Whaaaat? A new thread? A new kernel? No. It's [MENTION=4800636]OmarEinea[/MENTION] :laugh:

Downloading and testing ;)

As always, great job and thanks for your time :good:

--------------------------------------------------EDIT--------------------------------------------------

31-10-2014 release works fine, but the other one give me status 6 error with cwm.

Solved by using updater-script of first release :)

One more thing I saw Sony Z1 Compact on recovery (nothing to worry about)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Please, include latest Intelliplug v3.8 and latest [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] goodies.. :D
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] OmarEinea:
I'm doing that gradually, just be patient :)

Omar.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] lowrider_05:
thanks for this great kernel and yes its working fine and the 2.419 mhz is totally stable i even can undervolt this -25mv without any problems and i would not mind to have the option to run the phone at 2.7ghz ;)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Thanks a ton dev!

Gonna be giving it a try in a day for sure. Man this was all that was missing in Android Original Dev sections.

Great work!

P.S. What I actually liked the most was the humility that is expressed in the name of the Kernel, re affirms my be belief in humanity.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nolexxes:
I tried to use OC (2419) with pimp my z1 app but it wouldn't stay on it (went back to 2260, tried it several times) other than that it's great! ty
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] AgroCPU:
im going to try it (finally a cm kernel thats under development :D ) and i would like 2,7GHz :p

ps is it only for cm or aosp too ? there are nearly same ...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
Finally.. Can thank u enough Omar

Download link Fix Please ..
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] OmarEinea:
It's showing a sorry message by the file host server!

It seems ok now though, I'll also start mirroring the kernel in download section of the thread :)

Regards,

Omar.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Chocolatetrain:
Thanks a lot! Can't wait to test this ?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
Seems Stable already. No problems with Settings not Sticking on boot. Using Faux app and DARKCM ROM
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Hen Ry:
I'm testing

runs so far without problems

many thanks
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] nemesisexsp:
Thanks for this amazing kernel!

Just one question:

Can you make a version tht works with SlimKat?

:fingers-crossed:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Langes:
Got a random reboot, phone was connected to PC, screen off.

Hi tried out the new kernel but in my case bad news - no boot of phone display stays off and red led on :(

Flashed back CM11 boot.img and device is ok.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ch3mn3y:
Another question: where i can find what every number mean? Mine is 1

Sent using R800i - DiXperia 3 'Enormous'/LuPuS_GB (RAM)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Tommy-Geenexus:
6 -> highest, 0-> lowest.

But the speed bin is more important.

Stable oc is guaranteed only if you got speed bin 1.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ch3mn3y:
I have ultra so maybe there is some difference, i read that we have worse (?) bin, so no to much oc, but i want to try what i can, to know something more about my device :)

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] OmarEinea:
A Little Announcement!

Due to the circumstances I'm going through right now (computer problem, lollipop development, final exams after a month!)

and due to switching to lollipop ROMs (in the next few weeks), this kernel will be useless as long as it's based on CM's KK sources!

I decided to delay GDv2 for a little while in order to provide you a new build that is:

Based On Sony's AOSP sources

Freshly well written code from scratch

Includes all GDv2 changes I talked about

And will try to do what you guys ask for ;)

And to make it easier to me, I'll put a list of everything that I'm probably gonna be including in the kernel in the second post,

so I'll read your suggestions and add them to the list if it's reasonable to include them in the kernel :)

I'm sorry for the lack of the updates, but I'll dedicate my time to lollipop ROMs development for a while,

and I'll be back to developing this kernel afterwards :fingers-crossed:

what do you think guys?

Regards,

Omar.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
Seems logical. Thanks for your work and Study hard for exams. Best of luck.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
RL should always have priority 1. Thx for the development until now. Hopefully we will see the 2nd version from you some day. Maybe the BSODs and reboots are gone then. After all my testing with different governors I am sure they are not the main reason for the errors. Good luck with your exams.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] r3flux:
Unable to boot after flashing the kennel. Strangely this is happening on all custom kernels. I get back by flashing PACman ROM (current ROM) all over again.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
Read a few pages back
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] r3flux:
Thanks, but didn't work for me. Still same problem. The red led doesn't stay on. It flashes at boot and freezes at the kernel logo.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Can't get more than 2.5 hours of screen with this kernel + cm11.

Interactivex2, eco conservative, vr, hybrid, dynamic file sync off

Normal wake locks, use - browser, gallery.

Where's the problem?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Probably in your battery or configuration, i have had 4 hours 20 minutes screen on time with 62 percent still left - I am on PA.

(I was reading Siddharta by Hermen Hesse + casual chatting via sms).
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Can you share your config, please?

Latest pa?

Using SmartAssH3 with MPDecision, Max Frequency set to 172800, minimum set to 3000, using Simple_Ondemand for GPU Governor with 389 as Max Frequency.

Yeah, I am on 4.6B5 Playful Pitaya, and no I don't use Google Now, for the record I have location reporting enabled.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] LemonJuls:
How can you be so good? :(

I'm on pa 4.6, too.

But my battery get sucked up by android os every time..

And I'm using Greenify for whatsapp...
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Io schedulers?

Cpu / idle?

---------- Post added at 10:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:33 PM ----------

For me, smartassh3 stuck at Max freq :(
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Wait let me show you the screenshots.

This is the same session where I read the book, did redditing and stuff.

I have disabled entropy, I use ROW or SIO both work for me equally well with 512KB read-ahead.

Nope, I have all idle-states set to off it is a battery drainer in my case.

P.S - Android OS battery drain is caused by Wearable and Fittness services running under Google Play Services, easier way is to use Slim Gapps instead of PA Gapps.

If you are feeling adventurous you can disable these services using Disable Service from Play Store too, for that download the said app,navigate to Google Play Services in the program and disable every service which has fitness or wearable in its name.

PS #2: I have tried using Disable Services and it works flawlessly for me, a while ago somebody mentioned using Slim Gapps, I tried that, it works too so do whatever you find is easy for you.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Thank you so much! Will try to enhance my battery life :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] LemonJuls:
With your configuration I got this.

Maybe i should try the other gapps. Because this morning i goz drain from android os again. (Picture 3)

Thanks for your help!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Try Slim GApps see if they make a difference, I am consistently getting 7 hours+
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Do we need to remove gapps, before installing slim gapps?

---------- Post added at 10:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:39 PM ----------

And how can we remove them?
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Ok, installed slim mini gapps, will see what happens.

Disable services didn't made change.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] joe21o:
Need a good kernel setting

Hello guys, im a bit new to this stuff. Could someone tell me the good kernel setting using pimp my z1 with a good battery life but not sacrificing the performance of this phone :) Any help would be appreciated thx.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
So, it was good for about 5 hours. Now android os drains battery, 76% in battery info.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Abomb:
It's actually the same for me, tried to disable fitness and wearable services and also tried slim gapps, Android OS battery drain still persists. Is there any way to find out what systems specifically are the problem? tools like BetterBatteryStats and Wakelock detector don't show any specific wakelocks as problems.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
Try System Tuner, it has many log functions. Maybe you can find the problem with it. Power drain is a known problem of the kernel. As well as BSODs and reboots.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Waiting for new version of kernel :D
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] LemonJuls:
Get only about 3,5 hours of SOT. No more draining from the android os...

I use exactly your configuration.

With Stock I was getting much more SOT, like 5 hours and 2 days runtime.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
It is strange, I always get longest battery time with CM/PA based ROMs, the maximum I can do with a Stock ROM is like 4 hours or 5.

Check another thing, do you have Searching Always Available (in Wifi settings) enabled?

Disable it if isn't already, turn of touch vibration for nav-bar as well as keyboard.

Even on my busiest days, when I am texting like crazy and switching between messengers like there is no tomorrow I can easily get 5:30 hours + worth of juice.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] LemonJuls:
Yes it's very strange..

I startet a little game for a minute and phone was lagging like hell after going back to homescreen...

I restarted the phone and suddenly there was Android OS in battery statistics at 73% !!!

Before the restart it was at 10% ...

Really don't know whats going on..
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Just don't give a damn, if it doesn't give wakelock or really drain your battery. I disabled Google search and now it's ok
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] moritz31:
I had all these problems too, im now on cm12 which makes my experience another but i had a high battery drain due Android OS , what helps was calibrating the battery
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Right after restart to upto 10-20 minutes of AndroidOS high usage can be caused by MediaServer too, after the phone reboots that mediaserver goes crazy in its search for newly added files and process is kinda longer if you have an external card.

Again, yeah like others said, don't worry about it, even though at one time I too wanted to get rid of it; it is not a big deal and never actually turned out to be a huge drainer.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] moritz31:
Okay now im back to cm11 and tried the kernel but the really high battery drain due Android OS is back :o
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] thouseefahamed:
does this work for xperia z1 stock rom rooted kitkat 4.4.4 not unlocked bootloader..... :confused:
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
No only for UB
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] thouseefahamed:
thanks
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Android OS shows up as the highest drainer, but it isn't.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mgh1982:
Where is the link??????? couldn't find it !!!

Here

[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] moritz31:
are you sure ?

because wackelock detector shows me a lot of drain due

PowerManagerService.Wakelocks (caused by google play service)

PowerManagerService.Display (caused by ?)

and i get only 3hours screen on time
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] memphis77:
Okay I tried to flash this kernel.

Now I have a black screen, no red ligt and the only thing my z1 respons to is when I hit the power button &volume up. It starts vibrating and nothing else is possible.

Edit

Problem solved. Surprisingly the red light showed up this morning. Other kernel was flashable.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] moritz31:
These breaks are strange
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
It's due to hard reset
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] srqrox:
Yeap positive!

I was having, AndroidOS as the biggest drainer too so got paranoid and started finding solutions - even after fixing, my battery timing is same (6/7+ SoT).
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] moritz31:
Mhhh okay that is Bad :/ i only got 3hours SoT
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] pashka0:
Any news about new version?

---------- Post added at 01:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 PM ----------

Same for me
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Dev. for kernel is stopped due to development of stable Lollipop ROM build. When Omar managed to have a stable lollipop ROM he will continue with kernel.

Gesendet von meinem Z1
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
I have read an article about Android 5. http://winfuture.mobi/news/85126

Maybe Omar, you should wait with the development of a Lollipop based OS and kernel until Google fixed the mayor bugs and problems in the stock version. Those things can take time and as we can see on Microsoft they may be never fixed but just overjumped - XP good, Vista bad, Win7 good, Win8/.1 Bad.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Well, for this we have developers. They build the Roms and implement fixes found/made by them self or the community.

Even android 4.x had so many bugs, but no one cares anymore.

Sent from my Xperia Z1 running latest SlimRom
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] fantamadnesss:
Thanks Omar, i really love this kernel. With the right settings its fast, stable and it has good battery life. Antutu results are stunning! (about 41000)

I think its missing only 2 features: Double tap to wake and GPU overclock.

Regards!
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Win8 / 8.1 is the ****!

More features from [MENTION=3332811]faux123[/MENTION] like Simple GPU algorithm and Intellithermal / IntelliMM governor is highly wanted.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mo120697:
why the hell is overclocking implemented in most of (all) kernels??? our QSD800 has enough power for the next 1-2 years...overclocking to 2.4 GHz is ok, but not necessary and causes bad battery life and device overheating...and OC to 2.7 GHz more bad battery life and this overheating at 2.7 Ghz bricks the device...so why implement overclocking up to 2.7 ghz ???
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] OmarEinea:
I know right!, I'm against implementing it in the kernel actually, it's just that many users asked for it so I did it xD

My main goal for LP kernel would be stability and battery life as I'm building the kernel from scratch,

so I'll only add useful features that people actually use and get benefit from!

Regards,

Omar.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] Langes:
Correct, there is a few very good reasons why CM doesn't have overclocking in their kernels. You unfortunately are in a catch22 situation as many (if not most) users who look for a custom kernel think they need overclocking and will not even try your kernel if it is not offered.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] mo120697:
i bet, those people who asked for oc, arent using the possibility in daily use!

so why didnt you build a kernel without oc ? please do that!:D

also my maint point is battery life! cause with our QSD 800 cyanogenmod runs fast as hell (even with underclocked?! sry bad english :D 1 Ghz) so if we get a kernel, that brings nearly stock sony android like battery life, i would love it!!

btw good kernel:) (except oc:D )
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] fantamadnesss:
Guys are u serious? Overclocking is created for a reason: performance. Yeah, its bad for battery life but u have higher performance. Thats all, pretty simple. If u dont want to OC just dont. Its a kernel feature but nobody forces u to use it.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Honestly speaking:

Back in my old Samsung S2 days, we had this discussion too.

The conclusion was, I will "port" it to the now aviable phones like our XZ1, XZ3, Note3, Nexus6, etc pp, overclocking the CPU/GPU was more for ppl which like to top the benchmarks. The normal users dont care about that stuff. And which game can outrun todays phone hardware? Its like todays aviable PCs. Which game does use the full potential of the hardware? Nearly no game. Ofc there are exceptions, but not worth to mention.

There is another talk when we talk about "hard working" apps /software like Video editing, CAD, Picture editing, and so on. But those ppl dont care about gaming performance when their system has other priorities. And the truth is, maybe only 2% of users , use their phones for work in the hard way.

So i prefere:

- stable kernel

- not overloaded with features

- newest stable and tested faux stuff

- good battery

- f2fs support for system/cache and data

- ofc for f2fs newest TWRP ^^

IMHO Slimkernel is a good and stable kernel. Works like a charme and with correct Rom-/Kernelsetup the battery life is WOOOOW.

This are my 2 cents. You dont have to accept it, but plz respect it.

omfg, i guess i had a drink to much :p
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] fantamadnesss:
No disrespect intented. But why do u have to remove OC feature? If u dont like it just dont use it. A good kernel (like this one atm) must have many features, so many people (those who like performance and those who like battery life and stability). Sorry for my bad english, i cant explain my thinking very well but i hope u understand me.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] ->---:
I think a custom kernel should be stable and have tons of features - that's the reason to use it. Because on the other hand I could use stock CM kernel. It is stable and has nearly no features. On a real custom kernel you do not have to use all features, but you can. But just if they are implemented.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] naitik2012:
This people will make sure that OC feature will get remove from this Kernel... they can simply go to Trickster and set Max freq to 2.105 Ghz (Just two clicks) and done No more OC ..... BUT NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY WILL TRY EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO MAKE SURE THAT OC WILL REMOVE FROM THIS KERNEL ....... SO THAT SOME USERS WHO WANTS TO MAX OUT FROM DER PHONE (I DONT F***** USE ANY BENCHMARK APPS) LIKE ME WONT BE ABLE TO USE OC FEATURES ON KERNEL ... I HOPE THIS PEOPLE'S FAV FEATURES WILL ALSO GET REMOVE FROM THIS KERNEL SOMEDAY .... THAT DAY ILL BE SO HAPPY :)

AND DER MIND ARE SET >> OC = LOTS OF BUGS , ISSUE , UN STABILITY , BATTERY ETC ETC.....

check nexus 5 forum , dey have every kernel with OC supports till 3.0 Ghz

ill leave it up to Omar he will decide what to do with OC ...

Thanks :)
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
Wrong text :s
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] fantamadnesss:
+1 Thats what i think too!

Problem is that this people will change mr Omar's mind... and so he'll remove oc features :(
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] _Garry_:
I don't care if Omar keeps OC features or removes them. I only pointed out, that in normal usage there is no need for OC.

Well when you want to OC feel free to do so. I only want a stable and smooth running kernel; which is not overloaded with stuff, only 5 out of 100 people know what they mean. ;)

Sent from my Xperia Z1 running latest SlimRom
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] abbychauhan:
+1, Others ask urself do u really need OC? Please let us all know which App or Feature needs more then 2150 Clock CPU or 450 Clock GPU? Who uses OC if we know Constant use of OC will fry the device? Just ask urself guys is OC is really required unless u just want to flaunt ur phone with those fake Benchmark Apps? All i know Everyone really want is Best Performance and Battery Ratio, thats my point of view.

Also its just not about the OC feature, it creats bugs and unnecessary unstability.
[Xperia Z1 Original Android Development] OmarEinea:
XD XD XD I'm 19 years old bro, way too official to call me Mr ;)

Let's settle this by releasing a (kinda) nightly builds which has beta and unstable features and battery draining features (like OC and DT2W :p)

and releasing a stable builds which has only stable and approved features in it :)

This way I'll have a good idea about what you guys think about some features by testing them in nightly, and when it seems to be good enough, will put it in the stable version.

Would that be sufficient enough for both (OC lovers and hater xD) sides ?

Regards,

Omar.
