When you were installing this ROM, did you flash the boot.img using flashtool and then installed the zip from recovery or you just installed without flashing boot.img?

EDIT: I tried reinstalling and now everything works :D something probably went wrong during the 1st installation.

Tnx for your help :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Will pm both of you a link. :good:

Waiting your reports. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Isocadia:
I'm also able to test the kernel :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
the kernel flashed just fine. working good so far.

using trickster mod app i set max cpu speed, interactive governor, sio scheduler and using option 2 of "multicore power saving". should i use MP-Decision?

anything in particular that i should look?

by the way, with your rom and now with the kernel i fell in love with Xperia V for the second time. it's like i've taken it for a boob job :cool:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
Did you flash it in recovery or with Flashtool ? I hesitate....
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
using TWRP recovery included in boot.img from the instructions. did a backup first though
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
Oki, thanks.

Let's do it then!

I just restarted in recovery, installed the zip, wipe (just to be sure, i prefer after each update):

-It booted.

-It optimised 90 apps (that's weird i thought i had less installed, please hurry I'm curious :o ).

-O wonderful it is doing it in Enlightened Green.

-Starting apps

-Weirdly showing desktop before the sim code, and it overlays without blurring the background. Tried to screenshot but that fixed the "problem"

OMG! It is even smoother than before! (just looked around)

-Was going to set read ahead to 256 but it is already set (great, thanks)

I wont change anything and just do the things i do all the time, and report any difference when i run into something.

All seems ok for now.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I suggest removing the two files "mpdecision" and "thermald" from system/bin, as they have been replaced with in-kernel solutions.. Should have added that to the installer script.

I will remove those in the upcoming version as well. :)

MPDecision is by default enabled. The one that you can enable with the switch in trickster is the closed-source binary from Qualcomm. This option should be gone if you remove the corresponding binary.

Great to hear. :good:

Make sure to keep an eye on your battery stats. If you see any improvements, report here please. :good:

The improvements should mostly concern screen-on battery life, but see for yourself. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
Ok deleting now
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
Yes, I'm fully charging now and will test tonight.

I rebooted, just to see, there was no weird sim code error anymore, boots at least as quick as before.

Ingress runs fine, heat production while running app and charging (2A) seems a bit more, but i need to try it in full sun and that will (hopefully) be able tomorrow.

Went into options and i see that i have one core offline and changing speed rapidly over the whole possible range on the other, that is new :)

OO and i see an unused cpu state and a slider that goes further than 1512!

Will try that later, after some thorough default setting testing :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Yeah. One overclocking freq is still there. For the benchmarkers. :D

Keep in mind that this one will also overclock L2 cache and bus freq a little.. So it might have a slight impact on battery life.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Swidilator:
[MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION] I'm willing to test the kernal, I'll take bleeding edge updates over stable any day of the week :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Alright, you'll be the last beta tester then. :D

I'll release the public version tomorrow. :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
I was a bit worried as it didn't clock back to deep sleep, but when it was fully charged and I disconnected the charger, it began using deep sleep very good.

Been browsing and hangouting a bit and battery does seem to hold longer.

I don't have the impression that it is any slower at all, maybe even a little smoother.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Isocadia:
Kernel boots here :D

Has been stable for half a day, haven't been able to test battery life :p

Steems ready for an official release :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Swidilator:
Listening to music(V4A super) seems to be problematic, as after a while of the screen being off, the audio gets maaaaaad laggy, like it sticks for a few seconds, and then updates and sticks again, haven't tried performance scheduler, will report on that when I wake up, in bed currently and I usually fall asleep to music, this might not be the case though tonight
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
Battery life is simply stunning.

I used my phone a lot, browsing, hangout and a long session of ingress.

The battery just won't run out....

Especially when playing ingress the difference between the old and new kernel is big.

For my daily ingress routine, sony stock takes about 80%, custom roms between 60% and 80%, the old kernel about 50% and now it is only 35% !

And it is running smooth as usual.

Cold outside and phone is cool so no thermal throttling that made it last longer.

Did not test music.

The problem described above is in all other kitkat roms for V.

I got to sleep now but I will be able to try the music tomorrow morning.

Sorry for the lousy cropping of tje screens, 256kbupload limit is just not enough nowadays...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
The second core is disabled on screen off, that might be the issue, as V4A's Super Audio Driver requires at least a dual core device.

You have two options. Either get any kernel controller app and disable the previously mentioned functionality in MPDecision, or reinstall the V4A driver with Medium Preset, which I am currently using without audio playback issues. :good:

The loss in quality is extremely minor imo.

I have reached 5 and a half hours of screen on time today..

This battery life is somehow pretty insane! :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Proudly announcing the release of NEO-1.2.0 and its included NeoKernel. :good:

Also included OTA Updates for everyone and replaced the Omni Camera - finally! :D

Make sure to check out the latest version, it really makes a difference! :)

Check "Downloads" in OP for a link, as well as "Changelog" for some more information.

If you like the update, please hit thanks. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
Almost everything he does, precise. Made in Germany :)

I have yet to monitor but first impression is battery really improved further without any disadvantages. Add locked BL support = fix the big hole Sony left. This ROM is right on the TOP of any ROM I ever tried.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] elikcandy:
It allows to change TTL by command iptables -t mangle -A POSTROUTING -o <int> -j TTL --ttl-set <TTL>. So internet provider can't cut traffic in modem mode.

To compile this you must just put M in "TTL" target support option. It shows on pictures in attachments.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
I don't want to turn off my phone because of this record :laugh: :

[MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION] again thank you for this much stable KK ROM
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
Sound is indeed bugging bigtime.

I get enormous distortions, even with the screen on, charger connected and V4A on battery saving driver.

That is a bummer...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Is it possible to downgrade from 1.2.0 to 1.1.4 without data loss in case we don't like the new update?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gorneman:
Is kernel source available? Or is it possible to use it in cm 11 (I don't like sony UI)? Thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
If you guys having problems with music playback or sth, just flash Neo 1.1.0 kernel with fastboot ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Is it also possible to just flash the rom backup from twrp?

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:24 AM ----------

Btw...my back button is not working at all after installing this 1.2.0 version?!?!

EDIT: I also tried flashing the kernel from v1.1.0 and wiping cache and dalvik cache but nothing helps...must be a problem in the update itself. Is it possible to install the previous version from twrp using backup i created previously and maybe flashing the kernel from 1.2.0 to 1.1.4 version of the rom?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
i'm also interested in solution to the back button. i'm at work but willing to flash if everything works fine. please update if after reflashing error is gone.

eagerly waiting to update to the new version with the update of the camera. the AOSP camera just don't work good in our devices, good that OP noticed and changed it :good:

[MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION] is it possible to flash 1.2.0 over 1.1.4 without wiping data? i'm just tired of setting some apps up after unsuccessful nandroid bakup/restore :o
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
Yeah I just installed this is an update, I didn't wipe system so maybe that's why I got the back button bug o.O
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Try interactive governor.

If it doesnt help, disable the hotplug of core1 via TricksterMod.

Simply flashing the NEO-1.1.0 boot.img will cause bugs, as the two binaries I mentioned have been removed.

Please check out the kernel settings. I dont have any issues, so there must be some kind of fix.

If you backup first, you just gotta do an advanced restore. Restore boot and system partitions. :)

Should be possible, but you also need NeoWave's system/lib/modules folder. :)

I'll upload the source soon.

I dont have any issues here - and I flashed the same zip as you all.

Please try reflashing the new update and confirm that Xperia keyboard is installed. (If not, back key won't work. It's a native KK issue)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
If you want, I can compile a kernel with this feature just for you. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
No need to wipe anything when upgrading rom versions for NeoWave. :good:

I did not change anything in the new version that might cause issues with the back button.

Please redownload the zip if you have issues. If the issues persist, I'll upload the rom again - just to be sure it's not broken.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
It was already on interactive by default.

Strange that you don't have this problems, it is quite often and the distorted sound sometimes persists several seconds.

I will download and flash the whole update, including big wipe, and if it still there I will try some other governor.

If that doesn't help I will reactivate the second core.

I do love the lowered battery usage with the new kernel, does it depend a lot on the second core being shut down or should there still be a noticeable difference with screen on?

I will report back later ;)

BTW, I did notice that my back home and tasks buttons sometimes wont react. Screen off and on gets them wworking again.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
just finished installing, back button working on every app i tested. however, i do feel that the touch is not so accurate. i do have situation when i have to tap twice for an app to start.

EDIT: or maybe it's just me not touching the display enough

everything working fine now. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HARD WORK! :good:

proud to have a developer like you on our device :D

after flashed 1.2.0. some heads up for other users so they don't make my mistakes

-when TWRP asks whether to install SuperSU after flashing, do it otherwise you loose root. i didn't and

had to reflash SuperSU zip that i had from my first install of NeoWave.

-follow the instructions on first post and don't flash under ART runtime. the app optimization will take quite long and the phone will be sluggish until it settles down and a restart.

will report back with further experience about the update. so far so good. lost 20% of battery for the backup, flash and couple of reboots due to loss of root (my mistake) :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
This is really strange. Oo

Please try to wipe cache/dalvik cache from recovery. :)

The second core hotplug should be around 33% of total battery improvement. The rest is undervolting.

Thanks for your kind words. :)

It's good to hear you dont have issues with the back key.

The inaccurate touch musst be you cause the touch drivers in kernel are still completely unmodified. :)

One more thing. When enabling OTA Survival from SuperSU settings you won't have to ever think about keeping root again. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
I'm reflashing once downloading has finished.

Is my beautiful accent color zip still up to date, as I saw that you had made changes in the 1.2 version ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Sure. I've just recreated the blue accent with the same methods I've used to create the custom accents.

Fixed some color issues that were not present in the custom accents. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
I tried redownloading the zip 2 more times...the 2nd time still had the same problem and the third attempt didn't even boot, it just kept rebooting to recovery. I restored my 1.1.4 backup which is working fine but I would also like to use the new kernel and update :S

Could I use the kernel (boot.img) from 1.2.0 version with version 1.1.4 until the update gets fixed or something?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Could anyone that has issues with the new update try to increase all voltage steps by 25000?

Perhaps the low voltage is causing issues on some devices.

If you flash the boot.img from 1.1.4, you'll have issues. Give me some time and I'll provide a zip with an unmodified kernel. This one will fix your issues. :)

It would be really helpful if you tried increasing the voltage by 25mV for every frequency and checked if the phone is more stable afterwards. If that's the case, the issue can be easily fixed.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
The uodate went smooth for me.

Which runtime were you using when flashed? Did you do a full whipe/reset from recovery?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
I was on Dalvik. I wiped cache and dalvik cache but I didn't wipe data cuz I don't wanna lose all the apps and settings and Neo said it isn't necessary.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
I flashed Neo 1.2.0 kernel on Neo 1.1.0 (I don't have time to do a clean install :D ) And After flashing I decreased voltage for 12.5mV with trickster again and it's stable till now :/
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I have just compared md5 sums of the file on android file host and my computer, and they are identic.

So this must be a kernel issue.

[MENTION=5968743]finac94[/MENTION]:

Try to flash NEO-1.2.0 and flash this zip afterwards. I've also added it to the add-ons section in OP.

It should fix your problem, but you will lose all custom kernel features.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] vrl13:
Forgive me forum for I have sinned.

It's been a long time (in hours) since my last confession

Today I had impure thoughts about my phone - thoughts that would have gone totaly against the normal flow of things and that until today were unconceivable!

Having left home without charger or powerbank I noticed that the battery kept staying high.

It's not entirely my fault as the demonic work made by Hephaisto's apprentice Neo corrupted my thinking into doing the unthinkable.

So I did.. And I must confess, I would do it again, without hesitation.

I went ahead and dared to charge my smartwatch from the phone using the Usb Otg cable.

Now the day draws near to its end and there is still enough juice left in my phone for me to write these words.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Your sins shall be forgiven. :D

Really laughed about that comment, nice one! :D

Being Hephaistos' apprentice feels pretty awesome, actually. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
What exactly will i lose by this? If you're going to fix the issue in the future, I'm going to wait and stick with the 1.1.4 version until then,l...it's not a problem for me to wait :)

I just don't understand why I'm having that problem when nobody else does :S
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
once again? did you download from mobile or PC?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I have no idea how to fix this, as you're the only one with that problem. So probably no fix in sight for now. :(

You will no longer have the features mentioned below Kernel Features in OP if you flash this.

I suggest to give it a shot. At least you have the new Camera and bugfixes. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] finac94:
I downloaded from PC

I might try installing it completely fresh by doing the factory reset too, maybe that will resolve the issue. :confused:

But I'm scared if the install doesn't go right and i get stuck in a bootloop again...will i still be able to access recovery and flash another ROM even though i did factory reset before? And should i also wipe cache and dalvik after the install? Because...when i installed 1.1.4 I had constant reboots so I wiped cache and dalvik cache and the reboots were gone but I noticed I lost Walkman and Total Commander apps....so maybe I lost something else that was crucial for this update o.O
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Sure. You will even be able to access the recovery if you wipe the system partition. So dont worry about that. :)

Get Titanium Backup, do a backup of your most important apps, then do a clean install of my rom.

Pease follow my installation instructions in OP carefully, and you should have no issues. :)

Good luck! :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] drn57:
I'm on neowave rom 1.1.0 for 2 days and everything works fine

smooth,clean and easy,no reboots,no random freezes..just perfect : )

Thank you for this great rom neo

can someone tell me does new kernel update works even beter or..?

is it worth flashing?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
It's not just a kernel update. It's the whole rom including the new kernel. I think it's worth since you only need to flash that, and no need to restore. However i do suggest to do a nand backup for just in case
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] getburnt:
Thank you very much for your rom, Neo. Few days ago I finally managed and got ready to root my Xperia V and flash a custom rom, and I came across this thread. I love your rom very much, very smooth indeed. I have a few questions tho:

1. Is that the camera orientation depends on the screen's rotation setting?

Personally I prefer rotation off because I often use my phone in bed and don't want the screen to rotate. I tried the camera included in this rom and also the Google Camera from Play Store, I found that I have to turn the rotation on so both cameras would rotate to the correct orientation. I don't have the same issue with CM 4.3 rom on my Nexus S tho.

Is there any camera could auto-rotate despite system setting?

2. Is the TWRP recovery 2.7.1.0 included in this rom a customized version? Because I cannot find Xperia V as a supported device from their website, they only support Xperia S, T, Z, ZU etc.

I'm asking because there is a link in the OP for Holofied TWRP Themes. They provide different versions for 263X, 271X and 280X so I'm trying to figure out if I could update to TWRP 2.8.0.1 and use the 280X theme, or I should just use the 271X theme.

3. May I have the opportunity to provide some localization work for the UI in Chinese?

(Traditional, Simplified and Hong Kong)

There are quite some parts displayed in mixed languages and it looks rather... funny. I don't know how tho, like filling a form? If it is alright, please let me know how could I do it, I can't be more happier if I could be helpful. ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
So, I did a complete factory reset, and a clean install.

After installing all my apps and configuring to my taste and needs, I set up Art.

Then I let my battery empty entirely, and recharged it fully while setting up all apps settings.

When it was full, I restarted, used the phone a bit, charged it fully and restarted.

After that I started testing sound, with Walkman and a fully setup V4A.

The same sound bug as before happened and as frequent as before.

Edit

I tried activating the overclock. Works fine but the sound bug persisted.

After that I have set the governor to interactive.

The sound bug has almost disappeared it is rare and hardly noticeable.

It is too early to cheer as I have to test some more to be sure and to see the impact of this setting on battery life and overall smoothness.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
1. Don't know, actually. I also use my phone with locked rotation but honestly the Camera was never a problem. The buttons are where they should be, the rest is irrelevant imo. :D

You might use Xposed and the module App Settings to force auto rotation for any app you want - but you won't be able to use ART runtime if you do.

2. I think the recovery is indeed an inofficial version. Probably ported from XT.

I did not develop the initial OmniRom for Xperia V myself, that's why I'm uncertain about it. But use the 271X theme and you'll be fine. :good:

3. Most of the Omni Settings are only available in English, I'm aware of that.

But any kind of translation would require lots of merging work whenever I update the base rom. I'd like to prevent this, if possible. :D

Does the sound bug only occur when using headplones or also when playing music via the integrated speaker?

Just asking cause I only tested the latter..

Please try to run the following in terminal:

su
echo "2" > /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/min_cpus
echo "0" > /sys/kernel/msm_mpdecision/conf/scroff_single_core

This will increase the minimum active cores to 2 and prevent the second core from turning off when screen is off. (Just in case. :D)

Please try and report if this solves your issues. :)

EDIT: So interactive solved the issue. That's great, I am using this governor myself without problems. :good:

Battery life won't be affected that much. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] neofral:
I'm using interactive and sio combination without oc. Smooth as silk and no problems so far.

However i just foundout that speakerphone function don't work. The speaker is whistling. Couple of days ago i came across a discussion to solve that, but it's late now for me will look for a solution tomorrow

EDIT: i just did couple of restarts and i see that the xda app refuses to keep the shortcut icon on homescreen

Another issue i noticed, youtube video is distorted while audio is fine via the phone speaker.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Knutselmaaster:
Lol I will try the speaker at daytime if you dont mind :o

Been listening music since and just two minor glitches.

Mind that it happened screen on as much as screen off.

It is not connected to the screen being on at all in my humble opinion.

It happened while browsing, ingress and hangouts, with charger and without.

I have no apps installed that run in the background sending my pics to google or such.

I had a windows pc a looooooong time ago that would only run winamp smoothly after I opened taskmanager and raised the priority of the winamp process.

The sound glitches were very similar.

Would it be possible to do such a thing in Linux/android? (yes I'm a noob and I'm running a debian server)

PS The launcher menu looks great in green, good job!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] getburnt:
mm...... so I think I'll have to bare with the auto-rotation for a while... :eek: as I take pictures quite often, and I'm happily using ART. :good: ;)

just hope the omnirom developer could fix the issue soon. :angel:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ksigit:
I can confirm this sound issue. I think it's the same/similar problem as early version of omnirom, related to hotplug kernel feature.

Speaker works fine though.
