Its a CM7 feature. Don't you like it? Anyways you can always turn it off from the cynogenmod settings.void forever does not hav the settings by default so you must flash the settings first via the proper zip which you can find in the void forever post

bro i have backed up my stock rom as clockwormod before flasing...m i rite??
but do i have to unroot the phone etc etc before availing the warranty??
If you have a backup then you can restore it to get back to stock(obv). And it is recommended you unroot before taking it to warranty services. Some may allow it, others may not.

[ROM] [GSM] [PORT] - iPlay OS v2- JoyOS 1.2.2 based on CM7.2

JoyOS 1.2.2
Ultimate iPhone look
A few weeks ago I got a request for this rom, so I just ported it and uploaded it for everyone here.
If there are any problems, questions, requests or bugs please tell post and I will help the best I can.
V2 has not been tested by me yet! So please if you find any problems, post here and I will fix them as soon as I can!
things I've changed:
Code:
V2
Cleaned up
Replaced and updated some gapps
Changed dalvik heap size from 64 to 32 (Please tell me what's best for you performance wise)
Uploaded Lite version
Removed following apps from Lite version:
CarHomeGoogle.apk
CMParts.apk
CMScreenshot.apk
com.google.android.voicesearch.apk
GenieWidget.apk
GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
JOYCalculator.apk
JOYEmail.apk
JOYLog.apk
JOYNote.apk
JOYSoundrecorder.apk
LatinIMETutorial.apk
LiveWallPaperPicker.apk
PicoTts.apk
Protips.apk
QuickSearchBox.apk
Setupwizard.apk
Talk.apk
ThemeChooser.apk
ThemeManager.apk
TtsService.apk
VisualizationWallpapers.apk
V1
removed some old apps
replaced the stock joyos launcher with Espier launcher (more smooth and more iPhone like)
replaced the boot image
added some build.prop tweaks
Overall performance is great and stable, just like CM7.2
Standard installation instructions:
Do the same stuff as with CM7.2
Complete noob's installation instructions:
0. FIRST OF ALL CHECK IF YOUR PHONE IS A GSM (R800i) PHONE! If you live in America/Canada, it most probably isn't! Also check if your bootloader is already unlocked, if it's not, go here
1. Download Flashtool from here (Make sure you also install the correct drivers!)
2. Download the stock .62 baseband FTF from here
3. Load it into Flashtool
4. Put your device in flash mode when asked (Hold BACK while connecting to USB)
5. Wait for it to finish
6. Get fastboot from here and unpack it to a convenient location (Again, make sure your drivers are OK!)
7. Click the download link below here and open the PLOYOS.zip and copy the boot.img you can find in there into the fastboot folder
8. Shift right-click on the blank background of the folder (Have nothing selected) and click open command window here (or whatever that is in your system language)
9. Type
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
and wait for it to finish flashing
10. Then boot up your phone and press the volume down key when the led in your power button gets lit
11. In recovery navigate with the volume keys to data/factory reset, then confirm with the home button (or search, not sure) then do the same thing but select cache, and then move to advanced and in there choose wipe dalvik cache
12. Go back and choose mounts and storage>mount sdcard
13. Plug in your USB and copy the iPlayOS.zip / PLOYOS.zip to your SD card
14. Go back all the way and choose Install zip from SD Card
15. Look for the iPlayOS.zip / PLOYOS.zip and wait for it to finish installing
16. Reboot, and all should work now! If it doesn't, you have either done something wrong or your phone isn't a GSM Xperia Play
I hope that is a clear enough guide ! At least I don't have to explain anything about that now (I hope)
Download links:
Old
PLOYOS v1 (original)
New
iPlay OS v2 Full
iPlay OS v2 Lite version (To see wich apps I removed refer to the changelog above)
'OMG YOU DELETED THIS AND THAT APP THAT I REALY NEED'
Don't sweat, just download either the full version, or both the lite and full version,
open them both up in winrar, navigate both to system/app and just drag the apps that you realy need from the full version to the light version.
thanks to
ijustintouch for the awesome boot animation

Make sure you got a GSM device (R800i)
If you live in America, you probably don't have one.
If you do have a GSM device, try a fresh install with the stock 62 firmware, flash the boot.img included in the ployos.zip in fastboot, and do a full factory reset before flashing just to be sure ( wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, advanced>wipe dalvik cache)

Hmm thats strange... I don't have any problems at all and get the same screen on first boot. You say cm7.2 also doesn't work? Maybe try following all instructions to the letter or asking in the FXP cm7.2 thread I know it shouldn't be a problem with this rom because it does work for me and others

[RECOVERY] [THEME]TWRP & Dual Recovery

As some of you might know ive been working lately on porting TWRP to our device, and now, after many hours work, I can finally release it to the public.
GENERAL
Team Win Recovery Project 2.3, or twrp2 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added a lot of our own features. It’s a fully touch driven user interface – no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
http://teamw.in/project/twrp2
INFORMATION
There are 2 version:
- Flykernel 0.8 with only TWRP (v 2.3.2.3)
- Flykernel 0.8 with both TWRP (v 2.3.2.3) and CWM (v 6.1.0.9).
I also made a custom theme, see Download and Usage.
Its named: 'This is black and white'. As the name says its a black and white minimal theme.
INSTALLATION
- Make sure you are on a FXP based jellybean rom.
- Choose one of the the two images
- Flash them with fastboot : fastboot flash boot IMAGENAME.img
- You will also need the wifi modules of flykernel (0.8fix): http://www.mediafire.com/?16ytgk56ioiko6z
USAGE
- TWRP only recovery:
Use volume down when home led is pink
- CWM / TWRP dual:
Use volume down for CWM when home led is pink
Use power button for TWRP when home led is pink
- Custom TWRP theme:
Place the ui.zip (from download folder mediafire) in /sdcard/TWRP/theme
DOWNLOAD
http://www.mediafire.com/?lcdana76k8ews
BUGS
As far as I know and is tested there are 2 bugs:
- Mount USB Storage in TWRP
- Reboot to recovery (boot from recovery and rom)
Please report bugs if you find them.
Much work has gone in to this, so I would appreciate a Thanks or a donation
Also I want to give credit to Championswimmer for providing the base dualrecovery ramdisk.
Congrats bro you are ****ing awasome:beer:

My id10t corporate network drops img files, cannot download. I'll check it out when I'm home. Thanks! :highfive:
EDIT: Great Stuff! Successfully flashed dual, booted into both with no problem. Then I wiped and installed PACv18 with all my extras in one go by queueing the zip files. Rebooted the phone, all 100%
One thing I did notice: the time shown in TWRP was not my local time, I have GMT +2, where the time that was displayed was UMT -6 (Houston, Chicago those places) I think it's CST (not sure)
I did not attempt a backup/restore operation yet, but wiping flashing, queueing woks 100%
Good Job thomas !!

Just to clarify: So, if you were not on fly before, you need to flash WiFi modules from flykernel thread? I was on FlyKernel and WiFi still works like a charm

Yes thats correct (will update OP). Because sony devices dont have a seperate recovery partition, it needs to be embedded with the kernel.

do i need to wipe anything after install new kernel??
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did not need to. I only wiped after successful boot to test if wipe and flashing works ok
To clarify a Android memory management issue (which I was unclear on) for others;
Both TWRP and TWRP/ CWM recoveries in the new kernel image increase the size of the files to be flashed into the boot sector (TWRP = 6.8MB, TWRP/ CWM = 8.3MB), FlyKernel 0.8 including CWM is only 5.3MB.
If a user is using FXP150 stock ROM build with the Xperia Keyboard flashed as well the /system folder is virtually full (974kB free only). Don't let that worry you! The boot sector that the new kernel image files (including recoveries) occupies is completely separate to the /system ROM part of the device and it will fit!!
This is fantastic, didn't know TWRP was miles ahead of CWM in terms of user friendliness.
Can you share your sources please? I want to port TWRP on my Xperia Mini
Just extract boot image
