on the Z-Ultra anyway.

I'm going to try and report Pimped onto the latest CM kernel this afternoon. Will be intresting to see if it all goes well, I'm not too worried about the lack of TWRP as I never build this kernel with it in.

[MENTION=4752917]Androguide.fr[/MENTION] I don't know if you would be interested in ang of my changes to build-kernel.sh, they are ZU centric... https://github.com/BlueEther/build-kernel

About DT2W. On the Z-Ultra there is little to no battery drain, but the TS is very different to the Z1 family - we don't need wakelocks etc.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Instead if TWRP why not using CWM??? Maybe with cwm everything might work? I prefer cwm over twrp,but that's only my personal liking.

[MENTION=4752917]Androguide.fr[/MENTION] I have merged the latest kernel from cm-11 into my port and all looks good so far (see https://github.com/BlueEther/android_kernel_sony_msm8974/tree/BluePimp-4.4.4)

If anyone wants I can build a honami version of this, I cant test it though, won't support it and cant guarantee that everything (or anything) will work as expected.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] gallardo5:

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] blueether:
UNTESTED and unofficial

4.4.4 build of PimpedKernel

This is backported from the Z-Ultra to the Z1 I can not guarantee that any feature will work, or even that it will boot cleanly. You have been warned, it is not my fault if this kills you cat or get you pregnant.

Only flash if you have a 'out' plan, make sure that you have a nandroid before you flash and a working kernel/recovery to fastboot flash if the **** hits the fan (I cant believe that that has been edited on here, it is part of our language here in NZ)

At the moment this has diverged from from the Z1 build, in the fact that I'm using much newer base kernel from CM. This version has slightly fewer mods and is the port of the new 'slim' version

The .108 fixes from sony don't look to be in the base cm-11.0 kernel yet. This new build should boot any new aosp/cm based rom from after about the 3rd of July, but will probably fail on any builds from before that date. It may not work well on SlimKat and CandyKat.

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] blueether:
everything that was in the new slim light version (once_again branch). it was built with the cm 11 patches and a couple of small fixes but does include the dt2w patch for the ZU (not that the z1 will use the TS driver)

I have merged the latest CM sources & fixed the reboot issue (thanks to [MENTION=4819888]oshmoun[/MENTION]).
