As no reply, again:

Can't install either latest 12.1 or 12 (seems it's for mint, not for tsubasa):

Install failed

E: footer is wrong

E: Signature verification failed

Installation aborted.

How to install?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] pepsimusic:
First extract boot.img from the zip file

Then Flash boot.img via fastboot

Then feel free to install Neo rom

I seem to have a problem with MMS, I can send only one and than I have to reboot to send one again, anyone else had this problem or is it a known problem?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Drunkware:
Try using another app for MMS like Hangouts or something

Your carrier should be surprised with a single MMS message in the whole past 2 years :D

Can anyone tell me why i have increased battery draining after going to lollipop!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ksuuk:
Ok, I will give a try, but seems that no matter what LP build, ( I have tested FXP 5.1, CM 12, CM 12.1) they all drain battery like hell, noticed, that also other users are complaing about such drain here. After install, when I do the setup, max 1,5 hours and battery is from 100% to 15%.

Right now I flashed latest stock JB, rooted and removed bloatware, installed greenify and leandroid ( I did same for LP) and battery last's fine.

So is there any hope of improvement or we just must accept the fact that Xperia V is too weak for Lollipop?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] saved-j:
Try poison.

Anyway latest Neo's CM builds are very decent on battery life. Though i still had to charge my V 2-3 times a day on a high load, it's just 25% worse than JB
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ksuuk:
Poison seems still too "new xperia style to old phone", I prefer plain Android, without any extras.

Please describe Your "high load" activity? Are You using original battery? Are You tested some other, bigger battery?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] saved-j:
you should definitely try Poison. It works almost as seamlessly as stock, but it's much, much richer and usable. Moreover, SXV is not that old!

High Load activity:

1) lots of almost non-stop IM through WhatsApp, Skype, VKontakte, Facebook, while surfing Chrome and listening to music (Walkman).

2) making photos-on-the-go and sending them

3) several emails a day

4) 2-3 skype calls a day

5) many phone calls (which often not just appear to happen when the phone is in the pocket, but interrupt activity)

6) PIM (notes, camshots, etc)

I own the V for 1.5 years and still use original battery which has come with phone when I bought it. So the battery fades from 100 to 0% in 3...6 hrs. Earlier it's been 1.5-2 hours more, so I suppose either I had killed it or it's just degraded.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ksuuk:
This is really heavy usage. I use phone mostly for calls, reading emails, news, no music or games or chat. Well, when I manage to do full working backup from existing setup (I'll try to use Nandroid), I will try the Poison.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Pitagoras2000:
I have the same bug, regardless of the version of Lollipop I use (Neo, RR, Pacman, PA...). Install another application for text messages is not much help. Maybe it is the network operator, a lot of people in my country, after upgrade to lollipop, complain of an error sending/receiving MMS.

[MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION], the deodexed won the vote. When can we expect the next buid? :o

[MENTION=535343]all[/MENTION]: Been working on merging my NeoKernel features to the latest CAF sources, and here's the result: NeoKernel "beta" :D

Please test and report. Should be just as stable as earlier kernels, but I want to be sure before including that one in the new build. :)

For the curious ones among you, here is a link to the kernel sources: https://github.com/WhiteNeo-/kernel-msm

And for everyone else, you'll find a flashable zip in attachments. :D

Please test and report guys! ;)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ElArchibald:
Good, you've started work on new kernel branch. :) Me to want use it, already forked kernel source month ago, but don't have time... Btw, we still need updated Adreno libs.. Latest libs in Galaxy S3 (North America, SGH-I747M) firmware build I747MVLUFOB1, but it's KitKat libs... Atm our device uses fusion3 KitKat libs..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
How would one add support for these new libs to the kernel?

BTW, I've also heard about that phone and its new graphic drivers. Just never had an idea where to start.. :o
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] pepsimusic:
Any progress with battery bug on restart?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Not yet. Still gotta take a look at this, but I think it might be related to the wrong battery stats in some way. Gotta do some testing. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ifilgud:
I'm taking the opportunity to ask about my battery problem. I think it is not related to the ROM, but maybe anyone knows something about it :D

Two days before installing this wonderful rom for the first time (i.e. with official JB 4.3), the phone started to shutdown when reaching any battery level below 30% (or even higher sometimes). It suddenly shows 1% and Android automatically shutdowns itself (even window borders become orange).

If you try to boot, it complains about low battery level, and if you plug it and boot, it shows empty battery and charges correctly up to 100%.

I bought another battery (it is supposed to be original) and does the same, so it seems a phone problem. Any help please? :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
My phone usually shuts down at 15%, but the battery is two years old. Maybe the new battery you bought is a fake? :o

Also, you might try wiping battery stats and recalibrating your battery with some app from Play Store. And yes, I know that many people think battery calibration is a myth from ICS on, but it's still worth a try :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Alright, here comes a new CM12.1 build!

I'm quite impressed by the size of this build's changelog, honestly. :D

Been updating to a new kernel branch and got JustArchi's ArchiDroid Optimizations V4.1 and SaberMod 4.9 working with this ROM. This will definitely cause a difference in smoothness!

As well, I took some time to modify the included recovery. It's now using an awesome material theme, but should still be compatible with any other theme you might have been using.

Another thing worth to mention is that recoveries on FOTAKernel will no longer overwrite the recovery in boot.img from now on, because many people encountered issues during installation of CM12.1 as a result of this feature.. and people can easier upgrade from official CM12 if they want to. ;)

And finally, after having asked YOU for your opinion about odexed or deodexed builds, the ROM is no longer pre-optimized and will fully support Xposed framework from now on! :good:

As always, the changelog is in OP - just like the download links!

Happy flashing, and make sure to report your experiences with the new build here! :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ifilgud:
I've tried the calibration but no changes, but if you are having the same problem and doesn't know any solution, I can assume there is no solution for now :D

It's quite annoying to have only 60-65% of phone life, but the phone is one year and a half old and I'm, planning to buy a new one at the end of the year (I hope the new Xperias are here :D)

About the new battery, it looks original and the sender said it was, although the price was 1€ :D.

Even if it is not original, it shouldn't shutdown at 30%, it should last less I guess.

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] MESA:
Installed the new build and twrp when reboot still freezes. Any idea for a fix? :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ngyenkhanh:
I installed the new build, flashed the latest unofficial xposed for 5.1 and got into the launcher.

the thing is the phone stayed on for 5-7m, it restarted and boot loop again.

any idea ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Sagenut:
Hi everyone!

I am just landed on XDA!

I own an Xperia V still on stock JB 4.1.2

I am following this thread nearly everyday.... So I think that someday I will go flashing this ROM. :laugh:

Looking at the Users Feedback it promise to be probably the best choice around.

From time to time I got a battery problem similar to NEO and IFILGUD: when level was reaching 7% or 4% it was going to 0% and starting the shutdown procedure.

When it happen I solved in this way: my phone is rooted. Using a File Manager that manage Root (I use Root Explorer) I go into /DATA/SYSTEM and manually delete the BATTERYSTATS.BIN with the battery charger still connected and battery level at 100%.

Then I disconnect the battery charger and use the phone normally.

After this operation my phone works correctly up to 0% without sudden shutdown...... Up to the next time that usually happen in some months. Phone is nearly 2 years old.

Hope that this info can help You to regain Your battery life.

Keep Up the Good Work!

I really want to Thanks NEO for All His Efforts in this ROM...... Even if I am still not aboard!!!:good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
If the updated sources didn't fix it, I don't know what else we could try. :(

Strange. Did you install any modules, at any time before? Maybe some old data was left and caused this bootloop.

If not, I need a log of the bootloop. :)

Thanks mate! I'll be sure to try this as soon as my phone hits 100% :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] MESA:
The first install only has the bug for me. After that i flashed keyboard and xposed and its working fine. Thanks. :) Xposed is also working great. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ifilgud:
Thanks for the tip, I think that is what battery calibrators do, but I'm not sure and I will try it asap :)

No i didnt install any modules before. Well before flashing the xposed i did install the xposed apk first . that's it.

and how can i get the log of the bootloop ?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
You need to have USB debugging enabled. Then use adb on your computer to take a logcat. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gabriel.pineda:
Hi Neo! Great work as usual. Still downloading the newest 12.1 build.

Anyway, would like to ask about the theme that you are currently doing. Is it almost done?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Yeah. It's making good progress. All important apps are themed and looking great (imho :D)

I'm still looking for a decent way to release it in Google Play and might need the help of a skilled app developer to do so, because I want it to become a theme creator rather than a simple theme.

Imagine something similar to ThemeDIY, but with Sense UI. :)

TWRP swipe button got lost

guys, I know this is not exactly connected to the ROM itself, but when I tried to move from CM12 to CM12.1 today, somehow the swipe button in TWPR recovery got lost. Which means I cannot install anything right now.

TWRP itself reacts to touches, but I can't do the swipe action.

Any idea what caused this and mainly how to fix it?

the theme was the issue, applying new theme helped.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] andrasandhi:
[/COLOR]

this happen on me too. tried to wiping batt stat.bin and recalib, no help :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peter-k:
batterystats.bin is the file where all the stats for Settings /Battery or Settings / Power Management are stored. It gets wiped automatically when the phone approaches 100 % charge and is rebooted. It's a recording file, nothing that influences battery usage.

May be you did already but if not try: Run the battery down until the phone switches off, then remove it for 15 minutes. Then recharge it to 100 %, and then switch it on.

You could also try https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.battools.saver260715 . Could be just a vehicle to push ads I don't know but since it does not cost money you could try.

Look at sys / class / power_supply / battery / charge full, what is written there?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ifilgud:
Hi!

As I haven't tried it yet, I will doit asap :)

I will also take a look to the app, and the file contains 1760000, and the phone is right now at 73% (charging).

Thankss!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ksuuk:
Just installed the latest 12.1 build, so far all seems OK, but one strange notification, the task killer, I use, don't show any running apps, except task killer himself? This is the first such build, that the same task killer I have always used, acts so. What could be the reason?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
I don't know how to fix that but you should not use any task killer in Android :)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I recommend switching to Greenify. It's practically a task-killer, but as it's root-based doesn't need this new permission.

I'm using this app myself and it saves me around 150mb of ram. :good:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
Yeah, Neo's latest CM 12 build has Optimizations, Over Clocking, Undervolting, TWRP and so on, By the way why you're running from CM 12.1? :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
Battery Shutdown Manager

To everyone out there who use Xposed Framework, I recommend Battery Shutdown Manager module.

It displays a countdown dialog before actual shutdown.

So if your phone shuts down in 5-15% of battery, you'll have some seconds to connect your charger and save your phone :good: (take a look at attachment)

Free version displays this dialog 5 seconds before shutdown but Pro version can display is up to 60 seconds. (I'm using 15)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ksuuk:
Well, I tried almost every rom and all they have some problems. Seems stock JB is the most stable one, but as my main phone (Xperia Z1) uses Lollipop, I'd like to use Lollipop also in my secondary phone (Xpeeria V), however CM12.1 drained battery so fast, that I could not even finish the basic configuration, also my old task killer didn't work with CM12.1 and Apex Launcher folder didn't show icons. Clearly Lollipop is not optimised for Xperia V, even using Greenify, changing CPU speed etc.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
My CM12 is optimized and thus faster than official builds, however I recommend installing my CM12.1 builds instead as they are just as stable as CM12, but even more optimized and have the latest security patches and stuff. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] emmkay:
Hey NEO, I am using your CM 12.1 Neo's Homebuilds ROM from 2015-08-08 and want to upgrade to the build from 2015-08-24. As my Xperia V is fully configured + all apps installed + everything running fine, I don't want to start all over from scratch. So is there a way to update just the ROM and leave all settings/apps/accounts as is?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] maystar:
Just follow the update procedure . I would recommend a backup anyway.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] emmkay:
Thank you for the super fast reply! :good: Which app do you recommend for a complete backup of system + apps + settings?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ckovvi:
You can do that by creating a nandroid backup via TWRP recovery.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Sagenut:
Hi!

I see that some users report a very high battery drain with this ROM.

I would like to ask to users that are on this ROM in stable way by sometime if they could report the duration of the battery with a normal daily use.

I mean after the first days where You play with everything to make settings, explore Lollipop and so on.

Thank You!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] maystar:
If you like to backup and restore individual apps I can recommend https://github.com/jensstein/oandbackup
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
I think you have some bad configurations.

My record for this device is 6 hours screen on time, that was on KK Carbon. That was with highest possible undervolting, and configured OnDemand Governor and lowest brightness.

With this ROM, and brightness at 35% percent, I can easily get more than 3 hours of screen on time. I just undervolted! I'm not even using Greenify, and I have Xposed Installed. P.S my battery is 2 years old :p

With lowest brightness I can get around 4 hours. just like Stock JB :)

Check attachments :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Sagenut:
:mad: 4 Hours from 100% to 0% (about)?

I suppose that You are on heavy usage with 3-4 hours of screen on. :D

So maybe it's normal.

I am still on stock JB 4.1.2 and after removing all the bloatware and Greenifying not vital apps now I have my full battery charge that last from 24 to 36 hours.

With 4G Data or WiFi always at work.

But I have to say that I am not constantly with the phone in my hands. :cowboy:

I will check my battery stats usage about screen and other things before charging next times to try to compare a bit my way of usage with other users.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Aria.A97:
That's 4 hours of screen on time. My phone lasts for 24 hours from 100 to 5% :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I managed to get 5 hours of screen on time with undervolting, minimum brightness and stock CPU freqs.

However, I have only a few applications running in background, so my usage pattern is quite battery friendly :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SSVsSunSt:
So, hello again :good: As I was out for almost a month, awaited tons of new pages in this thread, but.... Maximum battery life was ~37 hours, I didn't use phone at all, but still there were some applications running in background.
