If kernel taking long time to boot, it is usually related to the init.d scripts that runs while booting kernel.

So, if you want to boot faster (or if you ever want to sacrifice your rom's performance), you can simply delete the scripts in \system\etc\init.d folder:p

With this the boot will become fast, but the performance of rom will decrease:good:

Hope this helps...(just my opinion, I'm not a dev afterall:p)

This would be as it is. No workaround I suppose.

I used sjb 4.0. That was so smooth interface and anything. But my ROM was not enough memory. Then I loaded lupus v8 kernel and ultimate hd 5.0.1. Now my phone's interface too laggy. I try some tweaks but I cant that. What can I do for smooth interface? My phone is Neo MT15i

Messed up partitions

Hello,

my Neo mt15i run stock gingerbread 2.3.4 before flashing. I unlocked bootloader, rooted, and then installed cyanogenmod 9.1 (stable). It worked but i could not use wifi and signal was very poor so i googled for solution. I found out that changing baseband should help so I flashed from basebad .64 to .72. Phone got stuck on booting cyanogen animation (for 1 hour). So I decided to wipe and install cyanogen again from the beginning. Now that's when the troubles appeared.

"wipe data/factory reset" output:

Formatting /data...

E:format_volume: no MTD partition "userdata"

Formating /cache...

Formating /sd-ext...

No app2sd partition found skipping format of sd-ext

Formating /sdcard/ . android_secure...

Data wipe complete.

"wipe dalvik cache" output:

E:failed to find "userdata" partition to mount at "/data"

Phone is stuck at booting animation. Any suggestions how to fix the partitions ? Thanks.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] karanrajkapur:
Flash stock ftf. Then reflash your desired ROM.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] sanka2701:
Thanks karanrajkapur,

I installed stock ftf and phone booted. Then I rooted it and installed .72 baseband (recommended for cyanogenmod 9.1). On stock FW wifi worked fine but after I installed cyanogenmod 9.1 I have problem with connecting to wifi. It permanently keeps reconnecting.

process goes like:

- wifi is discovered with full signal

- I try to connect to wifi and enter the password

- then wifi signal drops down to minimum while obtaining IP

- it stays as saved for split of a second and goes to obtaining IP again

I tried:

- deleting files in /data/misc/dhcp

- repairing with some wifi fix apps

- set permissions to "execute" by "user" "group" and "others" for system/etc/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-run-hooks

neither one helped. Any other suggestions ?

Switch to JB. With Fusion or SuperFusion kernel. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] sanka2701:
assert error

umm I gave a try to both kernels but they dont seem to work with hallon model.

I installed cm10-hallon mod but i got the assert error :

assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "MT15i" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "MT15i" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "MT15a" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "MT15a" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "hallon" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "hallon");

so in cm10 zip I modified file META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script ( 1st time tried deleting those assert lines, 2nd time I replaced them by assert code for haida - results were the same) but then I get error message:

E:Error in /storage/sdcard0/cm-10-20131224-FXP-hallon.zip (Status 6)

Flashing the kernel without installing new rom did not allow me to turn on wifi at all.

EDIT:

Fixed Status 6 error by replacing new lines charactrs by unix EOL characters in updater-script. I am now running SuperFusion kernel and cyanogenmod 10 ROM by FXT but it wont let me to tun on the wifi.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Afaik super fusion had modules built inside so there shouldn't be any problem... Try switching to fusion 5.5 and flash its modules...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] sanka2701:
I managed to get the wifi working by deleting the "modules" folder in /system/lib (and rebooted ofc). That allowed me to turn on the wifi but the cycling problem with obtaining the IP remains.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] MiraiXu:
Try to flash stock ftf with baseband 77, and try with custom rom again (Guys, correct me if I'm wrong:p)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] karanrajkapur:
Flash the ICS ftf or just the 77 baseband. And then follow up.

I really need help

I flash the rom Cream Cramel™ 4.4.2 Xperia z2 in the link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2664377

I did all the steps (full wipe, format system, cache, data; flash rom and gapps), I also flash the kernel inside the zip

But it got stuck in bootscreen, I was wait almost 1 hour.

Did I do something wrong?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Is your device a NEO or a NEO V?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] DKTK:
I'm using Neo V. I have installed many rom but this rom, I don't know why. :crying:

Now it's stuck at bootscreen, I flash back to .587 and wait your answer.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
By bootscreen do you mean the kernel one aka the boot logo or the boot animation from the rom?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] blacXvenom:
I don't have any problem when I installing that custom ROM, I'm using Neo with Dark Kernel. :)

I want to ask my noob question. Is there any Cybershot camera for CM11? :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Nope... No cybershot cam..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] blacXvenom:
oh... thanks for your answer.

I have one more question, I tried to install Google search from Playstore on Cream Caramel™ 4.4.2 Xperia z2 cause it's not included inside the flashable zip and it's working good until I moved it from ./data/app/ to ./system/app/ with Rootexplorer cause its huge size and I need more room for other apps, then it's not working anymore, keep closing when I try to open it. do you know how to make it work on ./system/app/? cause I really need more room for other apps.

ps. I also try to move it to ./system/priv-app/ but it's still getting force close.

thanks in advance and sorry for my bad English

Problem with CyanFox ROM

Hi!

Some days ago, I flashed CyanFox rom on my Neo V phone. I really like it and it's smooth but I have some problem with it:

1) I can't use email program on my phone anymore. Actually I can open my emails on gmail and yahoo mail apps but when i want to scroll any email down, it freezes and should wait some seconds and again scrolling down and freezing and some times Gmail stops working. I don't have this problem with other programs like google Chrome. How can I fix this problem? Do you have this problem on other android 4.4 roms for neuV?

2) This rom consumes more battery power than the latest and final original kernel and rom from Sony. I disabled all of the power consuming options but I still have problem. Is it because of Android 4.4 or because of this rom? How can I overcome this problem?

thank u

Hey guys I have a Xperia Neo V and I rooted it, unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom ROM... And here my story beggins because I didn't saw that I have to be on ICS to flash this ROM and I ended up stucking on Sony Ericsson logo all the time. I can't even enter recovery because it's stuck at the logo :/ Only fastboot works but another problem is that Flashtool doesn't see the stock firmware I provided him :/ Do you guys know how to fix it?

Touches don't show anymore

Hi, my Neo got a little problem now.

I flashed Super Jelly Bean Rom, at first it's fine, but after a couple months there are some problems.

So the problem are:

1. In lock screen, i can't slide the unlock tab in first try. Like my touch is only recognized for the time i touch, then i can't drag it. I have to try to drag it for at least 5 times (yes, i count my tries).

2. In developer's option, i checked the show touches option, but it doesn't show my touches.

Like i said, the first time i flashed my phone it still works. After a couple months both problem started to occur.

Do any of you masters know what the cause to this two problems? And what is the solution?

I tried to re-flash it a couple times with SJB, but it doesn't fix it.

Although i haven't tried to flash it back to original ICS Rom.

Thank you.

Unlocked Bootloader + Spotify

Hi guys, my mum wants me to install a custom ROM into her Neo L because it is running poorly. Most good Neo L ROMs require custom Kernel or unlocked bootloader.

My Question is, does the losing of the DRM keys affect a Spotify Premium subscription with downloaded offline music listening?

I cannot mess with her phone untill i know for sure, she's a heavy Spotify user (huge selection of Oldies...). Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] :
In my opinion Drm affects fb likes in music player, fb sharing, download music info in music player.

I think it doesnt affect spotify.and u can try a stock based rom instead or get best out of ur phone with rooting and using root explorer/browser cleaning up the non required system apps (sony has lot of bloat). And customising the entire stock to ur needs. Using mods, tweaks, scripts etc. That will help u to create a custom rom for urself by urself and fully customised according to your use/choice. Good luck!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] daer2dai:
Thanks for your quick reply!

I don't have the knowledge or patience to make my own Roms, hence why i usually scour XDA for the best Roms.

(For older devices i ONLY use stock based ICS Roms)

Unfortunately in the case of the Neo L, there's not as much support as 2011 Xperias & most good Roms are ports that have bugs :(

Most of my favourite stock-based Rom ports from 2011 Xperias require custom Kernels, & have bugs like Alarm, xLoud, etc...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] 4n00p:
The problem is that not many people have Neo L so developers find it hard to test roms but there is some progress now with the 3.4 kernel it is still a work in progress but we may have KK roms soon
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] daer2dai:
I've already given up on Jelly Bean & newer Roms for older devices. I want a device that works normally, radio, 720p cam, wifi, etc because the people who will use these devices are not technically savvy (like my mum).

I'd be really satisfied with a stock-based ICS Rom that is tweaked to the best it can be. Did you know among the bugs of the original Neo L firmware is that deleting photos in Gallery do not delete their *Thumbnail cache*, thus causing photo/thumbnail conflicts? Like when a photo appears as another photo in Gallery, & deleting the *viewed* photo deletes the wrong photo underneath...

My mum is constantly annoyed, & she can't remember the things i taught her about "deleting the cache"! :P
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] 4n00p:
Haha ya even i have had trouble when i rooted and flashed a custom rom on my friend's arc S he wasnt that tech savy either I started spending more time fixing stuff that most of these custom roms have the small issues that most of us ignore. After a while I gave up on him and i flashed a stock firmware.

New to this

Hello,

I am new to all of this..

I am pretty clueless - but i learn fast....

I bought a SE Xperia Pro....(new - never used before) and what i am clueless about is

what's best for my device!

What i am basically looking for is someone who can give me best advice on what would suit my device....AND what it is that I need to do first...? and where it is i need to be careful to no brick my device.!

Kitkat, ICS or what else is out there in terms of Custom work...

I know, it all depends on what it is that i want to do with my device.....To keep it simple, all I really want is a fairly outdated Slideout KEyboard Phone (since they dont make them....and I have waited long enough for someone to fill that market gap again) with a smooth running Current/ Recent Android Version...... - Simply a 2011 Phone that's Updated on the Inside.... -

I would appreciate if someone could respond to me.

Thank you
