Darklord S6 Lite

Darklord S6 Lite - 719MB

Rom has been bareboned(half the size of the original darklord), meaning MOST of the apps are removed. You can either opt to use third party apps, replace them from here : http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/hot-galaxy-s6-apps-t3041330 (thanks to [MENTION=5403589]Albe95[/MENTION]) or wait for me to prepare flashable zips soon. Don't keep asking me for apps or pm me.

Changelog:

-Bluetooth fixed

-Sensors fixed(replaced some files from the stock rom, been using it for a day and it hasn't bugged out yet), so try it out and let me know. If it should hang, then reboot.

-Freezing/bootloop during reboots fixed (if you somehow get stuck during initial boot, just hold the power button and let your phone reboot. Popping out battery works too , but i haven't faced this issue yet)

-Cleaned up lib, bin and reworked some of the frameworks so no more battery drain

-Changed kernel to Voltaqe v.7.0 (use the Kernel Adiutor app which i have preinstalled in this rom, do not use Synapse)

-Edge settings removed

-Theme engine fully working without issues

Issues:

-Lock screen effect - make sure to change to popping colors lock screen effect else you will face system ui crashes.

-Some of the sound alive settings still dont work so you can disable sound alive and flash dolby atmos - (installer : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B41vn3z2sGFGSFVwNEJGN3dKYjQ/view?usp=sharing

uninstaller : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B41vn3z2sGFGVnB6ZkRMUmVoSTA/view?usp=sharing)

-Cant change screen lock type

-Bug with the video player, so disable it and install VLC or some other video app from playstore

Full wipe before flash is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

What's the better: DarkLord S6 or Aurora S6 Port V4.1 ?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Martillero:
[MENTION=6733758]Jay.Lent[/MENTION], Awesome mate! :good: thumbs up and hats off!
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Resmin:
I think for now Aurora S6 Port, bcoz it's more stable.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ali7557:
First impressions.

I think.

It works perfectly and is very light.

Compared to the first version, This is faster.

Accuweather smoothly and GPS.

We will look later on in battery life.(1 day after use.)

Very thanks [MENTION=6733758]Jay.Lent[/MENTION]

Not-There's a slight delay in the opening of the lock screen.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] LilMiracle:
Can you do the same fix for aurora rom?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] blascogm:
Thanks for you work, great rom. I need you apk: calendar, mail, recorder, browser, s health, calculator, etc. Thanks
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] jiro-kun:
Does this have the problem like aurora ROM. with the contact pictures have to be deleted, to answer calls?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] ziadnmr:
Yes
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] :
Common issue with the S6 dialer. Use contact picture remover app to remove all of the pics or use pics which are specially thumbnailed for contact size.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] jiro-kun:
Hi jay. Or may I call you ezio? :D:eek:

Anyhow i was wondering do you have any idea on any app that could make my pictures "specially thumbnailed for contact size"? As i love to have my contacts with their pictures in it. Is there a way around? Again thanks.

Good job
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] :
You can try this : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dk_squared_studio.resizemypix

It does batch resizing. 256 x 256 pixels should be androids native size.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] blascogm:
How fix gps?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] :
gps is working without issues.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] nanasoft:
Firstly, thanks a ton for the wonderful ROM. I got 2 x issues: the lock settings doesnt open (my official mail requires a PIN and doesnt accept swipe - unable to change).. Whenever i try to change and select lock settings, it says settings have stopped and kicks me out.. Also, people say my voice is very feeble on the calls. I have tried different providers / different places - but people still complain the voice to be feable..

Is this only me or any one else got similar issues?

EDIT:: And yes, rated 5 stars for this wonderful work.. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] :
Well, i've already listed the unlock issue on the bugs list. Alemtro is working on it, expect it to be fixed on his next update, and i will barebone it.

Regarding the voice, perhaps flashing another modem mite help ? Check prism thread , post 3 and try those out. Always remember to make an EFS backup. No voice issues here in my region though. Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Mogten:
Great work, my friend! Everything seems fast, lightweight and stable. I have been using it the past one hour without any issues save for video player fc. It FC's when touched while a video is playing... thus one cannot pause nor do anything else while video is playing. Could you give it a look at?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] drevan:
hi there. i got a big problem with my phone. ive searched but i couldn find anything.

ok when i press the call button instead of starting the Phone it opens Contacts and Calendar

and when i press the end button opens Calendar.

i dont know what the hell happen. i just froze yesterday and i softreset it (usual stuff) and after that it just happen.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] LGSilva:
You probably tryied already to softrest it again.

Did you install any new software?

Have you checked the button assignment on options?

If all fails, hardreset :/

Introduction:

About:

This Kernel is a port from the Z2/Z3/Z3C M5 Kernel based on the official CM12 kernel. It should work with any Rom using the stock CM kernel too (Like Carbon and Liquid). I'm mainly using PAC 5.1, and it's working sweet so far!

Installation Instruction:

THIS DOES ONLY WORK ON UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER!

When you're on CM/a CM based Rom:

Flash the zip file in recovery

When coming from Stock:

Flash the boot.img included in the zip file using fastboot. Flash a CM based Rom then and flash the Kernel zip file again as the Rom overrides the Kernel.

fixes

is the fix against black lines included ?

and maybe a fix for crappy notification sounds on cm12.1 with .ogg files ?

best regards
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
Black line fix is included, notification sounds are not related to the kernel.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] TECCC:
thank you very much

Download links added, you'll find the kernel under amami folder.

Have fun!

Oh yes that is known, and it will come in later versions ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] munjeni:
Minor, major version? Is this 3.4 based or 3.10 based?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] rzlatic:
cm based 3.4
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
It's still 3.4 based, but as soon as Camera is working on 3.10 Kernel I'm going to work on a 3.10 based M5 Kernel as I'll use it for Carbon and OmniROM builds for my devices too.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] munjeni:
You need to ask jerpelea to give you link to the commit on git when everything worked! Last time when I used his kernel everything is worked, only which was lag was some videos but camera if I am not wrong worked well!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] too.stoopid:
Does the kernel work with slim based roms? I have tried V7 and V7.9 with Tesla and unfortunately both are bootlooping.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Hazou:
Kernel works great. If I want to try F2FS support for the amami it doesn't work.

From my experience it is missing the f2fs mount strings in the fstab.qcom file in the ramdisk. Any chance u can add the mounting lines in the fstab file so I don't have to manually apply them?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Deleted member 4819888:
If you're sure that this is the problem, gladly :D

Just to be safe though, would you send me how fstab.qcom should look like? That way I won't make any unfortunate mistakes :cool:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Schlengge:
Wow finally a kernel for CM12.

Thanks a lot!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] kristof93:
EAP wifi fix maybe? Or is that not kernel related?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Deleted member 4819888:
no it is most probably kernel related (not sure though)

However, no fix has been found as of yet, at least I haven't stumbled upon one ;)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Schlengge:

[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
Hello. Sorry for the request (yes, we have time, since we appreciate your free and great contribution here! :) )

but M5 kernel may need an update:

Problems with new RR Rom + M5 V10: http://xdaforums.com/sony-xperia-z1...n-remix-lollipop-t2996231/page92#post63390906

Any experimental build with synced sources towards updated CM or RR out there, which one could try for an recent build of October?

best wishes! and thanks for your great kernel builds for ours Z1C!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
No, the thing is not that it does not work, the problem is that my build server (the server of a friend of mine) is not working atm (propably something firewall related or so) and I need to investigate that. Due to school and stuff I have not yet been able to fix that however, nor did I have time to manually build everything on my own PC. I'll look into adding my PC to my jenkins setup as a temp solution, and see if I can compile it over there. Let's hope that works without any problems. Maybe I'll also find some time to fix my friends server tomorrow, it's at the very top of my ToDo List.

10.1 is up

Hey guys, I managed to find some free time, and finally compiled and uploaded a 10.1 Build. Basically it only includes CM Upstream commits (about 200 of them), and should work flawless with the newest CM builds, I am running it with the

OFFICIAL

20151016 release of Carbon ROM on my Z3 here (excuse me, but some advertisement needs to be placed :) ). I hope you enjoy it :P

Regards
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Gronkdalonka:
Thanks a lot, wifi is working again on RR 5.5.8 :good:
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
wow. your are faster than a hero! ;) thanks
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] glehel:
10.1 is a problem. freeze the phone after boot up. After entering the pin code immediately. when he restarts the Sony logo was not only a black screen. many times I reset volumeup + power button (15-20), twrp try with great difficulty came in the recovery which is the Fota partition.

I did not have usb cable was on the way. I thought it was totally broken on the phone.

it broke two times.

rom the RR 5.5.8. 10.1 + M5.

Why not start the kernel after a freeze?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] :
Sorry that happened to your device :(

The last commit from cm seems to be incompatible with m5,and is causing the issue.

I'll see if i can find the error somehow today.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] glehel:
No problem. I thank you for your work so far! Only indicated a problem.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
for me newest RR + m5 kernel works flawless since 2 days. tested many things.

sio + alucard or smartmax + -50 mv uv are favorite combination.

WiFi, GPS all working.

BUT also had reboots : I had to start with RR 5.5.8 after a complete wipe . tried 3 times with dirty flash. - I think the kernel seems to be stable . by the way I use twrp recovery
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Horst the Animal:
Can you write me a pm with your kernel settings pls? :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] rzlatic:
why pm, make it public :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
i would, but don't find the kernelaudiutor config file folder/location. it seems to be just in the app?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
Tools -> Profile. This Profile is saved as a XML File IIRC, and will be be shareable.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
I Don't have this option. Maybe because I have non-donate version of kernelaudiutor?

Nevertheless I played a lot of around with the kernel in old times (e.g. fine adjusting scheduler) but now I would not have much to share:

so following my manual changes coming from "stock M5 kernel settings"

- global -50 uv

- f-range: 286 - 1728 MHz

- scheduler smartmax (in my opinion best between battery (but some microlags) and speed). If you can't live with micro-lags try alucard also cool ratio deepsleep/battery

- sio for internal and sd-card (sees to be superior to all others concerning deep sleep and is responsive)

- hot-plug MSM MPDecision (for battery, my normal); alucard (for speed (very cool never get micro-lags) normally do not use it)

- entropy read 512, write 1024

- sound: all +4 db

---> but these I just my settings, everybody has different opionions about speed (I never play games) and battery (I charge every 2nd day, mostly around 2 screentime per day)

--> if on lte, doing nothing (traveling by car, meeting at work) I have ~88-94 % deep sleep. But that is just because I tuned a lot of for battery.*

*battery:

- greenify

- disable many apps, even cm ones (radio, music, ant hal service) and make excessive use of privacy guard (almost every app forbidden to autostart, keep awake)

- then the most greatest in the world against these damn google-services: the RR build-in WAKEUP-blocker

- some tunings in build.prop. but I think they are more magic as real ("customtelephoneproviders" and such stuff)

- I just use as less apps as possible (no weather-apps (why do they need access for contacts?), have a link in browser; no facebook; but whatsapp)

- adblock in hosts + firewall to forbid some cleaning/tuning tools which need no internet (always wondering why they need so much access to everything)

- some nasty services disabled with service disabler (I don't use bluetooth, nevertheless it cause some wakelocks --> so i disabled)

Most impact on battery life (forget kernel, forget apps): tame this google stuff!

Yes, I'm not normal, it is more a contest for me to get more and more deep-sleep times. up to 94% and being reachable by phone and whatsapp is quite cool.

(but I have all I need: email, gps/cards, photo and browser. For music I have an ipod, for serious surfing a laptop, playing/chating: I don't have time)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] glehel:
Now I've noticed that the 10.1 kernel is very difficult to boot . black screen for a long long time . I suppose if the version with M5 v10 and RR remix kernel is good, there is no waiting period. what is the problem?

---------- Post added at 11:01 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:57 AM ----------

good option!

I recently automat will not turn off the wifi, and is correct.

I never find what.?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] :
[MENTION=5302804]glehel[/MENTION] the cause of this is a commit from cm that's not compatible with m5 for some reason.

[MENTION=3816568]Myself5[/MENTION] DO IT!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ernest-sora:
I got the black screen issue too. It boots fine the first two times and then it won't even show the sony logo. Is there any fix to this?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
i don't had any troubles with RR and/or m5 kernel and/or recovery.

bit one had this with another ROM. if the phone seems to be broken: flashing an original kernel.IMG (or less download: tuned one for stock rom) and afterwards recovery. img via fastboot helped on my last case of similar situation.

you will have to begin from the scratch but I suggest not to panik!

---------- Post added at 07:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:32 AM ----------

so the comment above is just if in no case Sony logo shows up and you are not able to get any access to any recovery
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] glehel:
I upgraded the ta partition. and it operates a real recovery. That's not be surprised :)
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ernest-sora:
Well I didn't panic, thanks for worrying, I just flashed a boot.img to get to the recovery. I can't seem to make RR and M5 kernel to work. It always goes to a complete blank screen. I just know that it happens after I use kernel adiutor. Can someone provide me with your install method?

I did a full wipe with TWRP, then I flashed RR + M5 + Xposed v75

It boots fine first two times and then it won't boot anymore.

Is CM recovery safe to use?

I also installed powernap, greenify, amplify and mobile radio fix. Could any of those cause the problem?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] GNUDroid:
1 cmrecovery: i don't know. I missed many funcrions, just used twrp

2 where does it hang at boot?

3 causing problems: greenify: unlikely never had problems, amplify? the app or increase volumes? last can be made with the kernel settings. radio fix I don't know but it sounds dangerous.

4 try without xposed. in my 5 years and 3 android devices and many ROMs it was the cause of problems ... also phone is slower. what function do you need? we have wakeupblocker + privacy already build in in this great RR ROM. ... that was in old times the reason why I tried xposed

I normally install all thinks ROM, kernel, restore apps. then make a nandroid backup. all tuning, risky things like xposed afterwards. ... in case I can quickly go back to a working ROM with my needed apps

BUT now we are going off topic here for the m5 kernel discussion. if we continue, we should do elsewhere to keep this threat clean
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] glehel:
Now I confirmed that the item M5 kernel works very nicely. 10.1 it is not yet 100 % compatible with 5.5.8 RR remix . I've noticed so far only boot problems . independent from very stable.

the boot is not always possible but if you are patient starts well :)

Now I use alucard hotplug / alucard governor / sioplus / 512 is very efficient.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
V10.2

Hey guys,

V10.2 is currently compiling, you can check the progress here: http://myself5.de:12345/job/M5Kernel All Devices/

It's basically a bug/derpfix build, but also added some new under the hood changes.

Changelog:

Fix Soft Reboots on rhine devices

Add Oneshot Sync

Tweak kgsl

Fix loading of LZMA Compressed Recoverys

Regards
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Gronkdalonka:
I flashed it and so far it's running pretty well
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] ernest-sora:
Thanks. I will test it right now.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] rzlatic:
what's the date of code sync to cm repo? in their build of 1113 there was commits to kernel again, same day as 10.2 was built.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
All recent changes (even till today) are included into 10.2.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] phry:
I noticed that my wifi stopped working. I flashed a few days ago from 9 (or 9.9.10-TEST, not really sure) to 10.2, but didn't pay attention back then what my wifi was doing.

Could this be kernel-related?

Currently running Slim-5.1.1 beta

PS: it hangs at "turning wifi on"
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Gronkdalonka:
Wifi is working fine here on Resurrection Remix 5.5.8
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Got the same thing with latest M5 on official CM12. Flashed stock boot.img and rebooted, and WiFi works again. I figured it was common and there was a fix, but haven't looked into it yet. Has there not been other reports?
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Myself5:
The Kernel is too new for your Rom. On the last Version (from 10 to 10.1) CM merged some upstream changed which were wifi related and now cause incompatibility between the new kernel and the old wifi blobs you guys still use in the Rom you are running. Try updating you Rom, or try V10.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] phry:
The unfortunate thing is that the new version fixed the regular soft resets, so I'd really like to keep the new version - on the other hand, I'm very happy with my old ROM and there's no newer version available. But I need the wifi for work :/

But if I have to switch, I'll have to switch... Is there any ROM for the Z1C you can recommend personally? Most other ROMs I tried were either bloated or unstable.
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Latest official nightly, (yesterday)..
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] phry:
hmm. had some bad nightlies but I guess I've got to try once more
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] Ravermeister:
I'm having issues with 2.4 GHz wifi in combination when Bluetooth is active.

this is a known issue to CM12.1 --> https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-1073
[Xperia Z1 Compact Android Development] levone1:
Anything happening with MM support? I just flashed Vanir MM and it looks great, but still issues, one of which is no Wi-Fi. I have never gotten Wi-Fi to work on Vanir 5.1 unless I used M5 kernel, so I thought you might have some hope for us to use with 6. Thanks
