Hi sirkay,

Can you help me change the boot logo of your kernel v9.587-D to stock Sony logo?


Thanks

Hi Sirkay,

I recently unlocked my bootloader (with wotanserver.com - test point method) and have since been trying out new kernels. Unfortunately, I've had some problems with your Advanced Stock .587 Kernel and xKernel v9.587-D when I try to flash them. I followed your flashing with flashtool instructions at the top of the thread but my phone appears to boot up as normal, (the kernel's preinstalled CWM recovery works too) but after the initial boot logo & brightening screen that indicates CWM is working - the screen then just goes black with white LED on (with screen backlight v. slightly on) and nothing else happens, i.e. the phone is well and truly stuck. The end result is that I have to flash back to the kernel I was previously using.

Am I overlooking something very obvious here? Would be very glad to hear your opinion, this is driving me nuts! :)

Device: ST18i (unlocked bootloader)
ROM version: Iced Bean 2.1 [.587] - Can be used with any kernel (according to the author)
Baseband version: .77

Hey guys, I made an init.d script for undervolting since I was tired of apps that didn't apply the values I set. It's made for v9.587-D but it should work for others as well as long as the frequency tables are the same and it has vdd.
Place the file inside the zip folder into /system/etc/init.d/ and give it full permissions (rwxrwxrwx).
Voltages are based off the values from here.

Kernel and ROM have to be compatible!!!!

Check this before you update, which is correct kernel for you.

Can't mount my USB drive!

Hello Sirkay!

I tried Via terminal emulator : mount/dev/block/sda1/storege
It says not found

Again I tried with USB OTG Helper app! It shows mounted but couldn't see any file in mounted folder!
I've attached OTG helper Debug file.

Can anyone help about it?

    ## xKERNEL##
    First Thing First: How To Install Custom Kernel
    1) You need to UNLOCK BOOTLOADER using one of these method. I'm NOT responsible of what you've decide. Please follow instruction carefully.
    -> S1tool
    -> Sony Mobile - Unlock Bootloader
    2) Get this awesome tool called Flashtool and install. Dont forget to install usb drivers from "Drivers" folder too.
    3) I assume you have download one of my kernel. Get into Fastboot mode. How? Do i have to repeat how? Press "Volume Up" while connecting your USB cable. you'll see Blue led.
    4) Click "Flash" button on Flashtool, then select Fastboot Mode.
    5) Choose "Select Kernel to Flash" and find your saved kernel. I'm not gonna find it for you.
    6) Once completed, reboot device into system

    THESE IS FINAL, NO LONGER MAINTAINED
    HTML:
    Those version below was a final version xKernel for Xperia Ray. I might on a new
    device next week due someone already booked my ray. Ive planned to give the
    last version using 4.1.B.0.587 but unfortunately source published by Sony was
    corrupted. Sorry guys, i cant afford to keep my ray. This is it.
    Thank you for using my kernel.
