The ROM was working like charm for the past two days but I've noticed today that it reboots / restart every time the bluetooth attempts to connect to my headset :-( anybody suffered the same?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] cases99:
Im having a problem with GPS lock. I've tried using GPS status to recalibrate, cleared GPS data nothing works. The only other thing I find in the forums is to flash the radio. But I have the recommended radio. Any ideas?

Radio version n_01.77.30p
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gh123man:
Ill test when i get the chance and get back to you.

ill try to test gps when i get a chance as well.

@EVERYONE

I am currently busy studying for some tests and working on some Labs for school. As soon as i have free time I will do my best to answer all questions. I encourage everyone to help each-other if you are able to.

also as another note. most issues may be caused because of cyanogenmod issues. Im going to check for repo updates and build another version if there are any as soon as i can.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] oshizzle1991:
This has become my daily driver since it was released. Great work!
[Atrix 4G Android Development] drpratik:
Thanks a ton.

I really appreciate your help.

Thank you .
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gh123man:
okay i tested gps on my walk to class today. I have no issues at all. got a clean lock in 20 seconds after never using the gps since flash. I would try another radio unless someone has a better suggestion. (I dont remember what radio i have, its been ages since i updated it. everything always worked so i never bothered.)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] gh123man:
i paired it with my Tablet and transferred a picture. no issues. only thing i can think of is that if you used titanium backup you could have restored some Bluetooth configuration that it didn't like. but that's a stretch. If i could suggest anything, try wiping all the caches in recovery. anyone else have any ideas? it could also be cm7... im going to try to update the rom soon.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meandmy:
Hi there,

i want to code an app that reads sound from the mic and displays its freqs.

so i worte a soundrader (thread) an a fft class and .. the fft class is to slow

(i just tested it in the emu)

should i write the fft in c or what else ca i do ?

thanks !
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Metastable:
Anything on the emulator will be extremely slow. it's probably always better to use a phone/tablet to do development on.

That being said, if you look into the live wallpapers that come with Android, specially the music visualizing ones, you can get an idea of how they do it. From there you could add in code to grab the mic (something i also need to do =] )

Darkforest ROM 3.1.0

Turn your R800i into an Xperia S with Darkforest ROM 3.1.0 GSM​

Version 3.1.0 is GSM only and if you install on an R800x you will lose all phone functionality.

Download 3.1.0: http://icxperia.com/keiran/dfr3/DFRGSM3.1.0.zip or via DFR OTA :)

3.1.0 Changelog:

Darkforest ROM 3.1.0 Changelog

- Using 4.0.2.A.0.64 base
- Xperia S themed by FlamEmo - framework-res.apk, SemcGenericUxpRes.apk, SemcSettings.apk
- Disabled ALS due to themed Settings app not showing disable auto brigtness option
- Added Xperia S Applications:
Alarms
Browser
Calculator
Calendar
Clock
Contacts
Email
Gallery
Games & apps (facebook)
Messaging
Music & videos (facebook)
Music Player
Phone

Xperia S Themes (work like existing themes)
Xperia S Widgets
Xperia S Home
- Left all stock widgets there (eg. old timescape) incase people still like to use them.
- Added Xperia ICS Beta Boot Animation
- Left Update center for people on locked b
- Added support for New Darkforest OTA application with real updating
- Added Darkforest Tweak app for tweaking your device on the go
- Updated to latest AROMA installer, using ICS theme in installer

Version 3.1.0 is in testing, and is using Xperia S applications, some issues are:

Setup Wizard needs either replacing or resizing
Timescape needs resizing, although I think it looks fine
There is a bug in the smart dialer, the * button, a bit of it doesn't show, this doesn't affect functionality.

If you like my work and you would like to help me save towards a university fund, please donate here: http://xdaforums.com/donatetome.php?u=4344506

If you are a CDMA user, due to old framework, some of the mods I have applied to the GSM version will not work on the CDMA version. If anyone manages to get any of the Xperia S applications running on the CDMA ROM, please tell me which ones, as I don't have a device for myself.

Download for CDMA & GSM 3.0.5: http://darkforestgroup.com/forum/index.php/topic,11307.0.html

I still pressed the Thanks-Button for your incredible work mate. Young devs have to be supported :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
The reason I do all this is because we are a small community and Sony Ericsson don't attract big developers such as LeeDrOiD and mike1986, so its easier to get to learn about people here. In the other sections I only have a few friends, here I have many :)

Plus, developing for the R800x is cool because there is nothing better than one upping Verizon lol

Keiran
[Xperia Play Android Development] antEris:
Keiran, you rock man.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Thanks,

Going to try to push for an early beta tomorrow for CDMA.

Also going to include options on the aroma Rom installer such as applying themes :)

I already have it set up for GSM, and the script is set up for CDMA, I just need to merge some CDMA files :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] NeWCuLTKiNG:
CDMA roms are that much different? Only difference is radio right? I don't get why they have to make it so difficult. Good luck hope you cdma guys get to join the fun. Looking forward to dfr3 thanks
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
I'll gladly take a 2.3.4 ROM with 4.0.2.A.0.62 (as alternate to the 2.3.3s & 2.3.7s)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Magnumutz:
Keiran, i have to say, from a lurker's point of view, you are awesome!

When i first saw the name of the thread i was like "Is he insane? Does he have the time?"

But i'm glad to know that you're not, and you're doing it for both us GSM and CDMA.

Kudos!
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Just thought I would mention that the only difference between the GSM and CDMA seems to be a few libs and a few build.prop edits :)

WOO! Thanks meter 500! Thanks!
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Okay, so maybe it isn't as simple as I thought. But I am still working on it, and should have something done by today.

Even if I can't get the 2.3.4 ported to the R800x, I can do something else, but thats only if, I probably will be able to do something.

Can someone get me an R800x /system dump?
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
Best possible way to to do this (on your own) is get the original ftf, extract everything from it as a zip, use sin2img to convert the system.sin file to system.img & then use unyaffs to extract the /system folder from the system.img.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
cheers.

might have to ship the CDMA version with 2.3.3, because I have been reading around and it has been said that the .145 kernel and rom are the only ones compatible with both GSM and CDMA :(

But still, I can try and get you some stuff for it, if I have to use the .145 as a base.

Keiran

Edit:

Seems that the 2.3.3 verizon stuff isn't quite compatible with the 2.3.4 stuff, either that or I just can't get it right...

Going to try a .145 base android 2.3.3 for the CDMA model, sorry peeps, shouldn't have got your hopes up..

But still, it is another ROM :) Maybe I can make some themes for it too, to help drown your sorrows? :D
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Right, so someone is VERY determined to stop me from even creating a 2.3.3 version, because, I can not find the 2.3.3 R 3.0.1.A.0.145 FTF anywhere....

I was thinking, maybe I could base my version of this ROM on sharks UK rom? Because I am about to do what he did anyway :)

Ideas?

Keiran
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
I'll get the link for you.

I think its this one...

[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Thanks, but I don't think that shark will mind as long as I state that I used his ROM as a base for the CDMA version, to make up for it I will also add some themes too :)

Edit. nvm, got the FTF now :)

Edit2:

Ooh ****....

crapped up my updater-script and it backed out right in the middle of flashing /system, so I adb shelled and cd'ed into system then did rm -r / , I forgot that / stands for root and not the directory that you are currently in, luckily, I only had my sdcard and my system mounted, my SD needed a good format anyway and I was going to format my sys to install the rom.

thank god for not mounting data partitions :O

Keiran
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
Glad you got it. Shark added a few things to the mix, so a fresh image would be best I think.
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Yeah.

Admittedly, I've copied some of his Verizon needed stuff, to save me from extracting it all from an R800x FTF :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CrimsonKnight13:
Did you use the pure UK ROM or the VZW infused version to get that stuff from?
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
The one in the first post on his topic :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Can you test in about an hour? :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Pinesal:
So, I'm dumb. I have a CDMA xperia play and accidently wiped my system partition. Yes, I know.

I have adb access. Can someone point me in the right direction for fixing it? I made a nandroid backup but I can't get into recovery.
[Xperia Play Android Development] paxChristos:
Flash a firmware using Wotan server or flashtool (to get completely back to stock) or if you feel comfortable with Fastboot, fastboot -i 0x0fce flash system system.img (if you have a system.img lying around)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Pinesal:
Thanks. I ended up using flashtool and I am back up.

Hey guys, I'm rooted and just installed CWM 5, but I think my bootloader is locked (I bought it SIM free and all the configuration info says 0 so I have no idea)

My question is, what are the steps I need to do to install this ROM on a locked bootloader? (I don't want to mess around with kernals etc and would prefer to stay on Stock-based) And what would I need to do whenever updates (e.g Darkforest 3.0.6) come out.

Thanks in advance!
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
For updates, just flash over the top, and if you have a locked bootloader, do not wipe system or data and of course reinstall cwm again after :)

Partitioned SD-Card

Mounted and dropped WiFi Modules + ROM on Card

Flashed Modules

Flashed ROM and installed using Aroma

So literally all I have to do is:

Put the ROM on my Sd card,

Go on CWM

Wipe cache/dalvik Cache

install zip from SD card

Wait for the ROM to install

Reboot

hey presto I'm done?
[Xperia Play Android Development] HearthC0re:
That's the idea. What ROM are you coming from?

Keiran: I give up for now. Gotta get up in the morning..

Will restore and try again tomorrow.. gnait! ;)

Stock x) I bought my Play a month ago, updated it via Sony's OTA, 2.3.4, rooted it too, now looking to make the next big step :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Potato13:
Yeah just do what you said but don't check format /system in the aroma installer otherwise you will need to flash 2.3.4 again.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ShahinTehShiz:
So if I make a Nandroid of my current firmware, I can ALWAYS go back to that one right?
[Xperia Play Android Development] jacklebott:
As long as you can access recovery, pretty much.
[Xperia Play Android Development] ShahinTehShiz:
Kieran, I just have to say, I've literally JUST flashed the ROM, and you've restored my faith in the universe xD

It works so amazing, especially from a newbie like me, and the aroma installer is such a lifesaver!

Thank you so much and please continue to bring more! ^_^

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:26 PM ----------

Do I format data? I left System and Data alone in aroma installer and now after boot link 2 sd keeps telling me of some mount warning :S and I can either reboot or recreate the mount scripts? Which do I select?
[Xperia Play Android Development] KeiranFTW:
Recreate mount scripts ;)

[Xperia Play Android Development] netizenmt:
Any comments, suggestions or ideas about the acore errors?

Also what differences are there between this ROM and the standard UK ROM? I'm not seeing anything but I also didn't run it very long because of the acore errors.
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
If recreating the mount scripts doesn't work, go into /system/bin and rename debuggerd to debuggerd.orig or whatever else, just make sure it's not debuggerd anymore. Then reboot so the phone recognizes that it's not there anymore. You should then be able to recreate your mount scripts.
[Xperia Play Android Development] HearthC0re:
Hey Keiran!

Finally got it flashed allright.

Flashed newest Official Rom via WotanClient.. Factory Reset in CWM and excluded Data and System in AROMA.

Started System and set it up for the first run, rebooted to install WLAN Modules..

And it's runnin near damn fine now.

Will get rid of all the bloat now, though :o

Maybe include a step to define what bloat you want in AROMA?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Magnumutz:
I simply used Gemini App Manager to block/disable all the bloatware.

It's better than completely removing, as you can unblock/enable them any time you want.
[Xperia Play Android Development] fma965:
unless of course the objective is to free space in which case the above app is useless

Could you, or someone, please help me here. The first time I tried using this ROM, I installed it over the UK ROM, so of course I didn't see any difference to speak of. The second time I restored the phone to Stock, rooted, installed CWM and then used the OTA to download the file and installed it. That time I got acore errors. Now I have tried a 3rd time, and this time I'm getting the force close media errors others have reported. I did not wipe /system but I did wipe data.

This is on a US Verizon R800x with a locked bootloader, btw.

Thanks if you can help.

Right, just found new ICS bootanimation and Xperia S applications, putting them in next version of ROM.

Sony have really really thought about UI, the current build of DFR I am using is AMAZING!

Would even go as far to say it is better than ICS vanilla android theme.

Keiran
[Xperia Play Android Development] m2maddy:
Cool man, you are always trying to make things better.

Unfortunately I like ICS UI, so keep switching between DFR and ICS Roms (Now on Sony Beta).

I waiting for the day DFR releases with ICS say DFR 4.0 which is ICS based, wow now that would be a dessert.

Nice going Keiran.

BTW, if the above goes good and by any chance of new screenshots tempt me, I might switch back again :)

No good.

To Review: I have a US Verizon R800x with a locked bootloader running 2.3.3 (3.0.1.E.0.88 Kernel) originally. I returned this to Stock since I had been running the U.K. ROM (3.0.1.A.0.145), by using the R800x 2.3.3 Full 3.0.1.E.0.88 FTF and Flashtool. Then I rooted with the Zergrush method and installed CWM. I cleared the caches. Then I installed your ROM via the zip file, choosing not to wipe \system, but wiping \data. There are 2 or 3 things on the menu that say they are for GSM only so I cleared the checkboxes for those. Am I right that if they are Blue they are selected and white if they are deselected?

Anyway, once the ROM finishes installing, I installed the wifi drivers before rebooting and let the phone come back up. After this all completes, I start getting the media errors again.

If I go back to the UK ROM I'm ok again, so I don't think it has anything to do with the SDCard or anything like that. I'm out of ideas. If anyone can suggest anything else, I can try it over the weekend. Thanks! :confused::confused:
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
Try to wipe your data from the CWMR menu before flashing the rom, then go ahead and select it in the AROMA installer, too. I know it seems redundant that you would wipe data twice, but I think there's something with either the CDMA or the fact that the bootloader is locked that keeps it from wiping fully through the installer. I could be way off base on this, but I always wiped data both ways before flashing this rom.

You have DooMKernel, just put the ROM on SD and then reboot your phone, watch the power button and when it turns blue spam the back button, this should put you in boot manager, then choose touch recovery :)
