So the problem is not the rom.It is the not fully functional CWM.If you still want to flash my rom, flash my kernel first (or another custom kernel with CWM), which is allready uploaded in the same section of xda.

hi

Can you please tell me how to add ICS transition animation in stock home launcher ?

Cause i have arc launcher and i don't want to replace it with stock Sony sk17i launcher

Please help me with this :-)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
I do not think that the difference will be noticeable.

Framework-res.apk is the apk responsible for most of the drawables and animations of your rom.

So, if you cannot change this file, you will not be able to have a new battery icon for example...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
I believe that a proper installation must be a clean installation.So, in my opinion it is necessary to wipe user data and system partition, if you want to install a new rom.What you ask, can be done but may lead to other major problems...

So , i do not think it is actually the right option...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
The most possible to happen if you install this rom on mini, is that the phone will be bricked...

DO NOT INSTALL THIS ROM ON MINI.

I do not own a mini, so it would be very difficult to run the required tests.

It is not totally out of the question to port this rom to mini, but not for now.Sorry...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
About swipe notifications, it will take me more than two hours to achieve it because i have never tried it in the past.I will have to do everything from scratch.It is a nice idea though, and i will give it a shot maybe in some future versions.

ICS transitions have nothing to do with your launcher, but with your framework.

after rom installation and factory wipe, Im stuck at the white sony ericsson letters on black background and the phone doenst react any more (only thing I can do is to remove battery to power off or flash again via flashtool).

I powered off after factory wipe and waited 30 seconds - 1 minute but it didnt help.

are there any other requirements to install this rom I need to know about? I tried to install with stock android 2.3.3 / firmware after I installed clockworkmod recovery.

do I maybe have to update to stock 2.3.4 & the corresponding kernel update before I can install this rom?

if so, would be nice if you could add those information to the OP
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
The problem in your case is probably the kernel.

Follow this steps to be sure...

Install the official 0.58 android 2.3.4 firmware

Install my kernel (found on the third page of this post), or KrSH kernel, or rage kernel.(all of the three work fine with this rom)

Install hybrom using CWM

Make a full data-wipe

Reboot

If the problem persists, please let me know...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] caer_ayu:
hi ..may know how did you tweak the video recording and imaging for better quality ..? ..i want to try it on my mini ..:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] neroyoung:
The link you provided didn't helped that much but thanks for it

Can you please tell me how to modify these system files ?

Cause i want to do following things without loosing my Current look of SystemUI,Framework and Home apk files

1] Swipe Notification

2] ICS App Drawer And ICS Animations (Thats you have added in v6 but i don't know how to get them in my Arc Launcher)

3] Arc No Dock Home launcher (I have Dock i want to make it transperent)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
thanks, will try.

are there actually any disadvantages of installing a custom kernel, e.g. when it comes to updating to the next regular firmware version? would this still work without problems?

edit: is it actually normal that the update function of my phone thinks Im up to date with 2.3.3? is this maybe due to the CWM modifications? Had to update using SEUS.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
It depends on the kernel you install.Some kernels have overcklocking (advantage)

but they drain the battery (disadvantage).

My kernel works exactly like the stock kernel.(No overclocking and no battery drain)

SEUS reads the bulid.prop file and decides if your phone has an update or not.The kernel or CWM, has nothing to do with it.It is also possible that there isn't any official update to 2.3.4 for your phone.It depends from the country and the operator as well.

So go on and flash a custom kernel...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
can I still reinstall the stock fonts after I have this rom running?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Yes, you can...

There are CWM flashable zips with the stock fonts uploaded on the first page of this post.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
it looks like I sometimes have small wifi problems. after a while it seems to turn itself off without that the wifi icon or the wifi activation setting changes. I need to deactivate and to activate it to have it work again.

there are few places at my house which have a really bad connection, in some rooms there is none. so maybe it has something to do with the wifi not being active for some time, then it sets itself to some kind of sleep? dont know how it is when theres a good wifi connection all the time, though, if it then will be the same or not.

maybe it also has to do with some of the tweaks of the roms or also with the custom kernel?

Im not really sure, but maybe this also happened with the stock firmware sometimes. not sure if more or less often.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
This is not a bug.It is a tweak.This tweak aims to reduce battery drain.The kernel (at least my kernel) does not affect this feature.If you want to improve your connection state (but your battery will discharge more quickly) you can reduce the wpa.suplificant value in the build.prop file located in the root directory of your file system.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] IMRAND:
hi bbooff,

Can you please update your kernel with two way call recording patch cause iam

on KRsH kernel only for call recording reason & it drains battery alot.

I want to use your kernel so please update with this request.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
what exactly is the tweak, that the connection state gets "worse", meaning that the wifi range is not as much as before or something like that? or is the tweak that it automatically turns itself off after a while of not receiving a wifi connection?

in any case, I guess I'd rather have it working as good as possible in every situation, because I have a button on my schreen to deactivate wifi as soon as I dont need it. but when I activate it, I simply want it to work as good as possible.

is the wpa.suplificant value the only thing which got tweaked compared to the original version? what is the default value?

do you mean this line located under power saves: wifi.supplicant_scan_interval=1200 ? and whats value of measurement here 1200 of what? seconds?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
The tweak aims to reduce battery drain, by searching for a connection less often.It is not the only tweak that affects the wi-fi state.if you

don't like it, replace the build.prop file with the stock one.

Sorry...

No more information.

I can't give you everything served on a plate.If you type "tweaks" in the search box of xda, many pages about tweaks will be displayed.The aim of this post is not to explain how the tweaks work.This is the purpose of other posts.

P.S. Yes.That is the line i meant.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
It is not in my plans to update this kernel.It will be obsolete in two or three months, due to the release of ICS.I will try to include this In my kernel for ICS.

Still it is not totally out of the question though...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] djarnop:
Gonna flash it in 2 minutes, downloading atm :D:D

Thanks for update.

Link2SD not working in v6, used to work in v4, unable to mount sd exe,

net tweak works, speed improved, you should try not to exclude it in future releases.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] IMRAND:
On every reboot my installed apps disappear

what's the problem, please reply.

xperia mini pro .58
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
You do not need to use link2sd, because if you want to move your apps to sd without formating your sd with an ext partition, you can use the native gingerbread app for this.If you want to move your apps to ext, use the preinstalled a2sdgui app for this.

Anyway i have just downloaded link2sd from the market and tested it with a card without ext partition and worked fine.

I haven't tested it with a card with an ext partition.There is no point doing that since you have a2sd preinstalled.There is maybe a conflict between those two apps.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
What is the problem exactly?

Have you formated your sd card with an ext partition?

Your apps disappear after they are transfered to your ext partition using a2sd?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] IMRAND:
I was on your hybrom v5 ROM everything worked perfect.

after installing v6 it booted & worked well, I installed my remaining apps &

all apps worked fine.

Than I rebooted the device I see all apps disappeared only your rom apps are there.

I think app2sd is not working, I switched off the app2sd & installed all apps again, rebooted again now everything is working fine.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
What exactly did you do to switch off app2sd?

And please tell me if you have an ext partition on you sd.

A2sd worked fine with my device.

Furthermore, even if you uninstall a2sd app the scripts responsible for transfering apps to your sd are not uninstalled.They are still there...

Your problem must be something else...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] IMRAND:
There is this a2sdgui in your rom I clicked it, switched off the first option

Than went to application manger & uninstalled my apps did a reboot.

Again installed my apps in internal memory which is working fine now but as you said sd ext I had Done this once 3months ago when I had lg optimus one (Iams using the same micro sd card) but I don't remember whether its working or no.

Tell is there any problem now with the above method done.

Please reply.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
There is no problem with the method above.Everything works fine as you mentioned after all.

But there is also no problem with the a2sdgui app.It works fine either you have an ext partition in your card either you don't.BUT, if you do not have an ext partition in your sd, it is better to disable this option in a2sdgui app because there isn't any ext partition to install the apps.This must have been what confused your device...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] IMRAND:
Yes that's why I have disabled the a2sdgui app.

I will try to partition sd ext again some time later & try to enable a2sdgui app

lets see if it works. (It shud work)

But for the moment everything is working fine.

Thank you so much for this rom & tweaks, your hard work is really appreciated.

Thanks again.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
how about adding this mod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1417318 to your rom?

according to your description you already have something for smoother scrolling, but I noticed it was definately better after I installed this mod onto your v6 rom.

having the additional 15 steps of tweaking the audio volume for media is nice as well, especially when using headphones.

well just a suggestion
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
Noob question, how can I enable the launcher startup dialogue again after I set one of the two launchers as default?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications ->All

Find the launcher that is currently set as default.

Tap it and then tap "clear defaults"

Next time you press your home button, the wanted dialogue will appear...

according to the su binary updater, its not possible to update to v3.0.3.2 because of md5sum check failure. is this maybe because of this cutom rom or the installed custon kernel?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
I have just updated the su binary in hybrom v7(which is being uploaded right now).

Everything was fine.

Between v6 and v7 there wasn't any change that could affect the update procedure of the su binary file.So, even in v6 it must be something that you have installed seperately.This is not a fault of hybrom.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Hybrom v7 just uploaded.

More ICS and audio enhancements...

Everybody check it out!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] djarnop:
Gonna try it tommorow. Looks good :).

off topic, mij screen cracked last night, glass only and goes from left under to right op.

glass still is feeling smooth but looks ****.

googled new glass and cheepest i could find was 120 euro's??

Thats glass + lcd + more... But i cannot find glass alone ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
I do not have the slightest idea about that, but it's too bad your screen broke...

I hope you find a stand alone glass soon...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] djarnop:
Its only One line from corner to corner and actaully smooth. Yes and if not i wait for price lowering :)

Google earth update, not compatible according to market
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chrisbymoningka:
Shutdown the device after the installation is complete and after the data wipe.

which one the first? wipe after installation is complete or before we installed your ROM?

because in my device always stuck at boot logo if i do full wipe before or after installation..

but i've tried in many times full wipe after installation make the device stuck at the boot logo...

Btw, thanks for the new version.. :D

You work is so amazing my friend :D :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Google earth is not released on the market.That's why you cannot update.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Install

Make a full wipe

Shutdown and wait for about 10sec
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chrisbymoningka:
i've do the following steps by your guide..

but still have the same problem stuck at the boot logo screen..

but i've solve my problem,

full wipe >> install >> full wipe again >> shutdown ( when i power it on it stuck at boot logo)

then i tried this step

full wipe >> install >> reboot (not stuck)

thanks for the v7 bbooff,

nice to include the brightness in notification panel and the Bass enhancer

can we ask for a 'compact carier name' in notification panel? I think this is pretty good
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
What exactly do you mean by "compact"?

Do you mean smaller font size?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] akshyat:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chrisbymoningka:

Thanks for reporting the bug.It is in my plans to replace ics launcher with a better (ics) launcher in v8.I am running tests at the moment.Be patient and everything will be solved.Maybe,even with a flashable update zip.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] aMReY:
same situation/problem too~ my phone stuck/hang after install the rom (sony ericsson with black screen, no logo)

try install>>wipe>>reboot = same (stuck at sony ericsson with black screen, no logo)

try wipe>>install>>off>>on = same (stuck at sony ericsson with black screen, no logo)

I can't enter to CMW, need to flash firmware .58.ftf via flashtool

I tried more than 4 times, the result is same (stuck at sony ericsson with black screen, no logo)

please help..

Dial *#*#7378423#*#*
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
I can't really understand what your problem is, but i am trying to find a permanent solution...

Try this:

wipe->install->wipe->reboot

Could you tell me your baseband version also?

It is displayed in settings->about phone.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Thunderbolt8:
can I simply install the new rom ontop of all my apps I have already installed? would like to upgrade, but not to reinstall & reconfigure all other stuff again.

does this work fine or does it work, but its not recommended, because of some registry stuff missing (to put it into terms of windows, dont know how linux works)?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
It works but it is not recommended.I don't know what changes you have done on your system, and i cannot guarantee that everything will run flawlessly...

(Why don't you make a backup of your apps using app backup and restore from the market before you make the clean installation?You can also backup adw launcher's configuration and your desktop configuration using adw settings menu)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chrisbymoningka:
Then try this step..

First you must full wipe >> wipe dalvik cache >> install >> full wipe again >> shutdown..

Then power it On..

Go to CWM again

Do full wipe >> install >> and reboot..

Hopefully work On your device.. ;)

(In this case you must install this ROM twice)

Edit: i'm using Rage Kernel for this ROM
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] salzzz:
what I mean is that the carrier name is in the same part as the "no notifications" text

actually I saw this setting from the CM rom
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] djarnop:
Has no hurry, still fully functional with 3 launchers x).

Personally I remove these apps always with titanium backup, you're can decide ofcourse if you want to strip them too :

Music Likers

google search

speech searching (my tranlation x))

Extension for karaoke

Extenion for youtube

Youtube

Talk

Games and applications

Bedrijfcetrum(busniss centrum ?)

Music and fideo's, has facebook logo in it small but still uploads fine on FB with FB app.

Update center

Camera 3

Support

Email

Gmail

Crashmonitor

Maps

Setup guide

Those I personally remove, have them backupped filter on backup 5 sec delete.

Takes no effort once backed up, but maybe idea to strip some useless stuff.

Don't think anyone who flashes custom rom's uses update centrum for example.

And personally its barely impossible to get 3D working succesfully for me x)

Crashmonitor, i dont want crash reports sent

Music and video's, wtf never saw it and FB works perfect.

Setup guide, newbs ?

Dunno, just giving feedback on my personal opionion (if it matters xD)

Really thank you for all you're work so far anyway !

Suggestion, maybe add 4shared in you're rom, since warez is not allowed this is prolly what will be downloaded for most anyways ?

I prefer flashlight tool from Rom 6 if you want to know, uninstalled this one (other more functions).

Talk to much, see what u do with it.

Thanks!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] aMReY:
here u go

thanks for your fast response~

yeah i tried

1st-wipe>>install>>wipe>>reboot

2nd-install>>wipe>>reboot

3rd-wipe>>install>>off.10sec>>on

result - after installing, my phone stuck at sony ericsson boot.

once stuck, I can't access to CWM. So I flashing firmware .ftf with flashtool.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] chrisbymoningka:
i recommend you to try the Rage Kernel for this ROM..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Everybody's opinion is very important.I need you guys to tell me your point of view on every issue regarding this rom.You are right about many apps you have mentioned.

I will see what i can do about it in v8.

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Your configuration is exactly he same as mine.I really can't find what is wrong.

BUT, let's give it another try.

1.Flash the ofiicial 0.58 firmware using flashtool.v (Please use flashtool and not another flashin software)

Reboot

2.Flash a custom kernel with CWM using fastboot.

Reboot

3.Enter CWM

4.Wipe data/factory reset

5.Wipe cache partition.

6.Go to advanced menu.

7.Wipe Dalvik cache.

8.Wipe battery stats.

Reboot.

9.Enter CWM.

10.Go to Mounts and Storage.

11.Format /cache

12.Format /data

13.Format /system

14.Install Hybrom v7

15.Reboot in CWM.

16. Repeat steps 4 to 11.

17. Reboot.(Hopefully in hybrom v7...)

GOOD LUCK!

What kernel are you on?

Did you have similar problems with other versions too?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] vincenzo697:
first time happens, i am using DuMOHsmols Rage Kernel v2. only with this rom
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] :
Try reinstalling the rom.Do the full data wipe, the dalivik wipe and the cache wipe, before you install the rom.If there is no result, flash another kernel and retry.

There were no changes since v5 that could affect calling procedure.

That's why i suggest that you reinstall v7 before you do anything else...
