[KERNEL][XPERIA U] EvoKernel [WiP][DEV]

[KeiranFTW]

This is mainly a placeholder as I haven't yet started development, but I am going to make a custom kernel for the Xperia U.
I have plenty of experience creating custom kernels, to list a few:
Darkforest Kernel GB - Xperia Play
Darkforest Kernel ICS - Play
KeiCS Kernel ICS CM9 AOKP MIUIv4 AOSP KERNEL - Play
DarkMIUI Kernel - MIUI GB Kernel
Wildfire ICS Kernel - HTC Wildfire

And a few ROMs too.

I only work with one device, so you will have my full development attention when I get the device in three or four month.

When Sony kernel sources are released, I will start development,

nice! if i may ask for one more thing, and this one would probably be tough, but would we be able to change the partition sizes of the internal memory? 2gb for system and 2gb for apps seems like waaay to much 1gb or even 500mb for system and 1gb for app data would be more than enough....would we be able to change it from kernel?

This will be more of a side project, I'm now working on CM, and will also contribute to CM on this device

would changing the partition sizes be possible? also, when using usb otg, if the device sucks up too much power when plugged in, an error pops up saying device consumes too much power, and it cannot be used. would you be able to remove the limitation?

Well, at least a new release date is rumored for ICS:

I hope there is development about rooting without unlocking bootloader
But I'll wait till your kernel released, I'll unlock my xu no matter if the warranty will be void.

Don't worry, we will. Nickholtus has a P and I might be able to get a Sola.
