FAQ for Xperia Nexus Rom - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

This is a FAQ for the ROM created by me and alokbina - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=37247130
Q1. How to install?
Ans : -
0. Get root and CWM on .587 custom/stock rom. (Only locked bootloader)
1. Copy Rom on SD Card.
2. Flash kernel panic or any custom kernel. (skip for locked bootloader)
3. Boot into CWM.
4. If coming from V1 Rom, don't wipe data. Just wipe cache partition and dalvik cache.
5. This is compulsory - Mounts and storage-->format /system. If you are a new user, wipe data/factory reset , cache, dalvik cache, and format /system. This is a very important step.
6. Install Zip from SD Card.
7. Select the zip and install. In Aroma, SELECT THE RIGHT CONFIGURATION ELSE BRICK YOUR TOUCH.
8. At the end of installation, it will ask you to reboot the device. Uncheck that box and complete installation.
9. Then TURN OFF, do not restart. ( turn off by just pulling out the battery)
10. Remove sd card, battery and sim card for 20-30 seconds. Then re-insert everything.
11. Start phone and wait till it boots. ( If you get a bootloop, do a full wipe and re-install )
11.5 - Go to setting and force stop apex launcher and clear data.
12. Restart the phone TWICE just to make sure that everything is okay.
13. Enjoy your super smooth xperia nexus phone
14. Optional - You can now install small apps if you need it from here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1929016
The small apps above are 100% confirmed to be working. You are also free to flash anything from the list of patches in the link.
Q2. When will it come for other MDPI devices?
Ans : - Just select the correct device and bootloader status in Aroma installer and you should be good to go.
Q3. Is this for both bootloaders?
Ans : - Yes! It work on both bootloaders. I have tested it myself on both. Just follow the installation instructions carefully and you should be successful.
Q4. What will happen if I flash a ST15i rom on any other xperia mdpi?
Ans : - Your touchscreen will stop functioning and you will have a mini-heart attack.
Q5. How to free more ram?
Ans : - Actually, free ram is ram wasted. But anyway - if you have any background apps running like facebook or dropbox, just go to settings and force stop them. As of android honeycomb, once a user app is force stopped, it won't start unless you manually start it.
Q6. I experience a very bad battery drain. What to do?
Ans : - This happens because of the disabled CPU rendering. Although it should increase battery life, I experimentally found out that without it battery is better. Anyway, just flash the attached adreno libs and your problem should be solved.
Q7. Wifi is not working...
Ans : - Go and check your respective kernel page for the wifi modules and flash via CWM.
Q8. Which kernel do you use?
Ans : - Kernel Panic for best performance. Battery life is okay. Approximately rate of discharge is 1% per hour.
Q9. Is this rom good for gaming?
Ans : - With Kernel Panic, I play almost all games with no lag. Temple Run 2, Dead Trigger etc. all run buttery smooth on stock frequencies. Overclocking will definitely help, but don't overclock too much as it will fry your CPU.
Q10. I need a system app which is not included in your Rom..
Ans : - Download stock .587 and place it in firmware folder of flashtool. Open the ftf with winrar and extract system.sin. Then open flash tool and go to tools--->Sin editor. Select system.sin and press dump data. Then go to extractors---->Yaffs2 and select system.yaffs2 file. Wait for the process and then you will find a folder in firmwares called as system_content. Go there and then go to app and take whatever apks you need. Don't unnecessarily create new threads requesting for some specific apks.
Q11. Is this and that mod compatible...
Ans : - Any mod that is for .587 should work.
Q12. I have locked bootloader, but it is laggy..
Ans : - Performance of your device greatly depends on kernel. As you have locked bootloader, kernel panic or any other custom kernel is out of option. If possible, please unlock your bootloader and use kernel panic for the real nexus effect. We will try out best to increase performance on locked bl.
Q13. What to do to fix all the bugs?
Ans : - For now please use any fixes that you find for the bugs. If it is compatible with .587 then it should work. We are working to fix the bugs.
Remember - ALWAYS FOLLOW THE RULES OF XDA

No. You will have to still flash the init.d zip given in the instructions. This issue will be fixed in the v2 of the Rom. Links have been updated. Mirrors added too.

yea, i tried to play HD games,
i play Cytus, at first a little lag, but after sometime it goes well.
then i tried Temple Run 2, just like a normal playing less lag, and i also tried Wild Blood, it is smooth! thumbsup!
my only prob. is the launcher it is laggy..
and after playing the above games, my phone is hot.

Ok thnx a lot for ur reply.....launcher will be replaced as i said and the phone becoming hot problem isn't experienced by me.....still i'll check it and get the solution....

Sorry for the lag but it is not possible to have as good performance on locked bl as that of unlocked bl. Custom kernels are more important than custom roms for performance. If possible please unlock your bl and use kernel panic. Also, the drivers that you flashed are only if you experience a battery drain. Flashing it reduces smoothness as it disables the gpu rendering mod..

Hey. I have a problem with my satsuma. Bootloader: unlocked, wiped everything, flashed the ROM and the patcher, but I´m still stuck at the SONY logo. Tried both rage kernel and kernel panic.

The patch you gave didn´t help either. Still stuck at SONY logo.:crying:
PS: is it normal that aroma installer is only on the upper half of the screen at kernel panic?

[Guide] [Updated] Epic Smooth Stock ICS !!

Ok, so you have somehow upgraded your phone to Sony’s Ice Cream Sandwich, and now you are shocked at the lag of your phone. Listed below are steps you should do to improve your ICS experience, and hopefully feel less jealous of your friend’s (insert name of high-end android model).
Note: This guide is written specifically for Xperia Neo V, but should work on Xperia Neo, Arc/S etc. provided you install the correct kernels for your device.
1. Root your phone and install Clockwork Mod Recovery.
There are two ways to do this, locked and unlocked bootloader.
Locked bootloader:
Please refer to these threads for more info.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1601038
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364509
I might not be able to help as my bootloader is unlocked, but I will try.
Unlocked bootloader
For unlocked bootloader, you should flash a custom kernel for more benefits.
Install fastboot and all the other drivers if you have not already
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24457419&postcount=1
Place the following file on your SD card.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1090931&d=1338234349
Find a kernel with clockwork mod recovery preinstalled. Here are some recommendations.
Suave kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1708532
XNeo kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704268
Night elf kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566871
To flash the kernel, rename the .img file to boot.img and place it into the fastboot folder. Plug your phone in to the USB while holding the menu button. The LED should turn blue. Open cmd.exe, type “cd” followed by dragging your fastboot folder in the cmd. After that, type “fastboot flash boot boot.img” Restart the phone and continuously press the volume down button
2. Remove bloatware.
Auto remove with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26538965 Thank ThilinaC for this!
Manual removal: Install Titanium Backup from the Play Store. Start by removing the useless stuff (Wisepilot etc.) After that, if you are feeling a bit adventurous, you can check out this thread for removing more stuff
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19772266&postcount=1
3. Overclock your CPU. (only for unlocked bootloaders)
This is pretty self-explanatory. Just install a cpu tuner app such as No frills, setcpu, SetXperia. It is generally safe to overclock to around 1.4Ghz.
4. Build.prop tweaks
This is where the stuff gets interesting. Use an app such as root explorer and navigate to /system and edit the build.prop. Add the following lines to the bottom of the file.
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150
persist.adb.notify=0
debug.sf.hw=1
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
Full list available HERE Thank the OP.:good:
After editing, restart your phone and your phone will speed up eventually.
5. Remove CPU rendering
Navigate to system/lib/egl and edit egl.cfg file. Remove the first line. After that delete libGLES_android.so Restart and wait.
6. Install the v6 supercharger (thanks Pandemic for the PM)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1704268
7. Get a copy of the Xperia Sola home, along with other Sola apps. They are way faster than the crappy stuff in the 2011 devices. Available HERE.
8. Install the newest JB Adreno drivers HERE
9. (OPTIONAL) Install the Xperia S Walkman, its faster than the V version lol. (credits go to ThilinaC)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26739806&postcount=1
Games work perfectly fine on my phone. Some random lags on temple run but not FIFA 12.
Why stock rom? Because the rom is actually quite well optimised and doesn't suffer from mulitouch problems. And the Xperia S Walkman is great:victory:
Suggestions are welcome so that we can all improve this thread.:highfive:
Reserved for future use
I didn't miss anything for tweaking my phone,
except this part
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150
persist.adb.notify=0
debug.sf.hw=1
debug.performance.tuning=1
video.accelerate.hw=1

Can you explain what is persist and Window max events per sec ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The persist code is for removing the usb debugging notification when you plug in a usb. Window max events per sec is for improving scrolling speed and the others are for hardware acceleration/gpu.
Suggestion
- Install the XS ICS Home.apk and enable GPU rendering

Thanks for the Xperia S home tip. But I am slightly confused over Enable GPU rendering. Doesn't remove cpu rendering do the same job, or do you mean the force gpu option in developer options.
just asking out of curiosity,doesn't debug.sf.hw=1 enable rendering ui with gpu ? so whats the point editing egl.cfg file ?
or am I wrong?
anyway nice thread
remove bloatware automatically
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=26538965
add it to op if you like,easier than using TB manually for each app

GPU rendering in Developer Options... but some people say that the battery drains fast with that option enable
You should PM a mod and ask for this to be stickied.

PMed and no reply, guess it's not possible
Nice from you that you wrote all this, but all this is pretty much standard procedure for any fw, not just ICS.
And why point 6 is on the list, Xperia S walkman? That's kinda down to each person opinion, right?
Also:
Misc. If you upgraded from gingerbread using the official way, make a backup with CWM and make a complete restore. Of course, you have to apply these tweaks again but your device will be faster.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If you make CWM right after that update and restore it, you won't gain anything(like speed), (possible)stuff from GB will still be in that backup.
If you update, and old stuff is left over from GB, then do repair(with PCC/SEUS), and then you can make CWM backup of clean ICS, but no need to restore it.
And you won't need to reapply tweaks if you do them before CWM backup, after restore, they will also be restored

Mods are very busy, just have patience.
Does anyone have any idas for improving this thread? Because I need a BUMP.
Might not be updating this any time soon, cos I am currently on GB.
More Smoothness
First i'd like to congratulate you! Good Post
Second you can improve smoothness even more if you update your adreno drives...

Nope. Xperia plus v10 is being made right now This is a whole NEW ROM which is so light! Has no major amazing features. Its just ready for you guys to start customizing with all your mods and add-ons!
Did you read my mind? These past few days I've been thinking how nice it would be if a developer here could cook up a completely stripped down, clean and mean GB ROM. And here you are. Thank you Apmartin. I'll be installing it and will give feedback.
PS Can I still get widgets from other external apps to place on my home screen?

I had some problems installing Xperia Slim and cannot use it, even before getting out of the starting gate. The problem seem to center around superuser permission. But here are my experiences.
1. You can't use Lupus GB. This will result in bootloops. Changed to Night Elf v10 Experimental (couldn't find v 10.1 Experimental) and the phone booted off just fine.
2. The lightness and speed of the ROM was just great. The feel of this ROM is the best of any other ROM I've tried. This is exactly the kind of ROM I want.
3. Tried to update the Supeuser binary. But it kept telling me that "Superuser was denied superuser permission" no matter how many times I tried. Installed SuperSU through CWM (this automatically removes Superuser). But when I tried to enter SuperSU the app froze. I tried this many times. Did a full wipe and installed Xperia Slim again. After the settling in period I went into Settings -> Applications and Force Closed Superuser and Cleared Data. Rebooted. Now I could update the binary.
4. Before installing all my usual apps directly from the Play Store I will always install Link2SD first. I have a 1GB Ext4 partition for it. All my apps, when installed, will roughly take up over 600MB. But Link2SD could not mount the script saying that "Root access was denied", again and again. So I uninstalled Link2SD and installed S2E. But when I checked the storage status in S2E I found that the Ext4 partition could not be mounted. Maybe it cannot recognize Ext4 partitions.
5. There was nothing else I could do. So I restored a nandroid backup I made before installing Xperia Slim.
I really like the feel of this ROM and would like to be able to use it. But I need to get Link2SD working first. Please help. :crying:

Try this:
Format everything (data.system.cache.valvik)
Flash ROM > Patch > Libs
Reboot
Check root status
If root fails flash this:
http://downloads.noshufou.netdna-cdn.com/superuser/Superuser-3.2-RC3-arm-signed.zip
That will fix root I will try to fix this in v1.1 - I can't help bugs because my phone is broken so its very hard to test.

I already flashed BB 77 through Flashtool before installing Xperia Slim. I think the ROM might have a problem recognizing Ext 4 partitions. When you release v1.1 could you just check if Link2SD will work. Thank you.
This is the ROM I've been hoping for. I'd gladly be your tester if you don't have a Neo V. Let me know.
Does it have xloud and bavaria engine?
And what about the free space and ram.
Thanks for the pure GB, I have enough of cm

Thank you. That was quick. Downloading now. Is there a Neo V patch? Or, v2 does not need one?
Will wait for your advice before installing.
EDIT
Just read your OP again and noticed there is an Aroma Installer. Guess I can choose Neo V from there. Will install now and let you know how it goes. Thanks again.

thanks alot....i will surely fix the tethering asap
thanks fr trying my ROM...please post feedback
My first mpressions on your rom are than i feel inspired with the framework and the themes,he wallpaper choose in all themes are good and brilliant.
My suggestions for next rom are if you can put aroma installer and put elements how cybershot 5.7.2 is really good ( in my old rom ) and update your build.prop with the last JDWalker 1.9 build.prop seems amazing brilliant results. If you can put a choose in aroma for governors, maybe can add more stability and battery friendly ( deppend on own chroose.
SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH... IM SPANISH USER NOT ENGLISH XD

Hehe will try it and report any bug or problem with it. For fix all in next versions
Just a couple of hints:
For GPS issues:
I've managed to get a temp solution bypassing sony ericsson supl server. Goes like this:
Change your gps.conf file, in SUPL_HOST=supl.sonyericsson.com > SUPL_HOST=supl.vodafone.com
and change your cacert.txt file in /etc/suplcert/ by my attachment.
About joining the 2 files, if you use linux, you can join them manually by:
cat FILEONE.001 FILETWO.002 > JOINFILE.ZIP
easy huh?
BTW: just downloaded this ROM, but i'm trying a little more another. In about a week or so I'll post a review here

"Error occurred during tethering" appears whenever tethering is put on with data off.
So, IMO there's nothing to fix unless you just want the notification to not appear. Tethering works anyway.

FIRST DEVELOPING SKILL GAINED BY WATCHING FERA WORK
Did it boot?
FeraVolt said:
Wusup guys. Me again. This time with some crazy thing - CM12 for x10. I don't have device on hands so I can't even tell you if it''s booting. Don't expect that anything will work on this build. Just be happy if it boots and provide logcat anyhow. I barely compiled this thing dealing with tonns of errors..starting over again and again..so this pre-alpha's main aim is - to boot. Please test and report.
Download here
no mirrors please..
Extract & flash .ftf from zip. then flash rom (if recovery is working ) but better flash rom first using CWM 6 then flash provided ftf..just in case nothing will work. make sure you will be able to restore your x10 from hell state UB only.
This is RAW build..mostly based on Tof's work..with 3.0.8 kernel.. (Thanks bud )
Finally..hit thanks button and feed me a juicy burger if this will boot :fingers-crossed: :good:

Wow Fera, you have excelled yourself here! I am so going to try this!!
Just tried flashing it and it only seems to flash the kernel (Flashtool flashes it really quickly, a couple of seconds, it would be much longer if it was the entire ROM flashing) Am I doing something wrong?

ok. cm12 kernel don't have recovery access..use any kernel with cwm6 to flash rom..then pull out battery and flash cm12 kernel to boot new rom.
Tried as you mentioned several times.
Downloaded rom file just provide ROM FILE WITHOUT ANY EXTENTION. just a file. When i rename it as zip, cwm says cannot open. When i rename as RAR, cwm cannot find file. Plz provide proper ROM.ZIP file if you can

Hi again Mate i keep getting error's trying to download.
It keeps redirecting to register and pay for download?
The free download is currently not available - Please try again later! Premium account users are not affected by this temporary limitation.
Ok I tried internet explore to download and it is now downloading. So it must of been my ad-blocker on chrome stopping it? It say's it will take approx 3 hour's. I'll try to reflash when it's finished.
Thank you
Tried to install this. Installed the rom first and then flashed the kernel. It gets stuck at the bootlogo. It doesn't spin like Kernel v27 does. I couldn't get logcat to connect to my phone so nog logs sadly
~Aeny
ROM and Kernel install without problems, however as above, the boot process hangs on the FeraLab logo. (waited over 10mins)
No dmesg available at this boot stage.
@FeraVolt maybe you should place /system on sd. Maybe you should check lx cm12 sources , they did the same. just an ext4 partition on sd must be made on user's side

Tried it today, if you install gapps the blur stops.
The rom is working quite well for what I was expecting.
It is a too laggy, process "com.android.phone" FC's and the notification bar freezes, you need to restart the phone. No reboots.
Wifi, bluetooth, gps, accelerometer, camera (8Mpx, video low), are all working.
This is a great first version of what could be a great rom for our old X10...
Thank you Fera!

C5 ultra optimization

SO since we have successfully rooted and unlocked the phone
its time to finally optimize the performance and user experience for the phone
so post your suggestions,experiments or tweaks you already know .
so starting off first will obviously be the removal of stock apps and also the crashmonitor.apk
i also use setCPU for screenOFF and gaming profiling and governor switching
I still am not sure which i/o works best, cfq or any else so suggestions are welcome
i am trying some tweaks to so will update soon
CHEERS !
Greenify for battery optimization!
Also Flashing Xposed and running several mods. I highly recommend Apps Ops Xposed. You can manually select any apps/system apps and prevent them from causing wake locks/alarms and draining battery...
Hey i tried to use a custom bootanimation .. Replaced the file .. Gave permissions.. But it doesn't work...
So can anyone upload the stock bootanimation.. Or any working one if anyone has modified it?
well did remove the crash monitor.apk doesn't break the phone?

It sticks for me... Try reflashing and repeating the steps?

Just uncheck the wipe user data option in flashtool ! Peace !
And I'll check it out too for my device..

Well it's not better than Android M but still alot fixes can be expected from android 5.0 to 5.1

Me too. I'm with version 5.0, rooted and will not bother updating until Marshmallow 6.0 is released & ROOTED!
Until then I'd rather have 5.0 rooted than 5.1 unrooted. I have many apps requiring root and also use Xposed. I cannot live without root.
