I think it doesnt support F2FS

It is surprising :victory: (at 60th version), because if i flash Helium v60 (P) both with LineageOS 16 (stable) and AOSP 9 (stable), without gapps and anything, it stuck at logo. :rolleyes:

Both roms support this file system and normal boot without this kernel.

I have formated only Cache and Data. I have C5303.

If you make it supporting F2FS, you will get good performance increase.

And when i go to recovery before logo stuck, recovery (TWRP 3.3.1.0) freezes at some time or phone will restart by itself, so it would be dangerous when i flash rom and it freezes. :cyclops:

It can brick phone or something else i think. :confused:

Edit: When i tried oreo version of this kernel with latest aosp extended v5.4(without gapps), it worked, but little bit laggy at start. So i think problem is with pie. I havent tried with Marshmallow and nougat.

Edit1/1: After some hours usage, big battery drain in AOSP-EX. I charged my SP to 100 percent at time 18:00 and i go sleep. At 22:40 it have 39 percent and i changed only maximum cores in sleep state in kernel auditor hotplug from 2 to 1 for less battery usage when is in sleep state and illinois TCP/IP. I havent use it. Around 2 hours at morning it have 7 percent and at half to six - phone discharged. Havent used except look at time and without GAPPS ! But good performance with maple I/O sheduler tho and impulse cpu governor. Maybe this config make battery drain, but maple and impulse is default in Helium. I have noticed, less CPU usage than 50 percent isnt. And i have looked in running services, but there is nothing strange, so i dont know why every time have CPU more than 50 percent.

Edit2: I tried oreo version with LineageOS 15.1 and same problem with pie - bootloop. So i dont know where is the problem causing bootloop.

Every kernel i had, has problem somewhere.

BTW i more liked Fusion kernel for SP, but i think is only for nugát and less. :good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Hello, I have no idea what happened to you. My kernel supports f2fs normally. In fact, I'm using it.

By the way, the new version is almost ready! Not sure how many of you SP users are still here, but anyway, I'm going to release it, as I had promised. It'll support Oreo and Pie, but not Nougat.

EDIT: It's finally here, 9 months after the last update :)

The kernel is now updated with lots of features and all the improvements Adrian has implemented recently.

In case you're still using Helium v60, dirty flash your ROM before updating to v61.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
The new version is out. [MENTION=5738548]shavendum[/MENTION] [MENTION=5798895]yunamunchy[/MENTION] please test CPU frequencies and report :) [MENTION=6681358]Alvichone[/MENTION] [MENTION=5662807]Andreus94[/MENTION] please test msm_mpdecision hotplug and see if the device comes out of deep sleep :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arturk8791:
I installed new version, cpu freq works fine :D

Thanks for incallui touchscreen fix
[Xperia SP Android Development] shavendum:
No issues for now. Cpu scaling is fixed. Testing mpdecision.smooth and stable.
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
Ok so.. i will try the V3.1 and see if the faux sound will work with me, wondering if its only me who having this issue :?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Alvichone:
Testing new mpdecision: works fine for now after 3 minutes on deep sleep, similar time when didn't work in helium v.3.

Good work [MENTION=2854006]tommons[/MENTION].
[Xperia SP Android Development] AdrianDC:
If one of you has a touchscreen issue after a long sleep, please don't report it,

I already fixed it normally and [MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] will probably merge it to Helium's next release.
[Xperia SP Android Development] steveglowplunk:
Is the swap problem fixed in this version?:confused:
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
No. I don't know how to fix it.
[Xperia SP Android Development] OsGhaly:
[MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] Does V.3.1 contain this fix now
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
v3.2 has got the fix.
[Xperia SP Android Development] JhonesMillionBR:
Swap is resolved in v3.2 ?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Arturk8791:
I have in v3.2 after wake from deep sleep freeze and reboot :(
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
I've already said that I don't know how to solve swap issue.

After the freeze and reboot, send me this file: /proc/last_kmsg and tell me your kernel settings. Are you using swap?
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
[MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] after i flashed V3.2 everytime i open kernel adiutor the phone freezes then i get a hot reboot, im back now on V3.1

---------- Post added at 09:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:02 PM ----------

Nevermind its not about kernel adiutor its the kernel itself giving hot reboots nearly every 1 minute andi faced an insane vibration from the phone before it freezed and then rebooted, heres 2 files after 2 different reboots. hope it helps
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Weird. It seems that the filesystem of one of your partitions (data or system or cache I think) is kind of damaged, but since on v3.1 it doesn't happen, that's weird. I'll try a fix that solves some problems of this type in v3.3.
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
Yea on V3.1 and the previous versions i didn't get any trouble, only on V3.2 hot reboots started. is the dirty flashing thing is related about those reboots in V3.2? i flashed it above the V3.1, not the stock kernel.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
I've dirty flash 3.2 and have no problems..maybe some settings releated issue?
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
I don't think so, but my settings are almost default, im on demandPlus with frequency of 1944MH , the hotplug is the default MPDesicion.. anything else should i mention?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
I dirty flashed v3.2 on top of 3.1 and I haven't got any problem. Try to flash v3.2 on top of default kernel.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
Maybe the overclock with that governor generate overheating? I don't really know
[Xperia SP Android Development] jurko217:
(Updated review) Okay.

I have installed today Helium v61 with latest stable LOS 16 without gapps and some build.prop tweaks, i can say now, kernel is up-to-date !

No issues in 5 hours of using. Some problems with stock kernel (like lags) is issued, no bootloops, no lags, battery drain is optimal. If this flawless state stays in some days of using, i wanna to have this phone as my primary.

Only one minimal thing i have found, in Geekbench 4, app FC in 30 percent of compute (mostly GPU) benchmark.

Here is my attached score in Geekbench.

how to install it on Lineageos 16.0-20190816-UNOFFICIAL-huashan ? wheather procedure is same as like helium v60 ?. kernel permissive patcher is required to install after helium v61 ?
[Xperia SP Android Development] jurko217:
Error 7 for Oreo version

I cant install it with oreo. V61 (O) version of Helium cannot be installed.

I tried install it with LOS 15.1, AOSP-Ex, AOSP, ComicOS, XenonHD, but TWRP say:

Unsupported android version, aborting...

Error 7. I tried too dirty install, reboot to recovery but no difference.

Pie (LOS 16) no problem for now.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
I am a bit of an idiot and I forgot to change the supported Android version in the zip. I'll post an updated version within a few hours.

EDIT: [MENTION=9961041]jurko217[/MENTION] the new zip for O is available. This is the download link: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962585696

It should install properly now!
[Xperia SP Android Development] Evilmonk100:
[MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] how to install it on Lineageos 16.0-20190816-UNOFFICIAL-huashan ? whether procedure is same as like helium v60 (P) ?. kernel permissive patcher is required to install after helium v61 (P) ?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
You flash it via TWRP just like any other zip file. No need to flash the SELinux patcher afterwards!
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
One year has passed since the last time I've updated my kernel. No matter how small the SP community has obviously become, now that we have got LineageOS 17.1 thanks to the work of our legendary Adrian, I might release an update for my kernel, sooner or later.

Cheers
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Ok, here I am with Helium kernel v62. Rebased on top of Adrian's latest sources, compatible with LineageOS 17.1 (no support for O/P ROMs!).

Built with the very latest GCC 10 compiler, a bunch of bug fixes and kernel source updates have been implemented as well.

It seems to be working smoothly on my SP :)

Download here.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ze7zez:
Is the default overclocking of 20% not too much?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
What do you mean? Overclocking is disabled by default, and I don't understand what you mean with "20%".
[Xperia SP Android Development] ze7zez:
The screenshot explains.

p.s.

XDA has some problems with png display. I will fix it right away.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Oh, now I understand. This is not a problem. When you boot the phone, for the first few seconds the CPU is fired up at its maximum frequency (1998 MHz), and it stays there until the frequency scaling subsystem of the kernel is set up by the init scripts, which also take care of lowering the maximum frequency to the normal 1728 MHz. So those 16 seconds spent at the maximum frequency are the first 16 seconds immediately after the moment you turned the phone on. If you keep the phone turned on for some time, the percentage of uptime they represent will obviously decrease.
[Xperia SP Android Development] CGmimi:
Hi guys,

Just a question, Helium Kernel works with this last ROM : lineage-17.1-20201025-UNOFFICIAL-huashan.zip ?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Yes, it does.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Jadimo:
Hello,

has someone tried to change the z-ram size ?

Thought that i could play with different values but couldn't change it via kernel adiutor :/
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
You can edit the file

/system/vendor/etc/fstab.qcom

At its end, you'll see this number: 805306368. That's the default ZRAM disksize, expressed in bytes. You can change it to whatever you want. Then save and reboot :)

You'll have to remount /system in read-write mode, there's a cool file manager called FX that allows you to do so.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ACB10:
I'm having problems with the GPU clock, when playing with time it drops to 320 MHz. Is it possible to lock in 400 MHz?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Helium v63 is available. Works very well with Adrian's latest LineageOS 17.1 :)

If you download Smartpack Kernel Manager, you can set the GPU governor to "performance", which will lock the frequency at 400 MHz.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
Coming soon: Helium kernel v64, with Android 11 support :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Aorin1:
I'm still using CM13 (Android 6.0.1) for years on my Xperia SP, it's stable and solid since 2016.

What Kernel version do you recommend for me, I'm specially interested in OC?

In case I decided to update Android to the Lineage 17 or higher, is it possible that the kernel features Kcal to so we can easily control the backlight and even turn it off when I'm using it via MHL to connect it to the TV?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
The latest version of my kernel compatible with Android 6 is this one: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=11410963190603865840

I'm not actively developing the kernel for Android 6 anymore, so if you find any bug (there shouldn't be any major one), I won't ever fix it.

Kcal is not present in the kernel because if I recall correctly it is not supported by the SP, but there still is a color control interface that allows you to do the same things Kcal does, I think. Make use of the Smartpack Kernel Manager app to access it.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Aorin1:
Sweet! I flashed it and the device is smoother than before, I checked Smart Pack and I can even OC the CPU to basically 2GHz!

I tried using the Display Backlight LCD and other Display color settings, but it seems it won't work for it, I still rely on the old and abandoned Screen Standby which works in 6.0.1.

I have one question, though, while I can create a Performance profile and turn it on whenever I need, setting the minimum CPU frequency doesn't seem to work, no matter the governor I set it to, it even goes down to 137 Mhz which is lower than the older kernel I was using.

It's like the it doesn't lock the minimum frequency, let's say 800mhz, is there anything I'm doing wrong?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
My kernel features a CPU boosting driver that raises the minimum CPU frequency when needed, to give a small performance boost. For this reason, this driver is the only one that is allowed to change the minimum frequency. You cannot change it. 137 MHz is an underclocked frequency I've added, that could possibly help in saving a tad of power when idling.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Aorin1:
Edit: I've installed Fusion Kernel 1.4 and that one does what I needed.
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
I flashed it again on top of stock kernel and the phone freezed and rebooted after 12 seconds of booting, i wasn't even able to change the default settings of the kernel!

I'm back now on V3.1
[Xperia SP Android Development] Alvichone:
In kernel adiutor's settings/apply on boot change the delay to 20s or more. Then you'll have time to change options when reboot.

It's weird, I have installed v.3.2 over v.3.1 and all is good.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Gabrieljbl:
Tom. As promised. I've tested the kernel. So far, so good. LiveDisplay works perfect. If anything comes up. I'll report. :) keep it up.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
v3.3 will be released in a couple of hours. No big changes, just the latest patches picked by Adrian and Marcelo + enforcing SELinux.

[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
Ok, i will try to be the first in flashing it, btw i flashed v3.2 on the latest CM13 build and i got the same result just like in lollipop, lets wait and hope :D
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
Well.. i flashed V3.3 over the stock kernel of CM13 and just like always, the phone freezed after 1 minute and hot rebooted, seems helium kernel hates my SP :D

And guess what, when i reflashed the stock kernel img (by twrp) the WiFi was broken, this is the first time my WiFi gets broken after a restore of the original kernel, so that o gotta reflash the whole rom to get it working, btw here's the last kmsg in attachments
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
It looks like you have set the max freq to 1944 MHz. It's "normal" that the first time you do that the phone reboots. After the reboot, you'll be able to enable and disable the CPU overclock without issues.
[Xperia SP Android Development] AbboodSY:
Ok so, [MENTION=2233641]Adrian DC[/MENTION] and [MENTION=5727088]Tomoms[/MENTION] i really wanna ask you as you both are working and have knowledge in our device's kernel, we have 2 types of kernels for SP, the first kernel for it and which was used in the old builds of CM12/.1 and it has 1 big bug which is the flickering, and the second kernel which is now being used in our builds of CM12.1 and CM13 and this kernel has another bug which is really annoying and its when the screen freezes and turns to yellowish into black for around 5 or 6 seconds..

The question is, is those 2 bugs are permanent and impossible to fix or it can be fixed but only Sony can do this?

Sorry for the long post but this is very important issue for every SP's user and btw I've just faced the yellowish freeze screen while writing this post...

Sent from my STRYDER ROM for Xperia SP.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
The first bug is solved in the .207 stock kernel and since its sources have been merged into our current CM kernel the bug is fixed. The second one is a bug I've never experienced.
[Xperia SP Android Development] AdrianDC:
Same here. But I heard of it the other day, only a few users experience it, probably due to a different display manufacturer.

I plan on looking into it some day.

[Xperia SP Android Development] Unusual Man:
Very nice kernel - in my opinion of course and maybe not only my :o

But can we try again with GPU OC?

I lost the thread and do not know why abandoned this part.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Tomoms:
I've been trying (secretly) since the beginning of December, but still no luck...
[Xperia SP Android Development] Unusual Man:
What's happening?

It doesn't want to work at a higher frequency (OC) or does not start, or what is the problem? :crying:

I know this is the Nexus 5 forum but Secure Spaces only has a thread here. Are there any plans to bring it to the newer Nexus devices?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JeffRt:
We are working on porting to Marshmallow currently to support Nexus 5x and 6P, we will release this ROM when it is ready. Thanks for asking.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] driekus33:
Thanks for such a speedy reply. I look forward to seeing more of it.

A quick question, is the virtualization used a Xen virtualization?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] schwarzlichtkind:
You really got my interest here, this looks really awesome. I just like to know, if there are some extra settings for customization included, or if this is pure stock.

Another thing is, that I like to use xposed with xprivacy - I doubt that xposed is working here, or?
[Nexus 5 Android Development] zerosum0:
On my one sim 16 gig Nexus. Waste of time. My lenovo zuk 1, two sim, 64gig,yup handy
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JeffRt:
HI driekus33 , we are not using Xen. We create separated spaces "virtual phones" using a combination of kernel mods (ecryptfs, pid namespaces etc) , framework mods and applications to achieve this. I will provide more technical details in this thread for those that are interested. Thanks for the question.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JeffRt:
Hi schwarzlichtkind, I am not sure what you mean by extra settings - but we provide a way for you to divide your device into multiple spaces or "virtual phones" and also the ability to create a hidden space "virtual phone". You can push what ever apps you want into these spaces and customize based off of stock AOSP. Our ROM does not support xposed.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JeffRt:
Hi zerosum0, Can you expand on your "Waste of time"? I think keeping a hidden space and a personal space with only a few important apps will help reduce the impact of memory. For example in your hidden space you may just have a set of Tor apps and in a personal space you might use this to try new games or apps you want to ensure do not get access to your personal data (contacts etc..). I am glad you like it on your Lenovo zuk 1. Thanks for the feedback.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JeffRt:
I would also argue you no longer need Xprivacy. When you create a space this space is isolated from the owner space , mulit user data separation (and also encrypted using ecryptfs) , plus we have enabled pid namespaces in the kernel. Anything running in the additional space cannot access anything in the owner space (this includes contacts, sensitive data etc). You can also control the network access for this space as well using a number of exposed attributes. We have made this very easy for you to have strong and secure separation.
[Nexus 5 Android Development] JeffRt:
More Hidden Space apps have be uploaded to the Play Store...
[XDA Assist] XDA Visitor:
So i recently got a tablet and rooted it everything was working fine but now all of a sudden pull down menu and all home page menus are gone and the SystemUI.apk is no where to be found little bit about the tablet its a proscan PLT8801K its running android 4.1.1 kernel is 3.0.8 any help with this would be great been looking online for 2 days and havent found anything to help also i have tried different launchers with no luck
[XDA Assist] OfficerJimLahey:
Hello, and welcome to XDA! :cowboy:

Unfortunately, no launcher will fix that. An important (likely custom-made-for-your-device) file disappeared (maybe even more than that one file, really). Seems that only a return to stock image will fix that.

Sadly, there are no resources here for your tablet. You can ask in the general help thread, and is still a good idea to, I just feel there is a lot of luck to be involved. Maybe you will find another device owner.

Hope this helps, and good luck! :)
