Is it still necessary to do a full wipe to try this kernel on Android Pie? I'm thinking the full wipe might be necessary for the drm fix and not for the kernel to work. I'm really curious about EAS, but I'm going on a three week trip in two days and prefer not to wipe my phone before I fly.

Hi guys,

I've flashed the last firmware (47.2.A.8.24 pie) with newflasher hoping to fix a fingerprint problem...
But always same issue, so I've disassmled the Phone and I've checked for connectors, and now it seems to be luckly fixed about that.
But since I've flashed the new firmware, I'm having other software issues... Now I tell what I've done, flashed firmware, flashed last twrp, flashed this kernel and last magisk. It seems work, But later it Will stops and goes in bootloop... And I've to do everyhing again. Do you know why? Can you help me? What wrong I made?

Thanks

Ethernet

Hi @janjan and thanks for your work.
Does your patch include support for:
*ethernet (ie. USB-C OTG ethernet adapter) and/or
*double tap to wake ?

If not how can it be added ? I'll gladly contribute.

 

[LazerL0rd]

@janjan AFAIK your source is supposed to be held here https://github.com/Nexusma/msm-4.4.

However this isn't the source for your kernels that you build. The commandline variables in your released kernels don't match up to the source. Could you please update the source to what you build on and uphold the GPL? If you are busy and cannot do it for the time being, please say. But if otherwise, I myself would love to see what commits you've got and what stuff I can learn from your kernel as your OP suggests there's a lot there (which most isn't in the source).

Maybe I should compile a new kernel with latest source.

Anything ??
I know this is possible (AndroPlus kernel) but don't have the time to do it myself.
Could anybody implement this ? I'll gladly pay as stated in my first reply.
If *ethernet (ie. USB-C OTG ethernet adapter) can't be added, at least
*double tap to wake

THANKS TO hbenavid FOR THESE STEPS

Thank you works perfectly. It was a hard work.
It was a detour. Had a problem with the point 14. There was always the message Error cannt load.
I then had xperifix to load twrp. Please no questions about how to do that!
However, after xperifix (also problems) I then had twrp (3.3.1 - maple) on it and manually downloaded Magsik 13.2 and flashed via trwp. This time it worked completely. Then download the Masik Manager and rootchecker .Root checker - checked and device is rooted.
Thanks for the instructions. but still do not understand why cmd comand fastboot devices goes (device is detected) and point 14 not. (fastboot flash recovery twrp3.2.1) or 3.3.1 does not load.
It's the same with Windows shell.
Driver I had taken original Android Adb.
Bootloader was already unlocked.

Device Sony xzp G8141 (Germany) Sim Lock Free

Thank you . Anyway, a question on the topic here. Item 14 Why did not he want to load it (flashing)?

Can I install it with magisk ? I have a g8141 with android 9 ( 47.2.A.8.24 ) and I want to have a root with magisk + DRM fix.
