I request u to delete the post.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AbhishekS:
I just want to know whether the Gapps are included in your ROM or do I need to flash them separately?

If you can just answer this, all my questions will be answered.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
Gapps is already there buddy. But gtalk is not added in that zip. when we flash only gtalk it is not working. so i get the complete package GAPP that will replace existing Gapp with gtalk added.

Dude,take a breath,chill. The zip you downloaded,open it in your pc,replace its boot.img with your original stock boot.img. close,copy to sd,boot in cwm,and flash the rom,that should work.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
murali, wait for sometimes if someone else also confirm the same problem than will do some mod to work.

if u already have nandroid backup of stock, u can return to ur stock if u don't like it.

i hope u have a90s.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
For Battery problem look at this experts advice.

FOR THOSE WITH BATTERY PROBLEMS:

1. After flashing your phone with a new ROM, install this software:

BATTERY CALIBRATOR on Play Store - 47 KB size

2. Then, charge your phone to 100%.

3. IMPORTANT. Remove CHARGER first.

4. IMMEDIATELY hit "Battery Calibration" (1 or 2 seconds delay is fine, wait for BATTERY voltage to drop and be stable)

5. Use your phone normally (don't charge in between) till it hits 1%.

6. Then charge your phone UNINTERRUPTED (leave it for charging all night) till 100%.

7. Unplug and start using. You should be having as little as 2-3% battery drain for 6-8 hours of IDLING now. That's the optimization of a calibrated battery.

Extra Battery Saving Tips:

* Set ROTATION to OFF if you are not using Landscape Mode at all.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Abdl:
3. Remove charger first? From where? From socket or phone?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
Abdl, its a nooooooooooooooooob question buddy. :crying:

remove charger from phone.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] pixelmania:
Tks so very much for this awesome ROM.

The video tutorial was very detailed and good. Any way to add more docks ?

I used the build prop editor to get the soft keys back.Settings soft key isnt there.

Any way to add the settings soft key.. unable to access themes and other stuff which is quite user friendly and easy to use if the settings soft key is there

But all in all , the mobile seems to much faster and the interface that you have customised is well balanced.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
Thanks for ur feedback, xperis z launcher is simple launcher with out any settings. So u don't find settings soft key in launcher.

To change wallpapers and widgets, long pressing home screen give us options.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
In cwm go to back and restore.

Take backup stock ROM before flashing.

In the same menu, u have option to restore, if u want to revert back.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] ZHAOTOUCH:
well....sometimes Nandroid backup images files are corrupted thats why they not booted ,,,,,better to take boot.img from stock firmware and replace it in to any ROM you want or any other things u want to do with that ....i face those types issue many times thats why telling you guys..... its just thoughts.....sometimes its happens with you....maybe
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pixelmania:
long press on home screen doesnt hv any options for changing themes.. just widgets, apps, wall paper ... guess will just change wallpapers when need be.

And can the build prop editor or any similar software be used to add that settings softkey ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
You mean 3dots at soft navigation bar. Except Xperia z launcher, all other application with settings option display that 3dots.

Natively z launcher was designed to be simple and faster one. So there is no theme support up to now. We will see after Sony launch its xperia z mobile.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pixelmania:
Yes. i did see so.. other apps hv that 3 dot settings thing. but not on the home screen..but as u hv said.. this launcher is simple and mainly performance based. which is awesome.. can just thank u again and again for this awesome mod.

another query.. unable to mute the keypad sounds when i click a number to dial.. can only do so if the profile is set to silent or meeting.. is there something that i am missing out ?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Abdl:

Any hope for jelly bean update anytime sooner?

Excellent Rom.

Hi.... I installed the rom few days back and everything in it is very stable.... I mostly loved the removal of navigation keys at the bottom, the display now looks really big.... Although it takes a bit of time to get used to lmt ui but now only after two days of usage I'm quite comfortable with it...

Although rom is very nice but one thing which i noticed is that there's no widget available for music player... More importantly when i have music player running and i lock the screen, the lock screen music widget comes up but doesn't control the music player.... I hope this issue will be solved very soon....

Good work....
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
Thanks asif for pointing out music widget issue. I will give flashable zip tonight for music widget. :)
[Miscellaneous Android Development] murali12:

Did u format the system before flashing
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AbhishekS:
I wiped cache, davlik cache and did a factory reset using CWM.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] shahulakthar:
If there is no change after flashing means u made some mistake. Take a look at flashing video in post 3.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Abdl:
If you are sure you followed the steps carefully and you're still experiecing the problem. Do a wipe data in DEFAULT STOCK RECOVERY not cwm,and flash again
[Miscellaneous Android Development] AbhishekS:
Doing that in stock recovery will delete the sdcard data too?

BTW I have flashed several ROMs and different devices, twice on the Micromax A90 itself and never had such an issue.

[General Questions and Answers] farazk86:
Hi,

Ive been with three UK for 2.5 years now and would like to upgrade my xperia x10 phone. Now the thing is that when I call three for my upgrade options I was given the following deals:

- Xperia T for £34 per month, 500 min, 5000 text, unlimited data.

- Nexus 4 for £28 with everything unlimited.

But the problem is that I found this deal online where I get the same Xperia T for a much much lower price at almost the same plan. When I asked this from three support they said not to trust them and they will start charging more after 6 months, or the phone is refurbished and many other reasons such as fine print problems..

Has anyone had any experience with this site? or has anyone been tricked like this?

Thanks

Well, hopefully someone will have some first or second-hand experience, but I'd try looking at customer review sites and see what people are saying (although you have to take it with a grain of salt - I've had some places/businesses I love get terrible reviews for things I've never had a problem with so...).

Thanks for helping

As we would like to express our appreciation, we will grant valuable contributors (that will report detailed meaningful defects) some credits for fringOut calls which can be used to any destination they’d like.

Compatibility:

•	In general – we do not support modified ROMs – but feel free to submit defects as we will try to solve them anyway

•	The app should run just fine on any Android device equipped with OS 2.2 and above.

Notice that the app was not optimized (yet) for Tablets so any device with a screen bigger than 7” will look less than stellar. Nexus 7” looks great though! :cool:

•	You will need a device with a SIM card to receive your registration code so if you want to use your Nexus 7” or any other WiFi only device make sure you have a phone nearby

•	Limited Landscape compatibility at the moment

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n64gk:
right hiya,

I have a sony ericsson xperia arc s running android 4.04 and my carrier is 3 but I am locked to Tesco mobile (no modifications otherwise)

so recently I have been considering whether or not to put cyanogenmod 10 or 10.1 onto my phone, but currently do not have enough faith in my abilities and so have a few questions and stuffs :good:

so first off I haven't of yet installed any custom things onto my phone and have no experience doing so. I roughly know the processes involved and just about know how to do it but I am scared of bricking/destroying my phone.

soooo

1. how easy is it to brick your phone ( no sarcasm please) as in do you have to be a bit special to do it, or can it happen to anyone easily

2. cm10/10.1 reviews, even better is a review of that running on the arc s

3. known bugs with cm 10/10.1

4. whether or not I should go for it

5. moral counciling on the subject

6. a quick tutorial

7. response to any other questions I may have.

thanks a bunch in advance guys!

:o

(also I am very new to the site so let me know if I am posting in the wrong place, thanks)
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 4988456:
If you can read and follow tutorials step by step then there is no way you can brick your phone. Simply if you are not sure about something then DON'T DO THIS.

Its so good I still cant believe it. Only real downside is a camera because its really ****ty compared to stock one.

No HDMI and wifi tethering also crappy camera. Tethering should be fixed someday because it works on CM9.

If you are taking a lot of pictures and if you really like quality of stock camera then I think CM10 is not for you otherwise go full Cyanogen Mod ;D

None

Lrn 2 google.

Also:

"1. Enter *#*#7378423#*#* on your phone dialer to access the service menu.

2. Go to Service info > Configuration > Rooting Status. Check if Bootloader unlock allowed says Yes"

You you've got "No" then I don't think you can open your bootloader so only custom ROMs you can flash are stock based ones.

If "Yes" then go to http://unlockbootloader.sonymobile.com/ and follow tutorial.

If you couldn't find something or if you don't understand some steps then please don't start another thread just ask in here or PM me but keep in mind that I wont reply instantly.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
Firstly - since you're carrier locked - have you checked that your bootloader unlock status = YES? Since CM10/10.1 both require unlocked bootloader.

---------- Post added at 01:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:20 AM ----------

If your bootloader unlocked status is NO you'll have to contact alejandrissimo (if I spelt it right) for a paid remote unlocking service.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n64gk:
thanks

My bootloader is available to be unlocked and I have a few other questions.

1. Is there any way to revert back to my old Rom if I wanted.to.

2. Do you think the camera issue and the others will be fixed

3. Is this an easy process to complete ( romming ) or does it take a reasonable amount if skill because I am a complete noob
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
1. Yes - it's called a nandroid backup, and we recommend you back up every time before flashing anything so if you screw up you can always retire the backup (providing, of course, you can boot into recovery, failing which you've to flash a stock ftf file which will reset everything to factory settings including root.) Kernels still have to be flashed on a computer though, so you can't restore any nandroid backup, it has to be compatible with the kernel. So far, there's no way of flashing kernels on SE phones.

2. Nope don't think so.

3. Not if you read the OP, do research beforehand and especially important: read the general section. There's a lot of info there on installing ROMs/rooting/bootloader unlocking etc etc etc
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] n64gk:
again

sorry to be so nooby :fingers-crossed:

is there any app I can use to fix the camera

does cwm just backup my boot image or does that also back up my user files

does nandroid do the same

and also if you guys have successfully installed 10 or 10.1 on your device is there definitive set up process you could send me a link to that you know for a fact works that you may have used
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tangosierra_:
For cm10,1 you can use ucam from the play store to fix the camera orientation. No idea about cm10 I havent used it

cwm creates nandroid backups which backup the whole ROM but not the boot.img (kernel)

yep standard installation procedure for all ROMs:

1) flash kernel (if applicable)

2) reboot into recovery (power+vol down)

3) wipe data

4) wipe cache

5) advanced > wipe dalvik cache

6) mounts and storage > format system, this is optional but I do it just to make sure

7) install ROM

8) reboot into system

What? Say that to Lupus v7 kernel on my Arc s. If its not custom then I don't know what is.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ----------

Picture quality depends on camera drivers which are part of ROM so no you cant fix it with an app. We can only hope for sony to release source for camera stuff so FXP team can port it to CM.

CWM is custom recovery that can flash zip files and create nandroid backups. Nandroid backup is a backup of all system and user files excluding a kernel.

Start by opening your bootloader then download CyanogenMod ROM file for your phone. Copy zip file on your phones sd card, flash kernel then boot into CWM wipe all and flash zip file.
