The strange thing is that if I try to ping the specified SUPL servers from various configurations, I only get an answer from supl.google.com and supl.vodafone.com ; but there is no answer from supl.sonyericsson.com

I may try your files and the Sebi's trick with the Vodafone server in a few days.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
They may have ping port closed. Anyway you can try LastSoul88's files - at post #1176. These are with Vodafone supl server (just like Sebi's first posts)... And don't forget to hit his 'Thanks' button ;)

Windows 7? Do you see Xperia with yellow warning sign in Device manager? (see attachment)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] etch04:
Just give me sometime cause I am using stock Rom right now. I'll install cm9 and reports back.

---------- Post added at 11:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:21 PM ----------

Yes..I can see Xperia with yellow warning sign.wat do I need to fix it?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
- Right click on the yellow icon

- "Update driver software"

- "Browse my computer for driver software"

- "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"

- Select "Android Device"

- On the next screen select "Sony ADB Inteface" (or any "Android ADB Interface", depends on what drivers you have installed)

- Confirm the warning that the driver is not digitally signed

- driver will install - at the end you should see "Windows has successfully updated your driver software" screen

- that should do it :)

just want to know if i flash from 203 to 204/205, do i need to flash the kernel every time? also should i wipe data and cache always? sorry for this silly quest.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
fxp team always provide us to make a clean install for the rom run more stable. seems i doesnt have any problem so far, i suggest you to do so. so from my opinion, start from flashing the stock rom .54:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sparx75:
I have a problem to report. Dunno if its happened to anyone else. My phone had gone into a deep sleep mode on its own, didn't respond to the power button. I had to restart it by pressing and holding the power + vol buttons. Im on FX204. Hopefully this doesn't happen again.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Yup it hapns to me whenever I install and sign in Google account and everything is restoring the light goes off doesn't respond to nothing and I have to reboot device.....

Its the famous "Sleep Death Bug" didn't know its there in CM9 until 203 release..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Sparx75:
Ah Thank God it wasn't just my phone. Lol funny thing is, it happened when I was sleeping :P. Woke up to find my phone is sleeping as well.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LastSoul88:
anyone having authenticating problem when trying to connect to wifi??

edit: problem solved after clean fresh update from .54 firmware.. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ScratMan38:
Deep Sleep Death bug happened to me one time, with FXP 203 if I remember well. I had to force a restart by long pressing volume+power.

So, now the ROM is quite functionnal... what about A2DP ? it's the only thing missing on this ROM to make it perfect for my daily use. I need A2DP to listen music through BT while riding. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jerpelea:
a2dp is quite hard but we are triing to fix it

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sheron:
can you check if Android beam is working???

i checked it and it's not working
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Vilo76:
Dear FXP fellows,

Could you confirm that luminosity sensor is not operational ?

I'm using a Tasker profile to adjust screen luminosity based on sensor value, but those values are completely screwed up.

The weird thing is that lux sensor is working good in "call in progress" conditions.

I mean the detection of "near ear" or "away from ear" is well detected and screen in turned OFF or ON accordingly.

By the way version 203 shows big stability improvements over past versions.

Tks team.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LastSoul88:
looks like the wifi problem getting back today.. emm...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thunderising:
Till now FXP 203 is the FXP version I want to stick with. Excellent performance, battery life and everything apart from the listed bugs.

Hope FXP 205 be that next rock solid version I don't want to move from.

For those having WiFi problem, Install .54 ICS FTF using Flashtool, fastboot FXP kernel (latest) and install CM9 ZIP (after FULL WIPE)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LastSoul88:
i already did that yesterday... the wifi seems ok yesterday... but today the authentication problem getting back.. thats weird...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] srprashant91:
just a wild guess here, what channel is your wifi running on?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LastSoul88:
actually i am using usb portable wifi.. i use connectify software to make a softAP on my laptop.. at home i use laptop and connect internet using broadband.. then i make softAP using connectify.. the phone can connect without problem.. then, i try using my computer at office.. here, the computer is connected through lan cable.. i use the same connectify software.. unfortunately my phone cant connect to it.. my friend's phone can connect to it without problem.. my phone on stock rom also can connect without problem.. i found this thread that connectify doesnt use DHCP.. then i follow his step by using static ip.. the problem still the same.. here is the thread.. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1310642
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Silver-7:
Did u try restarting your laptop after using lan cable? I had some issues using connectify after using lan cable, but always solved by just restarting..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] LastSoul88:
still not working...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
anybody have try connecting usb strorage here?its working for me(mean my device detect the pendrive), i can access it, i can move, copy paste the file from the usb storage to my internal/sd card but i think i have problem touching the screen. sometime i've to tap the screen twice and the same problem with scrolling..am i the one have this problem?:confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
Does the same behavior occur when you have your Sola on a charger? Have you tried different chargers? If yes, it is a known hardware bug, happens to me too :( No matter what ROM you have (so it is not specific to CM or stock ROM). I am thinking about RMA, because the phone is nearly unusable when it is charging...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
ive try toucing/scrolling the screen on charging, seems the problem doesnt appear. im not sure if this problem happen in stock rom.. i havent try connect the usb storage in stock before. so you also have the problem.. anyway what is RMA?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
It can happen only when your phone is connected to computer (it has something to do with electrical grounding of the device). See e.g. http://goo.gl/9cl32. For me it happens both when charging from computer and from wall outlet. RMA = http://goo.gl/G7Ilz
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
This is a very, very old problem existing even in stock GB roms and of course in newer stock ICS roms for our Xperia Sola :(

The same problem occurs on all stock based ROM's + CM ROM. I haven't tried any MUIU roms but I'd assume the same problem exists there too. There's no fix for it. Simply don't use the phone while it's charging.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
Someone said there it also happen with other sony device?lol. nevermind. thx for ur reply and information bro. this problem just happen sometime, not all the time anyway(also dont know why just sometime).:confused: but if there any solution for this problem, im sure we all happy for that:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
It is definitely ROM independent. Happens also in touch CWM. It is obviously a HW problem of a poor manufactured device :( On the other hand, not every Sola has it, so I will try RMA and see if my new Sola will have the same issue...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ScratMan38:
Capacitive touch screen rely on electrostatic discharges on the surface of the screen to detect finger's position. When plugging the device on another electrical device (like USB charger or computer), you may bring some more electrostatic charges on the phone, disturbing the embedded controller.

It's not only linked to the Sony devices, I faced this issue too on a Motorola, using a USB charger. The Sola may be more sensitive as it's touch controller is very sensitive (for the Floating Touch).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
ill be the first 1!!:D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
New it lol!!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rohit3221:
FXP206

CM9.1

- latest cm 9.1

- ALS (Sola,Go)

What is ALS.....??? Alternate Line Service?

What does it do?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
As much as i know its something connected to lights - backlights, autolights etc

Fixing ALS will fix some light problems and reduce battery drain a little.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cnkhanh:
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
Automatic light sensor?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Ambient Light Sensor in my opinion.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Jerry-Hins:
so many ALS answer haha ~:victory:

LOOKING forward to that ~
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
looks like the led notification fix! its now blinking!! nice work fxp team:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Using 205 many things changed...

An option in display settings Automatic Back light.. Don't remember there was one lol..

And many governors like below..

Led lights also blink but need to test it more...

Will let yal folks noe more as I come cross more features...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] behzad.bz:
Keep it up... Very very good rom... I use dis for daily use

We wait for Final release and after that CM10...

Thanks
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Cant agree more buddy, this update is very big in my opinion, so many new options.

FXP you did it again - everytime you post a new ROM there is a surprise - great work guys, great work.

Can someone told me now (i dont have much knowledge about governors) -which one is best for long battery life?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
+1 for new release...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doctor_droid:
Edited

:D because I was wrong previously
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
Oh yes! Exactly!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CappyT:
R: {Sola}[DEVELOPMENT] - CM9.1 - FreeXperia Project

Awesome rom, as always...

Runs smooth and fine.

GPS is finally fixed, the first lock took 10 seconds, after, 2-3 seconds... :D

NFC still not working :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
ALS is about USB related
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
FYI, AGPS has been also fixed in FXP205 (one of the devs forgot to put a certificate in FXP204 http://goo.gl/ov8Iy :))

LED does blink, but the interval is very long! It is LED ON for 0.5s, LED OFF for 15s - almost impossible to notice the notification :( The settings in Settings - Display - Notification light - Default does not affect the interval (I can set only color)...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Yup true but atleast its blinking has been fixed now may be FPX can fix all led issues in the next releases to come...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] WilsonML5:
Do I need to install gapps after the update, or just the rom zip?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cnkhanh:
How's the battery life, guys? :D Any inprovement?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
i prefer u make a clean install. seems i havent face anyproblem when i do.:good:

need to wait for a few days. just now charge to 100%!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
No, you don't. Just flash the zip...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kriss_Hietala:
Odp: {Sola}[DEVELOPMENT] - CM9.1 - FreeXperia Project

Now the led is bugged. Instead of keeping the light on it's just blink for a while rief moment... How to fix it? :'(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lalit387:
Ondemand is most suited balanced for best performance

You need a nuclear battery stan bro:D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thunderising:
can't wait to use it. Haven't flashed it yet because of the apps and tweaks I'm using. Putting it up as a package for everyone as usual.

FXP you've done a great job!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ahlulnugraha:
Remember, waiting is a worthy.

Let's report battery usage using different governor and our own performance setting. :cool:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Dear friend, i am used to the battery life of my phone, my question was - i want better battery life more than performance. That why what governor to use for that - interactive, ondemand? I dont even know what power save governor is?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ahlulnugraha:
Try SmartassV2 maybe, you can search here on xda what kind governors are available, some of them giving detailed information. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lalit387:
Nope smartassv2 is not yet available on current FXP release as seen in screenshot few post back may be later it will be.

Use powersave if you Dont care how your phone performs on this governor CPU frequency usage will be of lowest band I.e. 200 MHz with scaling on subsequent available band.

Ondemand or interactive consume more CPU than powersave and smartassv2

Sorry Stan if I hurt you anyway:(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
I read that both governors good for performance and battery life are interactive and conservative.

Which one is better in your opinion?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
Personally I use interactive. Give it a try :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lalit387:
May be below thread help you to choose best match....

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26884865&postcount=2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkoev:
I'm thinking about the hotplug governor... I will give it a try :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] WilsonML5:
Seems like the battery drain in standby is really improved.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
if you want to try smartassv2 on CM9, just looking at AndyX thread
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
I've never experienced such a battery drain using CM before but m sorry to say that ... drain is more!!!!

Charged it full and slept... in about 8hrs drain was 60%!!!! :banghead:

It was not the case in past where the drain was not more than 3-5%

I guess deep sleep ain't working in this CM!!

Check screenshots

With these governor settings + I had kept Max 800mhz frequency
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
im using the interactive cpu gov too. and im not having such high battery draining? till now(16 hours after 100%charging) still got 45% power with heavy used my phone.(data trafic, wifi, updating, whatsapp, messaging, phone call, etc):good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] jerpelea:
you have an app that prevents cpu to sleep

ondemand is recomanded for novathor and battery life is around 2 days
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] xxrahulxx:
Must be a problem app preventing standby. Cause my last night's drain was 3 percent. I am running FXP 204.

How long have you been running the ROM? As the battery performance improves after a couple of days of installation.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Thanks but I ain't using any app other than gaps and xda app mx player and a couple of small apps here and there that's it..

Did clean install install all wiped before n after...

Dun noe y this is happening ..

Will try installing again
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thunderising:
after installing, calibrate battery, charge to 100%. again after complete discharge (<20%) and then use for 1-2 days.

Battery should stabilize. Worked for me. I'm installing and removing apps everyday. Excellent battery life! But I refuse to move from FXP 203 as I'm so comfortable with it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
FXP206

CM9.1

-latest cm 9.1

-variable notification time(U,Sola,Go)

ALS has been added to changelogs for 205 after its release
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
But it doesn't seem to work for me :( (there is plenty of settings in menu, but none of them seems to do anything...)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
doesnt matter about the changelogs change after its release. but what is ALS actually?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thunderising:
Because it will work with the NEXT release. READ CAREFULLY once.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
Well, the changelog now says:

FXP205

CM9.1

- latest cm 9.1

- enabled all CPU governors (U,P,Sola,Go)

- better power management (U,P,Sola,Go)

- AGPS (U,P,Sola,Go)

- ALS (Sola,Go)

I am on FXP 205 and the ALS is not working. Yesterday the ALS feature was written under FXP 206 release in the changelog (today they moved it to FXP 205). So please, once again, what am I reading not carefully? :P
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Does that mean that for performance and best battery life ondemand is better than interactive on our phones?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doctor_droid:
Just install alogcat

Or terminal emulator

And see ur logcat while its being generated

If an app is coming again and again then definitely its the one draining ur battery
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] etch04:
I think fxp is right when he said that on demand governor is best cause as soon as I installed cm9 I set my governor to interactive as I read that it was better but all I got was high battery drain so I tried ondemand again and after one charge cycle I have to say this one of finest cm release.no more battery drain..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Andrewasth:
Ambient light sensor
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
Ha guys, the Ambient Light Sensor works even in FXP 205!!! I just found out the correct settings (it doesn't work with the default settings).

Wait till I breakfast and give my settings a proper testing, will report with complete guide in approx one hour :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kiristiba:
wau, looks like cm development for the little sony devices is speeding up rapidly :D

To bad a2dp still is not working. For me it is one of the most important features of my phone.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
Ok, here is the promised guide how to set up Ambient Light Sensor and automatic brightness:

- go to Display - Brightness - check Automatic brightness

- go to Display - Automatic backlight

- check 'Enabled'

- set Window length to 5s or 10s (this affects how much will the data from ALS be filtered - higher value means less flickering, but slower response)

- Reset threshold - left to Disabled

- set Sample interval to 1s or 2s (this selects the period to read data from ALS)

- check Use custom under Light Levels group

- Screen dim level - leave it to 20 or set whatever suits you (affects how much the screen dims on sleep)

- check Allow light decrease

- Decrease hysteresis - leave it to 50% (affects the dynamic of the screen going to lower brightness)

- now go to Edit other levels and set it according to my attached screens. The settings are based on my Sola's screen and my taste :) The max brightness is approx 80%.

- done, hit thanks if I made you happy :)

- optionally you can uncheck Use custom under Light Levels group - then you will have the default brightness levels. However the screen is too dark for me with these settings...

- you can tweak the light sensor levels under 'Edit other levels' to suit your needs - you can revert to default anytime using the button. You can read the actual and filtered sensor value in the top row. Max light sensor value is 949, maximum screen brightness is 255, you can even set when the capacitive buttons backlight goes on and off (only on and of = 0 or 255).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] thunderising:
Okay. Well for that I apologize. I didn't know they changed their changelog 1 week after releasing it first
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
maybe its fixed even on 205?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] smrky87:
The sensor itself is working even in FXP 205. But the automatic brightness does not work with the default settings (see my previous post, I got it working). But I would not say this is the ultimate solution - let's wait for next build ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ahlulnugraha:
Yep, at least now we can play with light sensor. ;)

update: this is my configuration of light levels, I took it from my old phone x8 and modified a bit. I got very darker screen when I'm turn my room light off. :p

Having wifi issues on FXP205 build...keeps trying to connect/obtain IP address, but finally fails to connect b/c of poor internet connection...haven't read any others reporting this error so I'm guessing I might have noobed it up...I came from stock .54 and wiped before and after flashing. Tried on multiple networks that it easily connected to before flashing this ROM...Also I'm in Korea if it matters
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] IE-coRe:
This issue is known and it keeps me from using CM9 as a daily driver cuz it keeps happening. We really need a fix for it.

Steps taken when switching to FXP205

I was on .54 with munjeni's v5 kernel before.

Did a backup with CWM

flashed the boot.img

flashed fxp205

wipe data/cache/dalvik

flashed gapps

booted

My problem is that I cant use USB tethering....

Any suggestions?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Didn't hv no wifi prob ever ... may be u might wana revert to stock n reflash CM again...

I noe u followed properly but what the heck gv it a shot once more

I guess it still dun work with CM cause since starting it never worked for me bro..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Silver-7:
205 looks great so far.

Tho notifications light its almost impossible to get noticed..very bad blinking timing and unchangeable using settings..so the unblinking old one was better I think.

Except that everything is great.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] yuskhanzab:
ive facing the same problem like u before(long time ago). here what i do and seems the problem doesnt appear anymore. >flash stock .54, let it boot properly, turn off, flash kernel, enter cwm, wipe data, cache, dalvik, battery stat, install cm, install gaps, reboot.:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ahlulnugraha:
Actually, I do full wipe before installing ROM only, and never get problem after it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rohit3221:
Ok so I again wiped my phone,cache,dalvik cache,rebooted and tried usb tethering....unfortunately it still doesn't work

So I flashed .54 India, let it boot completely, flashed boot.img, wiped my phone,cache,dalvik cache, flashed fxp205,gapps, wiped my phone,cache,dalvik cache again, booted, rebooted and still usb tethering doesn't work...

Wi-fi Tethering works just great but I cant seem to run usb tethering....

Guys any help ????
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
I guess as far as i remember & told u before that CM hasn't fixed that issue of USB tethering, so whatever you do it won't...

Correct me if m wrong!!!

Cheers
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ScratMan38:
On FXP 205, the A-GPS is amazingly fast !!

The very first lock after ROM installation has been done in 12s, with several satellites locked and very good accuracy.

Ambient light sensor and automatic screen brightness adjustment works great, but the levels are not optimized, the screen is too bright in medium ambient light.

Notification light needs a little bit more tuning.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rohit3221:
Ohh... Sorry i misunderstood ur previous post.... :banghead: silly me :D anyways looks like we'll have to use wifi tethering for now...
