DooMKernel for Xperia TX!!!




[ intro ]


so friends i present to u the legendary DooMKernel !

i dont have the device with me so you guys will have to do testing and report back...



features will be same as DooMKernel for Xperia T

PLEASE READ THE ABOVE THREAD FOR DETAILS OF FEATURES AND HOW TO USE THEM!



use this kernel thread only for reporting bugs... please do not flood this development thread with non-development related questions...





[ disclaimer ]

OVERCLOCKING CAN BE DANGEROUS! U RISK THE HARDWARE GETTING DAMAGED!
PROCEED WITH CAUTION! U HAVE BEEN WARNED!


I AM NOT TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE IF U DAMAGE UR PHONE / SPILL UR COFFEE / MISS UR ALARMS / ANY OTHER CALAMITY/MISHAP


DO NOT CROSS FLASH! THIS IS MENT ONLY FOR Xperia TX (LT29i)

[ how to install my kernel ]

  1. download the kernel.elf

FOR OVERCLOCKING
  1. start SetCPU/NoFrills CPU Control app on ur phone (or any other app which supports overclocking) (u may get a popup asking for SuperUser permissions, click ok/yes/allow)
  2. now slowly increase the MAX slider to the right (one notch at a time) to increase the maximum frequency limit

  4. SLOWLY increase the frequency one notch at a time and do stability/testing for few hours

  1. before u report any battery drain issues please read this:
    [GUIDE] HOW-TO Properly Evaluate Battery Life and Provide Useful Reports

  2. faux123 has posted very nice info regarding most features



[ my kernel sources ]

Just a statement regarding kernel source: The Kernel Source is released for all at GITHUB repo given below. BUT Free software does NOT mean no work or time was spent working on it. A lot of my free time has gone into patching/testing this kernel/features integrated in this kernel. If you use my modified kernel source in parts or in its entirety, I kindly ask you mention its origins and to send me a github pull request or PM whenever you find bugs or think you can help improve my kernel hack further. This way the entire community will truly benefit from the spirit of open source.

Thank you !

are you serious?

Would love to see volume wake on your kernel :)

c'mon guys,

let the devs, sort this out before you start spaming this thread....its a work in prgress and its blind testing because doomlord does not have a TX

sit back, relax, watch the progress, and when it gets sorted, then ask in the q&a section for featues..

:)

I will check out these logs when I am free...

I saw from some posts here that there are multiple variants of screen/touch screen firmware? Can someone summarize the situation in short?

LT29i has three kinds of Screen we can call them A,B,C , so there are three touch firmwares
Due to CM10/CM10.1 of Freexperia, if Screen A and C are correct, Screen B will be upsidedown. It
But I don't know why it will not happen to stock kernel

Touch firmware is flashed from hwconfig.sh to the device if an error is detected on stock, maybe something like that could be implemented if you have the fw files.

Volunteers with rooted devices could share them to a private link
