{PRO} [ROM/KERNEL] pzyCM9 [v3 Updated (15 JUN)] - Xperia Arc Android Development

I am not responsable of any damage that you or you phone will suffer by using our work.
* to answer naveen88's question its based on the latest ics git
This is just a FreeXperia fork with some little fixes from me:
* backuptool fixed (gapps will be backupped and restored on update) (v1)
* Keyboard layout for HW Keyboard will be saved (after the first update) (v1)
* added own kernel with some new governors smoothass, smartassv2, brazillianwax etc (v1)
* front camera fixed (v1)
* enabled Kernel Samepage Merging in the kernel configuration (v3)
Just unzip the boot.img flash via fastboot flash boot boot.img and then install the zip via CWM

Download v3:
* updated to latest git from FXP/CM9 from github
* enabled KSM (http://www.linux-kvm.com/content/using-ksm-kernel-samepage-merging-kvm) which gives me average about 20-30MB more RAM available

Edit: Your Kernel Rocks! Kompatibel with CM9 and the Blackscreen Kamera bug, of the latest FXP Build, is fixxed. Awesome! gona try now your ROM
Front Camera Working! Videorecorder works not, but this is ok

2.6.32.9 it is...is there a 3.0.8 source for Xperia? In the new Original ICS ROM? I did not find hint on this i thought in Sonys ICS it's still the 2.6.39...

Yes it should be compatible with CM9/FXP....but whats the blackscreen bug? Do you mean the Frontcamera bug? because everything else i am not aware of

The Camera in the Latest FXP Build shows a black screen.
Die Kamera im neuesten FXP Build zeigt nur einen schwarzen Bildschirm, mit deinem Kernel ist das Problem weg
Es soll einen 3.0.8 Kernel geben, bei dem Funzt aber wifi nicht und ist anscheinend nicht mit CM9 Kompatibel, schau mal im EMMA Thread nach

What's the base of your kernel? Up until recently at least, the FXP kernel was badly broken and ate battery life like a fat bird eats cake. If you've got this sorted it might be time for me to take another look.

it's the latest kernel from https://github.com/freexperia/semc-kernel-msm7x30-ics.git

does the kernel have the patch fix for battery life?

as far as i know its in the xperia kernel so my kernel should have it to, its the same, i just added some governors

Unfortunately you have inherited the DHCP-problem CM9 is having with the last releases. I can't get an IP on WiFi with DHCP just like on FXP122 and 123. I hope the fix that soon.

tHANK YOU VERY MUCH ¡¡ consumes less battery than the version Cyanogenmod 9 fxp 123 ???

Doesn't work. I can't set the unlock pattern either it seems. And please, in the next version turn on the USB debugging by default. It helps so much in solving problems.
Still, respect for jumping in to the cold water. I still can't get up enough courage, to try and build my own custom ROM. Keep up the great work!

updated to latest FXP/CM9 GIT...
sorry that it took so long but i couldn't enter Recovery after last update, i though i f*cked (sh)it up, but it seems someone else did it
let me know if something is broken...
now that i know how to build and change things i will try to fix some real bugs..like camcorder/HDMI out or stuff like this..

Thank you for the hardwork, please look into the below link. There is a fix for camera viewfinder bug and video recording bug in xperia arc. I guess you can implement the same fix for xperia pro

Screenshots???

Frontcamera goes, video recorder not. Thanks for you work.

Camera preview doesn´t work for me, I was able to take pictures but got a FC when I tried to record video, BTW I didnt flash your kernel, maybe that can be the problem?

video recorder and panorama is broken in fxp
won't work neither with this custom kernel
if you want videorecorder and ICS, you need to flash official ICS or the MIUI one

Just installed, feels awesome. Hardware keyboard works only in english and won't change layout by hardware button - and buttons won't match. Symvols menu won't pop up (hardware button for it). Hope that will be fixed. I'll be able to post images if you want.

[ROM][APR 11] MIUIv5 3.4.5 beta 2 (unofficial) for the new bootloader

Presenting MIUIv5 (4.1.2) 3.3.30 beta for the new bootloader (unofficial)
KoolSavas has contacted me to inform that he is interested in working as the joint developer of this ROM
Thanks buddy!
Read this post entirely before using the ROM or asking any questions!
What is the difference between this ROM and the one on MIUI site?
They stole and used pengus77's work without his permission. Following this community since more than a year (and working since a few months), I know how much he has contributed to the O2x community, and hence I have the highest respect for him. So I never use pengus77's work without his consent. In short, this ROM has been ported with his permission
I also plan to remove Xiaomi related stuff from the ROM in the final release as much as I can.
This is a beta version, so some stuff may not work.
Q. So why did you post it?
A.
1. I dont have the time to test all the features in a detailed manner so I am relying on the testers to give feedback. I tested calls, wifi, app installation etc.
2. KoolSavas and I live in regions with different time zones, so most of the time, we are not online at the same time. This also serves as a mechanism for us to share our work, and encourage other testers to dig up as many initial bugs as possible
Known issues have been listed in the post and dont need to be restated
Firstly, I want to thank Ricardo for all his work on CM for our phone. Since this ROM uses CM10 as base, it would not be possible without RC's work.
This ROM has been ported to the O2x from various other devices having official MIUI support (such as the Nexus S, Photon, Atrix etc.) and the MIUI team deserves credit for all of that.
This would not be possible without pengus77 and the other devs who brought CM10 to the new bootloader. His thread is here. His latest build of CM10 for the new bootloader was used as the base ROM
Kowalski kernel is the recommended kernel for this ROM. The ROM doesnt come with the kernel included, so flash it separately
Screenshots:
Here
Thanks to clashman for the screenshots
Details of the ROM:
For use with NEW unlocked ICS bootloader only, tested with TWRP (thanks to tonyp for his work on TWRP!)
Multilanguage support planned, but not added yet in this version
Does not come with gapps, you need to flash it separately
Superuser:
Before installing anything, first activate root permission from 'Permission' app in 'Security' folder. Select 'manage root permission' and enable it.
This only needs to be done once, and all superuser prompts will come as usual when you install/use root apps.
If you installed or tried to use any root apps before doing this, and your app no longer gets root access, reinstall that app.
Battery:
To see percentage battery indicator on the status bar, go to settings->battery and change the battery indicator style
Performance:
To make the UI transitions faster, you can use the good old standard tip:
Go to settings->developer options
Set 'window animation scale', 'transition animation scale' and 'animator duration scale' all to "0.5x". UI animations will seem twice as fast after doing this.
If the ROM becomes slow over time, do a reboot.
And try not to do a lot of stuff in the first few seconds when SD card scanning is going on, sync is going on or when apps are updating in the background. Its not right to complain of "this/that doesnt work" or lag when you do that
Some cool tips and tricks to improve your MIUI experience(taken from the official site):
Tips, tricks and shortcuts
Download links:
Download link for version 3.4.5
Gapps download link
Download link for older versions:
Download link for version 3.3.30
Instructions:
Make a full wipe if you are coming from any other ROM, and flash it in recovery.
Dont forget to flash the 4.1.2 gapps
Standard disclaimer:
I am not responsible if anything goes wrong with your phone.
If someone has posted a bug and you have the same bug, just thank their post or wait. No need to flood with the same bug reports.
Small problems such as some app related problems can be dealt with at a later stage.
Known issues:
led notification lights are always off
camera app does not display preview of pic taken (you can see the photo in gallery app )
Credits:
RC and the rest of the CM team for all their work
MIUI team (especially the Nexus S team and Photon team headed by Th3bill)
wkpark for cracking the new bootloader and making it possible to use custom ROMs with it
Pengus77 and the other devs who brought CM10 to the new bootloader.
feav for his camera mod
Changelog
11/4/13: Version 3.4.5
Version 3.4.5 (see all official changes in miui site)
Included feav's camera app (JB version). Thanks a lot to feav for letting me integrate his mod into this ROM.
So, the camera app is working properly now
Themes are now working
Reserved for multilanguage pack (coming soon )

Wow Very cool system
I am very stoked to see this running.
Im sorry i havent done logcats but..
I got the root setting crashing, and also the camera just no picture and also soft keys staying lit
But feav's cm10 cam works sweet.
once these odd bits are resolved i think i will run this fulltime.
Back to cm10 for now.

[ROM][4.2.2] Mackay rom reloaded (03-12-13)

This ROM is based on the awesome work of kasper_h with some improvements on stabilty and the latest source from CM, so it's pretty close to stock.
Kernel is the mackay kernel updated to latest 3.0.y linux branch, with some improvements from the stock one.
Improvements/fixes:
Device:
App2sd fixed (init procedure adapted from galaxy sl rom)
General code cleanup
Triple buffering for smoother animations
Enabled WebGL
Increased powervr buffer size (powervr.ini from Eviscerations velox rom)
Charger suspend implementation to turn off screen in charger mode
Proximity sensor on call screen fixed
Other minor performance tweaks in Boardconfig, init...
(patches mostly taken from galaxy s/sl CM rom)
Kernel:
Kernel patched to latest 3.0.101
Included lots of patches from the latest LG kernel sources
Full wipe is necessary since the mountpoint and procedure of the sdcard is changed!
Known issues:
- Video recording is crappy as usual... (if someone is interested in helping to port the camera hal, please let me know)
- Wifi hotspot (?)
Install:
If you have mackay rom or another cm10.1 based rom => full wipe!
Flash with with CWM or TWRP recovery, then flash the gapps on top.

Factory reset is required or you will end up with double folders in your gallery and other strange things..
Update: somehow i got the lg camera hal working, previews are working fine, but the capturing doesn't trigger, settings (white balance, exposure...) don't take effect, no autofocus and the image is blueish.
strangely video recording works fine
Hmm. Good work mate. I am happy with CM10 build but if you get the camera to normal, i will try your ROM. By normal i mean CM standards, i don't have high expectations.

seriously the lg camera hal is nothing for ordinary mortals like me... a lot of features are controlled by the fw3a binaries and icapture lib, and i can't find the sources for them anywhere.
btw the camera in my build works, just on hd video recording sometimes it freezes and has low framerates (usual p970 standard )
as i remember well this bug was also present on cm10, correct me if i'm wrong

Ah, ok then mate. I thought camera was troubled. If it is normal CM quality on P970 then i will try it when i have the phone empty for couple of days. I don't care much about video, a decent photo quality is enough for me, in case i need it. Thanks.

New weekly CM11 builds with TonyP´s sources

Hi guys. In addition to Tonyp`s thread(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2769730) I will upload weekly builds with his special sources + the newest cm11 sources.
JustArchis optimizations are included in the folder with the same name.
Feel free to check it out.
All credits goes to TonyP and Pengus who made our phone alive, but also credits to all the others, who gave their ideas and much time to the community. Special thanks to BS86, who stimulated me to start the big adventure "Building a Rom".
And last but not least thanks to JustArchi who told us how to "freshup" the code.
I am using TWRP 2.6 for my own. If you have trouble in installing try this one.
Here`s my basketbuild Folder:

mmm disagree... actually it is a matter of taste, but on 3.1 version wifi is way more stable and quicker. At least for me!
Can you add option to swap internal and external memory like in cm 10.2 by tonyp?

Camera bug
Thanks guys. Thats good news! I will build a rom with 3.1 in the next days and test it. If its working well I will upload it to basketbuild.
I'm trying your build and for now no problems..congratulations
3.1 build
Ok guys. I get strange build-errors with the newest cm-sources,
Even so I managed to build a rom with the 3.1 kernel. I changed Tonyp`s frameworks/base and packages/apps/settings with the original cm-sources. So the included patches are dropped naturally!!!
You can find the rom in my basketbuild folder.
In the next days I will try to fix the issues, but I promise nothing!
My first impression of the rom is quite well, but we all have to test more....
The camera bug is nearly gone. Sometimes the picture gets upside down, but after a while its correct. I made some photos with the build-in kernel. Actually I installed Firtecy`s kernel. Thank you for your support and all credits to you!
Last: Check out this rom at your own risk! Backup your files and then format bevor installing!
Looking forward!
maybe the problem you can't build with tonyp's sources is the toarch apk?

I installed 3.1 rom and it is just fine. I tested camera alot but till now no upside-down picture.
I also remember that tonyp said a while ago that torch app broke building rom.
Thanks guys. Torch isnt the problem(Tony got this advice by me some weeks ago
But I could reduce the exchanging files to 4 meanwhile. So I got a big step forwards. Today I have to write an essaybut I will upload the new build in the evening.

Issues:
*Incorrect colors is caused by the (buggy EGL since the other BCM21654 devices have an official JellyBean update, implementing EGL from Ice Cream Sandwich is not working). I am working on it but for the time , use the theme attached in the attachments Thanks to HAKA Theme http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951801

Okay I have a test build here it is mixed with sources of galaxy music and galaxy pocket plus it boots up and most of the bugs are fixed like EGL , Wifi etc. But the main thing that doesn't work is TOUCH its broken (its kernel related) so not so much can be done but logcat can be taken for now i will try to fix it soon http://www.mediafire.com/download/3b9d2nu2ozi1fa1/Build.zip
Hey Guys, it has been a long time now and i haven't updated the rom that doesn't mean that the development has discontinued i was busy with a lot of personal stuff so wasn't able to update and apart from this i have also started to port cm11 side by side to cm10 well i did this order to learn more about our device ill soon upload the cm roms with new recovery, thanks for your understanding
hope to see it working
hope to see it working, i really need anything better than stock

Good! so after fixing touch the rom will probaly be usable
I can try to ask team hurricane, some time ago they created a cyanogenmod rom for galaxy pocket that was having working touch.
EDIT: For now I found pocket neo/duos kernel and device tree souces. I don't know if they can help because i never developed a rom but here are:

MK kernel for Stock Base Roms 4.1.2 - Links & Discussion

Hi guys...i'm moving all discuttion of MK kernel for stock 4.1.2 from Sami OS thred to here so that Developemnt therad of SamiOS remains clean
Kernel & link
latest version with No teraing and almost bug free... here are some changes/review
#version3Latest Version Download
#version4One more version it should work for i9070P & some more features
NOTE : This is not my work , @mkaluza initiated it for CM and @PolishVodka made it available for Stock 4.1.2 you should thank them both
Below is Older version with some bugs mentioned below...so not recommended !
PolishVodka said:
Here is mkaluza's kernel for stock JB, working:

Click to collapse
http://www.mediafire.com/?x6gw3cg833x8k51
To install Flash zip in cwm or twrp
Personally I use smartassv2 (more smooth than default dynamic which is more battery friendly ! )
1.2GHz OC
And some init.ds to make UI more smoother...which you can find here
You guys should check mkaluza wikis in github too . Lots of useful info there, especially this:
https://github.com/mkaluza/project-zen/wiki/Janice-performance-settings
and Dynamic governor related wiki:
https://github.com/mkaluza/project-zen/wiki/Dynamic-governor
To all
some more info about MK stock kernel
Ram available for user was 647 MB for me ( 650 i n latest ! )
multitasking and app loading was exceptionally better !
to newbies plz don't blindly follow cocore commands/ init.d here bcz there are some changes here..[B].if you don't understand or used to with kernel commands and things , I advised you to stay way from this kernel for little while till final build comes[/B]
you can go for it now
and keep one thing in mind nandroid back up created by phillz recovery won't work with simple CWM ( atleast it didn't work for me) though it works with phillz
so if you use this kernel and you need to take backup... flash cocore and do it ...or use temporary CWM
Some discussion
1st one here is about 1st build...so if you wasn't aware of it you can skip this one and go to review directly
hastalafiesta said:
Try to extract 4.1.2 ramdisk and put it in /efs, then flash mkaluza kernel.
I have followed this simple step to make it bootable on cm 10.1.
You can find the guide to extract it on mkaluza thread.

it won't work like that in stock 4.1.2 but
anyway @PolishVodka made one more build and it booted ..i tested it...there are some minor bugs in it which i reported and he will make final build and publish it... ( though i didn't get reply yet... may be this is because of time difference and when i reported there should be night
here is copy of my final review which i send to him
PSS : you got my reply about kernel booting right ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, yes I got your previous message.
No problem I can wait till tomorrow for your review. Thank you.

Click to collapse
good stuff 1st
performance is exceptionally good ...i mean very very good especially with smartassv2
battery life is decent with smartassv2 & dynamic
no random reboot at all with OC @1.2
overall very stable
now some bugs
i alreay told yesterday about faint horizontal lines ( though they are not hurting much but still if they can be removed it'll be great ) & Jumpy UI
now one weird bug and it must be fixed ...is when we rotate screen it flickers very badly and turn offs this problem is lesser in smartassv2 & excessive in dynamic
see videos below
smartassv2
dynamic
you can see smartass v2 can open COC without waking screen while in dynamic i have to wake it ( actually screen doesn't look it self but it turns off so to wake it i hve to lock it and unlock it again ) ...and while seeing such Turned off scrren in complete Dark i can see screen on/off faintly which means process of loading is there but don't know why screeb offs
one more video...i'm not sure you can see it properly but whole track of tamplerun 2 is little bit jumpy
i'm hoping you can fix this bugs and make more smoother...you can ask cocafe for help in both of these or you can check his github for help to make UI smooth ( see master branch bcz in refresh version UI is not that smooth )
and don't abandon this kernel without fixing because it has really good potential , support this kernel as long as you can
and finally you should change default governor to smartassv2.. it's more resopnsive than dynamic , better performance and not much battery drain ... Newbies will like it more and experience user can chance if they want to use Dynamic and see difference by them self
Finally Thanks for this kernel

Then there is no kernel support.

yah it doesn't support CRT but i don't care. and IMO this feature is now worth to waste time

Have you noticed that with Mk Kernel on JB, the screen seems to be a bit brighter than usual?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yah it's more brighter this is because you are comparing it with cocore not stock kernel ...in cococre auto brightness was lowered !
.
@PolishVodka please put something on github, or at least tell us what have you changed in the kernel, if we collaborate we could have a bugless kernel! @ChronoMonochrome can you help us to fix the errors mentioned in the op?

This is not true.
Official Mk Kernel works with no problem on stock 4.1.2. I've used JB-4.1-stock-CoCore-cwm-6.0.3.4.boot.cpio.gz ramdisk, renamed to boot.cpio.gz and placed in the efs folder. Then installed the kernel 5.4.0 no swap.

I'm comparing it with stock kernel... and it's brighter. I have no doubts.
Boot animation working for me too.
Camera opening makes the screen tearing. (on both PolishVodka and official versions)

if you have no doubt then check with some brightness and illumination test app and you will see stock & this kernel have same brightness level !
Not only camera opening any rotation to screen makes it tears most of times ...
& this thread is not about official MK if you still using it have some problem then you should report it in official thread

You have answered to Reinkaros here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59215110&postcount=804 and Hastalafiesta here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59255043&postcount=821
They have suggested to use official MK Kernel but you instead have tried to use the ramdisk with the first release of PolishVodka... so that's why your phone failed to boot. First release of PolishVodka will never boot. And that's why he released a second version.
And this second version seems to be nothing else than the official Mk Kernel with included stock ramdisk and some more zram.
Both official and PolishVodka versions act the same.
Ah, and that brightness levels are the same means nothing if the screen is still brighter...
Anyway now i'm using PolishVodka version and i'll be glad to help.

Sorry,i didn't see it. 647mb free ram ?! I think i never had more than 320-350 free ram and now is double. That's a big change. Did you try to open 2 games or open a game and a chat app or browser? The other app in background close?
647 MB is total ram, not free ram.
I fix screen tearing and flickering in my Kernel using this commit by mkaluza. Hope it works for PolishVodka :good:

Why asking me? I'm not a stock user and don't have janice too. Never had mentioned bugs. I can only suggest to use Interactive/ZenX to make some games lagless.

Just wanted to say that mentioned bugs maybe not a kernel fault. It's difficult to advice anything especially because it's just reports about lagginess in some games. I'm not a hard gamer too. Maybe you can compare same things on various ROMs.

Well i'm also not hard gamer..and i gave the examples where bugs was most clear
I took Dolphin browser to show screen tearing while rotation
Then COC for screen goes off during loading ( perhaps this happes in landscape apps only )
And finally TR2 to show jumpyness
But these bug weren't only in this things specifics...one can see jumpy UI in setting also , screen tearing in other apps like one person said in camera on/off
So it's not just about game and rom related bcz with same Rom and cocore any of given bugs is not there !
Anyway i didn't get any reply from PolishVodka since last build so may be he's too busy or may be this is it for this kernel !
@hastalafiesta
If you have some knowledge about kernel and you wants to continue you should start it from MK kernel Github bcz @Cassiusss was able to boot it directly on stock by boot.cipo.gz and you can ask PolishVodka if you stuck on boot , about how to fix it
