Thanks. This is the piece of information I am looking for.

It is not exactly the problem of color, it should be the gamma.

The tones on different devices should be different, but if it is ok for most users, let's just forget about it. :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SV_25:
I see this in the changelog: "Enabled MDP composition to improve performance"

After searching the net for what it was, I found that it's only this:

debug.sf.hw=1
debug.composition.type=mdp
ro.sf.compbypass.enable=0

added to build.prop right?

(just asking, always nice to see improvements incomming)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Tomi_Ohl:
And those things which are in changelog under "Testing", are in CM12, or they will be implemented to CM11?

And it's nice to see for me some Xiaomi things, since my primary device is now a Xiaomi (okay, not Mi2, but...)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:
You can check cm-11.0-new-adreno branches for my changes.

Changelog is only for cm11
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JovieBrett:
Hi Mike, can I ask about the 'Updated adreno GPU libs from Xiaomi MI2 (CAF branch: kk_2.7_rb1.41)' list in changelog?

I'm just curious to know, what does it have to do with our devices? does it mean that we'll be using those updated GPU libs from Xiaomi MI2?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Langes:
They're being tested, if all goes well they'll be merged into the main branches self builder can cherry pick them to cm11/12 and test themselves of you feel adventurous

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JimmyRay:
Wow, lovely. I was already very impressed with the performance improvements in the 20141113 build, so will look forward to trying the next version.

Thanks for your great work Mike + devs!

•System without synchronization between video and graphics render

–Video renders to buffer A as YUV format

–CPU coverts YUV to RGBA from buffer A to buffer B

–GPU renders graphics menu to buffer C as RGBA format

–CPU composes buffer B and buffer C to buffer D

–MDP updates buffer D to display

•Get benefit from Snapdragon System with synchronization between video and graphics render

–Video renders to buffer A as YUV format

–GPU renders graphics menu to buffer C and composes buffer A as texture

–MDP updates buffer C to display

So with MDP ,we have graphics glith or not in current test?

For me debug.composition.type=gpu is giving better performance than dyn although both use graphics....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:
You need these two commits to test MDP composition:

https://github.com/LegacyXperia/and...mmit/9b23a02f3e86464f78da7c0c5ff01c390e8b2bf2

https://github.com/LegacyXperia/and...mmit/1ebf0ccd269d0faeb37dddbe39ea615e9755331a

I can't talk about performance yet because I didn't have the time to test them enough.

[MENTION=3839575]mikeioannina[/MENTION] i tested new changes and when I use MDP composition wallpaper is flicking when give MDP off all is OK

About performance is better

Please tell me how to convert 2nd partition to f2fs
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Institor666:
Probably you accidentally press POWER+HOME while trying to wake up
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] doctorace92:
I used the same way I had used to convert it to ext4. I used gparted as I am a Linux user and selected f2fs instead of ext4 in the format menu. Don't ask me about windows. I haven't used it since 4 years ago.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lsander:
Dont know how good are you in komputer skills but on windows:

1. Install linux live usb creator

2. Download gparted.iso for windows

3. Create bootable pendrive with gparted

4. Put sdcard in sd card reader and connect

5. Run gparted on pc start. Read in web how to do it.

6. Change partition to f2fs in gparted.

7. All is done.

Instead of pendrive you can flash gparted on cd and use it that way, I just prefer pendrive.

It is general instructions, for further info search the web as I did to learn how to do it.

Dont know if it is possible to make it directly in windows. Using gparted or linux are only ways I know

Btw worth to create f2fs. It speeded up my phone and I have modified kernel with data on ext. It is best solution ever.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bjo81:
So f2fs won't work with mount2sd out of the box?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BealeStBluesBoy:
If you have an existing second partition, do what i've done, go to the terminal emulator and:

$ su

# mkfs.f2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p2

Has anyone problems with mobile reception? For me the reception is vary from full to nothing in 2 sec and back to full in 2 sec

and often i have no reception. With a different mobile phone there is no problem. there are kown problems with mango devices?

This is not a specific rom problem.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bjo81:
I created the partition newly on my laptop, seem to work better than ext4. It would be interesting to use f2fs also on the primary partition, but I fear the phone wants to format the partition with vfat/fat32 then.

Searching around I found a version of CWM with which someone can convert /data and /cache to f2fs, but "our" CWM does not support it.

The issue was caused by remaining old data on /data.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] karth83:

Sorry for my comments

I really apologize.

Pls forget me. :confused:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Faustop:
What you just did is very rude for two reasons:

1. This is a Q&A thread about CM11, comments asking for Lollipop are completely off-topic. If you want ot discuss Lollipop/CM12 please do it in an appropriate thread (or create one if one doesn't exist), DON'T try to hijack an unrelated thread.

2. You broke the first rule: "no asking for timeframes". The developers around here work on those projects mostly on their free time, because it is fun for them, and you know what takes the fun out of something? Anoying people asking "are we there yet" every 5 seconds.

P.S. Lets not discuss it here any further to avoid poluting the thread even more, if you think I'm wrong, or an ass, and wants to discuss why am I wrong please just send me a private message.

Battery drain

Hey guys, just installed build 20141114, but noticed a huge battery drain when I woke up, is this normal behaviour?, what can be done? Thanks.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] keibak:
Hi,

I'm seeing some strange battery behaviour. When the battery level reaches 50%, it suddenly drops to 1% and the phone switches off?

Any one else seen this issue?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] x_one:
I had problems with battery.

It was dropping from 50% or 70% to 1% when I streesed battery while calling or playing for 3 or 5 minutes..

I've bought new one (original about 8 euro) and now battery life is better than I thought..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] JimmyRay:
That's great battery life for a 2011 device (granted with a new battery) running a modern OS.

Do you have any tips/tweaks to achieve this?

Thanks!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:
I'm pretty sure the battery is dead. I had the same problem on my smultron, buying a new original battery solved it.

A lot of other people also reported this issue with the same solution in the past.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] badboy21102000:

Sir please can you confirm that if the stereo speakers are working in the latest build since they are not working for me..

And also is the 20141113 the latest of your awesome rom ?

And battery is great for me ,thanks fir your continuous efforts and support:good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nikhildangui:
Saw the probable change log

can anyone plz tel me what about the updated boot logo.. or why the CM logo is removed??

just curious as lot of things happening around here in India regarding Cyanogenmod and as cyanogenmod wont provide any future update to any other brand in India , as they have made special agreement with Micromax

even One Plus One wont be updated in India By cyanogen
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] RaXelliX:
Also you can sqeeze some more life out the old battery by going System settings > Performance > Profile > Power save

Granted this does make the phone pretty slow.

Also small rant about prices here in my country. Copy battery for ST15i and similar EP500 users is around 6-7€ but that's only 900mAh. Original is 1200mAh.

Other copies are 15-19€ but still less than 1200mAh.

Real original is 25-30€.

That's a ridiculous price to pay for battery when i can get Motorola Moto E for 4x the money it takes me to buy original replacement battery for ST15i (MotoE is 99€ here wich is suprisingly reasonable).

I think i might get a new phone for my birthday (in february) as i dont see much point paying so much for such an old battery model. Tho i still like the phone and mike & others have done wonders software wise.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nikhildangui:
Ya true THIS IS THE ONE MORE NEGATIVE POINT OF SONY thats why people (even sony fans) dont buy sony anymore....

other negative was high price of phone when the prices should have been lowered

for eg: Xperia L was launched at 17000 Rupees in India which is quite high it should have been priced around 15000 max

next came xperia M which was priced 19000 at launched where as Moto G was available at just 13000

and if you see the camera quality of this 8MP phone its lower , infact worse when compared to REdmi 1s which employs sony sensor but 10 times better picture quality
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] x_one:
You can buy battery in blister or OEM version.. It's the same original battery but OEM is half price...

Small off-topic question: Is there a noticeable performance difference (especially regarding linked app performance) between sd cards with high random R/W speeds and low speeds? I currently own a class10 Samsung SDHC, and in Crystaldiskmark it only reaches 0.6 MB/s R and 0.16 MB/s W (through adapter). Now I'm considering buying one of the newer Samsung Evo SD cards, which get many times higher random R/W speeds in tests (http://www.storagereview.com/samsung_32gb_evo_microsd_memory_card_review_mbmp32d).

i am using the sandisk ultra class 10 card and have linked 4 to 5 apps until now and there is negligible drop in performance of those apps ...so don't worry :D.....and please i m asking for 3rd time cam anyone confirm whether the stereo speakers are working in 20141113 build

and also whether it is the latest build or there are more which i can't find .....because i found someone qouting that he had some issues with 20141114 update????
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lsander:
Dont know what exactly are you asking for but both speakers works on coconut without a problem. Sound is normal, ofcourse lower than stock ics but completely ok.

I use 10 class cheap adata sdcard and also dont have any problem with speed. But I have whole data on f2fs partition.

About battery in india looks really expensive I pay for original battery in my country about 10$. For replacement 1400Mh I payed about 8 dollars here in my country.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Joy Bangla:
HOw did you create f2fs partition??
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] lsander:
Just get one or two pages back. I did put the instruction how to make it on windows.

If you have linux than probably there is no instruction needed.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] RaXelliX:
Yeah but no retailer is selling those versions here. And ordering abroard would add delivery cost wich would offset the price benefit.

Guys...i need some help

Can anyone tell me the exact values to put in deconfig files in source code to reduce data partition by 140mb and put those 140mb into system partition

1st i directly reduced 140mb from data partition and put it into system partition by normal calculations but when i compiled it the rom didn't get installed

It gives some status error

So i need your help
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] L3RAT:

In my Xperia Mini Pro USB OTG works. Don't know in other devices....
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] nussbaum:
Smultron OTG works ok, but not with charging at the same time. Even a powered usb hub in OTG mode does not charge the battery. I tried quite a lot, even soldering different resistors into the cables, but never got it run at the same time. I would very like to take a look at the charging/otg logic in the sources, but sadly i am not a programmer:(

If you want to use the phone as something like a stationary server you could bypass the battery directly, i did that to my tablet with the same otg/charging problem:D

No, I'm afraid noone can answer this. Please go to this thread with questions like this.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BRAiNCHiLD95:
that's OT

Please do not ask such mundane questions... It's irritating to the devs and also completely Off-Topic(OT)...

As for the answer to your question,

AFAIK.....

- The *offical* Lollipop update for the nexus 4 has quite a few issues... So don't be so impatient, people with nexus devices are still waiting...

- Google's developers are still working on ironing out all bugs, and making stable builds for majority of the supported devices (nexus, moto, and other GPE phones, mainly)..

- All the major aftermarket software developers like CM, PA, etc. are still digging into the sources... working hard to make stable builds..

Also,

- If you had bothered looking a few pages back, you would've seen posts about how devs like mike, langes, vishal, Men_in_black007, etc. etc. are all working hard to bring Lollipop to our old 2011 legacy devices....and a tentative changelog has also been posted...

If you can self-compile.. and live with the bugs, you can build and use Lollipop for your Xperia Ray.. :):good:

If not, Keep Calm and Wait For The Devs To Work Their Magic! :fingers-crossed: :highfive:

Unless you know something about this that the others like me don't, I'd say it's gonna be a while before you can use a Lollipop build as a daily driver..:)

P.S. 1: If i came across as offensive/rude.. I sincerely apologize! :)

It's just that anyone could easily report you to a Moderator, for not reading the rules and spamming the thread... I just thought it's important to point it out to you! :silly:

4. Open Google, click next, yes, and turn on Google now in settings of google apk,

5. Open Google now and set as default launcher, if it don't appears as launcher, reboot your phone

6. Enjoy :P

If "OK Google" don't works, go to google launcher's settings>voice search, and set english language as default.

From recent changelog:

Does this mean we can create our own partition layout? I would like that new CM11 release adopts the partitioning layout of CM12 i.e. /data on SD card and whole /system on internal storage

Yes it`s disabled, may be is there some app which can turn off and turn again wi-fi except system?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] keibak:
You could have a look at:

Wifi Scheduler

Autocon
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:
No. If you want the new layout you need to pick the fstab and kernel defconfig changes from cm12. Since changing layout requires wiping everything, I won't switch kitkat's layout. It's already close to official EOL but I will keep updating it. 5.0 is not usable yet on these devices, too many issues.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] amishxda:
I think there easy way out for those who dont want to wipe.

I am not aware of new partition layout, but by reading comments I think this is how partitioning in CM12 is.

/system uses full internal storage

/sdcard is first partition on SD card

/data is second partition on SD card

Now if we have to adopt this in CM11 without wipe, here is what can be done

Boot to recovery with OLD kernel

mount 2nd partition of SD card on say /datanew

cp -a /data /datanew

Flash NEW kernel

Format /system but DONT format /data

Proceed with normal procedure of installation

Basic idea is before flashing new kernel - copy everything from internal /data to /data on SD card. And then rest of the procedure remains same.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Mardon:
1st partition on SD is normal storage like always. 2nd SD partition is data in cm12
