hi,

i have a question about dt2w.

which commits to add to kernel to make it work for togari.

your dt2w kernel is using follwing commit?

https://github.com/venkatkamesh/and...mmit/24469b4b1c00e44ffe8c07aaf74d89f12a3953aa

i ask because on github you reverted all dt2w commits.

thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Tommy-Geenexus:
Forget dt2w. Will never work properly. Esp. not with some code kang from Moto G.

[MENTION=4433143]venkat kamesh[/MENTION]

Its working on my Ultra 6833...but it seems the performance is not improved...I'm experiencing stuttering in every app i open, some slow performance then with stock kernel...

Still have memory leak issues.

Color control setting doesn't stick with red green and blue...only saturation setting stick...even save on boot...

Phone will random reboot in heavy workload...
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] venkat kamesh:
Check newer commits ;)

May be its slow then

Please get back to your kernel or Someother mate..

I don't have device to check on how it's working..

And the modules with my device it worked for our devices ...

And the same souce can be worked for ultra as well

If you got something to ask me about bug

provide with log them and question me else don't :)
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Tommy-Geenexus:
And? Wake was reverted, clearpad wake code was left. Togari does not use clearpad.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] venkat kamesh:

Could some one link me to any working source

Reboot, enter recovery and restore your ROM backup.

Or just reflash the stock kernel again.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Sithu Htun:
Flashed .270 version on .242.

Kcal works. OC works. Everything else seems to be working fine except dt2w.

Dt2w is the only feature I wanted.

Thank you for creating this awesome kernel, anyways.

Keep up the good work, bro.

I will be waiting for the dt2w.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
In order to make this kernel work with XSLIM 3.20 (.270 version) the only way is NOT to install XZDualRecovery during the XSLIM installation process. Otherwise this kernel wont boot with XSLIM.

If you have already flashed the ROM with XZDualRecovery then it wont work. You need to re-flash it.

Any Idea what I am missing here ?

Flashed the latest kernel version but there is no the new "Pimp my ZU" updated app. There is still the old Pimp my Z1 app from the previous version. Tried to unistall it and re-flash the kernel, with Titanium and i cant find the .apk to remove it.

Any solution?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] venkat kamesh:
Oh but it worked and the one who tested this got working with app working

Please be sure mate every thing works

DT2W confirmed works and OC of CPU and GPU by Pimp My ZU.

Just test on Games it's really got improved.

Antutu is 37xxx.

Just a bit lag but I think it's because the SONY based.

Before this, the GPE is smooth without lag.

But I still like OC and the DT2W.

Hope you can fix it from sometimes to always!

BTW, battery life is normal!

Few people claimed that in XSLIM thread.

I tried, got into boot loop, any trick to make the magic?

Strange, tried CWM instead of TWRP, got into the system. Everything is OK now! Can't reach 42k score for Antutu. But the game experience is so awesome!!!! Just like a new phone in 2015!

DT2W

well, if you managed to make it work then enlighten us and tell us how to enable it bcuz i dont actually belive any of you who calim that this feature works on your phone bcuz i tried literally everything to make it work but nothing happens so....
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
For me dt2w works . Not 100% but most of the time, I can say that 8 out of 10 tries are successful.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] shekarbasha@gmail.com:
i too had the same problem but atlast got this kernel to work. I am on c6802 xslim 3.2. what i did was

1)install the kerenel (bootloop occurs.. dont worry)

2)get into recovery by pressing any of the volume keys.

3)wipe data+cache+system+dalvik+insternal sd(optional)

4)Install the xslim ROM but make sure u uncheck the STOCK KERNEL & DuaL recovery.

5)reboot and wait Patiently for 5mins.

6)Done.

This worked for me. Hope it works for u too.

Now I am enjoying superb performance with

2.4 Ghz overclocked processor + LionHeart CPU Governor

533 Mhz overclocked GPU + Performance GPU Governor

2000mah faster Charging & better sound.

Thanks a ton for the developer of this kernel. I was long waiting for such a kernel since the Lollipop upgrade.

earlier when I was with Kitkat i used the Doom kernel. Now this kernel is still better one.

I loved the double tap to wake the device feature. Its working fine 9/10 times.

i m using intelliPlug FYI
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Godaemon:
Which hotplug do you use??
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Senyaka:

I am having problems finding any .283 Roms. Which ones are you guys using?
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] Unknown_2517:
When your screen is off, the phone going to deep sleep and you don't need to do anything.

Dt2w is on by default. For now can't turn on or off this feature by pimpZu.

I think this kernel is best and dt2w doesn't affect battery life ever.

I downloaded Greece (.283) rom from xperiafrim and created ftf from it with flashtool.

But if you flash your phone with (.283) your signal will be lost. You need to flash only baseband from (.270) rom to get signal again.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] cougar11:
Works great here with eXistenZ rom, get a random reboot every now and then, but I can live with that, without kernel rom runs great, dt2w works great too!

[MENTION=4433143]venkat kamesh[/MENTION]

Could you, please, include xt_HL.ko ("TTL Target Support" module (Terminal - ... make menuconfig / Networking Support - Networking Options - Network packet filtering framework - IP:Netfilter Configuration - IPTables Support - Packet mangling))?

I have tried, using Ubuntu 15.10, your source files from GitHub and 2014.12 Linaro GCC 4.9.3 with Cortex A15 optimizations, to recompile your kernel and get this file. Sometimes i got error messages in PC's terminal (i have also tried other cross-compilers), sometimes I got error in mobile terminal, trying to use "insmod" to insert the module into firmware. At the end of the day there was no succesful result in getting this module to work properly.

When I tried original Sony sources with original GCC 4.8, it worked fine on the original Android 5.1.1 (.236) from Sony. So, maybe, I have done something wrong with your kernel?

I would like to get this file, because my Mobile Carrier (Beeline, Russia) prevents 3G/LTE-WiFi Tethering by detecting TTL.

[IMG="example for mobile carrier "Yota" in Russia."]http://cs3-4.4pda.to/6681678/2.jpg?001bd92a53a77379571e17ee00000000699923a370973e39de69df98b4f09b9d[/IMG]

It blocks any TTL, different from 64 or 128, so there is no option to successfully change the TTL on Z Ultra, and it's not easy to change TTL (to 64+1=65) on my friends' non-rooted and non-jailbroken devices. The only way, i have found, to bypass this limitation - use

iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o rmnet0 -j TTL --ttl-set 64

to fix TTL for all outgoing packages from Z Ultra to 64 (even for those, passing from devices, connected to Z Ultra's Hotspot). But it needs ""TTL" Targer Support" module to work.

I, guess, i would be glad, if you could help to solve this issue (by teaching me something or including this module into kernel).

P.S. Sorry for my English.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinci5:
Hi guys,

I have a galxy S4 I9505.

After the lollipop update a while ago my device kept rebooting 10 min after the update and became extremely hot after a couple of reboots.

After a factory reset the problem was gone for two weeks and then came back.

I did a factory reset again and and now, 10 days later, it's back.

Now I'm doing a factory reset while writing this post, but it is becoming pretty annoying.

Anyone knows what the issue could be and how to solve it?

Some info:

Not using any microSD card.

Tried different battery any apps. I was still with Touchwiz and the default apps.

Tried to only wipe cache partition

Device is not rooted and never was.

Warranty is expired.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Well, if it is getting too hot then that might be one reason.

Since you don't have any warranty you might want to try a custom rom.

If you're a touchwiz fan then go for the touchwiz roms.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dinci5:
I'm not a Touchwiz fan. I'm actually using Nova launcher for quite some time :)

But I left everything as it was just to make sure no apps or launchers are causing the reboots.

It's really weird cuz it just starts rebooting out of nothing.

Last time the phone was on the table then I heard the startup sound.

Btw, after the reboot it doesn't ask for a SIM PIN. It stays on for 5-10 seconds and reboots again.

I might try a custom ROM indead. But if that doesn't help I don't really know what to do else :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
I guess that's a hot reboot or soft reboot. They are both the same. It doesn't turn the phone off completely. It just restarts the OS I guess.

I don't know if this is just an isolated case , but a few minutes ago I was "fiddling" with my stylus while waiting for my Ameo to boot up , When I realised the tip has a rough , almost sharp feel to it ! I don't know if it is a moulding fault or what - but It certainly feels capable of scratching the screen badly ! , Mine seems OK (thankfully) but TBH I haven't really used it a lot

So please check you stylus , better to be safe than sorry & I'd be interested to know if this is a common thing
