Hi, you could try one of these: 1.7 Beta 1 1.7 Beta 4 1.7 Beta 9 Considering the amount of time that has passed since building these, can't even tell if they work. They should, though. They're all for LWW, Coconut. Take care, Ka.

Hi, latest Beta of 1.7 can always be found here: http://build.ka.st:8080/job/Kappa/ws/release/ This one has been updated about ten days ago with Kernel patched up till rev 2.6.32.69. It's only a Beta and can't test it on LWW but should be acceptable. Take care, Ka.

I didn't "retire" but been scarily busy since September last year. I'm following the forum, from time to time, not using my Mini nor my Mini Pro but plan on using them soon once I get some free time and fix the remaining issues. Probably in about a month or so I'll be able to have a go at it...

Rooting it is not that difficult as "adb shell" grants you a root shell. With that you remount /system as rw: busybox mount -o,remount rw /system Grap the superuser update zip and extract it, then you adb push "su" to /system/xbin remember to suid it (chmod 4755) Then remount system ro: busybox...

Hi there, after a few days with it, can say I'm relatively pleased. Ok, watch is definitely "bulkier" than what the picture in the online store might suggests but it's working pretty well. With the watch forced in 2G, Wifi on (to connect when available) and moderate use, battery lasts about...

Totally agree with latest two posters. This rom is great, only the maker knows if it can be even better... Do you accept the challenge? ;) Ka.

Yep, it does. Ka.

Hello, hello, helo, was about time a new Beta faced the sun and here it is. After trying various toolchains, going from gcc 4.7 to 4.8, then 4.9 and even touching 4.10... Got to the conclusion that for this kernel 4.7 is still the best... At least till I figure out what happens with the camera...

Hi there, some news, little, yet some news. Just for sake of peace of mind decided to recompile with GCC 4.7 and... Abracadabra, camera works as before. Gonna release a new beta, with a few changes (they'll be detailed in the "release" post) sometime between today and tomorrow. Take care, Ka.

Hi, 4.9 not too happy with it. I might try another one. Ka.

Hi there, didn't find, despite looking, any post regarding the watch I recently bought and about to receive, so take liberty to call for info if anyone has any. The watch is sold in many sites as: Z01 Android 4.2 3G Smart Bluetooth Watch 1.3GHZ MTK6572 Dual Core 4GB ROM Camera Except for...

Thanks again for the logs! While I was trying to get a freeze myself, finally managed to get one. Actually, like the ones you mention, a freeze followed by a reboot. Mine actually got a kernel panic logged in the last_kmsg... Unfortunately other logs don't mention any "forced reboot" or kernel...

Hi there, I'm looking to the lack of smoothness compared to last build. Checking into UKSM... Odd though. For the reboot... I guess this is my new "battery bug" ;) I'm treating my poor Mini the worst way I can. Start several apps, jump from one to the other. Launch Antutu several times, run...

Hi there, I know you won't be monitoring this thread anymore, yet I wanted to publically express my gratitude for your work. Your kernel has been an example, source of many fixes, bits of genius and the "push" to improve. You were also one of the very few "big names" (if not the only one) in...

Being built as we speak http://build.ka.st:8080/job/Kappa/28/ Update: Piano Tiles starts and works ;) Ka.

Hi! Thanks for your reports. I finally managed to grab another Mini Pro after my brother stole mine (his was broken, got a Mini too anyway). Last week ordered the first 3 Mini Pro I could find on Ebay. The first arrived yesterday. Can test again on Mini Pro too (although this bug should appear...

Which version did you try? Ka.

Thank you very much for this pretty impressive test report. I look into the kernel log you provided me with, it seems that the kernel stop just after setting up the serial console. Then reboots. Could find no error message, just reboot. Checking if any patch was made to msm_serial on some other...

Quite strange you got it working by flashing another kernel's modules. Drivers / Modules are tied to the kernel by what is called "Version Magic"... Generally you can't load a driver which was compiled against another kernel, with a different version magic. Anyway... Better download the latest...

Check again the latest releases on Jenkins... Wifi should work now. http://build.ka.st:8080/job/Kappa/ws/release/ Me silly, didn't update the default configs... The automatic build process was using old ones with no embedded wifi drivers. Sorry about that, Ka.

Thanks! Give a try to the latest Jenkins build if you fancy! Ka.

Did you have the freeze and reboot before the battery bug fix? Ka.

Hi there, for people willing to test ongoing 1.7 Betas... I tried to make it a little easier. My friend Jenkins is making every night a new build based on the latest committed changes. You can grab the releases here: Kappa 1.7 Beta Releases And Travis-CI will tell you if at least it builds...

I'll do that, thanks for the tip, but first I'll make my phone totally empty. Don't know why a game asks permissions even to know what I had for lunch. ;) Ka.

Can't test Coconut 'cause I don't have one myself but here is another build, just in case http://www.mediafire.com/download/cmdimmd34071dpe/KaCoconut3.img Ka.

Hi there, first of all, thanks for your help! I'm trying to find out what is actually happening with the lag. Personally not a gamer (Except for 2048 ;) ) nor I watch videos on my phone. For basic stuff like I do, I never saw any "appreciable" lag. Yet... Very recently somebody very close to me...

Hi there! Anybody cares trying a new test version for Smultron-Mini / Mango-MiniPro? Mini Mango Compared to 1.6... Please see for a list of relevant changes included in this test builds You have to consider that this version is a full rebuild of 1.6 towards 1.7 And yes, of course, it's got...

Hi there! First of all, sorry for not being around lately, really sorry, but yes, I'm alive ;) I'd like to express my gratitude to all the people that are keeping this kernel alive, either by using it, or patching it, while I'm away. Seeing that so many people are still interested and...

Hi there, thanks a lot for your post job.bousix, let me that your points one by one. The CWM included in Kappa is a CWM that was kind-of patched to include some of the features of the CWM released for JB and later Android versions. The official CWM for our devices is pretty old. I never ever...

Hi there, quick status if you don't mind. Once again I disappeared for a long time, yet it doesn't mean I totally forgot about this kernel nor that I don't plan on delivering a new version. Lot of stuff is happening in my private and professional life that make use of my time not always I'd...

Added exFAT (needed couple of fixes as it's back ported from a 3.x kernel) Ka.

Got no issues rebooting to CWM from Rom... Tested with both ICS and 4.1 Now flashing Hepta Erro. Ka.

Hi, fixed init.d support. Now working in both ICS and JB. KaMenu I'll leave for last, till I fix the SDcard issue in 4.2.2 Ka.

Hi, Camera in CM10 is now fixed, inverted in the rom I tested but working Still debugging the rest. Ka.

Thank you all, very much, very, very much for your feedback! Really appreciated! I'll be looking into your reports, one thing after the other. Take care, Ka.

Camera works ok with ICS and 4.2.2 (at least the Rom I tried) but is giving issues with 4.1.1 Ka.

Excellent Rom for people willing to leave ICS and go JB! Really good job, extremely light and blazing fast! Ka.

I'll look into this, thanks. Oddily enough, camera seems to work in 4.2.2 but sdcard isn't. Ka.

Latest builds of 1.7 Beta 12. Working ICS boot (of course) and all the previous stuff in 1.6, but hopefully faster Fixed video playback (please confirm this) Fixed battery 100% bug Fixed init.d scripts execution Work in progress JB 4.1 boots, wifi works a first boot, not yet tested deeply...

Lww coming soon. I'll look into that fat Sent via mobile

So, for example, here is the latest Mango / Mini Pro Beta of 1.7 http://d-h.st/F7t Ka.

Let me fix a couple things more before I release it... Now ROW seems to act funny with when copying in USB Storage mode. Had to revert to SIO to copy a rom via CWM... I want to fix these "annoyances" before I release a final version. This doesn't mean I won't release other betas in the meantime...

From time to time, I happen also to fix stuff instead of just breaking it ;) Cheers, Ka.

Recorded a short movie (15s) of me walking (my feet only) and played it back with quickpic. It works. Ka.

With the right player I guess it does... Ka.

I'm really glad it does! The beta I sent you already boots JB (4.1)... But don't be yet too happy about it, wifi doesn't work. Still working on it. Ka.

Better! Try http://d-h.st/xAu but can't tell you if it boots or not. (Coconut only!) Take care, Ka.

Precious info! Ka.

Got some issues uploading it to Mediafire... Bear with me, by end of today at most you'll have it. You have to know though that I can't test Coconut builds, can't even tell if it actually boots or not. Ka.

I'm still not too sure if I'll go the extended partition way... Maybe packing hybrid boot and extended partitioning would be a bit too much. After all, my original aim was to make a decent ICS kernel. JB booting is already a plus. BTW... Tested 4.2 and it boots too. Need to fix the Wifi issue...
