Custom Kernel Deep Sleep Bug Hunt - XPERIA X10 Android Development

** Notice **
There are 2 new kernels out K011 & K012 that are supposed to fix the deep sleep issue. If you are using a ROM that does not include one of these new Kernels please do not continue reporting deep sleep issues on them. Contact your ROM developer and get them to update the ROM with the new kernel. You could try another ROM with the new kernel's included or try the fixes mentioned further down in this post.
Mainly interested in now is reports of deep sleep issue with K011 and K012. Thanks out to everyone for their help with this bug hunt.
**********
Time to find out what those of us who have no deep sleep when running the custom kernels have in common. Even if you don't have any problems with Deep Sleep, your input would be appreciated as it could help eliminate items. If you can think of anything else we can add let me know and I'll update this Post. If possible please attach the same information as I have below as it would help greatly in determining what phones that absolutely can not get deep sleep with the FreeXperia Custom Kernel have in common. When posting possible solutions please indicate if you have had problems getting deep sleep before or not.
Update - I've added a count at the front of each line to count the number of submittal's for that line. As Items are eliminated from confirmed working deep sleep users I'll change the font color to red.
Update 2 - Thread has grown beyond my ability to keep up so I'm Just going to but a synopys at the bottom. If you believe that any of my assumptions there are incorrect, please PM me with the details so I can keep this information as accurate as possible
When reporting deep sleep problem or working include the following information
-------------------------------------------------------------
Phone Information from under battery
Sony Ericsson 10a
Type: AAD-3880074-AV AAAB
FCC ID PY7A388074 CB5
IC: 4170B-A3880074 10W20
Carrier Information
1 Rogers Wireless
GSM/GPRS/EDGE on the 850 and 1900 MHz bands

ROMS tried using custom kernel with deep sleep issues
All FreeXperia ROMs from V014 to V021
[ROM][MAY24]BlackEditionHD_1.4_SE[Gingerbread 2.3.4]

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is what I've been able to determine so far
Majority of X10a have Deep Sleep problems
Majority of X10i are able to obtain Deep Sleep in some way.
So far everyone reporting unlocked phones have deep sleep (Incorrect, some don't have deep sleep)
Possible solutions if you are having deep sleep issues
1. Install V2 or V3 of the mini-loader from the custom kernel thread (DoomLoRD) Link
2. Try the Screen Off Fix (9Lukas5) Link
3. Manually select your network operator. (The Gingerbread Man) Link
4. After fully charging the phone to 100%, reboot after disconnecting (DoomLoRD) Link
5. Un-check automatic updating in date & time settings. (Temoi19) Link
6. (My_Immortal) has a solution If it's the dialer keeping your phone awake. Link
#5 is what finally worked for me. If any of these fixes have worked for you make sure to thank whomever came up with it by following the link to their original post.

The new Rom release is now available in the second post here. The Kernel included does not include overclock so if you want overclock you'll have to download K012 from the first post.
Here are the known issues posted by J in his thread. Please note the items for Deep Sleep and make sure to apply them before reporting any deep sleep issues.
KNOWN BUGS
-after reboot USB mass storage is not working if USB in plugged (unplug/replug USB to fix)

Nice one buddy, great idea, i do not suffer from deep sleep so will edit my post later with my results, do you want the date the phone was manufactured.
I ALWAYS HAVE HAD DEEP SLEEP.
*Sony x10i
*Type AAd-3880056-bv aaac
*FCC ID PY7A3880056 CB5
*IC 41708_A3880056 10w13
*manufacture date year 2010 week 13
Using 3UK, HSPA, i have tried only Jerpelea's roms and had deep sleep on every one, my generic rom used is Sony Ericsson X10i_2.1.A.0.435_X10i and i use J's bb52 but it works also for me on bb49/sony bb52.
My only other point is that my phone was factory unlocked which may be another good point.
For those that don't know how to tell the manufacture date its under the battery and is shown like mine as 10W12, 10 being the year 2010 and W12 is week 12 of that year so April.

Apps that are very active in background prevent my device from going to deepsleep. Like MSN Talk Pro, PowerAMP and idk what more. I dont think its hardware related.

I've actually tried this from a fresh install, with only CPU Spy installed and still I didn't have deep sleep. I'm saying it's hardware related as it could just as well be provider related.

Can you edit your post please to add the information asked for in the first post. We are trying to find something in common between all of our phones.

Yes I tried the same earlier, its just a matter of finding something we have in common, what it is I don't know.
Ok guys just done some testing cm7.03 and disappointing results, atleast for me.
Flashed bb.49, wiped everything in recovery. Fresh install of v21 and flashed v2 miniloader (no reboot in between) and signed into Google, allowed it to sync contacts no Google restore, no gmail, skipped install of Google apps. I have only installed CPU spy through market. Nothing restored through titanium.
My SD card is being a SOB and for some reason thinks I have no pics on my card, so possible issue there so it wont allow me to upload the screenies I just took but I managed 9 seconds of deep sleep after leaving the phone alone after my install as described for maybe about 2 - 2.5 hours. Baseband.49 with v2 miniloader isn't the answer I'm affraid atleast for me. Tomorrow will try same kind of install but using v3 mini loader.
Edit; no luck sorry

Edited, my last post. I see small diferences between you and me.
i don´t remember what bb came with phone, but i gues was .46.
I´ll try that now....
.49 don´t fix deep sleep.

How come we havn't asked those with deep sleep working to make a nandroid backup from xrecovery and upload it so we all can try it out?

Good idea, worth a try, i will do one tomorrow if nobody has done it before, think i will just check with Jerpelea first if that's ok by him.
Edit .... I will just pm a few with it rather upload it.

Great! let us know how that goes.

I guess I'm a bit behind on what this even is.. What is the deep sleep? I know sleep mode and hibernation on a PC, but how do I know if my phone has it or does it?

CPU spy from market

Deep Sleep is sort of like Stand-by mode on your PC, it will wake up by its own to sync mail and do whatever and then go back to sleep. Without deepsleep you will lose 5-10% battery an hour just idling instead of just 1% for every 5-10 hours.

Ok just tired another fresh install on bb.49 this time using miniloader v3. Same testing.g environment as mentioned in cm7 thread. It seems impossible for me.

Does anybody have an unlocked phone that they could try a sim card from another provider with? I've tried a 2nd one from the same provider but my phone is locked so I can't try a different one.

---

cm 7.0.3 - bypass v3
I tried a different simcard today and got deepsleep on it but I also had deepsleep with my usual simcard until it hit 15 % battery. Maybe losing deepsleep had to do with coming out of airplane mode on my device. I couldn't restore it and tried everything written in the other thread.
I gave the hardware - software cause some thoughts. I don't think it is hardware related. Sony would never upgrade to GB if it would be hardware related but I remember they said that they had some trouble with GB and the kernel.
Anyways I use the same apps on J's GB that I used on freex10 and i have absolutely no problems with deepsleep. The problem must reside within the Kernel, bypass or GB since lots of people even get the no deepsleep on a fresh install or lose it after some time.
Also drivers are not complete like camera and proximity. I would guess that there are still lots of incompatibilities that could also be the cause for something like that. Maybe some piece of hardware doesn't get addressed right or something. Figuring out what would be the cause exactly is way out of my league.
Just some 5 cents from me.
Regards

I keep Wifi/3G turned off unless I am using them, so they shouldn't be causing an issues.
Not using any SetCPU profiles/task killers/OC APPS/UV APPS/UV modules
I do get deep sleep in airplane mode (only tested for 2 minutes, but that was 2 minutes more than I've gotten any other time).
Perhaps a radio is keeping the CPU running?
