[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
Mostly bugfixes, we can't do anything (ok, we can contribute to CM but at least I'm not good enough to do that^^).

They probably will merge anything if there's something new but as CM mostly also fixes bugs, the major ones will already be there.

@updateing:

Just a question concerning your source:

The file /arch/arm/kernel/machine_kexec.c has been changed by your "Import Sony things", but neither kk_2.7-stable nor CM11 has this change recorded.

But you also mentioned in your commit message:

Where did you get this change from? Maybe this fixes my build ;)

If you want to look into the error message yourself too (now also with stderr):

Actually my big problem is the mic. Very bad audio in phonecalls. I didn't notice it until people complained to me. So I tested it an it is there.

About ram, the problem is that the browser (I have tried all of them) after a few minutes blows up and uses 300-400 MB of ram. I have to close and reopen, because the phone starts to lag heavily.

Thanks for answering. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
I do not experience this issue with RAM neither but: 300MB of RAM claimed by browser is no problem. It only is if there is none left. Even if the browser claimed 300MB I had 100MB left. Which is enough for most stuff. If not, the browser needs to release the RAM.

So: It is no problem if the browser takes 300-400MB RAM, it only is if it lags heavily, as you say. But: What else do you have open that there's no RAM left?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I guess the consequence is a new 12.1 neo build for this weekend. :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
Settings is open, because I monitor with settings the RAM. :rolleyes:

For example, right now, I only have XDA app and settings open. Look at the screenshot.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
Edit: If I would add a browser now, it would get really laggy....
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Well. A screenshot of your currently running applications would be more helpful.

The screenshot you linked shows apps that are kept in cache in case you need them, but are still ready to be killed if ram is needed.

I have noticed that rebooting the phone daily has a positive effect on free ram, especially the part that is used by "system"

And yes, I also experience launcher redraws after browsing. Probably this is one of the bugs that was fixed in 5.1.1.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tajimura:
Okay, guys, on FXP team's webpage our Xperia T has got moved to "Legacy Support" section. Just the same for V and TX. So no official CM12 for us, I guess. [MENTION=260692]NeoWave[/MENTION], [MENTION=4812336]updateing[/MENTION], for now you two are our last bastion against ROM-death (if tilal won't get more active).

Sorry for offtopic and happy New Year, guys :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sebasanchez:
I'm a bit confused. What about CM team? :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] tajimura:
FXP is CM team for Sony
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Theonewithideas:
Missing initial setup

Is it just me, or is the initial Android setup wizard missing? I want to restore stuff from my Google account, but I can't do it with wizard..

Okay, some kind of wizard appears when signing in into Google account, but it's still not that initial wizard that shows language chooser and stuff like that. Is that linked to the fact that there are no accounts?

EDIT: Okay, looks like I didn't flash it properly the first time, now it's all working fine, wizard and all...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
Do you forgot to flash gapps?

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
First of all, happy new year to everyone! :)

Well, I will do my best to keep our phones alive, cause imo they are far away from being legacy devices! ;)

Got a GTX770, but that one doesn't help a lot with compiling. :laugh:

Had to save money with the cpu ^^
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] CS Fan 991:
Well I have a 4770k (i7) but I got a r9 270, probably gonna replace em with 2x 290 or a 290x

What's up with this rom, is it stable?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] valeri.nikolov:
Happy New Year WhiteNeo!

Thanks for the good job with this ROM!

I agree our phones are far away from being legacy device.

I sent small a donation, the least I could do.

Keep up the good job!

Cheers,

Valeri
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
Sounds nice. :good:

Might as well check out my gpu, its running Assassins Creed 4 with maximum settings at more than 120fps :D

Yeah, it's pretty stable. Some stuff still needs to be fixed, but it's good enough for everyday usage. :)

No device related bugs :good:

Thanks a lot, I'm glad about any donation. :victory:

Happy new year! :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
Happy new year everybody and thanks for keeping up the devices.

Actually, if there's no possibiliy of a official ROM, I'm begging you for a build guide (what customizations etc) [emoji14]

How long does the build on your machine take? So I can guess how long it'll take on mine^^
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ed_Newgate:
The rom work perfectly! Thank you
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
On my i5 3.4GHz Quad Core with 8GB ram and no ssd, compilation of Android 5 with compiler cache, a custom toolchain and high optimization level takes around 2 hours. This is, using a virtual machine (Arch). I think if I used Dual Boot, I could reduce this time to less than 1,5 hours.

Add an ssd and overclock a little, and you'd reach 50min. :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Imhuurd:
to pin

- settings > security > screen pinning (Turn it ON)

- hold overview button to get recent apps > click pin icon > press start

to unpin

- hold overview button and back button together, and you will unpin the app

p.s - overview button is the recent apps button :) in case you don't know..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] MESA:
Yes but when you hold recent button for more than 1 second it turns you back to previous app and that's why this function dont work for me. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
I just wanted to check whether my laptop can do it within 1 night. I think it'll make it ^^.

How did you solve the python3-incompatibility of the repo commands etc?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] moliverac8:
[MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION] I have seen some Lollipop Roms that has a dark appearance, and I was wondering if we can have it too?

Thanks
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I used BBQLinux, based on Arch.. This one already includes everything that is necessary for Android development :)

Would have to compile a different rom source, and that includes some hours of work and probably some new bugs.

But there's certainly a way to mod the framework for dark ui..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
Does anyone has this bug, too?:

When I'm inside a multimedia app (eg Apollo) and I'm adjusting volume via the rockers the upcoming visualisation is just somehow frozen. The volume does change but it is not displayed so. Normally I can even use the finger to slide the volume but this doesn't work either.

The system volume works flawlessly, however.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
Great!

---------- Post added at 08:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:55 PM ----------

Thanks a lot. The currently running shows 290mb free. So this means I was looking at the wrong statistics! :D

Any tip about the microphone volume problem? (It is too low) Faux sound isn't really doing the job. Is constantly loses settings.

I wish you good and troublefree building of the new 5.1.1

:thumbup:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] WhiteNeo:
I guess the microphone issue is a result of the speakerphone whistle fix that is included in this rom.

So, you have the choice.. :)

By the way, if other people could share their opinions on this matter, I would be glad to provide the most wanted fix of the two above in my next build. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
Edit: I am not sure that it is in this build. I had noticed that something is wrong with the mic, already from 5.0.2
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
I found it ;)

You have "cached process" active in the view.

You can imagine that (rughly) like this:

You open up an app and it gets written to RAM.

You close the app.

Now: The app will still be seen in "cached processes" – why? It would have even a negative effect on the RAM if it would "overwrite" the space the app claimed. I mean, now it's "1010110101001" and overwriting would mean putting all "0000000000". This would be bad, because when a new app wants the RAM it will overwrite it anyways.

So: as long as you do not open another app, the "cached processes" will be near full use. It seems like they are blocking the RAM but they AREN'T. They are just like "hey, why move, when somebody needs this space we can do so anyways – and if not, we can be faster". This *improves* the overall speed of the ROM.

To return to the "processes view" just go to the 3-dot-menu and got to "show running processes".

*This* will be much less full. And even here applies: If this is full this is actually more a good sign than a bad one – in most cases.

If this is not full and browser makes your phone lag this is probably due to something else ;)

EDIT: Dammit, [MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION] was faster xD

Is 5.1.1 merge a cause for a new build? [emoji14]

Mine is not ready now and I want to debug it first.

Many report huge performance increases but I'm not sure whether these are just placebos as the memleaks atleast were – afaik – fixes by cm already. Maybe Google did it better or had some other cool fixes :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
Thank you both for taking the time and explaining! :D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] dantefff:
I have no microphone nor lag issues. In fact this rom is near perfect for me. Could that issues be because a dirty flash?

Thanks for this run WhiteNeo
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
No, this is not the case. I did a clean install. It could be a hardware issue though... I really don't know. We would need more opinions to verify that.

Also I haven't try to test if it has something to do with using 2g or 3g. Or data on/of. I will try some testing

owner information

Question:

Where is the "owner information" ?

In Vanilla 5.1 it's in the security settings.

Can't find it here.

I need it to have "ICE"-Information shown in display even in lockscreen.

Great Rom!Speed and stability.The only thing i don't like about cm is the google camera app..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Steve De Step:
Hello everyone!

I've been using the most recent build of Neo's CM12.1 (20150419, clean install) on my Xperia T with the kernel provided and no additional mods, and since day 1 I've been experiencing reboots. Generally, I noticed that it was a network thing, like after a phone call or switching to Data from Wi-Fi, or opening maps, so I came to the assumption it had to do with location. The weird thing is that I also had more frequent reboots on recent CM12 official builds before I flashed this one.

To elaborate, I ran a logcat on adb and tried to replicate the issue. My suspicions were confirmed when I set the location settings to high accuracy, opened Google Maps and the phone rebooted.

Ultimately, I can't make sense of logs so I'd be grateful if someone would care to explain it to me. The log is attached, but I had to trim it from the beginning a bit because it's a wall of text. Thanks in advance.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] harowa:
For me gps works very well, better as before and much faster with the new build (5.1.1)

I only use FasterGPS for the settings, that's all.

---------- Post added at 01:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:50 PM ----------

Thank you very much for the new build and your hard work on this rom. It feels a bit smoother than 5.1, particularly gps is much faster than before. However, I always optimize with FasterGPS.

:good::good::good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] principemoro88:
Tell me honestly, the 12.1 is better than 12? Is it stable? your advice is to stay with the old version waiting for the new updates of cm12.1? Thank you so much!!
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
It's definitely faster than the pre-last CM12. But I face a few bugs which I think will be soon reporting with a bit more verbosity.

Random reboots but only whe n connected to PC/charging

Since the new build with merged 5.1.1 sources a strange launcher bugthat makes sometimes disappear the "home row", that is the bottom row of apps.

Everything else working rather fine.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] harowa:
I am a user and not a tester. I have my own using habits.

Filesystem remains ext4!

Bevor flashing roms I always strip the zip file (unused apk's / wallpapers)

I never use trebuchet but nova as launcher.

I don't play games.

I don't use facebook / google+ but whatsapp.

I use my phone as phone (to make calls) and as drivers log.

In this environment, the phone is now perfect for me and my user behavior.:good::good::good:

:D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Chefov01:
Huhh, I rarely write in the topic because I rarely get any problems, but here it goes...

So lately (last few builds) I have been having crazy battery drains while my phone is idle... This Cell Standby thing is killing my battery. Using BetterBatteryStats solves nothing for me, because it shows PowerManagerService.WakeLocks or Suspend-backoff and both of them are inconclusive.

My setup is: Clean installed latest build plus gapps from OP, plus a few apps like VLC, VLC remote, facebook lite (stopped it's awake permission with Privacy guard), Open camera, twitch apps, nothing crazy or fancy...

I am getting kinda' frustrated using this ROM now... :/

P.S. I tried running android without GAPPS for two days, same thing kept happening...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] panostr:
I did a clean install of the new 5.1.1 rom.It's definitely more stable than the previous one.I think battery drain is better.No more lancher redraws and i think the memory management is better.GPS working fine here.I'm on F2FS.Some little bugs are:

1. The PIN screen still needs some seconds to show up.

2. In every restart Settings crash message(fortunately only once).

3. On multitask mode there is an overlay only if there are apps waiting.If you have the google search installed it shows the searchbar otherwise it shows the clock.

Do a factory reset first and wipe system partition.......

If not working try to flash boot.img from cm-12.1-20150424-UNOFFICIAL-mint to device and than the factory reset....Good luck:D
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Sa3fanyoussef:
Thanks for replying

But how can i do factory reset.. From twrp???
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Arcano:
Recalling from memory, there's a wipe option on the main screen of TWRP, go in there and at the bottom there should be a slide control to perform a factory reset.

repartition the xperia t / mint

Hello.

FIrstly, thanks for the stable 12 / 5.0.2 rom for the T, it's running really well for me.

I am just wondering if there is a sensible guide to repartition this phone, as the 1.97GB allocated for apps/system is really low for Lollipop/ART and I'm sure everyone is running out of space quite quickly.

:confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
Mentioned here already.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2712253

You don't need to flash a different recocery, somewhere in there you should find my post which is shorter as TWRP can do this stuff ootb. You still need e2fsprogs though.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Pod Kalambur:
Thanks very much. I didn't like the sound of reverting to stock very much.

I'm still a bit confused with the instructions on using fs-utils or e2fsprogs via adb.

I am using Linux so already have e2fsprogs installed; does that mean that once I am in recovery and connected with adb that I can run all these commands using the command line via the terminal rather than having to mess around with the phone? ( I saw another guy had tried that).

At what stage do I use fs-utils?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
I maybe can amswer this in more detail a bit later on but no, et2fsprogs of your Linux box won't work. This is because they are compiled against x86 architecture and not against arm. If your Linux box would happen to have the same cpu architecture as your mobile, I could imagine to chroot into the android and then run it – but that's just theory.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Pod Kalambur:
So the terminal commands are being run from the terminal in TWRP?

Does this already contain e2fsprogs?

I was confused as the original poster goes into detail about unpacking fs-utils to the phone, but doesnt appear to mention them after that.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] LeonardK:
kinda. The thing is, your phone has one terminal which you "can't see". TWRP offers [em]access[/em] to this terminal (ie.: TWRP "doesn't have a terminal"). But you can also use ADB to access the same terminal – which I find rather more easy as I have a proper keyboard then.

Nope, the fs-utils are not already built-in into the ROM. The important line is under step 17:

you go into the folder in which you copied the fs-utils (ie. e2fsprogs etc) binaries and then execute the commands from there (tune2fs will be sourced in the current directory).

So fs-utils / e2fsprogs in the last 3 lines in the "script" I put together here

One question: i have low signal on WiFi. I mean on all routers. I'm standing next to the wifi rooter and I have like 60%. I tried a few things and apps, with no success. Any tips?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] ziggyke:
For not having this error anymore, you should revert back to default FOTAkernel instead of TWRP on FOTAkernel.

This was already mentioned in this post.

Please check that post out and you should have no more problems to install this ROM.

[MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION]: Maybe adding my post to OP and also for adding a link towards repartitioning guide? So it is covered in the FAQ and should be asked again in the thread. Many thanks for this awesome ROM!

Thanks I already used doomkernel then flashed boot.img without reference to default FOTAKERNEL

I will try and tell you :) Thanks again
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Dakmor86:
Hi guys, I've just installed CM 12.1 on my Xperia T (lt30p). I've followed every single step like it's explained in the first page, but I'm having some issues....

1 - Google Calendar doesn't work at all!!! After I added my Google account to the device, everything works except Calendar. When I go to the Calendar he try to sync, but after a while he asks me my Google Account again. But when I put my email, it says that the account already exists on the phone... So I tried to remove the account and I tried to add the google account from the calendar, but I can only choose "Cyanomodgen" or "Exchange" account.... no Google account. :(

2 - If turn off the phone completely, when I turn it on again, it appears only the "Sony" logo then nothing!! So I have to reset it pressing "volume up" + "power button" for a while. Usually at the second time it always start...

3 - When I go to the gallery and I watch pictures in full screen, the 3 buttons (back, home, etc.) doesn't disappear like on the official Sony ROM. Is there any way to fix it? It's pretty annoying waste part of the screen like that... I would like to have a real full screen when I watch pictures and videos.

4 - I still don't understand why the camera now take pictures in 4:3 instead of 16:9, but I guess I can solve it easily installing some camera app from the store.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] TheFireAvatar:
I know this might sound stupid, but if I want to upgrade to a newer version, will I have to flash again, or is it like the official CM?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Dakmor86:
Ok I just solved it going to settings -> app and pressing "disable" on the Calendar, then I opened the App Store and I downloaded the last version of the Google Calendar from the store, now it works. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] harowa:
What did you mean? You can't update a homebuild with OTA. You everytime need flash the last build from TWRP after you downloaded it. All you need further is to flash SuperSU also.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] el_angelo:
Anyone else having issues with Bluetooth? Everytime i want to connect with my car radio or headphones i need to pair again. Also after adding them to the secure devices (smart lock) they seem to be forgotten after the disconnect. I'm running the cm12.1 build from 24 april after factory resetting and wiping a cm12 build (on which i actually had the same problem)

I've tried searching for the issue in other CM12 roms but no one else seem to have the problem...

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Tolios1999:
Mine saves the devices also. But sometimes (like with Sony smartwatch 2) I have to open the "smart connect" app to get the watch connected.

Also the smartlock most of the times doesn't work properly. But I solve this by going to "trust agents" (just above the smart lock option) and uncheck and check again the "smart lock (Google)" option. After that, the smart lock is working OK.

I hope that hepls. [MENTION=5122093]WhiteNeo[/MENTION], maybe you could look in to that.

And maybe any tips about my WiFi weak signal issue (a few posts back)? Thanks in advance! :thumbup:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] el_angelo:
I have the impression that i only have this problem if i switch to plane mode in between the connection attempts. So if i would pair with a bluetooth device, disconnect and one hour later retry to connect, it would work... but if i switch to plane mode in between (at night for me) then i have to pair again...
