Yes I know about the above I was who reported it but that was a different ROM (CM11) so making sure this still works ok with PA is important. If others are fine on speakerphone then great news and hopefully just a flash issue for Cornhelius.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
yes echos are heard in call only when loudspeakers on

yes the bug you reported is causing this and nexus prime said he will release b13 with a fix for this :good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
OK..so I wait for the fix..i use the phone more for calls and loudspeaker is a necessity ;) thanks
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
hmm b13 is test build so stay in b12 ;)
[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
Yes i've revert on build 12..but i test it to give a feedback to neXus [emoji6]
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
:good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
I saw the problem, but i have seen [MENTION=5579865]MrSteve555[/MENTION] tree and fix has not been committed to his cm11 branch yet. I updated from his latest commits, so until his cm11 is fixed, i think u guys have to wait too.

Otherwise, if cm11 has it fixed, then just pull the snd msm file from it and push it in this. All other config flags and files are already matching with steves tree.

I am working on a separate project for u guys, so i wud appreciate if someone finds the fix and provides a flashable patch here. I will add it to OP as well alongside B#13 link.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
He sent me a test version of CM11 with it fixed he hasnt published the link himself for this version. If its just the snd_soc_msm_2x ill make a flashable zip in a bit.

Here's the speakerphone fix.

Can someone just double check it for me and don't forget to do a nandroid backup before flashing in case of issues.

[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
This is only for build#13?? If it's even for #12 i'll test it now
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Its just for Build 13 which includes the newest mic fixes, the whole thing requires other files so this alone wont fix it.

---------- Post added at 04:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:50 PM ----------

Is it official PAC related? :D
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
[MENTION=4888117]Oblox[/MENTION]

did u even see what u shared?

i just checked and ur shared file is EXACT same as in B13.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Nope just took it from cm11 build steve sent me with the speaker fixed. Is the change in a different file then? Was/am at work so just quickly zipped and shared.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
Maybe some place else. Or maybe he has not shared the change yet, as github also has this file.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
This is his commit (found in UBL CM11 thread)

https://github.com/Ultrax5/android_...mmit/f492afcc0ff50895be45334e1e7ba96a44998953

So its a boardconfig change.

Everyone who has echo issues and is willing to test - paste this to system/etc/snd_soc_msm and set -rw -r -r permissions. I don't have any echo issues, so I need a kind tester :)

If it doesn't work, I'm out of ideas.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
it doesn't work, but this isnt aint big issue IMOto stop B13

and using 2nd mic ( flip the device) in calls when loudspeakers are on there is no echoes IMO

Thanks steve for trying to fix :good:
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
That's really odd that this is fixed in MrSteves CM11 but not here. I have no echoes and loudspeaker uses the correct mic now.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ParanoidNemo:
IMO that's a big problem..because even if you flip the phone the echoes remains..in any case thanks mrsteve to try to fix the problem
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
Could someone do the steps described below:

1.Call someone(even the operator's automatic service is fine ;))

2. Switch to loudspeaker

3. Take a logcat and post it here, I need to check something, and I don't have time to mess with reflashing PA(I'm on CM right now).
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
Logcat
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
Logcat says it uses dual mic for the loudspeaker call, but it should use "Line" device (single mic) for that.

It *seems* like [MENTION=4350492]neXus PRIME[/MENTION] compiled the ROM without the latest BoardConfig flag:

https://github.com/Ultrax5/android_...mmit/f492afcc0ff50895be45334e1e7ba96a44998953

But he merged all my changes into his trees recently, and that flag was there, so I'm not sure about that.

Btw, with a CM build compiled with that flag I only get echoes when I boost the speaker volume to the max.

[Xperia SP Android Development] ezwanmir:
every custom rom with dalvik runtime is work with xposed module! :o
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
Loudspeaker and 2nd mic are located too close to each other to make it usable.

And 1mic on loudspeaker is used for noise cancelling, so obviously the volume is low...
[Xperia SP Android Development] Dammer Martins:
build 13 have DSB and card recents style?

[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
lil confused when loudspeakers are on in call 1mic is used for noise cancelling :confused: in stock roms 1mic sound is good in call when loudspeakers are on
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
On normal call front mic is used as main mic, and the rear one is used for noise cancelling. However, on loudspeaker call, it switches to rear mic as the main mic, and uses front mic for noice cancelling. In our case that default behavior is pretty much unusable, because we have the speaker on the top of the device, near the mic.

Obviously it creates troubles, and the only solution is to switch to front mic - so we are sacrificing noice cancellation(only for loudspeaker calls, for normal calls it still works fine, but probably users will use the loudspeakers only in quiet environments, so noise cancelling isn't a must). As I said, idk if neXus used that boardconfig flag which allowed switching to the right mic.

And, for god's sake, that ROM isn't stock. The whole OS has whole different behaviors, so it's just uncomparable.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
I used all the flag. You can have a look. Maybe just need to replace with ur file.

help

Is it necessary to flash kernal after or before flashing rom and gapps,

As i m on custom atock based rom ,so i can flash direct from recovery

Do i need to flash kernel

If i do then what kernel i flash 207 or 205

Btw ur mega link for 207 is not working

"i like pa"
[Xperia SP Android Development] lvints:
I flash the kernel before installing the rom and I use DooMKernel (v13)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Sam spancer:
Hey if really pa rom is a lot perfect den can u send me kernel file bcoz mega link is nt working

N if i m nt wrong i js hv to flash kernel den rom den gapps

Also in pa forum it says rear mice wont work,dont u think its kindaa lil important having rear mice during loudspeaker
[Xperia SP Android Development] jangid:
You can also flash the williamson kernel v5 they will also work as pa is based on. 207 kernel or unzip the rom and you will get boot.img file you can also flash that file and continue with the process
[Xperia SP Android Development] Sam spancer:
Willian kernel gives me boot loop
[Xperia SP Android Development] Gamm86:
V5.1 is causing a bootloop. V5 should be fine.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ironshadow2:
Guys, is their a kernel that better than stock kernel?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Gamm86:
I've used Doomlord v13 for a long time when I was on this ROM.

Seemed to work great!
[Xperia SP Android Development] jangid:
i always use williamson kernel v5 for best experience ... but i recommend if you want best battery life use stock .207 kernel i guess they are already present in pa12 build

happy to help :D
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
PAC is official now. A huge burden off my shoulders for a few weeks. Now lets make PA rock again... !

I will check whether card recent and dynamic bars are available via a hack or not. If yes, then i'll give it a try tonight.

why did u removed apps2sd feature buddy ???
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:

orrr.... should I blame it on MrSteve555???

tough one.....................................................

Maybe i felt like removing it....

Still not sure... I'll pass. Next Question.:p
[Xperia SP Android Development] Gamm86:

If I remember correctly it was no longer working properly due to some changes in KK.
[Xperia SP Android Development] pravin hulgeri:

I have often a problem with screen not responsive to tapping .

I just uninstall AOSB Rom, It had the exact same problem

Thanks:good:

All circumstances, the tapping is hit and not responded often.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Fat_boy555:
It works fine for me so I suggest a clean wipe and reinstall. Backup apps using titanium backup and restore after clean install. Btw do u use any tweaks? Do u have this problem on stock?
[Xperia SP Android Development] niruzz:
I used to have exact same problem with the first stock firmware but it was gone after the update. Now it come back after flashing custom roms.

Never tweak

Always wipe properly.

I really have to go back to a stable rom, can you advice me the best Stock Jelly bean 4.1.2?

I dont like .205 because it is getting slower as apps become more and more huge.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Gamm86:
All stock Sony ROMs have issues, so I can't really answer your question.
[Xperia SP Android Development] akimester:
as far as i remember 12.0.A.1.257 is the best. (for me)
[Xperia SP Android Development] ironshadow2:
thnx,but how is the battery on william kernel compared to stock kernel? how much screen time on u get on wiliam kernel?
[Xperia SP Android Development] jangid:
I never worried about battery on cm rom based on stock kernel... I more into stability... you can use hit n trial method
[Xperia SP Android Development] eSu.Matix:
Since it's based on the stock kernel I suppose it doesn't support init.d? :silly:
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
It supports init.d, because it has modified ramdisk.
[Xperia SP Android Development] eSu.Matix:
This ROM is SO ****ING GUCCI!

Great job mate!

P.S.: Is it me, or this more doesn't support exFat? The kernel does, cause both recoveries read my SD Card, but I had to format it to Fat32 in order to work with this ROM.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Sam spancer:
Best........ I tell u a great rom for xperia sp,,,,,, js do master rom v 4 white,,,,,, also after install it is stock based custom rom having a good freatures not like pa bt enough for perfect guys,, works like a charm n sound awesome also system ui is z2, some z3 features r ported bt it gonna get a huge update soon...

Im planning to make an rom with an awesome kernel as moto x

Sony Xperia SP is slow because the Kernel, we need build one as moto x

any idea ?
[Xperia SP Android Development] ironshadow2:
yea, this is our phone's problem, power phone with bad kernel, I think u should ask pec0ra too.
[Xperia SP Android Development] samuk190:
its hard make an kernel for this phone.

The moto X kernel is Awesome thats because Moto X with same specs as xperia sp is 200% more faster than xperira sp with cyanogenmod

[MENTION=4466123]pec0ra[/MENTION] What u think ? make an good kernel for this phone ?

thats we need.. doomlord kernel and william kernel is only kernel modifications of sony kernel

we need an true new kernel thats make the phone runs smooth eveen with heavy usage.

Moto X uses Krait 300, Xperia SP uses Krait 200... i don't know if this change something.

there are two version of this chipset, one with Krait 200 and one with krait 300 ! And the reference is MSM8960DT (Moto X), not just MSM8960T (Xperia SP) ;)

And i think there is an error in your site :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] ironshadow2:
Where is your source cuz moto x have Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro MSM8960 and our xperia sp have the same processor but with t at the the end of it(Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro MSM8960T)
[Xperia SP Android Development] igor_anta:
This all barely belongs in General Discussion as a separate thread, and it definitely doesn't belong here.

And as for the two phones having the same processing power, well you need to do a bit more reading my friend, cause they're not even close.
[Xperia SP Android Development] ironshadow2:
ok, where did u read that?
[Xperia SP Android Development] francescohtc:
motorola moto x have a MSM8960DT krait 300 based with quadcore adreno 320, Xperia SP have a MSM8960T is Krait (old) Based with standard Adreno 320, same base but different features and different drivers.

This here will get much better with time now that PAC is completely on auto. I am going to work with steve in fixing stuff and optimizations. Specially, battery savings and touch optimizations.

Not that its something specific, but Touch quality on Xperia SP on ALL ROMs is pretty pathetic compared to other phones. this is the largest area of improvement I see.

For now just enjoy B#13 and leave comments how it feels.

There is no mention in changelog, so I don't think so. Generally in PA new feature are added by official developer in open tree only when the stable release came out.

No need, it is included in zip.

Hi guys!

New member to SP forums here. I am yet to unlock the bootloader so trying this awesome ROM with LBL. I just installed latest build and it seems to be awesome indeed. The only problem I see right now is that the Peformance settings menu is absent even if Developer mode is turned on.

What is your prefered CPU limits and governor for LBL? I am on stock 207 kernel.

EDIT: I set CPU (384-1.4GHz) and noop governor. I am seeing degraded touch response, i.e. some times I have to touch buttons twice or three, sometimes more times, in order to get the click registered. I read that this seems to be a common SP problem with ROMs. Any workaround? I see CPU speed and governor might play some role into this.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Reddemons15:
Hi guys, i'm using another ROM and now i want to try this rom and i have some questions: do i have to wipe data (factory reset) and with the #13 build, i have to install .207 kernel? is that right?

thanks and sorry for my bad english :D
[Xperia SP Android Development] Fat_boy555:
Wrong place to ask.

But yes. Backup over titanium backup or similar apps
[Xperia SP Android Development] shofiul1994:
207 kernel in the zip and yea u have to do a factory reset, i would recommend it when u r coming from a diff rom

---------- Post added at 10:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

leave the cpu and governor as it was cause thats the best setting for the phone..... noop governor does tend to be laggier than deadline or row
[Xperia SP Android Development] enli:
Definitely! I figured out the same thing. I am using 1.2GHz max CPU and deadline and everything seems to be snappy.

Can anybody else confirm if the Performance menu is removed from the latest build #13? I could not find any relevant announcement from official PA.
[Xperia SP Android Development] shofiul1994:
build 13 is laggier than build 12. i loved #12 it was the smoothest rom. is it just for me?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
performance menu is removed but ?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Its not in its normal spot under legacy parts then?

If it is gone then search on xda for CPU Control, a nice material UI app that does the same thing.
[Xperia SP Android Development] M7mdA7md7sein:
The last update is Great :D and very smooth :D

But may I report that after flashing Build #13 I am facing Audio Imbalance in the headphones ?

The left speaker is louder than the right,,,

and Viper4Android was removed from my apps...

The speakers are normally working on another phone :)

Thank you :)

---------- Post added at 01:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:24 PM ----------

Also now I couldn't locate that option to control CPU underclocking stuff :D

It was under settings directly under "legacy parts", I am missing that "legacy parts" now !

I think those might be my problem during flashing ?

To check; what I did: was on #12, CWM: Format /System, Flash #13, Gapps then kernel 207.zip

I have LBL.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
I will see about the audio imbalance issue. If needed, will release a patch.

About legacyParts, its decided by paranoid android guys. And like i have said many times before, those guys dont listen much to others and make very strange decisions, and its ironic that they also lead others on the design front.
[Xperia SP Android Development] Oblox:
Not to mention removing the ability to maximise widgets on the lockscreen, why PA why?

I hope they make the recents available on PA legacy soon.
[Xperia SP Android Development] neXus PRIME:
You can port it if you want to. Just copy over the complete framework folder from a nexus 4 pa and i think it should work.

Might be some other files as well. not sure. Should work. .............yeah. should.
[Xperia SP Android Development] eSu.Matix:
Is that the reason why we don't have exFat support? I also wanted to ask if PAC supports exFat?
[Xperia SP Android Development] M7mdA7md7sein:
It is Ok :D

I thought it is my problem :D

and Viper may be was uninstalled as I put it as a system app

is it ok to install or will conflict with your sound fixes in the last build ?

UPDATE:

Restarted and Installed Viper4android, and I don't feel the same difference now, might be less or might be gone ! :D

Check it to be sure too :D

Thanks and sorry for disturbance :D
[Xperia SP Android Development] Nathan rd:
thank you saved my life :p
[Xperia SP Android Development] Jeik:

[Xperia SP Android Development] Kotth:
I'm on the Build 12 how I need to flash the 13?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Jeik:
I suggest a factory reset and then flash the ROM with PA nano gapps(google them)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Kotth:
OK is there the dynamics system bars?
[Xperia SP Android Development] Reddemons15:
can you explain why? because i'm going to install this rom :D why don't you use the gapps on the fist post? :p

Sorry for my bad english :)
[Xperia SP Android Development] Jeik:
Well,factory reset is to be sure that the ROM wont have bugs that only you will feel,and PA nano gapps weight 20 mb,while normal gapps weight arround 80 mb.Every Mb of free memory is worth.
[Xperia SP Android Development] MrSteve555:
The audio imbalance occurs only after a call('+1, issue confirmed, yes, I also have that" spam incoming). I fixed it in my CM repo, so neXus could merge it and fix the issue in the next builds. Meanwhile, you can use my instructions from my CM11 LBL thread.

I have one unique skill - everything I touch, breaks. :p Pretty nice stuff ;)
