This might be an useless exercise, however here is the gps.conf file from CM.

http://s.go.ro/8kjx2

There is no problem with gps in CM - I get TTFF under 1 minute and with 10-11 sattelites the precision is at 3-4 meters.

Maybe this helps :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] doenen:
I also noticed worse GPS on 4.3. In omnirom I was under the impression that it was a lot better, just like in 4.1.2. Battery life, especially when using the phone, is the only and the biggest issue for me on Omni, especially now that the sound issue seems to be fixed (THANKS)!! I have noticed that on 4.1.2 the cores stay offline a lot (!!!) longer when using the phone. This may be the reason for better battery life? Is it possible to apply a more aggressive sleep governor to the Omni kernel?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Isocadia:
So, thing I noticed, I had a SOD every night, last night, I put the phone in airplane mode ( usually leave it hooked with 4g and wifi enabled ) and no SOD. The one time I didn't get a SOD was when I woke up without a notification from facebook/whatsapp. It seems that during long sleep recieving those kind of notifications triggers a SOD on my phone. Any thoughts?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Isocadia:
Fixed GPS somewhat, down to 30m accuracy, but was enough for me :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
Take a look at this, it will speed up your GPS.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.fastergps
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Isocadia:
Helped a bit more, down to 20m accuracy :)

I also noticed another thing, when using headphone buttons tot change track ( double tap ) with screen on, sometimes the first press is registeted as volume up and the second one as pause track. This is using the sony snd file, will test later tonight with Sony headset to see if it might be my headset.

If someone like to use "my" kernel from homebuild with official builds replace only boot.img and all files from /system/lib/module/

!!!

There is a bug in google play service that cause battery drain because phone can not enter deep sleep.

Workaround. clear data of this service after every reboot

!!!!¡!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sash89:
And if we install an old google play services?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NASSOOR:
It'll be auto-updated?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Dont have any problems with Google Play Services.. Perhaps it's because I have disabled its wakelocks in App Ops.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] walter79:
yes
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Can anybody tell me if the sound in recorded Videos is very low in this Rom?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
Microphone volume is low on every 4.3 kernel rom for me. In call, recording etc. It's extremely annoying :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
You might try this.. But backup first, I have not tried it myself. :)

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2783028
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Still low ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] walter79:
maybe it is fixed with my last kernel commit. check my git. Is the problem fixed with cm?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
No, i have this problem on Carbon Rom
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] walter79:
Can you flash latest cm11 boot.img and try if this fix the mic problem?

Do you have mic problems during call?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Dont have a Computer here atm.

Dont know about the mic in calls, but untill now nobody complained that my voice is to low :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] walter79:
seems to be a hardware problem. I have no problems with calling and mic
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Flashed stock Rom yesterday for testing and there everything is fine.

Going to flash omni and look what happens :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
I had (and still have) everybody complaining on every ROM since the 4.3 kernel. Could also be hardware related, but not sure though. Also rob you can flash a kernel directly from your device:

Extract the boot.img from the cm zip to and folder. Install the terminal emulator from the play store and run it. Run these commands:

$ su (grant su permission, duh)
# cd /path/to/boot.img
# dd if=boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/Kernel

Reboot and you should have the new kernel ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] HenkeZan:
Add me to list(?) of users experiencing mic issues. Atleast I think so based on number of times I've heard the one I'm talking to complaining about not hearing me. Also verified by my SO stating that volume of my voice is low.

/HenkeZan
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
Flashed latest omnirom today and took a Video and the recorded sound was very low, like in carbon Rom. On stock Rom the problem isnt there

[MENTION=4617455]paxy97[/MENTION] kernel flashing through terminal worked ? thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Perhaps this issue was fixes with the new firmware's kernel sources?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
That one refused to set up on my XV, tried various methods. I either got status 7 error or flashing auto-aborted from other reasons. WhiteNeo :good: kindly send me his private homebuild. I extracted the boot.img from his zip file, and from then on everything went smooth.

When I previously read the description here, I got the impression of more an experimental situation. Therefore I installed it more from an experimental point of view. Omnirom is beyond that, it is a keeper. As well what I didn't know KK is actually a real leap forward.

I personally prefer a light colour user interface (much better readability under bright sunlight), but lucky for me things are not pitch black like in some other ROMs. Launcher3 is neat simple launcher with low memory foot-print, but the icons should be shrunk to abt 80 % size.

It is the best upgrade I did to my phone. I am wondering now why people bother with 4.3 at all. May be the description should have some screen shots and instructions should be re-written. Sometimes Germany is not good with marketing :laugh:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] walter79:
Uploading new homebuild.

Check my kernel git. Some updates there.

Can t fix bluetooth yet. Seems to be a bluedroid problem. Omnirom use a older one.

Tried to use the cm-11 one but no luck.

Edit:

With cm-11 boot.img Offline charging works with animation. = Omnirom has a boot.img problem. Will try to fix it
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Has someone ported Superstamina to KK?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
No and I don't think it will ever be ported, except if sony releases a stock kitkat firmware
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
It might take not too long anymore. 4.3 is a failure.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheEdgeOfRage:
I doubt that Sony will update. I mean our devices are already two years old and that's about the time when they drop support :/. Luckily this doesn't apply for CM.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I don't believe they will give KK to the XV, even if it run 10x better with KK than with 4.3. But to other devices, and porting from there might be allright.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] MESA:
Hello. Using official OmniRom and for me DSPManager is not working at all in headset mode. Any idea how to fix? :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sash89:
yep me too here...not working at all
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Random Thoughts

Being aware that not all features are Omnirom features but KK features:

- The Downlads UI apk is not needed with the Documents app, since the later provides an interface for the Downloads

- Documents does not present previews of all images, many do just show a general icon. I am using Qucikpic however, and deleted the Gallery app. Otherwise it is certainly the better way having one unified user interface for all user documents / files.

- The included Launcher3 should have a short vibration pulse for accepted actions. Also icons sizes can be reduced.

- Separate GPS on/off toggle

- Traffic monitor in/out differentiation not needed, just a simple total

- Navigation bar buttons and layout needs Power button with sleep on short press and power menu on long press

- Menu button needs "Expand Notification Bar"

- Quick launch short-cut could have 5 buttons

- Superstamina

For me Omnirom runs more stabil than other ROMs which claim to be stabil.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] 87Fra87:
GPS don't fix why?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
GPS needs 5 seconds to get my location. So whats wrong?

Using 4.4.4 banks gapps minimal and even network location without GPS is working and no drain from Google play services :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Alx31:
Some device could have issue while others doesn't have it, with exactly same rom/steps of flash... Will depends serial number usually.

E.g. As my xperia P has serious bug with autorotation with all aosp roms and others not...

Maybe logcat could help

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Right after boot-up

Just a few items removed + Android Tuner installed, but otherwise untouched Omnirom. ART enabled.

Great job, it runs around or below 4.12 system footprint :good: but with loads of better features, and far better memory management. :good:

anyone know where I can find a package with the apps and themes from Sony for Omn
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I'd like to see the following on Omnirom

- Sony Launcher (it is one of the best small launchers with smallish memory footprint)

- Sony Keyboard (one of the best if not the best OEM keyboard)

- Superstamina (I believe it can help besides of manually muting wakelooks)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] alexbo:
I agree on the Sony Keyboard. There are some ports around XDA, but they're simply not as good as the original one. It would make Omni so much cooler.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] rob rich:
I have also used the Sony keyboard (with emoji) on omni and carbon a long time without any issues. Idk from which thread i had the apk, but it worked as good as the original one (only on dalvik). I have the apk if you want
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] alexbo:
I also had some apk's from threads I can't remember now either, but if you have the apk to pass over I would appreciate it. I could give it a try, maybe its better than the one I used.

Thanks a lot!!!

:laugh:

:fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Thanks for the offer, but I need it working for ART.

I have settled for WhiteNeo's Homebuild Omni. It is polished and works well for me. Not that the included launcher and keyboards are so bad, but those from Sony are better. Moreover, I feel with it Omni get's a touch of Sony. That may help people feeling more home, and some more people may bite.

Another issue is the unlocking bootloader thingy.

I think many more would try Omnirom if unlocking the BL was not needed. Doomlord mentioned once there is a way around, but I don't know details.

Get more Omni on the V!

I don't know if this is walter79's work, but there are newer nightlies here

Reboots

I like very much Omnirom, byu I have some reboots when there is weak or no mobile signal availble ( at my work) . Any solution to this?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
I have no clue what could be the relationship in between reboots and a weak signal.

I'd try installing it again. If there is one thing I can say: this one is stabil for me.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] kudo77:
As I told, It happens only at my work with bad coverege.

I tryied a clean instal of CM11 and have the same issue, strange...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] stirlitz99:
I'm on 0802 build and BT pairing is still a problem (just read back and saw that we had this even in July). Anyone on a newer version can confirm if it's fixed or not?

http://d-h.st/users/walter79/?fld_id=35528#files

Which version/update should i download? Which one is the most stable?

Is this ROM stable and battery efficient overall?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
OmniROM is as stable as a rock. :good:

Using my own homebuilt version with O3 flags. No issues for several months. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Which version is that (out of those in the link i posted before)...is it the latest nightly version or the stable version? I'm kinda confused here because I don't know which of all these files i should download :eek:

EDIT: I found these too now http://dl.omnirom.org/tsubasa/

Should I download the latest one (from today)? o.O

Are there only nightly versions available or are there some stable ones too? are the nigtlies stable too? And will I have to update every night and flash the ROMs or is there some OTA updater installed in the ROM?

Sorry for so much questions xD
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I have not published my homebuild (yet), so get the latest nightly from the link you mentioned.

There are no "stable versions", but the nightlies are indeed stable. :good:

Only bug is that bluetooth devices have to be paired again after a reboot. :)

Also, I suggest keeping track of the official Omni changelog (check OP for a link) to see if anything important has changed and update the rom only in that case, not every day. ^^

My version is already two weeks old, but no extremely important changes have been made yet, so I'll keep it for some more time. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Thanks :) just 2 more questions:

1) how is the battery life (does it drain much battery when the screen is off...and is there a google services drain bug)?

2) when i update do i need to download and flash the rom using recovery or is there some OTA updater app?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
1) I manage to get a standby battery usage of 0.5% per hour, so battery life is really good. ;)

2) There is indeed an updater app (Open Delta) but for me it did never show any updates, so I used the recovery method.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
So when I wanna update, I just download the rom to sd card and install it using recovery? Will I lose apps and data by updating like that?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] stirlitz99:
I can confirm... on standby the best I got was 0.13% per hour during the night (greenified, android tuned...). My lockscreen is a ***** (that's the one that messes things, but I like the stock Xperia lockscreen :/ ), so it's about 0.3-0.4% per hour in deepsleep.

I do the upgrade in recovery wiping only cache and dalvik... Did 3 upgrades this way and had no problem.

The Omni is rock solid, only problem is with BT... hopefully they solve it.

I really like Carbon's features, but it simply sucks energy a big way... Tried AOKP KK, it does too. AOKP 4.3 was pretty good on battery, so their KK is a bit of a disappointment..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sash89:
Paranoid is a rock solid too with battery duration like omnirom!so it is even better
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
IMO OmniRom is better than PA...I had so many force closes, freezes and reboots on PA...like 10 im a week. It was pretty good on battery but I think that OmniRom wins there too
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sash89:
U did a fres install?i am on pa from3 weeks and no single reboot and no fc at all!so i think pa is better because is more customizable and battery is like omni!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Yeah I did a fresh install...perhaps I had problems because of custom themes or something. I'm not saying PA is bad, I just like Omni a bit better for now :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sash89:
Have u used xposed modules o pa?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
This is not the place to discuss whether some custom roms are better than others or not. Just mentioning. :)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Hey guys, I have a few questions.

1) I just updated my ROM to the latest nightly using in-built OpenDelta updater (this is my first update since I'm using this ROM for 2 days only) and some of my apps like YouTube, Google Maps and Google Keep (and perhaps some others but I haven't noticed) got deleted. Does anyone know why this happened and how to prevent it? And it also enabled the apps which I've disabled previously?!

2) I think the updater downloaded the whole ROM (200+ mb size file on my SD card)...will it do it every time keep filling my memory up or just the first time?

3) Is the update zip/rom which I mentioned earlier also a backup of my system and apps or just a base for updates?

4) Is it better to update using in-built OpenDelta updater or using CyanDelta Updater from the playstore?

5) my calendar icon changed and the option to sync calendar is not present anymore under google sync options?!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] doenen:
after some days of intense usage i can say the say the sound bug occured only very rarely. with the govenor set to interactive i didnt experience it once in a few hours of listening to music. battery life is decent, i would say a little less than debloated 4.1.2 which i was using before that.

you do have a lot of questions. as mentioned to you before we recommend checking for the changelogs and not updating to every new nightly. major changes may happen only every 2 weeks, especially for our device. on the other hand, nightly are not at all required to be stable, they may not even boot if something goes really wrong. thus i wouldnt use any "updater app", read the changelogs regularly and, if new features or bugs are fixed, update manually by CWM. This also answers your 1) question. We cant tell you why some apps were deleted, but it will always enable and/or reinstall the standard system apps you disabled before. 2) it will always download a 200mb zip. 3) im not sure what you mean but the zip you download is never a backup of your data. backups are made through CWM or TWRP. please google and read by yourself. it is recommended to know what your doing at least with CWM or TWRP when you start using custom roms. 4) i told you in the first part. 5) lol
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] MESA:
