it makes things easy for all users... if u want more control over things & if u want to lock system in RO mode just save the following as a file in /system/etc/init.d/
Code:
#!/sbin/sh
/sbin/busybox mount -o remount,ro /system

How is that going??
Would love to have a nice sound when I boot my XPlay, like the PS3 boot sound, or seeing as i'm a retro gamer, the PS1 sound
P.S. Hope u can enjoy another beer on me
there are some things missing on stock... i dont have too much time to spend on this small thing
i will be glad if anyone can look into this...
it works well on CM7/MIUI
we need the stagefright files which will allow us to play an MP3 file using those binaries...
this is STOCK kernel... so battery life will be SAME as stock kernel...
It makes things significantly more difficult for me.
using init.d sucks supposed to use services. (Don't even have the mandatory start / stop / restart implimented if its done like it).
Don't get me wrong I am pleased though you released this (I never managed to extract the stock kernel from kernel.sin properly before).
Anyone wants stock (insecure/debuggable) kernel.
No hacks no other changes. (If you need to install superuser / su you can either install the zip from chainsdd's site from the freexperia recovery or install it manually over adb or via flashtool)
Probably want to install your own busybox as well as the one provided by SE is highly crippled. (push it to /system/xbin and then /system/xbin/busybox --install -s /system/xbin)
(The sdcard tweaks make my sdcard perform worse. / other tweaks I don't understand enough about to know whether they are good or bad). This feels smoother than the forest kernel I was using.
I have this kernel
And I want to move to this one: [KERNEL][PLAY][GSM] DooMKernel [Rel:v10][Dt:17/JAN][FW:.42/.58/.62]
When I enter fast mode and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img", it gives me "error cannot load 'boot.img' "
Any help please ?

Replace "boot.img" with the full name of the kernel, or rename the kernel to "boot.img"
Thank you so much man
I have not dealt with it before, so I don't know how to use it. But maybe in future when I read some threads about it.
done...
posted mirrors to new direct download server!!!
huge thanks to icxperia.com admin - homeworlder to give me server space/bandwidth!
Hello again Mr. DooMLoRD,
I have a quick question, the WiFi modules u provide with this kernal, are they good for .62 as well as .42?? if not, is there an updated module fix with the .62 bits?
I'm not having any problems with the modules, I just wondered

Thanx for the info mate, I was also just wondering, if u would be so kind, could u tell me where the FIRST screen that comes up (the one that says "SONY ERICSSON") is stored on the phone, I wanna make my own screen for that but I can not find it ANYWHERE =/
Also, I just wanted to say, I was using ur V11 kernal, but I just wasn't using all the features, so thought I would be best on this one, I wasn't over clocking, and to be totally honest, I had no idea what any of the other features did, lol. The updated recovery would be nice on here tho, not the boot manager, but ur newest (non-full touch) recovery would be lovely, BUT..... I know ur a busy man, so I am not demanding anything

That static screen is called bootlogo/boot screen/splash screen...
Check my thread list, it has links on how to create ur own bootlogo...
Regarding other stuff... I won't update this kernel with stuff from my main kernel... This is supposed to be a minimal kernel...
Sent from my LT18i using XDA App
Thanx mate
No worries about the updates, its all good
the recovery does what it needs to do, so its fine with me. ur a star, many many thanx!!
does this work with sky go? Sky Go works with stock kernel, just wondering if this would work too?
I've had Sky Go working on this kernel AND the full DooMKerneL
Just uninstalled it cos it was crap, lol.
Hi Doomlord, just wondering is it possible u could make this kernel as .ftf so that user with locked bootloader can use this kernel also.
Coz its still basicly a stock kernel right?? Anyway i'm just wondering. Would be nice if it can be done.
Regards,
Sdojoin

cheers!1Features of my custom touch edition recovery
base recovery sources are from koush/CyanogenMod/FreeXperia Team... i have added more features to it and my team mate, Napstar, has worked on adding the Touch capabilities...
[ features ]
- remapped key layouts for specifically for Xperia PLAY
- revamped layout for recovery menu (to improve navigation) [renamed few options and changed their order]
- changed "wipe data/factory reset" option to just "factory reset", and detailed the partitions which will be wiped
- added reboot options
- reboot into system
- reboot into recovery
- reboot into fastboot mode
- some modification in "Partition SDCard" section:
- put up a confirmation to warn the user that this option will wipe sdcard
- added ability to select filesystem when creating new layout
- add confirmation to "backup" option in Nandroid menu... it used to keep getting pressed by mistake and start making backups immediately... now it will ask u before starting backup
- removed tons of "NO"s from some menus...
[ how to enter recovery ]
- when the device is booting the new bootlogo will be shown, keep watching the notification LED
- when the LED turns BLUE keep pressing the BACK button
- you will now enter my custom recovery
[ how to navigate in recovery ]
- the recovery is touch edition so controls are on screen
- if someone prefers to use hardware buttons the the mapping is as follows:
- BACK button -- to go BACK in menu
- HOME button -- to navigate UP in menu
- MENU button -- to navigate DOWN in menu
- SEARCH button -- to SELECT menu item
1Sorry to be dumb dude......can we overclock with this kernel?
obviously not...1
Nope, you would need a dedicated recovery partition which the device lacks.
