[KERNEL][ZL/ZQ] 78Kernel 4.3&4.4 29-aug-2014 - Sony Xperia ZL

Code:
I am NOT responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war
or the current economic crisis caused by you following these directions.
YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me
for messing up your device
I will laugh at you.

Use:
For stock or custom rom based in stock 4.3 FW 10.4.B.0.569 or 10.4.1.B.0.101 and 4.4 FW 10.5.A.0.230 or 10.5.A.0.233
NOTE:
For users of the new firmware, there were changes in the kernel of 10.4.B.0.569 for 10.4.1.B.0.101! Screen rotation does not work!
Installation:
Flash via recovery
or
extract boot.img and flash via fastboot
Important note:
The version 5 and more newer
was replaced mpdecision by AutoSMP, I added a script to zip by removing dependencies mpdecision, then it is highly recommended to install via recovery, otherwise you will get two hotplug controllers, which will cause problems!
Please, do not mirror!

If you come from another custom kernel such as DoomKernel is required to install the proper drivers WIFI
If you come from the stock kernel is not necessary flash
Flash this - Thanks for @TAL333 for tests
Bugs:
Indicate possible problems
Tips:
For Overclock:
For people who use overclock, and the necessary modification of a rom file "sysmon.cfg"
This kernel has overclock up to 1.7GHz
then you should use this:
Flash via recovery sysmon.cfg Overclock 1728000
Note: If you use overclocked other frequency is necessary to modify sysmon.cfg for equivalent frequency
and obviously, if you do not overclock is not necessary to modify sysmon.cfg
Because modify sysmon.cfg?
Because without it the max frequencies not stick in all cores
For people who do want DoubleTap2Wake:
Use this app created by @Soheil_rf, thanks for this :good:
or
Flash this:
Enable DoubleTap2Wake
aaah, but I want to not use it, and now?
Go in /system/etc/init.d and remove 78DoubleTap2Wake
and restart

Thank you all for the comment :good:
I will investigate if it is possible to dualboot, anything I'll post here
since our apparatus is capable of installing a kernel by itself (via recovery) which is very fast and easy, it would not be very important
The idea is to have a lightweight and stable kernel
That's it friend this is for stock or custom rom based in stock 4.3
Then go deep!

Feature requests?
Hey D78,
this Kernel runs my phone quite a while now and while I am missing some features from doomkernel I am pretty happy about it as it is just everything working.
Do you take feature requests? It would be great to have doubletaptowake on this kernel
would you do that?
Greetings

And underclocking? If you would extend the frequency table to 192 MHz it would cause a noticeably better battery performance.
I myself would wish a intelli_plug, eco-mode and intelli_demand governor as well, but that's a lot to do and I'm premierement thankful to have a working kernel with recovery

I tried to add intelli-plug, but got compilation errors, need to dig to find the cause of the problem
However I have extended the table add 192000 MHz freq One thing I noticed is that only CPU0 (first core) running this frequency, perhaps this could be normal, but I think all colors have to get this freq
you know please tell me something more about it?

I don't know but I think that mpdecision switches unneeded cores off, so at the minimum minimum (the really lowest) frequency, which is in your table then 198000 Hz, there would in every case be only one active core. Is that plausible?
It would be interesting if that occurs a well if you add overclock frequencies.

since we have hotplug enabled by default...
I do not think, just believe it would become more fluid in the lower freq 192000 in all colors after a high freq

Caution!
NOTE:
For users of the new firmware, there were changes in the kernel of 10.4.B.0.569 for 10.4.1.B.0.101! Screen rotation does not work, we are waiting for the release of source code for new construction
Edit:
I found a way around this, for those who desire advanced kernel for new firmware

[KERNEL][8th-Dec] YA-OK! Yet-another Optimised Kernel (v1.50 Update)

Yes, this is yet another (shameless) attempt to optimise the kernel for our Galaxy-S (i9000) by taking tweaks implemented by various xda developers. The aim at this moment is to 'integrate' all the desirable tweaks, since I'm still grasping the ins and outs of Linux kernel to experiment some of the possible tweaks myself.
Not sure how far I would bring this thread forward, because I will be working on a project (my day job) very soon again, so I'm going to enjoy/do while I can.
Key Implementation
based on JPM kernel
sztupy's Universal Lag Fix (v0.3)
hardcore's Free Memory config (341MB)
raspdeep's Overclock (v1.1)
hardcore's SpeedMod (Tweaks + Compiler Optimisation) with Jhash update
supercurio Voodoo Display tweak (Gamma Correction and Improve Sharpness)
neldar's Backlight Notification (BLN, v2.2, enabled via ULF in recovery mode)
Budget Fair Queuing (BFQ) I/O Scheduler
I also made some minor modification to other codes to experiment the overclock enhancement. It's in this build but may not have any effect.
Please refer to this link for the latest download
See this video of my Galaxy S running on Ya-OK kernel. Video playback, internet browsing, gaming, UI navigation.
attached is the screenshot of quadrant, on a JPM-based ROM with EXT4 on all partition.

DOWNLOAD HISTORY
v1.50 (build 38) - 8th December
Updated Overclock to 1.12GHz
Updated Kernel Scheduler parameter (sched_min_granularity_ns & sched_wakeup_granularity_ns) to give more priority to foreground application, therefore improving the fluidity of the UI experience. From brief research, these are the key parameters used to tune kernel between a server (therefore higher values) and a desktop.
CWM version available here
v1.45 (build 35) - 5th December
Fixed stability issue in v1.40 by reverting to the voltage profile used in v1.2b.
v1.40 (build 34) - 28th November
Added BFQ (Budget Fair Queuing) I/O Scheduler and set BFQ as the default I/O Scheduler. The aim is to boost I/O throughput, reduce the latency. Please refer to this site for more information
v1.31 (build 31) - 24th November
Bug fix on /system mount to prevent filesystem corruption in /system
Does not include fix, please refer to supercurio's thread on how to correct the corrupted filesystem if you are encountering problem with your device.
v1.3 (build 30) - 20th November
Refined voltage level for cpu frequency 100/200 MHz. Effectively, reduce 75mV for 100/200, and 25mV for 400/800 (same as 1.2b). Again not user configurable for now, though I may implement it if people are finding the UV feature is causing unstability.
Upgraded Backlight Notification (BLN) to v2.2 (Please test and feedback)
Minor optimisation on kernel configuration (PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, UACCESS_WITH_MEMCPY)
v1.2b - 2nd November (2585 downloads)
Refined voltage level for cpu frequency 100/200 MHz. Effectively, reduce 50mV for 100/200, and 25mV for 400/800. Again not user configurable for now, and once raspdeep released his UV code I may implement it if people are finding the UV feature is causing unstability.
v1.2a - 31st October (668 downloads)
Implemented lower voltage for cpu frequency 100/200/400/800MHz.
Note: Not user configurable
v1.1 - 30th October (1168 downloads)
Implemented Voodoo Display Sharpness & Color Gamma
v1.0 - 29th October (759 downloads)
Implemented Universal Lagfix, Overclock, Memory optimization, etc
Additional minior OC tweaks.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does it have a recovery of some sort built in then. Maybe CWR..
Universal Lagfix Kernel (ULK) comes with Clockworkmod so yes it has the recovery function!
Does this works on my XXX ROM?
This kernel is compiled based on the available Froyo JPM source, so it'll definitely work on JPM-based ROM (custom or stock). For the rest of Froyo ROM, it has been reported that YA-OK is compatible with the following Froyo-based firmwares; JP6, JPO, JPP, JPD, JPA (all the above are based off Android 2.2 kernel) JPU ROM is however not supported at this moment. (See next FAQ point for more information)
Does this work on JPU-based ROM? When will you support it and/or Why does XXX kernel support JPU and not yours?
JPU-based ROM is apparently based on Android 2.2.1 firmware. Since the YA-OK kernel is based on version 2.2.0 kernel, there is a high chance YA-OK will not work well with JPU-based ROM. I have not tried personally myself but from what has been reported by other users, this does not work. Only when Samsung release the source code for JPU will YA-OK be able to support JPU (and later) ROM. As to why other kernel developers has already started releasing kernel to supporting JPU-based ROM, they are merely injecting lagfix and tweaks into the kernel through initramfs, instead of the tweaks that require source code modification (e.g. Overclocking, Undervolt, Display Fix, Kernel optimization through compiler optimization).
Please refer to supercurio post for more information
I installed this kernel on a JPO-based ROM. But it seems that there are no changes, reported RAM is 341 mb but Quadrant is about 1000.
You need to enable lagfix yourself by going to recovery mode, and select ULK option for all the possible choices of lagfix.
If I install this kernel on my rom, is it still necessary for me to install "voodoo"?
All the tweak and optimisation features mentioned in this thread are implemented within the kernel, so flashing or updating another kernel will lose whatever features found in YAOK kernel unless the said feature is also implemented in the other kernel. In the case of lagfix, it is important that if you flash another kernel over YAOK (for whatever reason), you need to be sure that kernel supports the relevant lagfix feature otherwise your phone may not boot.
I face alot of FC (Force close) with your kernel, what's wrong?
One of the common cause for the "FC" problem, particularly with custom kernel, is that you has chosen to enable the BIND option in the Lagfix setting. You should turn that off, and observe further if the FC issue stil persists.
How do I install this kernel?
First of all, make sure you have a compatible Froyo firmware (refer to above for a list of compatible firmware)
To install this kernel, download and unzip the zip file. Flash the .tar file using Odin, without selecting re-partition and you can omit the PIT setting.
After updating v1.31 (build 31), my Galaxy gets stuck at the bootscreen. What happens?
This is a sign of corrupted file system on the /system partition. Try this one time fix procedure
flash back v1.30 build 30
boot to recovery, do a backup
flash v1.31 build 31
boot to recovery, do a advance restore on /system
still at recovery, go to CWM and wipe davik cache
reboot your device (you may have to wait a few minutes for the system to rebuild the davik cache)
I was playing/running XXX game/application, the screen freezes halfway, what gives?
From experience, some applications (game or graphic intensive application such as video playback application) may not handle overclock feature very well, especially if the application rely solely on CPU (the main processor for computing process needs other than graphics), instead of GPU (the processor dedicated for graphic processing needs), to render graphics. In particular, Rock player seems to have problem handling video playback via software mode (instead of hardware), for HD video. This is understandable given that constant overclocking is usually undesirable. Remember our device can do dynamic CPU frequency scaling, which means it will never always run at overclocked frequency unless you manually set it to be.
Some games such as Asphalt were reported to freeze the device but from my observation, it is very rare it happens and I would usually would not bother about that. If it really bothers you, just set the CPU scaling threshold to 1GHz (instead of 1.12GHz or 1.2Ghz) via SetCPU app. Personally I won't bother and I think you should do the same. Afterall, it is probably a bad app out of many apps installed that is causing the problem, so why cripped your phone permanently for that?
Great to see these projects coming from fellow Singaporeans
No UV support?
lol @ the name - there seem to be more kernels than ROM. Thanks to all those devs too and good luck with yours - seems to be the kitchen sink here

Does this use latest hardcore´s changes?
Otherwise - great stuff, all-in-one, thank you!
BTW quadrant benchmark is only a number, but with jfs overkill is my score about 2200...
Which version of hardcore's kernel mod does it include? Is it possible that You add 1000hz version? By the way great work!

Quadrant is still useful when you look at the score for each component. It is meaningless when you look at overall score of a lag fix device esply with oclf.

Could you also add to description if it supports JFS? Many people are using it as a lagfix.
Hello
Do I need to disable Lagfix before install this Kernel ? Can i Install it within CMW ?
thx
is it real voodoo.. or do you mean the voodoo option inside the lagfix? becasue that just "voodoo style" lagfix
So I tried this kernel. Asphalt5 - played one level OK, Dungeon Hunter - after 1min or so, hangs

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to my latest kernel ELiTE edition!
Get ready for the most battery life, the best performance and the most fps in-game!​
The goal of this kernel is to be atleast as stable as Sony's stock kernel, while delivering a better performance and battery life.
This is mainly accomplished due to Swap, CleanCache, ZCache, ZRam, which help to reduce the I/O load and give you more free memory for multitasking. The battery consumption should not be worse compared to Sony's stock kernel, while I am achieving more performance due to making full usage of the Qualcomm Resource Power Manager (RPM).
To save additional battery, I recommend switching to either the 'intellidemand' or 'badass' governor for the best battery life.
To get the most performance out of this, I'd recommend to switch to the 'lagfree' governor.

INFO
If requested, a CyanogenMod version will be done.
I am working on including the TWRP recovery (Team Win Recovery Project).
I seriously don't feel a need to overclock the GPU (Adreno 220), but if requested, I will look into it.
If the hardware doesn't make it impossible, there's hardly anything I can't do. Just be brave and give me constructive feedback!

Yeeeeees!!! a new kernel finally for ICS!!!! will try It of course.
Thank youuu
woot !!
new kernel !!
testing it now !!
thanks.
will give this a try..and give feedback.... nice....
and yes..a cm10 kernel would be great...
Regards
Great news, a new kernel, thanks! I've already flashed it on XTXperience v7 and booted with no problems - cleaned cache & dalvik cache before flash. So far seems snappier, governor is intellidemand and antutu score is 8740. Will post feedback when I use it for a couple of days. I was on Stock+ kernel.

Just to make it clear,
is this just for the unlocked bootloader or is it also possible to flash while on locked bootloader?
thanks!

WiFi not turning on. I am using XTX7 UB.
Besides that, kernel works great. I don't have any other issues so far.

Use app like setcpu. It allows you to change governor and scheduler.
AnTuTu CPU Master free also allows you to change governor. It says "Scaling" instead of governor and scheduler comes under Advanced settings tab.
Hope that helps.
For those who have wifi problem, try flashing stock wifi module.

And yes a cm10 version will also be great with TWRP recovery in both kernels...

I set the maximum cpu speed and lagfree governer. And What about " SCHEDULERS". ? What is the use of that ? Which one should i set ? I am using Setcpu... Pls reply.. Thanks in advance
Wow great kernel I will feedback soon, YES a CM9.1 kernel Please????

Ya k, I forgot to include the stock wifi module it seems.
By default, my kernel loads the module in /system/lib/modules/bcm4330.ko, which can lead to problems if you don't have the stock wifi modules.
TWRP seems to still be causing some issues... will look into it for sure. I am currently working on Android 4.2, got it booting up already, but there are some libs that need to be fixed.
If anybody's interested, I upgraded to a working CWM 6.2 Recovery and the CM10 kernel is on its way.

You might want to use Antutu CPU Master from the Play Store and go to the 'advanced' tab. There you can change your I/O scheduler, which can finally result in much better I/O performance, rad-and-write improvements which can have a massive effect on games, file copying, reading or whatever. Just try and you'll find out soon what suits you best
Might be a stupid question, but would this kernel work in JB MIUI? (ie. the newest MIUI posted here on the Xperia S forum.)
I'm assuming it doesnt since this is for ICS, but thought I'd ask before I'd try it out while I'm at work. Especially since it just said MIUI.
thanks regardless of the answer

another new kernel joins the development for our beloved Xperia M (YEY)
so i havent really done anymore serious kernel developments in a long time, last was galaxy y where i had help with a lot of great devs, tried with mediatek chips but gave up, now i got an xperia M for the new year and i compiled my own kernel to satisfy what i want from my phone and then i just decided to share it in case you guys might wanna give it a try too
WHATS IN IT
Code:
compiled from 15.1.C.2.9 kernel sources
patched to [COLOR="Blue"]3.4.4[/COLOR] kernel
[STRIKE]linaro GCC 4.6.2 toolchain[/STRIKE][COLOR="Blue"]Now compiled with Linaro 4.7.4 toolchain[/COLOR]
compiled with O2 optimizations
CPU OC to 1.2ghz (has a weird issue though of capping max freq back to 972mhz sometimes especially when running a benchmark, still looking to solve it)
GPU OC to 450mhz (badass constant 25fps on antutu 3d gpu benchmark was the highest i ever achieved)
6 cpu givernors
[LIST=1]
[*]interactive
[*]conservative
[*]userspace
[*]powersave
[*]intellidemand*default*
[*]performance
[/LIST]
5 ioscheds
[LIST=1]
[*]noop
[*]deadline
[*]row *default*
[*]cfq
[*]sio
[/LIST]
swap & zram enabled
XZ compressed
CWM 6.0.4.5
vmreadahead set to 1024
NTFS support, now you can mount even your NTFS formatted flashdrives (needs OTG helper to mount or some app but no need for modules since its now built into the kernel)
allow externally powered USB host devices
minimum brightness lowered
more will be added soon, just check the commits to see, it will tell you what more features i have added or removed
HOW TO INSTALL
BOOTLOADER MUST BE UNLOCKED
ADB & FASTBOOT ALONG WITH XPERIA M DRIVERS MUST BE INSTALLED IN YOUR
run this command from cmd
Code:
fastboot flash boot ironbuang.img
now this
Code:
fastboot reboot
wait for phone to boot and enjoy

OTHER ISSUES MIGHT EXIST, I JUST DONT KNOW AS I REVERTED BACK TO 3.4.4,
FEEL FREE TO GIVE IT A TRY THOUGH
BUGS
Code:
[STRIKE]ROW IOSCHED is still buggy right now, causes an unresponsive system for a duration of time or SOD's the phone when it is sleeping, better now in 2.5 than before but still buggy[/STRIKE] [COLOR="Red"]FIXED[/COLOR]
Code:
PEGASUSQ GOVERNOR, was built with a section mismatch, using it as default governor via kernel config will freeze and reboot system on boot, using other governors as default and setting pegasusq using 3rd party apps works fine though as a workaround for now

zram
USE ANY TERMINAL EMULATOR OF YOUR CHOICE
1)need to be root 1st so use this command
Code:
su
2) create zram size
initialize /dev/zram0 with 96mb disksize with this command
Code:
echo 10066329 > /sys/block/zram0/disksize
note: Disksize cannot be changed if the disk contains any
data. deactivate first before you can change its disksize.
use this formula for calculating the disksize you want
( ill use my 96mb as an example)
Code:
96mb= 96×1024×1024)
3) activate:
Code:
mkswap /dev/block/zram0
swapon /dev/block/zram0
4) stats: To check if you have swap enabled
Code:
free
and it should return something like this

This is the most badass kernel I've ever used!
Good work dude.
Great to see you here.
Well, as you said about the max freq to get limited up to 972mhz, that happened to me even when I was using elixer 2.0 kernel. However on the first try with max freq 1566Mhz, I got 12000+ points but later, the problem started.......I was wondering if it was due to the app itself (antutu benchmark) because while using quadrant, it gave me a score of 5700+ points, and the max freq was 1566mhz......well, what do you think @thirdzcee?

Damn! 15k+?! That's awesome! But idk, I'm using the latest firmware and I've got antutu benchmark 3.0.3, where I got 12k with 1.5ghz and 10k for 972mhz. On the other hand, I got 13k on antutu 4.x with 1.5ghz. Well, I also experience some lags while swiping the screen and also while in gaming (with oc). Do you know what's causing it to slow down?

solved the prima puzzle,,, ss sources dont include it, so i jumped to the ds sources which had the prima source available already and thanks to showp1987 who has the fixes for the prima errors, i can compile the module, the previous errors from manually adding prima to staging was too much for me to handle.. LOL
now i have another problem,,,, why is the module so HUUUGGEE... 36mb,,, that just isnt right...

Open ZIP with winrar/winzip or on device and check if there's boot.img
If you see that file, than that's kernel and you just have to flash zip in recovery...
You can also extract boot.img and flash it with fastboot
fastboot flash boot boot.img
Restart device to newly flashed recovery and then flash ROM to be 100% certain it will flash kernel properly...

Can't install Launcher Fix, also I cant provide you log files cause of missing launcher, could you upload a .ZIP with working launcher GE maybe?
So does that mean that everything is fully functional? Like the camera for example, is it the same as on the official KK or with limited functionality?
Are there any CM bugs or is it that now that the official KK came out, the necessary files were taken all the bugs are fixed?
Thank you for your responce... Im just curious cuz i wanna leave 4.3 behind and i wanna make the best ROM choice ;D
The fix launcher.zip does not work. Please upload another one thanks!
Update: Used omniswitch to get to the playstore and installed another launcher for now.
Can't change volume while playing music.
My feedback:
VolUp behaviour: previous track
VolDown behaviour: previous track
Viper4Android FX doesn't work for me, even if Force Enable V4A is ticked.
PimpMyZ1 (yes, I know) sets Headphone Analog Gain +10 by default - in fact its +0, and the slider is bugged.
Too much Xposed modules with overriding functions, AROMA would be cool
HUGE Sync problem - I can only sync: App Data, Contacts and People details, what about calendar?
Nice ROM

Has this on my phone a few days now, and I'm very impressed with it so far. No problems with the camera (but saying that I did flash the z2 camera files, but the camera didn't work but seemed to make the AOSP cam work better) this would be a keeper if there was some way to make the Sony camera work with this rom. Thank you and keep up the excellent work.

find the problem: XZDR dual recovery of the rom. removed and now the phone starts .
best app for kernel control? faux? pimp my z1?
Double Tap To Wake Up?
I heard about, that the DTW-function is actually not possible on Xperia Z1, because there is an other display obstruct.
Are there any batteryproblems with it?
Maybe you can explain how it works
@venkat kamesh why do you need to include the mpdecision binary in the zip? Will the kernel work correctly if flashed only via fastboot? I am asking becouse there are files related to wifi in the zip that will not be installed if the kernel is flashed via fastboot. Then you should tell users to flash the zip after flashing via fastboot or remove the files from zip if not needed.

actually mpdecision file runs in our system as a vendor executable file and what it does is that it controls the governor for cpu.
this file will defines performance of your cpu1, the file gets executed every time your screen goes off
and mpdecision file overwrites the cpu1 governor settings to userspace ondemand, userspace is the governor when cpu1 is online and ondemand when offline.
so i used it
Thx bro waiting long time for this
I know what mpdecision does. But it is already included in the stock rom. In one version of the DooMKernel the binary was renamed. To revert this DooMLorD included the stock binary in the flashable zip. So unless you use a modified mpdecision binary it makes no sense to include it in the zip.
aw the download link is removed/disabled.
i assume ur uploading the new zip file with the xda recovery removal script
anyway, great work and thank you so much for the kernel, as soon as the download link is available again i will download and test
cheers,
