Also to ROM developer, please use stock music app or a music app which has widgets. I am not really enjoying the MIUI music player.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Sorry, I forgot I included miui player was for personal use. In next RC

Got a few ideas planned but when fxp 118 is released
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
cheers to the developer! i am so addicted to cm9 since fxp115 release. but having the most trouble in battery! my battery lasts for like 12hrs max with zero wifi usage. no clue, and not all people are facing this. when i saw this rom, i was like wow! cm9 based with more tweaks and mainly battery performance. using it for like 20hrs, and yes, this is really great work! enjoying it but one of the major reasons why cyanogen mod stands up against so many for me is DSP MANAGER. ur rom has DSP MANAGER but thats not working at all. no change in sound. i am using high end skull candy ear phones. also tried the original sone ones, nothing works! i miss that bass and quality. please fix this up? regarding battery, i am not sure as it takes couple of days for real data. else all is way awesome! awesome work there :D

PS..how about adding this to topic or rom name? CM9 based. this will definitely attract many users as cm9 is as top. your too should be!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mariolcneto:
I was facing this DSP problem as well... What I did that worked is whenever I start the music player I turn on and off the Equalizer icon...

Danish, can this issue be caused by the MIUI player that you left in?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Ritmasz:
didn't help...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
thanks for the reply, i notice change but not like CM9 one. did you ever tried that? also which accessory you r using? cuz i really dont get that old huge thing.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OmarBizreh:
Hey guys is anyone facing an issue with touch responsiveness? I noticed its response is not like it used to be on stock or other custom rom :s
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
For me its perfectly fine :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MWahba:
Yes I've had the same issue! Touch responsiveness is not like the normal on any custom ROM .. specially in games and some random times
[Xperia Arc Android Development] vipul955:
after i flashed the rom i didnot find the on screen buttons present there and can you give us the timescape add on too

please i want on screen button like in the screenshots so please tell me how to get it

I LOVE this Rom, but why it is sucking my battery life in sleep mode also.. :(

using Xperia Arc with BB 64

I've removed backlight widget from the status bar, and I've also enabled the only 2G mode for data.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] davibs:
Flash Baseband 70, is perfect (:

No FBMessenger Notifications with this rom!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
Are you sure? :O

actually I was on 70 only but I read somewhere CM9 are compatible only with 64 :confused:

anyways it drain like 15-20 % in 8 hrs while sleep, what about yours?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] davibs:
Mine drained 8% in a night...have u wiped Battery stats and calibrated Battery? (:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
yes i have wiped Battery stats and calibrated the battery :) I'll see the battery life after flashing BB 70.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mariolcneto:
""

I'm using standard earphones... But for me it worked well... I used to have MIUI on my phone before this and the sound quality seems to be unchanged for me...

Danish, when I started using this rom, I had a great battery life... But after a few days it started drain pretty fast... I get on better battery stats twice a day to check what's consuming it so much faster than MIUI did...

1st, seems that the MIUI player drains much more than regular player... I play around 1h of music everyday as I go to work and it used to consume 10% of my battery... Now it's consuming 20%... It's noticeabloe to me because it's part of my routine...

I also always had a problem with 3G... Where I work, the 3G signal is really bad so it keeps searching for the signal... When I was on MIUI I used to enable the "only 2G" option... Now, the 2G barely finds a good signal anywhere... I know I rather be on 3G, but here in Brazil there are so many signal windows, that it makes your phone stay out of range a lot...

The strangest thing is that the wakeups on betterbattery stats decreased from previous roms...

Anyway you can help???
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
That means you haven't experienced the real dsp manager. Huge difference there is. Anyway thanks for the replies. :) looking forward to dev's reply.

Can any one provide me the link to baseband 70? Facing huge battery drain. :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArcMan09:
just have a nyc look on doomed acronium ics 2.2 thread..:cool:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
That option to enable 2G only is present in this ROM. I did it. I got to the settings by long pressing the mobiledata toggle power widget in the notification bar. And regarding MIUI player, I told dinesh about it and he said he will fix that in the next update.

Here you go with the baseband 70 patch

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22919813&postcount=2

Though baseband 64 works for me very well and has kept me happy
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
Guys, can someone tell me how to remove brightness, volume and the other toggles from the slider? I'm having the same problem as you... battery draining like a mother f**** :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] wilsonchuchu:
Just disable it at the setting of reload ics:)

Find me at Gtalk

Sent from my fast Neo V

Sorry for my bad English...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
Thanks!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Toggles causing drain 0.o first time I heard that I'll test and see but remove for now if needed

Btw I think I've got a fix for dsp manager ( doesn't work in cm9) next RC :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
and try if you can replace MIUI player with the stock one :)

thanks for this beautiful ROM! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Anyone looking for stock music player can find it in the attachment till dinesh's next release (borrowed from CM9). Just overwrite the music player in /system/app using Root Explorer and setting permission to rw r- r-. I didn't know AOSP music player had a nice lockscreen control mechanism :)

EDIT: Just do a reboot after overwriting the app
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Would love DSP Manager in its fully functional ways. Really looking forward to the next release. Any more surprises you have for the peepals dinesh? ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
73% after just 2h of basic use... this is killing me :/
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
I'll be changing from 64 to 70 to get rid of battery drain trouble! I have to plugin twice a day for charging with normal usage and more than normal music playback on earphones! Any word on that?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
Yay excited! :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
Pretty much same for me too.

:mad:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
please wait for 2-3 days. it'll be stable..

it gives me around 1 day.. JJ's Rom is little better in terms of battery life though.

and ya, disable brightness toggle in notification bar.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
which baseband you are using?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
I flashed the bb 70 libraries. I don't know if it will do anything good but will report. It's not a matter of waiting for 1 or 2 days because I use this from the beginning ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] GForceXIII:
same here, I've been using this since version 1.

Did BB70 do anything?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
I'm using Baseband 64, but in deep sleep battery decreases for about 15-16% in 8 hours.. but it still lasts for one day with medium usage.

I'm gonna try it with BB 70 today. :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
Please share your experience with BB 70. :D
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
No go fellows. Keeps draining like a... (I'm sorry but I couldn't finish the sentence ) ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] aimcr7:
Try to change your governor to ondemand and i/o scheduler to noop.

Change sampling rate to 20000 and up threshold to 95 and powersave bias to 30.

It save my battery, use cpu master free to do it all.

Before i got 15-16hour, now got 18hour and battery still 14%.

I am heavy user. More than 3hour of screen on, auto sync gmail, twitter, and plume every 15minutes. Playing some games, and browsing web.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
how?

I can change the governor(settings > performance), but how can I change i/o scheduler?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ArmorD:
Rom Toolbox Pro.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] aimcr7:
Use CPU master free from play store.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] NiMH_999:
Hi everyone,

I had battery issue as well a day after installing this ROM

I opened terminal emulator and typed top to see cpu usage which at the time was 75% non stop

I tried all tricks mentioned here but cpu was still running at 75%

I found out, in the end, that I restored apps from Titanium backup and one app which was set to start at boot was crashing and the system was constantly trying to restart it. I removed the app and all is well

PS I used LBE security app with statusbar notification set to ON to find the offending app

Update: you may download system tuner from the market and try to stop user apps from auto start at boot and see if that will help
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mariolcneto:
LOL...

I know that the option is there, I even put the toggle directly on the status bar... What I meant is that the 2G GSM signal is worse than it used to be on MIUI... My phone is having a hard time sticking to it even though I know from the previous roms that it is much stronger where I work than the 3G...

As for the MIUI player, that was a question, not a request... Can it drain the battery faster than the stock player???

Can you guys share your battery stats here for us to compare them???
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
Okay a lot nice suggestions up there. Ill try it all and revert. Bb70 is just the same as 64 for me.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] OmarBizreh:
Never mind problem solved :)

Edit:

I have a question what's the difference between baseband 70 and 64? What changes does 70 bring?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Is it only me or is the earpiece volume during call low in this ROM? Even stock ROMs and JJ's hybrid didn't have that low in-call volume. Could anyone else check because this seems to be a serious problem in need of rectification
[Xperia Arc Android Development] lovemyarc:
That's an CM bug, decrease the volume by one step and increase it again. It will be fine. :) (but for every call :( )
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Yesterday me phone suddenly stopped vibrating for no reason. Initially was a bit scared that my vibrator has gone kaput but later saw that only the ROM was having a problem and a factory reset was the only way to solve it. Even restoring my backups was causing the prob. When I looked at a few posts, I saw the vibrator had a problem in an early build of CM7. Could this have been somehow triggered here?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
so nothing really helps! battery still draining like crazy hell! tried everything!! :( waiting for new updates. missing dsp manager too. but this rom is really cool :P anyway, sticking to this
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MWahba:
Why isn't there any battery usage details?? :confused:

Whenever I open the battery settings it just displays the remaining time without the details of the percentages everything is consuming .. it just reports "battery usage data not available" ...

Any help pleaaaaase
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rashid.fairus:
cm9 bug,wait for fxp mate
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Even ROM developer said DSP manager wasn't working but weirdly its working absolutely beautifully in mine. Is it the music player? At least since I replaced the MIUI music player with stock, I have a fully functional DSP manager
[Xperia Arc Android Development] MWahba:
Waiting! Thanks for the answer dude
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
Might be. I am using miui player only. Can you tell me or link the patch to remove it? And how's the battery performance at ur end?

Here's the patch for it. I tried it myself and well, living super happy with it. Have fun and do tell me your results

Battery? I don't know how others are facing so many problems but these are my battery stats. As you can see, I had the Wi-fi on almost the whole time (except sleep time) and installed quite a bit of apps, played a bit of Angry Birds Space, added and edited loads and loads of contacts. Frankly speaking, this has almost the best battery backup of all ICS ROMs (though JJ's Hybrid still takes the cake for me there)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Well, reloaded settings has nothing to do with my ROM but to make it back to normal colour go into reloaded settings app and uncheck the theme option :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] tenchu_712:
but when i press setting button, it's FC

so i have to re-flash reloaded settings mod :)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
yep :) I meant for the guy with the blue status bar
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ghekua:
Status bar colour solved, thank you guys!

Em cam' on* anh tenchu :))
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Okay guys, this should fix all your Statusbar issues :)

Simply flash in CWM

Also has onscreen buttons like Stock ICS ;) Enjoy

cosmic flow live wallpaper help plx ????
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ghekua:
Bro after flashed hotfix, status bar issues solved.

But the simulator button under the homescreen dock appear (Back, home, Menu).

How can i disable it?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Im not too sure dude, sorry which live wallpaper is that? The Phase beam live wallpaper, and all other live wallpapers ive tested have worked thus far
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
its sony official new live wall pappers calld cosmic flow......here it is cheak this by ur self

http://isymblog.wordpress.com/2012/04/08/cosmic-flow-android-live-wallpaper/
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Hmm perhaps it only works on Sony ROMS because this is an AOSP ROM but I dont think its an issue with the ROM because all other live wallpapers work, try and see :)

And the onscreen buttons are part of the Stock ICS experience isn't it :P Ill make a removal zip later for people who dont like but a bit busy atm
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
yea but this live wallpapper works in galaxy s2 and other cell phones also cheak out on youtube and the rom based on AOSP ....here it is

Are there any problems with baseband .70?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ghekua:
BB70 work fine bro no problem.

Nope, baseband works fine and ghekua I added onscreen button remover + Hotfix without onscreen button zip to post #2 :) Enjoy guys

Btw, Im not sure why cosmic flow live wallpaper doesn't work but the rest of the live wallpapers do work. Sorry, ill try and see what the issue is
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shahzaib.khan:
yoo man its not the big deal actully in ur rom launcher works so smoothly with live wall pappers so in that case i would really love to use cosmic flow live wall papper because itis the bestlive wall papper in my opinion :D....
[Xperia Arc Android Development] macmeier:
Thank you all for your kind replys and for work !
[Xperia Arc Android Development] albxx:
this rom seems really cool

i'm just waiting for flashing the fix for camera...

another question: radio fm works? if yes, what app is in? (i remember that on galaxy s cm9 i had to download spirit fm)

thanks and good work!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
OMG!!! thats huge!!! ill upload mine with zero wifi usage no gaming nothing! just few calls, whatsapp, thats it! urs is amazing! ill try this patch and let you and rest all know here. :)

YES!!!! DSP MANAGER working like charm now! wow! i missed this bass! yay! thanks man! :) hope this helps in battery backup some way! :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Make sure you do a reboot as soon as you overwrite the app :)

Try some performance settings which might help you. Navigate to Settings->Performance->Processor. I am currently using the INTERACTIVE CPU governor and Min. CPU freq. at 122 MHz and Max. CPU freq. at 1209 MHz
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
Yes I have not even over clocked to save battery! :(

Hey i have some Problems with watching Videos on this Rom.. YouTube needs a long timeto show thevideo and the app dailyme doesnt Show something AT all.. its an app Form german Television so maybe someone from germany could check if He hasthe Same Problems?

Reloaded Settings

Is there any way to remove Reloaded settings from this ROM?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
Well still not good but acceptable... I'm using the rom toolbox tips that someone has mentioned before
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
I can't seem to be able to fathom the reasons for others not getting the same battery life as me. I am eking out a day too easily and almost pushing 2 days. I wish I could tell everyone what I have done with my whole ROM
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
A4rocks are you making us fools? Your pictures from battery stats show your charged it twice during that cycle...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
lol, he didnt charge like from 5% to 100%. not much of a charging. even if we cancel out 10hrs from that depending on that extra charging, he is still getting great backup! no offence :)

anyway, after removing few apps, and replacing music app, battery performance has improved greatly! not like A4rocks though, but still, way better now. that sudden drop came when i started using it on normal usage including some games, some operations, 2g data. [slept pretty long :P was busy in last couple of days in a photoshoot, dont want friends here to think what my parents think, too much of sleep! lazy boy :P]
[Xperia Arc Android Development] shinaipt99:
Replacing the music app? What apps did you erase? I use zplayer so I guess its not a big deal for me...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
The two charging cycles are both 20 minutes and 5 minutes each thanks to some file transfers by USB. No kidding man. The worst I got is a day and 2 hours of charge.

I have posted a patch to replace miui player with stock aosp one. Dsp manager works there and plus battery drain has been lower for me. The patch is in previous page
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bhuvangaur:
yea, i removed the MIUI player in this rom and got back the original one from cm9! the link is given above by a4rocks. huge battery difference i can see now. also dsp manager, which is very main in cm, is working now. was not with miui player.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
I am glad I was able to help. :) Been looking at various ways to improve the battery and this one worked like a charm for me

Ok, I'm not able to install this rom. I have SE Arc s, LTi18.

After I flash the FXP 116.img (change name to boot.img, to be sure), and try to flash the rom using CWM, I get assert failed getprop(different devices == true) ||(different devices == true) ... and so on. CWM can not install the rom and aborts at opening package. Now I've return to ICELite, which works flawless.

Why can't I install it?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Crenshaw-PCGH:
Would it be possible to get the onscreen buttons on black background?

I hate the grey background :(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
Go to Reloaded ICS (if you didn't know about it, find it in apps) and find the option for Navigation Bar. Change the foreground and background colors there as you wish to. You can also add and remove buttons from the bar

---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:30 AM ----------

Could you redownload the ROM again? I believe the download package may have become corrupted somehow and thus causing the problems. It should solve your problem
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Crenshaw-PCGH:
Youre missunderystanding me.. im Not talking about The toogles in the Status bar. Im talking about the in screen Buttons which you can get from the addons..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dinesh690:
Yeah, go into reloaded settings and change background colour to black/red/ w.e colour you want for the navigation bar :) Allows you to customize that
[Xperia Arc Android Development] qetuR:
I had downloaded it twice. But I moved the .zip file to the phone through CWM (from FXP 7.2), since the mount USB mode doesnt work on the CWM for 9.0 roms.

When I now moved the boosthd Rc2.zip to the phone via the usual mount. It works.

Thanks!

FXP Bug

Gesendet von meinem LT18i mit Tapatalk 2
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
I have moved from JJ's hybrid ROM to this and trust me, it IS brilliant. Video recorder and Wi-fi hotspot don't work (FXP bug) but since I do not require both, this works out perfectly for me. Wi-fi hotspot might be required sometimes but depending on your usage, you might need it or you simply can live with one slight niggle. Battery is better on JJ Hybrid but this one is super too and the best ICS ROM when you compare everything. Animations are super smooth and memory management is simply awesome. Try it and there's no looking back.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] goce.nakov:
FXP released FXP 119, any plans of an update, or developer just give up from updates??
[Xperia Arc Android Development] a4rocks:
ROM developer is going to release an update soon (if FXP base have changes worth releasing a new ROM build for) with some changes to Music player, DSP Manager and a few more additional bug fixes (for now). Keep watching this thread closely to know what's else is coming soon.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] klaus21:
Ok, thanks for the info! I will try it out one of these days when i find the time for that =)

The ROM is awesome. Flashed it without a problem. Its very versatile and fast. Waiting for the fix for Hotspot and FM Radio. Its a 9 out of 10 for me.
