Let me make this straight. It seemed that you have a problem that is imaginary and concerned so much over it. Small lags should be fine. We are not running a 3.7GHz of beast here. Even if you are using a hardcore gaming PC with a whopping 4GHz overclocked octacore CPU, lags will always be there. Just ain't constantly.

I myself isn't that happy with my battery life on Cyanogenmod. But I am grateful as I don't have to face with pooping stock ROM anymore. Compared to stock, I lost 1% per minute on high usage. That's the only problem I faced. But with idle or standard phone usage it is quite near to the stock experience. But did I created multiple threads about my battery problem?

If you really need buttery smooth, I extremely suggest, use a super-computer. That will definitely solve your issue once and for all. Though you might have portability issues ;)

These aren't offences, I am serious. Please don't take it as an offend :angel:

Force yourself to cope with it. It isn't lag as hell you know. Appreciate it. If you really can't stand it, I suggest selling this crap phone, and forget about it. We have OPPO, One Plus One, and many other better options to choose so why stay with this crap anyway

If any I suggest you to use the "OnDemand" CPU governor. Isn't satisfying enough? Then "Performance" so that your phone will constantly running 1.7GHz until you turn the screen off.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] rdlegy:
As I said I don't have the lag I had after restarting and wiping cache. Strange I don't know how it got fixed. Atm phone runs fine and notification drawer isn't lagging it is only what I think, because when I set it up to max brightness I don't see any lag. It was just me. From yesterday to now I can't recognize my phone. Big improvement and much faster than 4.3 and also less laggy A LOT LESS even tho I was with moded 4.3. Strange, but from a laggy phone it turned out a nexus :D
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] TechnoSparks:
Nice to see it worked out great for you then! :)
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] francescohtc:
install trickster mod and try this settings:

Read Ahead Buffer Size: 3072

Scheduler: Deadline

Minimum Frequency: 486mhz (don't know if is just placebo effect but maybe can solve some stuttering problems sometimes)

Governor: Ondemand

MPDecision: OFF ( when is on it cause audio glitches and latency problems)

The phone will become very responsive and faster, the battery will drain faster when the screen is on, but, trust me, finally a usable phone.

No offence my friend, but in my opinion you never used a smooth device with android 4.4, i used and saw device with a SoC 30%-50% slower than this smartphone fly with cyano rom, just who never used a good tuned kernel can say that this device doesn't lag and doesn't suffer stutter, this is the worst device i have ever used in my entire life, the problem is the SoC or something that have to mess with hardware.

And trust me mate, i can open a museum with all smartphones in my home... ;)

I agree that this phone lagged on CM11 M11 but after switching to CM11 M12 by MrSteve I didn't faced ANY LAG AT ALL.

When I tried other phones I noticed it wasn't me. The phone is just not smooth with 4.3,4.4 and all the roms I have tried. It is fast, but for some reason not smooth. I don't think that a stable version of lollipop will even fix this lack of smoothness.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Theliakos:
yes ! you are right ! its like there is a problem in hadware that doesnt make the phone smooth ! i dont know whats the problem but i havent found a smooth rom with out lags ! also this device is one of the number of devices that wont be supported by many developers ! even though its a beast in hardware specs
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] rdlegy:
Sadly it's true :( I hope we get a smooth rom until the end of the year

The FXP builds work wonderfully. The official CM builds are very laggy.

I don't know why this is, they are supposed to be from the same sources.

Hardware decoding from mx player is working on this rom with same quality from sony rom???

Any bravia engine mod for this rom???

Any monitor white control for this rom???

Any kernel with faux sound that works perfectly with this rom???

I already tried official cm11 and snapshot m10 and was very laggy and slow, then i'm thinking in try this rom now...

Lags

Guys, is there any solution for the lags? My phone is nearly unusable, sometimes random freezes take minutes. Everything crashes after becoming unresponsive.

I recently updated the rom and use Dalvik runtime.

I was talking about the Radio app which uses phones radio bro, in order to connect to local FM service here in Bangalore
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] sarkar1990:
And as I said install Spirit FM. Its not internet FM, its FM over the air, the one which you are talking about. Its a XDA app. There is a free version. Use the one which says ".Spirit FM" without the quotes obviously.

I've installed FXP347. Boot without problems. Flash kernel from zip package via fastboot.

No sound?

There is no sound if I play any video/audio, neither there is any sound in-call, have to turn on the speaker for calls.

I am currently on FXP347, previously I used FXP343, have also tried CM nightlies, but this issue is consistent on all.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] pipi14:
FXP builds and CM nightlies are the same
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Ungewiss:
Is there a way to reduce the screen brightness like in stock rom? The lowest setting in CM is way higher than in stock rom.

Another thing - are there plans to fix the encryption anytime soon?

Edit: is it possible to quicklaunch the camera via shutter button like in stock rom?
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Furrydaus:
The best way to lower your screen brightness far lower than stock and cm is to utilize the application called; Darker, from the Google Play Store. It is able to reduce system brightness and also reduce the brightness of the navigation bar which most screen brightness apps don't do.

Encryption isn't really important for developers usually and it may take time before they look to that.

As far as I know, the shutter button does not work in cyanogenmod Roms. You might want to use apps which may bind the button to the camera application instead
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] gaumzi2010:
I am a very much excited to try Custom ROMs on my Xperia SP..but everytime i feel hesitated by reading the fact that certain basic things like brightness adjustments, radio, etc require additional app download from Play store. Don't you guys think this basic things can be taken care at ROM level itself...Custom ROMs as I understand should be to provide features over and above the stock ROM features or do away with bloats...or something which improves the performance over and above stock rom...Somewher i feel uncomfortable everytime when i read that i need to add from play store for the feature which was already in Stock...!!
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] [==)BULLET(==]:
For me camera opens after long pressing the shutter button on MrSteve build cm11.

Sent from XSP using my hands!
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] ireaper4592:
so try stock roms then:highfive:
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Ungewiss:
Thanks, but that does not really (electrically) reduce the brightness but just applies a filter.

Ok, it isn't that important to me either.

The button (second trigger level) calls the camera and can take photos, as long as the device is unlocked.

What I ment is the quickstart-to-camera-mode which the stock rom offers. There you can hold the camera button while the device is sleeping and then it wakes up and starts the camera in like 1.5seconds.

Starting the camera from the lockscreen widget is way slower (like 2-3s :) ) but fast enough for me. I just got used to the "stock way" and missed it.

Brightness adjustment works *way* better than on stock rom. You can't compare those, because in comparison stock rom just sucks. Only it can dim the screen a bit further down than cm.

Thanks, it works on the "official" builds, too, as long as the device is already unlocked. I must have been too impatient when pressing the button :)

i have a question, i think everyone had this probs with the cyanogen based rom which is MICROPHONE n SPEAKER volume is so low...

what should i do to increase it? i think its relate to etc\snd_soc_msm\snd_soc_msm_2x file but i cant find any

yes i cn always use fauxcntrol but only in nayakernel i dont want to miss any feature on cyan kernel cn somebody help me? fxp306
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] persian99:
its not low, youre probably used to the xLOUD feature found in stock ROMs. i just realized this when i installed the new 4.3 update. cyanogen roms dont have this same feature and i have asked the devs to consider adding this feature.

note: even after maximizing the speaker volume using nayakkernel it is still nowhere near as loud as xLOUD

Daamn I just flashed FXP 303 yesterday because I wasn't able to flash 307... :D Sorry for the noob question, but do I need to wipe data before flashing this 308 or can I just wipe cache and dalvik cache? I'm using 303 with nayak kernel... Thanks in advance
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] dotzi75:
Wipe just cache and dalvik if you want to save your data! The best way is a clean install with wipe everything. You can make a nandroid backup, and restore your apps with nandroid manager. I always use this method, for me it's the best sollution to install a new rom on my device without problems.
[Xperia SP Original Android Development] Jmih:
okay just flashed the ROM today and I am very much impressed by this so called unofficial ROM. I am kind of new here but why is this unofficial? kk has been released on some phones right? and one more question can you please make the kernel yo flash when we are flashing the ROM? I was on .254 doomkernel and was getting an error 7 when flashing the ROM directly from .254 kernel. I had to plug the device then fastboot the device and so on. BTW great ROM and a really stable one too. have usual small bugs with sp but that's a great job. thanks.

Try pushing this file to /system/vendor/lib/hw(and set permissions as rw r r). It should decrease the minimal brightness to 1(stock) from 10.

Wow, this is just great. Thank you!

I had to push it via adb in CWM and now the brightness can be set as low as in stock.

[Xperia SP Original Android Development] donk165:
Well im glad people agree with me, I thought the Lollipop hype would make everyone forget about Kitkat.

Pretty sure your right on the point there, it makes sense and you can definitely see the phone lock up and freeze whenever installing apps from the play store, the store app doesn't really respond until the install is complete. It also explains why some users don't get the freezing issues because maybe they got better binned chips in their phone so they don't get slow I/O transfer rates.

Its a shame because I bet if the storage chips were of a higher quality, this phone wouldn't have the little freezes it gets, and it would be really smooth.
