Hi Guys.

The Miui ROM I use as a base has gapps already included, looks like the play store in the current version had been signed incorrectly. It's not something I test for as it's never been an issue before. Guess that's something else for my pre-release checklist??

I've corrected the issue and uploaded the latest version again, so if it an issue for you and Moly's workaround doesn't help then just download again, wipe and flash and you'll be good to go..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
I'm not sure I want to spend anymore time on Auto Brightness. The issue is I don't really understand how it works in the stock ROM. The auto brightness arrays are empty but if I try and set MIUI up the same I get an error saying the arrays are empty. So I've had to guess what the values should be. If anyone knows the correct values for stock I'd be happy to implement them but other than that it'll have to stay as it is I'm afraid..Sorry.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
yes, I also tried to put in the arrays from Stock, but as you said - just errors on recompiling for empty values....the way on stock must be a different one, as there are no given values at all
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
I've copied the code from stock but still get the empty array error so the values must be defined somewhere in the stock ROM? I just don't know where!!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] immerblind:
one little question to camera auto focus in videorecording.

can i ask what firmware is the base exactly, somewhere you wrote its a mix of two different, and XTX?

the autofocus in videorecording makes a not so nice rattle sound, while focus the picture. you will-or will not hear it when play the recorded video with higher soundlevel.

i know its an known issue for some XT's

can others please test it? in a german forum another person with XT firmware .145 stock has not that sound, and im just curious if its only my XT or firmware issue?

here is an example video what im talking about

http://youtu.be/QwARVJUadso
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
The firmware is 9.1.B.1.67 TX patched with files from 9.1.A.1.145 to make it work on the T. I don't use the camera much but just tried it and no weird noises when focusing here..

[MENTION=3054511]Rimmer1966[/MENTION] Thank you again your effort this rom version is absolutely good for daily use for me. The auto brightness issue is annoying but I use lux app temporary instead of it.

I would like the hard camera button behavior like in the stock. Interesting thign, It was working in the first sotck based miui rom version. I could wake up the phone and go directly to the camera app with one long press.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
[MENTION=3054511]Rimmer1966[/MENTION]

I set this value up to stock value (was on '2' in ROM!) in arrays.xml:

<integer name="config_screenBrightnessDim">[B]20[/B]</integer>

Seems better now, as minimal brightness is on stock level now..wanna test?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
I had seen that value but for me it didn't seem to make much difference. I'll try it again though as the other values may have changed since I last tried it..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
I guys do you know what this app is exactly? Would like to delete it but can't find it in system apps.. Thanks!!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
Transfer.apk....something chinese for file transfer i guess
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Thanks got rid of it! Sorry I did search too late.. I see it was said before..my mistake !!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
You deleting stuff is probably why your theme manager doesn't work!!:laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
You may be right.. actually i always delete almost same apk's immediately after flashing.. will try shortly a clean install with all stock and let you know :doh: :p

EDIT: you were right indeed themes app was crashing because i deleted stock file manager app :|

I reinstalled it and could import and install your lock screen v1.1 it works great now thanks i love you! :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] davidment:
Transfer.apk is something just like Bluetooth.

I cannot for the life of me get viper4android working on this Rom. Shows up in sound effects in settings but will not be utilized
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] djfm:
Had a normal day yesterday, a few calls, did some fb, weather check, whatsapp etc. with wifi and 3g on..

Still had after 16 hours, 52% battery left..:D

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
Never used this myself but saw this in the viper4android thread. Have you tried this? Good Luck!!

For Poweramp and system-provided music players (such as MIUI music player, Apollo etc.):

After FX v2204, XHiFi v2007:

To use V4A with Poweramp properly, you need to follow the steps below.

In both FX and XHiFi app, switch to Compatible Mode. Then reboot.

NEW Compatible Mode:

Compatible Mode supports large variety of music players and the players' own EQ/sound effects (system-provided/third party)

Therefore, you don't have to select V4A in Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose anything other than V4A. Just run V4A app and the effects will be working with anything else.

1. In option, switch to Compatible Mode. Reboot, done.

2. In Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose other than V4A.

3. Run V4A app and configure the settings then the effects will work together with the one you chose in Sound Settings.

NEW Safe Mode:

If V4A dont work on many players, try switching to Safe Mode to work with almost any music player.

1. In option, switch to Safe Mode. Reboot, done.

Hello Rimmer,

Where can i change the Wi-Fi settings of a Wi-Fi connection.

For example change the password.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] JanalTom:
You can not only change the password, you must delete the stored network and connect it again including the correct password

It's MiShare, it is part of Transfer. In italian language pack included in this version is not yet translated .

It was translated and will be included in next version (I suppose)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
Don't think you need to delete it, just select it then click on Forget Network.. You should then be able to connect with the new password..

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
what modifications did you do after installing the ROM??? Did you restore any old data, install any themes, etc.???

You are the only one with issues like that, so try a clean install and all should work properly
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
I tested quite a long time with different values to get a better more stock-based AutoBrightness working on latest release.

Find attached the results i achieved fitting best from my point of view and for myself of course ;)

Just flash in Recovery without any wipes and report back, if you like it or not
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] djfm:
i did restore old wifi data with titanium backup.

i did installed some original miui themes, and went back.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
never restore any old System data (wifI in this case) again!!!

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
First of all thanks for your help/contribution in this ;)

I'm testing your zip. What i can already say is that brightness automatic change seems smoother, without jumps.. don't really know how to say sorry hope you can understand.

A part from that, i don't know if it fixes the real problem I had with automatic brightness: in last release problem were not levels for me, they were good, but as I told rimmer already my problem in last release was:

"i stay with automatic brightness and bar to the maximum. At the beginning brightness is good, then sometimes (not always and it seems I can't reproduce it) randomly, after a short time screen get darker by itself, even if I'm sure environment light didn't change and light sensor was not affected by me, and stays like that and seems automatic brightness doesn't work anymore. To get it brighter and automatic management working again, i reduce the brightness bar and then set it again to the maximum.

But as I said that's behavior is not always like that so I wouldn't know how to investigate..!"

Don't know if you experienced this problem also, I'm on a clean install btw (just deleted a few apk's from /system/apps :p :D )

I'll keep testing and share my feedbacks about this problem with your fix ;)

i hope it is fixed with your framework because it seems to me that was the last pending problem actually!

In fact i didn't mention that before, but in last release as others said crt glitch is definitely fixed (wonderful, that glitch was really not nice to see), input method switcher can be hidden (wonderful also), Google ears works perfectly now (in some old releases it didn't, so wonderful as well) and also problem in voice calls while using headphones seems fixed!! Can others confirm?

If also that is really fixed latest release is already a mile stone as I guessed and automatic brightness would be (if still present) the only problem!!

So thanks again rimmer for your epic work and eyebee for this contribution in any case ;) :good: :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] catapult1234:
Correct me if i am wrong but isnt it so that if you use automatic brightness the level of the slider represents the minimum level of brightness in dark circumstances. So in your case isnt it unnescesary tot use autobrightness since the level should always be max?

Cheers
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
No it isn't like that. I dont know how to explain, but if you stay with automatic brightness and bar level to the max, and then switch to manual brightness (and keep bar to the maximum) you will see that brightness in manual mode will be higher! You better notice that if you try it in a dark place ;)

For what i understand in automatic mode the bar level is a sort of "sensitivity", but even changing it automatic brightness is still working..

Don't know if i could explain what I mean or if I correctly understood what you said btw! :p

EDIT: btw it seems to me things are better with eyebee's fix, can others confirm? Automatic management problem/sudden dark screen hasn't appeared for me yet since i installed his fix..!!

Will keep testing anyway and report!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
I have just had again the problem also with eyebee's fix.. Suddenly dark screen and automatic brightness failing :(

Dunno what it can be but in previous release i don't remember having them.. just low brightness levels?!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
I think what I might do, is go back to basics.. I've messed around with so many things without truly understanding how it all works. So i think I'll take out all my modifications then try and port the auto brightness settings from my CM10 version of MIUI. I don't remember having any auto brightness issues with that.

Thanks as always for all the input.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
Anyway if you want to wait some more time before doing that, it seems now situation is more stable btw.. but you and eyebee are experiencing the same problem I mentioned in my previous post or it is only me?!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SirFork:
Thanks for the tips. Alas, none of these steps allowed me to use this sound mod. If someone else could verify but I cannot expect anyone to try. I'll focus my attention to v4a's thread and see if I can get some help there. Not a deal breaker, this rom is amazing! Thanks again for all your work!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] davidment:
Rimmer1966 is right, you could try this : open v4a→ settings→ fx Compatible Mode→ Compatible

Then reboot. You have installed driver of course.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] daruma:
First, many thanks for your work and obviously especially for Rimmer. If I set the AutoBrightness It's work fine, but sometimes suddenly the back light becomes too dark, after if I switch of and on again It works well. I temporary use fix backlight. There is the only one issue with this rom for me. I have tried the Lux app for auto-brightness and It works well but blinking sometimes the screen becomes too bright and after immediately became normal. I think there is problem with the light sensor control, maybe there is a connection between the light sensor management and the auto brightness problem. I guess only.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
tbh, for me it is ok the way it is now...tried to reproduce your issue, but til now AB always staid at the highest level and i set it there 14 hours ago
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
ok so I am not the only one, it seems you have mine exact problem. are you using rimmer stock build, or eyebee's fix?

btw, as I said yesterday it seems this problem is happening less frequently now, today and tomorrow I'll keep testing (hopefully intensive testings) and report! ;)

bye!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
i just remember, I changed some other files also some days ago when I started working on that...sorry, forgot that.:silly:

So maybe try with attached zip, so we both have the same base...and as I said, for me it is working without getting darker randomly
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] FcukBloat:
will try it thanks.

what about /system/etc/pre_hw_config.sh file, are you using stock by rimmer?

because I was testing a patched one in the meantime, but if you have it stock I will try it stock also.

bye!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
I looked on that also....the one in the ROM is stock, peetr is using one which is disabling light sensors the way the usually work (with the 'echo 0' commands)...

EDIT: there is one difference in Stock ROM vs. MIUI ROM inside pre_hw_config.sh:

echo 1 > $dev/als_on #Sensor on/off. 1 = on, reg 90h

is as follows in Stock:

echo [B]0[/B] > $dev/als_on #Sensor on/off. 1 = on, reg 90h

I couldn't find it making any difference, but you can change this line also just in case ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
Thanks for the work you're doing, it appears to work but I'm getting a lot of errors about the array sizes in the logcat. I've attached it. It's saying that the config_autoBrightnessLevelsLow and config_autoBrightnessLevelsHigh arrays must be one element bigger than the config_autoBrightnessLevels array..

Another BIG issue: on incoming call, i does not ring/vibrate or annything, when someone hangs up, i have a missed call notification.

It is indeed what TiMiN8R said.

i didnt have the incoming calls problem they worked fine for me ? well the 2 i recieved did anyway. but what i did have was a continuous bootloop after 24 hours use, i rebooted after changing the buildprop to enable headset music using doomkernel v8 kernel loaded fine then gave that grey triangle thing then went to the miui logo then off and repeat it did this for around 10 minutes before i decided it wasnt going to fix itself, i have no idea what caused it or why it happened
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
at least it seems I solved incoming call issue...still testing and also working on other bugs....can't promise anything though

EDIT: still having incoming call issue..it is gone, when you disable vibrate

Sorry it doesnt reboot after flashing 3.9.24, i did a full wipe before:eek:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
I've just tried it and it worked fine.. Did you remember that the kernel isn't included? You need to have a compatible one before it'll boot..If that's not the issue let me know. I could try re-uploading..

I would like to port MIUI from stock rom for another device but anything I tried did in fact fail (device always gets stuck to bootanimation).

Sorry if this is a little off-topic but I would appreciate it a lot.

I'll look into the volume in time for the next release hopefully..

Yeah, i make it work on tx but i seen the same problem as yours, on incoming call appears no sim and even ringer and on music whenbi got 65% on volume does restart automatically, tho should there a new one fix, hope come sooner

I used vKernel and works fine, but when i saw that the recovery was changed i had the brillant idea to go back to the stock kernel sony.. I guess i will flash doomKernel again.

Good work with the ROM anyway.. but i see that the "customize" option is gone.. why? I really wanted those reduced soft keys :(

I notice that the Haptic feedback when you press the keys is too high, and the "reboot on recovery" task is missing.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] cube76:
You need to flash kernel with CWM in FlashTool. Then You can go back to stock again, but after flashing stock kernel You need to flash CWM before reboot.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
due to logcat it looks like changing the levels for AutoBrighness is also defined in services.jar services\com\android\server\PowerManagerService.smali...e.g. in this method:

.method private getAutoBrightnessValue(I[I)I

that's way too high for me :silly:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Rimmer1966:
I know that smali file VERY well. I think it's at the heart of the problem.. The MIUI version of that smali includes a method that stops the back light changing by large amounts either up or down. So if you went from a bright room to a dark room the screen wouldn't go from full brightness to minimum brightness. It would fade down slowly. The stock smali doesn't have that, it's the stock version we're using currently.. I've tried putting that method back in using the array values you gave me but it doesn't work correctly. The screen never gets to full brightness even if placed directly under a light source..On the bright side it does fix the issue of the back-light suddenly going dim!!!

So now I think it's just a matter of playing with the values until we find the correct combination.. I getting a bit sick of looking at this...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] redwhite 1945:

I guess there where too many value-entries insiide previous version for brightness..in addition I changed some other things you can easily see inside the zip....brightest value will still be a little bit less with AutoBrightness then with manual - but just minimal and I don't care at all :)

Still no dice. Going to factory reset and start from scratch see if that gets me anywhere
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] eybee1970:
some things I found out about AutoBrightness:

There are 2 ways to make it work:

a) the MIUI-way (prebuild in current ROM): here you are able to adjust the 'sensitiveness' when AutoBrightness is enabled (just by moving the brightness-slider up and down)

b) the original Sony-way (in testing now): no adjusting of sensitiveness

Both ways have their pros and cons I guess - I like it more the MIUI-way, others might think different.

What both have in common:

Sometimes AutoBrightness just breaks! You will recognize this, when brightness will only show darkest level with enabled AB, but nothing else! This is a well known issue since JB for several Sony-devices with Stock-based ROMs and there are lots of threads around it here on xda describing this. ( Look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2389050 or here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2453223). When this happens, you have to reboot device to make it working again - it might work for hours/days/weeks/months, but sometimes it will just break again and again....nothing to do against that for now!

On the other side, there are a trillion ways to play with the values for AutoBrightness in general within MIUI....Rimmer and me tested them a lot, but there will never be a version everyone will be satisfied with - some will moan darkest level too dark, brightest level too bright and vice versa....

So what do I want to say:

There will never be a perfect working and 'fitting all personal needs' AutoBrightness on this ROM I guess....just the one Rimmer thinks is best! ;)

So if you do not like it: use Apps from Market doing a great job regarding AutoBrightness --> but deinstall them also, if you wanna use prebuild AB, cause they might interfere and stop prebuild from working properly!!!
