[sharonliu]

hi, can you add double tap 2 wake with no wakelock problem ? Thank you... your kernel seems good

another user has created a kernel with dt2w function with no problem for battery.. without wakelock bug[/QUOTE]
I tried to apply code-red's dt2w patch my 5.1.1 kernel, but it didn't work.

@sharonliu

did u add a logo to this kernel? it's better to have a custom logo than SONY

 

[lavenbut]

I have question. How can i turn off vdd_ristriction in thermal

 

[Achu Gowda]

@sharonliu can u add faux sound to your kernel ..??wcd9320 seems quite low as compared to faux sound...

 

[rebiiejr]

light notifications is working fine. it's going slowly on and slowly off(base on AndroPlusKernel source codes).
I choose MultiRom TWRP 2.8.4 because it's working with MultiRom. If other developer release MultiRom TWRP 2.8.7,
i will update asap.

in v.13 light notification back to normal ? i want like in v.12 hehe (sorry my bad english)

Can the Kernel be flashed with Fastboot instead of flashing the zip?

You can always flash the kernel through fastboot.

@sharonliu +1 for adding custom bootimage, I can help with that if you'd have any issues, shoot me a pm!
I'd also appreciate if you'd multirom TWRP changes.
Oh, F2FS support would also be bonkers.

while at TWRP, please don't forget adding elf ramdisk extract https://twrp.me/devices/sonyxperiaz2.html you can find some info about it in z2 twrp notes

BTW. Your kernel is awesome, the only one for .368 and I think one of the best for Z1 overall, those things above will make it perfect for me.

@sharonliu

I have already had a custom logo with traditional chinese twrp in my country.
Maybe i will add a custom logo in the next version.

I have question. How can i turn off vdd_ristriction in thermal

Force turn on VDD restrictions in thermal by default. Disable VDD restrictions
may cause instability. If valtage is too low, cpu die. we have strong control
for cpu freq.

@sharonliu can u add faux sound to your kernel ..??wcd9320 seems quite low as compared to faux sound...

No. Faux's Sound Control didn't fully work and seems to be a buggy after
updating to Android Lollipop. I changed Sound Control to cocafe's taiko control
v3, it fully work now. Headset analog/digital gain,Speaker digital gain are
works fine for z1/z1 compact.

in v.13 light notification back to normal ? i want like in v.12 hehe (sorry my bad english)

I’ll think it over in the next version.

Thank you for recognizing my work. I choose MultiRom TWRP 2.8.4 and it's working with MultiRom in 5.0.2.
v13 with MultiRom TWRP 2.8.4 as primary rom is fine but when reboot into Second ROM, doesn't boot, what
should I do? It seems like the Multirom support is dropped from the initial porter, it's on a outdated
version. Maybe you and other developer can continue this project.

Hi,

is there any reason why not to build the kernel with UBERTC 5.2 toolchain? Is it causing a bootloop? because I think there are some improvements. ( https://bitbucket.org/UBERTC/arm-eabi-5.2 )

Anyway thank you for your work, I really appreciate it.

it didn't boot with GCC 5.2

You're very welcome. Thanks for adding F2FS! Hopefully it'll work with stock rom without changing much.
You indeed chose the latest TWRP, but it's missing MultiROM button under advanced so I don't really know how did you managed to install Second rom. I've tried installing MultiROM twrp with fastboot flash recovery twrp.img but it still remains the one you include with your kernel for whatever reason and that's why I'm nagging you to include it in your kernel, since it's not that much to add MultiROM twrp changes to your TWRP build. I'd try to get it up and running but since I can't even flash second rom, not to mention that Multirom zip fails to flash because your kernel doesn't include boot image extraction so even if I have a second rom I can't really boot it as I'm not even getting to multirom screen.

Thank you for what you do!

I didn't push here v13 with MultiRom TWRP 2.8.4. I tried to modify from venkat kamesh's 5.1 ramdisk,
but when reboot into Second ROM, cause of the bootloop. RockZ1L v4.0 Kernel has the same issue reboot into
Second ROM, cause of the bootloop..
