I have a hallon phone and every time I install a new build on top of the old one the home, menu and back buttons stop working... any idea how to fix that? Only way to get them work again has been fresh install but it takes so long time to restore all the apps and call logs, messages etc. (I use TB). And I always have to set up my phone from the beginning because if as soon as I restore phone settings with TB, the home, menu and back button stop working.

face down mute

Hello,

I used the excellent CM9 by Mikeioannina until last week, and I'm using this CM11 now, on mango.

A feature disappear betwen CM9 and CM11 : the automatic mute when face down during incoming call.

Is it possible to restor this without third-party application (like RD Mute) ?

Many thanks to Mikeioannina and thanks to all.

I put a sandisk mobile ultra 200x to hallon, it is faster for 4k-512k rw, blablabla.

I moved most apk and lib to ext2 on SD, but I keep all data in internal memory.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] johnny.tifosi:
I have to say that the latest build that fixes the serious mp3 bug and other stuff is pretty much flawless, and I believe CM11 should finally be considered stable. I mean except for the wifi wakelocks (rx_wake is still on about 15% of the time) and the lack of FM Radio, I can't think of any other issue that bothers me compared to Gingerbread, which I have stopped using for over half a year. Congratulations to LegacyXperia that continues to update 4 year old devices with the latest versions of Android, keeping our phones relevant with stable and feature rich ROMs that are actually an improvement on the stock versions. :good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] tinyXperia:
Is there a noticeable performance difference to cards with low R/W (my Samsung class 10 only gets like 12 KB/s random r/w)?

If you disable 'keep wifi during sleep', the effects of wifi wakelock are not a big deal. I lose about 30% battery with the phone idle all day (7h - 20h) and connected to wifi.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] cagali:
If you put /data/data on sd card, using link2sd or sth else, it should be more noticeable.

Also these days large games have 1000+ or even 5000+ small files at /sdcard/android/data, if you spend a lot of time on games (which I doubt anyone would do so on 2011 xperia phones), you should see a difference.

As most people (?) claim that they do not notice the performance difference in overclocked cpu between 1.6ghz/1.4ghz, or even 1.4ghz/1.0ghz, I think it should be fine to keep using a class 10 card. The impact of sd card speed should be smaller than that of cpu speed.

However if you are buying a new one, it is better to compare some benchmarks on new microsd card first.

Encoding ... what bug you are reefering to?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] johnny.tifosi:
Well, compared to not being able to play some mp3 files at all, resulting in silent incoming calls and alarms, that's not even an issue. I found that by using VLC which uses its own codecs the problem is gone. But even with Apollo it isn't that bad.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SpyrusTheGreat:

4pole audio jack

Sorry in advance if this is kinda of topic, but it is kinda rom-related.

I was wondering if it is possible through a rom or kernel mod, to make newer Sony headsets work properly with our phones. Sony branded headsets have different mic and ground wiring that old Sony Ericsson ones, and thus the newer ones dont work properly.

Is this in anyway possible? Or is it purely hardware related?

EDIT: I just found out that there is protocol naming for the jack connections! OMTP was used in older headsets, and thus in Sony Ericsson phones, replaced by CTIA on newer Sony ones. My question remains, just thought i should add the naming in case it is helpful.

EDIT 2: I found out that my Lenovo tablet works with both headsets just fine! Since hardware switching seems a bit impossible, maybe a software thing is actually possible?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:
Not possible via software, you can find an adapter on ebay pretty cheap or 'build' one yourself.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] AndStuff:
Yeah, i know, i was hoping to avoid the extra bulk.

2015-03-26 rom not compatible with latest gapps

Hi,

I have flashed the new rom today and I used the minimal gapps as recommended on the first post, the latest one is 2015-03-29 and it lacks the stock AOSP keyboard and that causes problems of keyboard force close errors. also when I try to solve it by installing google keyboards that also force closes.

Any suggestions?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] skaveelicious:
AOSP Keyboard has stopped working

The latest update to the GApps package is removing a file that is needed for AOSP keyboard to run. I've already reported this to the developer. As a workaround you have to do is:

Open the ROM .zip (cm-11-date-UNOFFICIAL-LegacyXperia-devicename) with WinZip/WinRar or similar.

Go to "system/lib/" extract and copy "libjni_latinime.so" to your phone sd card.

Navigate to the location you copied "libjni_latinime.so" with a File Explorer (ES File Explorer is good for this) and move it to "system/lib" on your phone. (You will need to mount /system as RW).

Set the permission under properties to "644" = checkmark: owner -> Read + Write; group -> read; other -> read

Reboot your device

I loved this "xxx performance boost" "xxx tweak" "xxx engine" stuff on xda.

But I found that at least 90%, of these are just myths, placebo.

For this case, most modern apps and games handle the heap limits themselves.

You should try to use this 2.

1 very low setting and 1 very high setting.

And then really use a stopwatch to check the time of reboot, app loading, for several times.

The result will surprise you.

Experia Arc, heart rate monitors and ANT+

Hi guys,

apologies if this is incorrect place? I have tried to find an answer but can't!

I have an Arc (was an LT15I) I put on the CM10 and nightly mod which I really like!

I recently bought a heart rate monitor (aldi in the uk) which works via Bluetooth to apps like Runtastic which I have on the arc! The kit needs both the latest android 4.4 (kitkat) and a newer version of Bluetooth (which I now think means ANT+ after looking at the wiki) to transmit the data! I see that ANT+ doesn't work on CM11 - 4.4 and there isn't any plans to make it so because of various issues with stacks!

My question is, before I start messing with the phone to add cm11 and 4.4 etc, does anyone know of a mod

or anything I can use to make ANT+ and kitkat work for the arc? Otherwise the heart rate monitor isn't going to work on this phone

Thank you for taking the time to read

https://github.com/LegacyXperia/local_manifests/issues/783

Hi, I am new here since I was using official CM10 until recently. Upon upgrading to CM10.2 and then CM11 in succession, I kept having an issue with excessive battery drain. After finally using Better Battery Stats[1], I narrowed it down to a msm_serial_hs_dma kernel wakelock. The fix seems to be the latest commit in the repo[2] (at the time of writing), which closes bug #783[3].

This battery drain problem seems important enough to warrant a release on its own, don’t you think? My question is, how does the usual release cycle go, and how soon can we expect a new CM11 nightly? (The CM12 build is already up.)

Most importantly, I just wanted to say thanks for keeping my little piece of hardware (urushi) usable with current software – you are awesome, Mike.

Is "Disabling fading text edges" something we can apply to device without installing this rom (like init.d or build.prop code or change of files in related system folder)?

Fix for missing gesture typing

Latest recomended GApps miss the needed library to allow gesture typing. Some users also were affected by the latest GApps removing that library if it was already present. In this case the Android Keyboard force-closes repeatedly.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] skaveelicious:
Per changelog, see here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=53319258&postcount=1 it has been officially removed. Mainly because it is not *really needed* If you use Google Keyboard, SwiftKeys etc. CyanogenMod ships with it's own version of the lib and AOSP Keyboard does not support gesture typing by default from what I have seen. Most people did not know this however because GApps gave them the gesture support for AOSP Keyboard as a *nice extra*.

If the GApps mantainer does not decide to include the lib again, flashing the .zip file I attached will be the only way to get gesture on AOSP it seems. Another solution is to just uninstall AOSP keyboard and go with the Google Keyboard from playstore instead.

As many of you probably knows already, possibility of call recording has been introduced to CM11 some time ago. All you need is to enable it with this Xposed module.

Has anyone noticed the phone pad disappearing? I've had it happen now in the dialer and in call.

In the dialer they are just missing, switching away and back corrects it. With the in call phone pad it looked as if the window slipped half way down the screen, covering the icons to switch off the pad and hang up the phone call.

I don't use the phone pad much, so I can't say when it started happening. I'm on the latest CM11 urushi
