I sent you a pm, please check it out:')
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] LilBlinx:
Ask questions as much as you want. I think it's a kernel problem. There are several checks that the kernel makes according to klog. The kernel panics and cannot work as it should after that. I've experienced the same problem as you did but a simple restart solves it. Also the touch screen might work improperly by going nuts with the touches or not work at all. It happens only when the phone wakes from deepsleep. Simple reboot solves that also. I haven't checked for the headphones issues but about the touch screen it's the cyttsp5 driver that causes those issues, the roadrunner module to be exact. I've changed my screen with another OEM from another Xperia M4 and I think it checks the panel ID, fails to find it and this problem encounters.

Here works too, on the M4
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Did some dirty hacks here and there (my first time doing this kernel thingy - did it just to get a reasonable performance out of it :silly: ).

I haven't came across any optimization flags that caused problems with the kernel booting though.

I included the wlan.ko modules otherwise some modifications would just cause the wifi to fail working (dani020110 can better explain this to you). Updating the linux kernel version without the wlan.ko modules will also cause the wifi to fail working.

The only toolchain I tested are UberTC and Google's 4.9 one - the latter caused the kernel to not boot.

hi, has anyone managed to pass safetynet on this kernel? no matter what i do, i can't get it to work. i flashed unSU, removed superSU, disabled debugging and tried several variants of magisk, but nothing seems to help. any ideas?

thanks!

Random Reboots

I installed now like 5 different versions of skymelon and every version had the same problem. Random Reboots.

The max time my Mobile Phone lasted was 1h .When it starts it need 3 or more tries (better said I see the Sony screen 3 or more time). I hope that this problem can be fixed because the first skymelon kernel that I had lasted 6 months (I dont know which version) it was better than the normal one.

Specs(or whatever this is called by mobile phones):

E2303

PexoROM v3

Skymelon 9.x
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
I'm sorry you're having all this problem. I'd recommend you switching to Destiny Kernel - I kinda stopped supporting this device (mine broke :( ). Sorry
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
I don't have such problem with SkyMelon 9, it do reboot from time to time, let say few reboots per month. With SkyMelon 8 there is NO self reboots. Did you clear cache and dalvic after each kernel installation? I use stock marshmallow Rom and my phone work very stable with SkyMelon.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] cirnocirno:
Does the Destiny Kernel have any undervolting scheme?

Because it just overheats my device and makes it useless.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] ivy.lally:
Again, welcome :)

Problems you describe seem have other sources, I run this kernel version SkyMelon-8.1-03072017-v9tkn for over half a year without any problems! :)

And writing now for another reason: the functionality "fast charge". I regularly charge phone with charger of 1.5A, and it quickly charges (in an hour fully charged) with a current shown real time by Ampere like: 1÷1.5A (if phone is active it takes some energy too).

PROBLEM is about battery TEMPERATURE!

It can reach as much as 40°C and you probably know the temperature itself is what spoils a battery during fast charge (not high current as most people think).

In a kernel it should be some mechanism automatically limiting charging current if temperature rises above 35°C or so (and if temperature dropped to safety then current limiting would be lifted).

Andy, do you consider introducing such temperature fast charge battery protection mechanism to your kernel? ;)

Aqua E2303, MM modded, SkyMelon
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] dani020110:
O rly?

Yes it is undervolted

Thermal needs some love, but the temperatures aren't something out of this world

Maybe the place where you live is pretty warm

Instead of saying that my kernel makes your phone useless, you could just report your issue and I would gladly look into it
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] cirnocirno:
Weird, I live in scandinavia. Phone idles at 43-45C

While watching youtube 57-60C

While watching twitch 65-69C

While using firefox and watching a webm video, phone reaches temps up to 83C!

While gaming phone reboots and gameover.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] AndyPhoenix9879:
Factory reset it maybe (backup all of your data if you are going to do it) ? I'm assuming you've cleared dalvik cache and cache.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] cirnocirno:
But I am not using destiny kernel, I went back to yours 8.1. It works the best, phone heats up but won't shut off.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Thedalamsyh:
for the heating issue you might wanna try shutting down all the big cores, and leave all 4 small cores do all the job. in my case it's more power friendly, temp barely touch 60°. on idle sitting in 42, browsing might rise to 50-55°, and for heavy processing like opening YouTube and Instagram about 55-59°. (in those cases if I use it indoor. outdoor about 62-63 tops). I use it mainly for messenger apps like WhatsApp and line, Instagram, browse xda 9gag and chrome. all those without any noticeable lags. I use interactive gov with some heavy tweaked values according to my needs.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] lolcrazy15:
Hi, could you share the tweaked values? Because I use the phone the same way you do. Thanks by the way!

Anyone having issues where when you turn on the screen after some inactivity the phone slows down noticeably, i.e., it doesn't wake the cores that are in deep sleep right away but after a few minutes?

They are, but get put into deep sleep automatically. However when I turn on the screen they stay in Deep Sleep until I manually enable them in kernel auditor or wait a few minutes after turning on the screen. Here are the pics of the relevant settings in kernel auditor.

Im currently using 8.0, I installed 9 with su2.82 but I got random reboots, then got 8.1 same story.

8 still gets me random reboots but these are less frecuent. Cant use init.d method since busybux messes up my system partition(for activation). I used non root 8.1 for a while, but heating issues where a lot. But I find ir the most stable for my device.

I have skymelon 9 and is there a way to reduce cpu frequency because i have a little heat problem with 1.61ghz(big) and 1.21ghz(little)? My temperatures reach up to 70 when just normally browsing and it starts to be little laggy then.

It would be nice if there is some way to use script with root browser because i don't want to use kernel auditor with this problem if possible.

And with second problem i have is battery consumption. It's almost 30%/h when normally browsing. I've tried cluster plug and autosmp but they are not giving any better consumptions.
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] Artsii:
Now i have problems with idle battery consumption. It's almost 4%/h because my phone won't go in deepsleep for some reason. I think reason is wakelocks but what i can do for those and how do i even reduce battery consumption.

I have also problems with lag. I don't know is that problem gpu or cpu but when it starts lag i go to cpu-z and see that that gpu max clock is came down from 700mhz to 385mhz if i remember right. Is that problem based on governors or heat problem? I don't know and it's little bit frustrating
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] valyo_bg:
On my phone this kernel work very good, it goes to deep sleep. Maybe you have some application that prevent your phone from deep sleep. Also it work smooth and fast. Did you do clear of cache and dalvik after installing of new kernel?

Hey there people. I have a problem with cpu clock speeds. When I have the CPU-Z app opened and Im looking on the current clock speeds, the 0. 1. 2. and 3. core is on idle 40 MHz and the 4. 5. 6. 7 cores are still one 800-1113MHz and dont want to go idle for somehow. And also my charging time is slower than with regular kernel. Do you think this is the problem + if yes, how to fix it? Dont have any running apps in multitasking, processes are just a few basics.

Hi there

It's good to see that you're still working on this phone

Let me tell you that we don't use dwc3

https://github.com/sonyxperiadev/kernel/commit/d113db98900f843a591193ab408b6a289be00b8b

I stopped working on the stock kernel because it's not worth it

It's the worst kernel ever seen, the worst base, hacked everywhere, and really ancient

I managed to boot a caf 1.2.9 kernel with almost all of the crap removed, camera, the external speaker and the led need some love but the rest is working fine, here is the source

https://github.com/dani020110/destiny/commits/129_upstream_los

And I've managed to boot a caf 1.3.7 kernel (thanks to bartcubbins) but I only could get to the bootanimation, the ramdisk is said to need some love to get to the system

https://github.com/bartcubbins/kernel_kanuti (you just have to disable sdcardfs)

I haven't got time to finish these but they are some alternatives to play around

SDCARD damaged

Hey guys

I have a E2333 with last stock and I'm using Naut Kernel right now because SkyMelon gives me a really bad bug.

I have a 64GB samsung SD and when i use SkyMelon it just can't mount (Damaged SD, Unsupported SD). If i try to format it with the built-in android i just keep getting the same errors and can't use the card.

I tried to format it to any File System (Ext 1,2,3, FAT, FAT32, exFAT, NTFS and F2FS) with my pc but no luck.

Someone can help me fix this, i tried Version 8 and 9 of this kernel but nothing, what am i doing wrong? I even tried with another 2 SDCARDs i had, a 2GB sd formatted in FAT32 works, another one 64GB card just don't works like the first one.

Is it a problem with the size of the card? Because on stock and other kernels the card works.

Hope you guys can help me somehow.

Hi guys, been using v9 for a little bit now, and my device gets quite warm when charging compared to stock kernel. Do you have any suggestions on how can I lower the temps a bit ? Maybe i should lower the clock speeds or something?

btw, I do use cluster-plug
[Sony Xperia M4 Aqua] zputnyq:
To reduce heat I don't use cluster plug since it seems only makes cpu to use higher/highest freq. Moreover, I tweaked thermal section & governor using KA. I limit CPU throttle temperature to 60°C & temperature limit to 50°C. For clock speed, I don't lower it. I only tweak the default governor (interactive_pro) tunables, I change its highspeed_freq to 800000. I suggest to use KA from f-droid, it works better. Here's the link

:

I've downgraded from v9 to 8.1 no root, no issue with booting up.

(stock firmware 26.3.A.1.33 on E2353)

I was thinking of moving from SuperSU to Magisk to use android pay, but I stopped halfway because I realized that my system partition was totally wrecked (heavily debloated, resized partitions) and there would be no storage space left if I restored to original, so I gave up the idea of using Magisk on my M4. Wasted my morning.

Maybe it's time to change to a new phone.

EDIT2

:

Did your phone restart while showing the blue wavy screen? if yes, there is a chance that your phone restarted because of over-heating, try to cool it down.
