Definitely a decent kernel. But when i tried it on EOS 3 it bootlooped. Is it because it is intended for EOS 4 or because of i have to wipe cache after flashing?

i was using trickster mod, which works great (and can set s2w / zram / gov / io sch). but to consolidate apps, i just use rom toolbox pro. since s2w and zram are enabled by default, i don't need to be able to manipulate those settings

Nope, same as before, 4G icon is grayed-out, never shows it trying to connect. Once I enable airplane mode and then disable it, the 4G signal icon never appears again.

Running Baked v7.

Are there any logs I can provide to help troubleshooting?
If you could, please reboot and then type (in terminal emulator):

dmesg > dmesg.txt

and send me dmesg.txt

I was wondering whether it would work on the older ROMs. Thought maybe it would. Has anyone else tried it?

Had to revert back to the original kernel on My Android - everytime I try to clean the screen I end up rebooting the device using power+ vol up. I think all of the edge to edge wiping is locking up the device. An idea for future development would be an option added to Android settings to check or uncheck the sweep2 wake feature.

Other than this, good work and looking forward to the next iterations of keeping the Xoom alive.

I tried it once again on EOS 3 and this time with wiping but still bootlooping. Too bad. I love the features though.
I didnt know that people would want to upgrade to 4.2.2. The lag is out of comfort zone. Does this kernel reduce the lag significantly?

Are these any good?

did reset with original baked kernel
dmesg
boot into recovery
flashed elemx0.5
dmesg

I'm off tomorrow (Monday) so I can be available for testing. I idle on IRC as well, just let me know.

Thanks!!!
I'm at work today, but I'll have a look at these this week.

Good to know, I will have to put some limits on the sweep2wake function to ensure that doesn't happen.


For now, you can disable sweep2wake by setting /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake to 0

To disable:
echo 0 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake

To enable:
echo 1 > /sys/android_touch/sweep2wake

This happens in real time, no reboots or anything necessary.

You can also navigate to that file using ES File Explorer (or something like it) and editing that way (less typing;))

I've only tested this on EOS 4 and My Android, though others have confirmed it works on Baked 7.

Are there many people still using EOS 3? There doesn't seem to be much activity here (only 123 downloads of version 0.5) Someday when I have the time, perhaps I will release versions for EOS3 and CM10.1

flar can feel free to correct me, but i'm pretty sure you can't use a kernel built for 4.2.x on a 4.1.x rom.

I think sweep2wake consumes battery in deep standby so is there any possibility to add an option for using volume keys to wake up the device?

Or is this rom related?

Thanks for you quick reply :)

Using the Xoom (on the couch and on my knees ;)) with applied genuine portfolio case it isn't that easy to reach the powerbutton than the volume keys.

I seems that I have to give sweep2wake a try.
