Great job,i think the first real smooth ics rom!

Only a small problem,the incoming sms,black fonts to blue background dont look good.:(

so i made the wrong choice in aroma installer?i am odexed,so need to reinstall to tic the white fonts?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] per4rator:
MK16i. Mediaserver is OK for me after flashing that fix.

Deodexed, no Walkman installed.

HDMI output works fine too.

Overall VERY good ROM. Thanks.

Only 2 issue for me

- awful fonts color in messaging app;

- "Clear Phase" won't stay active.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Saqib Nazm:
thanks, about coversation you can just change it from rom's zip. Aroma/convo/white/app/Conversations.apk

delete Conversations.odex after replacing and reboot device (with rwrr permission)

I think that's the theme accent color, if you change to another accent color that conversations bug will be gone, actually this conversation is white by default but I made a black version because many users wanted. clear phase won't work in this walkman package

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------​

As there are two fixes that needs to be implemented but when you are on odex, fix won't get implemented. So the only way is to make a Rom zip again with the fix implemented. As the other bug is vital, One user found it out and let me know about Pattern Lock bug, phone goes into bootloop forever. So don't attempt it.

I will make a new version shortly, cause I won't be updating this Rom for a long time after that, that's why want to be it stable from every sense. If anyone has any requests please write here within 24 hrs. I will see if I can consider.

Iridescent_Zed_III Is Cool But need some improvements

[MENTION=4879131]saqib nazm[/MENTION] Flashed yesterday Iridescent_Zed_III Rom its good & smooth but there is some Graphical glitches...Take a look below also one suggestion below like Plz add Condensed font too ... If you work on these would be Great :)

Graphical glitch: When we connect phone to PC through USB then Lockscreen Charging Icon & USB Debugging icon messing up with each other...check below

& Suggestion is if you add total Transparent status bar like below it would be Gr8 :p

Thanks

Υes this is not good for easy read.

I try to put in aroma/convo/white an other conversations.apk (from v2)

I reinstall the room but no conversation witget at all......:(
[Xperia Arc Android Development] per4rator:
I made it already without reinstalling whole ROM. I replace conversations.apk with one frome aroma/convo/white folder of Iridescent_Zed_III.zip, set the rights (-644), remove corresponded .odex

After reboot things went just fine.

Nothing disappeared, SMS text became readable.

I doit in the hard way.

install rom with no odex.

After install with root exploler the Conversations.apk (uploaded) in aplications and fix permission.

put to sd card this aplication for odex: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2157251

1) do a nandroid backup(just added safety)

2)Start ODEX ME app

3) follow the onscreen instructions.

4)your device will boot several times or even boot for a long time(Its all normal).

5)to see if you rom is odexed go to /system/app partition and you will see a whole lot of .odex files.

Before odex ram 160mb after 194mb!

Before internal memory 270mb after 342mb!
[Xperia Arc Android Development] per4rator:
Good.

And what about /system partition space after odexing?
[Xperia Arc Android Development] mariobl:
I do odexing my rom but I don't see too much deference. In system I have double files one odexed one normal. Did I do it right? I didn't do odexing after clean install?

Good ROM, but on v3 found bugs:

1. Radio dont have any background wallpaper. Theme Accent background missing.

2. Systemui clock freeze. (Then i restart phone or change phone language, works good)

3. Phonebook problem. (I changed icons, but i tested default integrated apk from v3, but still bugged.

Maybe in future:

1. Make in AROMA volume steps (15) and (30)?

2. Make White/Black Phone book, or Theme Accent?

3. Make some new colors in Theme Accent?

<<Xperia Neo>>

Wow! I'm impressed!!

Looks FANTASTIC, runs SMOOTH. Makes my old Neo feel like my (Stolen) Xperia ZR!!

The wallpapers and art are BEAUTIFUL especially the purple ones! Everything i need is here!

My only critique is, i would have prefered more options for Notification bar Toggles like some of the other Modern ROMS have.

For example:

1. Brightness toggle with multiple levels (0%, 25%, 50%, etc.)

2. Flashlight toggle

3. Long-press Bluetooth toggle to enter Bluetooth settings (easier to pair with other devices).

4. Same for Wifi toggle, long press to enter settings (view available networks).

5. Screen shutdown timer toggle (30 secs, 1 minute, 2 minute...)

6. ...and others...

I realize that i've been spoilt by the Neo *Iced Bean 4* Rom that i tested recently. I didn't like the Rom itself but it had a gigantic amount of notification toggle functionality!

[Xperia Arc Android Development] amankumar2508007:

I have problem with the boot up time,, it's so so long ~ 1.30 min..

Do you also have this much boot up time?

---------- Post added at 09:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 PM ----------

I am having trouble with browser...

It works good for 5 mins but after that automatically shuts down..
[Xperia Arc Android Development] nedunilavan:
1. Boot time will increase often if many apps installed or ROM is quite heavy.

2. If you greenify your browser then it will most probably auto hibernate your browser after awhile OR it's bcs of aggressive RAM management of services.jar which has higher minfree value. If so, try changing minfree value to much lower.

Use this app to scan your SD https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.addz.mediascannerroot

do reboot after scanning and mp3 files shoud be read b y walkman.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Saqib Nazm:
GPS works fine here too, what is your baseband? did you come from a stock based ics? may be there is some other problem

Boot time is fast in the recent releasel, that oom grouping for phonebook made boot time slower. Also apps are getting killed for minfree killer as in Ram gets low to a certain stage that android system kills any process. Reboot device once daily to minimize that and If you have many apps installed then use greenify to hibernate other apps.

Kill app back button doesn't work with this Rom due to settings left in cached process. If you want kill app back button then replace services.jar from stock rom (system/framework) but you wont get ram management similar

Go to tools, folder option and show all files and folder of your pc, then navigate to your music folder of sd card, search if there is .NOMEDIA file there, if you cannot find just change the folder, as in delete all songs from that folder make a new one and copy songs from pc. This isn't related to Rom but something might have left a mark on your sd card

Go to google play store or install any terminal emulator.

in the terminal emulator, type su and hit enter

then type lupus.

it will show other options. just find the otg function and enable it.

then go to google store again, install usb-otg helper. that will solve your problem.
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Aciong.Aksaya:
Change your font style. that should work.

[Xperia Arc Android Development] daer2dai:
Aww, then should be the same on Neo. Thanks for reply. Time to test Ultimate HD Rom.

You have to restart the Rom once AFTER installing the games. That will Odex the games and many of them will run much much smoother after that. The heavier graphics games won't run anyway because it is still a 2011 device afterall. There is only so much our old Adreno 205 can do!

Agree, beautiful rom!

But...

1. lack of torch...

2. only 2 steps of brightness...

3. how to remove texts from quick toggles in notifications area? IMHO this area should be scrollable and texts here are bad idea for sure.

I will try to use this rom for some time.

But probably I return to your previous Z1 rom - torch and more brightness steps are essential for me :).

There is a pre-installed Torch app, look again. ;)
[Xperia Arc Android Development] Saqib Nazm:
Nice congrats :good:

Your 1,2 problems are related with systemUI, change to any systemUI which has those options, as you can see I tried to keep this rom as close to stock 4.2.2 & neither 4.2.2 Z nor Z1 has torch toggle in systemUI

Texts are obviously removable for sure. you probably didn't get it right

Well you can't call those bugs :) locscreen settings can be made black anytime & as navigation bar is an third party app, it may or may not be dependent on rom default settings as many are independent

& I don't get which about toggle are you talking about, cause my toggles looks same as SS, what is the language you are using?

Yes you can replace with any launcher you want

[Xperia Arc Android Development] jkjacek:
Why do you copy bad practice from Z and Z1 ;) ?

Not all 'innovations' from Sony are user friendly. Torch in this place is really convenient as well as several steps of brightness.

IMHO it is waste of time trying to obtain more UI customizable and beautiful rom because all your roms are really good.

If I can compare your [Xperia Z1 Honami ROM_Exclusive Edition] is for sure the best rom I ever use on ArcS and your [Iridescent_Zed_One] is probably the most beautiful.

So to everyday usage I select the your [Xperia Z1 Honami ROM_Exclusive Edition] rom. Because it is excellent :).

OK, but could you (or somebody else) give me link to systemUI that include torch and more than 2 brightness steps and is compatible with this beautiful rom?
