features are same as my Play GSM kernel
[ NOTICE ]
since i have changed the kernel version string stock wifi modules will no longer work on my kernel...
if u try to enable them on new kernel u will get "ERROR" while starting WIFI...
i will be providing wifi modules for my kernel which HAVE TO BE FLASHED VIA RECOVERY for wifi/bt to work correctly
stock wifi modules will also be provided which again will have to be flashed via recovery if u want to return to stock kernel OR if u revert to older or lower kernels
remember i have already told this to u guys... if i see some users reporting that wifi is giving error because u did not follow my instructions ur post WILL BE IGNORED....

hey guys here i am attaching a template update.zip which has been tested to work on the recovery provided here... u can add ur stuff to that file and edit the updater-script so that the u can flash ur files via this recovery...
basically it contains the correct combination of update-binary & mounting syntax...
this file is NOT required for normal/general users

cheers!
reserved for later
sure to more than one is interested, at least not because I use ami gsm, a health
Can't wait to see a CM7 compatible version of the CDMA kernel. Keep up the awesome work!
Sent from my R800x
I will definitely test this when I get home from work tonight.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
well i flashed it and its been on the kernel load screen for like 5 minutes now doubting its going to boot ill let it sit for 10 minutes and post an update
and before anyone asks i have an r800x on 2.3.3 from OTA update so that means i have the right fw right?
*update* got sick of looking at the really cool grim reaper android and flashed the 1.6ghz version saddly it appears this may not boot either
*update 2* no luck with the 1.6 ghz version either flashed back to v3 of your gsm kernel where i have everything but wifi
I also get stuck at the splash screen with the GrimDroid. The recovery is working and I really like the new red recovery text. I just pulled the battery and powered back on and still stuck at GrimDroid. I tried the 1.6GHz one on verizon 2.3.3 firmware. I don't think it would make a difference for me to flash the 3.0.1.A.0.145 firmware because I am not even getting to the boot animation.
EDIT: BTW, here is the verizon stock wifi module from 2.3.3 3.0.1.E.0.88 firmware. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/35097081/bcm4329.ko

Boots and as far as i can tell everything works perfectly thank you soo much for this doom finally have wifi and a camera. only complaints not using grimdroid splash screen and soo many I/O schedulers and governors idk what one to choose anymore lol.
Curious about this. About to try it on 007s modified UK rom.
Also, yeah. What is the best combination for i/o and governor. Just flashed it, camera and wifi seem to work ok, and chose noop i/o, and lagfee governor to test first.
This is also working with the stock verizon 2.3.3 firmware. Overclocking is working confirmed with CPU Spy. Wifi and camera are working.
EDIT: Finally a reason for R800x users to get their bootloaders unlocked.
great
now i will make a proper "final" version with newest recovery and new logo
hold on for few minutes
v01-FINAL
this version booted up on my R800i so i think it will (hopefully) work on R800x
i am using older ramdisk from my .468 FW GSM kernel with all new stuff (new recovery, new logo, etc )
Well after several hours of using this everything has been fine except I had one random shut down, running stock frequencies, conservative governor and noop i/p scheduler. Same settings I used with the v3 kernel no issues.
Sent from my R800x using XDA App
thank you very much! it works really well! are you going to be mantaining this along side the gsm kernel? i really hope so. I'm loving the 2ghz kernel! I went and bought the pay version of xcharge reboot to show my support.
i have one question though, is there a way to boot into recovery while the kernel is loading like you can in cm7's kernel? when the free xperia logo is showing if you just mash all the keys randomly it'll bring up their cwm instead of the rom. is it possible with your kernel?
i've tried it for about 45 minutes now with no problems. It's working flawlessly. i've done some stress testing, checked out the new cpu governors and it's all good so far. I'll respond back if i come across any problems though.
thanks for all your hard work and keep it up! i really appreciate it.

buddy i could enter recovery at the first go...
u just need to watch the LED notification (at power button) as soon as it turns BLUE keep pressing BACK button
BTW i tested only on R800i
i can't get into the recovery menu either. I've tried holding down the back button as soon as it turns blue, i've tried pressing it really fast as soon as it turns blue, i've tried pressing it in slower intervals as soon as it turns blue and i've tried pressing it repeatedly from the time i hit the power button, and nothing seems to put it into the recovery menu.

OMG, *another* rooting kernel
Yes , wanted to try to dive into this, and so here is my selfbuilt kernel.
The kernel is built from the original Samy sources, not just a modded initramfs and repacked, actually built from scratch.

Features
Root
Kernel comes "instant rooted", after flashing this kernel your system is completely rooted (su, busybox and the Superuser app).
Nothing more needs to be done, totally newb friendly
MULTIPLE Recoveries!
By default this kernel will run ClockworkMod 5.0.2.3 when booting into recovery.
You can, however, set an option to boot two other recoveries:
Create a file "opt.recovery.cwm4" in /sdcard to get ClockWorkMod Recovery 4.0.1.4 when booting to recovery.
Create a file "opt.recovery.stock" in /sdcard to get original stock (e3) recovery when booting to recovery.
Content of the files doesn't matter, a 0-byte size is good enough already, it just needs to exist and have the above stated names.
ADB with root priv's in recovery mode
When booted into recovery mode you have ADB available to connect to from your PC.
ADB also runns with full root priv's in recovery mode for all your haxx'n'tinker needs (in normally booted OS mode ADB still runns "secure" with only user priv's, use su to get root there)
Custom boot scripts
There is some bootscripts you can put your own commands in for being executed during boot.
The scripts are /system/bootrc.sh and /data/bootrc.sh.
Additional modules natively supported and loaded on boot
The original plan was to integrate these into the kernel, but due to hitting size limits of the zImage I decided to have them loaded from external directories.
Currently supported modules: (these modules are compiled together with the kernel and are included in the download!)
- slow-work.ko (not needed on Android 2.3.4 FWs, like XXKG2, e.t.c.)
- cifs.ko
If these modules are present in either /system/lib/modules or /data/lib/modules they will be automatically loaded at boot and are available to use (for example in case of CIFS, just get CifsManager from the marketplace and start mounting your shares)
Custom Bootanimation and Bootsound
This kernel also supports using a custom bootanim (bootanimation.zip) and bootsound (PowerOn.wav).
To install, simply create a folder "import" on in your /sdcard and drop your files into it, i.e.:
/sdcard/import/bootanimation.zip -> for bootanimation
/sdcard/import/PowerOn.wav -> for bootsound
If either one of those is present upon the next boot they will automatically be installed to the correct path and be available.
Custom Boot-LOGO !
This let's you change the logo shown BEFORE the bootanimation (usually the "Samsung Galaxy SII" splash screen).
Similar to the bootanim and -sound, copy the desired logo.jpg (480x800, max. 100k) to:
/sdcard/import/logo.jpg
Upon the next boot the new bootlogo will be installed!
Please read the additional note about installing a new bootlogo bellow!
BLN support
This kernel has BLN (=BackLight Notification) support!
Just install the BLN Pro App from the market (to actually use/get the notification lights you need the paid version, the free version only lets you test if BLN works propperly) and off your blinkieness goes
Touchscreen Sensitivity Fix
vitalij's touchscreen fix to make the touch more responsive again when performing movements on the screen.
init.d support
If you got a lot of shell scripts you want to have executed during boot, just drop them in
- /system/etc/init.d
or
- /data/etc/init.d
Everything put into those directories will be executed during boot
Might add more features as I go and figure out how they work
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Note about installing custom Boot-LOGO:
When you reboot to have the new logo installed you will at first still see the old logo.
When the system comes up it will (esp. at the first time) stay in the bootanimation for quite some time -. this is normal and to be expected!
The phone will eventually reboot again (also normal!) and you should already see your new bootlogo
/!\ The custom bootlogo ONLY works when the yellow triangle is NOT shown, in situations where the phone shows the yellow triangle screen, it will override the custom bootlogo.
I figured out how to apply a new bootlogo thanks to this thread and simply automated the process and made it a bit more simple to apply (IMO).
How to install
Download a build of my kernel that matches your FW/current kernel version und unpack the downloaded archive.
You will get a .tar file. Don't extract that, you need this .tar.
(go to Settings -> About this phone -> look at "Kernel Version", this will tell you what kernel build you need)
Make sure no Kies related processes are running in the background (start Taskmanager and kill'em all)
Launch Odin
Select the .tar file extracted previously as PDA
Power off your phone and restart it in Download Mode (hold "Vol-Down + Home + Power" to turn it one) and press Vol-Up to confirm and actually entering Download Mode.
Connect your phone to the PC via USB
When Odin recognized the phone, hit START
The phone should reboot shortly after and that's it, you're all set
I hope you like it
I might build it for other firmware versions as the one I have so far as well, but might take a while as I completely (re)build the kernel for every firmware version, i.e. (re)applying all mods to the original initramfs and then do a clean build (which takes ~45 minutes on my current setup).
It might not be completely neccessary to do that, but it's the most cleanest way IMO, and I like it clean
Companion Tool
A little tool to aid with some tasks after rooting, makes getting rid of the yellow triangle a bit more easy (see bellow).
This tool can also backup and restore the EFS partition for you, no need to deal with terminal commands anymore
Since v1.20 of kTool it also has a function to check/verify the EFS backup, if it's OK and all.
The kernel includes this tool and it will be automatically installed on your system, there is no need to download and install it seperately, I will still provide it as seperate download though for those interested in using the tool but not using the kernel.

Removing the yellow triangle /!\
Getting rid of the yellow triangle in a few simple steps:
Flash this (or any other) custom kernel via Odin
Once your system is rooted run the Companion Tool ("HC-kTool")
Tap "Dump current kernel"
Tap "Reboot to Downloadmode"
When back in downloadmode, start Odin, connect the phone and flash any stock Samsung kernel (this will remove the yellow triangle as the phone is now running on an official kernel again)
when the phone rebooted after the Odin flash start up the Companion Tool again
Tap "Flash kernel from /sdcard/zImage"
Tap "Reboot"
That's it.
You are now running the custom kernel (again) but without having the yellow triangle on boot - also the custom bootlogo now works again (it doesn't when the triangle is shown).
Easy?

kTool companion tool v1.24 : [ kTool XDA thread (with market link for download) ]
The kernels are compiled pretty universal, so the KE7 one should work on most 2.3.3 based FWs and the KG2 one on most 2.3.4 ones.
Though, if there's demand/requests for a FW version specific build, I can make one

LOL, nothing else needs to be said.
I also finally figured out how to enable custom boot animation (du'h, Samy uses a different path than default Android for the anim.zip in their bootanimation executable....) and I found a way to replace the boot splash logo, the one before the animation (even though this only works when no yellow triangle is shown).
Just have to find a neat and not too messy way to implement my idea, will put both things into the next build then
UPDATED to v1.10
Now supports custom bootanim, bootsound and bootlogo!
Also features a totally easy way to apply/install them

Looks like the same issue as with the CIFS modules.
The CIFS modules needed to be recompiled for new(er) kernels (they didn't run on stock 2.3.4 as well).

You mean the kernel source code?
That's the untouched Samsung source so far, it's been posted lot's of times.
Everything has been done in the initramfs, and everyone wanting to peek at that can extract it with one of the many zImage extracters also posted around here
I am also close to finishing this little tool, just some polishing and hopefully ready to throw it into the wild by tomorrow:
Should also help a bit with getting rid of the yellow triangle (reflashing the custom kernel after having flashed a stock one and such things).
I'll include it into the next kernel version, until then I'll just post it as seperate .apk

The CIFS modules are already included in the downloads, just copy them to /system/lib/modules or /data/lib/modules and they are loaded on boot and are ready to be used.
If you make this Kernel overclockable up to 1600 and undervolted with SetCPU and add the BLN support, would be the icing on the cake
I'm currently using your KG6 kernel with Criskelo 9 rom.
Good news: BLN will be in the next version! (I just tested it successfully with the free BLN controll app )
Just have to recompile every build, so might take a day until I have them all ready for upload (boss is expecting me to do some real work ), but consider it inbound
@HellcatDroid your kernel looking good. I especially like your kernel companion app with the efs backup/restore function. Can I make a humble request to include ZSKG2 firmware kernel (hong kong/taiwan, you can find here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278)? Thanks
This would not have been possible without the tools provided by aZuZu and the help provided by jerpelea!!!
THANK YOU GUYS!

[ How To ]
*FOLLOW THE STEPS PRECISELY ELSE U WILL GET STUCK*
download the ftf bundle & compressed recovery image from linnks below
extract the contents of the recovery image to a folder on desktop
u will get a folder with 4 files as shown below:
connect device to PC and mount sdcard
copy that extrated folder to /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/
so final path to folder & files should look like:
/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/cache.img
/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/data.img
/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/nandroid.md5
/sdcard/xrecovery/backup/prerooted_X10i_3.0.1.G.0.75_fixed_rec/system.img
once copying is finished unmount sdcard and disconnect cable
reboot into recovery and restore this backup
AFTER RESTORE IS DONE DO NOT REBOOT
directly remove battery and wait for few minutes (since we dont have power off in recovery this is crude way to do it)
now start flashtool and connect X10 in flash mode and flash the ftf bundle provided below
after flashing is complete just restart device and enjoy prerooted X10 SE 2.3.3 GB!!!

if u get adb push errors to /system then anantshri has a solution: check here

Just download the latest flashtool, connect your phone and press root , after that your phone will restart then ask root perms from flashtool again and install xrecovery through flashtool again.
Thats all good luck

Features of my custom touch edition recovery
base recovery sources are from koush/CyanogenMod/FreeXperia Team... i have added more features to it and my team mate, Napstar, has worked on adding the Touch capabilities...
[ features ]
remapped key layouts for specifically for Xperia PLAY
revamped layout for recovery menu (to improve navigation) [renamed few options and changed their order]
changed "wipe data/factory reset" option to just "factory reset", and detailed the partitions which will be wiped
added reboot options
reboot into system
reboot into recovery
reboot into fastboot mode
some modification in "Partition SDCard" section:
put up a confirmation to warn the user that this option will wipe sdcard
added ability to select filesystem when creating new layout
add confirmation to "backup" option in Nandroid menu... it used to keep getting pressed by mistake and start making backups immediately... now it will ask u before starting backup
removed tons of "NO"s from some menus...
[ how to enter recovery ]
when the device is booting the new bootlogo will be shown, keep watching the notification LED
when the LED turns BLUE keep pressing the BACK button
you will now enter my custom recovery
[ how to navigate in recovery ]
the recovery is touch edition so controls are on screen
if someone prefers to use hardware buttons the the mapping is as follows:
BACK button -- to go BACK in menu
HOME button -- to navigate UP in menu
MENU button -- to navigate DOWN in menu
SEARCH button -- to SELECT menu item

Unfortunately Wi-Fi on my Generic .62 is broken. Shows "Error" instead of "Turn on Wi-Fi".
Maybe the reason is that my previous kernel was your 08 DooMKernel with correct Wi-Fi libs and now they're incompatible with this kernel?

Don't mean to sound stupid or anything, but this is a kernal, so u need to use FASTBOOT to flash it, not recovery at all, wither it has a dedicated recovery partition or not.
I've never hear of using recovery to flash a boot.img file, only .zip update or mod files.

Why do you do this ?
Is it impossible to get it to work otherwise ?
(adb remount is not exactly difficult to do)
Its convenient because you can test a command knowing it will fail and then remount it if you need to.
I can only guess at how much more hassle for people trying to use a touchscreen for file management have.
(If there is something to do with breaking recovery etc then that is a valid reason).
There are benefits to a minimal amount of changes.
So what would it need to do to get ap2sd working on this kernel? Is it the same as the Doom Kernel? I'm curious to see how the battery lasts with this kernel the 42 ftf and 36 baseband and libs

P.S.: recovery is currently NOT integrated

Are you asking if it booted successfully after flashing? Yes it did.
But, in the Kernel Version it still says : "[email protected] #1". Wouldn't it be different if you recompiled it?

thats good enough...
the kernel is from stock kernel.sin, as no kernel sources are available at the moment i cannot do a fresh clean compile...
anyways i am updating the 1st post with the info that the kernel is tested on a device and it works

Please go ahead
Waiting for Sony to release the sources so that we can lay our hands on our very own DoomKernel

i wont be working on custom kernels for Xperia P, Sola & U as i dont have those devices and in anycase i dont have time to work on them...
honestly i would have LOVED to, but due to lack of time i will be barely able to support the existing devices i have (ARC, PLAY, S)... so i dont want to take up additional responsibilities when i know that i wont have time to work on those devices as of now...

Ouch! That's a bummer
I was really looking forward to powering up my phone with a sexy Kernel...
Goodluck nevertheless, have fun in IIMA
Tapatalked from Xperia U
it works. the phone is rooted now, but keep in mind to do a backup of your sms/whatsapp/app, before flash this kernel.
I hear sometimes, a strange "tic tic" from the speaker, never heard before flashing doomkernel.
I will keep testing this
Thank you man!

I had the same problem even when I was on the stock Kernel. Very rarely though. So I'm pretty sure that there is nothing wrong with the Kernel posted by DoomLord.
DoomKernel perhaps?
it's was disappointing...DooMKernel is very good kernel...
doesnt work for me
type all in, but said that i need root access
edit: ok...i got it

I understand, but you shouldn't worry, there are many devs interested in this phone.
I being one of them will be quick to create custom kernel once I get my device (month or 2) and I will be working in the FreeXperia team to bring CM9 to this device
Although, I wouldn't say I am as good as DooMLoRD, I'm sure you will enjoy the work of me and other developers
