Great ROM

You r great man, thanx to ur hard work..

What about battery drain and vpn apps?

I think we will got better performance and

Will stop battery drain if u droped the

Encription feature as i read on this forum

Don't forget the xposed framework is still

Not working on CM12 so we can't use greenify

With expremental features and that is one of

Reasons to drain battery, so we still wait a fix

It's not lqggy. It's almost 80% as fast as Kitkat.... And yeah root access for apps seems to have problems... No random boots faced since tomorrow... Good work developer... Keep it up....
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] SKravUA:
Nice, new ROM is more stable. But.. It's still some problems.. Camera has very few options: there is no option like "Save img/video to external_sd" and some other options from kit-kat camera.

Also usb-devices not working. I connected a USB flash drive, phone did not see it. After connection OTG battery icon changed to charging mode

Hi!

I don´t use youtube app or BT or video recording so, I am very happy with this rom.

Battery drains seems just normal to me. And Root access work fine (if stop working, just disable it and enable it again on development options).

No force closes (except with video recording). Also, my computer doesn't want to recognize the phone. I have all drivers installed but, when the phone is on recovery the pc is able to see it.

Yesterday Waze app worked pretty fine all afternoon with no problems at all.

Good work guys!

And this is only weekly #1 update, can´t wait for next update. :good: :good: :good: :good: :good:

Hiyer all,

Firstly many thanks to Hardlight for all the work getting this great ROM working for the xperia GO.

I was just wondering if anyone has a solution for this problem I've encountered running the week 39 ROM on an Xperia GO. A few days while browsing with the Lightning browser, my phone went from a few bars signal to "no service" and nothing I have tried since has enabled me to get signal back. I've:

- rebooted

- done a factory data reset

- gone back into TWRP wiped the cache etc and re-flashed the ROM, but still I just get "no service" and can't get any signal at all. :(

It's not my sim card as that works in another phone.

Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HardLight:
Try changing to defaults: ROW I/O scheduler, disable assets purging, and keep KSM.

Could you check what filesystem is used for /data partition? You can do it with this command:

adb shell mount | grep /data

Looks like sim card does not connect to its socket properly. Try cleaning sim with rubber eraser and check if socket on the phone is clean.

It's not likely to be software problem, but if previous suggestion won't work you can try another custom rom (like cm11) or even reflashing stock rom with flashtool.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] necromode:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p11 /data ext4

I'm running your great cm11 20161004, with ROW, disabled assets and KSM OFF, i have zero random reboots.

I remember random reboots in final STE with NOOP scheduler, also with these three disabled equal to zero random reboots, believe it could be a common problem in our cm11-12.

This rom is great! The only issue I have is that the microphone randomly stops working. Maybe it is a hardware problem, but the mic worked in the stock rom. Anyway, thanks for your great work, I love my "new" old reliable Go!.

(ps. looks like weekly 40 is down?)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] The_LLH:
OK,

my humble opinion.

I love the ROM, I really do, everything about it is great.

But our device is as is and so I opted for some "miraculous" tweaks, it made it even better, fluid enough for simple (sms, calls etc) daily use, but forget using the browser, opera mini ftw, and I think that is because of the WebView (correct me if wrong). No gapps btw, I think it would kill the usability of the ROM, at least on XGO.

Now, the thing is...

I am going constantly going back to your CM11 not because this is no good, on a contrary, I'm eager to see how it'll develop even further cuz lollipop on xgo is a beautiful thing to see, and if you need testers, just pm me...

Reason here:

If you need compass more than light sensor replace /system/lib/hw/sensors.montblanc.so with this one and reboot the phone.

I experiencing reboot after attempts to change ip rules (to forward wifi ap traffic to vpn) like

OR

Haven't found helpful info in system logs, `adb logcat` shows nothing after command execution and before reboot.

Rarely it works fine but in most cases it cause device reboot.

Can you please take a look?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MicheleM:
Hello,

I installed the ROM w40 and everything worked smoothly. After installing Gapps the phone started being laggy and very slow. Opening and closing apps is a pain. I installed the very minimum package of gapps. Just playstore and not much more. I don't know if it is just a problem of RAM or something else. What do you think?

Also, I am not an expert, I wonder if this ROM is heavier than the stock jelly bean in terms of Ram requirements... What do you think? Should I go back to Jelly Bean in order to use Gapps?

Thanks a lot!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HardLight:
MicroG

Hi,

This lag is caused by phone hardware limitation: our SoC is weak and ram is also does not meet nowadays apps requirements. Google play services and generally all other google apps have became being huge memory hogs, than can "eat" more ram than main system processes combined. Not using gapps would greatly improve overall phone responsiveness, but living without google services is difficult.

Open source lightweight google services alternative MicroG should solve this problem.

To be able to use MicroG rom must support signature spoofing, here is built with that enabled: DOWNLOAD

If you or someone else tries or have already tried MicroG feel free to report back your experience with it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] leo.chirkov:
I've been using "Network location" aka "Unified Network Location Provider module (UnifiedNlp)" part of "NOGAPPS project" for more than a year by now and it works pretty well, at least with W39 build.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MicheleM:
Thank you for your answer. The ROM that you linked is made for Xperia U. Will this work for Xperia go as well?

Also what is the difference between this MicroG package that you posted and the Micro, Nano, Pico packages in here: http://opengapps.org/?

Sorry I am a little uneducated in this field.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] HardLight:
This is XperiaGo rom.

Micro, Nano, Pico is just types of Gapps based on whats included in flashable zip. Gapps are property software made by Google and bundled with stock firmwares or gathered into flashable zip by someone (e.g. opengapps) for using with custom roms. The main component of Gapps is Google Play Services, that allows you to use Play Store, Youtube, Gmail and even a lot of 3rd party apps that depends on Play Services.

MicroG is fully open source project and aims to provide same functionality as Google Play Services, but as light as possible.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] MicheleM:
Sorry, in the DOWNLOAD link that you posted above it says "Applies to Sony Xperia U".

That's why I asked.

I will try this MicroG. Thanks for your help!

UVC Webcam on Xperia Go

Hello,

may I ask a question about using usb uvc cams on Xperia Go. I haven't found any solutions to get a Usb uvc webcam work on a Xperia Go Device. All my attempts failed with the error: "uvcvideo: Failed to submit urb 0 (-)". Perhaps here in this thread someone was able to get a usb cam working on Xperia Go and could help me out.

Please let me know, if there are any developments (could be a bug of the 3.0.8 Kernel?) on this sector.

Patch for CD-mode

Hi everyone!

Can someone tell me if it is possible to patch the kernel to support CD mode.

I need this to make DriveDroid work correctly.

There is a link down in footer of this post: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2196707

And the changes are listed here:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/46bd47757a9f34c1d95dd2620414893212fb0526

:laugh:

Or can someone build a kernel with this patch if it is possible ;)

----------------

Sorry, I've looked up in the sourcecode (https://github.com/XperiaSTE/androi...b/cm-12.1/drivers/usb/gadget/storage_common.c) - the support is already enabled, if i understood that correctly...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Peter____:
Kernel Patch

Hello,

you can download the source from:

https://github.com/XperiaSTE/android_kernel_sony_u8500 (choose cm 12.1 brunch).

Then change the two files manually in the sourcecode, which you need for the cdmode.

Next read out the kernel config with ikconfig file https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/scripts/extract-ikconfig and start compiling the new kernel (perhaps use the doomlord guide for the compilation: https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2447310

Perhaps use dooms 4.7 gcc toolchain for the compilation.

If you can create the zImage you can create the boot-Img with the command in the readme-xperia file in the kernelsource.

To get the ramdisk take a look at this site https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1659584 and download the program from the github link.

Last thing is to build and flash the new boot.img.

If the phone doesn't boot, you need a different ramdisk or a different toolchain.

So far,

Peter
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] XeoniuMiX:
Thank you very much for your answer, Peter____!

But as I said in the first post, the cdmode support is already enabled in https://github.com/XperiaSTE/android_kernel_sony_u8500 and I really don't know why the drivedroid said it isn't.

Hello [MENTION=4974969]HardLight[/MENTION],

Great job, I've finally got lollipop on my lotus, Great! Thank you for all your work.

One question, I got some error while upgrading while the system was doing something with the gapps file. I assume that TWRP did not have much available space for unpacking the .zip, and therefore I have now my phone working but whith a clean LineageOS 12.1, with no Gapps.

Now I've cleaned up some files, and I would like to give it a try.

My question is, How can I get into the TWRP menu again once the LineageOS 12.1 is installed. I've tried holding the "vol-" button for a while after the sony logo shows up but nothing happens. I've also tried pressing the "vol-" button just when I press the power button, and holding the "vol-" for a while, but the phone starts as if I was doing nothing.

How can I get to the TWRP menu? Is there any special shortcut when LineageOS 12.1 is installed?

For all your help, thanks in advance.

Best regards.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Peter____:

Hello [MENTION=8434791]Peter____[/MENTION],

Thanks for your kind reply. I've finally managed to restart my Xperia Go (ST27i) in Recovery mode using Lineage 12.1.

My problen was that I was pressing the "vol-" button just as you said, just after the Sony logo appeared in my screen, and then, my phone ignores the "Recovery mode" command.

In fact, I have to wait for some seconds after the logo appears. It always works OK if I press the "vol-" button just after the led light goes off when the Sony logo is on the screen. I spent some time on trial and error until I found the precise moment to press the button.

I've also found another work around to restart the phone in recovery mode from the Retart menu in the phone. First thing you've got to do is to activate the "Developer options" at the settings menu. To activate this, you have to go to "Settings -> About phone" and touch over the "Build number" field something like seven or eight times. After you do this, you get the "Developer options" enabled.

Once you've got this, you go to "Settings -> Developer options" and activate the "Advanced reboot" option. Once this option is enabled, when the phone is unlocked and you long press the power button, you get the usual "Power off / Reboot / Airplane mode" menu, but when you press over the Reboot option, you get:

Reboot

Soft Reboot

Recovery

Bootloader

And voilà, you can restart your phone in recovery or bootloader modes.

I hope this information will help others who are not so expert in the Android world, as it is my case.

Best regards.
