[Q] ICS problem with touch games (kernel related?) - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello!
I've recently installed the fxp cm9 ICS firmware port and kernel on my X10. Now, it turns out several games have a bit of a problem with touchscreen commands. For example, after having installed the mobile Rayman game, the buttons on the main menu seem to respond to my touch at first, but don't actually do anything.
Having looked around for this problem, I ultimately found this quote:
"that problem is with your Kernel. There's a problem with the ICS Kernel 4.1.B.0.431 using touch games. You have to upgrade to a Kernel based on 4.1.B.0.587 or a CyanogenMod Kernel."
I'm not that knowledged in the field of android development, but I'm under the impression that the kernel I installed along with the CM9 x10 port is obviously a CM kernel. All kernels currently available on the X10 dev forums here seem to be based on the fxp cm9 kernel port as well. Thus, my question is: has anyone else encountered this problem, is the problem really relevant to the kernel as stated in that quote, and is there anything specific I need to know or do to fix this problem?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Same rom with version 5.1 kernel with same problem. The games seem to work when you first load them but doesn't last long until it stops recognizing the touch screen.

It it's the same problem I have, here's an example: you get into angry birds, select your level, fire about once or twice with slingshot and then no response from the screen. Back, menu and home buttons work but not the screen.

Yeah, I hadn't tried angry birds yet after having installed the new firmware, but I just gave one of the games a testrun and I can't even get in-game, main menu is completely unresponsive.
But no, there's no freezing or anything, I can just leave the game with my hard buttons, it's only the touchscreen in-game that's being unresponsive.
Not all games either since there's plenty of stuff that still works though.

I see.. that must be kernel problem. Im using cm9 galaxy w but no such issue.. have u tried other kernel?
Sent from my GT-I8150 using xda app-developers app

I'm not sure but I thought the other kernels for ICS for X10 were all based on the FXP CM9 port... Please correct me if I'm mistaken.
Hey, a very noob question, but does flashing just another kernel, and not flashing a whole new firmware, also result in all your data being lost? If not, I could just try a few different kernels out without having to take a new backup.

Nope. But for just in case, do a full backup using cwm recovery. A backup is a must when you do such thing.. As long as you read ics kernel for your x10 not other device maybe everything will be okay. Get what i mean? (Bad english )

The kernel has ntn to do with ur apps n data. It is the basic link between ur hardware and ur os. It has the libraries and drivers etc. So ur data won't be lost

[ROM] CM Mod 7 & Stock Hybrid no working

This is a hybrid between stock and CM7
This doesn't work on doom kernel I'll assume it doesn't work full stop! feel free to try or if anybody wants to pick up the project go ahead I'm no longer working on this the download is still available but it doesn't work apparently if you brick your device not my problem you have been warned!
This is for testing purposes only and so you can tell me what problems you have DO NOT GO TO CM FOR BUGS IT'S NOT BY CM MOD
https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B5ITFcGQC-kXNmIyNTNlYTUtNTE1OC00MzJiLTlhODEtMjRjNDVhMmI0ZjM1
Comment with bugs and let me know how it goes some bugs should have been fixed but I don't know what, my phone has been stolen so yea I would like to know how this goes :')
Let me know if play station pocket works and if the game controls do because that's the most important part of this, Timescape UI and much more bloatware has been removed I may have missed some of the games off the update but if so then remove them before using the update package.

[Q] KA07 Rom issues (Hangouts and Maps)

Hi there~i'm new to xda so i cannot post in the development thread but only here.....
I'm using krabappel2548's KA rom, it really gd and fast and stable
i have two problems, when i use google+ hangouts, i see other's image ok and i see myself ok, but the other side (i.e. the ppl i'm talking to) told me that the color of my image is not correct......my face is blue; when i show him a blue object he saw orange;when i show him a pink object he saw blue.....anyone has similar problem?
the other is the map, the compass is not working. i read some threads in xda also stating similar problem, and it only happens in Google Maps 6.x but not 5.xx. Just want to know what is the origin of problem?
Hope it wont be too long...thanks so much!
just tried Skype, the situation is the same, just everything is green instead of blue......
Have tried to reflash the kernel? Sometimes it solves some problems..
Which kernel are you using?? Use NON OC kernel and test it..
Really strange Problem !
I just tried to reproduce it with my old X8, cause my only idea on this was that you installed a wrong localised Rom
(imo US Rom / Jap Rom instead of EU or something like this).
But didn´t get any similar display errors.
I would recommend starting up from the scratch, reinstalling Stock Kernel/rom.

[Q] Need help with kernel

Hi.
I need some help with this ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1846760) because when I install it with the normal kernel I have problems with the WiFi and so, as it is written in the thread, I flash the kernel that fixes the problems, the only problem is that the ROM becomes very unstable.
So, with the normal kernel the ROM is fast and stable, but has the WiFi problem. With the kernel that fixes the WiFi the WiFi works just fine but the ROM becomes very unstable and is always rebooting.
Can you suggest me another kernel or another ROM. I like this one because it is very clean and fast.
Thanks for your attetion.:good:

On the "normal kernel" you might haven't flash its wifi module.
On the fixed kernel, the kernel may not suitable with the rom.
Try fera kernel. Dont forget to load its wifi module

Your flex (the cable that connects the screen to the rest of your phone ) may be damaged or broken, it's the most common cause of this kind of behaviour.

Depends on where you live and if you can replace it yourself, I found one for about 10euros in an online shop.
I think I know your answer !
In my opinion, I think it's nAa kernel's bug. (If you're using it)
Simply update kernel or change to another like alfs kernel.
-I had the same problem(touch screen operates fine but screen out-put goes wild) , reflashing kernel solved my screen issue

You've got stock kernel now, If you still have the problems, it's not a kernel-fault. And I don't think our phones have the alfs-kernel available, i think that that was only cooked for the x8 or x10 (big one).

It`s true. Firstly my proxymity sensor stoped working. After that display was in 2 partions. Status-bar was at the bottom of the screen. Also my phone was unable to boot. It was always rebooting at the start. after disassembly i saw broken flex cable. now i am waiting for replacement parts. It is not a bug of nAa kernel !!! I tried both stock and custom rom!
if you happen to use an X10 mini pro then this is your problem. I already posted it on my thread here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935124
but if you are using an x10 mini then I can't answer you about your prob. but please read the thread and spread the word.

Because the device goes into deep sleep. And you can overclock, if you want.
Btw, use Greenify... You can get it from the play store and kill unwanted apps to run in the background. Hope that works.

well i dont get that lag even without restarting device, whether im on ICS or GB,, (GB is surely faster on my mt25i) we both seem to have similar device, that link would help you, but be careful though
why not try clearing caches? have yout tried? or maybe you use too many applications that runs in background for example, a couple of messengers?

*currently - Xplay LITE ICS with Vengeance( Flashed 8 hours ago,installed no application,but when I tried to unlock the lock screen aftr 7 hours,result was same..very laggy. Wiped caches,data,sys etc .. )
With Stock rom there is no problem..even with MIUI + Turbo Kernel no issue was found and Roms like FXP,CM have no issue..
:'( please help me to sort this out..
Try flashing it to stock? If the outcome is the same maybe somethings wrong with hardware.. I really dnt know, guess u should ask for profesional help

Dear mate,if stock rom is better than the other rom for ur device,i suggest u to use stock rom....
Maybe with a few mod for stock rom....
U can experience with ur device to and if u used another custom rom for ur device and still have same problem,maybe u can ask the dev on the rom thread....
So the dev and other user can help u ...
