I have the feeling that this leaked version is actually the .253 base that they pulled off. For the customers they decided to release this version as a leak. The actual 256 version won't have these bugs. Well this is what i think and it makes sense to me
[Xperia SP Android Development] noahvt:
Bugs I had: yesterday my battery went below 14% the screen started randomly turning off and when turned back on it skipped the lockscreen also after that vibration stopped working and then the ram was so low.it couldn't load the Launcher anymore and I had to reboot

Hey BE2 working for me on leaked 4.3. :good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] DooMLoRD:
Why are you watching Dhoom 3 :P

You won't see BE difference with screenshots
[Xperia SP Android Development] kingofmb:
Lolz.. this is just a trailer for benchmark to see BE difference coz too lazy to find decent images for comparison :laugh:
[Xperia SP Android Development] Pulsa:
Yeah, you're right the BE2 is working, I compared it with XZ1, playing Xperia HD landscape, and i just noticed a little differences
[Xperia SP Android Development] danielhariri:
best score i ever had in any rom :D underclock - 1.5v adv domkernel

ram management suck its becos of bloatware.. just delete everything :D
[Xperia SP Android Development] Sadman Khan:
Yeah you have a point :/
[Xperia SP Android Development] sadique_shiblee:
Ya, They could release 'Release Candidate' or 'Release Preview' or 'Developer's Preview' like windows. We all could give our input/observations to make the ROM GREAT. then release the final version. Along with that they could have some additional features idea for the next rom version or next phone model...
[Xperia SP Android Development] DooMLoRD:
i get about 23k in antutu on Xperia Z... so i guess sony has done some amazing optimizations in this ROM...

FYI dont depend too much on benchmarks...
[Xperia SP Android Development] danielhariri:
i dont depend on it.. i love CM but every ver of it benchmark get low.. but this leak ver awesome!! it optimized so well(maybe RAM cn be abit better) thank u doomlord

If we can get this to work we will be able to boot this ROM as well as AOSP based ROM's on a LOCKED boot loader, this will be helpful to those with a locked boot loader (I think I am the only developer with a locked bootloader at the current time) which of those that have bootloader unlock allowed:no

Check after 2 days :

The Flash ROM : ( I charged the battery to 100% )

During this period, the Brightness setting in Auto mode , and below 50 % and to 10% at night and Auto mode was changed .

8 hours with WiFi Online Applications :

Viber Online

Yahoo Mail Online

Nimbuzz

CallRecorder

By downloading the software randomly every few hours to 5 minutes to download and install and tested softwares.

After 3 hours of charging to reach 91 %

Listen to Music with Power Amp with Speaker and 30 minutes to 10 minutes to 85 % charge will HandsFree

When I 'm in charge until charge from 85% to 43 % extra

Call 20 min + between 20 to 30 messages and I 'm totally WiFi Online is the new email - Viber and nimbuzz online

Results

Very low consumption in standby mode was fantastic StaminaMode

Excellent WiFi range ( previous problems : the distance should be 2-3 yards Router - DSL Modem she sometimes had to be cut by 10 meters totally , but now there's no speed loss in the worst case a clear signal like 2 houses )

It has been a great change MultiTasking problem is over, and the speed with simultaneous removal of software (eg NinjaSMS - YahooMail - Numbuzz - Cymera same as the previous state that was left was the task Luncher available )

Blue light, and will not turn off

should be once Display On - Off by Power Button then turn off the LED lights
[Xperia SP Android Development] Sadman Khan:
Just installed this. Can't wait anymore and i have to admit, it was well worth it. I have no problems so far! Multitasking is great for me and no more of launcher redraws. Wifi is definitely better. But i kinda wish the camera was better :/

BT phonecall volume

Has any body tested Bluetooth audio volume in phone conversation?

As we know it's terrible with the current official ROM - you can barely here the other party and vice-versa.
[Xperia SP Android Development] WujekT:
For me RAM management is still a problem. Maybe it's don't aggressive like in previous ROMs, but I have problem with RAM overloads, apps are killed again and again and phone need a restart. I also have problem with GSM signal strength, but maybe this is by different market customisation.

Great audio on Plantronics ML-25. First call almost blew my years! Also bt media audio is fantastic compared to .254.

On the topic of experience - very nice and smooth. Too bad for the white settings, though. I love the animations etc. Camera seems better, not great - superior auto is still a joke.

Has anyone tried enabling BE2 after BL unlock on this rom? Or I should've done it before flashing 4.3?

I found some fun bug (well maybe not that fun...).

After flashing my mac changed to something completely different.

Found that out when tried to connect to my work wifi. It was quite a surprise to see "association rejected", lol (I'm the sysadmin/communications engineer here).

Reverted back to my own stock .254 - mac was back to original. Flashed again - again the same different mac address. So it's repeatable.

I searched and found THIS FIX (credit goes to OP).

Flashed it over the leaked 4.3 and my original mac was back.

Oh and FYI - my first flash of 4.3 had broken camera. I was on .254 with

Cyber-shot

mod before that. Flashed original .254 and then 4.3 - no problems.

DooMLoRD, thank you for all your great doings to this community!

Time to change my sig now. :D

This will be done manually so you will need root explorer to set the correct permissions, otherwise nothing will work.

DELETE al Notes related apps, they are not compatible with the new one.

-NoteWidget.apk

-SemcNotes.apk

-SmallApp-Notes.apk

-SmallApp-Recorder.apk

Now you can install SomcNotes.apk. THERE IS NO WIDGET FOR THIS NEWER APP

Install everything, Active clipper needs SomcSketch, and SomcCamera widget may need more camera add-ons.

Now install the other apps as usual with the correct permissions. Check out this thread for the newer media apps: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2608620

How did you get the firmware? Via Sony programs or something more "unofficial"? Because maybe there is a chance that the kernel is signed by Sony, so it will work on locked BL.

There is a kernel inside the rom zip you flashed. "kernel.elf" flash that and you'll see that the ram problems are gone. I also used advanced stock kernel first but after i switched to the kernel inside the rom.zip, all the ram problems are gone.
