[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Vilo76:
Well, after 2 weeks with ICS I must moderate my initial words.

Even if I do not have any of the above issues, I am actually very disappointed by the global system response.

The thing that is the most disappointing is that I'm coming from a Galaxy Gio, and ICS/JB custom ROMs was WAY smoother on the small GIO than on the SOLA.

The GIO is a single core 800MHz with 256Mo of RAM versus 2x1000MHz with 512Mo on SOLA !

WTF ?!

As mentioned above, even the basic things (calls, SMS) are laggy !

This is not acceptable.

I have installed V6 Supercharger (100% supercharged) but I don't feel ANY difference.

Init.d scripts are not better.

I will go back to GB to make some comparative tests on smoothness.

If GB don't give me satisfaction, and because my bootloader is undelockable so no custom ROM for me, I will say bye bye to SOLA.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mouse256:
Does anybody know if it's possible to turn off the reply-with-a-message feature if you get a call?

Reason for this is the floating touch. I keep my phone in a sleeve. If it rings, the screen gets activated, and so is the floating touch. But by removing the phone from the sleeve you normally can't accidentally touch something, but because of the floating touch you can "touch" trough the sleeve. And I end up answering almost all my call by a message :(

I could completely turn off the glovemode too, but I actually use it (I drive by bike to work ;) ) and like it. I must be one of the few that uses it for something else than showing off :)

i think i have issue in my battery or hardware problem but the main problem is their is no official care center of Sony mobile in Pakistan. and battery is not user replaceable. .

so i am hopeless now :)

I have stock ICS + root (locked bootloader) and, from when I bough the phone, I have been experiencing lag problems (sometimes I had to wait a lot of seconds before to be able to make a call or to read an e-mail).

Now I applied Aggressive Memory Tweaks through System Tuner app and now my Sola is really much better without any lag: the reason was related to low free Ram.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SharpnShiny:
This happened to me all the time, it drives me crazy. The phone can't perform a basic function such as telephony because the software is ****. I emailed Sony *again* about this and demanded they consider this. I paid €300 and phone can't answer a call properly, it sits buzzing stupidly. I'm not sending it to any repair center, if you Google this you see quickly it's common problem on their 2012 phones. A Sony guy in the forum even told me there is a RAM problem on the Sola on ICS. The first time that I miss a call from work becuase of this I will throw this phone at a wall and never buy Sony again.

I'm convinced that my phone did this more in ICS than GB, so I have reflashed GB and will test it again. So far, so good.

Can't root Sola ICS :(

I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post in or not (so sorry if it is!!), but unfortunately, since I'm noob, I can't post on the developers posts :(

I've gone through the sola root thread, and through 50 pages of bin4ry's main thread but still haven't seen a response to my issue!

I've installed drivers for my phone (PCC), and adb recognizes the device. USB debugging is enabled, and I've tried both mtp and msc modes but no dice

I run the batch file, am able to restore RootMe with the restore app, the phone reboots and then I get this:

Good, it worked! Now we are rebooting soon, please be patient!

Waiting for device to come up again...

Going ot copy files to it's place

mount: permission denied (are you root?)

You can close all open command-promptsnow!

After reboot all is done! Have fun!

I rebooted the phone but i don't have su command in terminal and superuser shows that su binary not found.

I'm running Android 4.0.04

build: 6.1.1.B.1.54

kernal:3.0.8

I tried bin4ry's v9 and v18, neither worked :(

please halp? <3

Boot phone, wait for factory startup.

Boot it again, check USB debug

Root using the Restore app(v18)

Power off, flash .54 kernel

Boot and it is done.

Questions!

hey guys! i have another question!

So, I got this phone two weeks ago, it was running, I believe, 2.3, a week later I updated to ics, and this weekend I rooted it...

In that time, at some point, when I would plug in an auxiliary cable, it would say "auxiliary plugged into headset jack" blah blah

It also gave me the option to automatically have an app open when an auxiliary was plugged in.

Since this weekend, I have not seen this feature come up, but I'm not sure if I lost it when i upgraded to ics, or when i rooted it.

Any idea what may have happened to it? And if not, is there a way to automatically open up an app when the headphones are plugged in?

Thank you for your advice in advance!!!

if a install a custom rom like ultimate sola using cmw

im just confuse if how can i get it back into stock rom?

do i need to flash? or can i update my phone again in pc companion?

anf how can i make a back up of my system using cwm?

just having precautionary measures before using custom rom in my sola ..

thanks mates!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] plageran:
1. yes you can but you will need flashtools and stock firmware for your sola, pc companion willl screw up your phone if you running custom rom's so stick to flashtools

2. there is a recovery for locked bootloaders, (my phone is still locked) search sola forums for recovery on locked bootloaders, you will need root in order to install it.

hope this helps both of you, i still don't see a solution for the heating problem though :crying:

R: [Sola]Xperia Sola ICS Discussion - Issues,Bugs,Fixes

I disabled that setting and my Sola is quite fast with few lags at the beginning, after a reboot, but there is still the issue that, after a while that I use intensively the phone, it becomes slow and slow until it is so slow that it locks and I have to reboot it (usually between one to three days).

With the aggressive memory tweaks, it remains completely lag-free until it suddenly locks after some days (my Sola is always switched on): up to now, I don't know how to fix this behavior and I'm still investigating by freezing apps and see what happens.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sapphire7:
yes, you can get back to stock ROM, lookup for how to unroot Sola on youtube or XDA..

you can flash via flashtool and if you are on a kang based on Stock Sony ICS you can get OTA.. I am on 6.1.x.10 and have an OTA 6.1.x.54 available to me, however if I update via OTA, i will lose root access and will have to root again..

so stick to flash tool..

for locked boot loaders, 6.0.1.2 non-touch CWM is available, once you flash CWM via pc.. you can boot into CWM recovery (press vol up when sony logo comes up) and select backup option.. its that easy..

R: [Sola]Xperia Sola ICS Discussion - Issues,Bugs,Fixes

I think that lags and slow down after some time of use are due to low RAM: when the Sola becomes quite slow, with a task manager I see that there are a lot of logcat process that take about 1-2MB each.

The logcat number grow with the use and they remain in memory: even using a task killer, it is not possible to kill them.

The only solution is to reboot the phone: is there anyone that know how to fix this logcat issue?
