no offenses mate, but in this case everyone would do the job himself as teaching someone. u must know this is a too much amount of wisdom what u need, theres no tut for that, u need to understand the code,, and know (or guess many times) how to fix something. this what developing means. its nearly impossible to teach sth in few calls or pm's or what ever. where high educated ppl nedded YEARS for. it could count her until midnight the hints.

but to give u sth what u can work with:

1. read ''linux'' all in wikipedia

2.visit codeacedemy and do at least all the java , python & other stuff to understand BASIC development.

3. maybe ur now read bit deeper in some materials if want. recommended.. also do rresarch on official android developers from google its ur best friend now!!!! read all whats not clear there bunch of books in libaries, or watch some vid, u have to learn why it work HOW it work.

4.ready. dl the repo, and do a build**. start the phone with debogging on pc to log all prob's & solve em' until u think its 'releaseabel'**

** = if u fail here return to step 3 again.

bless god, finally something with mind :) :good:

if u mean the visals changed much: no. performance: good, in my oppinion better than 10.2's due to better ram managemnt.major bugs:

camera at all, at now no video recording. & very blurry images. wifi is ok. bt not used by me.

webview: to make it easy: its a new IN kitkat introduced base as apps run on.

as example, in ur (desktop-) & the aosp browser thers many use of webview. developers werite code in html/c(++) etc; the webview is very good in runnig this code. but now thers a problem as webview is broken or WIP in our devices, it has first to be developed or optimized to run roperly on our old xperia.

as u know it broken now (& need time to be fixed) and ur browser needs it now u know why its laggy. here several other apps like email app which really need the webview & thats why they are laggin. in my case only browser is a problem in daily use ALL other apps no lag. but i have to use old school opera. :D my fiends thc which is also mogami board has mny problem with webview bcuz its even more broken.

shortly: if u can live without camera & its okay to use opera (& and maybe a other browser but many are lag) its definetly worth it. in all aspekts. and dmn its KITKAT, bro (on such a legacy device) !!! if not wait some time the next built then camera probs should be fixed as much its possible & many other fixes should arrive from cm repo & mike

btw: [MENTION=3839575]mikeioannina[/MENTION] & to all happy holidays & nice chritmas hope u can rest some time. as what u done . thanks (...)

Do Neo V (MT11i) users have to flash the ftf? If yes, can someone give me instructions or something? Doesn't flashing the stock firmware remove root and recovery? I'm on the very first 20131127 build. Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] bejunk:
bettet do it if u want be sure not to encounter some bugs.

for instructions how-to install ics.ftf go to aneels z1 honami rom thread, on install institutions there's a link to Sony forum. u can dl there the ftf too :good:

yez it removes booth. but no worry, cwm is a kernel thing just flash th kernel & enter recovery.

same goes for root. mosty the rom is preeroted so just install like allways, done. no worry.

but remember to wipe all partitions afer u flash the LX kernel here!!!

so, at best:

1. flash full ics.ftf, exclude nothin in flashtool., boot once may.

2. install this roms kernel

3. wipe all partitions incl. /system.

4. flash rom &gapps.

5. boot & fly ^_^

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:

Encryption

I see that full encryption is currently unsupported. Is it because we're using YAFFS instead of EXT4? If that is the case, would it be possible for the end user (me) set the fs to ext4 instead, or work out another similar workaround to enable it?

Otherwise, as I consider this feature important, what steps would be necessary to implement it on the current roms?

EDIT: How useful is this github. com/CyanogenMod/cm-kernel/pull/6 and this github. com/scintill/yaffsunlock ?

(ugh, xda-dev is preventing me from posting github links)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Faustop:
The flash storage in our phones is of a different kind to the ones found in computers and more modern phones. The storage on the old xperias does not support traditional filesystems like ext4 and can only work with filesystems made specific for it (like YAFFS). So no, there is no way to set the fs to ext4.

And regarding encryption, even if possible, I doubt it would be a workable think on such old phones. Encryption requires a lot of the CPU if the phone doesn't have support for hardware encryption. Even much more potent phones are being repported to become slugish when it is enabled.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] karandpr:
Encryption is possible with whisperyaffs. Alternatively use second sd card and symlink data to second sd card'

You will have to use custom scripts for the mount sequence

Wifi greyed out [cm11-smultron-20141114]

hey guys,

i was using the build 20140719 and had no issues.. i spotted an update and flashed it .

everything except the wifi worked, :( ......... whenever i on it, it becomes grey(disabled)....

i've tried formatting and installing the rom several times... but no difference...

i have a doubt.....do i have to install the kernel inside the update.zip also?

Thanks
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] _cheh_:
yes you have to flash the kernel (which is inside the zip) first. As Mike said these steps are necessary for a clean install:

Steps required for correct installation (order is important):

1: Flash boot.img in fastboot & reboot into recovery

1.1 (optional): If the device is not booting, reboot to bootloader again and run:

fastboot erase system

fastboot erase userdata

2: Enter recovery, go to mounts and storage

3: Format /system, then /data and then /cache (Important step!)

4: Flash update zip

5: Flash gapps (recommended package is the one provided in the link below)

And the first step is to flash (-> install) the kernel.

This step is necessary if you do a dirty update too!

"Phantom Key Presses filter

This feature is an attempt to workaround a well known hardware bug of some Samsung devices.

Pratically, the high activity of the radio hardware, in particular the antenna, could cause interference on Melfas chip, which is located very close to the antenna.

This interference could induce bad interrupts that are seen by the chip as possible HOME, MENU or BACK key presses.

These phantom key presses are happening expecially in 2G mode."

Could this work for our devices?

Almighty Mike is watching us and will answer your prayers ;)

Okay, I already see your problem from your forum posts. For Xperia Play you should use flashtool to flash this via Flashmode (It is whole firmware with orginal kernel and system):

http://www.mediafire.com/download/p5hwn7ocjwu1781/R800i_4.0.2.A.0.62_(1253-4437).rar

If you will not be able to download try other one from that list:

It will erase all your data and restore to original Gingerbread, but should make your phone bootable.

Hi all,

kindly post the ADB shell commands for :

2: wipe dalvik

3: set maximum backgroung processes (if availeble)

I've googled for them, however the once i found didn't work for XMP

and the reason to use them, because i'm blind and the recovery doesn't have a voice feedback like the system with "talkback"

and i can do them adb command easely on my windows pc.

Big Thanks in advance.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] Dany XP:
Actually, more than Bravia, i'm more interested in xLoud...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] _cheh_:
Hi,

i have to say, i didn't tried it, but this is what i found with google in other questions/blogs:

To wipe you system, data and cache you could use the fastboot tool.

This blog said the command you need to erase the system, data and cache is

fastboot erase system -w

if i understand it correct, this is what you need to install a new rom.. so you don't have to wipe cache and dalvik separately

i don't know the solution how to set maximum background processes.

i didn't tried it but i hope it will work for you.

(if you don't have fastboot you could use the version you can get in this xda-thread.)

I wish you good luck. Hope i could help you. even if i didn't tried it myself..

edit: to use fastboot-commands you have to connect your phone in fastboot-mode. for xperia mini pro you would do this if you disconnect the phone from the computer, power off your phone, press down the "volumen down"-key and then connect your phone with the pc (you have to press the volume key down WHILE you insert the usb-cable) after this you can use fastboot commands..

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] skaveelicious:

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] johnny.tifosi:
I second that. I believe one last build should be uploaded once official CM11 development stops, since there is no sign that the remaining device-specific bugs (like FM or wifi drops for some users) could be fixed by Mike. In the CM blog they had written that CM11 M13 is still on the roadmap.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] mikeioannina:

OverlayFS

Hi Mike and all!

First of all, thanks for the hard work!

Second: I have a Neo (hallon), and it still works surprisingly well, but there is one issue: there is really not much space on it. I'm already using link2sd which helps a lot, but it can't move the data only the apk and libs (at least in the free version), so I always have space issues and my gapps updates are constantly failing until I integrate them to the system one by one...

So I started thinking: can't we just mount the /data to the sdcard's 2nd partition? Or if it's too error prone, can't we use overlayfs for the same thing? If I understand correctly, with overlayfs we can use the sdcard, but if it's not present we still can boot up the device since the basic things are available from the internal flash.

What do you think?

Cheers,

tr3w

When you say flash the kernel from the zip... do you mean I can select the ROM in recovery to flash the kernel? I thought SE devices had to use flashtool.

I wasn't able to find a separate kernel in the December update zip. I'll give a clean install a try this weekend.

Also, what are the md5sum files which are available to download alongside the zipped ROMs?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] azakosath:
He means that for every LegacyXperia's update you must flash the provided kernel first (via fastboot), which is inside the zip file (boot.img), boot in recovery and then install the update zip. You can explore the update zip and extract the boot.img with whatever zip program you like. The md5sum is a unique number for every file and you can check this number for the file you downloaded (there are free programs for that, Google'em), to verify that is not corrupted and it should match the number inside the file you mentioned (alongside the update zip).
