Bad kernel?

My s3 has been acting up lately. Battery would read different. For example one second it would be 25% the next it would be 48% (tried it with different batteries). Sometimes incoming SMS wouldn't make any noise even though volume is on max. And Google play music randomly skips some songs.
I traced back what I did and here's the last modifications I did lead in up to these issues
- made a nandroid
- installed Linux kernel 3.0.41 as per the instructions
-installed setcpu
- didn't like it
- restored from nandroid
Stock touchwiz ROM. And I used the proper kernel for it. It was either .41 or .42. But I remember it being the right one and it worked.
Do u know how I can fix these issues.

I don't think that kernel is supported anymore. So not sure.
I would try to use kt's kernel if I were you.

Pimp My ROM?

Anyone used Pimp My ROM on their xperia play? I couldn't get it to work very well so didn't go through with the process. Anyone else had better luck?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
No. Does it meant to work on ours?? Just curious. I've read about it but nver tried it tho.

It apparently works on every android device. It loaded up but it was quite unstable and buggy. Things would select themselves, without input from me and it wasn't calibrated very well.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Then i'll pass. If does not specify any list of compatability with "Play" on then it got potential to ruin ur phone. Its good to take risk, but its better to be sav.

The xperia play is HDPI, right?

I think...
i REALLY, REALLY want this.
Gonna try it now.
Ill post the result.
It just froze on me when i tried again. It keeps making selections itself and i was trying to battle against it to no avail

Hey try using 1.5 because the creator said theres no calibration on the latest aroma.

I couldn't get the calibration thing to work but i did get V1.5 to work by using the volume keys and home button. Rebooting now
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
YES, I GOT IT WORKING!!!
I used 1.5.
Make sure u use hardware controls( volume keys, home button) .
Everything works fine and smoother except for svoice. But thats probably because it doesnt work on GB
--- CyberScopes ---
Did you install ALL the tweaks?
I didn't and don't notice a huge difference but my play was quite smooth anyways. Tempted to try everything but there is no "unpimp my ROM" as of yet.
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF300T using xda app-developers app
Yep used all tweak.
There's a huge difference.
Probably because im not using supercharger
---CyberScopes---
I am supercharged, but only the launcher. I might go back and do all the tweaks. Is gaming fine for you cause i thought some things may make gaming worse?

Sorry, that was a bit unclear, but surely you saw a thread on XDA about swapping and explaining the process of swapping etc.?
If so, try asking in that thread?

Touchscreen/charging bug

I thought v9 was supposed to fix it, but I'm still experiencing this issue and probably even worse than before. Anyone else still have this issue?
In case some don't know its when the phone is charging and the touchscreen becomes very unresponsive.

Are you running the rooted zip or sprint ota?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Rooted zip. Tried all variants of v9 and still have the issue.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
It's because the kernel is what handles the charging I asked a guy who said he pulled a boot.img from V9 ota to post it and I'll check it out
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
I think its worse in ZV9. So the kernel had to change.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium
Man I just got the new kernel, its the same versions but they patched it or something because that bug is GONE. Gonna test out some more and post tomorrow if I get time.

I have the AT&T version.
And I can't remember if I read this in the international forum or the AT&T forum, but the bug seems to only happen (for me anyways) if you are using a different charger.
Try the original plug and cable and see if it still works.

Ah, well sorry about that then. I was hoping it would work.
I read one of the recent updates for the AT&T version fixed that bug, but I am running an older ROM and can't say if it has been fixed.
I know that doesn't help here though.
Funny i noticed it after the zv9 but its only with cheep crap chargers putting out around 57 hertz not the normal 60 stok charger does not do it for me...

Have you tried using a different USB port / cord? I know that our phones don't play well with 3.0 usb ports.
GL!
Try mtp mode

Did you make sure USB debugging was checked in the developers section?

Awesome, I felt like it had something to do with the hardware. Just a hunch?
