Make a pull request and I will do a test release for feedback.

Since I have access to goo.im this became a lot easier :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Yes, the automatic brightness is not perfect yet, have patience it is brand new.

Posting the maximum light value you can get with the name of your device will help.

I will look into the extra reboots, it is probably caused by the new pincode logic.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] daniel_m:
The latest ROM seems to work very well so far! :)

In the past I had a problem with AFWall+ either not applying rules after booting, or blocking even whitelisted apps. This seems to be fixed in the newest version of your ROM, and I am wondering if there is something wrong with AFWall+ or the ROM. I also have to activate "Fix Device Start Rules", for the rules to apply after booting, even though this option is supposed to be for CM10.1 devices.

When I woke up this morning I found that altought I set the phone in plane mode for sleep, the wifi was on all the night..., It was charging also...

Sorry for my English...

I´m using your last rom and kernel, if do you need anything else let me know...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
That just means you did enable wifi after enabling airplane mode (which is possible by design and very handy in airplanes having wifi on board).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
There is a new test release available, with experimental automatic brightness improvements by mikeioannina, please report your experiences here and don't forget to tell which device you have.

I like to make you aware that mikeioannina is busy with a clean (not hacked) CM10.1. See here and here for more details.

The PDroid / OpenPDroid merge is still going on. It will bring a lot of new features and performance and stability improvements. As soon as it is available I will release a test build.

And for the ones that missed it: nobodyAtall has a 3.x kernel booting. There is still *a lot* of work to do, but maybe we can finally have the real JB experience.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihaum:
Well, screen lighten is not laggy anymore, but it won't darken until the screen is turned off.

Edit:

As a matter of fact - there is about 1s delay until the screen ligthens.

Status bar hung.... first time ever happened. Kernel problem?

see attached catlog.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
This may be a display driver problem.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihaum:
I've found out that, when you instantly go to the dark place (not filtered value of the sensor is 0) the filtered value won't go down (probably because you can't divied by 0 ;p).

Edit: As for second thought the 0 should be added to the avg. value, so dividing by 0 is not the cause. Anyway, maybe there's an 'if' that says when value==0 do nothing.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] atmos929:
I flashed the 20130303 release in my iyokan to confirm that I get better battery in stand by in that release than in 20130404-2 and 20130409... also I feel that 0303 does better at freeing RAM, I usually get 120+ MB (around 200MB is commonly sighted), whereas in 0409 I would start feeling a bit of lag, more noticeably in some games and if I looked at free RAM it says lower than 90... could get as low as 60...

Anyone else seeing this?

I also noticed in 0409 (can't remember if it was already present in previous 2-3 versions) that settings -> performance -> memory management, offers settings for RAM value ranges for killing aps... I am just wondering if there's something to be done there, I kind of understand what they are for (good descriptions), but I am not sure what values should I put there...

From the zillion ROMs I've tested, I've seen that the smoothness depends on ROM's ability to free RAM...

I am using lupus v8 for iyokan, and I usually use 134-1209, Smartassv2, SIO

Any thoughts?

On the other hand, this ROM is awesome... thank you very much for your efforts (and the CM community). Cheers.

I have this problem at DroidWall too.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] KopiJahe:
Mango, tested in dark room with flash light directly faced to the sensor, capacitive button's light is turned off when I turn on the flash light. Screen brightness is going up, but not going down.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] atmos929:
I looked further into this matter and found the following in this thread

So, I noticed that the ADJ values may refer to the Low Memory Killer parameters... so, I changed them from their original values which are 15, 20, 25, 33, 38, 46 to what's in that post: 0, 3, 6, 10, 12, 15... marked "set on boot", rebooted... and seems like I get good free RAM again :)... which is weird because what I understand from those params is that you set the minimal values of free RAM, and I set them lower... :/

I want to look if these values have changed in build.prop of both versions of CM10_Extended, but I'll do so later, and also check about that second group of settings... I am actually a bit busy at work right now ;)

I hope this provides some insight.

Cheers!

12276 / 4900 lux 1,00 mA

Xperia Mini Pro SK17i

edit: still no automatic brightness decrease with the latest update @ mango (it decreases after lockscreen)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tobi24:
Reboot with bright light :D

I just flashed kernel and ROM from your mango test-release cm-10-20130410-UNOFFICIAL-mango.zip

After turning on automatic brightness, the screen directly turned "too bright" for my understanding, since it's night and I'm sitting in a room with dark dimmed light. Then as soon as I move the smartphone directly below a bright lamp, my device reboots. Tried 3 times so far, everytime the smartphone sees bright light, it suddenly reboots.

Maybe I'll give this CatLog app a try tomorrow (never used something like this before) in order to be able to show you a log-file.

This issue has been already mentioned few post (pages) before.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
This appears not to be the problem.

Try these automatic backlight settings and let me know the result:

Light sensor filter

- Enabled: yes

- Window length: 2s

- Reset threshold: 400 lux

- Sample interval: 2s

Light levels

- Use custom: yes

- Screen dim level: 10

- Edit other levels: load defaults

- Allow light decrease: yes

- Decrease hysteresis: 10%
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
This is basically not true. Unused RAM is wasted RAM, because caching applications/data increases response and decreases battery usage, because applications and data do not have to be loaded again.

Edit: If you want a lot of free RAM, you can increase the low memory killer values, but don't complain here about lags and launcher reloads.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Problems with DroidWall should be reported in the DroidWall thread.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
I cannot reproduce this problem.

Do you have this problem with the latest release version too?

Without logcat/last log I cannot do much about it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mihaum:
After these changes screen lightens and darnkes with a lag between 0.5-1s, which is acceptable for me ;)

All now I miss is the smooth changes between levels ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] atmos929:
yeah, I know... I've read about how freeing RAM is useless in several threads here in XDA... but then again, that's what I've observed from all the ROMs I've tried... and as a user (I am no developer) that's the only difference I've found between ROMs in which I get smooth experience and ROMs in which I don't... for starters all ICS ROMs start lagging and if I check free RAM, it falls below 100 MB... it's usually 80 and as low as 60...

There are only 2 ROMs in which I could always have smooth experience all the time, one is a GB ROM, and the other is CM10 extended... and both managed to always have around 120 MB or a bit more of free RAM. I know there can be more factors that affect performance, I am sure there are.

but in latest release of CM10 extended I've been getting 80 or 60 MB of RAM and sometimes becomes laggy. So I what I am trying to say is that if has there been any change that could affect this? is there any difference in OOM params between 130303 and 130409 releases?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
There are two things that may be related:

FXP changed a setting not long ago

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] aftergr:
I installed several roms on my mini but this cm was the first cm/fxp i installed

I was thinking to test also fxp9.1 but i dont want to lose that!!!!!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
If you don't have a specific reason to use CM9, for example outdated apps, you can save yourself the trouble.

Finally, i press the 'call'' button and the pad comes up immediately!!!!!

Noone stock base rom does that, even with 4.0.4

What i've missing all this time!!!

P.S. Is a way to change jpeg compression to 100%

---------- Post added at 06:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:45 PM ----------

I wanted only to test(before installing your rom) as i was sure that i will be not happy with jelly bean(as i was the same with 4.0.4 and i was ready to return to 2.3.7)

Totally wrong, i am totally staying :good:

in supercharging i want:

launcher strength: Die-Hard

multitasking mods: yes

bonus preserver: yes

(all option is yes)

i will flash this rom now, after finish flashing i hope someone supercharging my services.jar.. hehehh..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] atmos929:
I am using Lupus... I'll check release notes there to see if that new low memory killer is included... but I doubt it.

I may use the embedded kernel to check if it's better there.

Interesting...the change states the max hidden apps is increazsed to ten... I may try just deleting that line from build.prop and see if that changes something.

Thank you M66B, I'll let you know my findings. :)

1st question

Can i move2sd all the applications?

Offcourse i see the feature under ''applications'' but for example i cant move antutu(which i start to hate:p )

Do i need to use a 3rd part app, like link2sd?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Echelonex:
The ROM is perfect, but there is just one thing that really bothers me...:/

Is there a way to make status bar transparent...? Can you add that as an option pls...? :(
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Not using the settings, maybe with a build.prop.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Only if the app developer allowed it.

With link2sd or similar you can move any app.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Echelonex:
Hi i tried to make transparent status bar myself and everything went well without errors while decompiling and recompiling but statusbar is still black...

I did everything from this guide: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1814441 and http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1930777

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tobi24:
Reboot with bright light :D

I didn't try the latest stable realease version so far - I updated directly from the last "non nAa kernel" version ~FXP213 (March 30) to your latest nAa kernel test-version.

I tried to record a log-file with CatLog now, but since the device reboots as soon as I put it under a lamp, it seems like it can't store it. I get the message "no saved logs found" when I try to open a log within CatLog. The only thing I was able to do is copying the things CatLog was writing while doing NOTHING to the clipboard - but I can't record what hapens when holding the device under light. Please find this log attached, in case you want to take a look at it.

But it's not that important, as long as I turn off auto-brightness, everything seems to work fine and I can use my device in the brightest light without rebooting. I can either test the last stable release or wait for the next stable one as well...

Oh btw. I noticed that the "screen switch-off sound", that I reported as delayed when pressing the power-button for standy-mode, totally disappeared now. No sound anymore. It's nothing of importance of course, just wanted to mention it.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tobi24:
I do have these symbols, when pressing the Sym key. I don't know if I can help you or what the problem is, but maybe we can figure something out nevertheless. I'm using a QWERTZ layout, here's as screenshot of my Language & input menu:

What is your setting for the physical keyboard there?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Make me a list of symbols and I will add them.

See here for the current symbols.

Did you notice you can scroll the SYM popup?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Next time you can try in a terminal with superuser powers after the reboot:

cat /proc/last_kmsg

What you also can do is run adb logcat from your desktop computer while your phone is connected over USB.

To install adb on a Debian based linux:

sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb

i'm using CM10-20130409-coconut..

1. why i can't change I/O scheduler? when i change to noob/deadline or other always back to SIO..

2. also i can't change the undervolt value, always back to default value..

changing min/max frequency can work properly..

i'm still using kernel Lupus JB v3.. is this kernel causing all my problem above? should i use kernel from zip or original nAa kernel?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Always use the kernel from the ZIP.

Edit: explanation: the kernel is slightly modified to give the extended settings permissions to make changes
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] robbayani:
allright .. hope working properly..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tobi24:
Reboot with bright light :D

Please find the result from cat /proc/last_kmsg attached. I executed this command directly after my vampire-device was rebooted by bringing it from a darkened room into daylight. Since the log is full of "Smartass: frequency change failed" messages, I just want to let you know that I didn't change anything in the performance-menu, it's just your freshly installed test release from April 10.

Regarding the 2nd option "adb logcat on linux": I have no experience with linux at all (never saw a running linux system^^), just MS DOS and Windows. With a Google search I found out that there is sth. like adb logcat for Windows as well, but I would have to install the huge "android sdk" and probably all this is pretty complicated for a non-programmer like me.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] robbayani:
after install kernel from zip, then flash rom & gapps JB, then wipe cache & dalvik => still on CWM then select reboot to system now my phone always automatically reboot to CWM!! why??:silly:

help me to reboot to the system..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
The only interesting message is:

as3676 0-0040: Shutting down AS3676

I will see what I can find out, but I still would like to see the logcat too, so please install adb and run from the Windows command prompt:

adb logcat

and reproduce the problem.

It is possible to install adb without installing the Android SDK, see here.

And maybe you should try a Linux distribution one day, for example Ubuntu (there will be a new version this month).

The preview of Ubuntu for phone is running already on Xperia 2011 device ... see here for details.

I am not a Linux fan boy, I use Window for my profession (Microsoft.NET developer), but at home I use Ubuntu only.

So, all extended ROM's are built on Ubuntu (goo.im also runs Ubuntu servers).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
Just reboot one time more should get you to Android, if not please let me know.

After 1 day of testing everything i can say that the rom is awesome!!!!

No fc's, no freezes, smooth, floid and great performance on 3d games

Only 2 things i missing, but offcourse even without them i totally stay with this rom, only it would be the best

1. The new sony gallery that stock rom have

2. Better performance with camera/video, especially at compression. Plus, the sound of video is very low

My 2 cents :cool:

Most excellent JellyBean ROM so far for my Mango

Hello Marcel,

Thank you for your efforts in keeping the old Xperia's alive and kicking. I have to say, after flashing your latest test ROM on my Mango, it's like having a new phone. It's incredible how smooth (and silky :P) everything is now.

So far, I have only three gripes:

As soon as I enable automatic brightness (after I exit the Settings page and get back to using my phone), the phone suddenly reboots.

The darn spinning compass in Google Maps.

I'm missing the Romanian symbols for the physical keyboard (I get them on the soft keyboard), is there any way they could be added? They are secondary symbol, found on the original Xperia keyboard by long pressing

Thank you very much!

P. S. I just had a sudden reboot while registering on Instagram...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
1. This is CyanogenMod, not stock ROM, meaning that it is not the intention to do this and that it will probably not work

2. Sign the petition referenced in the start post
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
1. This is a know problem I couldn't reproduce so far. What device do you have?

2. See the start post

3. This is not supported by CyanogenMod

Reboot: provide with me a logcat and a last kernel log (see a few posts ago about how to).

Edit: what ROM version did you use?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] inkanyamba:
Thank you for the very quick reply.

I had the sudden reboot when enabling automatic brightness on SK17i/mango.

I know about using an older version, but I was wondering if there is any way the we could investigate this and find to a fix. It's a bit strange that it only happens on CM.

This is sad, so you're saying that even if I get my hands dirty, there is no way to add extra symbols to the stock CM keyboard for the physical keyboard?

Again, thank you for your wonderful work.

P. S. I'm attaching the last_mksg log for the Instagram reboot.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] M66B:
1. I will look into it

2. Several people, including me, already tried, but you are free to try again

3. It is possible to make, but it would be some work, but I am not going to invest time into it, sorry
