For battery i'm trying this app from the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rootuninstaller.batrsaver

Guys try it, it may help with battery:)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] djkk16:
guys i am a bit confused as to which build to download from the first post as which one is stable ? i was thinking of installing MIUI5 3.9.6 (by kosmos2011) ... does it work alright and is it stable ? any sort of help will be great or if you can recommend any other build i shall be grateful. one other thing does this rom work on jb or ics only ?

waiting for your reply
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Faaipke:
Yes, that one's very stable. It works very well and very smooth.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] djkk16:
Okay between i got stuck on the instuctions part 4 it says that if you are or ics then to follow that part but skip it if you are on jb. am on jb so i should skip it?

Btw if you are using this rom what kernel are you using?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
Hi bro

First of all almost all cm based rom have kernel included in zip and this one is provided with phantom s power saver

Then u re always better to come from latest stock ftf, when u flashing a cm miui or whatever custom; in order to get latest baseband... then its up to you :D

And yes skip

I did all the setting changes but nothing

It was laggy at first especially at the home screen and while opening folders

but after a few days and reboots, it worked perfectly :D

i had put in build.prop and sysctl.conf tweaks too but i'm not sure if it's making any difference

I know this question is probably ridiculous but i never done any kind of modification on my phone before.

When flashing MIUI, where should I place the ROM.zip? the whole flashing process is through the phone, not pc? i never done anything in recovery mode. how does it work? haha
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ahki767:
Put it in your sdcard, boot into cwm and then flash it from .zip. You can find better instructions if you look around the forum.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Marcela K.:
Ok, did it. Followed all the instructions: rooted, installed CMW, back up, wiped all data and cache, installed .zip and when i rebooted i have a black screen. I can't go back to recovery mode... if i press power button it vibrates but that's it. when i connect to pc or charge a red light keeps flashing. again, nothing happens.

What did i do wrong? :(

---------- Post added at 11:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:41 PM ----------

ok, i think i might know what went wrong. when i connect to Emma to reflash to stock, it says my phone is locked and i need to unlock the bootloader first. but how the **** am i going to do this if i cant access anything? did i ****ed up my phone completely?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
[MENTION=5445243]Marcela K.[/MENTION]

u download stock ftf 1.100 or 0.400 jb

then in flashtool u tap lightning icon and flashmode ;wait flashtool say plug into flashmode...phone off u hold vol- while u plug usb led is green ready to flash ;)

u softbricked ur device and lil advice; do that before battery ends up! cuz u flashed a kernel wich is not working (yet cuz ur not on unlocked bl) on ur device ...and when u plug it into the wall; thats kernel wich saying ok battery charge...u know what i mean? if u don t do it soon u may hard brick it and its more complicated to come back from this one. ;)

Hi :)

I would suggest to read up a bit more, if you never have flashed a custom rom.

We can help you get this rom working, but you need to know the basics first, ok?

So, please go to this thread and read all the explanation in the first posts, then bookmark it for later :)

(I know its for xperia s, but its all the same on p)

U need to unlock your bootloader to flash this rom!

This voids your warranty!

Then, come back to this thread and read the first 3 posts, especially the 3rd one.

Here is the short version of what to do now, if anything is unlear, ask BEFORE u flash anything, ok?

1. Forget about Emma, use flashtool.

2. Flash jelly bean stock firmware with flashtool (.ftf file)

3. boot your phone. It should be ok now.

4. Follow the instructions from 3rd post of this thread exactly.

Hi,

Can you base your new builds on XNovathor or CM10.1 instead of CM10 so the network and other issues with CM10 are resolved?

Thanks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
i don t think its that easy bro...look cm10.1 available for our device is built by percy, theres no other sources for now ...and this one have bluetooth issue wich take a lot of time to fix...

means kosmos have to build cm10.1 from source...like percy did, wich take a lot of time too.And assuming without bugs or else find bt bug in percy's cm10.1...

means what? he has to do his own cm10.1 then build miui on it...not sure but...thats a lot of work no? ;)

I tried Illumination bar/ beats light .but nothing works

---------- Post added at 01:44 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:30 AM ----------

dont worry man, that hardbrick i xperienced and it got a very easy solution.

press the power and the volume button. It will vibrate 3 time and will be shut off.

flush the phone using the stock ftf file and after the finishing it will not boot.not even blink. Plug it in the wall ..... wait for a lil bit like 30 min or so. again press the power button. Thatz ok. Now you are on stock.

I experienced that horror at the very first night i bought da phone by trying to install CM in a locked bootloader. The 2nd thing i did after the phone was back, using the flush tool to unlock my bootloader. that was easy like a fart. :cyclops:

No.

Thanks for the link! I added it to 3rd post so others can find it easily.

I dont use wifi hotspot or bt tethering, I add it to the bugs list.

you are using phantom kernel? I think its a kernel bug. Its working on 3.8.30 version which has percy's GNU kernel.

I did some testing by myself with 3.9.6. First, I need to mention that I changed the kernel back to the one from 3.8.30 (percy's cm10 kernel). Yes, the governors are missing in that one, but the leds work. And phantom kernel has not been updated in a while.

So the screenshots here are with percy's kernel:

Lets take a look at the diagram first:

(dont ask me why its going up first without charging, or why its awake in the middle of the night once :cyclops:)

I left it on airplane mode over night and as expected, zero wakelogs over night, no drain. :)

I turned off airplane in the morning, wifi on, wifi-in-sleep was set to "always on".

Result: lots of wakelogs, lots of drain :(

After that, I turned switched wifi-in-sleep to "never".

You can already see the line go almost straight again after the switch was made...

That wifi bug also prevents the phone from entering deep sleep mode when the screen is off.

See the second screenshot from cpu spy, the cpu stays on 200mhz. The long deep sleep period on that screen is over night (airplane mode). After that it stays constantly on. Compare that to the times when i used the phone (screen on time)...

btw, the solution may be posted already by dimon2242 in the GNU kernel thread:

For now, turning off wifi-in-sleep on 3.9.6 when using percy's kernel seems to work for me :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stothegee:
Nice ;)

I wanted to share some stuff I found, too :highfive:

● 2 new keyboards

The one in 3.9.6 does fc on other languages for me, so I replaced it. The one from the 2nd post works too, but hey :laugh:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stothegee:
I hope you mean cm10, not cm10.1... but anyway guys:

DONT FLASH A RANDOM CM10 KERNEL FROM XDA!! IT WILL ALWAYS RESULT IN A BOOTLOOP!!

I thought this was clear to everybody, especially as it was mentioned in this thread already. Please always read before you flash...

MIUI needs a special kernel to work. All the kernels included with the roms are recompiled by the dev to load shelld service at boot.

Without this modification to the kernel, it will not boot!!

thanks for your screenshots! Battery drain was also discussed in this thread already, so I hope you read all the replies so far?

Now, looking at your screens:

1. There are times when your phone is not awake (sleeping) and during that time, there are almost no wake ups. = GOOD

To be sure it entering deep sleep, you can use the cpuspy app. You can also use better battery stats to find apps that constantly wake up your phone and "hyberate" them with an app called greenify

2. When your phone is awake though - and on the last screenshot also when its not - its draining battery VERY fast = BAD

This is unusual, try a full charging cycle (empty battery, then charge to 100%). This will automatically reset your batterystats.bin

Could be also a governor thing, if its constantly on "performance" governor, it will lock the cpu at 1GHz, causing huge drains.

and here are my last 2 screens from the cycle I posted earlier, just for comparison:

I only use MIUI and always end up with around 1 1/2 to 2 days of usage. This time ~40 hours.

Now as much I like to have all the gov/sched from phantom kernel, I actually prefer an updated, stable kernel like percy's. And the led bug alone was enough for me to make the switch.

I also tried the link I posted for the 3.8.30 rom. The post on the 4PDA forum was deleted :(

I dont have the direct link of the file hoster anymore, so no way to download the rom :(

Here is the a mirror of the kernel (GNU kernel by [MENTION=4913184]percy_g2[/MENTION] modified by [MENTION=5445872]kosmos-2011[/MENTION]): DEVHOST MIRROR

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
Wich gov/io r u using?

Did u wipe battery stats.bin with battery calibration app?

Then when its done it needs cuple of full cycles to get back normal

Like u empty it to shut down then when device is off u charge it for a night ~7-8 hours

U also could use eco mode in miui power management settings...

Do that and come back with how u feel it then...

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] stothegee:
yes fastboot or flashtool, sorry I should have mentioned. I just extracted it from the zip of 3.8.30.

wipe cache and dalvik after that. you could also replace the kernel in the newest rom.zip and do a clean install as I wrote in the 3rd post. that's how I did it. I also replaced the keyboard in that zip, deleted some apps, added viper4andoid and the addon pack to it, then I installed that. :)

U should know that fm radio doesn t work on cm roms!

And it was already been told even in cm threads...not just because of baseband ( in order to get latest one) but also to avoid bugs it s better to always come from clean ftf before flashing cm roms or roms based on it...then for updating version its different but always come from clean install it takes 5 minutes. :D
