update zip to install kernel

Could you add me on facebook :)

Facebook.com/muhamedxxl

I have maybe some questions as i wos installing the rom i got only around 40 mb free internal memory, and i have now 2.3 lollikat rom i can go to recovery is there a way to make a zip kernel and to install(kernel) like a updatezip? If yes pls tell me how i searched on the interbet it seems there is a way but it looks complicated.

Does anyone's cm12 bootup take like 4 mins? I have a neo l and my friend also has a neo l but his boots in less than 1 min and we did the same installation steps? Any help here? Thank you in advance. http://youtu.be/E-sUFqoxvzk here is proof
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barrel-rider:
I have a Play, but it takes my phone a total of 3 minutes and 25 seconds to boot up.

From the moment it vibrates it takes 12 seconds before the screen turns on.

The kernel takes 2 minutes and 1 second and the CyanogenMod boot animation takes 1 minute and 12 seconds.

I used a stopwatch to measure this so it's pretty accurate but I might be off by a second or two.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krchi:
Look at my friend's Xperia Neo L boots in like a minute anyone also has long boot? if so any fixes? http://youtu.be/KTo5PTuhwFc
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Speed of CM11 on xPlay is dependable on speed of your SD card. Because internal storage is actually ext4 partition of SDcard. Play's 1GB of it's own memory is all used as system partition (and that's why ext4 partition on SDcard is a must-to-have).

You want speed? You need faster SDcard.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barrel-rider:
That really does seem logical, but I think you're wrong. My SD card is class 10 and it still takes me a while. Maybe the partition sizes play a role in it, my ext4 partition is 16gb I'll lower it to 4gb once a newer version is released and see if it improves.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] krchi:
it's cm12 not cm11 and yes I do have a class 10. I've done everything I could maybe I mention my friend also has a 2gb ext4 partition like me.

Kernel in .ftf

This is probably a noob question, :silly: , I've read both threads about CM12 and I didn't find any mention to this, other than you need a UB to flash it. I want to know if there´s a chance to install this rom in a XPlay with the bootloader "unlock" by TestPoint, I mean to flash the kernel with FlashTool and then go on with the steps. :confused:

Thanks!! :D
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barrel-rider:
I test point unlocked my phone. To sum it up an unlocked bootloader lets you flash a custom kernel, a custom kernel has recovery and recovery allows you to wipe system/data and flash roms.

Just so you know, since you used (or are going to use) test point unlock I'm assuming you have an R800at, this rom and almost every GSM play custom rom are for the R800i so your phone will be recognized as a R800i instead of R800a/R800at don't worry about that.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
Yes, CM12, typpo, sorry.

Anyway, i still think it's SDcard issue. Maybe not in a way of data speed of it, but maybe because of fragmentation. Best way to see is speed of ROM SDcard related is to install ROM on empty, freshly formated SDcard (so it's only zip file of ROM is on it).

As i remember, when i was instaling it, first boot took almoust 20minutes, but after that, normal booting was around 1minute. Even after flashing gapps or few other mods for CM12 that i found on xda...

Maybe there was some changes, i didn't test CM12 for a month because my flex is broken (for a 3rd time :p ) and touchscreen don't work. When i can, i'll repair it and build latest CM12 to see how it works.

I don't think size of ext4 partition is causing slowdown, but if you want to try other values, please do, and report here if there is any differences.

"7 March" Link ?

I'm sorry to ask such a dull question, but I' can't see the link of your last build from the "7 march".

I've watched again Smokerman work but it seems to me that's not the same.

I've seen your link to the man who want nobody to publish CM12 build because of the non-functional recovery. But your other links are active. And I've tried a CM12 on a Xperia Z last week and if zip installation is a little odd, lollipop is clearly a good step.

Maybe I've not understood something but meanwhile, I really thanks you and the few other people that make the Play to live for such a long time and to procure such much joy by its way.

1. Done

2. Thanks for the answer

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bakisha:
I wipe system and data from fastboot only if previous kernel is non-CM12 kernel. No need for it if you just upgrading CM12.

To be on safe side, i always do a factory reset while still in recovery of non-CM12 kernel (just in case, so it can properly delete also ext4 partition and .android secure folder on sdcard. But as i said, that is only for first time flashing CM12 rom.

sorry

But can you pls answre is is possible to install a kernel likea zip if you have recovery
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Barrel-rider:
I don't believe so, Xperia phones (from what I can tell most, if not all) use fastboot mode to install kernels, that's because they're flashed separate from the system, they also have included recovery's, unlike kernels for other phones.

That's why I don't think you can, the recovery you'd be using to flash a new kernel is within the current kernel you're using.

Even if somehow you managed to get the kernel into a .zip and tried, IF it started installing, at some point during the installation process you'd overwrite the recovery (even if it's the exact same one you're using) and that'd cause it to fail miserably.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong on that first part, I've never seen another type of phone have recovery in the kernel.

Hi

I need some help please.

I currently have a custom ROM called Lupus, but it's 4.0 and I really need to get to 4.3 or higher ... as my fitness band requires it.

I have d/l the ROM from first post;

cm-11-20150407-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-zeus.zip

And also the GAPPS .zip

But,

I am confused at step 1.

"Flash .79 FTF in Flash tool"

I understand the Flash Tool I need, but I have never heard of 'FTF', and from searching I understand they're the stock files?

And I need to use this specific '.79' version?

Where do I obtain that from please? I couldn't find it.

I found this page: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2184897

But still not certain which one I need, if it's even there, I was looking for '79' but couldn't see it.

I think I'd be ok with the other steps after that first one.

My phone has TWRP on already, but I guess I can't just use that to install the ROM.

Could someone help me out with where to get the file I need please? Thanks

1. Flash .79 FTF in Flash tool

2. Flash Boot.img from Fastboot.

3. Staying in fastboot, erase system and userdata

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

4. Boot Device, Enter Recovery and (Factory Reset) and then (Wipe Cache)

5. Go to Apply Update, Scroll to the Location of you Zip file of the ROM and Install the ROM !

6. Boot ROM.
