Major **** up !!

I just fastboot boot.img of an incomplete download. (Only 3mb downloaded)

Now fastboot mode is not recognised and only red led is coming on what should I do?

:(

EDIT: Got into 'fastboot' mode by pulling battery 'Power +vol up+down.

The boot.img uploaded is only 3mb it was not a corrupt download, so I guess the upload to server was not completed.

Close call.. Phew..
[Xperia Z Android Development] FakeSmile:
Is there any way to use twrp recovery with this kernel?

VOLUME UP + VOLUME DOWN + POWER - phone will turn off completely.

Then connect to PC in fastboot 'volume up + usb'

Currently running official CM11 nightlies and as far as i know official CM still uses 4.2.2 blobs. So in what way are the new blobs included in this build better? Is there any notable improvement?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
people have been saying battery life improvements in terms of screen on and standby.

but one thing is that the newer blobs cause problems with MP decision.

EDIT: MP decision works
[Xperia Z Android Development] arvinivra:
What is difference between official CM and this rom?
[Xperia Z Android Development] didicola:
i think the mp decision issue is solved as stated on the op
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
Read the op
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
so now that MP decision works, would you mind telling us the difference between your builds and thomas' builds? he also has the linaro implementation. thanks!
[Xperia Z Android Development] msc3169:
Thanks for the replies, decided to try this rom eventually. I must say so far so good. Battery life is definitely an improvement. Keep up the good work :thumbup:
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
he is building with linaro, but not with -O3, strict-aliasing and other flags i use.

basically he is building with linaro, but not the correct way. he made small patches along when the build breaks, using the "raw" linaro toolchain.

atm i am testing the best toolchain combo, to see whats best (kernel = linaro 4.10, sabermod 4.10, boosted-tc 4.10 | rom = boosted-tc 4.8, sabermod 4.8. linaro 4.8) .. you can always check with cpu spy xda edition or similars to see toolchain used on kernel.

Usb otg doesn't seem to be working. Got a reboot as soon as i connected my music player to the phone. I'm running ART runtime.
[Xperia Z Android Development] secondkai:
Does infected slimkat build use the same kernel as this cm11 infected build with the newer blob, fix mp decission etc? Or does it use the same kernel as official slimkat? Sorry for ot...
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
Don't support questions related to ART runtime, sorry.

no. slim has their one apq8064 kernel, different from cm. and goes both ways, this kernel wont work on slim builds.
[Xperia Z Android Development] msc3169:
[MENTION=1077833]infected_[/MENTION]

Sorry for that, but I can confirm the same behaviour in Dalvik runtime also.
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
happens on officials?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Techpenguin5:
I can report official cm11 has no issues with USB otg at least in my case using an external DAC has no issues and as a matter of fact the DAC as well as my ps3 controller work perfectly with otg on your ROM infected

[Xperia Z Android Development] Techpenguin5:
Just clean flashed the latest build to my XZ and can I say, infected your ROM is by far the smoothest I have ever tried on any phone

And to see for myself I changed my runtime to art and tested USB otg not a single issue works flawlessly. The only issue I can see right now with the ROM is the lack of mhl support.

So thanks so much infected, absolutely amazing keep up the good work :)

nightly build 20140423

v1 - kernel code compiled with sabermod arm-eabi-4.10.0 (201404) && rom code compiled with sabermod arm-linux-androideabi-4.8.3 (201404)

v2 - kernel code compiled with linaro arm-eabi-4.10.0 (201404) && rom code compiled with sabermod arm-linux-androideabi-4.8.3 (201404)

v3 - kernel code compiled with boosted-tc arm-eabi-4.10.0 (201404) && rom code compiled with sabermod arm-linux-androideabi-4.8.3 (201404)

please leave feedback regarding which build you prefer... use it for a few days. i'll compile again at the end of the week, with the more voted method.

regards.

edit: poll added.
[Xperia Z Android Development] Hellscythe:
Hey thanks, could you perhaps tell us the differences and advantages/disadvantages of each? :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
the toolchains, they all do the same job, with the same parameters. increase performance, battery life, and smoothness.

but only using a build in a daily basis, then you can notice a difference on the smoothness, fluidity, and responsiveness of the ROM, compiled with the different toolchains.. battery and benchmarks also count, obvious.

thats why i said, to try them for a few day's, and i am going to do the same, to see which is the best combo to use to build.

if i go randomly use a different toolchain everytime, i get no results/feed about the build.

regards.

just use them and vote on the poll !! :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] achih121:
My opinion:

Try V3 first --> Laggy... dropout in one hour...

Then V1 --> amazing performance

--> good battery consumption (standby, ~1% per hour )

will keep using V1 for 2-3 days, report later...

:good::good::good::good::good:
[Xperia Z Android Development] golfgtiedition30:
Version 1 gets my vote so far. Its very fast and responsive... Awesome work [MENTION=440006]iNFECTED[/MENTION] ;)
[Xperia Z Android Development] jankhner:
Not see very big difference between v1 and v2. Both are very good!!
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
users that have tested the builds, please vote on the poll.

i need to know what build you guys prefer, so i start building the one you choose.

regards.
[Xperia Z Android Development] jpacho89:
I've been using v1 for last day.

Everything seems very smooth, and battery life is even better than before. About 5 hours of screen-on-time and ~16h of standby. Data and wifi always on and location via wifi. Using dalvik, will try art later.

Thanks [MENTION=1077833]infected_[/MENTION] for sharing your hard work, congratulations!

[Xperia Z Android Development] macia10:
is there any list of cherrypicks used in this rom?
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
same as official CM11.0 .. except custom compiled, updated blobs and kernel (improved).
[Xperia Z Android Development] macia10:
Ahh cause I've looked at OP and there is:

-O3 optimizations
strict-aliasing rules
custom performance flags
[B]+30 cherry-picks used[/B]
white kk UI

And just wondered what are those :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
those are the cherry-picks i use to custom compile. without them it wouldn't be possible use the custom toolchains and its different versions, strict-aliasing, -O3, and some extra flags.

Anyone tested this with new Meow-Kernel?
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
this kernel its better and more updated than MeoW.. :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] Raider0001:
that is set up for safty and stability ? :eek:
[Xperia Z Android Development] jpacho89:
Yeahh but MeoW's kernel has some features that some of us love, such us OC, UV, more governors, etc.

It would be fantastic if you could include any of them in your kernel, specially UV, the one that I most miss, because your kernel is more updated and compiled with newer tools.

Enviado desde mi C6603 mediante Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Android Development] naitik2012:
yeah....

But Meow kernel has so many features like OC , UV , Sound control that y so many ppls prefer Meow kernel.

if possible can U add features like OC , UV , Sound control in ur kernel so that we (mostly i ) dnt need to search anywhere for CM kernel , just open ur thread download CM ROM download ur kernel and thats it :D , if u dont wont to add it on Ur CM rom just provide it separately and watch ur download count :D as i told u on PM (i think u dont like PM's :p Sry for that )

Thanks :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
yes.. besides android, i am also an extreme enthusiast overclocker .. :cowboy:

you can check my benchmarks and records achieved until a year back:

http://hwbot.org/user/infected_/

3770k now is at 4.6Ghz ... decided not to be on the "red line" always (1.3v), and its more cooler, since temps raised here in Portugal.

4.6ghz = 1.26v vcore, temps while compiling (with -j16) reach tops of 57 - 59C, watercooled of course. no way you would get those temps with that vcore, on air cooling, here in Portugal now.

stability checked with 8h of prime95 (6GB, blend + small fft's), 4h of OCCT and 1h of LinX with full memory used.

regards.

ps: i am a stability freak also... :D
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
kernel on my builds is at it is, and not going to be changed. [MENTION=2228255]thomas1991_12[/MENTION] done a fantastic job with it...

[MENTION=1077833]infected_[/MENTION] i have tried this ROM and this is awesome .. just wanted to ask how can i delete the default Google Now Launcher as I am using Nova Launcher :(
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
Delete GoogleHome.apk from Gapps package, and flash.

If already installed, use TB and freeze it (select "use always" on nova first)
[Xperia Z Android Development] -iNCEPTiON-:
I have installed ES File Explorer and switched on Root Explorer and still it cannot delete that file :( it says Read Only file System :(

PS : ITS DONE :) AWESOME ROM :)
[Xperia Z Android Development] hudsonhicks:
I think i will stick with original infected kernel.

Been using it for a couple of weeks now and very stable. When i used Meow with Cm11 i was getting crashes & sometimes reboots all the time especially with the camera.
[Xperia Z Android Development] -iNCEPTiON-:

[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
did you made a clean/fresh install or flashed over a nightly?
[Xperia Z Android Development] Techpenguin5:
This is a Milestone build so i grabbed the latest gapps and clean flashed of course wiping everything including format of system cache data and boot. I have flashed the build 3 times now issue persists
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
post here a screen of the page with build number and date of build.

[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
how could you be using something that i hadn't released (M6 "v2" ) at the time you posted? :p

anyway, glad its solved.

[Xperia Z Android Development] Techpenguin5:
Oh so sorry i thought you were referring to the regular M6 build, Awesome i will flash the new v2 thanks
[Xperia Z Android Development] hudsonhicks:
Sorry for my confusion but what does "SNAPSHOT M6" mean exactly as opposed to the standard date-stamped releases?
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
snapshots are monthly builds compiled from CM stable branch.

nightly builds (standard date-stamped releases), are compiled daily, but can have a bug or two, since they are "test" builds to achieve a snapshot or even final.
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
I switched from slimkat to newest cm snapshot just for testing a bit, but as in slim in settings my phone number shown as "unknown". Maybe that's an old bug in all cm based rom's? (on latest stock i never had this...)

Not very problematic, only thing is that my provider app couldn't recognize my sim and didn't work.....any idead how this coul be fixed ?

thx
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
flash build again, wipe cache and dalvik, and reboot. it solves for me.
[Xperia Z Android Development] nihilista:
No, didn't solve, but i crashed my phone, black screen and nothing.....but so i had to flash stock rom and that shows no number too now....don't know, maybe that has something to do with unlocked bootloader, i don't know. Sometimes i wish i had my old sgs2 back ;) so easy and working onandroid backups....now every restore didn't work....btw, learned never trust some backup...

not sure if next build will have all the new governors and schedulers...

if the majority of users want all that options, please let me know. otherwise, ill keep stock governors and schedulers, but kernel always updated.

please leave feedback regarding this. no need to make another poll...
[Xperia Z Android Development] jpacho89:
I prefer you to include the new governors. That way, everyone could choose wich one they want to use.

Thanks for including them in new build, it would be incredible if you could implement UV too, that would make this ROM the most battery friendly by far, because I think it already is even without it.

Enviado desde mi C6603 mediante Tapatalk
[Xperia Z Android Development] deepongi:
thanks for the feedback.

yes, you have a point, users could choose which governor/scheduler they like, but they are so many, that users will loose countless days trying them all .. :D

its fine with me. if all agree, next build will include all extra governors/schedulers then.. :)

hi guys, im a bit confused ... do i need an unlocked boot loader for these cm 11 roms ? or not ?

thx
[Xperia Z Android Development] venky716:
Yes you need unlocked bootloader for any AOSP, CM11, OMNI etc based ROMs.

Just because it's in 'Android development' doesn't mean it works on locked bootloader.:good:

Original Android development - Kernels, Official ROMs like PA, OMNI, CM etc

Android Development- Derivative ROMs, unofficial ROMs, Stock based ROMs etc.
[Xperia Z Android Development] optiplex2012:
ok thx for the quick reply :)

is there any issues if i unlock the boot loader ? do i loose any features ?

thx
[Xperia Z Android Development] FateNozomi:
If you're on stock, you'll lose bravia engine so make sure you backup your TA partition before you unlock so that in case you want to be on locked bootloader again, it'll be good as new!
[Xperia Z Android Development] optiplex2012:
ok i already backed it up, i understand the DRM keys are in that TA partition

i understood i loose the bravia engine and risk when using FOTA

since i never use FOTA i dont care

i have a customised rom based on latest build of jb 4.3 with bravia engine 2 enabled, i disabled it to see if i notice any changes in video and pics

but i dont see any difference :cyclops:

in case of custom rom based on sony's stock i still loose the bravia ?

do i need it at all if i dont see difference ???
[Xperia Z Android Development] FateNozomi:
I think it only works on the stock album app. I do notice the difference but it's kinda unnatural on some pictures. Yes you do still lose bravia on custom stock rom unless you flash a mod for it which can be found under the apps section. I personally think you do not need it XD unless you really want to see your pictures on your phone with bravia so badly.
[Xperia Z Android Development] zeroed:
I've been using M6 build v2 since 5 may,it was well worth replacing the stock rom.Phone sleeps like a baby,battery usage is super smooth,phone itself just is fast twice than stock.So backup your TA just in case,then go for it.
