Workaround for correct identify and stereo 720p

Hi!

I would like to share my small fixes. Is this for:

1. Sony PC Companion identify the phone correctly.

2. Stereo 720p camcorder settings.

I cannot create a flashable zip. So, do it manually. :)

Extract the attached archive. You will get 2 folders:

Identify_LT15i&Stereo_Camera

Identify_LT18i&Stereo_Camera

And 3 files in folders:

build.prop

default-capability.xml

media_profiles.xml

Copy LT15i/LT18i folder to your SDCard!

Now, on your phone:

First of all backup your current build.prop!!!

I suggest to do it with Root Explorer!

You will find in /system/

Second, backup default-capability.xml and media_profiles.xml

You will find in /system/etc/

After this, copy build.prop from your SDCard to /system/

AND SET THE CORRECT PERMISSION!!!​

rw-r--r--​

After this, copy default-capability.xml and media_profiles.xml from your SDCard to /system/etc/

AND SET THE CORRECT PERMISSION!!!​

rw-r--r--​

Now restart the phone and that's all.

Sony PC Companion identify the phone "Sony Ericsson LT15i" or "Sony Ericsson LT18i" instead of Neo.

And record a 720p video and look the file details. It will be stereo 48000Hz audio.

Still working on xLOUD issue. I don't think so it's kernel related.

Hi!

PS: If you DON'T SET the CORRECT PERMISSION, you will get BOOTLOOP!!!​
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bukest:
xLOUD FIX for LT15i/LT18i!!! :P

Got it WORK! :cool:

It's not kernel related. ;)

If you updated the Walkman app with latest U4, xLOUD can't get work.

Because missing a correct settings in:

audio_effects.conf

I've attached the fixed audio_effects.conf for Walkman U4 app. ;)

You will find it /system/etc/

First of all, backup your current audio_effects.conf!​

Extract the attached archive and copy the file to /system/etc/

Set the right permission!!!​

rw-r--r--​

Restart the phone and enjoy xLOUD!!!:cool:

PS.: the safest way to make your own.

How to do it:

copy audio_effects.conf to computer and edit it with Notepad++

Open and check it contains this:

xloudwrapper {
path /system/lib/soundfx/libxloudwrapper.so
}

and

xLOUD {
library xloudwrapper
uuid 46af9240-dd14-11df-ae36-0002a5D5c51b
}

If don't, copy the code before the last

}

After this, save and copy back to phone /system/etc/

Set the right permission!!!​

rw-r--r--​

Enjoy!

Hi!

PS: If you DON'T SET the CORRECT PERMISSION, you will get BOOTLOOP!!!​
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ninehuss:
xloud in locked bootloader

I got my xloud working by reinstalling the app via root explorer

1. In System/app look for AudioEffectService.apk

2..Hard press and click "install".

3. Ok

4. Check if permission is set to rw-r-r

I'm getting a process.acore fc message quite often but I don't notice anything unsual on the phone. Does anyone else has that and does anyone knows what it is?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bukest:
Hi!

Still working on it. A few times, I get this fc. I think it's related by the launher.

Because I install another launchers and if I uninstall them, fc message will appear.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ThilinaC:
it only appears when uninstalling an application,I am trying to fix it but no luck so far.I don't think it will do any damage tho
[Xperia Arc Android Development] FAdrums:
Cool! I also don't think it's dangerous but it would be cool not to have it! :silly:

What about the bug in which my LT18i shows up in PCC as a Neo? Is there a solution?

BTW ThilinaC can we expect "regular" updates? I'm so in love with this rom! :o
[Xperia Arc Android Development] marcell39:
me too i had this fc after uninstalling app
[Xperia Arc Android Development] bukest:

Posted a fix in page 11.;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ThilinaC:

I have it too, it's a bug. Hope Thilina finds the time to provide us with a fix..! :cool:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] anthraxter:
Mine is working. Format data/cache/system - Complete new installation of the rom. The only thing is im getting random lags and i don't know where it comes from. I use Rush Kernel. Any clues? What kernel are you using?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Before I flashed Pureness 14 I wiped everything..

I am using XArc but I am considering trying KTG 1.52
[Xperia Arc Android Development] chakaal:
I would recommend to try the rom first with adv stock Kernel to See if there are bugs..(:

Sent from my purenessed LT18i
[Xperia Arc Android Development] XtremeSilencer:
Yes the mod works in this rom if you use arc knight kernel/doomkernel
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
I will try out right away with other kernels and see what happens..

Edit: Weather bug is there with KTG 1.52
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dahmanovitch:
The only problem its thé weather widget error.. The new widget work fine but the old one has force close.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ThilinaC:
Guys need some opinions about what should be in the service pack,want to finish this rom as perfect as I can =)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CarrotAk23:
Maybe some tweaks, the Rom is so perfect :))
[Xperia Arc Android Development] luciandroid:
Ahm sir thilinac, as for the boot animation, i would suggest that maybe you should make the animation loop single, and make the (thilinac presents iceccream pureness) just having shine or something like the stock xperia boot? hehehehe i wiould really love it, but i love the current boot animation ;) im just suggesting cause it looks redundant when it loops over and over...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kaz93:
There are new mods in themes and apps section such as the xperia tablet s keyboard and bravia engine 2..can you include them as well?

lets see =)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
A Service Pack for Pureness 14? :laugh:

ThilinaC we will be waiting for this one!

My suggestion for the Service Pack is a lockscreen with an SMS/Missed Calls counter and perhaps the last SMS recieved shown, like Xperia S Lockscreen.

Other than that, everything is already great. I saw that you fixed Weather Widget, thank you!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mikhail69:
hi Sir ThilinaC!..

its been a while but we do appreciate your continued support for our outdated 2011 devices..

may i also add a request for the Service Pack 1..

i wish for a CRT-off type of a screen lock.. just like the cyanogenmod screenlock off mode..

somewhat of an eye-candy for our phones..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kilouhm:

[Xperia Arc Android Development] ThilinaC:
Framework on service pack supports Xperia S lockscreen ;)

I will post the lockscreen apk as a separate addon since lot like wave lock

last I checked crt animation is not possible in sony ics framework,did somebody ported it correctly ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] kilouhm:
this the most smoother and faster Rom i ever try

but

Q for Arc users which kernel is the best ?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
CRT is possible, check themes & apps :o
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Try XArc or KTG. For me XArc is the best..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Destroyedbeauty:
Try Lupus kernel, stable, smooth and battery friendly.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Quick Review: The best ICS Rom just got even better. :laugh:

- Really like the Tabbed Notification Bar

- No need to Wipe everything, just Dalvik/Cache.

- Small Apps work great, now I can have them on my device.

- Don't know what's the use of the 2 "Apps" in the Drawer: "Disable Auto" and "Toggle ALS Preferences".

- Weather Widget now works right.

- The new keyboard skin is absolutely awesome..!

Refinements here and there that really make a difference. Hands down the best Rom for our Arc.

Thanks again ThilinaC.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] jader13254:
The Keyboard is really awesome, but don't forget to hit thanks to the creator, danis ariandi ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] CarrotAk23:
Omg, i have used your ROM as my based for new ROM, it was awesome until i flash ur SP1

And....... kabooom, now your Pureness is even faster than my mod :))))) damn, maybe i will be sticked with ur Sp1, it damn so fast!!!!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dahmanovitch:
Wondetful rom.. You are the best Mr.thilinac :thumbup:
[Xperia Arc Android Development] eakav:
I thought that Pureness 13 is the best, the Pureness14 then come and made me wrong. Today, SP1 is making Pureness14 better.

Thank you very much for creating an awesome rom.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] rmroad:
great update man specially the keyboard skins, i just think that the boot and shutdown animation is to glary to the eyes hope you can make it softer ,it would really be nice if someone can MOD the message window like the keybord skins when someone can change or wants to use a darker message window...one of the best rom!:good:

Edit:

BTW why cant i tick SHOW RECOVERY on power menu option? am positive i have CWM and pls can you point me to Night-Elf kernel? thanks so much appreciate it...
[Xperia Arc Android Development] luciandroid:
is KTG kernel compatible with this ROM?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] dahmanovitch:
Why Some app i installed dont appear in the menu ????
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Yes it is.

Clear Xperia Home app's data. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] solomon4400:
@ ThilinaC,

will the new service update that you've uploaded here be compatible with secko's port of build14 for xperia play?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] luciandroid:
Sir thillinac, this service update is just awesome! Love the small apps ;),
[Xperia Arc Android Development] ThilinaC:
Actually no need to wipe anything mate

About ALS App

first icon is to toggle the light sensor off and second is to enter the apps settings

For keyboard and small apps full credit to the authors of the mods mate =)

use it from systemui,I didn't had time to edit the framework back to support it in power menu. Had to give back my neo today back to mom :/

no idea mate,I do not know how did he ported it

You should ask from him

Try by clearing data of Xperia home app in settings

And everyone thanks for the nice comments about the rom,glad you all like it =)

Little bit late for the service pack but national roaming patch would be very nice addition. Basically with it enabled phone does not think you're roaming as long as the operator is from your country. Fixes those pesky virtual operators. In most countries you cannot roam with domestic operators so no worries of surprise charges. But it's still on/off toggle, so..

[Xperia Arc Android Development] Babis_ECE:
Works fine in LT15i, probably a specific SK17i bug?

You probably will be good to go with just Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache, but Wipe all is highly recommended every time you flash another Rom.

My suggestion is BackUp your apps+data and Wipe everything. ;)
