go for pipi14 unofficial jb v5 rom and pantom latest kernel, no laggs, good batterylife
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
I doubt JB will have no lags, while most of the ICS roms suffer from such.

As to battery life - please define "good".
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mkrevelations:
Use the new stock firmware B.1.100 (just released!) with Sliding_XU kernel with pegasusq governor and use Ram Manager Pro and Seeder 2.0 to reduce lags, if after this, you dont notice a substantial performance improvement, I'll jump off the Eiffel Tower.

*Ok, maybe not! :laugh: :eek: *
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
How long does the battery lasts?

Also, have a link to the new FW? Will it work worldwide?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kid-Km@n:
Does anyone have screenshots? Because I am still downloading..:(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
To which post do you refer?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kid-Km@n:
I just flashed it so its cool.:)

Btw this firmware is pretty FAST!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
Flashed what? The new FW?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kid-Km@n:
Yeah
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] scapaflow1887:
For me its now MoonBreaker Rom 3.0 and Sliding Kernel 9.0!

Fast, smooth - brilliant!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kid-Km@n:
What phone is that for??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DaRk-L0rD:
Sony xperia p if I am not wrong
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pandemic:
Yeah but this thead is for Xperia U [MENTION=4872623]DaRk-L0rD[/MENTION]

And the teams rom is only for XP, so kinda useless why you come here with a rom that is only for XP.

ICS - Win Vista, JB - Win 7! And new pipis rom is giving me 2 days of usage with 4+ hours of screen on time. And Greenify is easy to set up, and she doesnt have to set up it every reboot :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] narenderreddyn:
Hello,

My xperia U is running Unofficial Stock JellyBean 4.1.2 V4 ROM. I have greenify & RAM manager free installed & i have bare minimum apps.

(No fb, twitter, maps, etc) Am using browser for everything. The thing is I'm coming from GB V3 ROM. Am just loving JB, but it lags even with barebone no. of apps & no multi tasking (ex. can't do anything if am listening to walkman). Can't go back to GB, my mind is not allowing me considering its dated looks. One more reason am still on JB is google now. The battery drain is huge. I used to get 1.5 days (100 % - 0 %) when i was on GB V3. Now its like 100 % - 50 % in just 5 hrs with minimum to no usage at all.

So my qn is, will pipi14's JB rom, solve my issues? I want apps, at least some of them like maps, fb, twitter & my mobile shouldn't fall apart with a multi tasking of 2 apps at a time.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Mikulic1802:
Yes it will, with phantom kernel its great, best rom so far for me, and i tryed a lot if them
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] narenderreddyn:
I flashed kernel before installing rom from CWM which came bundled with the rom (Unofficial stock JB V4)

Can I change kernel to phantom one with my existing rom?

If so, then pls provide me with the link.

thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] scapaflow1887:
I use Moonbraker Rom and Sliding Kernel - both are top!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
Can you supply us with a link? I didn't see that ROM before.

Also, how long does your battery lasts?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
Look at the screenshot. Not THAT'S what I was aiming at!

Thank you all for helping out.

This screenshot is from yesterday night. I can tell you that at this moment, the phone is on 51% after 1d and 17h. And as you can see I even don't bother to switch BT and WiFi off.

For me this is a dream come true.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
What rom? Set up?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
I've mentioned before, but I'll mention all again in one post for whomever want to get the same.

To start with, it's a Xperia U ST25i with an unlocked bootloader.

Flashed with Terra ROM v6.

Changed the launcher to Xperia launcher, as the one coming with the ROM was draining the battery, according to some users, so i didn't take the risk. Do note the second post stating QUOTE You won't be able to use some of the stock Xperia widgets with this launcher UNQUOTE but still supply alternative working Xperia widgets, which my wife love so much (especially the weather widget. I think it's the best).

PS: Anyone noticed we can't use the LINK buttons on XDA's editor with Google Chrome? Grrrr...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
What's the performance like compared to the stock roms in your opinion?

And why not sliding kernel v4?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
As I said before - my wife doesn't complain about lags anymore. As to what I think - I think it's a bit faster than the stock one, comparing the time it takes to access your contacts or taking a photo. But (unfortunately) I'm not using this device daily myself. It my wife's.

Heheh... apparently you didn't read the thread.

Here's a quote for you: v4 is for Stock JellyBean ONLY. v3.x & v2 are for ICS ONLY
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
No. I didn't read it properly. Lol. Just had a quick look :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
So, will you do the same for your mom's phone?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
I'm still undecided. Did you try GB rocks with the supercharged kernel?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
I've tried GB-Rocks v3 with the custom kernel. Battery still drained.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kalyan_kadari:
Use Devswift JB V3 its d bst rom i use for my XPU

Battery is better than ics........
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
All of you guys coming here and saying use this or that, and not showing any proof - I will not even relate to.

Especially those stating JB is more battery-friendly than ICS. I find it hard to believe.

I proved my setup to be (very!) battery-friendly. Now it's your turn. Don't just through out a ROM name and disappear. Show us why you think it should be used. And keep in mind this thread is aiming to a non draining and not lagging ROM.

PS: You didn't even throw in a link to the ROM.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ben36:
Until JB can video record sound it's out of the question anyway for me
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
Oh, I wasn't even aware JB has limitations (bugs?) on the XU!

So it's definitely a NO-GO.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] kalyan_kadari:
If u want a non draining and non lagging OS and device better stick to stock ICS.....

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
Just what im looking for. :D

Hello Ring C,

I own the xperia U myself, I've been searching for a good rom for this phone for quite a while now.

It came with GB stock (was ok but i wanted games like dead trigger so updated to stock ICS through sonys update program)

Stock ICS was ok but as your wife stated it lags.

I did a little research and got my bootloader unlocked and rooted my phone and had a version of stock ICS this one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2028139 all was ok, still lagged but was usable, i then very stupidly deleted the stock launcher, installed nova launcher then decided i wanted the stock launcher back for the walkman widget and weather widget (which i also think is pretty darn cool ;)) so through setting i factory reset, then phone was broken as i had no launcher :(

so i installed stock jellybean here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2284394 but battery life was absolutely terrible :( although since sony did away with the timescape ui it runs practically lag free, beleive it or not.

i then got told to install CM9 from FXP here https://sites.google.com/site/projectfreexperia/download/cyanogen-mod-9 i had to get fxp 216 as they forgot to do a fxp229 for kumquat. performance was great in the ui itself but antutu was getting below 6000 and battery life again was terrible.

so i went back to stock ICS from the link above (now my friend likes to use my internet connection to get games for his device, last time i had this rom tethering worked fine, however this time it just would not turn on, i kept getting an error)

currently im on the stock jellybean again but with phantom powersaving kernel with wheatly governor and sio (this was recomended on another thread) (battery life still sucks though) but performance is pretty sweet all around. i cant remember what it scored on antutu.

after reading all this im going to try your setup. really hope it helps, if it does i'll hit thanks, even if it doesn't thanks anyway lol.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
Thanks for sharing, DAN. I appreciate.

Do tell me what you think once done.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
Don't worry I will, I wonder is your wife still using the setup currently? how is she finding it further down the line, did like others have mentioned keeping a rom for a few full charges and discharges and the usage inbetween improver battery life further or has it remained the same as when you had first flashed the setup?

also, you changed the stock launcher, do i just unzip the terra rom and find system-apps delete xperia home.apk and paste in xperialauncher.apk then re-zip and put that on my phone then flash with cwm.

thanks.:good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
Last week, after my old work's BlackBerry was replaced with damn good Nexus 4, she decided she wanted the same. Although during the years she always wanted "small and cheap" she liked the size and the spacious keyboard, so I went and bought her one for EUR 320.

Up till last week, her phone would last over 48 hours without charging. Now, with the nexus - it's not lasting more than 12 hours with the initial setup (I made mine last about 26 hours thanks to the great Llama. I'm sure that having used it with XU, I'd get amazing results).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
WOW! :D

Really great phone choice!! I would love a nexus 4 sadly i just dont have the required funds available. (probably the next phone i get)

48 hours?? on the xperia u or the nexus 4? sorry i got confused lol

the great llama? is that a rom for the nexus 4 or an app i could use with my xperia u?

something went wrong while downloading the terra rom, im getting it again now.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
hehehe... 48 hours with the Nexus 4? No ****ing way... Of course I referred to XU.:)

This is the Llama I referred to: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kebab.Llama&hl=en

Can you check if it's compatible with XU?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
Yes of course i will, ok 48 hours sounds amazing :D :D

im not sure if you noticed (i edited my post and added it after you had allready replied lol)

i asked, You replaced the stock launcher of terra rom, do i just unzip the rom go to system-apps and delete the xperia home.apk and replace it with xperialauncher.apk, re-zip the rom transfer zip to root of my xperia and flash via cwm recovery?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
No, I didn't went through the hassle of manipulating the rom. It's a simple apk.

I don't even remember how I deleted the original launcher. I think I use a root explorer to delete it after installing the other one.

Currently I don't have the device with me anymore, so can't even check.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
nearly done

Hello, yes i can confirm that llama does indeed work on the xperia u.

I have the rom installed, and the kernel with it set to pegasus and sio, ive deleted the old xperia home.apk and installed xperia launcher.apk and the widget apk's.

allready im sure i can see the battery is lasting longer, i wasnt sure whether jellybean was draining my battery more or whether it was a placebo effect but now i can see it was.

the terra rom on its own without sliding kernel and even the stock launcher seemed to be an improvement over stock ICS its almost lag free.

im not sure of how much better it will be with sliding and the xperia launcher over stock terra. (more fun to be had at a later date i mite add, ill leave it with your suggested settings for now ring c.

thanks for the informative post. :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
It's my pleasure!

Please share with us the results...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
Hello again, after trying your mentioned setup ring c I find it drained only 4% while in standby overnight. This is an improvement over the 8% drain I faced with stock jellybean.

But as I mentioned the terra rom the way it comes seemed fine so I tried it by itself, and well lastnight on standby it drained 0% and a few moments after checking the percentage it dropped to 99%, so in terms of standby time the terra rom by itself is the outright winner.

Also if anyone cares I got 6900 antutu.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ring_C:
I'm so happy it worked for you!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DANfour20:
Oh just thought id mention, that weather widget is a battery drain, if updated every hour.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] proactix:
Hello,

I just recently Evo 4g lte from an auction on EBay. When I got the phone and turned it on, on the startup screen I saw this message:

"This build is solely for the use of developement purposes only. Do not distribute without the written permission of HTC. Failure to comply may lead to legal action."

This piqued my interest, so I booted into bootloader mode, and this is what showed up on the screen:

****TAMPERED****

****UNLOCKED****

Jewel PVT Ship S-ON RL

HBOOT-1.19.0000

RADIO-1.12.11.0009

OpenDSP-V29.1.0.45.0622

eMMC boot

Aug 9, 2012, 15:14:25

Also the phone came already root and with a custom recovery installed. But it is strange, because there is no su icon in my app drawer, nor one for busybox. I was just wondering if this phone could have been a developer's phone within HTC or something else? I was just really curious, the phone works fine, and was able to activate it with Sprint. Any insight on this, would be really helpful.

Thank

Tim
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jdawg0024:
From the looks of it you have a phone that has been rooted and unlocked. You still are S-On. It looks like the seller flashed an UN rooted ROM before shipping to you. You are on an older HBoot which may let you obtain S-Off easier than a newer HBoot
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sloth:
Yes I highly suggest getting S-OFF (any questions shoot me a PM :D)

The message is there because it's unlocked and has a custom recovery

I would perhaps try another kernel, as it sounds like that is what is causing the issues.

1 Install carbon zip (safestrap slot 1, bmm any system)

2 Flash gapps

3 Wipe cache/dalvik

4 Reboot

I dont know if it is a goo.im issue but I cant download the file.

I get the following message:
[Motorola Droid Bionic] CarbonROM:
Try our mirror site carbon.mattman.org. However some of the builds are not fully there and will be small like 8mb, so be sure what you are downloading is the correct size (between 120ish and 150ish)

[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
Will this work on the last leak released before the official ota came out?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] CarbonROM:
Not really sure what you mean, but it doesnt matter what ROm you are currently running since you need to fully wipe your phone and flash carbon anyways.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
What I'm saying is. What if we aren't able to install the latest official release of jelly bean on our bionic. What if I'm stuck on a leak and not the ota release. Will this ROM work on that our must I have the latest version officially released by Motorola to use this ROM?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
It's a kexec rom, so it actually comes with its own alternative kernel, and redirects the phone to run on it instead of using the kernel from the stock rom. So I believe you could still be on GB and run this rom.

What I don't know is if you need safestrap and use slot 1, or if you could replace your stock rom using a different bootstrap.

I'm thinking safestrap is the way to go, to be on the safe side.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
Well safe strap was always my personal choice of bionic recovery. And I took the plunge and installed it.... It works!!!! Lol. Nice ROM it was a little slow to respond at first to things but its running smoothly now. Not sure if I like it more than avatar ROM or not yet.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
It runs well for me, but there's not much overhead ram available, so I keep down the amount of ongoing processes. This also unfortunately causes halo to be rather laggy, so I've disabled it. Now I'm trying to figure out how to make more available ram, and what processes to trim.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kristoff123:
How do you access the ##PROGRAM menu in this? It doesn't bring anything up.

I cannot get a data signal without this; I have my Bionic modified to run on Page Plus and need to access the menu to change a setting (not one of the settings listed in the normal network menu). Thanks.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
That dial code and menu may be limited to the stock rom, AOSP probably doesn't have it. What's the setting you need?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kristoff123:
Thanks for fast reply. I love this ROM so far, if I can get data working, it's a go.

Quoted from the guide I followed, these are the final steps to get everything working for Bionic on Page Plus:

On the phone, go to the dialer and dial *#*#4636#*#* and choose phone information. Scroll down and under DNS toggle, switch to allowed. Back out to dialer.

Dial ##PROGRAM and input the SPC.

Chooose #14 LTE Test Settings and change SIM type to 3G.

Change LTE bppanic to disable.

Diable class1 and class2 APN.

Back once to #6, and choose next twice. Change radio type to CDMA and EDVO. Choose back and then hit back arrow.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
There's an app called phone info, that I think allows access to those hidden menus. If not it there may be some app that allows that.

If all else fails, you can change all that stuff by editing the build prop.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kristoff123:
I haven't found an app to access the ##PROGRAM menu yet. So far I can make calls but no data.

Also, I changed one of the network settings in this rom and it affected my other rom. Changed NV to SIM/RUIM in the network settings. When I booted up the other ROM, I had not network signal at all, had to reboot into carbon and change it back. not really a bug, I guess both ROMs access the same phone radio information.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
You know what's so funny about you guys not having data? I do have data and I'm using carbon ROM Lol
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kristoff123:
It has to do with flashing this to Page Plus, and changing a few of the NAM/SIM settings. Should be a simple fix once I edit build.prop. One of the pitfalls of having Page Plus vs. Verizon, I suppose. but then again, I'm paying $28 a month for what I need vs $80 or more for Verizon...

And your comment is not helpful at all. Very rude, in fact. It's not like I know you.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
Firstly how would you know I'm on Verizon. Secondly I'm sorry to hear page plus is giving you problems on this ROM but I wasnt trying to be rude just point out something I noticed. I'd say your the one who found it rude personally.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] kristoff123:
I've been looking for a way to edit these settings in build.prop, but no luck yet. Can you tell me how to change sim type to 3g, set lte bppanic to disable, and disable class 1 and 2 apn via build.prop? Thanks in advance.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
I had data just fine on Verizon, and he's right, you're comment added nothing and sounded pretty dickish.

Unfortunately I don't know the properties to change either. I know they should be there, or be add-able since the phone supports it. My only advice from here is to Google search and hope someone has already had to do the same and posted the lines to edit.

Sorry I can't help more :/

Wireless tether

I tried putting and using wifi tether for the carbon rom the same one i was using on my rom but its not working is there a reason why?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
Have you tried using the baked in tethering option in settings>more just below the wifi and bluetooth toggles?
[Motorola Droid Bionic] stevebinh:
But if you do it that way they charge, I'm still on my unlimited data plan so my data is not included. So i'm using the Wifi Tether app 3.2 beta2 it works on my stock rom but not on carbon =/
[Motorola Droid Bionic] simonbarsinistr:
No, they don't charge. The provisioning checks that exist on the baked in hotspot app on the stock rom which ask verizon for permission to tether don't exist on AOSP roms. You can use the baked in Carbon tether setting, and they won't be able to tell any difference in exactly how you're using your data. The only way you would have an issue would be if you start using an absurd amount of data each month, then you'd draw attention to yourself.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
Well I wasn't trying to sound dickish. If you took offense I'm sorry but that's your own problem I'd say.

Yeah, you like to say that. How about this, if you have nothing constructive to add, don't say anything.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] silvernirvash:
Yeah um I was simply pointing out that I found it odd that I had data when others didn't. I want making fun of you guys simply pointing out an odd observation. If you don't like the comment do what us adults do ..... ignore it..... It ain't that hard to do.

does this rom support overclocking? and if so is there any specific frequency that it is set to would like to see it get to 1.5 like I used to have running on the old gingerbread with custom kernel. Also does it support zram/swap?

It does support overclocking, as for zram one of the Bionic users will have to vouch for that.

I know I sent you a message carbon but any chance there will be 1% battery support? I don't see it in the options so I'm assuming its not in the ROM yet
