Will be uploading the last build of 2015 in a few hours. Just before the end of Christmas night in my timezone. Then celebrating Christmas and New Year, was a wonderful ride to where we are today:

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

See you all in 2016!!!

Changelog:

- Reverted all kernel changes, going back to stock kernel build from source (it will still have compiler optimizations)

- Reverted Wifi modules to before last

- Xposed works again

- Latest security updates from upstream (dec-2015)

Edit:

Upload will be a day laterUploaded
[RAZR i Android Development] joshsg3:
Thanks for all your work Hazou, just finished booting with the new update, all working good it seems (though that quick charging was looking interesting, I'll have to look into it later). just came back from the stock rom from when snapchat and google play music was screwing themselves in your rom, but already google play music is working, so nice work on that

Keep up the great work :)

ok, so I tried to install xposed through an old installer and that didn't work, into a bootloop, so thought I should at least share this link: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=44013064, the disabler in the v2.4.1 worked and got me out of the bootloop (no idea if just any disabler will work for xposed), might try xposed again later with the x86 installer

[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
micro or mini ?
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
With the link form the first post I got xposed working. It has the 2.6.1 version. I will give u my own steps to install xposed soon (2016) on this device. The tool now used needs to be downloaded. And the tool is not needed to installed closed on this device.
[RAZR i Android Development] Eserim:
Many thanks. A quick question, I went back to the September Rom, would a simple upgrade over this one be ok? I'll probably test it later anyway ?

Have a good new year.
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
Merry xmas and thanks for the New build!

Can you please provide the modified kernel for those who want to flash it separately...?

Thanks in advance and best wishes for 2016!

[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Yep, that was the idea. It also includes new ramdisk changes from him. Can take some days, Maybe i can still do it this year, otherwise next.
[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
the last build, you recommended clean flash Hazou? Thanks
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Nope a dirty flash shouldn't give any problems
[RAZR i Android Development] Eserim:
For info, dirty flash over September version with xposed and xposed failed, some sort of version clash, sorry, didn't take screen shot. I removes xposed, dirty flashed the latest version and reinstalled using the tool and all happy :) Using standard xposed installer bootlooped.

Oh, and my "About Phone" crash has gone away - looks like this one is a keeper :)
[RAZR i Android Development] Eserim:
OK - potential "issue" - Phone reports 12h 55m on battery and also WiFi running is 12h 55m - And I have a Llama task that switches WiFi off when the screen goes off, and when the screen comes on, the WiFi icon isn't showing (I have another task to switch it on) - plus WiFi is showing as 2nd highest battery usage after screen.

[RAZR i Android Development] nicop91:
Aouch ! soft brick after updating... I had encryption and after update I could not get it passed the passphrase. Had to format /data :(

A rather radical way of getting a new phone !

Anyway, I had the xposed installer but framework is not installed and everytime I try to install it I have to flash the xposed-disabler to get out of bootloop... A compatibility issue with the last build maybe ?

Could anyone give me a link to a download or a way to install the framework without using the installer (flashing it for example) ?
[RAZR i Android Development] roymental:
I got out of the xposed bootloop by dirty flashing cm11 again, deleting dalvik/cache and restarting. After that you can normally uninstall the framework.

---------- Post added at 10:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 AM ----------

I have higher battery drain with the new version. Before kernel drain was about 20 to 25 percent, now more than 95%. Is there anything I can deliver to help solving the issue?

---------- Post added at 10:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:38 AM ----------

... And responsiveness is much worse here. Takes a while to swap between apps, see recently used, share stuff and so on.

Think I'll go back to previous version for the moment...
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Strange things. The kernel is the same as the ones in every build from november and backwards. So those problems might not be the rom. I think there is something else on the phone that causes those issues and is asking much from the kernel. And if they persist. A clean install with data recovering with TB could solve it.
[RAZR i Android Development] nicop91:
Thank you, I did flash again cm11 and delete dalvik/cache so I have it working without xposed right now. But now I would love to use Xposed again, so I would need to reinstall it...

If it does not work using the installer, would there be another way like flashing something ?

[MENTION=4479363]Hazou[/MENTION] do you know if there is an incompatibility with Xposed maybe ?

EDIT:

just saw the comment on the 1st post "As of version 1.12/26 October Xposed will notwork, go there". My bad ! I will try that tonight.

I did not detect any responsiveness issue but I did a factory reset so I am running with a very clean install.

The only issue I could detect is when trying to protect a folder with a schema; I have "the app trebuchet stopped working"... Anyone know about this ?
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
I think roymental refers to the previous version with the custom/modified kernel. Can confirm, that this one was alot snappier and more responsive than the latest build. Will wait for a modified kernel flash to check.

Btw, when the modified kernel is available for the latest rom, will the xposed issue return or did that have other reasons?
[RAZR i Android Development] george100:
I'm getting several WiFi issues with the 12/25 build, WiFi connectivity just stops working, not when the phone goes deep sleep, but when it is normally used, thinking on go back to 12/8 version, where I didn't have any of the reported issues before. Anyone else having WiFi issues with the connectivity of it? Installed latest version with a full wipe, including internal storage,
[RAZR i Android Development] AntaresFP:
My experience with the 25/12/2015 version is really good! I did a clean flash, and overall it feels really smooth. Installed OpenGapps pico. Managed to install xposed with the x86 bat installer. WiFi is stable. Battery is practically the same as before. The backed up apps pulled from the 26/10 version don't cause any problems. The only thing I needed to turn off is the Greenify xposed module which causes reboots.
[RAZR i Android Development] acmalko:
Everything works fine for the moment with the last build.

Nothing to say about battery drain. Responsiveness is ok, sorry roymental.

About the wifi I do not use much
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
I was already waiting for u to find that out. Someday he would read the FP and see whynxposed didn't work. Glad u did ;p

Working on it, but also working on my brand new 3.4 kernel. And it works :)

Try a reflash and see what happens?
[RAZR i Android Development] nicop91:
Yes, I usually do look at that kind of things before posting, but eh ^^ Works perfectly, I got my xposed back !

Only have the small app crash with Trebuchet when trying to protect a folder... But I tried it with my 2nd phone which has the same configuration and no problem, so something's not right with mine. My apps will stay unprotected !

Thank you for your work, it runs perfectly and allowed me to unbrick my sister's phone while she was already ready to buy a new one !
[RAZR i Android Development] roymental:
Sorry for having buggered the forum with my noobish assumption. A factory reset in fact did solve the problem. Maybe it had something to do with smart launcher 3. I reinstalled with titanium. Problems startet there....

Thanks anyway :)
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Uploaded the 3.0.101 kernel in the download section. It contains most if not all changes from Oxavelar's kernel. I don't support this one, just merged all the code and let it boot.

I uploadedit now for a second time, make sure u download it after this post ;) (saw that 2 people already downloaded it, while it was not 100% complete)
[RAZR i Android Development] Tamsta_T:
After successful update phone still reports Kernel version " 3.0.34++", is this correct?
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
Same here. Still on Old kernel after Flash. No enhanced governors available and can't turn WiFi on anymore ...

[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Sorry, made a mistake in the zip. Will fix asap. New zip wil have "v2" behind it so u know it is up
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
Thx for the quick fix, v2 is working.

Flashed without wipes, Xposed still installed and working too!

All oxavelar i/o schedulers are present, but governors are only the 2 stock ones. Did you sort them out for a reason?

Edit: running great so far, very fluent and responsive!
[RAZR i Android Development] Tamsta_T:
Yep, everything is flying now :o Thanks Hazou!
[RAZR i Android Development] zheka99:
Hello!

---------- Post added at 01:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:38 AM ----------

the same

new kernel - when restarting, the new setting will not start, although there is tick in the settings for restart ( i have setted the "row")

wlan works

xposed works

Let's see if battery drain is changed to positive :) (its not bad, but can be better)
[RAZR i Android Development] acmalko:
Sorry for this question but I didn't understand why having reverted kernel in the last build and what can I expect about flashing the last kernel.

What are the pros and cons.

Thanks for your answer.
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
December 8th version had a modified kernel included (changes made by Omar on JellyBean), which brings more tweaks/optimizations as well as more governors & schedulers to chose from. Advantages would be more speed, battery and further customisations.

Disadvantages: some Users experienced bugs and xposed wouldn't work.

For this reason Hazou decided to make it an optional flash, which is the best solution for all.

So you can try out the rom with the (reverted to) stock kernel without any limitations. But if you like you can also try out the custom kernel with a single second flash afterwards, so you can determine your own pros and cons...
[RAZR i Android Development] roymental:
but do we still have to use the zen-fone install method for xposed with last cm11 and separate kernel-flash? with both versions I didn't got it working, still bootlooping...

except the xposed issue it goes faster than ever before. battery is very good, responsiveness perfect.
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
I guess so.

I once put the zen-fone xposed on the phone when it was the only method to go, flashed the latest rom over it, installed files again from the xposed app which was still there and finally flashed the mod kernel afterwards (without wipes).
[RAZR i Android Development] acmalko:
Very clear, thanks ! :o

I dont' use xposed at all and I like the idea to have the best kernel but I encountered bugs with December 8th version so I will stay with the December 25th "reverted" version.
[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
why not work WiFi in the new kernel???
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
Did you download the correct kernel (v2)? WiFi works with that one. First kernel Release was faulty...

Tapatalked via motoRAZRi
[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
yes, i downloaded and flash Kernel-3.0.101v2 after flash i do wype cache and dalvik
[RAZR i Android Development] earnie:
In my opinion 12/25 ROM together with kernel 3.0.101v2 is the best performing system so far. Very responsive, fast app switching, thanks Hazou! I just wonder where some features from Omar's kernel are gone, eg smartassV2 and KSM? Did you remove them by purpose?

What do you think about those mods:

http://xdaforums.com/razr-i/development/mod-smooth-multimedia-bluetooth-volumes-t3248134

and

Any chance to integrate them?
[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
after flashing the 25/12 version my battery drain too fast, and Xposed not work ... I install the kernel v2 again without wypes and fails to turn the wifi on .... and Xposed no work too

I return to version 23/9 again because work well.. I hope soon new version
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
I think u are doing something wrong then. A next release, with probably some new media codecs, won't solve your problems because it will be almost identical to the 25/12 release.

Have u tried a clean install (full wipe) with the 25/12, then install Xposed through the methode on the FP (not the official way), and then flash the new v2 kernel. There should be no problem then.

Because I won't be building further on the code base of 23/9 with the old dalvik.
[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
I tried again because i dont know dont work well the last build + kernel v2.. Thanks master
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Ok, let me know if it worked and if not, what u did in steps. Maybe I see something and can help somewhere.
[RAZR i Android Development] diegomartinezlovey:
i flash from 0, first JB EU and them flash cm 11 25/12.. after i installed xposed with another method and i flashed kernel v2... All work fine :good:
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Nice:good:
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
Hey Hazou,

could you please give a hint on the missing governors in the mod kernel? Did you sort them out on purpose or just missing by mistake? Thx!

Haven't merged them properly, I think. Will have a look into it next week ;)

3.4 kernel

Hi Hazou,

I tried your 3.4 kernel from github. I noticed that the first 56 bytes of the recovery partition were overwritten with 0x00 after I booted the new kernel.

I hacked a bit around with the ram_console and it also overwrote my ulogo partition. Then I rebuilt the kernel without the mmc module. And now the last_kmsg works great.

My patch is the following:

Reflash the cm11 Rom! Without wipes
[RAZR i Android Development] chuckiebronco:
Just out of interest, how do you guys do a clean install?

Do you start with RSD flashing 4.2 Rom and OTA afterwards and then CM? Or RSD + 4.4 TWRP Backup Image to CM?

Or just RSD 4.2 to CM / TWRP 4.4 to CM...?

Lots of possibilities, any experiences or recommendations?
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
There is absolutely no rsd and stock ROM needed to do a clean install. CM only touches the partitions u can manage from the recovery and no other ones. So a clean install is just the following:

1. Make a backup

2. Do a factory reset in recovery

3. Flash CyanogenMod

A dirty flash is just flashing the new CM zip over the running system. Mostly this goes well, but not always.

In this process (clean install) the system, data, cache and boot partitions are formatted and flashed. No need for more.

An extra option could be to clear the internal sdcard by mannualy formatting the internal sdcard in recovery.

[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Sorry, already broke 2 devices and I don't have access to the third one all the time. Hopefully one more update the coming week. That may be the last one. There are no more updates on the cm11 branch. Other updates I had still can work, but I don't have the tools to get them working. And most of the optimizations from Intel are included.

But if someone wants, I do think android 5.1 or even 6 could work on the device. If I get one of the 2 working, I will give that another shot.

If we could find uart pins on the device, would it help to unbrick yours?

By the way, how did you exactly brick your second phone? As you know I'm also experimenting with the 3.4 kernel. And I don't want my device bricked.
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
I don't have a clue on how uart pins work. And as far as I know the usb port is a virtual uart port.

My first device couldn't boot past the BOS/POS again after using kexec to boot a kernel. It may be fixed by flashing the os image through xfstk. But then again I need a working osdnx

My second device didn't even get past the bootloader (the first second of boot screen, I think), it says that the code is corrupt. I got that by enabling the sound drivers of the new 3.4 kernel. The device did boot ones and stopped booting after. So the kernel may have screwed things up.

The third device runs smoothly CM11. I only flash full CM images on that one. I won't use that to get kernels or even >CM12 working.

Both problems have one thing in common. Changed kernel. It could be that the kernel is wrongly loaded and some code is corrupt. Or i am very (un)lucky and got 2 devices with an emmc error.

To maybe fix those i am trying to flash the osdnx and osimage through xfstk. But the phone doesn't accept those and forcing them to the phone also doesn't work. So back to the drawing board to see if there is even a remote possibility to fix them.

Wifi disconnect/connect issue

Dear Hazou,

First of all, many thanks for your amazing work!

Secondly I want to report an issue I’m experiencing with the latest build and new kernel: my wifi randomly disconnects and immediately reconnects again, which wasn’t happening before. I upgraded from 13 August build to latest build by full wipe and installed xposed by ZenFone method.

Is anybody else having this problem?

Thanks for any help!
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
Hmm, I don't have that problem. What if u try a reflash and don't use xposed for a while. test the wifi and if there is nothing, install xposed again. After that test it.

Also does it only happen at your home network or at others aswell?
[RAZR i Android Development] mwoch:
So far I can only tell for my home network. I flashed just a few days ago.

Sure. I'll give it a try. Do you recommend a full wipe before flashing again? Or just cache and dalvik?
[RAZR i Android Development] Hazou:
No full wipe is needed. Just the zip file should do it.
