great for fix battery bug
I have problem, when I power off and remove battery, my battery stat back to 100% again
how to fix this ?
Try the above provided script. If the bug still persists try flashing other kernel and reboot. Reflash this kernel back later.

P.S. I use Sirkay's xKernel for reflashing purpose bcs Lupus needs some changes to get wifi working back.

There is still no permanent fix for this bug yet. Just some temporary solutions.

If you use backup batteries and replaces time to time, I suggest you to use previous version of this kernel or other kernels such as lupus or xKernel.

I now use the kernel lupus, but why when booting fair amount of time? unlike the kernel CTCaer or Xkernel

Long time no see.
Too busy with work and no time for anything but to relax and drink a beer.
So here are some quick answers:




Normally you need an app to mount the new device. The mounting is implemented in vold (ROM) so I can't do anything to this.
There are countless apps on play store. StickMount is the one I now use.



It's because CWM needs a onetime small initialisation of /cache, where it checks if it should run.



After a friend's successful Xperia S stock to CM11 operation success, it was working very fast and nice because of the dalvik, ram and all optimizations.
So I went this path today, and flashed mike's CM11 with nAa kernel.
I forgot to titaniumbackup some apps and export contacts so I had to switch back.

And it happened to me for the 1st time.
So what procs it? Flashing a non-stock based kernel.
And at last info about it (I was asking every time for logs but no one post anything related all this time)

Code:
bq27520 0-0055: Failed unseal when checking IT Enable. rc=-5
bq27520 0-0055: IT Enable check failed. rc=-5
Normally it should be
Code:
bq27520 0-0055: IT Enable confirmed to be set.
So the driver has a function that unseals the device for initialization.
And a command or a state fails.
Investigating further but don't expect a fix (seems like TI problem).


EDIT------------------------

Ok the fix is easy and intended ONLY to those that can't fix it by flashing another kernel and then CTCaer again.

  • With adb enabled connect the phone to a pc.
  • Open cmd and write "adb shell"
  • Enter su
  • enter cd /sys/class/power_supply/bq27520
  • enter echo 0 > fg_lock
  • enter echo "start" > fg_cmd
  • wait 10 seconds
  • enter echo "end" > fg_cmd
  • wait 10 seconds
  • enter echo 1 > fg_lock
Reboot phone


Sir did this solution will fix this same problem? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1831489 i have my girlfriend's xperia ray with the same problem mentioned, should this will help to solve the problem?

HELP!

I installed the uv kernel today and was trying to go to recovery but I can't. Pressing the power button repeatedly does nothing while the volume keys take me to a splash screen saying CTCaer and TWRP and stops there. Any help?
Also I am coming from Kitkat.
I also tried to flash another kernel but my phone has a problem by which I can't boot to Fasboot by using keys. Also I can't boot to Flashmode.

This kernel is for ICS only.
Try to reflash your phone with flashtool because many things differs between KK and ICS.

If you are coming back to ICS from Kitkat, flash the Kitkat kernel, go recovery, mounts & storage > format /system > format /data, format /cache. Then flash the CTCaer kernel, then install your favourite ICS ROM.

Else, flash the Stock ROM ftf using Flashtool. I hope you should be able to enter Flashmode even when you are not in proper kernel.

Cannot go to flashmode or fastboot by using keys.
I have been going to fastboot by adb all this time because using the keys doesn't work.

Anyway, if you can fastboot, try what I suggested.
Any fastboot JIG?
Back on the Galaxy S we would make a JIG by cutting a USB cable which would directly send the phone to Download mode.
If you know something like that about ST18i, please tell me.
