:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:.....SORRRRYYYY!!!!....i thought the other way!!!...i'll DEFINITELY UPLOAD THE THUMBNAILS THEN.

thanks IILKO & FELSAR.... :)

i have uploaded the screenshots directly on the thread as attachment. hope you all can see the screenshots now :) :)..BTW, can you all see the video link???
[LG Optimus Black] desirat:
it's true, i can't see either
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
no prob man...

I can see the link, it looks great I'm about to try it out...

BTW I asked you something there :p if you're not reading it now I ask you here...

it's off topic: you are using OSP right? but the real question is, which software you using to record it? I did 1 vid with "cyberlink youcam" it was about 3mins and 320x240 and when finish it say to weight 1.5Gb O_o?

-edit- oh another thing, to flash v2.2 I need v2.0 already installed? or can flash it without problem?
[LG Optimus Black] xpresotw:
Ok thanks anyway

Sent from my LG-P990 using Forum Runner
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
lol!!!.sorry, didn't read it!!!...nd no, am not using OSP. this is a software (paid) @google play called screencaster. real handy if you want to record the screen video without any fuss and computer ;) :)
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
ohh! didn't knew of it, but that doesn't makes it laggy? like if you wanna record a game?

sorry for offtopic :o

ontopic... can I flash v2.2 directly or need previously v2.0 flashed?
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
offtopic: it's quite laggy even in simple screen recording :rolleyes: let alone games

ontopic: u can install v2.2 directly. it is a standalone full ROM. :)

hope i helped.
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
very usefull indeed, I'm about to flash it now :p
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
flash and report back the experience. please. :)
[LG Optimus Black] Navios92:
I already have v2 installed, can I install 2.2 over it without having anything lost?
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
I'm totally loving it man, I like tha elegance and cleanness of your prada rom, but this one has it's own feeling, elegant and energetic, yet peacefull, colors.... and the background at notification pulldown is awesome...

it's fast, stable, reponsive, battery life cannot tell you cause is only about 5hours but tomorrow we'll see...

keep the good work:D
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
absolutely no idea!!!...sorry :o:o
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
it is ALWAYS good to do a clean install....use Titanium to backup your apps & games. then restore them back with version 2.2 ;)
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
:):)great that you liked the ROM. however, update on the battery performance of the ROM. i'll be waiting. :)
[LG Optimus Black] desirat:
ok it's working, check pm to see how to do this

[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
I there achyut, 1st off all let me say that this ROM is just AWESOME :D.....Really I would say that this ROM makes our Black an Excelence in the comunity. Just installed and I´m just amezed.

But I would like to make you a simple question so far....I know that this ROM is about the sapphire and all of that....but I´ve a baby boy, and allways putting his picture as background....and when I pull down the statusbar...I get an color shock with the blue on the status bar....so my question is....could you make the status bar transparent? And if yes, could you make the menu transparent as well? A big thank you And hoping that you can increase the performance of the ROM even better. :D

One again, thank you
[LG Optimus Black] re4lsk:
Achyut Just one comment, I use V6Supercharger too, but i think you should post the stable one, and not the RC that you are using, at least if you share it as an addon give your user the stable one.

Also the one that came in your zip wasnt Supercharger, it was Kernelizer.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
yes....i actually used the kernelizer RC and found it quite stable and usable. also, i posted the kernelizer for am going to add another link the smurfed tweak. both these together is making the SAPPHIRE 2.2 FLY!!!...am on my way of writing the instruction for applying the smurf script how to. :) :)...thanks for the input. :)
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
Just installed the Snnapy Sapphire and the Super Fluid Sapphire...and DAMM...this ROCKS :D
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
;) ;) :D :D...enjoy the ride ;)
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
well...i will not make the bar transparent for the look of the ROM will vanish then.

but,here you go...only for your baby boy :) :)...

attaching the transparent pulldown.

download the attached framework & just use replace and reboot :)
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
SAPPHIRE THEMED application thread added

take a look here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=23797556#post23797556

i'll update the apps regularly to add more of SAPPHIRE themed (cyan+transparent) popular applications :) :)
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
I there.....a BIG thank you ma men :D Just one thing....How do I install it? xD

Never mind....Just made it to work now. So simple, but yet, so beautifull :)
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
Hi there, sorry once again to bother you...but after a while of installed the script, the phone becomes more laggy than before...

And another thing....the 3d performance is very low compared to another ROM´s....I tried asphalt 6 and the phone in some parts just hangs himself in some parts....And this is just a thing that I didn´t noticed in any other ROM.

I´m not talking bad about the ROM, just giving my expirience.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
yes....i have noted that...do i thing...uninstall the scripts/tweaks.paradoxically, they are the cause of the lag:rolleyes:

i'll release version 2.4 someday maybe with integrated sapphire applications and tweaked 3d settings.;)
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
Do a thing achyut...install the scripts but let the smanager on the phone (you can unistall the busybox apk). I did this and now the phone runs smoother....even in 3d performance.

I think that without the smanager, the installations of the scripts just vanish, cause I install them, and then unistalled the smanager and the busybox....and then I told you the problem in the previous post. Then i installed just the smanager and when I saw the scrips...they havn´t the su (on green) activated. So...just installed the scripts again, and let the smanager on the phone.

Now it is smooth, just the way it meant to be. :D
[LG Optimus Black] atuan1993:
i have a question that does this rom have volume roker wake like cm7
[LG Optimus Black] Duarte777:
I am downloading the 2.2 but the download speed is very low .. I'm downloading for 40 minutes and there are still 92 mb to end: (

For the next upload the rom to mediafire, please.
[LG Optimus Black] Sureshr_Babu:
I new to XDA this is my first post here

Hi I am new to XDA!!! I have been using this ROM since 2 week:)

Rom is very good compare to others... But my CPU is running at 1Ghz and i don't get options to set 1.2 or 1.4ghz:confused:, do i need to flash another kernel to gain speed, if yes then which kernel is compatible with this ROM..

I have found some bugs; :(

When i change the font, it become bold and thick i tried in spare parts reducing the size happens but bold stays

I loose Data connectivity and H or E shows but up and down arrow doesn't when i disable and re-enable data switch on notification bar still not getting data??? But i found temporary solution i need to reboot the phone to make it work...

Again i New here.. please bare on my post
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
it is answered a few posts back
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
ok...but i didn't upload it because MEDIAFIRE stopped updating the download counts after 2980 downloads of SAPPHIRE 2 :(....so, i thought to upload to minus..but don't worry,

am already uploading the SAPPHIRE 2.2 with added themed apps & updated (i.e., the "smurfed") build.prop to mediafire. link will be up in few hours.:)
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
pretty lengthy quote, eh??:D:D

ok...i'll try and answer one by one.

OC is just not possible currently on ANY ROM for the black. the only ROM to ever possess OC capability is the NOVA ROM(2.2).

and yes, for OC, you need a custom kernel..but SAPPHIRE is build on stock zimage, so OC is not possible. for undervolting, get any CPU control app from Google Play and u would be good to go. :)

of your "BUGS"

1. the fonts are not bolder than normal. actually the default font of sapphire is too lean and artistic, so the changeover is so prominent...if i were you, i would have stayed with the default font. looks much better.;)

2.that problem is never faced by me. as this ROM is build on STOCK,i tried to stay close to it as possible.it is highly unlikely that you have such a problem with the "ROM". might be a carrier and signal strength issue. i got close to 3000+ downloads and no one reported this kind of a problem. i'll check it. thanks for the input. :) :)
[LG Optimus Black] Felsar:
Hi there, I've been using this rom for a couple of days now, and just wanted to show you a lil' bit of battery usage, I think is pretty good so far...

last night I left the phone with 8% battery when going to sleep, this moring for my surprise it was at 9% battery, I know is hard to belive and more if I forgot to take a screenshot :S my bad will try to reproduce same scenario tonight, but if you try it will see it's true...

the screenshots below show some medium use, like 30mins or so of gaming, a bit more than an hour of calling, and some other uses... the thing I like the most is that [almost] flat [horizontal] lines when the phone is not in use, cause I don't mind loosing batt when using it since is normal, but what I like is to not loose batt when not in use, or at least to loose the less batt posibble...

there's a lot of people asking about battery stats of all roms, but a good question would be performance, cause battery is related to everyone's personal uses so is hard to tell this or that, so the best way to know is to try it out :P
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
lol...yes SAPPHIRE 2.2 is actually real good....and you don't need 2 do that for a screenshot....here is one...7 HOURS 52 MINUTES AND 26 SECONDS on standby. check the usage :eek::eek::eek:

:D:D
[LG Optimus Black] Psxmaster:
Is Version 2, 2 Base Rom v20o???

Then Not i wait for v 3 :-)
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
I always be honest and as long I can see at your screenshot I dont like so much the UI of this ROM, but is true when ppl say that is better if you give it a try and no take conclusion just by seing a pic. Already downloaded, both scripts too... Im a little bit confused about script installation but I hope wont be a hard work, Im wonder if that script cannot be as default... anyway, I ll give my feedback about battery life, perfomance, how smooth this is it and benchmark results. I think I ll say my opinion about UI too, but as I say that is just my opinion, everyone like different things.

Anyway, give me 18 hors and I ll post my results. Thx for your hard work!

Edit 1: Already downloaded and installed... both scripts installed (is easier than it looks xD), now lets try the system, lets see UI, lets take some benchamark and lets take some rest to see battery consumition in standby mode :P

Edit 2: I rly dislike that font... maybe it will be great if you put in first post some .zip to install default one, or maybe roboto (ICS), Im so bored about ICS UI but the font its so beuty =P. and if you cant or just doesnt want its ok too, thats just a request...

Edit 3: 1302 in quadrant, all result as the same as the best ROM I ever try (maybe it cant be highest), but it told me that you have optimized everything. The only thing is lower is I/O but is not so bad.

As achyut recommend me, I do this bench about 4 times. I got always between 1300 and 1400.

Edit 4: Antutu benchmark give me 2626, is fine considering the best score I obtained is 2720 or so, then there is not much difference.

Same here, it give me between 2500 and 2720.

Edit 5: Neocore give me 45.2fps, thats ok considering 45.7 the best score I got.

Always give me 45 fps, with different .x, 45.2, 45.3, ... 45.x.

Edit 6: I like bootsound, bootanimation and already replace default font by the one @achyut give me from post 7. It looks better for me.

Edit 7: I use the framework from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23783951&postcount=82 and I got bootloop, restoring...

- Impossible to get recovery by hard buttons. Used adb reboot recovery to work.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
no....and i think am gonna continue with version 20N until i find a solid reason to changeover to v20o....AFAIK,the changelog that you see in the other thread is of generic 2.3 GB(i.e., version20"x"), and not only of v20o. Correct me if i am wrong.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
ok....there is another font on post 7 (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=23621971&postcount=7)..teh one i used in SAPPHIRE_v1....but fonts are very minor glitches...and mostly a personal preference. users can always replace the DroidSans.ttf @ fonts folder ;) ;)...nd of benchmarks, please ensure taking atleast 4 to 6 runs to get the best bench.;)
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
for EDIT 3: do i thing....uninstall the Smanager and busybox....next, push the attached build.prop to the phone. reboot. then run quadrant.

i get the following attachments in successive runs. there is some compatibility conflicts with quadrant and the two subsequent scripts being applied.
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
I dont use that version of quadrant, I use the quadran standart free application from market. That is different and I think results are different too.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
i have personally tested it. worked normally without any wipes needed. the person i uploaded it for (tugasoulhunter or someone i don't remember) is also using it without any glitch.

tested it even now....worked as it should.....and erecovery is NOT installed. it's normal CWM.
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
I dont know what I do wrong then, This is the steps I did:

1.- Download file

2.- Put framework on my sd.

3.- use root explorer and replace framework in system/framework/

4.- Reboot.

5.- Stuck on bootanimation (pretty noice because bootanimation LOL xD)
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
well..seems legit...but i always use adb to do this:rolleyes:
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
I think the problem is the permissions... will be?
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
umm...i don't think....rebooting automatically sets the same permission as it is with other files in the same folder.

let it go man!!! that framework was specific for tugasoulhunter cause of his baby. it worked for him. dats it.

btw,herez the "hacked" the "NEW" quadrant...showing the paltry black over the other serious beasts.

USE THE ROM FOR A FEW DAYS AND FORM AN OPINION ABOUT THE RELATIVE SPEED, THE STABILITY, THE SLEEKNESS instead of using the ****ty benchmarks :rolleyes:

seriously man!!!..use the ROM for a day or two and then give a feedback.;):o:D:D
[LG Optimus Black] Sureshr_Babu:
Thank you very much for response.... your rom is good... If get anything good will share.... HAVE A NICE TIME :)
[LG Optimus Black] ocovarr112:
Actually yesterday I got sleep right next I try framework and doesnt work. Yeah, I just want transparent but isnt a priority, its ok.

I think benchmark is just a way to see your device speed, but they arent the final decision. As you say, its better use the rom a few days that based your choice in base of benchmarks.

I just do that in order to share all results that some ppl are interesting in, I think the ROM is pretty nice one, is way so smooth (one of the best I ever try based on smooth), battery life is excelent (I slept about 8 hours and it consumed 2%), already gamed angry birds for a while and battery its ok, no fc or bugs founded already.

I think this ROM is good, I just dont like to much UI as I say at first, I ll use this today and then I ll try another beta version from another ROM because I promised do that.

BTW, thx a lot for your work, is pretty nice one. And sry about my pretty bad english :P
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
thanks for the input :)....the UI likeliness is an utterly personal thing. i tried to go colorful since the previous ROM of mine (the PRADA3.0 ROM) was almost devoid of any color.

so i tried to go flurry and colorful with this ROM :) :)
[LG Optimus Black] TugaSoulHunter:
the framework work as a charm, atleat for me :D
[LG Optimus Black] Pondera:
Port it to V20e or at least v20o. You won't be sorry. Just an opinion. No request :)
[LG Optimus Black] xDENgear:
i uze sapphire. then kau for the rom. bestest rom for p970. better dan zeus, echelon, miui, lezo, lewa, prada, cm7, lfd, noa, tmr. i say dis becauge i try each rom and fund sapphire best. good works.
[LG Optimus Black] achyut:
personal opinion maybe. glad that you liked it. :)

fr me, ZEUS & MARVEL are the BEST possible roms.absolutely no comparison.

we have some great devs. :)

yep mine too on o2, i found this link on a old XDA thread about paying to unlock the bootloader (can't link as a new member but if you search for phoneunlockserver)

I'll use that as a last option if all else fails
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kiefels:
I would be willing to pay for a working root solution on my locked bootloader XpS

My biggest fear is...xda devs have worked with Sony to get certain bootloaders unlocked. So it will be locked down pretty tight i'm guessing.

Hopefully they left open a root option without the need of unlocking the bootloader. If so i'm hoping the solution comes fairly soon.

The bloatware they have stuck on here is ridiculous,

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abandoned-Trolley:
It's possible that you may well be able to root without unlocking the bootloader. There was something called Zerg Rush exploit on other phones, which is what I used on my Xperia Arc.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] PollPixx:
I am checking this thread often from now on. I just had an xda break for over a year (iphone) but i am planning to buy this phone next month. Of course the big charm is to root and theme the thing to your own hand.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Rashkae:
My Xperia S was rooted from day 1.

But I don't have a carrier-provided phone which is not unlockable.

---------- Post added at 11:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 PM ----------

No, you have the wrong understanding. Phones that are provided by, or customized by, a carrier are usually not "unlockable" due to the warranty claims. Only phones bought directly, or paid for in full (rather than on a "lease" from the carrier) are unlockable.

It's a matter of who carries the warranty and what they decided to do with it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] PollPixx:
Ok, i will buy one without contract so i assume its not provider locked...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alien987:
Correct, SIM-free ones so far have unlockable bootloader
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dbappa:
There will be a solution to unlock O2 phones in the future though?

There is nothing we can do with locked bootloaders as of yet until there is method to use s1 tool which unlocks bootloader like it did for the 2011 devices

I really want my xs rooted but like I said not possible as of yet
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] moonset:
Apparently sim-unlock a sim-locked XS won't make any difference to the bootloader status. :(

Does anyone know if flashing it to another official rom (un-brand it) make any change? :confused:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] festa20:
Well im on tmobile and from uk and ItS sim locked
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Cholek3:
It all depends where are you taking it from. If you are taking it from retailer, such as T-Mobile, more than likely it will be simlocked, because T-Mobile does not want you i.e. to use that phone with another network SIM card, but if you buy it from shop, like Sony, Phones4U, Carphone Warehouse, etc... they are selling unlocked phones, so they could simply put any mobile carrier SIM card in. There are exceptions though.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Melty:
I just bought a balck Xperia S from 3 yesterday. Needless to say it is SIM locked (although they will unlock it for £15.32) and also the bootloader is locked. I've been a member here for many years and I would usually doa lot more research before buying a phone. :-(

Do we all reckon that it will be possible to root this phone at some point? I do hope so!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] festa20:
