[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
I tested the notification light using Light Flow Control:Lite version and these are the results:

The color I requested:::The color that lit up

Cyan:::Looks like green

Deep orange:::Lights up all LEDs

Gold:::Lights up all LEDs

Indigo:::Magenta

Lilac:::Lights up all LEDs, but differently

Lime:::Lights up all LEDs

Magenta:::Magenta

Orange:::Lights up all LEDs

Pink:::Magenta

Purple:::Magenta

Red:::Red

Skyblue:::Green

turquoise:::Green

white:::Lights up all LEDs

yellow:::Lights up all LEDs

Couldn't get orange this time, but I remember it worked when I brought my Xperia E in Sept 2013.

Light Flow Control:Lite says it supports the Illumination Bar in our Xperias but I tried, it didn't work.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
All leds lighting up is a manufacturing defect I guess ...

We should make Sony recall all xperia E's...lol

Even in whatsapp you can choose led color .....same results
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
Yeah, make em recall all Xperia E's and give us the new Xperia E1s. hehe :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
why stop at E1 why no Z?

if the case says we got mentally affected by jelly bean xperia E ....we may force them ...

they may give if their reputation is on the line Lol.....Or we will be killed one by one by sony
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
DEVs SEMCILLUMINATION files from Xperia SP and Xperia L for you to modify!!!!

I just got the SemcIllumination files from Xperia SP & L, and have uploaded them.

If any DEV can give some of his/her time to this, maybe we Xperia E users can also enjoy the Illumination Bar like other Xperias.

I found that when using the Lockscreen of Z1 in my Xperia E, the Illumination bar lit up as long as the screen was ON.

I have also uploaded the same lockscreen APK for the DEVs. Please maybe if you look into it, our phone's will become cooler!!!!!

And still looking for the company who developed Android for Xperia Es???

Thanks in advance
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
that company is still unknown....its not a seperate company per se

just not the same people who make all xperia software...i think they made the useless firefox os too....
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NeoTrix:
Illumination bar is also woken on a Facebook message and when charger is plugged in. :) might help.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
!!!BUMP!!!

BUMP!!!

Any DEV this net, Any DEV this net this a request for port!!!

Come on guys I am sure if you give a little time to this maybe, we'll be able to control the damn BAR.

Atleast tell us what the obstructions are.??????
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
see themes section and pm all major devs in that section
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NeoTrix:
Ask someone from the old phones section,I mean

Xperia U/Arc/Sola,etc. Since the new illumination bar controllers are based on APIs released by sony itself.

The old devices didn't have any of this stuff I guess,they had to build stuff from scratch.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
[MENTION=5260970]NeoTrix[/MENTION] yes, but app which work on those does not work on E....will they be able to?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NeoTrix:
Maybe,maybe not.

But it's worth a shot. ;)
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] UltraGamerHD:
I have asked [MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION] to take a look at it for Xperia E (He is the creator of illumination bar notification). He said he couldn't do it because Sony haven't releases the illumination bar API for XE. I gave him the App anyway (ArimaIllumination.apk) he said he would look into it on the weekend.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
Thanks

Thank you so much.

Sorry I disappeared after the BUMP post but I had no internet for like 2 days(stupid BSNL!!!).

Anyways I don't think the DEVs in theme-ing section would help me cuz the ILLUMINATION BAR is somewhat a hardware issue.

I am going to PM rundgong to ask him what files does he need for the BAR to customize.

BTW how did Termin work out for ya???????
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
termin V2 is very nice!
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
Looking at that file, it seems it should work, but since it does not, there must be something else wrong.

There is probably a reason why Sony did not include Xperia E as one of the supported devices.

Did anyone try my app and choosing the notification LED instead of the illumination bar?

Has anyone been able to control the leds from a root shell?

On Xperia U you can do like this to light one of the leds:

"echo 255 > /sys/class/leds/l-key-blue/brightness"

If something like that works on E, I can probably get it to work.

On S/P/U/SP something similar works, but I didn't get that working on Xperia J, so it appears to differ from device to device
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Grimlock007:
both app not compitable in playstore
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
I have already tried sideloading both the apps and they don't work.

I'll download them again today!!!

Isn't it possible to, decompile a system APP which controls the BAR when the APP is activated, to know what triggers the BAR?????

I have already uploaded the lockscreen APP, and in this post I have uploaded the album, walkman and the phone APP.[Its around 14 MBs].

About the "root shell" thing if this for the terminal, if you give me the codes I'll experiment on it!!!

Thanks for support!!! :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
There are three different settings for the notification led ( under general settings). None of them work?

I can't help with the terminal, since I don't have a device. That's why I asked if this information was already known.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
Update, tried using terminal....

I tried the above mentioned method you using a terminal emulator, it didn't work i have attached screenshots.

The second screenshot has the list of folders inside sys/class/leds

Waiting for an early reply.....
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
You have split the command into two commands. It should be only one command including the '>' symbol
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
Yup I tried that just after sent the message and I can control the Notification led, and the button backlight, but not the Illumination bar. I tried all variations like

what code i used:::What output I got

echo 255>sys/class/leds/blue:::Notification blue

echo 255>sys/class/leds/lm3533-light-backlight:::backlight lights up

echo 255>sys/class/leds/lm3533-light-button:::same as above

echo 255>sys/class/leds/lm3533-light-sns:::nothing

echo 255>sys/class/leds/red:::Notification is red color

echo 255>sys/class/leds/keyboard-backlight:::nothing

echo 255>sys/class/leds/green:::notification light is green

Is there any thing else I should try???
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
If none of those work I dont know what to do.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] RSXtm:
I think that we can't use our led bar for notifications............. our Xperia E doesn't have SemcIllumination.apk but Arimaillumination.apk , and it's the only Sony device to have this thing :(
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
Thread closed now. See attachment for more clarification.

I queried Sony and pestered them until they gave me a clear cut reply and straight out one day they say:

1.No software updates available yet.

2.And forget the damn Illumination Bar.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] RSXtm:
At least Sony didn't lie..... :D
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
It works, finally

I DID IT, I GOT CONTROL OF THE ILLUMINATION BAR[only blue color lit up, but yes it works]

#dances around and looks stupid hehe :p

[MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION]

[MENTION=5688208]Grimlock007[/MENTION]

I typed in --- echo 255>sys/class/leds/lm3533-light-sns/rgb_brightness

and the blue light on the BAR came to life.

----------------v----------------

echo 0>sys/class/leds/lm3533-light-sns/rgb_brightness ----> Doesn't shut off the Illumination Bar

echo 1>sys/class/leds/lm3533-light-sns/rgb_brightness -----> Doesn't make the Illumination Bar blink

----------------v----------------

Now all rundgong needs to do is update his app with code and it will surely work on anyXperia E.

How I discovered it

- well once [MENTION=5395179]UltraGamerHD[/MENTION] told me it has to do with bootrec file so I was looking around the github site on XE sources and I navigated to this-https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_device_sony_nanhu/blob/jellybean/recovery/bootrec-device

and from line 7, I typed the code in terminal Emulator, so thank you UltraGamerHD, thank you rundgong.

I have only mentioned a few people in this reply cuz I didn't want DEVs to think I am being a noob.

Anyways [MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION] can you apply this to your Illumination Bar app, if any more testing of codes is needed please feel free to PM me, or reply here!!!

Thanks
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NeoTrix:
OMG^

This is huge breakthrough if it goes out well.

This may be a noob-y question.

Will the result be same with ICS?

EDIT: It says Any Xperia E. Delete,delete. :P

Thanks a lot.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] anurox2:
Ok will remove any Xperia E.

What i think it depends on the kernel, and cuz the Zues kernel lights up only blue light during recovery, we only get blue light through codes.

Why don't you give it a shot?? And make note of the Illumination bar color in recovery and when you run it through the terminal emulator.

I daresay the codes might also be same on all available firmwares, but if it is different please test a few different files.

[MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION] still hasn't acknowledged it yet, I mentioned him in the last post, he hasn't replied yet, oh well atleast we can control the Illumination bar, a small breakthrough for me, a giant leap for all Xperia E users. hehe sorry a bit over enthusiastic.

Edit-a picture

NOTE---> I will not be available till 30th May, I have my semester exams starting in a few days, so please coordinate and test a few things, I think customization can be done!!!!
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
I think you need to describe it in a little more detail.

Are you not able to turn off the light?

More than one color would be nice also. Try giving it a bigger value than 255, like 50000, and see if that gives you any color
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
You want more than one color? Check this out: https://github.com/hsr0/android_device_sony_nanhu_ds/blob/cm10/recovery/bootrec-device

The part you guys would think is cool:

export BOOTREC_LED_GREEN="255000"
export BOOTREC_LED_BLUE="255"
export BOOTREC_LED_ORANGE="050050050"

I think echoing a value of 0 should turn off the light. Can't check, I'm on CM10.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] RuNG:
All values works...and giving value 0 it turned off tested now...

EDIT : [MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION] here the tested colors
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
Good, I think I can work with this :)

One more question, I assume you need root to set the color of the led?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] UltraGamerHD:
Yes you need root.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NeoTrix:
What about ics?

Anyone on it can test this?

I'm on cm10 as of now[sudden craving for the pure aosp ui :P]

Someone can test this?
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] The_Overthinker:
WORKS

The different colours work on ics.

But on setting the value to 0, it doesn't turn the light off.
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] UltraGamerHD:
If [MENTION=1305989]rung[/MENTION]dong Can't Do This use Tasker!
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] rundgong:
Give this a try.

After you install it you may need to select the proper device but I hope it auto detects.

When it is installed you should be able to try it with my other app.

Let me know if works at all, if the colors are ok, if fading works and if it turns off properly
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] UltraGamerHD:
[MENTION=4687087]rundgong[/MENTION]

Hey I installed IlluminationReciever.apk you posted. It auto detected Xperia E. So I download Illumination Bar Notification App from your site and I Selected All devices, Tried Cyan Colour On Illumination Bar it didn't work.

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NSDCars5:
16777215 and 4294967295 show white.

4278190335 shows dark blue (as in, somewhat like this color code: #0000aa).

Ok, that is weird. If the command works in the terminal I think it should work in the app also. It is basically the same thing
[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] NeoTrix:
I couldn't even get illumination receiver opening.

Always get a blank screen after I accept su permissions

is it possible to get udisco app work on our xperia E

Probably not, without 3 separate leds that app will not be very useful

Oh.

Can we get the lights to blink on walkman?[like xperia sp?]

Turn Illumination Bar OFF manually.

I can't turn off the Illumination bar through the "echo 0" command on CM11, Stock JB(.47,.23,.33).|

Some users said they were able to do it could someone tell me how?

AFAIK, root access does not prevent OTA update success, but if you have a custom recovery installed, OTA update will fail.

[Moto X Q&A] akhenax:
I have rooted my phone successfully, and in the beginning apps that required root access would check for root, and request su access, but now that doesn't happen.

1. Anyone know what happened, and how do I get applications to request root access again?

2. How do I update the SuperSU binary, when it asks?

Rooted using SlapMyMoto, on Android 4.4 Stock.
[Moto X Q&A] StATicxTW0T:
Make sure you have the latest supersu from the play store but when it asks you to update the SU binary, it should show two options, normal and twrp, since i'm assuming you're locked (plus it's just easier), choose normal. Also, i'm not sure what the process is, but you might need to re-run whatever it is that you use to root (i'm unlocked so i'm not familiar with the process) because it sounds like you don't have system mounted as rw. If this is the result of an OTA, because people are losing rw from taking the verizon OTA, you might be out of luck until a new method is found.

-edit- another fix might be to re flash supersu if you have safestrap installed, and just clarification, it will not ask for root for the same app twice unless you tell it to ask again next prompt.
[Moto X Q&A] akhenax:
Thanks for the reply. I took the OTA to 4.4 from 4.2, and I was still rooted. Something happened with SuperSU, and now the phone is behaving as if it is not rooted, or it's half rooted (if that makes sense).

MyBackupPro would always ask for root access, and then SuperSU would grant it automatically. Now this doesn't happen. Also, I'm trying to use Helium backup as well, and when it tries to ask for root access, it fails. Any app that usually requests root access doesn't even ask.

Thanks.
[Moto X Q&A] StATicxTW0T:
I wouldn't take my word for it, but i remember reading about a downgrade then upgrade process where you would downgrade to 4.2.2 post cam then root then upgrade again, it might help, no guarantee's though.
[Moto X Q&A] akhenax:
I always thank replies whether it helps or not.

I am trying to retrace the steps I did to root, but not the entire process. Hope to save time from having to redo everything again.
[Moto X Q&A] akhenax:
I fixed it.

I did the following steps (not sure if this did anything but...):

uninstall SuperSU

adb reboot bootloader

fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

fastboot flash motoboot motoboot.img

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

fastboot reboot

adb push su /data/local/tmp/su

adb push install.sh /data/local/tmp/install.sh

adb push rec.sh /data/local/tmp/rec.sh

adb push install-recovery.sh /data/local/tmp/install-recovery.sh

adb push setup.sh /data/local/tmp/setup.sh

adb reboot

adb shell

echo "/data/local/tmp/rec.sh" > /sys/kernel/uevent_helper

<-- THIS FAILS, as expected. It worked when I first rooted the device, but doesn't work any longer, but this is OK.

it returns: /system/bin/sh: can't create /sys/kernel/uevent_helper: Permission denied

Once again, this is OK.

Install SuperSU

DO NOT OPEN IT. JUST INSTALL IT.

Apps now request root permission.

adb shell getprop ro.boot.write_protect

returns a value of:1 which means my bootloader is locked write protection is enabled, but I still have proper root access.

Hope this helps the next guy.
[Moto X Q&A] tcollum:
This actually means that write protection is enabled.
[Moto X Q&A] nhizzat:
Did you try to reboot into"recovery" to set write protection off?
