Really glad to be the first.
Nice work. Thanks.

This kernel seems nice
Could make kernel for tx?
Very awesome..

Thank you for a version of T. We should expect to TX?

Could you make a CM10.1 version of this Kernel?
Would be great:thumbup:

Could make kernel for TX?
Many thanks

Nurij, can I bother you with some requests?
I am not going to overclock gpu, because it's the main source of heating, but there are some things I would like to try.
First thing is, that 325MHz breaks sysmon gpu perflevel switching, because default step is 300MHz. I could change it in sysmon.cfg but I want to leave it compatible with stock kernel.
But as I've tested these frequencies much, I know that two extra steps would be really usefull. Except of 128/200/300/400 steps, adding 250 and 350 would be nice.
Especially 250 MHz, because 300 is enough, but 200 is slow.
What do you think?

300
325
350 (or 365 would be better?)
400
(and overclocked ones)

I think 325 is not needed, but the frequency table can look exactly like that (with 350).
Thank you.

Looks like we already got 266MHz in the 8960 table, its just not in use
Im testing the values atm..

Great. You don't have to hurry. Tomorrow will be fine.

I think your kernel is one of the best ever. We, Xperia TX (LT29i) community, suffers of a lack of developpement. We'll be glad if you could make a similar kernel for the last 9.1.B.1.67 FW for Xperia TX. If it is useful, here is original 9.1.B.1.67 kernel: http://d-h.st/SCS Thanks in advance for your kindness.

Thanks for your work! I'm trying the kernel this night. The hyper governor seems to be nice...

really nice kernel, no wifi drops as with doomkernel and it also feels smoother, even with many apps.
using the dancedance governor, thanks for your work
Gesendet von meinem LT30p mit Tapatalk 2

After a day using this kernel, i can say by the momment works perfectly, very smooth and i have noticed absolutely no lag.
I was using the doomkernel that was very nice as well, but this is simply awesome.
Good job!:good:

Disclaimer :
I am not responsible if you brick, break, blow up, drop, lose, or get your device pregnant. Everything you do is your responsibility.
This kernel is only made for the GT-P6810 WiFi only Tablet, It is not compatible with Locerra CM9 nor CM10, and it may not work on everyone's device. I'm not a real developer and I don't know how to fix your device if you break it!
This kernel is forked (a direct copy to be more specific) from the EzyICS Kernel v1 and I thank again Ezynow for his hard work. I took his changes from his topic and adapt this kernel to the P6810. Actually, I took the .config and compare line by line which was for the P6800 and which was for the P6810. So, I disabled all the gsm/modem devices.
This kernel is not perfect and needs be to improved so don't be harsh if there's some kind of problem. I've tested it again tonight and I did not brick or whatsoever other problem... I'll list on the features which one are working and tested and others which don't.
There's only one file to download and flash it with the locerra's cwm. So, you have to install locerra's cmw first ! See below
Bugs​
None known yet
Features​
Removed MMC_CAP_ERASE (BrickBug) (tested ok) like Dedrak's one I did this :
Code:
//mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_SDIO_IRQ | MMC_CAP_ERASE;
mmc->caps |= MMC_CAP_SDIO_IRQ; // Brick Bug Fix
Built from GT-P6810_ICS_Opensource_Update1.zip;
Support for bootanimation. Place the bootanimation.zip in /system/media folder.
Various compiler optimizations (neon, cflags :-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer etc.) (Debug stuff remains for now but will be taken after some more mods are added);
Mali state tracking disabled;
/etc/init.d/S* script support (Add here your tweaks / ramscripts from custom roms etc.) (tested ok)
Added Governor :
Pegasusq (by default) - (recommend as it deals better with multi-cpu devices like our tabs but may require some tweaking)(tested ok)
interactive;
lulzactive;
lulzactiveq;
smartassV2;
hotplug.
I don't know if these governors will suit to our tab and they need to be tested.
Overclocking Support up to : 1600 mhz. It test further but the tab was not stable enough and as Ezynow said : ICS changes how frequency control is implemented so not as easily overclockable as honeycomb was. Fixed CPU Boot Up frequencies to default values / not overclocked settings (tested ok)
Undervolting Support:
Same frequencies as Eznow used : 200 / 500 / 16000 hz (As these are the most used)
So far running pretty stable on:
Code:
1600 mhz -------------------> 1300mv
1400 mhz -------------------> 1250mv
1200 mhz -------------------> 1175mv
1000 mhz -------------------> 1075mv
800 mhz ---------------------> 1000mv
500 mhz ---------------------> 875mv
200 mhz ---------------------> 875mv
ALL DEVICES will have different values but these values gave by Ezynow worked for me. Use SetCpu to change voltages or cpu overclocks. (tested ok)
Slightly undervolted GPU voltages and thus reduced by 50mv for default GPU levels. (tested ok)
in built CIFS support. Changed Max_BUFFER Size to max 130084 (Thanks to Pinkowl for first supporting this).
In cifs options put: rsize=130048. (tested ok)
NFS share mounting. (not tested)
UDF & ISO support - i.e native bluray disk support. (not tested)
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.
Compatibility list​It seems to work on all stock ICS releases or derived custom ROMs.
CM9 - Not working;
CM10 - Not working;
XXLPL - Tested: (tested ok)
Install​Go into CWM.
Make a nandroid backup.
Install zip from sdcard.
Problems​Go into CWM-> Advanced restore -> restore boot.
Changelog:​v1.1
Default cpu scaling governor set to pegasusq (siyahkernel version).
Enabled bootanimation;
pegasusq cpu scalling governor added (siyahkernel version : more stable);
interactive cpu scalling governor added;
lulzactive cpu scalling governor added;
lulzactiveq cpu scalling governor added;
smartassV2 cpu scalling governor added;
hotplug cpu scalling governor added.

If you want to add features or just want to ask questions feel free to do it

Oh nooo I on P6800..
If I on P6810...will whack this on my Tab
Nice...keep it up mengpo, any chance for P6800?

I have a suggestion for the Pegasusq governor. You could perhaps tweak it according to siyah kernel like on the sgs2?

I really can't remember if there was any link describing the pegasusq governor when it was first introduced but however, the link below is for the sources. not really sure if it will be of any use to you though. perhaps some features could be implemented over?
https://github.com/gokhanmoral/siyahkernel3
there are also some information about the ICS kernel for sgs2

Hi Mate,
Great to see the development you've made! Excellent work :good:
Still away right now and hopefully missus will have sorted out a place to stay (and ADSL) by the time I return.
Need to (want) to get started on a new ROM build for P6810 (P6810XXLPM), but that won't happen for 2 weeks.
Would love to take your kernel for a run then
Keep it up

I have many self-reboots with this kernel... What can I do?

Simple. Don't use it. This is just the first version created by Mengpo and is bound to have issues here and there. I'll wait for him to post an update (whenever that happens) before evaluating and trying it.

I did an update and changed the scalling governor (pegasusq with pagasusq (siyah version). I think the problem went from there and thus you won't have this random reboot issue.
good luck !

The v1.1 download link seems bad; says file is deleted.
Also anyone use this on Skyfire Rom, which seems based on the same stock firmware?

does the kernel in this ROM same with ZGK v1.0? If it different, can you share the kernel only?
suggestion: can you implement G-recovery for next version?

Can you delete 1000 mhz? And why VR is default?

Is that right or did you just forgot to update it?

What about your kernels . will you continue to develop ics kernel ?

Can you add some screens for us?

it's a little bit hard to add more freq, i tried alot off time's and i can't get just 1 more freq...1100 one...:| if i add more freq it will not boot, is a segmentation fault...:|

Good job! Is it fine if we flash this from another kernel?
Thank me! I need to get my thanks up from my previous account!

Not unless you can't get it up within 48 hours. Anything before then is fine.

Opening Google maps causes reboot. Cannot manually readjust voltages. Someone else confirm?

Use Trickster mod app to change the voltage

It would be great if you could make cm10.1 kernel with oc/uv and so on, doom will not make cm10.1 kernel and cm10.1 seems to be fully functional this or next week

faq
Q1 low frequencies like 81mhz not sticking
Ans turn on frequency lock in trickstermod
Q2 if you are having random reboots?
Ans lower the max freq to 1512000 and increase the min frequency to 384mhz

Very interesting. I'll test it as soon as you upload.
Can you add "true CD-ROM emulation interface" feature? DriveDroid is very useful for me.

version 1 uploaded
i dont have an xperia z so i am not sure it will boot or not

It boots but GSM doesn't work (returns error while searching network). Everything else seems fine.
Tested on Beanstalk 4.4.4.001 which is based on CM11. I'll test on CM11 later if it's necessary.

guys any one else having this problem

Graphic bugs (screen tearing when scrolling) and wifi not turning on on Thomas' CM11.
Testing on Infected's CM11 now.

guys try carbon rom by Alx31TLse

@nikhil18
You shouldn't use -Ofast Optimisations.
They do more harm rather than bringing any benefits.

First of all Thank you so much... i cant believe on my eyes when i saw first thread in OG development forum with name "lightning kernel cm11 " ..
your kernel have all the features i wanted , specially Sound control , CPU OC & Undervolting..
m really happy to see that we have working CM11 custom kernel with so many features.
btw Thomas's latest CM11 kernel source > https://github.com/daeiron/android_kernel_sony_apq8064 may be it will help u
Keep developing and Thanks again

Working flawlessly on Carbon ROM :good:
Performance has increased at least 2x.
Just one issue, GPU overclock does not stick, it resets to 400 after a while. (I use trickster mod)
PS: Doesn't work with PAC ROM.
Also works with Beanstalk( Fastboot flashed the boot.img)

are you using carbon rom by Alx31TLse?
how about battery life?

@nikhil18, i cant express my grattitude for your kernel, i confirmed alls working on latest AICP 4.4.4 KK, has everything i wanted, super fast, response is just simply amazing, i do also however face clocks reverting over time even when i manually clock via system files, but probably os doing it, thank you so much finally a KK kernel that supports everything.. If i can do anything to contribute or help please let me know, will bug report in a couple of days.

Stock 32.2.A.0.253, sorry for forgetting that.

Seems pretty nice , no lags , maybe slightly smoother ?
Battery -1% during night ( 7hours)
I had a small problem with seeder app (entropy generator) keeps asking for Root and never can turn it on, I'd same problem with stock .253 kernel but Androplus V36 don't have this problem , using latest supersu 2.76

I don't recommend you to use Seeder or apps/tweaks like this (e.g CrossBreeder), your entropy will be forced to keep a highest value as possible, yah maybe there's a little smoother in UI but some tasks may be done slower (I got worse time loading of Asphalt 8 due to this). Btw, frandom is good enough to you don't need those high entropy value

Does it work on MWA and X ROM?

RyTekk said:
NOTE 3: This kernel has been hard testing on E6683, it should work on other DSDS variant (E6633), single devices got sd card not detected and it's out of reach for me atm
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
As for SDCard detection: It depends on the appended DTB used. Appended DTB is specified in the defconfig. Basically the dtb itself is the only difference between Z5 DSDS and Z5 ROW. Appending both to the same kernel _should_ work in theory (This approach was tested on the AOSP 1.2.2 Kernel), however this doesnt work on the Z5 Devices, as both DSDS and ROW share the same msm-id in the defconfig, that way the Bootloader itself can't determine which is the correct dtb, and uses the one which is appended first. This means you need seperate Kernel images for ROW and DSDS.
Took me a while to figure out for OM5Z, though I'd share it so you can save up that research time

Can any developers make an AndroPlus V36 for E6683/33 (with full SD CARD support)?

Is recovery include in kernal

I tried to build a kernel with diffconfig sumire but the sd card wasn't recognized, so I decided to not support devices that I don't own for now if there's no one who's interested in it. I will ask you later

Use kernel manager apps (e.g Kernel Adiutor) instead to adjust it, I kept it due to boosting the bootup time.

The kernel seems not working on custom ROM, like X ROM and MWA. Everytime I flash your kernel, it can boot normally but the SystemUi always get force closed. However, it seems work quite good on my friend's Z5 E6633 running stock firmware.
Thanks for your work.

Hello, thanks for the contribution. Have you got any plan for adding z5c support?
