slowly step down voltages, dont imediatly volt, that is dangerous

[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] TheoDores:
Hello guys,

I have questions,

after I flash this kernel and there is new version of kernel with new build number, what should I do?

Flash new firmware (with flashtool) and then flash new kernel OR

just flash this new kernel with new build number (I guess it will lead to error, right?)?

I hope you understand my question :p
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] pdash79:
Regarding my post that i mentioned it totally unacceptable for you to release V7.
[MENTION=2784807]DooMLoRD[/MENTION], you completely misread my post.

I meant it to be more like an appreciation for your work rather than complaint for the quick development work that you are doing.

It was on a funny note that i wrote it as i was really excited for the new update.

Please do not take it otherwise.

I, for one, would not mind flashing an update every hour if you were to release new versions, so to speak.

Totally appreciate the work that you are doing for the entire community.

You do it because you like and devote so much of your personal time for everyone.

I can never thank you enough for your work that you are doing.

Please accept my apologies if my post hurt you in any way.

Which rom are you using bro?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Lostatsea23:
I know this is a silly question but is there anyway we could ever get root without bootloader unlock? I don't care about warranty as I bought a squqretrade one so I'm just curious. I really want root and this kernel
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Envious_Data:
Currently not

If people realy need ill get to work on figuring out a way to root unless doomlord wants to find a exploit
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Lostatsea23:
Thanks for the response. Do these exploits typically get found? Never owned a Sony device so not sure about any of that. I know Samsung devices are a pita though
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] tpcastelli:
How is everyone getting to 402 before flashing v6 or v7 ...i know unlocked bl blocks companion and ota? ...and thanks for the mention DooMLoRD ..cheers :)
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Envious_Data:
Usualy, i dont think there are any exploits for 4.4.2 or at least known

The only way i see rooting with a locked bootloader is to created a prerooted system only FTF
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] stanley08:
Ok, sorry for going 'noob' on u guys. I'm kinda new to Sony. But not doomlord. He is a legend. Lol.

So, if i have. 69 ROM on my phone, i can flash either v5 (based on. 69) or v6 (based on. 402).

But if i have. 402 ROM, I'm only allowed to flash v6 or newer but not an older kernel?

Is this right? Did i make any sense to u? Lol.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] dany20mh:
You have to flash the kernel that is the match with your firmware on the device, some people did flash the opposite like using a .402 on .69 firmware and they phone didn't boot up.

So just be careful for what you have and what you flashing.

Right now if you have .402 firmware, you must install v6 and after until another firmware gets release.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
there is no guarantee... it could be a day or two, may be a month, or may be a few months... its hard to say...

if u are on .402 then directly flash to v07 (latest)... yes unlocked bootloader blocks OTA... to use PC Suite to update just relock bootloader using FlashTool...

i want to!

there are bunch of others who are also working on it!

there is no such thing as a "pre-rooted FTF", atleast not since 2011...

its a matching game...

match the kernel version to firmware u have and flash that...

ideally once newer firmware is available and kernel sources are released, i will update kernel to match firmware and add more features...

older firmwares will have lesser number of features in kernel...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] stanley08:
Lol. Thanks. I think it was pretty clear dat matching them will work. I was more focused on crossmatching. Hehe. But all cleared now.

And the Advanced stock kernel thing? Lol.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Advanced Stock Kernel, as the name suggests, has the core kernel (zImage) from pure stock sony kernel along with CWM recovery and some more changes in ramdisk (init.d support, reboot-remount fix)
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] stanley08:
Oh! Which means this is the first step after Unlocking BL also the last step before flashing SuperSU zip AND / OR a 'Safe-place' you can fall back to if anything goes wrong with flashing a custom kernel. Yes?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Mr.R™:
Not anytime soon, I'd just go ahead you could be waiting months/years otherwise

Edit: sorry Tapatalk didn't update and I replied to a post 2 pages back lol
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] cdorepm:
can someone share me recommended fauxclock setting for z2 with this kernel please
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Try it as it comes for a while, kernels nowadays are made to "flash & forget". Enable heat throttling tweak & fast charge perhaps, but leave the rest as it boots.

Every phone & our individual needs are different anyway, you'll have to come up with your preferences, the ones that suit you & your phone.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
it will be a good idea if someone starts a thread to share the setting which worked for them...

that way users can benefit from others experience...

if someone creates and maintains such a thread then i can link to it from OP...

so who is interested?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] cdorepm:
so how much do i need to set for that heat throttling tweak?

sorry, still new to all this stuff
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] nreuge:
I was about to propose it to you :)

In which section should it be done ? General ? Xperia Z2 Original Android Development ? Elsewhere ?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
General section
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] nreuge:
Done!
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] tpcastelli:
On re-lock bl in flashtools power on just vibrates with no boot. If unlock in flashtools I get a reboot of device. Any clue why I cant reboot after re-locking for .402 update?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Lostatsea23:
We should recommend color settings or do you guys not care about that? Lol

---------- Post added 30th May 2014 at 12:06 AM ---------- Previous post was 29th May 2014 at 11:15 PM ----------

Just saying. This kernel is amazing.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
After relock if you are on custom kernel then device will not boot... You need Flash pure stock kernel (kernel.sin) using FlashTool to get device to boot....
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
hey everyone!

please use the following thread to Share your settings!

[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] neyz:
Hello and thanks for your work.

I'm no expert but after flashing v7 on a 402 firmware my wifi connection was completely unstable. It's like if it kept switching between LTE / wifi

also the device seemed to get pretty hot and battery was draining quickly.

any thoughts ?

thanks !
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
FYI

the Z2 (msm8974ab) has 15 different pre-set voltage tables!!! these get selected based on your chip capability!

https://github.com/DooMLoRD/android...mmit/bf527a90dddff265257005603edd6ba0ea052a82

so its very much possible that your chip might be able to function by default at much lower voltages as compared to others!

[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Lostatsea23:
Is there anyway to make the kernel sleep better? I have about 3.5 percent an hour over night which is definitely not bad...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Vangelis13:
Kernel sleeps fine. You should rather check your apps / wakelocks..
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
i hate myself -.- and i love the doomkernel :D looking forwar to playing around with the Z2 !

P.S is there an easy way to figure out what psv my SoC has ? assuming Doomkernel V7 doesn't have standard voltage but undervolted...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Yes you can

adb shell
su
dmesg | grep PVS
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
1|root@D6503:/ #

But Trickster says i have 1010mV on 2457mhz

According to your table this is PVS12
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
See this
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] rappa619:
Does a full wipe in CWM Recovery not work on the z2 since the kernel and recovery are together? Like in storage if you wipe /system and /data to fully wipe the phone and then install fresh. Would this just kick you out of recovery, making you have to flash the recovery using fastboot again?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] nilism:
I've been b meaning to ask:

Is there TWRP support for this kernel and if so does anyone know if team win is supporting on their end yet? I couldn't figure much out.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] [NUT]:
Not that hard to find, really.

Anyway... what would 'official' support matter in the case of TWRP?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] nilism:
In that case which TWRP recovery do I need to use? I only know of their official stuff http://teamw.in/twrp_view_all_devices

Somewhat of a noob that way I guess.

---------- Post added at 10:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------

God damn it Doom you are murdering sh!t!

TWRP unofficial compile here by Doom
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
Nope.

And yes. Root is available.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Execute the command after a fresh reboot
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Try this out

It's under Memory Manager in Fauxclock
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] nreuge:
ASAIK, there is no active swap partition by default. So, I don't see the tip.

I have no lag.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Mr.R™:

[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] se1000:
2.7.0.0 is part of the kernel package, no need to flash separately like other devices. Follow the instructions to boot your recovery of choice.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
For those who keep sending me P.M.

I will not be releasing any kernel for AOSP/AOKP/CM... those ROMs are themselves work in progress... no point adding to the confusion when the devs are trying to make ROM stable...

btw.. none of the FreeXperia team members, AOSP/AOKP/CM maintainers have released the ROM to community...

DooMLoRD
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Mr.R™:
I understand but too bad, I come from the s3 and there was loads of kernel choices available for aosp?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] reignzy:
And how "old" is the s3 compared to the z2?

That's why...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Mr.R™:
S3 had multiple aosp kernels from the beginning eg siyah
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Envious_Data:
Devs for devices are different, xperias usualy lack CM/aosp kernels as they arent realy needed or some people just dont want to mske any
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:

[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] neyz:

From what I read intelli plug is a more effective cpu on / off management module is that right?

What about the wlan modules?

Would love to get some more information about what can be done.

you are welcome.. i always try my best to make these phones perform better than what they were built to do :D
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Envious_Data:
Hah its good to hear your optimism

Could you explain how the GPU generaly works with the Z2, i dont see a 2D clock in many apps
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
making those Snapdragons fly higher and faster xD

Intelliplug hm ?.... great... 10 Governors (performance not included) and 2 Hotplug drivers... i'm gonna be busy for a while benching all those.

Don't even want to think about all the GPU governors...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
hi mate!

you are from the Xperia Z section right?

hope u can create similar thread for the Z2 like the one u did for the Z :)
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] nreuge:
There is an issue with governor Smartass v2, freq. stays always at max...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Haldi4803:
Jup, planning on that :) and because my X Z is useless without a simcard now i can do lots of Overclocking/undervolting battery tests :)

P.S Reboot did the thing!

PVS 11 it says.

P.P.S

Does Ondemand have min CPU on Touchscreen action? "input_boost" 1'190'400

it certainly looks strange seeing FauxClock min.Freqeuncy jumping to 1.19ghz every time i tap on the screen.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
and [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] again to the rescue!

opensourced exFAT sources!

let see how these work!
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] se1000:
Dude that's a little unfair isn't it. S3 was widely available worldwide, and especially in the US whereas the Z2 has had a slower release timeframe. Honestly, I'm very happy with the dev work that's been done and is going on for the Z2.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Mr.R™:
Just stating the facts, I never implied I was unhappy with the dev for z2 especially now cm is available but when someone says something that's wrong I will point it out.I'm sure z2 development will grow when its available on contracts worldwide as that's what's stopping many having the z2 ☺
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] deezid:
I think I've found a bug:

Noise Cancelling doesn't work.

It works fine in RomAur 3.1 but after installation of Doomkernel 07 it doesn't have any effect.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
its working fine on stock ROM mate....
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] deezid:
Ok, I think I've found the problem: Fauxsound App! After uninstall it works fine. :)
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
i have that installed too and its all working fine :)

may be there are some "mod"s which you added thats causing the issue...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] a2441918:
Hi Doom, is it okay if I use your kernel sources while building roms rather than the default cm kernel?
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
no... this kernel is still work in progress and is ment for stock ROM...

CM requires specific kernel.. and CM is still work in progress... so no point mixing these two... will only lead to more trouble than good...
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] pauliebb:
Think I've found a bug. When trying to record screen using screencast app it just records your doomkernel boot logo.

Not sure if It's the kernels fault or not. Will try stock kernel later.
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] poo-tang:
Use SCR - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iwobanas.screenrecorder.pro

It's alot better then the competition and I just tested on my Z2 with DooMKernel 7 without any issues. :)

DooMKernel v08 released!

changelog

added and enabled proper RAM Console support - now users can get /proc/last_kmsg (thanks to [MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION] )

now we have custom built Broadcom BCMDHD WiFi WLAN module (thanks to [MENTION=2492127]Kali-[/MENTION] ) and updated to .402 firmware sources

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

added and enabled intelli-plug v2.6 - intelli-plug is an alternative to MPDecision hotplug governor! (thanks to [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] )

Please do consider donating to get more devs onboard!

please keep sending in your feedback it helps me improve my kernel! constructive feedback is ALWAYS welcome!

Not sure what the feature means? READ THIS!

[ IMP NOTE ]

1] starting from v08 onwards you will not be able to get back to stock kernel directly as the wifi related files get changed while flashing kernel!

2] a back to stock package is also provide in OP 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!

regards,

DooMLoRD
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Myrrhman:
So when installing RomAur in the aroma installer, i choose:

Improve EXT4 Performance

Enable data_writeback for all partitions

Is that the same as what your talking about, exFAT, or is that unrelated ?

Also, whenever i reboot system from CWM i get asked to 'fix root', i usealy choose no and root is stil ok, but could that be ?

PS: Thanx for all your hard and great work !!
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:

With doomlord kerne v8 not working Hotspot and wifi even when reinstalling v7 and or Z2_DooMLoRD_AdvStkKernel_TWRP-v01-FW_402.zip. So stay away for now who have priority use Hotspot or wifi
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] DooMLoRD:
thanks for reporting!

I can confirm that hotspot issue is there on v08!

you will need to flash back to stock package (FW 402: back to stock >> Z2-DooMLoRD_StockFirmwareFiles-FW_402) BEFORE flashing any older kernel or any CWM/TWRP/PhilZ kernel...

Please read post before, I did it and work for me. Before flash wipe cash/dalvik and then flash with link provided with doomlord and then flash straight v7 or v6 etc... > reboot and should be OK with wifi
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] poo-tang:
You need to read the last couple of pages or actually read the op. The exfat issue was a condition of the newest kernel release (it states clearly exfat will not work for v8). The stock Wifi module is posted in op below the new kernel if need to revert, as v8 uses a custom WLAN module.

Read read and read again before randomly flashing stuff and posting your issues. :)
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] ksekhar:
Thanks, it worked. When you flash 7 times from the same developer you end up trusting 8th one and flash without reading :)
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] Mr.R™:
You don't need to wipe cache when upgrading kernel btw :)

u can carry on trusting but dont flash blindly!!!

we are always testing something new!
[Xperia Z2 Original Android Development] visitor29:
I believe you are right, but I had a lot Android devices like s2,s3,s4,s5,htc m8,nexus 10, and now z2 and sometimes reinstalling and testing playing up and down sometimes happening non explain able things...believe me it will not gonna harm your device if double press wipe cash/dalvik or even make sure if nothing save able in your device just factory reset and end of story after only time question (booting, loading) only after that and then you can be sure thinks will go like have to go...
