what kernel are you using?

because there is no repartitioned kernel for that heavy system in xperia play section
[Xperia Play Android Development] krchi:
tested doesnt work with neo l keep gettin status 7 in both lupus and turbo 1st time it was like um symlink :some symlinks failed so then i removed those lines in the updater script and after i tried to install i got set_perm: some changes failed and so i removed those lines in the updater script all those lines and got bootloop can you please make this compatible with Xperia Neo L
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
tested

after too many changes i finally got it boot(i moved all the apps to data using a zip that i found in motorolla xoom forum and i rewrited all the update.script files)

keyboard force closes all the time

when you go everything will be weird and buttons wont work(setting is landscape)

i hadnt testes anything else because of keybaord force close and other things
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
I tested also.

I used Lupus JB v8 480p kernel, so to fit rom ROM in ~310MB system partition i had to move a lot of app from system to data folder in zip file.

Wifi don't work (even i tried wifi fix from kernel menu), keyboard fc constantly, camera don't work, dialer din't work for me and i had no sound at all.

I'll try later today with different kernel and to choose different apps to move from system to data to see is some errors are related to that.

rom is too much buggy
[Xperia Play Android Development] r4_broadcast:
Please [MENTION=2482775]Achotjan[/MENTION]... Post the kernel you are using... there are a lot of ROM's tthat can be used with a System Partition of more than 300 MB
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
Achotjan haven't released his kernel yet because he doesn't have any xperia to work on for now (as i know donation is complete and hi will get a xperia 2011 device soon and maybe xperia play :D )

and for now this rom is not working well on xperia play

i think i found why the wifi is not working but i cant test it because of other problems in the rom (setting bug and keyboard bug)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Achotjan:
HI, i am prepairing a new update for play,could you make a complete buglist what is known , thank you

cheers

Achotjan
[Xperia Play Android Development] krchi:
The system is too large make it smaller and you should have addon zips and also fix the updater-script cause when i try to install on neo l i get symlink :some symlinks failed status 7 then i remove those lines and get set_perm: some changes failed status 7 and when i go to remove those lines rom installs but dont boot so yea change those and make it compatible with neo l thanks!
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
these are the problems with play

1-keyboard force closes all the time

2-in setting everything will be land scape and as i saw it regonized play gamepad open. also buttons wont work well in setting

3-wifi is not working

4-phone application is not working (not tested by myself)

also xperia play users need a new kernel for installing this rom

i installed it with symlink method myself that made my data partiton 100mg only
[Xperia Play Android Development] Achotjan:
Uploading RC1.1 for xperia Play, Ray, Pro

those devcies had problem with circle and general hardware releated problems, andthey shuld be fixed in this build

rom is uploading

for xperia Play moved many app to data so it shuld install without errors, however in future we will change kernels map to get more space on /system partition and remove this hack

cheers

Achotjan
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Still not fixed, it gives me Status 7 in installation, why don't you map the kernel to have more space in system than data? And also superstamina port? :P I'm just giving a suggestion.
[Xperia Play Android Development] krchi:
thing is that neo l doesnt have a thread you can just post it in this forum with a patch for neo l

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:04 PM ----------

the dev will release a kernel for every phone of his sde project but for now only rom in the future when his kernel is released im sure the superstamina code will be implemented in the kernel and the mapping of the kernel will be changed. what kind of status 7? like symlink :some symlinks or set_perm: some changes failed what kind of status 7?
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
most if the devs of neo l will post their work on xperia neo forum

some of them will only release it on xperia play forum with only a patch for neo l

[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
Tested 1.2RC on Lupus JB v8 480p kernel.

Also constant hotboots when i unlock the screen. It ask me to choose Setup Guide or Xperia Launcher and after i click on either it hotboot (also, there is "android.process.media has FC" message).

[MENTION=2482775]Achotjan[/MENTION] Which OS you prefer? Win 7 x64 or Ubuntu 13.10 in VirtualBox? I have teamviewer9 in both
[Xperia Play Android Development] mrbtree98:
constant hot boots on rc 1.2, i'm using lupus jb v13 480p if that helps
[Xperia Play Android Development] Achotjan:
can anyone pleas snd me a logcat of the rom boot till the bootloop so i can see where the problem is ?

will release RC2 n the end of the week with somme improvement but if it will not boot on play ten ther is no interest on releasing it for play so i need to fix those think firs as soon they are fixed rc2 will be released

cheers

Achotjan
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
I couldn't get logs on first run because adb debugging wasn't enabled but going strait to settings from notification bar i managed to enable it after few hotboots.

I'll attach two logcats. First is made after reboot, while phone is still in lockscreen, and second log is about 20 seconds later, when i get to point of to choose between launcher and setup guide (and about 1second before hotboot)
[Xperia Play Android Development] Achotjan:

[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Changelog please? Is the hot reboot fixed?
[Xperia Play Android Development] Achotjan:
it shuld be fixed in this version it was caused by radio libs and app that shuldnt be on xperia play

cheers

Achotjan
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Will try it now and tell you back, merci beacoup mon amie.
[Xperia Play Android Development] gangstermartorell:
Here is my feedback:

- Rom takes too long to boot, I think is because it's too largue.

- The rom works so far, there is no hot boot, or something else.

- Sometimes becomes too slow, I think that there are lots of things that aren't necessary.

- In settings, FC when you go to Apps/Apps in execution.

- The Wifi doesn't work.

Overall, I think that this needs a lot of work fixing these things, I couldn't manage to fix the wifi, maybe someone can catch where the problem is. Good work indeed on this rom, but needs more things to be better:good:
[Xperia Play Android Development] raminta:
[MENTION=2482775]Achotjan[/MENTION] I have tested the Rom too and I had same problems plus in home when I select theme Xperia luncher give fc

Thank u for this great rom:thumbup:
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
wifi problem is caused by build.prob for 99%

because i saw that it has all the other needed files for wifi
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
maybe..or any symlink is missing from updater script..;)
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
checked the update-script

its completely fine

also checked all bin / lib /etc files related to wifi

they are fine too
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
It took me a while, but i think i found a solution for wifi

It's missing two files in /system/vendor/firmware

fw_bcm4329.bin and

fw_bcm4329_apsta.bin

taken from FXP237, copied and set permission to 644

Unfortunately, no more time for testing tonight, i'll look for other bugs tomorrow..
[Xperia Play Android Development] inuer:
permissions 644 rw-r-r ?
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
here its s flashable from bakisha file,thanks to him.:)

flash,reboot.see if it s working.:good:

[Xperia Play Android Development] inuer:
nice work bro :good:
[Xperia Play Android Development] MegaRacingHD:
Thanks for the WIFI fix. I have problems with the Soundenhancement. It doesn´t work for me.

EDIT: Touchpads also not working.
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
Thanks for the flashable zip

I can confirm its working

My review:

Speed in the first 2-3 reboots is awful but after that rom gets awsome

I can run vector on my phone. Its a little slower than uhd 6 beta (my own port) but its much faster than Iridescent Zed two

Multitasking is better than uhd 6 beta and Iridescent Zed. Apps dont get closed as soon as you press homw button ;)

Didn't test much games on it because i don't use this play for gaming but casual games are as fast as you want

Problems

1- hangouts force closes after set up guide but its fine after that

2-some little miss themings for example setting icons are blue instead of orange

3-sound enhancements doesn't work :( when you touch it phone will be laggy as hell

4-boot time is very long

untested: touchpads and gamepads
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
Fixed sound enhancements by moving soundenhancments.apk from data/app to system/app

Also found out that xloud is not working
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
I am using 400MB partitition, with lupus v13 480p kernel. and so far it by far most futured xperia-styled rom (for me, at least). i'll use it as daily driver to see if there is some little bugs somewhere.

So far, i only found that i can't add twitter timescape account (something about authentication failed error) and few fc in xperia launcher when adding/removing some widgets

Most importantly, touchpads don't work (only in fpse it work). Tested on following games :

-dead trigger: no touchpads

-asphalt 6: can't start game ("this game can only be used on sony erricson r800i" error)

-nova 3, gangstar rio, space troopers: dpad works, but no touchpads

I'll look into build.prop , but most likely fix have to beimplemented in framework (maybe [MENTION=4582141]CriGiu[/MENTION] can help with that)
[Xperia Play Android Development] CriGiu:
If you guys need I can do it, no problem.

Just provide framework.jar and I'll make a fix ASAP
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
Thanks, i know you are good at fixing touchpads made by fai**eren***** (damn, i just can'r remember that guy's nick :p )

take a look at build.prop, if you have time
[Xperia Play Android Development] smokerman:
still here..nice to see..if someone can test my new release for touchpads if its working or no i will appreciate..i have tried to fix it, but if doesnt work maybe you can fix.:good:
[Xperia Play Android Development] CriGiu:
Seems like framework has already been fixed, only problem I can think of is, in fact, build.prop (there were a few wrong values)

Check attachments for my modification of build.prop

yeah, I'm not as active as I once was though, I'm planning to move on another device
[Xperia Play Android Development] MegaRacingHD:
Thanks it worked :good:

It someone wants to change to color to blue for example just flash the colors from this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2125511
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
Thanks, that fixed asphalt 6 (game started now, but without touchpads working, only dpads)

It fixes touchpads in dead trigger and space trooper, but not in Nova 3 amd gangstar rio. i guess it's per game thing, and i don't have much experience in JB compatibility with touchpads.

But, again, thanks!
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
More i use this rom i will saw more awsome things in it

I fixed the problem about small data partition byvusing 400mg system mod and moving system apps installed by the rom from data/app to system app

Then i found out the rom has calculator and timescape and calander and email app (they were not working because the couldnt be moved to data partition)

Everything is this rom is the same as sony framework(only missing thing from sony jb frimware is theme accent and thats not important)

Also sabiq nazm theme accent changer will work with this rom

(my own theme accent cant change lockscreen wallpaper and wallpaper. Im searching for the reason but im tired now )

Edit: im not sure about battery life because im using my semi-dead battery on my friends xperia play (his own was completly destroyed :p ) but i never had my play not charged for 1 day long but i reached this number on this rom
[Xperia Play Android Development] MegaRacingHD:
I found 2 bugs for me:

- in settings there are no information about my battery. He doesn´t show me which application uses much battery and which doesn´t.

- Phone doesn´t connect to PC. It charges but it doesn´t show me my SD-Card.
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
im using this rom and i don't see your second problem (im not sure i will check it now)

but i agree with your first problem

______________________________________________________

i saw that xloud is working for some little time but then it stops (the sound is even a little higher than ics roms when xloud is working :eek: )

and i found that download music info is working in this rom :eek:

im searching all over xda for solution of xloud but i didn't found a way for fixing it :(

______________________________________________________

im using this rom for 2 days without reboot (i wana check if it work well or it gets slow down like ics and needs reboot)

i have some little lags but its much better than ics roms
[Xperia Play Android Development] Bakisha:
I found few more bugs:

-In album, when choosing "SensMe slideshow" , app Photo Analyzer Service FC. Even if i turn off face recognition from options, it stll FC. If i press play to play sensme slideshow it doesn't work with toast message "enable face detection from option menu to analyze photos in background" (even if it's disbled in options)

-in timescape friends widgets, it show only my icon, but not icons from facebook friends (small bug, but hey :p )

-i still didn't found solution how to connect twitter account in timescape

-i can confirm it doesn't show connections to PC (i didn't notice it before because i use Total Commander with adb plugin to access phone/sd card and it's working fine when debugging is enabled)

As for battery life, i still didn't formed an opnion. Sometimes it's great (1 or 2% per hour with wifi/3g with the help of super stamina) and sometimes it drain battery like hell (few time i put it to reboot and didn't look and it drained battery for 1 hour like it was on heavy use). but it's maybe my apps, so take that info with reserve

Sound volume is great, just like ics or gb. I still have to test xloud's bug, i notice it, but i think once i exit walkman app, xloud start working again.

Also, i must i say i love this rom! Most roms comes debloated, but i like timescape and all those Sony's extra apps and this rom come fully futured and it handle games pritty well. I am not heavy gamer, so i don't ask for free ram ("if it works, it have enough free ram" :p )
[Xperia Play Android Development] alko_m:
Hi!

I really like this ROM and want to try it on my Neo L.

Can somebody tell my what should I change in build.prop except model name, and maybe I need to replace some apks?

What kernel should I use? I think any JB with enough space in system partition?

It would be great if somebody make a neo l patch for this ROM :o
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
well you dont need a patched build.prob

the only problem that you will get is xperia play name instead of neo l in setting

heres the kernel: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1958453

but you have to install this mod first

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=49210871

(mod is not needed for installation. but if you want to move apps installed by rom.zip to data partition to system for getting back your lovely data partition you will need it)
[Xperia Play Android Development] sagar.bendale:
hey i have installed this on NEO L. with the lupus jbv10 for neo L without flashing arc s ftf.

problems i faced :

1. cannot sync with facebook. can though proceed with twitter but i dont use that.

2. cannot use timescape. it won't open remains on tap to set up

3. yes hangout force closes but it works.

4. also pop up comes in a while play store has stopped working but it works.

5. on the first boot percentage battery in notifacation disappears, though it is enabled in power management option. so have to disable and re-enable it. havent observed it in subsequent boots. will notify you later.

6. cannot connect to PC. pc shows xperia play is connected but doesnt show anything o.O on phone android.media.process stops working

7. wifi disconnects after screen lock. (no power saver and keep wifi on during sleep is set to always) strange o.O

xloud is working. yet to check if it stops as you have mentioned earlier. loved this as i wanted that with JB roms :good:

smooth. :good:

if it can be added to systemUI to add more toggles it will be great. and long pressing them to open the respective setting.

i am low on internal memory is there any way to have more memory to install apps. as play store says insufficient storage place. (have removed some apps to install new ones ) but still if there is a way let me know.
[Xperia Play Android Development] alko_m:
sagar.bendale you need to flash arc s ftf to have more space on /system partition so you could move some apps from /data where you have a lack of memory as pedyvirus sayed :)

I'll try to install it today and will write here what works for me. I dont care about all issues you wrote except 6 and 7, so I think it would be great ROM for me :P
[Xperia Play Android Development] sagar.bendale:
thanks for the reply. but lupus kernel already have 380 or 400 mb partition. anyway i am loving this rom. only if i get social engine working then it would have been a cherry on top
[Xperia Play Android Development] krchi:
um no?? the partition is in the kernel?
[Xperia Play Android Development] pedyvirus:
well not every time

if kernel doesn't have edited partition layout you can get partition of arc s (400mg system ) working on it with my guide [MENTION=4778442]sagar.bendale[/MENTION]

none of the jb kernels have 380mg or 400mg system partition :)
[Xperia Play Android Development] sagar.bendale:
okk.. thanks a lot. will that help in having running timescape and social core engine ? do you have it running? you know it is the best JB rom i have ever used. i don't care about gaming. over all performance is too much good (i havent even overclocked XD)... if there is a gamer he can review his gaming experience.

and about the boot time you mentioned. that is for the first boot only. subsequent boots take lesser time.
[Xperia Play Android Development] alko_m:
I've tested this rom and I like it! It is a lot of things to work on, but It already great!

Few bugs that I have found:

- a lot of apps situated in /data/app/ don't work and need to be placed to /system/app/ (there is enough space for this even without 400mb kernel) among them SoundEnhancment, eMail, Calculator, Calendar, Walkman widget, maybe something else (I wasn't try timeskape)

- DLNA cant find devices

- auto brightness don't work

- all that was written here before me :)

Hope Dev will continue to update this awesome ROM.

Sorry for my English :p

ED: settings made in SDE control/Performance resets to default after reboot even if "Set on boot" checked
[Xperia Play Android Development] krchi:
im impressed with this rom i am an xperia neo l user that fact that bugs me is that on lupus v10 kernel wifi and stuff works but very little storage space ok so then i go to user turbo kernel rom boots but the wifi doesnt work.... not even after i install the wifif fix

EDIT: got wifi to work after a fresh install impressive now i have like 600mb on data cause of turbo kernel so i advise neo l users use turbo for more space and i think xperia play users that turbo kernel too? so use it
[Xperia Play Android Development] sagar.bendale:
that's kernel related stuff. :)
