Thanks Bro, I tried pretty all ICS ROMs but now I've moved on this One and that's the best. If you like, please take some parts of OctanE ROM framework becacause it's similar to your ROM.

Tonight I'll attach here some cool addons, if you want to add them in the next version.

Hy!

I am using this ROM, and I really like it, thanks for the great work.

I have one problem: when I have an incoming call the phone starts ringing, but the screen is blank, andI haveto wait a few second to get it back. It's quite annoying when I try to answer a call quickly. Do you have any idea how to fix this problem?

Thanks, Ábel
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Saqib Nazm:
Thanks, Sure :good:

Clear data/cache of SemcPhone. Check your kernel & it's minimum freq. 250 is preferred. Check with other governors & i/o scheduler also
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
Awesome

This is an extremely enjoyable rom!:D

Now, I have to be honest and say that so far I have not noticed any real difference between it and other stock roms (like Viper or ZellyCream) when it comes to performance. But, in your defence, my phone is maxed out, fully loaded with apps (70-80MB of system is free after clearing cache [and that's after using Link2SD on a bunch of stuff]) and constantly running whatsapp. Also, I like this better for it's minimalist approach in looks; all black and no "fancy" fabric or brushed steel (or otherwise weirdly colored) background in the UI.

However, it would seem that my phone now fails every 2nd boot, or how I now should explain it... After booting and loading the launcher it will just freeze, die and reboot itself, but then everything is fine. So, in other words, it needs to boot itself twice before working. But then it runs stable and smooth until I reboot it the next time. Very, very weird. I tried reinstalling, but to no use. I followed the instructions and flashed the original stock .ftf with flashtool before installing (even though I thought, coming off of ZellyCream, everything would be fine anyway).

I have an XMP and I'm using Rage Kernel. Don't know what else to tell you. Would be even more awesome if you know what is wrong and how to fix it.

Still, really great work! :highfive:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Saqib Nazm:
I think it is related to ext partition. try breaking it, flash back to stock ftf. I am sure it will get fixed
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
Thanks! I will try that...

Also, just in case it matters, I should probably explain that I also installed SONY media app v6 (ICS) by TK (album and movies), Black Xperia Keyboard, v7_XperiaHomeTopCorners (another default launcher) and SemcCalander_black. Media apps because when trying to change lockscreen bg it prompts to use semcalbum (which wasn't installed) and not QuickView - Black Xperia keyboard because it goes sooo good with the rest of the black look of the rom - new (older) default launcher because it works better, faster/smoother on my XMP - and black calendar for the same reason as the keyboard; it looks great!

Anyway, it is my guess that any one of these things maybe have changed something as well, even if they are kind of standard add-ons for me whenever I use a stock based rom.

Another thing I am curious about is that I can't flash new default themes from CWM, which has been possible for all other stock based roms I've had installed so far... Either way, maybe one of these things matter somehow, but regardless I will try your solution asap.

Thanks again!

saqib: I bow in respect for the fine work you have done on this ROM! I have picked it apart at put together my own flavour of it (for private use), but still, this saved me a lot of space. /system now uses 285Mbyte on my phone. Awesome! I then compiled my own flavour of MESA and cramped up a lot of space for /data. I installed mounts2sd and put all my apps on a partition of their own. /data/data and /data/dalvik-cache stays on the phone. Phone is fast, snappy, and has almost 300 apps installed!

Amazing! Thank you, thank you for this wonderful work. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
It worked, somehow

So, I did it, and it worked -no more random reboots. Awesome! Thank you for talking me into it (since I already reinstalled, I figured something else must've been wrong).

Anyway, now I have a new problem (of course) in that some apps load and then just go white. If they are scrollable in any way you can force a rendering by scrolling [the invisible] picture. I can live with it being like that most of the time, but for some apps that are not scrollable, like my favourite dictionary, it's all white after I get past the initial screen :crying:

Also I must've ticked the "wrong" lockscreen by mistake when installing this time, because now I have the one that allows notification shortcuts, only no notifications are shown in any way, nor do the settings for the lockscreen work past setting a custom wallpaper. And again, the menu for changing lockscreen wallpaper is stuck on only letting you select sony apps album, even though it's not installed. So I needed to install it to be able to change the wallpaper, just like last time.

Anyway, no biggie. I just thought I'd report it, in case you'd know how to fix it.

Thanks again! Also, after this installation, I can't swear to it, but I think I feel a slight difference in performance to other roms; It's very responsive :good: and I must admit that my previous statements were a bit hasty and I apologize :angel:

[edit]

So... Now I know the problem. Although I have no idea how or why it causes these changes... But, all of the problems I have had (except for the semcalbum-select for lockscreen wallpaper) are caused by replacing default launcher [with xperia top cornered LDPI and MDPI versions]. After doing so random reboot after boot starts, but also walkman says music library is empty and closes randomly when playing [if possible]. On a good note, the lockscreen notifications and shortcuts now work, but on a bad note nothing on the lockscreen works in landscape mode. :silly:

So... I'm opting to go back to ZellyCream, which worked probably the best out of all roms I've tried [for XMP, in regards to fuctionality, modding capability, features and HW-keyboard] (thought I'd let you know so you can rest assured I am still on one of your roms):highfive:

Still, I am a bit sad, because this rom was easily one of the nicest I've had the pleasure of navigating (only thing missing for me is magnifying glass), and it's not every day that you have the privilege of experiencing such nice work.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Shafin Uddin:
Thinking of installing this rom. Dose this rom support Doppler V2 kernal. and performance wise is it faster than ZellyCream V6?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Saqib Nazm:
Yes performance wise it should be faster than ZC6, doppler is supported, I think doppler_60 is also compatible
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Shafin Uddin:
Thanx a lot man Great rom hope it gets an update soon :victory:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] karandpr:
Doppler_60 is compatible...Doppler_100 is also compatible but I haven't compiled the 100 version of Doppler 2
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Shafin Uddin:
Currently in this Rom with Doppler2 lethal and loving it but I want to have the stock camera.

How can I get the stock ics camera back instead of cybershot camera?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pertilee:
Can someone tell me why Greenify does not work in this ROM? And why Walkman closes/stops playing the music after some seconds with the screen off?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dato02:
Walkman was unstable for me too when i was on zelly cream, saqib said it's because of better multitasking (super charged script), try some other player like Google play, it's free and works well.

about greenify, you should try it with xposed framework (Google it). you'll need to activate it in xposeds modules tab, reboot, them open greenify go to settings/experimental and mark all the things available to non donators :P that should solve your problem.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zegoo:
Hi, i'm using Fluorescent Feather 3 modified with black keyboard, black calendar, v7_XperiaHomeTopCorners too.

It's just awesome. But I'm looking for the SemcEmail.apk black version. Where could i find it ? Do you have it ?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] pertilee:
Thanks, I installed xposed and greenify works now. But why xposed did not install by normal mode? I had to flash the zip mannualy.

The walkman stop closing after I unnistalled Xbooster.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] novArno:
Hi !

I just wanted to say that this rom is wonderfull :) I had the camera issue but your fix did the trick.

but i have a little display problem with the icons of the status bar :

Inactives icons don't completely dissapear :/

EDIT: Nevermind, flashed a SystemUI Mod and now all is fine :) great job !
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ig33508:
Fabulous ROM, that's all I need

Saqib, first of all I would like to thank you for you great work with this ROM. I installed and used it now for some weeks and it is really what I was looking for. Lite, fast and stable.

Beside this ROM I only use Mounts2SD to have more internal memory available, since it is very small. Bad thing about the Xperia Mini Pro.

Although I am really impressed with this ROM, I have two issues, that I would like to ask your help for.

1. In landscape, if the screen lock activates I get slide lock, but I have a pattern defined as unlock option. The phone freezes and the only way to reboot is to pull out the battery. I saw in the change log that you made already some correction regarding this. I saw that others had the same issue. Did I missed any update link? I used the Version 3 link.

2. The second issue has to do with my battery life, I can´t actually say if it is related with your ROM but in the battery stats I highest entry is SO Android 53% and when I double click it says Usage by Bluetooth. But I have the bluetooth option disable all the time. Any idea what it can be?

Thanks.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
I keep coming back for more...

Featherlight ICS goodness!

This will be the third time I return to Fluorescent Feather, and as you know, that's when you experience all the charm...

Easily the best and most enjoyable stock ICS experience available for our MDPI-devices! :good:

I've had some issues in the past, most likely random or due to unclean install, but now in this moment it is a superior user experience! :victory:

Saqib, I have to say, hat's off to you!

Whatever ROM I choose that you have been a part of, they're always super professional and they never cease to impress. But when looking for stock functionality combined with performance, this has to be the best I've seen. And with less and less new ROMs being made and old ones being upkept and available, I think I am here to stay... :cyclops:

Now, if we never receive another update for this, I can rest assured that my XMP will live out the last of its days in the best possible manner. :highfive:

However, IF we were to be blessed with another future update, I can't help but hope that you might bestow upon us an aroma option for magnifying glass, black xperia keyboard, semc apps like movies & album (semcalbum.apk still needed for changing lockscreen wallpaper) and perhaps an alternative to the tabbed notification UI. :fingers-crossed:

But as I said, even if we don't, I feel very comfortable with things as they are. :cool:

And while I am here, I feel like I want/need to ask if you recommend any particular kernel...?

Also, I [still] get some random reboots every now and then, and I have followed the installation instructions to the letter.

Atm I have a swap & ext3-partition, using Link2SD which has caused me some problems in the past with other ROMs, but never like these reboots which I experienced the first times with this ROM, without swap or 2nd partition.

Any thoughts other than reinstall? :confused:

PS. a bit heavy on the smilies, and for that a apologize, however I am very happy to be back here right now. "It's a celebration b****es!"

You can use Doppler _100 Kernel with this rom, and you will have more than 500Mb free in internal memory at first boot, and even more if you rip off things,

More info here :

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ig33508:
Due to the issues I have with the battery drain I am going to reinstall the ROM and I think I am gonig to give Doppler_100 Kernel a try. At least it sounds good and I hope to find the best combination. :)

Thanks for the tip.

Setup WIzard?

How to disable setup wizard? That causes a FC...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
try deleting SetupWizard.apk from /system/app
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zcedar:
I deleted SEMCSetupWizard.apk and it worked but the problem is the Settings is not showing
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
try this
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zcedar:
Not working. Is there any way to disable Setup Wizard from starting after the installation?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
There are two setup wizard .APKs in the .ROM. One is the SEMCSetupWizard.apk which you seem to have deleted, the other one is SetupWizard.apk which I had suggested you delete. Try removing the second one and see what happens. Otherwise [MENTION=4879131]Saqib Nazm[/MENTION] will have to provide his expertise :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zcedar:
I deleted SetupWizard.apk and the wizard still runs but when i delete SEMCSetupWizard.apk the wizard doesnt run but the Settings.apk is not showing
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
have you removed anything else from the ROM as well?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zcedar:
None, i'm using doppler v3 by the way
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
which variation of doppler v3? the _0 or _100? if _100 have you formatted and wiped correctly? Sorry, I'm running out of ideas here... :angel:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zcedar:
_100, yes, I did clean install... maybe i'll just use lupus for now and wait for saqib if he has a way to disable Setup Wizard:confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
can u clean wipe/format/flash doppler v3_0 and see if the problem exists with that meanwhile ? i searched thru this thread but nobody else has reported setup wizard FCs before you...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] zcedar:
I encountered this error when i flashed doppler v3 but in other kernel the problem doesnt exist
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] rahimali:
until [MENTION=4879131]Saqib Nazm[/MENTION] can respond, maybe [MENTION=3690061]karandpr[/MENTION] can help. He has used Doppler with Fluorescent while I've only used Doppler with Delicious...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] karandpr:
I was using Doppler 3 _100 with fluroscent feather for a lot of time and it never gave me issues. FC's only occurs if you switched the kernel without doing a factory reset. Do factory reset and reflash fluroscent feather.

On a flip note,instead of deleting any app ,you should have just wiped dalvik-cache from recovery. It solves 99% of all FCs !!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] novArno:
And I'm confirming, I flashed FF3 with doppler a lot of times, never had any issue with Doppler _100 and FF3 ! (excepted about the camera, but the fix is provided in OP)

What did you installed with Aroma ? Mine has Xperia V Walkman, No smallapps, No gmail & talk, NXT Fonts, and Sim toolkit ;)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
The aweseome power of the jinx

Just as I thought I was safe... The problems started again...

First, for no apparent reason, with it working fine before and no new installs made, all my download notifications would come back. So as soon as I cleared all notifications, opened an app, used it for a while, exited the app -the notifications would be back... All of them. like 20+ old download notifications (from the stock browser).

So at first I cleared the data of download manager, which seemed to help, but it was temporary. After a week of this I lost my mind a bit and cleared the data of every app and process I could find that had a name which sounded related to download and/or notification... And it worked...! No more reoccuring notifications.

However... Now... I am back to my old issues. If I reboot, or power off then on again, the first boot will always fail somehow and the phone will just blankly, sooner or later, reboot itself a second time -and then it will work (promting NoFrillsCPU-message about unclean shutdown, values not applied).

I have reinstalled, tried other kernels (not doppler yet though, guess maybe I should), factory reset, un-partitioned my SD-card, you name it... Still, reboot every time, making it take anywhere from 4-8 minutes before I can really use the phone.

This is SO annoying. Please help. I like this ROM so much and I really want to keep it.

(Will try doppler asap, but if you think of anything else, please let me know)

Currently on Rage kernel 3.2
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] novArno:
You mean like this ?

Just flash a SystemUI mod like this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2673851

and if you flash Doppler, do not forget to

fastboot erase system
fastboot erase userdata

and obviously wipe chache & Dalvik cache & factory reset
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
Oh wow, fast response, thank you!

But alass, this is not my issue (not that I quite understand this picture, notification area looks fine to me).

And I am sorry if my rants are confusing... I decribed an earlier problem, which now is fixed, but seems to have cause a second problem -that of automatic unclean rebooting after every manual boot/reboot

I am currently reading up on doppler_100

Will probably flash this in a few mins/hrs (unless I read something about issues with 2nd SD partitions)

So... Thanks again, but as I said: notification area isn't an issue anymore for me.

"Only" rebooting

PS.

But out of curiousity -what changes comes with this systemUI mod you linked to? Is it just the navbar, or will I get transparent notification bar and white UI too?

(because then I might as well just slaughter my family and shoot myself in the head [I don't like transparent nb, and I HATE white XZUI]) :D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] novArno:
Well that's bad I kinda like it :D it's only statusbar and notification drawer whitch are modded I think (so all you hate)

And sorry about your "rebooting issue" but I never heard of a bug like this before :/
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dustylambo:
Aha... I see... Well, it's WHITE systemUI I "hate" and transparent statusbar just makes me confused, so I don't "like" that....

However, I LOVE the statusbar buttons/switches/toggles in your picture, especially compared to the tabbed kind that is in Fluorescent Feather

And, as for reboot issue, I have read about kernels that need a second reboot (maybe I just recall what I just read about doppler2, but whatever), but I never experienced anything like this either, with any of the 20+ roms I've tried...

It is so totally weird, especially since everything else in FF is sooo good

Either way, same-same, what can you do...

Thanks again for all your time/effort/help!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] novArno:
And this is the second reason why i changed my SystemUI, here you are some screen of my ROM

:) Good luck with your reboot issue ! :s
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ig33508:
Awesome combination

[MENTION=5669453]novArno[/MENTION]

I installed now everything the beginning...complete clean install. Fluorescent feather and doppler3_100 and I am really impressed. I think this is a perfect combination...Doppler gives me the necessary free internal memory and fluorescent is a really awesome Rom. Thanks for the tip and thanks for the developers of both.

By the way, my problem with the battery drain is solved with the clean installation. The issue with the screen lock scream freezing when pattern defined as unlock option keeps happening. Hope to find as solution for this.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] novArno:
I'm glad I helped :) don't forget to hit tanks button for karanpdr (& Sabiq Nazm of course) :) I can't help with your unlock screen issue though, i didn't have any problem :/ I choosed Xperia Z lockscreen in aroma but I'm not sure it's related :/

Any kernel for stock ICS, that is important to now.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Saqib Nazm:
No man No LOL this ROM is purely built from Stock, may be xNXT is also built from pure base not using any 2012/2013 sources. & probably that is a reason why updated JB apps doesn't work in those framework. I am just trying my best to solve the google app related problem, then I will move in solving other problems. Just I didn't get time today so couldn't work on anything till now
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] gmp009:
I think its sign problem for apps...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] o0o.paw:
I had the same issue with Google Play Services with Real ICS v6 rom. I fixed it by installing the rom & before the first boot installed gapps, nothing else I tried worked. I could then install hangouts & keep.

Not sure it'll work with this rom (I'm still on a much modified Real ICS v6) but you could try.. just backup first.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] shyam4ever:
Is this ROM "Wave lockscreen" and "Xperia Z magnification glass" enabled? if not, then please add those features.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] iONEx:
:D cool!

I think this ROM should stay as is. Barebones and fast. No extra features. After all Saqib released a couple of ROMs with many different features.

This one should be LiTE and nothin' but LiTE ;)
