I can confirm that call ring delay is fixed with latest nightly but you can do a simple test: open build.prop, find ro.telephony.call_ring.delay=1000 and change 1000 into 3000. 1000 means that phone should start ringing after 1 second when receveing a call, 3000 means 3 seconds. Reboot to make change effective. Now pay attention when you receive a call...if phone rings after 3 seconds then changing the line above makes the difference, if not there should be something else in your system that makes the fix not working properly and you have to find what's the cause of the problem (you could try without task killer for example)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] nobodyAtall:
To make a patch you need to force users first flash the build you are patching, and then the actual patch. You also need a way to monitor every single component in the android build for changes - this is awkward to say the least.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Sorry for the really dumb question but, how can i edit the build.prop without crashing the Rom? I've tried with the file editor within Root Explorer but when i save the changes, the file remains unedited, and changing permissions doesn't work. And if i try with other text editors, i can edit the file but then the Rom gets stuck on nAa's logo and i have to do a restore from cwm.

I was just trying to help and reply the other guy, telling him that apk is equally beneficial, You are the idiot bulging in saying that the apk is useless! This is amounting to disinformation and implying that I'm of lying? Since this is a developers' thread, I shall speak no more!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
I have no idea what started this. But I know what's gonna end this. My post!

@saintckk

Perhaps you're being too harsh on the other dude. He has mentioned that while the apk

didn't work for him

, it

worked for some others

.

@JBolho

Perhaps it is unclear in your post whether the app works for real on our phones (I understood it though). But having considered the fact that you have contributed to this community by helping out fellow members, you still don't have the right to post like that.

Seriously this is a message to all members. Don't piss out on others. This is not what XDA was meant for. Please, maintain peace. Otherwise, I won't refrain myself from asking a MOD to help out. I hope you guys understand and I also hope you guys don't take this message the wrong way.

PEACE

Just a question: did you installed 4.0.2 over 4.0.1 without wiping? Try with a full wipe and make a clean installation of the rom without restoring backups and see if the problems persists or not
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
No, i did wipe, just as instructed, and i didn't kept backups from previous versions either. The backup that i have now is from the latest clean installation, after i installed latest nightlies. The only time i didn't wipe anything except cache and dalvik was when i installed the nightlies a few days ago, over the latest 4.0.2.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wizard.:
Im using stable, should I change it ? Btw I see hudge battery drain with these settings. I charged my phone full this night. Then at work i needed to make a call and saw my battery 13%. Checked the battery app and 4:23 on battery it was whole gone :о
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ->Sid:
Did u mount rootexplorer as r/o, i guess that could b the reason for after editing the file when u save it, it show's as saved but it remains as it was..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xelyt:
You should flash latest nightly from here because it fix call ring delay and some other things (for more info look here)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bobgeneric:
I can't open my folders

File Manager error:

The operation's command was not found or has an invalid definition.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Are you using CM File Manager? If so, try other file explorers like Root Explorer. Everyone complains about CM File Manager, so i didn't even try it, but that may be your problem.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] scorpion 21:
Don't know if is this bug or not but when I choose background process limit to 3, after reboot I't changes back to default that must be like that or not?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bobgeneric:
:good:

I'll remove this CM File Manager and install Root Explorer.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] :
No, that's not a bug, you have to set it after every boot, it always worked like this. Correct me if I'm wrong..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bobgeneric:
Every time, when a call ends, i have so much delay to wake up the phone again.

Do you know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bergamin:
hi there,

does the new android 4.2 keyboard (that one with swype like gestures) works for someone with this rom on x8??

thanks
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] azeez9992:
No :(

I have tested

if I helped press :thumbup:

------------------------------------

Device-Xperia X8(e15i)

Bootloader- Unlocked

Kernel- nAa jb-03

Rom- MiniCM10.0.2-shakira
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] wizard.:
Cool for now it seems smooth and fast. What I did is:

1. Made partition for swap (should I go to Performance>Memory Management> Swap Setting and enable it, or it enablels itself when a partition is created? )

2. Installed Nightly

3. Set CPU to 748MHz (minimum is still 122)

4. Kill apps with back button

5. Purging of assets

6. Background process set to 4

7. Set all animations to .5x

Should I make GPU render for 2D drawing.

Or should I change anything after all I did ?

For now it works smooth, not sure for battery draining (not worked on battery after whole procedure)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] xelyt:
If you made a swap partition you don't need to to enable swap in settings...you can check if is running by typing free in terminal. You could also increase min CPU freq to 245 or 320 mhz but is up to you. As for GPU rendering i suggest you to leave it disabled
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] cascabel:
this.

you can also check swappiness by typing "cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness" without the "". default is 30 (zram?), i think. you can add "echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness" at the end of hw_config to set swappiness to 100 every boot.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] yokozuna:
Some observations with the nightly. Maybe some bugs/issues are present in the stable version but I used it too short to say:

- the file manager is not stable, esp. if one wants to make some card operations with folders (even open the folder)

- the camera works flawlessly but 3rd party apps refuse to work (QR Droid and Scan) and show errors or that the camera does not exist

- Nova Launcher does not want to work, but Nemus Launcher works very well (I do not know other launchers)

- Android Assistant and even slight overclocking makes Trebuchet NOT to launch after the reboot (the wallpaper launches but the launcher itself does not). Very annoying thing. The device does not react for pressing hardware keys then.It is not the problem of hardware, overheating etc. My x8 overclocks to 729 MHz, any overclocking, even lower than 729 Hhz is enought for the phenomenon.

- in the menu of the device: I have „Back button ends call“ repeated twice - once in Polish (my mother tongue, and the language of the device) and the other time in English.

- Play Store: I have the description of the programs written in random (??) languages like Finnish or French, after the manual update to Google Play 3.9.17 apk everything is alright - the description is in Polish and if this version does not exist it is in English

I am not sure if the above bugs are caused by the compilation, maybe they exists due to faults of the 3rd party software, CtanogenMod or they are the fault of this version of Android.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] khestrell:
mine is overclocked to 768mhz and everything including trebuchet is working just fine, so i must disagree on that
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] yokozuna:
As I wrote it is not the problem of overclocking itself. In my case I noticed that I had to:

1. overclock the device (even very moderate OC)

2. install this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.advancedprocessmanager (and set it to activate at boot)

And Trebuchet crashed, with distinctive symptoms - some distorted "dots" in the upper part of the LCD, the wallpaper loading, and nothing else was going on.

No such problems exist with nAa's GB kernel 14 and nAa's MiniCM 2.21 (tested with the same settings). As I wrote I am not sure where is the source of the problem. I just would like to warn other users that they can expect similar problems if they use some apps/settings together..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] chrissykess:
Somebody have random reboots?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] gocegi:
if you have random reboots, set limit background processess in development options to 2 or 3.

cheers
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] chrissykess:
I have 3. and i still have reboots. :X
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] CKKnot:
This is hardware rendering issues. Try turn off all hardware rendering, You'll rarely get artifact like that (it's implemented in kernel but rom setting will try to minimize the usage of it)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] yokozuna:
Bingo! Probably Android Assistant (BTW, which I rate high) along with the rest of conditions alt together spoil hardware rendering. Coincidence, but definitely annoying.

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] bobgeneric:
For me the battery drains is normal.

Did you wipe Battery Status before install the ROM?

Did you turn on the Ultra-brightness?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] yokozuna:
I installed the newest nightly (from the 7th of December) and now 3rd party apps work with camera. No more problems with freezing, errors and so on. Tested with two apps - Scan and QR Droid.

As for battery drain (nightly from the 3rd of December) - something weird happens here. The "vanilla battery drain" is definitely above average. Put simply - it is high, esp. if someone uses the device (compared to MiniCM7). But I installed JuiceDefender Plus (in extreme mode) and believe or not the result was outstanding. Put simply "vanila, nightly" drains battery pretty much, with JDP - drains very little. I guess JDP (and Juice Defender Free) switches off some services that the programs considers not necessary in everyday life (one must switch it on manually) and I think one of them must be responsible for the drain. I will install BetterbatteryStats http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 maybe it will show what is responsible for it.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] green2005:
Hi, i have random reboot too i try to put 3 but when i reboot it stays on standart again, how to save it ?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Well, sorry to say, you can't. The options "Disable HW overlaps" and "Limit Background Processes" switch back to stock state everytime the phone reboots. It's a little annoying to have to go there everytime, but it works, so i don't mind.

As for battery drain topic, mine is normal, and it can be perfectly controled by managing witch apps start with the system, freezing apps i don't use, having a task manager running set to auto-kill every half hour, and when i have it on stand-by (especially overnight), set it to "only 2G network". Of course, having GPS, Sync and Data Connection turned off unless i need them, really helps, but that is common sense.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] dvd52:
For me the 3rd party apps don't work with camera!!! I try it with Lapse It pro and with airdroid but camera crash!!! :(
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Heronger:
Just updated the MiniCM website. Check it out!
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Lajbymester:
After testing this ROM for a long time, I found some bugs:

-in Trillian, if I press the menu button and select 'More', and then it shows 3 options (set status, open chat, sign off), it doesn't perceive pressing any of those (it works rarely)

-in Titanium Backup, when I go to the filters, and click on the 'Add/Remove elements...' button in the label menu, the application crashes (or sometimes the framework reboots)

-Titanium Backup needs minutes to load the application list if it is in the foreground (if I send it to the background the loading time is normal)

-after watching some videos, the system crashes and the phone reboots (I haven't tested this in the nightlies, only in the stable 4.0.2)

I really hope these will be fixed :)
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] kaotomut:
I just installed/flashed MiniCM10-4.0.2-20121207-NIGHTLY-shakira 6 hours ago. Everything works great ,fast and stable for my opinion so far,especially lock screen waking up responding is really fast just like it should be.

Anyway the partition info can't show sd card and sd-ext though. It shows Unavailable. Despite the fact that I can access the data on it by using the explorer or apps such as Explorer ,Gallery or Music player.

By the way it's so awesome.

:D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] sgt. meow:
@nAa

Since it's almost safe to say development has stopped, for some time, as nightlies are out, can you please provide the sources? Thanks in advance.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] tiestobunio:
+1 me too.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
I had the same problem with previous nightlies, but like on your case, explorer works fine and i can access the files normally. I'm in the process of a full phone wipe to repartition the sd card to have a bigger swap and a smaller ext4, and have a 100% clean install. I'll check that info to see if the problem is from the Rom.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Cancar96:
latest nightlie 7 dec is working great and there is no battery drain.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Just completed my full wipe of my X8 and a totally fresh install of latest nightlies, and i have to say... Blazing Fast! The wipe really helped out, didn't have time to test with many apps, but i can already say that the speed and behaviour of the system is amazing and smoother than ever.

Raised the Swap to 256MB, the other setting are the usual, same as i ever had, and even at 600Mhz, it just doesn't stutter.

P.S.: The information on SD Card partitions now shows everything correctly after this reinstall.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] nazz.rule:
Well it happens to me too. I've done a fresh install last night and after a couple reboot the problem reappear.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] MatthewWu:
Well, i have a question.

I found that there's new nightlies for MiniCM10 and there's 3 others nightlies again there.

If i'm installed MiniCM10 + gapps, do i need to install another 3 nightlies too?

I mean like this :

1. Install MiniCM10-4.0.2

2. Install GApps for JB

3. Install MiniCM10-4.0.2-20121129-NIGHTLY-shakira.zip

4. Install MiniCM10-4.0.2-20121203-NIGHTLY-shakira.zip

5. Install MiniCM10-4.0.2-20121207-NIGHTLY-shakira.zip

6. Install MiniCM10-4.0.2-20121210-NIGHTLY-shakira.zip

7. Reboot

Do steps 2,3 and 4 is needed?

This is a bad question (my worst question) with my bad english, sorry me :D
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] qzxi:
nope..

u can just install MiniCM10-4.0.2-20121210-NIGHTLY-shakira.zip alone

then flash gapps

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] matmutant:

you need to do the following :

format /system

wipe dalvik-cache

install the latest nightly

install gapps

reboot

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] chrissykess:
Some one know why i have random reboots? I used last nightly
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Random reboots from my experience, at this point, are mostly due to 2 things: Too much OC, or too little Ram. Try not using a very high CPU speed and limit background processes to 3 or 4, that should keep the available Ram at a nice level for the Rom to run smooth.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] matmutant:
i do not agree with this,

limiting processes kills some usefull one, not that good imo :-\

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] khestrell:
i wipe the recent apps often, and the rom is stable and smooth. but one thing i dont understand is why android couldnt do it for itself. why you have to do it manually?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Thank you for your opinion, and since you have way more knowledge than me... i'll be trying your way for the next few days :D Thank you :)

One more thing, some games are still laggy since 4.0.2 came out, the lag maintains through all nightlys (although the Rom itself is everyday smoother), but if i turn sound off, the lag almost disappears. Is it possible that something is wrong with some sound libs? Because on 4.0.0 and 4.0.1 versions, there was no lag at all, even with sound enabled and stock 600Mhz CPU speed. I tried so many things, and even did a full clean install of the Rom, with 256Mb of swap instead of 128, but all is the same.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Lajbymester:
Maybe set default settings in DSP manager if you changed them.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] ->Sid:
Recent apps shows the list of apps u last visited in a decending order, it doesn't show the apps running in background or they aren't using ram..

It just visual images list, So it doesn't matter wether u wipe them or not infact they will help you get to the apps much quicker specialy for multi tasking..

That is what I know..

Dont be lazy..

Hit the thanx button buddy..
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] Lajbymester:
I thought the same, but then I tested it. I launched an application, pressed back button to close it, and then launched it again like 10 times. The launch time was very fast because it didn't wipe it from the RAM. And when I removed it from the recent apps list, the application took much more time to start up. Also I got much RAM when I removed all the applications from the recent apps list. So it really works as a task killer and task switcher.
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] matmutant:
no, it is NOT only a visual list, try by yourself.

wiping recent apps kill them, in fact it ask the app to save its state and close (whereas killing by back button long press [if enabled] just kill the process)

it does free up memory and make system faster when it starts to lag, android frees memory by itself but wait too long before freeing and so user experience lag when it needs to free memory + write new things
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Well.. that's also a problem, i don't have DSP Manager, it eats up too much Ram for my taste and so i always delete it from the Rom zip file before i install it...

And by the way, how in the world can some of you play Fifa 12 on this??? Just installed it and it runs in super-slow-motion!... Something must be terribly wrong...

[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] 1edgaras:
what about flash player? any version of it works?
[XPERIA X8 Original Android Development] JBolho:
Yes, on version 4.0.2 and all nightlies afterwards, Flash Player 11 installs correctly and works.

On versions 4.0.0 and 4.0.1, Flash Player 10 is also compatible, but does not install on 4.0.2

Does anyone know a way to optimize graphics on JB? Since Chainfire3D is not compatible with JB or ICS, and the dev seems to not want it updated, it would be extremely useful to have an alternative way or program to do a similar job, or everytime i/we want to play certain games, i/we have to almost fry the CPU...

I accessed CWM and goto Advanced - Partitioning SD Card, i choose this setting :

Ext Size : 1024 MB

Swap Size : 256 MB

And i wait, about fifteen minutes or more. There's nothing happened. I unplug my sd card and insert it on card reader. (Is this a bug?)

MiniTool Partition said "Bad drive" for my microSD

Then, i used SD Formatter 3.1 and my microSD is fine.

So, i'm tried to make the partition through MiniTool and copying some MiniCM files into my SD card and install MiniCM10, it works. But i couldn't format my SD Card again (FAT32 Partition), so i format it on CWM, then install MiniCM Nightlies.

I reboot and my sd-ext is missing. What's happened?
