Hello everyone

come through this report I will not be more build- 78Kernel for Xperia ZL / ZQ since you guys know I have faced many problems with my machine, I had to send it twice to guarantee and this has very wronged me

I resorted to a new device, but not sent, so I asked refund of the amount paid, so now bought a Xperia Z3

I'm sorry to let you guys in hand, because I know that this model is precarious in development, here are my apologies!
Maybe if I get access to any device able to create an advanced kernel or even 78Kernel for Lollipop (if released as expected)

A few days ago I have pushed some valuable commits to 78Kernel, I will consider a construction soon, perhaps as a farewell ...

Maybe if I figure out how to build a kernel I'll take up the torch.

I would love to see one final kernel and if you needed someone to test a zl kernel I can.

hello Gustavo RD78, I no longer ZL, I've had two but I was disappointed with the battery life, too poor for my needs. gold I xperia z3 compact and live very happy. but I wanted to thank you for all your work you've done to date for sharing it with users around the world. thanks thanks thanks

sorry friend! maybe try a building in the dark in Lollipop
Thank you!

Happy to know that I can count on you to test!
If you have some knowledge and a Linux machine (I use Ubuntu) already configured for the construction of kernels I can give tips on how to build

Thanks for the words friend!
Now trying to figure out a root way without unlocking BL and certainly appear 78Kernel to XperiaZ3 :good:
Thanks!

can i flash it to locked bootloader??

Hi all
I did not forget you guys! :highfive:

I'll update soon follow (or create another)

78Kernel completely written from scratch on new sources KitKat Android 4.4.4 - 10.5.1.A.0.283

Features: (yet)
Removed MPdecision, Substituted by AutoSMP (gain incredible battery life without losing performance)
Force the other colors to match CPU0 When changing frequency or gov
Add init.d
Overall softer vibration modified by default (besides being sexier Also preserves battery)
Disable debug various
Tune read_ahead_kb for 256
Add conservative governor
Add deadline IO scheduler
Add 192MHz slot 800mV
Add support for CPU voltage control
Reduce buffer size to save kernel memory size (more free ram)
Add double tap to wake (default is not enabled)
CWM recovery by Philz Touch 6.48.4 (thanks to @ [NUT])
TWRP 2.7.1.0 (thanks to @ [NUT])
and more ...

Notes:
mpdecision will be automatically copied to /storage/sdcard0/backup_mpdecision (backup)
The successor ASMP is already enabled by default
192MHz frequency is set by default and will be loaded at boot
I have also fixed a script that did not work well sometimes setting ondemand as default governor (interactive use)

I think that is all :good:

Download:
78Kernel_KitKat_4.4.4_v1

Any doubts just ask

Even more!

    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.

    see the second post for more information

    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 ;)

    I'm running 1.7GHz overclock using a frequency table and tuned particularly written by me, and the speed and excellent, not noticed high energy consumption, reboots and etc, then more than suitable for everyday use!

    The vibration pattern of my Xperia ZQ / ZL is not very nice, I think very strong and cause noise to
    then it is now possible to modify further increase or decrease the intensity of vibration

    So ... sexy!
