First of all a big thanks to [MENTION=4766488]Abhinav2[/MENTION] for bringing this rom to our devices.!

I loved the overall UI of the OS which is certainly better than the vanilla look.

The rom is fairly stable for an Alpha build and have almost all things working as are in CM 11 builds.

Hellkat is amazed me for the amount of customization it offers.

I was surprised to see customization regarding init.d and build.prop tweaks...!!:good:

Hoping for a continued support for this promising rom..!!!

Keep up the good work. :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
wow, such a nice rom! i like it.

nice to see a new rom based on a kitkat.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Warhoax:
Never seen this rom before, didn't know of it existence but I'm going to flash this right now and see how wicked it is!

I'm amazed about what you are doing for all Xperia P users! Thank you (and your team?).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
I don't work in team as of now but obviously many great people help me :)

Xperia U and Sola users get ready for a build :)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] STORMBAY:
hel yea new rom for my xperia p. But why you developers don't join and solve the remain bugs in cm 11? As you know percy left OMX lib, so one more thing to solve.

Any way rom loks cool!! :cowboy:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
Everything is being tried to fix(not by me :p). Percy is working on blue tooth as of now and most probably we'll get a fully working in some days(MAYBE!).

Rom is working great. I'm a fan of blue so it's heartbreaking that this rom is all red.

But the features that this rom offers and the insane speed makes me stay with this rom, no doubt.

Well, its built from CM11 source, so it can be from the last updates from CM11, including Nightly 24 from percy_g2 ^^

I saw OP, thats why I'm asking!

Your file zip maybe corrupt, redownload again, or you can test zip before use winrar on your computer...cmiiw..
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
Flash boot.img first. And you most probably wiped system. Delete the first three assert device lines from updater script and then flash.

Cheers,

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
CM 11 source mean CyanogenMod source. This is not a closed zip port. This is a source built ROM.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lovesky37:
Do flash boot.img damage CWM? and where is the updater script should i edit?.

Thank you

Not the zip file, I checked it already :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
its because u didnt fastboot flashed boot.img with flashtool...by vol+ with blue led.

u know how to do it and u have proper drivers cuz u unlocked bl.

U unzip package plug device into fastboot and, by cmd or else flashtool, u fastboot flash boot.img.

Then wipes from recovery, flash rom zip and gapps.

It's basis for cm roms bro! ;)

you can always install a theme from play store or use this small adjust to blue:

if anyone want can flash this:http://d-h.st/RdG

go to themes choose betterkat blue.gonna give you a error on system..apply anyway. go to wallpapers cm wallpapers and navigate..choose a blue version wallpaper present there.:good:

thanks to SRIJITH for the theme and to me for editing wallpapers.:)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] saddykhan:
very nice rom..i would like to flash it and want to experience, before that want to know "what's WORKING and what's NOT". i know it's irritating question we should not crib about the development, but still i would be thankfull
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
If you know its irritating question then don't ask :)

And to answer your question, the bugs will be CM 11, i.e., video recording and buggy bluetooth.

Cheers,

AJ
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lovesky37:
I unblocked bl, fastboot boot.img in zip file then wipe and flash zip but still same error. Need to edit updater script in zip file to remove model checker lines (due to I changed my phone model LT22i to LT30p before). It's difficult now because have wiped old rom and can copy the rom to phone anymore, I will restore backup. I am not a professtional cm roms user

update: I flash the rom successfully. I will update the blue theme. Seem that the flash remove the CMW recovery
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lovesky37:
Not see the wallpaper like in your picture. In Setting/Themes i see a BetterKat theme and a system theme. T
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Warhoax:
I doubt that it has removed CWM recovery, I just assume that you are pressing the wrong button.

Start your device and press the power button when it vibrates at the sony logo. (Not the volume down button).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
If u need to get back on previous rom it doesn t matter u made the wipes...device cannot be like "romless" its impossible just have to flash kernel according previous rom; make full wipes and it will start; then u remove these assert lines in zip without extracting files then u save and shoot it to sd and re fastboot flash boot.img from hellkat and finally make the wipes and flash the rom...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] minervehp:
Can I change to another theme?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
Are u kidding?

answer is not that far away...just look 3 posts before yours and #32

I just tried CM 11 from Percy and I have a few questions about Hell Kat Rom:

1. Is video playback working

2. Is app on sd working (like xda app)

3.And last is NFC (tags) working

Sorry for such basic and non development questions but there is no working/not working list. I know it's alpha and I can't exspect a rom for daily use.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] macabrocabral:
1. No

2. No, but here on the forum have a workaround for that. Search.

3. Some users say it isnt working, never tested cuz I dont have tags to test. So the answer to that is no too xD
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
I played a videoclip in .mpg with mxplayer...didnt try video streaming on youtube and video recording doesn't work

Moving apps to SD seems to work.

and about tags i will give a shot tonight afterwork if nobody did it before.

Its maybe alpha build but...my gf is using it as daily driver so...stable enough! looolll

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] minervehp:
I don't know how to change it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Warhoax:
You can change themes for this rom, just like any other CM based rom.

But you have to keep in mind that you'll always see a little bit of red on some occasions.

Any theme won't cover the whole red colour from this team, but most of it will be gone.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] itachilinux:
[MENTION=4766488]Abhinav2[/MENTION], you can try to contact or PM [MENTION=5265970]95A31[/MENTION] for fixing bluetooth on this ROM.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperiaPD:
I searched in Xperia P development forum but didn't find anything for the problem with apps on sd (like xda) on cm11 roms

HellKat backup

Please, is possible to make unofficial ROM backup like for example via Sony PC Companion in case of official ROM? Thank you for your answer, guys. ;)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
Backup Android 4.4

Thank you, it is possitive. :D But how: I connected my phone to Sony Companion, but HellKat is not official firmware so, the program is communicating with my phone like with the enemy. :D What program would you recommend me, please? :) I mean to make all phone settings and programs data backup. When I will reinstall the firmware, I want to save my time by again installing all my apps. :laugh:

Add: Oh my god, I am stupid... Thank you.I will try the program. If I will not get a friend in it, I will ask once more. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
Recovery Mod

One more question - request for help, please. I am not able to boot into Recovery mode. I have opened bootloader, but when I switch my phone ON, my LED does not blink so, I can press UP volume buton as much as I wish, but without any result. My phone still boots into normal mode. Also GooManager - showed me update of HellKat ROM, I download it, but the program does not upgrade the ROM. I tried to do it via Recovery mod, but unsuccessfully. What could I do, please? :confused:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Alx31:
U pressed power button to access recovery..?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
Yes, I did... :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
ROM Upgrade

Well, I was successfull with Recovery bootloading. I had to press and HOLD power button until second vibration and continously pushing UP button until Recovery booted... :D

But - after installation of upgraded HellKat 20130131 (I did it like at the first post of this thread step by step), I got a message, that Setup stopped work. So I re-booted the phone and the same issue. I did it maybe 5 times, but than helped only re-installation back to original version of the ROM. :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Abhinav1997:
That's because of gApps.

AJ
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
GApps

Aha....OK. Anyway, I used GApps 4.4... :confused: So, which GApps should be used now, please? Because GApps, which I use now, have no problem with original HellKat version.... :o
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] hliasant:
4.4.2 gapps obviously...

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
Yes, I put there 3 different I have downloaded, but of course for Android 4.4 x ....but still the same. :( So, I have to run on 20130119 version anyway.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XperiaPD:
use slim gapps from percy_g for android 4.4
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] bambuchko:
whether working NFC?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] memoriaZzdena:
GApps

I have downloaded 3 different GApps. All 3 worked in 3 different ROMs, I´ve installed and tested. The only this last upgraded ROM is a problem for me. So, even is update released, I run on my previous one. I don´t know if only I have a problem with it or it is some other way on my side. :o

Just for info - I downloaded this ROM .zip file through GooManager, but also from internet via my computer, but with still same effect...

I tried flashing Omega ROM v21 but it kept me stuck on the bootscreen so I tried to reflash my phone with the stock firmware. Whenever I try this it however fails on aboot.mbn. I've read some stuff and it appears to be caused by the fact that OmegaV21 required the new bootloader and you are unable to flash to an older firmware than the bootloader. Is there a way to flash the old bootloader or flash a ROM via Odin that uses the new bootloader?

Phone: Galaxy S i9505

Country: The Netherlands

Carrier: Tele 2
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
If u had new bootloader with OmegaV21 you cant come back to one older bootloader.

- Reboot in Recovery

- Wipe all (factory reset, data, system, cache, dalvik cache)

- Reboot in DOWNLOAD MODE

- Open Odin in ur pc

- Unrar and flash this FILE

- Wait till the process finish :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeytC13:
That's the problem, I have that file and it won't flash it. It stops on aboot.mbn.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
You have to unzip and use this .PIT file and flashing it by ODIN with the firmware
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeytC13:
Still does not work. Have tried Odin 3.07 and 1.85. Whenever I add the .tar to 3.07 it gets stuck on "Leave CS...". If I flash it it gets stuck on aboot.mbn. Same goes for 1.85 but this doesn't give me the Leave CS message. Afaik you only need to have AutoReboot ticked on right?

Why u didnt start ur thread telling this about DOWNLOAD MODE? You will have to get it to repair in one service center :(
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeytC13:
Think I'm better off taking it to a service center or just dropping my phone so it's broken and call up insurance? KNOX is 0x1 so I don't know if they'll repair it at a service center or are able to.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joku1981:
In some countries they dont care about Knox 0x1, u will have to be informed about :)
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LeytC13:
Mmkay I'll go bring it by a service center tomorrow then. Hope they can fix it even though I'm on a new bootloader :\
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Joery1983:
If you have the new Bootloader you'll have to flash Samsung latest 4.4.2 firmware using odin 3.09. If you want I can provide you a download link on pm

The link you provided is MKF and yes this is the last firmware release for Holland but it still uses the 4.3 Bootloader since its 4.3 firmware. That's the reason it gets stuck during flashing.

[General Topics] hafridi:
I have an application that is about personal finance. I wanted users to be able to use an online service to add and remove data from a specific website. The question that arises is that I have two ways of syncing the data. They are listed below:

1.) Allow people to sync their data online that whenever they add or remove or do anything with their SQLite database, it syncs right that very second. This is slower since the app has to send data online and sync it each time a change is made.

2.) Allow people to Add and Remove Transactions but a manual sync button is pressed to sync data online. Simpler but does a batch sync rather than only doing it once. The only issue is that when a person doesn't press the button the data is not synced.

Each of those have pros and cons but the idea remains the same, being able to sync data to cloud storage and the ability to add transactions from the website. What do you think?
[General Topics] kapuscianyglab:
Application looks very nice but I don't need personal finance application. Maybe someone to download?
[General Topics] hafridi:
But in your opinion, would you think a person would like the sync button to sync all the transactions all at once or an automatic sync that does it right after a transaction
[General Topics] hafridi:
Anyone? All I need is your opinion?
[General Topics] emblazonpunk:
only sync data when the sync button is pressed..

I've got the feeling that it's the real answer, you know the pro & cons..
[General Topics] hafridi:
So you say that sync it only when the user selects to sync it. :) Thats another vote for sync when user calls it.
[General Topics] BigWaxx:
Best leave it to the user's choice. It's common sense.
[General Topics] Irwenzhao:
I recommend u have both.

1) not every second, but let the user set the interval between syncs.

2) if the user wants to sync before the time is up, the user can easily sync using the button.

Smack that Thanks button if I helped!

KitKat came in on my OmniROM, running on my Note 2.

Sent from a small country called Singapore.

P.S. Time for school, not much time for XDA :(
[General Topics] davidtc:
app's auto sync function sounds like autosave in word.

better leave an option to user
