Optimal kernel left more to be desired 2 things!

Look at the kernel and exellent, really enjoyed! I missed most of the battery wipe option and I try to connect my phone to the computer via cwm but i can not. what can I do? :crying:

Keep your work! :victory:

I have a Custom ROM ics 587. My phone is a Xperia mini pro :good:

cm team purposedly removed the option to wipe battery stats from cwm recovery due to one of google's android dev stating its doesns't do anything to improve battery life, aka its useless.

anyway i've gotten a brand new nokia x for dirt cheap price, far cheaper than retail price :D
originally planning to get asus zenfone 4 but stupid asus keep delaying its distribution in my country.
so with this, this kernel officially wont get updates anymore from me. anyone still uses this kernel and got problem or question can directly pm me as i wont be monitoring this thread anymore. good luck with your android journey for all of u :highfive:

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 here to be humble enough to answer PMs sent by common mortals like me ;)

I wish you to thank you for all you did and wish you luck in your future coding ventures.

Ka.

I would like to use this kernel with the Real ICS Lite r4 rom.
Just one question, does this kernel support "two way recording"? :confused:

OTG not work

Hello.
Sorry for bad English.
For SK17i had earlier .431 ICS 4.0.4 Kernel extendet and worked OTG. Telephone seen pendrive and a printer. I installed CM10 and minipro_mesa_hybrid_v4.8.img kernel that supports OTG. Sorry did not see or pendrive or a printer.I installed the USB OTG module Uploader HELPER and what CM10 but it's possible. What can I do to see the USB drive and printer? It is very necessary to me.

tried mesa 4.8 hybrid for 2days, performance are awesome 30%+\- , but device restarting often , and alot of battery drain while i sleeping from 100 to 20 in 8 hrs
(wifi\data\Bluetooth\etc was off) every 1hr = 10% average (Android OS suspend process was @80) stock kernel 3% average

using wt19i (LiveWithWalkman)

Edit:i tried for another 2 days CWM 9.1.0 ROM some apps are even faster, battery drain is alot better 1 -3% per hr instead of 7-10% (img attached)
but 720P video dosnt work

    First of all,
    Code: 
    /*
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
 * do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM/kernel
 * before flashing it! 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.
 */

    Ok then, now that u've read the disclaimer we can continue with me and this kernel.
    Frankly i'm no dev, just know a little bit of linux thus i know howto compile kernel, and i like tinkering with kernel to include what i like.
    by that i'm learning as i go, so go easy on me please :p

    About the kernel name, MESA stands for Man-Eating Seals of Antiquity, codename for kernel 2.6.32.
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Linux_kernel_names
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Roughly features of this kernel include:
    - base on Sony's official 4.1.B.0.587 kernel source, so i build this from ground up. patched to upstream 2.6.32.60. ics kernel should work with stock/custom rom based on stock ics 4.1.B.0.431 or 4.1.B.0.587, and jb kernel should work with source based jb rom eg cm10, aokp and pa. personally i've tested this with expeacer's exmiuiv4, lasan's miui, stock ics, fxp's cm10 and aokp jb.
    - updated to upstream linux 2.6.32.61.
    - hybrid kernel, support stock/stock based, cm9/cm9 based, cm10/cm10 based rom.
    - patched with Con Kolivas's patchset that includes bfs task scheduler v0.404, so this is a bfs kernel. stock kernel and all of custom kernel here so far uses cfs cpu scheduler. read about bfs cpu scheduler here.
    - oc upto 1.8ghz and using 100mhz steps. default boot only use 1ghz.
    - uv sysfs interface to modify voltage. i also decrease voltage abit. for anyone who wish to use stock voltage, heres stock voltage table
    - cpu governors includes default stock ondemand, interactive, powersave, perfomance and userspace, i've added ondemandx, intellidemand, smartassV2, smoothass, interactivex, brazilianwax, scary, lulzactive, lagfree, smartass, minmax and savagedzen. default booting governor is interactive, its been updated/backported from kernel 3.x. read about cpu governors here.
    - disk io scheduler includes deadline, sio, cfq, noop, anticipatory, zen, bfq and vr. default booting disk io scheduler is sio. read about io schedulers here.
    - dual recovery, cwm and twrp. access cwm by pressing volume down button and twrp by pressing power button. also can swap those keycode by adding "swap.recovery.keycode=true" to build.prop. phone will vibrate slightly before entering both recovery as indicator. also included autoroot which wont give problem with miui rom, init.d startup script and unsecure ramdisk for adb root access. v4.7 got twrp 2.4.3.0 and cwm 6.0.3.9.
    - swap and zram support.
    - ext2/3/4 support.
    - usb otg support.
    - ntfs read/write with fuse module built in.
    - samba support with cifs module built in.
    - wifi modules integrated into kernel, then added into ramdisk. it will be insmod directly from ramdisk and existing wifi modules in rom wont be touched.

    for full itsy bitsy changes read the changelog.txt in download folder.
    and to comply and abide with gpl, source diff also included in the download folder.

    Click to collapse

    Howto install:
    1- be sure u already unlocked bootloader.
    2- download correct kernel for your rom and phone and make sure md5 checksum matches. jellybean rom should use the kernel with "jb" in filename. or just use the new hybrid which support cm9/cm9 based, cm10/cm10 based rom and cm10.1/cm10.1 based rom.
    3- if kernel downloaded in *.7z format u need to unpack it using winrar or 7zip.
    4- flash the kernel via fastboot.
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Troubleshoot:
    - ini.d script not working? read this
    - stuck at booting after flashing kernel? wait a little bit longer. kernel needs to run some script when booting.
    - still stuck at booting? wipe cache and dalvik cache via recovery.
    Click to expand...
    Click to collapse

    Reporting bugs:
    1- if u got freeze problem, paste logcat to pastebin and give me the link.
    2- if u got sudden reboot, after the sudden reboot, paste content of /proc/last_kmesg to pastebin and give me the link.
    3- also tell me which phone u use, with which rom and which kernel.

    what is that logcat and dmesg thingy u kept talking about? google for it.
    how to get it? use this

    - fxp team for some of their patch i use, and for the awesome cm10.

    hi, i've uploaded another naa's 3.4 based kernel for lww.

    difference with current naa's 03 kernel:
    1- patched to 3.4.46, current latest 3.4 branch from upstream linux. i patched myself from naa's 3.4.0 last week.
    2- wifi compat-driver is from "old" naa's 3.4.0 which i think backported from kernel 3.8 or 3.9. current naa 03 kernel, he downgraded to compat-wireless from linux 3.2 due to some people said got connection error. that didn't happen to me so i haven't downgraded it.
    3- interactive governor in current naa 03 kernel i think is abit buggy, after waking from deep sleep it stay at lowest frequency thus making phone unuseable and laggy. i'm using interactive governor from nexus 4 air kernel git which doesn't stuck at lowest freq when waking, and made it as default booting governor.
    4- lowmemorykiller driver from dorimanx's s2 kernel git
    5- some networking stuff eg disabled all packet scheduling algorithm except sfb, and using veno as default tcp congestion avoidance algorithm.
    6- using slub memory allocator instead of default slab.
    7- enable and use tiny preempt rcu instead or tiny rcu.
    8- enable sched autogroup.
    9- oc upto 1.8ghz with 100mhz steps.
    10- some bluetooth and fmradio stuff from mike's cm10.1 kernel git
    11- compiled using codesourcery g++ lite 2011.03-42 crosscompiler which is gcc 4.5.2.
    12. probably some other minor stuff i forgot...

    credits goes to those people, i just simply compile this. nothing more than that.

    should boot with latest pacman nightly 20130522 since its already using new liblights. not sure if this will boot with mike's cm10.1 20130515.
    sourcepatch also uploaded, diff'ed against vanilla linux kernel 3.4.0 from kernel.org archive. with correct defconfig its also buildable for all xperia 2011 too. as usual, no warranty whatsoever were given with this, u flash this with your own free will.

    Also please dont report any bugs u found in any rom thread that u use with this kernel.

    i've compiled and uploaded v4.6 for stock rom/stock based custom rom including miui, for all four devices.
    thanks to @job.bousix who confirmed that previous v4.3 doesn't have any problem with usb mass storage fc after using usb tethering, so i'm using v4.3 as based this time. removed all cm kgsl code that caused graphic glitch from it and compiled using linaro 4.7.4 2013.10.

    i've compiled new naa's 3.4 based kernel for all four devices, for cm10 roms only.
    changelog is in download folder. sourcepatch also uploaded.
    other kernel than for lww are untested since i only own lww but it should boot since all xperia 2011 shared the same source.
    but if it doesn't and made your phone explode and kill your cat in the process than standard disclaimer applies, no warranty whatsoever were given with it.
    recommended to use default interactive and fiops.

    anyway, if anyone chose to use this kernel instead of default provided kernel in rom zip then never ever nagging and/or whining in rom thread about any bug as the bug might came from this kernel. i'll *****slap anyone who does.

    updated to v4.1 and uploaded for all four devices.

    fixed sudden app close and graphic glitch.
    now default booting uses smartassV2 cpu governor with 100mhz frequency steps.
