There is already another FW certifired.. I don't know what sony is thinking. 6.1.A.0.454 is the new one.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] somemadcaaant:
Sony probs thinking the more the better, us at XDA here will tend to think the same which means more to play with (if released).

I reckon the 6.1.A.1.58 firmware will be for the Xperia S hardware referesh version that's coming.

-smc
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gothraven666:
whats the different with the first release?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] somemadcaaant:
There's no product listing for the LT26ii on PTCRB yet to compare, but I'll bet they will share firmware versions like the Arc(LT15i) and Arc S(LT18i) did on their PTCRB lists. ;)

-smc
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] black97one:
Yes :)

Work like before!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] adam1000rr:
As the version number has changed 6.1.A.0 vs 6.1.A.1, my guess is.. They're testing JB :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] luckyguy11:
The update is real, when I connected my XPS using the PCC a few minutes ago, it gives me a notice ... new firmware is 6.1.A.0.453 ....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] FrancoBegbie:
Nice One!!

Yeah, I just updated mine via SEUS and it went very smoothly. Did not loose anything, all settings preserved. Have not noticed any issues. No stuttering music, no lag entering phone dialer or messages. A rather pleasurable update experience all in all

BTW phone is UK Generic - 1257-3114

:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aresbv2000:
man...it says that is custom uk for 2U network or something!this mean is branded like all other firmwares like t-mobile(wich has the bootup animation customized...o2 same boot animation...etc)i know what means "brand new" and "branded".
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
No it's not branded

2U= to you ;)

I am using this firmware right now and not branded.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] huntedsoul:
I seriously hope that they are testing it.

Comm'on Sony :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] aresbv2000:
aaa...thank you...i thought that 2U is a mobile network in uk:)))

so...if you`re using it right now...can you tell us if is any better than the previous versions?

i'm on .452 right now...worth to flash my phone to this one?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SnowOokami:
I think wifi is better and smoothness too... but i did a clean install :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] randy_c:
Anyone on .452 with lagging flashing 0.453 and problem go away?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gm007:
No nothing changed, it's same as 452.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ssj_jaypee:
did you notice any other improvements or fixes with this new release?

I'm wondering if I should bother wiping my phone and trying it or just waiting for a newer release hopefully coming in the next week.

Any news about HDMI lag? :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kench928:
How about the Facebook App problem?

Can it retrieve new version of facebook? (especially with cover pic in personal profile page)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] scook94:
Not sure where you heard there will be another release this week (?), but I upgraded without wiping. This method seems to work best for me, I've tried wiping in the past to upgrade to ICS but it gave me poorer results.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] PrometheusV18:
Is there any change logs for updates on official roms?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rec71:
How do I stitch the two parts together? How do I flash without wiping data?

Winrar will do it automatically.

Use flashtool and untick wipe user data

Ditto here, 11hrs 40 Min - Sitting at 70% and my battery widget says 26 hrs remaining.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
Can someone confirm if this will work in the US?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] randy_c:
Yes. working fine and still lagging. I wonder why they call 0.453?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jonmorris:
Having updated to .453, I have to say that since the update I have been suffering worse battery life - but today I noticed that I was getting errors relating to a Zeebox service crashing (an app I hadn't even loaded since a reboot).

I have since deleted the app, 'pending further enquiries' so will see if that fixes things.

What I have found that seems to be worth the update, for me, is that the camera isn't suffering from the autofocus problems I have before - where often you'd use touch to focus, and it would hunt for a while and then fail completely - being a total blur. Or, being slightly out of focus (equally bad to be honest).

Okay, so we had the sun out today and I took lots of outdoor photos, but not a single photo didn't focus properly and the images seem free of noise. I'll have to do more indoor photography before I can say hand-on-heart the camera is now perfect, but it certainly seems that way from the photos I got (in 16:9, 9MP mode). I even used the auto settings, which correctly detected photos with a backlight (i.e. shots with a bright sky) that is usually suicide!

On the downside, I've had some problems with data. Even with full signal (HSPA) I couldn't send/receive any data. Only a reboot fixed it, but I am more than willing to accept it being a network problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] :
Battery seems to be better but bugs still exist...Quick launch, camera freezes the reboot, access album in quick launch goes back to the camera.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tiborprogmed:
hi

I can make ftf for lt26a - if u would like. it take some hours but I can. I have that kind of files-too

bye

I am looking for 0.454 all the the day, but this is not released until now. Iwill upload, IF Sony release that.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zodiac100:
That's not really lag. Just it's very slow to open certain native applications and yes it's still very much there. That I can confirm plus the 4 - 6 secs or takes to load up the widget menu. All still there so don't get you hopes up too high.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dpk1:
Ditto here! This issue has been plaguing my SXS ever since the ICS update release by sony. I have tried many stock ICS roms with full wipe (about 6 different region roms including .453build) but the quicklaunch bug (and some others) still persists for me :crying:. Even the official SXS MIUI 2.7.20 and MooDed 90.5 rom have this quicklaunch bug! This problem disappears temporarily if u flash a fresh stock/custom ICS rom (with everything wiped) but reappears after you fiddle with/change the default settings/preferences. I have checked/confirmed that it is not hardware (camera) button fault but definitely an ICS bug because the quicklaunch (sleep to snap mode) works perfectly without a miss on all GB roms.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] pentix:
Hi, and the FM Radio works properly?

Thanks in advanced!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Chxrlyglez:
Yes works perfect for me !

Enviado desde mi smartphone
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] realfelix:
I dont have that quicklaunch bug :eek:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Dpk1:
Quicklaunch bug (for me) includes the random hit or miss of quicklaunch fuction using camera key when the phone is asleep. The camera freeze/reboot, however, is rectified by selecting standard limit under background process in developer settings.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jonmorris:
Quicklaunch has been a problem for me on and off since updating to ICS (first the CH ROM, then the 'second' CH ROM and now the latest UK .453 one).

It usually works, but there are times it won't launch - or takes ages (as in almost 10 seconds).

I am not sure about issues with the proximity sensor, but I have had the phone bring up the pattern unlock screen and then not react to any input.. and then time out. The second time didn't respond and then it froze, forcing a power/volume reboot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] subben2003:
Using the TelenorDK update and everything is running smoothly

There is some bloatware but they are easily removed

I'm having no problems at all. Really love my Xperia S running ICS :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] randy_c:
Yes that's lagging. Not happen on GB

1257-3921 or 1257-3114 for the UK

Can anyone please let me know if there is a difference between 1257-3921 & 1257-3114.

I'd like to know what versions of software they are running. I believe 1257-3921 should be running 6.1.A.0.453 but what about 1257-3114.

Also has anyone with these SI numbers been upgraded to 6.1.A.2.45.

I have a Xperia S on Orange and want to flash the standard UK software but confused in which one to choose. I have read many forums on this site and not all UK software is 6.1.A.0.453. There is also 6.1.A.0.454 & 6.1.A.2.50

:cool: Dave J
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] del1701:
3921 is the UK customisation number where as 3114 is the si number so it's one and the same firmware.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DeeJay00001:
What's the difference between a customisation number and a SI number. Which one would I have if I purchased a SIM free Sony Xperia S in the UK 3921 or 3114.

I have also noticed that 1257-3921 isn't on the Sony Forum website

[Xperia Play Android Development] Alejandroch:
Great, I'll try it! :good:
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Cool make sure you download and flash the the wifi modules in CWM!!:D
[Xperia Play Android Development] solomon4400:
Yo I highly rate this kernel and the dev he is really great! Gratz wedgess do your thing.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Cool thanks for the great work, the Intellidemand governor sounds very interesting.....!

Thanks for sharing your source, I like to strip system down to 240MB to give data some more space.

EDIT: I have shared with you my RAMDisk image for your consideration wedgess, maybe you will like it. It is taken from latest CM9 Ramdisk with the following changes:

- Replaced FreeXperia Recovery with DoomLords' Recovery

- Changed Recovery key to Back (instead of Volume-Down) and added a short vibration (just like DoomKernel)

- Bootlogo unchanged, still original FXP one

- Maybe some other small things, can't remember. Tree-compare it to FXP Ramdisk if you like to make sure.

I would release my own kernel with these changes but we already have two CM9-based kernels now, I don't really want to!
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Thanks intellidemand is great, its the governor I'm using at the moment. Recovery should already be the BACK button as I edited the ramdisk with my own boot logo and sbin. I used dooms touch recovery before but just wanted something simple :) if people want I could change eventually;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Did you add vibrate too? I always miss the trigger on FXP kernel lol. I don't like the full Touch Recovery either because you can't see long filenames properly, but the one from his ICS Beta kernel is just like CWM Recovery.. but it does have the touch-enabled buttons down the bottom, or is that the same one you mean...? I understand it can be annoying bumping the screen on that and making a mistake selection, but DoomLord Recovery has some useful features... power-off is a good example, I hate having to pull the battery out to power off (seems dangerous).

Well yeah let the crowd decide, nothing is stopping me from repacking it myself for my use of course :P Cheers.
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Haha ye that's the one I mean just personally prefer the original CWM, I agree with the power off but I just reboot system now and don't battery pull :P I'm open to suggestions though ;) maybe I could make a version for people who prefer it that way??
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Here's an idea. Keep Vol-Down as FreeXperia Recovery (as it is originally), Back key as DoomLord Recovery, and Menu key as Aroma FileManager? That would be KICKASS. Looking at bootrec and bootrec-device scripts in sbin, seems easy enough to do! If you like that and would like a hand, send me a PM! Or we can keep bumping the thread discussing it :laugh: (Why not, valid dev. discussion that everyone can learn from)
[Xperia Play Android Development] ~iSamur@i:
this would be great, two days ago i was just looking on how to insert the doomlord recovery in the FXP kernel XD
[Xperia Play Android Development] Gh61:
Good work

Good work man.

:good:

I was reading your post and I thing governor: Lulzactive is not very effective.

I'm not phone deveolper, I'm only normal programmer.

So if I am wrong please explain.

I think it will make cpu freq very jumping, in every interval.

x=>60 - higher state

x<60 - lower state

so in average load it will do something like: ^v^v^v^v (higher->lower->higher->lower...)

what about:

x>60 - higher state

x<60&&x>40 - stay

x<40 - lower state
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Old Version: When workload is greater than or equal to 60%, the governor scales up CPU to next higher step. When workload is less than 60%, governor scales down CPU to next lower step. When screen is off, frequency is locked to global scaling minimum frequency. THIS IS THE VERSION IT IS NOW

New Version: Three more user configurable parameters: inc_cpu_load, pump_up_step, pump_down_step. Unlike older version, this one gives more control for the user. We can set the threshold at which governor decides to scale up/down. We can also set number of frequency steps to be skipped while polling up and down.

When workload greater than or equal to inc_cpu_load, governor scales CPU pump_up_step steps up. When workload is less than inc_cpu_load, governor scales CPU down pump_down_step steps down.

Example:

Consider

inc_cpu_load=70

pump_up_step=2

pump_down_step=1

If current frequency=200, Every up_sampling_time Us if cpu load >= 70%, cpu is scaled up 2 steps - to 800.

If current frequency =1200, Every down_sampling_time Us if cpu load < 70%, cpu is scaled down 1 step - to 1000.

I WILL CHANGE TO THIS ONE IN A COUPLE OF DAYS

I will leave the old version in there and put the newer one as v2

Click thanks if you like this :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Sounds good, yeah the whole stay-at-current-if-between-60-and-40-percent is not really the nature of lulzactive, it's designed to have very responsive ramping. If you want a "stable" governor give the ondemand a go (or one of the ones it's based on, such as interactive or interactivex). Lulzactive is like a mix between interactive and smartass. Reference: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1369817
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
At the moment I'm having problems with lulzactive2 but if I can't fix it I still have other ones which I've added and am currently testing some of them. More to come.... :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
...such as bfq scheduler and all three FXP-Recovery/DoomLord-Recovery/AromaFM ;D

EDIT: It should be noted that this kernel is based on the official CyanogenMod 9 RC2 release for the Xperia Play, not FXP-CM9. I don't know how different it will behave but there are a lot of sourcecode changes compared to the FXP-CM9.
[Xperia Play Android Development] idiotzach15:
Fxp is CyanogenMod for xperia.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Yes I know that, but FXP is an unsupported and unofficial fork. This kernel however, based on official cm9 for zeus, has been modified for inclusion into the official CM9 device tree. There are a LOT of source-level differences, for example the official CM9 for zeus (including this kernel) has no bfq scheduler and revised netfilter code (which wifi tethering relies on, it needs to be tested). And many other things. The reason I'm stating this is because the tutorial we have for building a zeus kernel uses the original fxp-cm9 kernel as a base.

It was info for those who want to use/examine the Lupus source for whatever reason. I for one can't build the kernel from source, I get ipt_ecm.c errors (trying to sort it out with wedgess help, seems to be case-insensitive source and/or mismatched netfilter code from different kernels). Either wedgess has committed an untested source change or my toolchain (from Doomlord) or Linux environment is borked.
[Xperia Play Android Development] CosmicDan:
Seems that mounting USB Mass Storage in Recovery is broken with this kernel, or is it just me? Can anybody else test it?
[Xperia Play Android Development] lightningdude:
I know for a fact that DooMLoRD's recovery doesn't call the UMS properly with CyanogenMod. Last time I looked into it, I read that it's something to do with whatever rom you're running, in conjunction with the kernel, itself. In other words, DooMLoRD makes his stuff to work with stock, and because of that, there will be differences when using his stuff with CyanogenMod.

Sent from my GT-I9300
[Xperia Play Android Development] fma965:
i think i might know why it keeps getting removed,

mediafire removed files it believes are violations (automatically) therefore a file with the letters 720p in may be removed thinking its a film or something. :(
[Xperia Play Android Development] wedgess:
Thats a good suggestion you could be right :highfive: anyway re-uploaded and renamed and just incase they remove it again it's attached below as well 720p wifi fix that is :cool:
[Xperia Play Android Development] fma965:
yh i dunno if i am correct or not but seems like a viable reason. thanks for the re-up although decided to use the 480p version any way :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] DubleJayJ:
--NVM- My bad....didn't pay attention :P

Anyways, good update. You should try and put in Touch Recovery...but still keep it at 6.0+

[Xperia Play Android Development] cj360:
Don't know if anyone else has noticed it but there's a pretty nasty bug if you use from manager to make a nandroid. It'll restart and then freeze at the lupus logo with the vibrate stuck on.

So just back up in cwm and then rename the backup with from manager.
