Building Kernel Guide

Maybe a noob question, but I'm trying to follow the ASOP kernel building guide "how-to-build-and-flash-a-linux-kernel-for-aosp-supported-devices" for the Sony Experia Z1 and have a question on step 6 "Configure the kernel".

For the command "make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=$CROSS_COMPILE <device_defconfig> " I assume you would replace <device_defconfig> with "aosp_rhine_honami_defconfig", but I get an error because kernel/arch/arm/configs doesn't contain that file.

Where do I get that configuration file from?

Thanks in advance.
[Xperia Z3 Compact General] arcadroid:
Following the "How to build AOSP Lollipop for unlocked Xperia devices" guide was confusing, but I managed to figure it out.

I followed the commands In "How to build AOSP Lollipop for unlocked Xperia devices" step 7 to download the the kernel source to android/kernel/msm instead of the commands listed in the guide "How to build and flash a Linux kernel for AOSP supported devices".

Then I executed steps 6 and 7 in "How to build and flash a Linux kernel for AOSP supported devices" and was able to compile a new kernel.

I'm assuming steps 8 and 9 in "How to build and flash a Linux kernel for AOSP supported devices" could be moved to the guide "How to build AOSP Lollipop for unlocked Xperia devices" in order to update the ASOP and kernel.

Can you please share a bit more details about the precompiled kernel for other devices there at SonyXperiaDev's git is made from which sources?

So that by then we can compile a kernel.

the kernel is precompiled from the kernel repo of the sonyxperiadev git. (latest 3.5 branch should be used for compiling).

May i suggest adding "5.0" or "lollipop" to the thread title?

you can use honami blobs but kernel and dts have to be recompiled from unified kernel source

Hi all gonna have a go at trying to build aosp for my z ultra my question is once I've downloaded the extra binaries I need. It's saying to put them in the root of my code tree, does that mean into the togari folder or elsewhere. Gonna go the whole hog and wipe my laptab and load ubuntu on it and start work on it, so any ideas and suggestions would be great too. Here the actual quote from the sony dev site below. (http://developer.sonymobile.com/kno...ld-aosp-lollipop-for-unlocked-xperia-devices/)

"4. Find the software binaries for the device you want to use on Sony’s AOSP for Xperia devices

5. In the root of your Android code tree, unzip the software binaries file you downloaded in step 4."

in the root of the android folder should then look like this:

I'm running aokp jb on my phone. The other day I decided to change my boot animation so I used the tool in Settings to do so, then rebooted. However, after it got past the Samsung logo it was stuck on a black screen for about half a minute before the screen got brighter and the touch keys lit up, and it never boots into the OS. What's also strange is how I can feel the vibration of the pattern lock. I entered the pattern and heard the unlock sound. Is there any way that I could remove the boot animation and bring it back to the stock Aokp one, or do i need to reflash? Thanks.

[ONE General] kmakiki:
Hey guys,

There have been a ton of people asking how to activate onscreen buttons and disable the capacitive buttons since CM12 builds have started rolling out. Obviously, at some point, these features will be rolled into the ROM, but until then, I figured it would be a good idea to simply present a step-by-step thread on the issue. There have been answers all over the place button nothing dedicated and centralized, so I figured I would help some guys out.

Things needed:

CM12 Build on any variety (currently K900 and bpear have "nightlies" available in development. Check em out.

Root access. Just flash SuperSU 2.16 (http://download.chainfire.eu/589/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.16.zip) if you don't have it. Root is necessary.

Zip to turn of the backlights: http://www.mediafire.com/download/p385se5ia28cqab/noSoftkeyBacklight.zip (thanks [MENTION=2208882]Moody[/MENTION] for this)

1.) Activate On-Screen buttons

- Use a program such as BuildProp Editor (look it up on the Play Store) to create a new build.prop entry. Call it qemu.hw.mainkeys, and set it's value to 0. If you are doing this manually, just add the line "qemu.hw.mainkeys=0"

- Reboot.

2.) Deactivate Capacitive buttons

- Download Root Explorer or some other program that allows editing of system level files.

- Mount your system as R/W. In root explorer at least, when you get into the system, there is a button up top to do so.

- Navigate to /system/usr/keylayout. Open Generic.kl in with a text editor.

- Comment out the follow lines by inserting a pound sign (#) in front of the line:

key 158 BACK

key 172 HOME

key 139 MENU

After this, they will read:

# key 158 BACK

# key 172 HOME

# key 139 MENU

Therse are numerically ordered, shouldn't be hard to find within the document.

- Remount your system as R/O.

3.) Turn off the capacitve back lights

- Reboot into custom recovery and flash noSoftKey.zip file you downloaded earlier.

- Reboot.

That should do it! You should now have software buttons and your hardware buttons should seemingly not exist!

Any questions or comments, please leave them here.

Its not working bro

Tried and followed your steps , disabling capacitive keys works but enabling on screen keys not working even after changing build.prop , also i read in some post that enabling on screen key mod will not work in cm roms is that true can any one confirm me?

i am using following rom its CM12

http://xdaforums.com/oneplus-one/development/devrom-cm12-scheduled-builds-t2938372

its very stable didnt experience any glitch till now , multi user and guest account works , all the other features are working too, try it out friends.

Edit: Nvm, found it, re-flashing the ROM brings back all to the default behavior including the capacitive backlights.

I read somewhere that newer Sprint phones could not access the internet while in a call, something about just one radio, I'm still on Evo jewel and never noticed this. Is this true for the G3?
[Sprint LG G3] okcnyyfan:
The spark phones only have one radio. It sucks. I lose data everytime I get a call.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Yep. If T-Mobile had decent coverage where I live I would have abandoned Sprint for this reason only. In two years, if Sprint is still selling phones with 1990 technology, I'll be gone.
[Sprint LG G3] Mahapederdon:
I don't think it's cause there being cheap. I think it cause once v o lte happens your calls will all be on wifi or lte. No need for 2 radios. Simple is better.
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
Maybe. But I doubt VoLTE will be here any time soon, and the lack of simultaneous voice and data impacts me today. My 3 generation old Galaxy S3 has better connectivity than my brand new G3. Technology is supposed to provide more services over time, not less.
[Sprint LG G3] _Dennis_:
2 radios use 2 times the power. LTE can not fall back to CDMA like it can GSM, so the trade off having one radio is when CDMA call comes in, data drops. You can always have calls go to google voice then use hangouts, its data then so you can stay on 3G or LTE.

I'd much rather better battery life then be able to look up footballer scores while chatting with my mom (or whatever people use data for while on a call)

I know everyone's use case is different but I think better battery life is more important to more people them data on calls.

In what way is LTE, eHRPD, or even EV-DO 1990s tech?
[Sprint LG G3] meyerweb:
I guess I don't understand how my GS3 was able to do LTE and simultaneous voice and data and still have decent battery life, then.

Not providing simultaneous voice and data is what I'm referring to as 1990's tech.

The new Spark enabled phones are a step backwards in connectivity, and the advantages of Spark are merely a promise. Given how long it's taking Sprint to roll out LTE, I suspect I'll have a new phone before I have Spark. So I'm giving up a feature I did use (not for football scores but, for example, to look up directions to give to my wife without having to hang up and call her back), for a feature that isn't actually available and provides me no benefit at all.

Oh, and since you've mentioned battery life, everything I've read about VoLTE indicates it's a huge battery hog.
[Sprint LG G3] _Dennis_:
SGS3 had slower internals, less screen size/resolution.

http://www.rcrwireless.com/20140422/opinion/reality-check-volte-battery-issues-not-really has good info on battery drain. Here's what I say, CDMA was designed for voice (1xRTT is voice, only EV-DO/eHRDP/LTE is data on CDMA devices). While VoLTE may use a bit more power then CDMA, you get better quality sound along with data and voice. VoLTE will still be better the GSM for power draw on voice I'd bet. Sprint is doing the right thing, waiting/helping finalize a standard for VoLTE, they don't want a wimax mistake again.

What sprint has done/is trying to do with spark is awesome. Tri band LTE with more frequency slots then anyone else, a bunch in the 800mhz range will be amazing, and they expand the coverage every few months, so they are working on it. There are lots of regulatory crap to go through to get band 41 and especially the 800mhz in band 26 operable in areas.

Not saying you can't want voice and data, just that I feel more people fall on the other side, wanting more battery.
