If you're using my mod, the bravia engine options does nothing.. :p Well, a lot of people seem to prefer bravia engine over X-Reality... But you only know the power of X-Reality when you have a full HD screen... It's more balanced and decrease edge blurring. In bravia engine 2, take a photo of any red object, like a shirt, and you'd find the end image to be too saturated, it looks odd...
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Firstly, the white balance won't mess this up, coz I'm using that too.. :p... And I'm on the same firmware as you, only c1904... Looks like you're doing something wrong, why don't you tell me what you did in your own words.. Step by step.. I can probably guide you better?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Sorry, cm based ROM's are not yet supported...

[Sony Cross-Device General] AndyPhoenix9879:
Firstly I downloaded the 2 files to my phone, then I followed the steps of build.prop edit and extracting and placing them in the right folder with the right permissions (I extracted the BE2 Xreality.zip. Then I rebooted the phone and opened album (Idk why) and closed it and turned off BE2 and Xreality, and extract the other file. Since I'm odexed, I deleted the credentialmanager.apk and also the odex. Then I rebooted the phone and turn both Xreality and BE2 on and opened album - nothing changes, everything still looked the same :C

Sorry for late reply! D: and sorry to ask another question, its a bit off-topic but, do you, by any chance, know where are all the display colour reproduction or contrast settings stuff in the system? I compared my old Xperia J to my Xperia M and the XJ looks vibrant! D: Pretty sure if u flash the XJ firmware to the XM, the display on the XM would be similar to the XJ. And sorry again!

Excellent work on 4.2.2 ( Xperia L) :good:

Thanks Bro :highfive
[Sony Cross-Device General] skrilex:
can it works on xperia zl?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Yeah, everything's correct as far as i can see.. You missed out in the last step.. After deleting the credential manager service apk and odex, you rebooted.. Everything is good till here.. Now, copy the credential manager service apk from the restore bravia engine zip and place it in the appropriate location.. And for the final time, reboot, and then tell me if it doesn't work. The credential manager service is necessary for it to work.. Try this and let me know...
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
If the Xperia zl is on KitKat, I'd ask you to wait. The procedure is slightly different, I'm waiting for my friends ZR.. I'll test and confirm.. If the zl is on 4.3, it will work!
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
[MENTION=5689354]AndyPhoenix9879[/MENTION] As for the display settings, I'm not sure. I do know the brightness can be altered with kernel. Not sure about the contrast and color composition. And I'd seriously advice you against flashing the Xperia J firmware over your phone, as it would brick your phone..
[Sony Cross-Device General] m_k1815:

[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Works only on stock rom as it needs the sony framework and libs for it to function. Wont work on CM
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Works on an Xperia M (C1904) 4.3 stock seeing as i developed it on the same phone. :p

Doesnt work on Lollipop as it needs the Sony Framework and default libs for it to work.
[Sony Cross-Device General] andy14tuyul:
so there is no idea to make it work at my phone.... so sad..haahaaa
[Sony Cross-Device General] ByronFer:
Ooh I see :( :( so if I flash any Sony Framework based ROM (if theres any) do u think it might work???

or maybe do u have a version or do you plan to make one for CM?? thanks!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
I switched to a Nexus 5 bro now.. So probably i might continue development. For any stock based ROM, it basically should work.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Dreak_Sekh:

Set permission RW-R-R is OKE

Thành quả!
[Sony Cross-Device General] Lucaviola:
This MOD is worked for me, i can confirm.

other than screenshot method, you could check if the BE is really worked if you carefully take a look at the pic from the albums, when you tap it, actually we could see that there is a little transition in the colour of the pictures, it's deeper that before.

You need to see it carefully right after each time you tap a picture in the album.

It's not just a placebo, i can confirm.
[Sony Cross-Device General] oel_majh:
sorry... can you edit the script or datas to make this x-reality engine shows up in display setting ass x-reality engine and not ass bravia engine 2?

[Sony Cross-Device General] Antrikos48:
In your phone, there's a file called build.prop. It's located in /system/build.prop. Add those lines there.

[Sony Cross-Device General] giridhargp:
Thanks bro,,,,,, :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
As for the permissions you asked,

The permissions for all the files have to be set as

rw- r-- r--

The permissions of the build.prop file should NOT be changed...

The permissions can be set using any root file manager, like ES File Manager, I have also put screenshots of the same in my posts..

If those permissions do not work, then, use this, --- rwx r-x

Please check the previous posts before asking..

Cheers.. :D

I have tried out on the updated firmware today, and i have experienced no such problems.

Did you follow all my instructions correctly?

Did you happen to change permissions for the Build.prop also?

Did you flash the package via CWM?

I have my bootloader unlocked, so i cant get Bravia Engine to work, but i have tried it out on my friends Xperia M C1904, and its working fine on the Latest Firmware,

Please check where you might have gone wrong.

The only file that is going to replace our system files is the "com.sonyericsson.colorextraction_impl.jar" in /system/framework...

You can try removing it and reinstalling.

If you followed the guide perfectly, i say this once again, you should not have any problems.

If your bootloader is unlocked, then, you will not be able to experience the advantage of a few Sony's features like Bravia Engine, Etc...
[Sony Cross-Device General] Antrikos48:
This is how I repaired my phone from a bootloop:

1. Disconnect your phone

2. Attempt to update

3. It will tell you no device found. Click repair

4. Select your phone and wait until it finishes downloading

5. When it asks you to connect your phone do so, while holding volume down

[Sony Cross-Device General] vamsi37:
i dont want to stuck at sony again plz. anyone help

I have bricked my device once i dont want to do it again.

THIS WAY I BRICKED

first of all i dont know its completely rooted or not.I use root explorer to paste files, at first while i try to paste the mobile reboots, so i thought it wasnt completeley rooted and i factory resetted it and again i rooted it.Last time when i try to paste them using root explorer they were pasted sucessfully but while i am about to change permissions or anything like editing build prop it rebooted automatically and this time boot loop struck at sony logo.I dont want to have it again because it took 3 days for me to repair it via sus as i dont have a net connection in my home and for it i have to go to a cafe where it took days to download the firmware.

Please someone help me i want this xreality or bravia engine because the video viewing in this xperia looks very bad than lumia 520 which is 4k cheaper

If anyone dont understand plz ask where u didnt understand i am happy to reply
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Can you tell me the procedure you used to root the phone.. Which phone Btw, single sim or dual?
[Sony Cross-Device General] vamsi37:
I have an another problem

Now I have cross flashed my phone due to another boot loop now I got this loop due to permissions I gave and they are rw_r__r__ could you please tell me correct permissions I have to give I am totally confused on reading whole thread and also tell me about any special permission to build prop mine is c1904 with 4.2.2 which is about to get rooted by framaroot
[Sony Cross-Device General] Lucaviola:
1 question for you, do you root it properly? I mean we have 'half root' which on that phase, our phone won't let this mod installed properly, and 'full root' which i've done it and this mod works excellent on this phase..

You bricked it cause u did not completely root your phone, most probably..

Btw, just DL FTF of our latest fw dude so in case u bootloop-ed your phone, no need to repair it with SUS and those cafe connection, just re-flash it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] vamsi37:
now my phone is all right could you please help me with permissions that's were I am getting messed up
[Sony Cross-Device General] Antrikos48:
I used ---rwxr-x (075) and it worked. Don't change build.prop permissions.

This message was brought to you from my Sony Xperia M C1905 using Tapatalk.
[Sony Cross-Device General] vamsi37:
Are you sure it works because it should be rw_r__r__ in general or you would have copied them using es file Explorer which automatically changes the permissions as I heard
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Yeah, copying them using ES file manager automatically changes permission, and the files will work, I have tested them on all three FW's on C1904, Not sure about XM Dual, but it should work.. Please read the instructions before posting, Many people have got this mod working... As for your bootloop, as mentioned above, download the FTF file and reflash.. If your Bootloader is Unlocked this mod WON'T work for you... If there are any more questions, please quote me in your posts, else i wont be notified...

Cheers :D
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Framaroot is only half of the rooting process, Your phone need to be fully rooted for this mod to work, else if its half rooted, you will not be able to copy/edit files on your root partition, the "Reboot on file copy" is a classic case of your phone being half rooted.. For complete root please refer to the Rooting Guide in the Forum...
[Sony Cross-Device General] vamsi37:
I'm using root explorer my root is working now I'm not getting any reboot problem I have tried with both rwrr and also the default ___rwxr_x I again struck at bootloop could you suggest me some other I didn't change build prop permission and also I downloaded the files again from where you said bootloop fixed in this thread. now I'm using 15.2.A.1.12 dual firmware on c1904 boot loader locked
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
Okay, did you copy all the files into the respective folders? /System/"Folders"

Leave setting permission for files for now, Just copy the files using ES file manager, (Let default permissions stick)

Next, did you update the contents of Build.Prop? Add the lines in the text file at the bottom of the build.prop... (Dont change permission for this)

Next step reboot, and it should work fine!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] vamsi37:
I have done that using root explorer I can't use es file Explorer is displaying access denied. I have added text to build prop from #xreality I didn't change permission of build prop any time. as I said I tried without changing permissions and also with changing to rwrr both the ways it ended to bootloop so what's missing
[Sony Cross-Device General] ckrishnakanthc:
You're going wrong somewhere buddy, coz many people here even those who voted, have gotten the mod working on xm dual...
