[Q] 3.4 kernel? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi all
i have a little question
do i die without seeing 3.4 kernel for our device?b
any developers working on it now?
mogami devices are getting android 4.3 because they have 3.4 kernel but we dont have 4,2

neo/v has legacy xperia 4.2 how come play/neo L don't?? it's unfair

Just 10 minutes ago i installed CM10 on Xperia Miro (this is not my device, mine is Xperia Play ...), but what is the point of the situation?? I flashed the FXP kernel and it was 3.0.8 and our kernel version is 2.6.32!!!! 3.0.8 is ten times better than our kernel version!!

all of the other xperia 2011 devices have 3.4 and 3.0.8 kernel
only play and neo l dont have that
as i know everything is smoother in that kernels but we dont have it
but no one answered my question
is anyone working on 3.4 kernel now?
because doomlord closed his project

Is it possible to port the 3.0.8 kernel of an Xperia device with specs close to Xperia play?? Maybe this can be easier than build a kernel from the source

I think that Xperia Play will NEVER have 3.xx+ kernel, because it's difficulty with porting on such device.

Pretty sure there is nothing difficult in porting a 3.4 kernel to this device that isn't difficult for other devices, But we don't have any 1 to develop such a thing thats the main issue.

dead device
most of real devs leaved xperia play
i think our device is going to be dead soon

I know a Dev, goes by the name of “Hashcode". He, is a GOD. He really knows his stuff, he can make the impossible possible. Sadly, he doesn't have the Xperia Play, but he is the reason why the Kindle Fire is alive; he made CM9 and CM10 Series for The kindle although there was never any official 2.3.4 he has made every thing like the 3.4 Kernel and CM for Kindle. Maybe I can ask him, about the xperia Play, I know he can make some kernels without having the physical device but I will still ask, he may know something.

Need suggestions for a new rom

Hi everyone,
I am a ROM dev and I wish to create a new ROM for Xperia S. I have so far noticed that AOSP looks are not very popular in this forum, so I want some suggestion from the people of this forum.

I would die 4 this one
CM10 with the following mods:
Xperia NXT Lockscreen
Xperia media apps (walkman, sound enhanscements, gallery,download music info)
Xperia status bar and launcher
Xperia camera
Btw with the recovery of stock ics kernel o at least a recovery that works ok, not like the other ones that mess up everything with the partitions and cache.
And that's all i can think about right now. :good:
Ive been trying to gather those myself but its almost impossible as i always end up with a bootloop.
Uh um, I would prefer to develop on a stock base. Also, we are any way going to get official JB so no point in theming CM10 to look like stock right?
Thanks a lot anyway
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
I'm an ion user but if you're going stock based I'd just like something that's fast and smooth. My current stock ics slows down all the time. If you make a fast stock based rom that works on locked bootloader me and a bunch of people would be super happy.

How about helping rayman to develop pure cm10.1 rom ?? So the development of the rom will be faster and will be the best rom .... Pure CM is the best rom i think and many people use it to based their rom, because the development is daily and many user reporting bugs ....
And now it's only on v4 going to v5 ..... I think you will be busy to develop that rom

Well i must say i appriciate your work, nexus, for XS, cause people with locked bl are left with no choice between sony and AOSP, i think you will have a bunch of users when v.2 comes out, also when JB comes. Only thing that stoping people to decide for your rom is. FW.55 base instead 45, 50 . Cause they already rooted on those FW and it is much simple to do, cause no need to use flashtool, and not riskig warranty because then can revert on carrier braded Fw in chase of trouble,
Any way i realy hope that you wont give up nexus xperience, i have been searching for it long time
Or try porting Cm , pac,...on LBL especialy for people that cant unlock BL,like me, i would unlock it if i could, and there are many folks in same situation
Poll added
Hi guys,
Thanks for all the suggestions. I have come up with some ideas. Please participate in the newly added poll so that I will know what to build. Also, I will be able to make roms only for Xperia S/SL as I don't have any other devices. Sorry. [ Unless someone manages to port it of course ]

That would be quite difficult and apart from being difficult, apktool has a problem with our phone's framework-res.apk and hence whatever you do, after modifying framework-res.apk, the phone bootloops. There is a work around for that using a binary diff program but it would be extremely difficult and time consuming.
Hy i have been thinking for a while and wanted to suggest you to take look in xperia neo development section, for rom called jjdoctors hybrid i used that rom when i had Neo, and its awsome,support both BL statuses, i think you would have a great response, and many users in XS section
What do you say?

And bootloader is not a problem at all. Actually speaking, all custom roms based on stock ics **should** work on both bootloaders.

[Q] No custom ROMS on ZL????

hey guys!!!
i am keen to get a ZL soon.. and hell yes i prefer the ZL over s4 or HTC One.. but i just checked out the forum & noticed that not major development has taken place yet.. be it custom ROMs or MODs.. wherein Z's forum is full of it.. that puts me one step back.. will ZL get less development than Z??? I would really want to stick with a phone which happens to be modded & developed... Its strange to know that ROMS for Z & ZL would be different as both of them are practically the same phone apart from the outer curvature & 2-3 tiny features... any takers to explain this to me??
Also battery life means a lot to me.. wanna know from the users as to how is the battery performing.. I am on HTC OneX at the moment & the only think i dont like about this phone is the battery life... need ur input guys!!! pls help!!
The ZL hasn't been made available globally as the Z did, so give it some time for it to pick up in popularity. The Z had an entire month head start on the market, and the ZL was only available two weeks ago.
Would some devs care to chip in as to whether developing for the ZL is any different than developing for the Z?
AW: [Q] No custom ROMS on ZL????
I think most dev will code for Z, because that is the advertised flagship. Nevertheless I hope that Mods and Roms can easily be ported from Z to ZL.
There is a first Cyanogen Port, although the ZL isn't released yet in many parts of the world. Samsung maybe won't get it years after release.
And you don't need 238 different ROMs, you just need one that fits!
If someone would help get me started I'd make a Rom for the ZL. I made a stripped down and buildprop changes Rom on the Samsung mesmerise which is the cdma version of the galaxy s back in early 2011. But I'm not sure where to start now :/

I'm in. The only thing that really needed on ZL is voltage control because the phone gets quite warm during prolonged operation. I don't like it. I see DooMLorD making custom kernel for the Z and I hope he will make one for ZL as well. But since he is busy with life that may take some time...

There is nothing wrong with stock ROM. Only thing is we need more customisation like voltage control and such. Stock Xperia Launcher suffers from lags from time to time. I just use stock 4.2 Jelly Bean launcher and works much better than Xperia Launcher in terms of smoothness and responsiveness

[Discussion] : do you want Firefox OS on xperia s?

As the title said, do you want Firefox OS, on sxs?
Sony released the kernel(Linux 3.0.8) and system source of firefoxOS for xperia e , so porting should be possible

You read it wrong. Only the system is from xperia e. The kernel will be using xperia s kernel. And since Firefox os uses Linux kernel, I think it can be ported.

ooh.. you just dont want to say that you're wrong right? j/k.
well, the devs have source for xperia s kernel (the 3.0.8 one, from Sony, and/or cm10 kernel from fxp and others), and there is source from firefox os too. and you know, there is ubuntu touch for xperia s in the development thread right? it can be done, so why this (firefox os) is impossible?
still, i dont know for sure though, as im not a dev or anything. just using my logics

The kernel is very similar (90-95%) to the stock sony kernel , but it has firefox os patch and xperia E Soc(msm7227a) drivers .... I'll only include all the xperia s drivers and adapt the rom to xperia s hardware ... It's a dirty way , but I need first to get it booting , and next we can improve and fix it.

Yes.
It will be useless i think, you will loose your time to do it.
We already have too many great roms, what are working really good, and i think (that's my opinion) we do not need firefox os.
if its work why not
its always nice to have another new things
if you want any help pm me
It would be nice to try FirefoxOS on our phone
Firefox OS would be amazing! I heard rumors that they use the same drivers from Android. Would anyone have a clue where to begin?

FirefoxOs share a lot of part of the HAL from android.
We have to begin from the kernel, after we get it boot, lets start adapt the rom

It would be nice to try it out - it's always nice to have options to choose from. That being said, i doubt Firefox OS will catch on because even Ubuntu Phone OS will have wider audience and a bigger usage base.

Up until now there wasn't so much of an incentive though, seeing that at best JB would have been a laggy novelty rom that was too heavy to be a daily driver. It's not so much the case now that 4.4 seems to be optimised especially for devices like ours! Maybe devs will be more eager to sink a few weeks more into it!
I'm trying to get GoogleNow home launcher to run on SuperJellyBean (4.1.2), but it won't work, Velvet.apk keeps crashing. Not sure what its missing, but working fine on my MK808 android stick with 4.2.2.

It's not so much the case now that 4.4 seems to be optimised especially for devices like ours! Maybe devs will be more eager to sink a few weeks more into it!

I am no expert or a dev but i think it is highly unlikely that 4.4 grants that much of a performance boost over 4.1+ on the Play

I've done practically nothing except read about KitKat since it was introduced, and I can promise you that performance of this OS will be much higher than any Jelly Bean roms.
The memory footprint required by apps and services has been trimmed by a large amount. Games on the PLAY will no longer run out of ram. There's plenty of documentation on the web right now explaining why this OS would be perfect for devices like the Xperia Play.
Anyway it would be very hard as you would have to make a kernel designed for it which will take some time and you would need to get the touchpads working and edit the build prop

That sounds great.Excuse my ignorance but what exactly is stopping people from creating a ROM based on KitKat for the Play?

No current kernel is working. Like it won't boot up properly or whatever.
