Everything looks fine, but I don't know how to test DRM function properly.
Would be so kindly and help me out?
At the moment, WiFi, BT, screen/touch etc. working as it should

Good news, thanks for that.
Check this post for how to check DRM status: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=52990972&postcount=3

Widevine and CKB are OK, there is nothing more on my phone.
So may I assume that your DRM fix is working?

Yes, that sounds like it's working just fine

---

After few hour of testing and normal phone usage I can report that there is no issues at all
I hope it will stay that way

---

Looks intresting. What features are you planning to add next?

can you include drm fix into kernel, not into /system/vendor ?

I remember looking into this before when working the x compact and decided it doesn't work like that. I can't recall the exact reason.

---

Would it be possible to include OC/UC control as well as .kcal support?
Thanks!

I'm a little nervous about adding OC support to the X compact and X. On the X compact, the phone already overheats when under heavy load. That doesn't make a good case for overclocking on these devices for very little gain in real world performance.
I'll look into adding KCAL support.

---

Has anyone played with undervoltage? I have very little experience with the SD650 running under a custom kernel.

---

KCAL would be nice.
OC? I don't think so, X gets pretty hot when used as a video call device or while heavy gaming.
It would be better to add UC or give us a chance to modify some voltages for better battery life and less heat.
After all there is no error on my phone, Magisk work perfect, more advanced functions are working perfectly fine with your kernel.

---

Some undervoltage recommended?
On another phones like Nexus 5 with ElementalX Kernel , SoC works fine using 750mah with [email protected],4/2,5Ghz (Yeah, Overheating is there), and [email protected],1/1,6GHz and 730mah...
Curiously, with their Kernel App UI, you could make another type of Undervolting or force the SoC to other low frequencies... And when you try to install Higher Frequencies installing the kernel, the phone is locked later on Splashlogo/Bootlogo (For Voltage fault, I guess).
I think that you could some similar Kernel for this... And if you think put OC option remember the Overheat and some method for a cooler
- Send from my Oven Xperia X (Bye paint, hallo Aluminium back cover :3).

One of the features I have added for the next release is undervolting - see here.
I'm updating the list as I go.

can you include this 2 commit to your build? For full SuperUserMod.

Any ETA for new version of your kernel?
After one week of testing I can tell one thing - everything is rock stable
