Introduction
As I saw various posts regarding flashing baseband from another firmware, I decided to take a look at a way to do it properly.
First, let me clarify something: flashing baseband partitions from flashtool is not enough! In fact, baseband firmware is composed of multiple files stored in /system/etc/firmware. Proof of this is that if you only flash baseband from flashtool, version won't change in the about box. Just replace files in /system/etc/firmware and version changes.
So copy file is enough? Well, not exactly as many reported that flashing partitions has an impact. Looking at partitions extracted from firmware, amss_fs_1 and fs_2 are empty but fsg is not. I suspect that it contains parameters that are used by the baseband firmware.
That's why I came up with these zip files, they install baseband files in /system/etc/firmware and flash amss partitions at the same time.
I'm looking for beta testers, I currently have .211 and .55 basebands. Send me a PM if you are interested in testing.
Instructions
Download the baseband you want to replace
Copy the zip file at the root of your internal storage/sdcard
Optional, but *highly* recommended, copy the md5 at the same location
Reboot to recovery and flash baseband
Reboot to your rom and check version in settings/about box
Please report success or failure to the thread.
FAQ
Is it safe ?
Well, I did it multiple times without any bad consequence. I can't promise it won't kill your phone though. As far as I know, this is the first time that amss partitions are flashed this way.
What are potential issues ?
First, using baseband from another firmware could lead to problems as rom are tuned for the matching baseband firmware. It could lead to disconnections, problem with calls, bad reception...
One effect I noticed is that agps seems to be reset after flashing. No big deal but first gps fix will take longer.
Where are the files ?
I want to do a private beta-testing before releasing them in the open. Contact me in PM if you want to be in the beta-test phase.
Good Job! Nice Feature to Add At my ROM ... GG.
Thanks bro,required it desperately

Well, you can try at least, but I'm not sure that baseband is the only issue.
I had a problem today with the 2.55 baseband on my aosp 3.4 kernel, I couldn't call when I was on 2G. It could be a random operator fluke, but it could be related to the baseband. Difficult to say. It's not exactly JB firmware, so your results could be different.
I'll do more test in coming days, but flashing baseband could give more troubles than it solves.
2g is still not working properly? even on official .200 and .211 ?
trust me its working better than ics .....for me(at least)...
just put the write APN settings there and it will be fine...
@letama, are you going To release your 3.4 aosp kernel in near future?

Sure. I have small details on my aosp build to fix before, but it shouldn't be too long.

So you were faster than me, I already suspected that .
Few questions on your kernel: does it follow mako or CAF guidelines?
And did you 'bulk' update the video/ion drivers or did you merge them cleanly.
Last but not least, did you watch out for the new V4L2 camera drivers so we can use the camera blobs from Sony's official JB releases?
Ping me in GTALK (now Hangouts) so we can chat a little
Which is the Baseband version for .211 fw? If it is something beyond -32 then I can test it, but if not will be a waste of time...

Well, it's Sony one with mako video bulk update, I only separated gpu/fb/ion, but same method as 3.0.x.
I'm using exclusively Sony JB proprietaries, camera is fine with the same 1080p stuttering problem as Sony one though.
I'll ping you tomorrow, a bit busy tonight

ok, good to hear my work isn't useless, cause I didn't bulk update mine, but merged the jb_2.5 CAF branch into our kernel.
Because nozomi really isn't mako, eventhough we can get along with mako drivers pretty well. Nontheless, staying in sync with CAF is much more future-proof and once Android 5.0 or whatever drops, it'll take me a simple 'git merge' to be up-to-date.

That can't be the reason, they could add motion eye support without V4L, lol.
I think they wanted to implement a more generic driver than their ICS implementation and somebody decided on V4L.
That could alsp explain their struggles with 1080p encoding/recording.
My 3.4 CAF kernel has higher vidc clocks and different ION allocation than Sony's kernel for 1080p, so let's see if I can get this stutter fixed without Sony.

how does this rom relate to official CM10.1, especially since they have now released an RC? does the rom support OTA updates?

Cm10.1 RCs are rolling out but CM support for Ion (not FXP) ended on cm9 and there are no RCs for Ion as I see. But, as soon as FXP develops CM10.1 or RC roll out for Ion, I will make 4.2.2 version for Ion. Yes, there's no OTA update for now.

Oh. That just cooled me off from unlocking the BL :/
Since my contract includes unlimited texts, I use them a lot. Having a limit would be less useful (as I would have to send the next sentence in another sms :/ )
it would be nice if include the file manager for next version. it's important for people who use titanium backup. need to install apk without connecting to internet.
othet than that , it's a good rom

Would you please certify to me that you can type more than 160 characters while sending an SMS? It would be really nice.
Otherwise you can still make flashable CWM zips with Titanium Backup, so that you can flash a zip containing your file manager for example

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for Xperia S, SL, Acro S and Ion have arrived and th latest know build is 6.2.B.0.211
The new Jelly Bean brings feature from Xperia Z, which includes:
Updated, more intuitive versions of Sony Media apps: WALKMAN, Album and Movies
Lets you view and access all your photos, videos and tunes in one place.
Increased options for personalisation
A revamped home screen experience for handling widgets, apps and shortcuts… With up to 7 desktop panes, widgets that auto-resize and actionable notifications, you have complete flexibility to create the interface you want / need with a few simple touches!
Improved app organisation and search
Application tray sorting is that bit breezier – just press and hold on any app – move, add it to your desktop or create a folder within the tray by dropping it on top of another! We’ve also added a new search function within the application tray that makes it easy to locate your local apps.
Improved camera functionality
More intuitive viewfinder with the addition of auto scene setting, and the option to switch between front and back camera with a single touch.
Small apps
Small apps provide an easy way to multitask. A small app only takes up a small area of your screen and is visible all the time. So you can interact with a small app and another application at the same time on the same screen.
Google Now
Combining the power of Google search and user profiling, Google Now helps you accomplish daily tasks more efficiently. Learn more about Google Now.

No, according to Sony twitter before XP JB and Sony Blog when XP JB was released, Xperia's S/SL/acro S/ion will get JB together, the update was always announced together for these phones it's unlikely that Sony changed it's mind in the last second (S, SL, acro S got the update certified early may so according this logical they should got the update long ago).

Which lines do you need to change exactly? Also, I doubt it will work if you have the leak installed as devices with unlocked BL cannot update by Sony PCC.

I haven't unlocked my BL. Anyway, even if the codes OP provided won't work, soon enough someone will get the update and knowing how to change these numbers properly would be useful. I changed that value in 3 places in build prop: ro.build.fingerprint , ro.product.name and ro.semc.version.cust
Edit:
DooMLoRD has spoken. Guess I'll just wait for someone kind enough to provide the ftf then.
I think somebody better upload the ftf file for flashing, it is the best and the easiest way to update

Amazing work, thank you for all your hard work krabappel!
I shall try this Rom the minute you release a version with working mobile data.
Nice job! Congratulations

Guys what about the camera? That will be possible in near future?
When this rom is ready it'll be the one for the Z1.
Just need a few kinks ironing out.
Really looking forward to this, once mobile data is working I'll give it a go. Not putting you under any pressure, but I thought I read that you had this working in the other thread in the General section?
Keep up the good work

Hardly working, but if I understand correctly getting the camera to start and all is possible with unlocked bootloader, it just cannot focus and that makes it pretty much useless.
Im assuming no one has tried this then at all? Ive just wasted time testing this... theres an issue, when you choose wipe data/ factory reset, the data partition doesnt mount... this results in constant FC since data has not been wiped...
on top of that you cannot then restore a backed up ROM since Data partition does not mount!
Not sure if you've even tested yourself?
seems its best to fix recovery first before distributing ROMS
my 2nd day wasted on Custom Roms...
EDIT: Fixed data mount issue, format successfull

Any news? Coming from nexus is love to see this working. Just waiting until I can make calls and use mobile data.Bluetooth is a non issue.the camera has been fixed in 4.3
i am almost sure krabappel2548 mentioned in the doomlord ZU GE 4.4.2 rom thread that he would fix the camera and other issues, and then (as far as i know) he went missing
I think the sony agents have abducted him in order to prevent us from beeing free from their stock roms

Hello to all of you,
I have some very sad news especially for Xperia Z1 and ZU users..
But first I wanna give a lot of thanks to all of you for the great support and confidence in me throughout my development times here on XDA, I've met some wonderful people and learned a lot. I know people respect me and it's given me a great feeling of satisfaction.
I have some really difficult issues/situation to deal with in real life now, I can't keep running away from it. I'm sorry to announce to the entire community I'll stop development right now.
I don't know if and when I'll come back. I hope I can come back, but it all depends on my personal situation. Please don't sent me a lot of pm's about the issues. Thank you.
Regards to all of you,
Krabappel2548

I think it is just what it reports as reception. I built my own version last week and it had the same reporting issue with signal but i had no problems with calls. I think it is something to do with slimrom.
@Demetris Good job on releasing rom for the XAS.
Beta 2 is up!
Enjoy and Happy New Year @all

The screenshot and recent apps image problem should be fixed by OpenSEMC's source.

It is something i do manually to fix. Just modify a file. I let the author know how to fix it so shouldnt be a problem probably just forgot to add the fix before compiling. I do that myself occasionally.
ART working good, big different in ram consumption n better multitask

hello guys
I'm presenting you first TRİM enabled kernel for Galaxy W
first of all big thanx to my brother @lafactorial ı didnt use to make this without him
he compiled kernel for me(my pc is still broken )
kernel base is lafactorial's Khan kernel so every feature in khan kernel are included in this kernel
this kernel is also including especially TRİM support
We need an explain of TRİM support
So What is TRİM?
Fragmentation occurs on traditional hard drives. When a file is deleted from a hard drive, its space is “liberated” when the file system erases the pointer to the start of the file. When the next file is to be written, the controller finds the first free spot on the disk, and starts writing the file. If the file is too big it fills up the empty spot, then puts a pointer to the next free spot on the disk, and then starts writing again. This process is repeated again and again until the file has completely been written. As more files are deleted and new ones written, the disk becomes more and more fragmented. As fragmentation increases, performance decreases. To remedy the situation we must defragment our hard drives — which takes quite a bit of time.
Data stored on NAND flash is saved differently than on traditional hard drives. Similar to HDD storage, NAND also keeps a map of where data is stored. When you delete a file, rather than freeing up that spot for re-use, most of the time it’s simply marked as “not in use”. The data is still there, and, more importantly, the entry in the file system is still there. (We just can’t access because it’s “not in use”.) That means as you write and delete files, the file map has to get bigger, and it takes more time to find the files that you’re looking for. While technically not “fragmentation”, this ”I/O lag” becomes more pronounced with use– causing your device to operate more slowly the more you use it. This problem has been present in virtually every Android-powered device (and almost every other device that uses NAND flash for storage), we just haven’t noticed it too much — until now.
TRIM to the rescue!
TRIM essentially goes through the file records and frees up blocks that you’ve deleted by telling the controller to stop keeping track of them. Now the controller only has to keep track of the files that haven’t been deleted, which speeds things up significantly!
TRIM support was included in the desktop Linux kernel in 2008. Microsoft’s desktop operating systems didn’t get support until 2009 with Windows 7. Apple didn’t pick up TRIM support on OS X until 10.6.8 in 2011. Android, however, didn’t pick it up until version 4.3.
Unfortunately, if your device isn’t running Android 4.3, it’s unlikely that your OEM has built in TRIM support. For those of you who have new devices running Android 4.3 and later, you’re all set — TRIM is set up and running automatically. If you’re using a device that was running a down-level version of Android and you upgraded it to version 4.3, you probably want to do a factory reset to regain your lost speed, though you shouldn’t notice any further slowdowns if you opt not to start from scratch.
At the moment our roms (cm10.2 and cm11) is supporting TRİM feature but our kernels doesnt
so if you want to see TRİM is working or not on your phone then you can enter the following commands in Terminal emulator
su
fstrim -v /cache
you will see the following message
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
so your kernel doesnt support TRİM
but if you install this TRİM supported kernel
then result will be like this
:good:
Download:
big ram(360 mb) TRİM kernel:http://yadi.sk/d/q25Hb5VORq4uR
stock ram(340 mb) TRİM kernel:http://yadi.sk/d/AOTJrl01Rq5Fv
Just flash it via cwm and do not forget to wipe cache and dalvik cache before and after installation
For Devs
we(lafactorial and me) just gave erase capability to emmc chip by reverting the following commit in kernel https://github.com/arco/samsung-kernel-msm7x30/commit/797ddcb9bf1b30d4cdac45e81568e19797ffad19
yep you can see sir arco's warning in commit message but dont worry for about bricks because our emmc chip is good one(Sandisk SEM04G) not a bad one(like MAG2GA)
we published this kernel in another turkish forum(http://www.maxicep.com/forum/konu/kernel-cm11-khan-kernel-trim-destekli.893317/) and lots of peoples used this kernel for 1 month and still using(you can look date of thread) and no one faced brick or something like that
just ı trimmed 3 partition (/data /system and /cache) 100 times and ı didnt face any brick yet :victory:
Thats all
Enjoy!
NOTE!!!
This kernel is only compatible with latest cm11
do not forget that
and also Once you boot with a trim-enabled kernel, trim function will run automatically in the background and cannot be disabled by the user!
but if you want to trim partitions manually you can use this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grilledmonkey.lagfix&hl=tr
have a nice day
Thank you for such a good kernel!
