Phone won't charge - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yesterday I left my phone discharge to 0% and then it turned off. There is a known bug of 0% battery but it hadn't happened to me like this before.
Firstly, when I connected it, it gave no sign of life... as always. It shows the "three leds of death" for a while then it turns on normally... but this time it didn't happened. It now just shows this light
View attachment 1996931
and it does nothing when I try to turn it on, press the home button.. anything. The only way to charge it is force-turning it on, and charge from that, which is not the idea. Any suggestions? I haven't tried anything yet :l

Thanks for your reply.
As I see that the post is a bit old and I'm using a JB Rom and JB kernel, it's still working for my phone? I say it because I won't have the risk of a brick or damaged ROM or something
---------
Oh and my phone's an Arc S (LT18i) not Arc (15), no risk?

Sorry I can't help further

So.. anyone else? I'm still with this

Let it charge for a while and see if you can turn it on after that.

The patch for arc/S only for stock 2.3.3
The oringinal patch file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1312398 "bq27520-kernel-driver.7z/c"
Compile your own version
This are simplified steps. If you dont know how to do, search in the forum.
- First, download the stock kernel source for Xperia (watch out for the correct version), or the sources for your custom ROM you want to use if its not compatible with stock kernel. The developer thread of dev Kalled from Sony (search on developer thread) has some instructions on how to compile the kernel.
This is the direct link to download Sony stock kernel sources:
http://developer.sonymobile.com/downloads/opensource/
- For the ARM compiler, download the CodeSourcery arm eabi compiler version 2010q1.
https://sourcery.mentor.com/sgpp/lit...al/release1294
- Install the compiler on Linux (You can use a virtual machine if you have Windows - use Virtual Box or VMWave Player, both are free for home use).
- Overwrite the bq27520 driver source code with the patched driver from this thread.
- Next, follow the guide on Kalled thread to select phone version and compile the Kernel.
- In the end of compilation, you get a zImage file, that is YOUR Kernel. Congratulations.
- You need a ramdisk. If you are targeting a custom ROM, get a ramdisk compatible with your custom ROM. Also, you can go to DoomLord thread about ramdisk and get a ramdisk suitable for your building. Or generate/use your own ramdisk if you know how. If you use other's ramdisk, give theirs credit.
- With kernel image and ramdisk, generate the file boot.img using mkbootimg tool from Android SDK, or abootimg tool from kubuntu repositories.
- If you choose to use mkbootimg, download a compiled version of mkbootimg, or compile your own version from Android SDK.
- Now you have a boot.img file. Flash it on your phone using fastboot and you are done.

It may be a problem to your battery.
Or you can try to flash "Fix FOTA bricked" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1126358

Okay I will try those. No.. actually, the off charging works just well with the stock ROM and my battery has a good life at all so it's not a battery issue, thanks

[Kernel][CDMA/VZW][EI04/2.3.5]Pre-Rooted Stock with Voodoo

Installing this kernel on a stock EI04 Tab with Heimdall will convert you to EXT4 for Voodoo.
This is a prerooted kernel. If you can use adb and know how, you can root your tab with this. I will not go into how.
Special thanks to Adrynalyne for helping me with toolchains, supercurio for Voodoo, and imoseyon for doing the leaked one so I could cheat!

If you're on stock it should download itself.

Will this work with Stock EF01?
For Heimdall, do I just put this in the kernel and recovery slots and leave everything else empty? That sounds right, but I want to check since, if I am wrong, then the other partitions will be emptied.
I have no idea what this will do loaded on other versions.
This is not a recovery, just a kernel.
D
I see, didnt even know VZW release EF04...thought EF01 was the latest and still only a leak.
Hi,
I am not able to download the kernel in the first post. I just get a link to download a shady looking installer called "zoom downloader" ?
Could you repost the link?
Thanks

[Q] adding governors

how do i add additional cpu governors on a custom boot.img?
I think u need an app like no frills CPU or set CPU to control your CPU and apply govners
just re read your post and I wouldn't no where to start by adding them to a boot.img. do u mean built into the rom ?

i mean adding more governors to the boot.img... i think it has something to do with the kernel??? cm7 only has 4 governors by default... not sure if its the rom that needs editing or the boot.img?

Yes - governors are hardcoded in the kernel as far as I know - so you have to recomile a kernel from source - including your changes - and then flash it. It's not just a simple editing of txt files...
More info about other governors you will find at cyanogen forum - as they developed them (e.g. smartass v1/2).

First step
1) Make sure you are running linux, or else it won't work
2) Download the source code from either opensource.sonymobile.com (for a stock kernel) or FXP github (https://github.com/freexperia/semc-kernel-msm7x30) for FXP Kernel.
3) unpack the source code
4) make changes to the source code you want to (i.e. adding in governors or io schedulers)
5) Follow this guide on how to build the source (note: the defconfig is probably different you'll have to check the /arch/arm/config folder to figure out which ones is the FXP one...)
6) Make it into a boot img following this tutorial
7) Try booting, if it works, check to make sure that the changes you made sticked. If it doesn't boot, well, you can ask questions in this thread and i'll help you
Any questions?
Pax
will try this.. tnx
EDIT:
-is it not possible to use with windows???
-so i have to build a kernel from scratch?? i can't simply add the new governors to an existing kernel?

A) Nope linux is the only way. I suggest ubuntu 10.04 LTE
B) unless you can create a way to decompile and recompile the zImage file (using linux) you're not going to get anywhere fast. (Governors are part of the built kernel, and can't be added into after the fact)
cant i simply copy the kernel from another boot.img file?? are there any other kernels that are compatible with cm7 fxp111 that has more governors??
is it possible to use kernels from other xperia phones using cm7??

1) technically yes, but kinda pointless because: 2) other than dooms (old) cm kernel (GSM) nope (I'm not sure if he had more governors or if it's compatible with with newer fxp)
3) nope, they use a different board.

[KERNEL][ICS][P1/L/N] Kanged Gummy Kernel 1.0 Released

Information​This kernel is forked from the CyanogenMod Kernel and i have added a few additional changes of my own and more to come. My builds of AOKP and Gummy have this kernel pre-installed with the Kanged Gummy Kernel but when i release 1.0 it will have a few more tweaks so you would need to upgrade.
There will be 4 files you can download. The boot.img and zImage can both be flashed using Heimdall. The Flashable zip and Odin tar.
Bugs​
Deep Sleep works but when using LiveOC it does not so i recommend only using this when playing games or maybe make a script to disable this when you device locks in the time being.
Differences​
LiveOC
More Frequencies (100MHz, 200MHz, 400MHz, 600MHz, 700MHz, 800MHz, 900MHz, 1000MHz, 1100MHz, 1200MHz, 1300MHz, 1400MHz)
Lulzactive v2 Governor (My preferred choice)
Tiny shmem
Working on more!
Using Features In The Kernel​LiveOC​Here is information on it This is configurable using a tool known as NSTools on the PlayStore. When using this 100% means the bus frequency is at 100% try not to get confused. So 100% of 100MHz would be 100MHz so if you increase it to 120% so it would be 120% of 100MHz would be 120MHz and this value applies to all CPU frequencies, GPU ect.
Lulactive​This is like other governors for the CPU and can be configured using applications like Voltage Control, SetCPU, NSToolsand built-in tools from CM9/10 and AOKP ect.
Downloads​
All Devices - http://goo.im/devs/henryedwardrose/Kernel/ICS
P1 - zImage - Boot.img - Flashable.zip - Odin.tar
P1L - zImage - Boot.img - Flashable.zip - Odin.tar
P1N - zImage - Boot.img - Flashable.zip - Odin.tar
Installation​
zImage or boot.img​
Use command line tool known as 'heimdall' (for people comfortable with the command-line)
Flashable.zip​
Installed using CWM (the easiest methord)
Odin.tar​
Put this file in the PDA section on Odin (Windows only)
Special Thanks​The TE4M - Nice work on developing the kernel and getting our device officially supported by CyanogenMod!
Dizgustipated - Nice Guy, Excellent Roms and Kernel!
Technomancer - The Guy who originally ported CM7 to our tab
Sources​My Github
Building​You can build this kernel yourself in two ways
The First Methord​Is by adding it into your manifest in your android build environment which supports integrated kernel building like CM9/10 and AOKP.
If you want it in your own Rom then simply just perform the regular build commands
If you just want to build a boot.img then apply the following commands
source build/envsetup.sh
lunch cm_p1-userdebug (change this depending on what device you would like to build)
make out/target/product/p1/boot.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The Second Methord​Before the integrated kernel building system you used to build a kernel outside of this in it own separate environment so i have made it possible without have to download the android build environment to build any kernel for this device and you just have to run a build script and tell it what device you want to make.
Firstly you want to use the following commands
mkdir Kernel
cd Kernel
repo init -u https://github.com/henryedwardrose/Kernel_Manifest.git -b master
repo sync
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Ok when synced you will see that there are three directories. Two of which are what you need. The 'Files' directory
is where all of the other files go that are necessary to build the kernel. The build.sh is a nice bash script which
you can open and easily understand what commands are being executed and how the files are being used.
Anyways here's how you build:
Firstly in the terminal go to the Files directory
cd Files
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now run this following command to extract the ramdisks (you only have to do this when i have uploaded a new ramdisk)
./RUNAFTERSYNC.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then you want to build the kernel and at the end you will end up with the following flashable files 'zImage,
boot.img, .tar, .zip'
Now you need to initiate the building process
./build.sh
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now follow the commands on screen and you will end up with the kernel located in the out directory and you can flash
via Heimdall (zImage and Boot.img), Odin (.tar) and CWM (.zip)
Enjoy!
Thanks for you work...
Please build for all model (P1,P1l,P1N, P1C)..

i tried kernel but it doesnt going into DEEP SLEEPtab working always 1200.
my options is smartassv2 and sio.
Used this kernel can be used camera 360 ?
It feels smooth indeed. Quadrant score at 1300 MHz with Cm9 is around 2600-2700.

Hi henry.
My tab is p1000 and im on your aokp milestone 6 (not the rebuild 1). I decided to update my kanged gummy kernel to 1.0 as suggested in the op. I tried the zip for p1 using cwm recovery, and my tab was stucked to the samsung logo. Cant go to recovery too. So i decided to use the .tar in odin, and its now perfectly.
Just a heads up that there maybe something wrong with the zip version. But neverrtheless, thanks for this wonderful kernel!
I have a p1 too and i have download cwm file i have instal it with no issue.
Maybe a wrong download ?
@Henry,
with rebuild 1 kernel is the latest kernel or i have to redownload and install ?
Thank's
Hope someone can upload it to other sites. Rapishare really sucks.

[XS][Kernel][STOCK+] V5.4.1OC [14-03-13] Recovery Independent!!

For those who have an UNLOCKED boot loader.
Kernel Stock+ is
= Sony latest ICS .55 kernel base
+ Auto-root with SuperSU
+ Init.d
+ Governor : Badass, Intellidemand, Interactive, Lagfree, Hotplug, Wheatley
+ I/O schedule : SIO, ROW, ZEN
+ elf extract (support recovery in FOTA partiton)
+ few tweak
+ OC to 1674Mhz(some version)
Stock+ V5.4.1 (OC)
- Over clock again to 1674MHz
- Port few lib, optimize from Open SEMC kernel
- Omit smartassv2 it cause my phone stuck at max frequently.
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?hsma936uzlasgao
Stock+ V5.3 (Not OC)
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?ohybzjcfu1ad6hc
- Update recovery TWRP 2.4.1
- Support elf extract so you are no longer tie to TWRP 2.4.1. Now you can update TWRP to the latest version or even install CWM. Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173202
- Fix Auto Root
- Remove PeqasusQ
- Add Lagfree, Hotplug, Wheatley
Stock+ V5.2 (Enable to Over Clock to match XSL speed)
http://www.mediafire.com/?4n0n5b04g76h8ew
- Change max frequency to 1674MHz
- Change RAM Disk to limit max frequency at 1512MHz
Stock+ V5.1 (update TWRP to V2.3.3.0)
http://www.mediafire.com/?ehkzz5lb59zgbxd
- New ramdisk structure. Now ramdisk split into two 1st for recovery and 2nd for Stock ICS boot.
- 1st ramdisk is ported from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2075562.
- 2nd ramdisk is exacted from sony stock kernel.sin merge with ramdisk from Advance Stock Kernel this should retain "autoroot" function and "init.d" support
Stock+ V2
link : http://www.mediafire.com/?vzpj4b6kpoa5zsl
This kernel feature
- build from .55 source + fix cache formatting issue
- little mod ram disk to set minimum frequency at 192000
- on demand tweak for better battery life.
- autoroot with superSU
- Xperia boot screen
Stock+ V1
Link : http://www.mediafire.com/?5sb5352k7pz5lc5
It is unmodified STOCK kernel extract from .55 kernel.sin plus CWM with auto root functionality.
I made a little mod to ramdisk to make it auto root with SuperSU instead of Superuser. The wifi module also replace with the one from stock firmware as well. The wifi module in Advance stock Kernel is not compatible with this kernel.
The kernel work just fine but I notice some bug when I try to format cache or wipe cache it will cause your cache partition corrupt. So if you like to use unmodified stock kernel please remember NOT wipe or format cache.
Well if you already wipe/format and want to get around the problem just simply install other kernel e.g. advance stock ICS17 or my stock mod kernel list above then format cache after that reinstall unmodified stock or you can leave it as it is.
Note.
- 28/01/13 : just found a bug regarding to setcpu and antutu set at boot not appear to set both core correctly. Please give No-frills CPU control or Kernel tuner a try but remember not to use with pagasusq.
- To install by fastboot just extract kernel.elf from the zip.
- Source is outdate because I can not upload a big file. I will update source as soon as I get proper internet connection.
- Now you can update TWRP to the latest version using goo.manager or even install CWM. Check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2173202
Feedback is appreciate.

I think this is different mate. The one you provide is not the real recovery. This is the same way people use for Locked boot loader. The recovery is locate in "system". If you format system you will loose it or if you install new ROM which has script to format system you probably loose recovery!!
Mine the recovery is not in system partition. It is loaded in ramdisk. You won't loose it even you format system.
Cheers.

I did it but for now it is in elf format. Please check first post.
You probably not need it because if you already rooted with ICS16 which come with superuser then the kernel will not reroot your system.
I'm still learning, could you please explain or give me some info about how you find user friendly of superuser? I read around here and lot of people said supeSU is quicker.
Cheers,

I am not a Dev but since my 1st Xperia NEO I have always used Superuser. I only once used SuperSu and its was last night When I was looking for a way to Root .55 of my Xperia S.
The used Interface it kinda messy and had a lot of option but in Superuser it just a few thing and easy to understand.
I don't know about others but As far as I know and Experienced most of the xperia user and even my friend use Superuser instead of supersu.

I am not a Dev but since my 1st Xperia NEO I have always used Superuser. I only once used SuperSu and its was last night When I was looking for a way to Root .55 of my Xperia S.
The used Interface it kinda messy and had a lot of option but in Superuser it just a few thing and easy to understand.
I don't know about others but As far as I know and Experienced most of the xperia user and even my friend use Superuser instead of supersu.

Supersu owns super user. Chainfire is the man

Someone needs to make a kernel with twrp. Anyone have a good kernel tutorial. I'll look into it.

You may start from the link in my first post. It is for Acro S but it should give you an idea. There is an instruction in page 5.
I use kernel kitchen to unpack and repack kernel.

It suppose to work on windows but you will need cgywin. You also need some other software like phyton 7zip java etc. If you have Linux then it will be easy to install all those software.
Great work.
I have a unlock bootloader and Whit this kernel there is an increase of performance.
Now i have the stock. 55 and Whit the antutu and i have 8390
Whit cm10 i have 8900. I think this is a Great kernel.
Hi, I've just added this kernel to the Xperia S Development Index

Similar problem before.

The kernel was tested. So...no, I don't think that's from the kernel. Make sure you downloaded it entirely. And...I don't know, make sure you don't have any funny stuff like custom recovery or something like that installed on your phone. Other than that...it should work.

yeah, my bad. i don't know, this is my recovery or something else that weird. i try flash stock kernel by arsradu I got installation abort. i flash it when i using cwm 6.0.4.4 it's ok, no problem. I think this is not the file that corrupt. I'm using cwm 6.0.4.5 that hadi posted in his cm11 section, and install it by ATE.

He uses the hadidjapri 6.0.4.5 with cwm.

I don't know what the problem is.
6.0.4.4 try to install with.
sigprof said:
Android developers changed the format of the shared memory area used to store system properties in the kitkat branch, then made some further changes (1, 2, 3, 4). Then they added backward compatibility with the older format, but only in one direction — now an executable linked with the new bionic libc can work even if the init process is from an older version (the commit log mentions the case when an older recovery is used to install an update.zip for a new version), but an executable linked with the old bionic libc will not work with a new init process. The latter case is what happens when you try to install a baseband zip file using the recovery built for kitkat — every update.zip file contains its own update-binary inside, and in this case update-binary is statically linked with the old (pre-kitkat) bionic libc. Because of this incompatibility getprop() calls in the updater-script do not return the expected values, and the compatibility check fails.
I could try to update at least my baseband zip files with a new update-binary, but this will take some time to check whether this could really work with different recovery versions, and then to upload all those files and update links to them.
BTW, the CWM recovery 6.0.4.5 image from this thread seems to be built in the 4.3.1 (JB) environment, therefore baseband update zips should be installable with this recovery version (however, I'm not sure about compatibility with kitkat ROMs).

maybe this is the answer to our problem.
Someone could try arco cwm 6.0.4.5, it is built in 4.3.1 enviroment the others should be 4.4.1 enviroment
i have a bug to report with this kernel: it's almost 1hour and a half that i'm surfing the web, using facebook app and playing, and my phone battery's percentage stuck at 23%!! (the percentage that was when i rebooted the device after flashing this rom)

Thanks for the report. I think I used the wrong zImage while compiling. I will fix it when I get home.

Here is anykernel version attached. You can flash it.

And remember that you can successfully flash "anykernel" version if you're running the stock kernel by Radu. Other than that you can face some system apps FC.
One can easily flash "anykernel" version over the stock kernel only once. The reason is the ramdisk.

Yes you are right. I will make a boot.img version when I get home from work.

What's this "anykernel"? A simple stock kernel, or a modified one by you without that bug?

Anykernel only flashes the kernel zImage and modules not the ramdisk. So this is a modified one and there is no battery stuck problem.

so this is your kernel but without the ramdisk. And what this will mean? If this is a modified one without battery stuck problem, why don't you post directly this in your first post? Just for knowledge

What's the difference between the first kernel you posted and this? what the ramdisk less mean? i repeat, not for criticize you, just for my knowledge

ramdisk is a small partition image that is mounted by the kernel at boot time. It only contains init and a few config files. It is used to start init which will mount the rest of the system images properly and run the init procedure.
Just googled it as I dont know the exact definition...
