[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Patrol619:
I think that, all in all, launcher redraws is caused by low ram. I went back to ICS, because after entering any app launcher gets killed, walkman gets killed too when entering some app etc. The ROM became unusable. This is how the situation goes on ICS:

On JB, with the same situation (Settings, Greenify and Keyboard opened) i had 20-15 MB of free ram. That's riduculous. Now I understand why Sony didn't release JB for sola and U.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
xGo has 512 MB RAM too, but why only xSola and xU which isn't get JB?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 7hestarsfighter:
IMHO I think because go using lower screen resolution so it need less resources than sola, so it considered enough with 512ram. CMIIW :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
Go is mdpi-device, so it uses less memory for graphic things.

Btw. touch may comes nearer...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] chrizer4:
Ram management is way better in JB for me... Also, walkman doesn't close when I open a new app...

Just the regular launcher redraws..

crazy display during charging...

This is electrical problem. It is problem with grounding.

For example, I burned my laptop charger and I'm using a cheap one from ebay, ehich doesn't have proper grounding. Then all noise from AC goes to DC distribution and making the screen more sensitive, and because this noise is not static, but it's level changes then is sometimes work or jump or doing crazy stuff.

If you have some problems then there shoulb be some problems with the charger, with the laptop power supply or in grounding in your house...

It is not ROM or kernel related. Do your own research and you'll find yourself...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Patrol619:
So why on ICS this problem persists, while on JB it is gone?

Xperia sola@Tapatalk 2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
for me, ICS don't having it problem, charging problem is only on this JB ROM.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Maybe because of glove mode.

It's using different levels of sensitivity and then it can float between these anywhere. In JB, as far as i know, there's no glove mode and then there is only one level of sensitivity and there is no limits where it can float...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mtakween:
lol oh man didn’t u know somthing called tweaks or scripts

i got about 75MB-45[WHEN PLAYING games][withou closing/kill anything]

and i also still have the launcher problem

in ics i got about 205MB[when close apps like ur SS]-60MB

this is real i am not joking

note:i dont use scripts like supercharger - thounderblot- ETC.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
For them guys, having problems with lagging touch - try it with removing lines in /system/usr/idc/cyttsp-spi.idc, so only "touch.deviceType = touchScreen" is left there. Maybe this helps and pls. report it.

Also "sensor00_f11_sensor0.idc2 may not be needed, cause it has same as cyttsp file in it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mahdichm:
also for me everything is ok with ICS. and with this JB usb charging is OK but wall plug makes screen crazy ( using original cable and adaptor)

So why in JB Usb charging still OK ?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matood:
Maybe problems with the wall socket... I don't know where you live, how is the house done... Try yourself and post the results.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
Cleared dalvik and rebooted after done this changes?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mahdichm:
I did only this one

/system/usr/idc/cyttsp-spi.idc, so only "touch.deviceType = touchScreen" is left there. Maybe this helps and pls. report it.

and rebooted.

should i do both and reboot? and clear dalvik?

Edit >> Did both. rebooted. cleared dalvik. still no go ...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
Ok, thanks for tried this.

I couldn' t do this, because my touch never lags. I tried "normal" charger, connect it to some PCs, notebooks and even to cheap 230V-USB convertor.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
i tried to charge this phone and make some research for touch screen :

with original charger :

ICS : no problem

JB : bug!

with PC USB charger :

ICS : sometime freak!

JB : bug!

i think it's sensor problem. (or maybe i doing something wrong)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
Don't know. It could also be a problem from some app "crapping" usb-port, i.e. filemanager or somewhat which reacts on pluggin usb on. It could also be a chip-bug, due of changing some in layout of ab8500 (comparing serial-nr. may detect this...) or complete other things.

Because not all of us sharing this problem.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
OK some have Max don't!! End of the story may be its handset specific .. so let's get back to topic & no more touch freak bug discussion... if someone has solutions please post it , if don't keep to the topic ...

Cheers!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MetalheadAndroid:
New user here! After reading the comments for a while,I want to help in every way that i can.

About the touchscreen problem while charging,I followed all the instructions while installing the ROM and i don't have this problem with any charger/socket.

Some bugs found,like my contacts are not appearing right in Greek (i don't mind it much,it's still usable)

In Settings when you hold the phone horizontal the background changes into an Xperia 2011 background

Overall,better performance than ics and less battery consumption.Some lagging in HD games but with tweaks it can perform faster.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChongWiz:
Hmm.. Could somebody fix the status bar transparency bug? I mean on XP/XGO JB the statusbar is like 25% transparent. It's a small bug and besides the task switcher I think it's the only graphical glitch left in the rom.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] espaciosalter20:
Someone with time, good pc available and guts can try this for locking launcher in memory to avoid constant redraw? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1890495

But I think before, it's necessary to deodex all Rom, because when I tried to make a smooth scroll mod for this Rom, I always gets fc on ui, phone, etc. So, if anyone wants to try this, make sure that you're working with a FULLY deodex Rom.

after click on the name which i want to call -> long delay (10s - 20s) -> on the screen nothing happens -> and the call is already runnig...any solution?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
No, it isn't. You can normal use i.e. >java -jar baksmali.jar -o out_folder/ classes.dex<

No need to use -x parameter. Otherwise backsmali would say that <ou have to put -x for deodexed file.

If you are get fc than somehing other is wrong / missing.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
thats what I am trying to say since long time...

the bugs at present to be solved is

> home redraws >>>> urgent

> glove mode >>>> not urgent

> illumination bar >>>> not urgent

for illumination bar and glove mode I say not urgent coz its not an integral feature as its not present in every fone and we can do without it....

home redraw is a major problem until we remove Xperia Home and use another launcher.....

and no no touchscreen problem...

as for people saying problem with touchscreen not present in ICS i was facing this problem in ICS.....

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Fisherozzo:
You have surely something wrong; with 3 opened apps like you (i don't have greenify, but google maps opened: 10mb, settings: 40mb, xperia keyboard: 11mb), i have 143 mb of free ram.

To all: try to use my modded ksm init.d script (original made by munjeni) i have posted pages ago, it works without using too much cpu and it saves memory.

The only real problem is multitask and problems about touch while charge (sometimes, not always).

[MENTION=4727628]soulhackereborn[/MENTION]: please make a new patchset and/or FAQ so we don't have bilions of people reporting the same things.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
Can confirm it. Modded ksm works fine for me. Sorry - forgot to report this.

I see cpu idles with 5~8% (at 200MHz) only. :good:

Edit:

Btw. for redrawing homescreen, i'm trying this a the moment. The "easy way", before editing services.jar

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=31628598&postcount=24

So, input sys.keep_app_1=com.sonyericsson.home for locking the homescreen in /data/local.prop

Put an extra empty line in it before save this file. I set permission 644 (rw-r--r--).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] espaciosalter20:

Guys, I tried out this script on ICS and it works like a charm :) It provides much better RAM management. Multitasking is good and gaming is even better, no lag or anything with Temple Run 2 @ best Settings :) I'm currently off Jellybean so, you guys try it out and see if playing heavy 3D games crash anymore, or atleast any improvement on performance.

(Battery is still great, not affected by the script)

Oh, the older ones makes our phone bootloop so remember to try the latest :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] espaciosalter20:
I don't know anything about battery drain... Maybe because I use ondemandax governor, trickster mod to set some parameters and the tweaks provided by soul... And wisely use of my phone (a 1350 battery phone isn't enough to a game phone)

#No HDMI in this model (stop this JB keep seeking for hdmi)

# Set to 1 if floating touch available, for those need disable

on xGo JB, default govornor is interactive & iO is deadline, and 1000Mhz max, 200Mhz min & without init.d (http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/127170?tstart=0 ). you guys probably can try see what's different.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] BLACKFeLiX:

But many scripts include this give "segmentation fault" in JB.

It seems caused by root access?:confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:
Can someone explain where to put those lines?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
in build.prop.......

as for the HDMI service if you removed them from system apps then these services wont be started........

and as for floating touch just enabling it in the build.prop wont do I guess.......
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] dwaipayanray95:
Copy paste in your build prop file found under system
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] soulhackereborn:
Won't work Bro... I guess build.prop

If adding a damn line would activate glove mode then I would add

ro.transformer. primeavailable=1

And your phone would transform in Optimius prime!! :D

He another big mouth who don't no sh

To prove tried.. Nothing happened!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mirost1:

sorry for OT but coudn't control my self, the code to make Optimus Prime available..... :p :D :D :D :D

Okay here are my touchscreen fixes. Havent tested on JB for sola as I am on ICS.

I have taken these out of my rom Project GX and should work on JB too

Download the file from this link and overwrite the one in system/usr/idc

and add the following lines in your build.prop

windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=300
ro.max.fling_velocity=12000
ro.min.fling_velocity=8000

would make the touch screen much smoother and way more responsive!!

Well...i will (temp.) stop working on glovemode and may give them a shot.

For glove-things...short report - i could manualy enter into, but i'm not satisfied with it by now. Had to port driver from x-sp (ours don't work) and its like working with a touchpad on a notebook. You have a circle cursor and have to double-tab and hold on screen for scrolling pages - also moving around this cursor and tab for click. But with a glove on. ;) Maybe some fine tuning with sensitivity may needed.

So, its not the way we know floatingtouch from ics, its only glovemode.

Enviado desde mi MT27i usando Tapatalk 2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Anthrax:
Bro I too don't know many things about it and lots of other stuff it does....

If you wanna try it download xposed installer and install it and then install app settings app..... Which contains a setting to make apps reside in memory....

Search for both and follow instructions......

If you need the apps I will upload it as soon I get back to my PC.... :thumbup::thumbup::D:D

And as for the test I have been using it since last night and no redraws yet after gaming also....

If anybody have AMM installed go to OOM groupings and check the OOM priority of home app and try setting it to 0 and if it's persistent please upload the screen.....

As for this xposed settings is considered I am able to make it persistent at OOM priority 0 which has done the trick....

Updated: uploaded zip file which contains both the apps to work......

1) install xposed installer and then click install update... (this will update the things require)

2) then install xposed app settings....

3) again go to xposed installed in modules tab tick mark the xposed app settings....

4) reboot

5) goto xposed app settings and select xperia home from the list and then tick the resident option...

6) reboot

and voila you will be done...

This is how i have done things and all the credits go to their respective developers....

if you want to know more search and you will find the thread....

:good::good::good:

PS: if anythings goes wrong flash the Xposed-Disabler zip from the attachments.... anyways nothing will go wrong until you dont change any other options if you dont know....

the disabler zip is also available in the same thread as the original app.....
