On my XSP, on both Tangerine 6.6 or 7.1 - the Headphone Gain value is reseted everytime you use Speaker on call. ;(

This is link to my folder on MEGA with backup files to unofficial CM12.1. Maybe some files working with official CM, but I don't know. :)

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] varioventus:
Sound Gain values resetting is happening due to a Kernel Adiutor bug. This is what I've done in Tangerine 6.6:

First I've installed Trickster. I've set the Heaphone Gain (that's also the call volume) on +13 in Kernel Adiutor (trickster don't allow values over 10). That's, in fact, a true +6 gain, because there is a bug in T-Kernel 6.6 and default +7 is in fact zero, stock volume. Then I've locked the sound gain values

in Trickster

and set it to start on boot.

Now the gain won't go down to default when switching to speaker or when rebooting phone.

NOTE: In Tangerine v7 and v7.1 , the default +7 value is, indeed, true +7 gain, going up to +13 will be way too much and will get clipping.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] fefepato:
What if we uninstall Kernel Auditor and use another app ???
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] flash-:
the main app for this (control sound gain or generally faux settings) is a paid app ..if you have money buy it :silly:
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] fefepato:
YESS !!!! Finally the problem was solved!!!

Just use this app to change the Gain FauxSound Control

Tip* There's alternate ways to download without paying, but if you can, support the developer

:D
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] fantamadnesss:
I use this one and Faux Clock for the other kernel settings. Much better than Kernel Aduitor, they are paid but everything works.

[MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION]

about screen freezing and screen flickering .

i have a c5303 . when i bought it it was with android 4.1.2 and it had no problem , no screen flickering or screen freezing . when i updated it to android 4.3 with .201 fw i saw my phone has screen flickering . after updated to .205 again the problem was there . but when i update to .207 it was solved but i saw my screen freezing . and now after about 1 year i think we have only two choices. 1-screenflickering 2-freezing screen and there is no other choice . (and now when i flash android 4.1.2 fw i see no flickering but i see short screen freezings. i mean shorter than 4.3 .207)

now with cm12.1 offical with tagerin 6.6 i have screen flickering like all UBL roms and kernels and 4.3 .201 and .205 but with tagerin 7.1 i have screen freezing like all LBL roms and 4.3 .207 fw

i dont know why we cant have a good and healthy display :( i dont know why with 4.1.2 screen freezings are shorter :\ all i know is that sony xperia sp disappointed me :(
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] RandomUser017:
Just use this: 5.1.1 ROM (AICP) without Tangerine kernel. You won't get screen freezing. Or use a .207 firmware.

When clean flashing a ROM + T-Kernel or using a .201/205 firmware the screen freezings are short. But they get longer and longer.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mosi.sh:
[MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION]

i think maybe at a freq our phone get screen freezing and maybe we can solve its problem if we find out why the screen freezing or when it freez or at what freq ...

---------- Post added at 09:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:11 AM ----------

i knowe how i dont get screen freezing . but the problem is when i use kernels without screen freezing i have screen flickering :|
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] RandomUser017:
Try to wipe EVERYTHING via TWRP (except external storage). And then install a fresh new version of AICP WITHOUT Tangerine.

(Sorry for caps)

And by the way, [MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] and others:

You should know that only the screen freezes. The phone still functions normal. I once got a freeze while my keyboard was open and when I clicked on the keyboard it still vibrated.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mosi.sh:

Hi everybody and tnx [MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] for this great kernel and sorry for my English :)

i have a problem when using kernel with lights. when i use original CM kernel everything work good and normal. but after flashing this kernel when android starting all of lights (notification and battery and ...) not work.

after this i flashed original CM kernel and all light working again.

anyone can help me?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] pilger:
[MENTION=4498672]mjbe71[/MENTION], if you'd read the last few pages of this thread, you'd know this is a known issue and it can't be fixed now.

The last known CM version in which illumination bar works is the Unofficial release from July 26th. You can find it on Marcelo's original thread if you do a quick search.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:

Hello everybody!

Even if lately I haven't been very active on XDA, I'm still working and doing lots of testing! Now I'm working on AnyKernel (I almost have to re-write it from scratch :eek:) and I promise that the next version of Tangerine will be worth the wait.

bootloop

hi

i have arch xperia 1.2.4

when i flash v7.1 i have bootloop!!!

what should i do???

:confused::confused::confused:
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] flash-:
if you have a working recovery then reboot to it and wipe cache and dalvick cache then flash the archxperia ROM.zip again :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Hey guys, there are some bad news unfortunately...

I'm having problems with my SP. The screen is not working very well. I have to find out if it's a software or hardware or random problem. After a few hours the problems are milder but they're still there.

BTW, AnyKernel is driving me crazy. I'm close to the solution but it may require a little more work.

In the meantime I want to solve your bootloop/baseband and whatnot problems by updating the ramdisks so

if you're experiencing any issue after updating your ROM please send me the boot.img of the ROM you're using

. I'll release a fixed version within a few hours!
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] RandomUser017:
That's bad :/

I already sent you the KSMG log. Do you also need the boot.img for the screen flickering problem?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
No, it's not the screen freezing problem... It looks like it's more serious... When scrolling down the screen trembles, but not always. As the hours go by, the times this issue arises diminish, so I hope it will go away within tomorrow.

Edit: yes the boot.img could be helpful. You're on the latest AICP right?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] NicestRudeGuy:
dude if its software prob flash stock rom to check everything is working fine

u just gave us a shock
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] bamiasHELLAS:
i have the same issue, i am on CM12.1 unofficial 810.

what can i do to help, would you like a log or a boot.img or something else?

BTW after i flashed this kernel my sp just flies !!!
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Thank you, since I'm on latest unofficial CM I don't need any help [emoji2]

I'll go back to stock ROM to see if the problem persists.

Reflash kernel via TWRP
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mosi.sh:
you mean screen freezes will gone but we will have screen flickering again ? or finally we will have a screen without any problem ?:D

and one question , anykernel is a update.zip that can unpak and repack kernel and ramdisk so it can be used with any rom and any android version ?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
About the screen problems, I've never had any except for the one I talked about a few hours ago but now it looks like it has gone away. Flickering is now fixed forever.

AnyKernel, theoretically, could let you install Tangerine on any ROM but I've already tested it on a stock-based ROM and it doesn't work. I was expecting a failure because there are many changes that were made for Lollipop, so even if it had booted, it would have broken a lot of things.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] flash-:
so about flickering ....you will update your kernel to .207 sources ? :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
It's already updated! Since v7.0 beta 1 or beta 2.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mosi.sh:
how ? with kernel source updated to .207 (like tagerine 7.1) ? if yes so i have screen freezes forever :crying:
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
The flickers are fixed in the source, the freezes will be fixed with the next Tangerine, which will be v8.0.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] mosi.sh:
oh what ? thank youuuuuuuuu bro:highfive::D so you know whats the problem that cause and the soloution . i wanna know . so please share some details and if it is private then please answer me in private message . and again thank you alot :cool:
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
No I don't know what's causing the freezes! Maybe the ramdisks, I'm just guessing.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Guizão BR:
I have screen frezees, but i dont think is the kernel cause this ,is the kernel, i think is the xperia sp because have only 1gb of ram
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] bamiasHELLAS:

I was on unofficial 810, and I found it not as quick

The I flashed Tangerine, and the phone got MUCH quicker but the screen began to flicker

I JUST FOUND that if you go in developer options and check the "Disable HW Overlays" the flickering goes away, and therefore I am very happy!!!

Hope it helps

BTW, if I uncheck the HW overlays it the phone continues to flicker

Hey guys, is CM12.1 Unofficial from August 12th (cm-12.1-20150812-UNOFFICIAL-huashan.zip) safe to use with Tangerine 7.1?

Any known bugs? Major issues?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] RandomUser017:
I know it was a lot of work to make 7.0/7.1 but I would rather go through the screen freezing/flickering problem than adding new features.

Take 6.6 as a base and keep adding the features from 7.1. And then see when the error occurs. If you don't have these bugs, let others test ;).

---------- Post added at 06:54 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 AM ----------

No, I am still on the 28/07 nightly. Because of reported bugs with calling or something.

---------- Post added at 06:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:54 AM ----------

AICP issues:

- I do not know any. I heard some calling issue but I don't confirm it.

Tangerine kernel issue:

- (not for all) Screen freezing and screen flickering.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] varioventus:
X-SP only have 3 versions, based on carrier frequencies, but hell so many flavours!

C5303, same PCB, same IC, but different behavious - some are plagued with screen flikering, some never en****er it, many X-SP experience screen freezing on Tangerine (including mine, especially on v7.x), but some don't! Man, but I know X-SP has personality!! ;)

By the way, "screen freezing" is more tha screen freezing and quickly develops into frozen device. Yes, at first, only the display will be unresponsive for a few sec, but if you'll use the power button, ones or twice, to turn off/on display, the entire device will became unresponsive.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] |>/\nte:
Greetings, I was wondering if I could flash the kernel like this: flash the boot.img via fastboot, then enter either of the recoveries and flag the .zip file like normal. I'm asking if this is possible because stupid cyanogen recovery refuses to flash the file. I'm running on a.i.c.p. 10.0, the 30-7-2015 nightly.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Tomoms:
Yes, that way is a correct way to flash the kernel.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Araib93:
I understand that F2FS isn't a major improvement over ext4 but it does make SP a little smooth.. One more request (I know I make a lot :p) if its possible can you add swap support in your kernel too? (SP has a little low ram resulting in a not so good multitasking to put it nicely, a swap support might make it better imo) but do whatever you see fit I am happy so far with your progress and I am pretty sure everyone else is too :) keep up the good work mate :good:

You have to restore your FOTAKernel partition restoring recovery backup via Rashr or flashing fotakernel.sin from a ftf

You could flash through Rashr a recovery available at CM12.1 thread (check my posts)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] nplezka:
Let me understand... If I flash the kernel image from Tangerine .zip with Flashtool I can resolve it?

Inviato dal mio Xperia SP con xda Forum
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] kontini:
no, because kernel image checks fotakernel image and if it is not original it loads recovery from Fotakernel so you have to change fotakernel to an original one to load the recovery inside the kernel image (via Flashtool) or to a recovery that you can find in my posts to load a recovery not included in kernel image (via Rashr)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] slim_guy:
In easy words ,flash stock kernel via flashtool or adb first
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] nplezka:
Uhm... a stock kernel. I can use a modified stock kernel .elf (like this for exemple) or I have to download all stock firmware and select only fotakernel? ç_ç

gpu overclocking is in the kernel ...choose the 0mhz (if you found it) or the first 400mhz(cuz you will find two of them ...the first one in 480mhz so it's overclocked )

and for the governor i think you mean smartass ...i didn't heard of one called smartmax :p

anyone that was removed due to it's incompatibility with new sources of the kernel :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] suliman lbabidi:
No it is really smartmax

I saw it in my brother's xperia L thunderzap kernel

And it has some other cool stuff

If you can port them to SP it would be great
