[Driver] Asix AX88772 kernel module (USB Ethernet) for Xperia Tablet Z - Xperia Tablet Z General

Hi,
This is my first post so let me know if there is anything missing...
Based on this thread dedicated to the Galaxy S III, I managed to build the kernel module for the USB Ethernet adaptator for the Xperia Z tablet.
It was not that easy for me, so if other are interested, here is the precompiled file for the stock ROM 10.3.1.C.0.136 (4.2.2).
(I also built it for the Xperia Z ROM 10.3.1.A.2.67, feel free to ask for it)
For any instructions how to use this file, please see the thread linked below in the Galaxy S II forum, it works the same for the Xperia Tablet Z.

Hi,
finally I got in to work in my xperia ion ics stock kernel .But the problem is as per this post slideshare.net/gxben/elce-2012-dive-into-android-networking-adding-ethernet-connectivity Many apps based on java framework will rely on connectivity manager, they do not recognize the connection. An ecm patch was already ported to android x86. But if such a patch is made for arm based phones and tablets one could flash a custom kernel to make it work.Installing a kernel is not that much easy for an average android user like me. With a locked bootloader is it possible?.If such a patch exists for arm phones.

Hi, KrisTouF!
Thank you for your work and could you please share usbnet.ko too.
And two more questions:
which adaptоr do you use and should these files work with all adaptors or only with yours?

[Q] USB WIFI TP-WN722n $15

Hi have been trying to get a TP-WN722N to run on my i9505 rooted and cwm recovery
TP-WN722N chipset = atheros ar9271
needs ath9k_htc driver
and htc_9271.fw
has anyone got a module i can insmod?
Am new to android as of 2 days ago so am still learning how to do everything. Bricked about 3 times.
Am trying to connect this usb wifi adapter to get monitor mode and injection. for aircrack/reaver
(maxters - aircrack-suite-for-galaxy-note-2)
or a link to a newbie tutorial to build kernel source supporting ath9k drivers?
Anyway will donate $15 to anyone that can get me running (is this allowed?)
cheers
Will still donate if somebody can help
compile kernel
Am about to compile kernel from source and build modules.
Will post after if it is successful and anyone is interested?
Will try do ath9k and rtl8187 drivers.
success
Success. Had problems with compiling on ubuntu 13.04. Then couldn't insmod the compiled modules due to dependencies for the mac80211 module so I ended up just compiling wanams adam kernel with the required modules built in and bang no more problems. Copied firmware to folder.
Tp link tl-wn722n wifi adapter running in monitor mode. Aircrack and reaver working with no problems. No -1 channel issue. hasn't cause any other problems with the phones built in wifi or anythng else.
Hope someone may find this useful. Will upload when i can post links if anyone wants it. But would be better to compile yourself
P.s. i am using this for easy pentesting on networks which i have permission. Not intended for illegal purposes.
This is awesome! Great work, i would love you to update the files as i am pretty new to linux...

So you placed all of the modules and everything into a kernel and flashed it? May you please post a link in a drop box or something, to the working kernel with the modules in it?
Sorry for the huge bump

Hi there. Decided to stop lurking and finally made an account. Also, I realize this is an incredible bump, but it's the only thread I could find on the subject.
I managed to compile the latest release of the CM11 kernel (same as my S4 is running) with ath9k and mac80211 support baked in (not modular), but my AR9271 is still b0rked. It shows up in lsusb, so it's working, but not functioning. I've tried like, everything....... except giving it extra power. Did you need to do that? AFAIK it only draws about 200-300 mA at most, and the S4 is more than capable of that ._.
Does anyone know if there's something special needed to get the adapter working apart from plugging it in? I'm losing sleep D:

[09-06]SailfishOS & Multirom. How to set up guide

Hi sailors out there
When I'm going to read through the available sailfish threads the question about how to set up multirom & sailfish have been asked many times. So I thought I'm writing this little guide. I describe the procedure along the nexus 4 mako. But it have to be very similar on other devices like nexus 5 for example. The important parts that differs from mako are the kernel and modem image you've to use. I will describe the easiest way in my opinion. Experienced users have more capabilities to reach the goal. I will not describe how to install twrp recovery and unlock bootloader. Both are prequesites. Please use xda search or google to get this. But this little guide want's to be simple as possible. So let's begin .
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Beginning:
First we have to detect you're actual setup and where you want to go. Because nexus 4 is up to date I think the most common goal is to run android 4.4 as primary and sailfish os as secondary. Atm I have only paranoidandroid 4.4 on my device and will show you how to get everything working.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements / Download following parts:
kernel aosp: http://d-h.st/A99
kernel cm: http://d-h.st/CCn
aosp = android open source rom. Ask in you're rom thread what version you're on with the rom
cm = cyanogen mod rom. Ask in you're rom thread what version you're on with the rom
Modem for nexus4 in version 0.84: http://d-h.st/cIJ
or
through an app in play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bpear.makomodem&hl=de
sailfishOS ea4: http://releases.sailfishos.org/sfa-ea/sailfishos-mako-release-1.0.8.19-EA4.zip
cm 10.1.3: http://get.cm/get/aWH
Multirom manager in play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tassadar.multirommgr&hl=de
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before we're going on check up the following
1. All zip's you've downloaded have to be transferred on the device
2. Apps from play store are installed
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation process
Reboot in twrp recovery
Flash the new kernel
Flash the modem 0.84 in twrp. Or via the modem flasher from playstore. It's you're decision.
Boot back into android
Proof the functionality in android withe the new modem and kernel. Wlan working? Bluetooth? NFC?
Open mutlirom manager. Follow the installation steps.
After some time you'll be back in android. You have now the right modem, kernel and and a twrp multirom version on you're device
After this. Please reboot back into twrp recovery
There select the advanced button.
Then the multirom button
Select add rom and mark up the entry sailfish os
Press next.
Now you can choose two zip files to flash
zip1: Select the cm10.1.3 zip file
zip2: Select the sailfish EA4 zip file
Installation process is beginning.
After this select reboot
You automatically went into multirom where you can cancel the automatic boot process for the primary rom. Then you can select which rom you want to start.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And the most important thing is to read: http://forum.xda-developers.com/jolla-sailfish/general/qa-sailfish-n4-thread-devices-t2727330 for further question before you ask. I have described there many things to start with sailfish. If you find this useful think about to press the thanks button.
I'm a bit confused why do you insist on updating the modem? I checked my modem version and it is newer so I imagine there is no need to update. Also why use such an old version ov CM?
Just asking because I did all according to your instructions except I used newer CM build and didn't update my modem firmware as it was already newer. But for some reason Sailfish wont boot. It just hangs showing Google at start.

Also I stated in first post why I only described the way I've did
Ahh ok nevermind got it working once I used the older CM image. Wifi seems not to be working but I guess that is because I didn't downgrade my modem firmware. I guess I'll wait for a more stable builde or better yet buy a Jolla phone. Just like having the nexus 4 as I can test bunch of operating systems on it.

Ok thanks for the hint. I used to be one of the early adopters of Jolla, but couldn't use it as my daily phone so I sold it, but now that the OS has matured I think I maybe swithing back. Even though I still think Nokia N9 had far better UI experience. If only some would port N9 UI to Sailfish

I feel the same, don't know why, but i just loved the N9 and the way the OS worked. I am not saying that sailfish is bad or something, but there Are somethings missing ...

They've practically done nothing since pre-release to improve and refine the UI, and so many incredibly basic features are missing (voicemail notifications, global copy and paste etc). The pulley menus are ropey and the active covers feature hasn't really been made use of much. They seem to be mainly concentrating on the Jolla Launcher for Android, which will definitely make them higher profile ... but if all their software engineers and UX guys are working on that instead of Sailfish itself, then it seems like cutting off their nose to spite their face.
I'm not a fan of Android and I can't see myself ever using WP or iOS, but the lack of progress and their production priorities are a bit dispiriting. I'm hoping that they're holding a lot of big and waited for improvements for update 1.1 (October).
Anyway, I'll keep it as my main phone for a bit longer, despite the fact that I have a Z3C coming early next week. Hope to see a decent Sailfish port for it soon.

Don't think I'll regret getting the Z3C, from a hardware perspective ... held one the other day, as a friend had been gifted one by Sony. It's absolutely superb. Granted, I despise Android .. but for when the Jolla ****s itself / runs out of battery / when GPS or a camera is needed / roaming / skype /outdoor use, I can suffer it until there's a Sailfish port.
Hopefully as work is already under way for the One Plus One, the identical SoC used in the Z3 & Z3C won't be too much additional work.
For all the moaning and groaning about Mediatek, I'm guessing the simplest and best port of Sailfish will probably be for the Meizu MX4, as there'll be an Ubuntu ROM for it, and libhybris is used by Ubuntu Phone ...
Also, hopefully future iterations of the HADK will smooth out some of the problems porters are facing.

it's the same for me...
The SoC in your z3c and 1+1 is actually the same as in z1c, I guess – 8974 vs 8974ac – only higher clocked.
You should not suppose that mediatek SoCs will be easier in general just because of is one working device. Jolla runs a Snapdragon and it works perfectly, most of the devices sailfish is currently ported to run snapdragons – with very different results.

I wasn't saying Mediatek in general will be easier (though it's possible), but any device with an official Ubuntu ROM certainly will (should) be - Meizu MX4 (Mediatek) is the first of those.
P.S. The Z3C is fantastic ... though unfortunately in black as opposed to the red I ordered (it's being swapped tomorrow).
Thank you very much for these instructions. i have one question though. In order to download CM 10.1.3, it says to click that link which takes you to download CM installer app. Ive used that app before and as far as I kmow, it doesnt let you choose which version of CM you want to install, instead it just sets you up to install the newest CM 11. I downloaded 10.1.3 from their site. Either way, no big deal.
Also, which kernel do I download to install? Aosp or CM?
Thank you
Still up to date
Hi,
are these steps still up to date or should we follow a different set up guide to install the latest sailfish OS on the Nexus 4? Because most, if not all, the links on the first page end up 404...
Bluetooth sync from Jolla to Nexus 4
Flashed my Nexus 4 with the factory 4.2.2 from google with radio .48 and then flashed cm-10.1-20131003-SNAPSHOT-TREATFORCOOPER-mako-signed.zip because that seemed to be the 10.1.3 mentioned in the guides to end up flashing the latest sfos from this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/development/rom-sailfish-os-community-port-t2969823.
I didn't try calling, it has 3G network working and wifi is working but I can't seem to get the contacts from my Jolla phone using the Bluetooth sync from the settings.
Anybody has some advice on this?
Just had a good look at the wiki of devices on the mer website and found out the bluetooth is not yet working on the Nexus 4...
Works perfectly on my oneplus one

[Q] Galaxy s4 I9505 with Google edition andriod

Hello guys, i just have a (few) question(s)
So, last week i installed Google Edition Andriod Kitkat 4.4.4 on my galaxy S4 I9505.
This rom is till now, still amazing, fast and better than touchwiz in any way. But i can't seem to find on the internet how and which version of xposed framework i need to install, since it is per model (i think?) which model do i choose?
since i have a Galay S4 but my rom is not from a galaxy S4, i get confused which one i have to install.
Some links to downloads would be great!
Thanks in advance

Hi mate
Basically it works in any android 4.0 + base rom device see from one of his threads
For which devices/ROMs does it work?
I develop the Xposed framework based on the AOSP sources. I'm personally using CM10.2 on an I9100 (Samsung Galaxy S2, bought in Germany). Basically, it should work on any phone which with a ROM based on Android 4.0 or later and an ARM or x86 processor (this is the processor architecture, almost all smart phones and tablets have either of those). Exceptions might be ROMs which are different from the original Android code in some very internal, central code parts (which don't need to be touched for most theming and enhancement modifications). But this is related to the ROM, not the phone itself.
The modules target higher-level code, so they are more likely to be incompatible with your ROM. Basically, the question is whether the methods and resources which the module modifies are similar on your ROM and on the developer's ROM. Let's say a module needs to modify the result of a certain method call. For this, it needs to specify the exact name and parameters that identify that method. If the in your ROM, an additional parameter has been added, the module can't find the method anymore and won't work. If the method can still be found, it will probably work (unless the rest of the app/ROM has changed too much).
There is not definite answer whether it will work. Just try it (of course, making a nandroid backup before is never a bad idea). If it doesn't work, just disable the module. You might want to inform the module developer (not me!) about this fact and provide details (e.g. a logcat and/or the content of /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/log/debug.log).
Try with latest 2.6.1

Z2a users needed for test

Hi Z2a users I see that Sony never released 23.5.A.1.291 for Z2a, but on the source of this compilation is possible to build the kernel for Z2a, so I think is possible for Z2a users install Existenz 5.6.5 with some modifications, so if you have a Z2a and you are interested, write on this thread
If somebody wants, I can share the info
I have a Xperia Z2a D6563 and I am currently using EliteKernel with the eXistenZ, when you install the ROM, and flash the Kernel, the camera breaks, but I created some kind of fix using the Cyberian Z2 camera mod (I used this because I am not a developer but I barely know some stuff) and at this moment I have everything working on the Z2a except the front camera, I didn't know how to fix that but if somebody wants to know how I installed and set all, you can ask for it and I will create a post, it really worths it.
Hey z2a user here how can i help?

ok thank you, first I need that you have UB (unlocked bootloader), because I will give you a custom kernel, the reason, Sony released source for 23.5.A.1.291 for Z2a but never released 23.5.A.1.291 for Z2a so as Z2 and Z2a are really similar in theory we can put the Z2 firmware on Z2a just changing the kernel, so if we archieve this the Z2a users could use Existenz 5.6.5. Please contact me on telegram @ShadowElite22

Hi Z2a users I see that Sony never released 23.5.A.1.291 for Z2a, but on the source of this compilation is possible to build the kernel for Z2a, so I think is possible for Z2a users install Existenz 5.6.5 with some modifications, so if you have a Z2a and you are interested, write on this thread

Well I have a problem, I lost all of my work (kernel and other stuff) because my PC first have a Windows 10 partition and the aubuntu partition, the windows 10 one was damaged and I must format my pc for fix it, I made a backup with Clonezilla of the Ubuntu partition (the one that have all of my work) but the backup wasn't done correctly, and I can't restore it (it seems that it have missing files) so I lost all of my works and I will to start again, the only good thing is that my kernel work is on github so the kernel isn't lost, but all of my other projects are lost, I will to start again this projects soon (first I need to pass some final exams of this semester of university) thanks for your wait I know that is a long wait.

I have a Xperia Z2a D6563 and I am currently using EliteKernel with the eXistenZ, when you install the ROM, and flash the Kernel, the camera breaks, but I created some kind of fix using the Cyberian Z2 camera mod (I used this because I am not a developer but I barely know some stuff) and at this moment I have everything working on the Z2a except the front camera, I didn't know how to fix that but if somebody wants to know how I installed and set all, you can ask for it and I will create a post, it really worths it.

My bad, maybe u downloaded first file, i fixed and updated it as far as i noticed that i have typo in code. (It doesnt hurted your phone, but it doesnt enabled dualsim support too).
But it should work now on AOSP Pie (specially MotexT's one), this patcher was specially made for this rom. And it was tested with positive results.

Hi this doesn't work on pie.
Im using MotexTs AOSP pie and after flashing it doesn't work at all but rather gives an error message "your device has an internal problem please contact your manufacturer"
Any fix for this?
Uploaded an updated version that works with the new property "persist.vendor.radio" instead of "persist.radio".
