or you can use program from market 'Screen Off and Lock' with Old TV style effect.

Or you could get a Nexus S

Yep - not a bug, more of a relief.
We spent 30 years with CRT TVs - can we not move on?

Heh, my Xperia neo MT15a had the same simple fadeout effect both on 2.3.3 and 2.3.4. I liked the Nexus One old TV effect when I had it in my MIUI Milestone...
Anyone care to tell me where I can find this "Screenon&off" app? I can't find it in Market.

[Q] Lockscreen delay & homescreen -lagg

Hi Everyone !
I've updated my rom to stock 2.3.4 KPH Ginger and I'm experiencing this annoying lockscreen & homescreen lagg, delay when waking up my phone. I know this is because of the sleep mode and the cpu clockrate is lowered for better battery time and when waking up the phone it needs time to be setted back.
Sure on charger i haven't got this problem. and I saw some SGS2 users have the same problem and on some other phones.
My question is that how can I fix this ? Is there any patch or update ... or I have to flash a proper working custom rom which works fine ?
Thank you for answering !
Regards

Its not really a bug or lag. It just takes a bit for the screen to turn on. If you look closely after pressing the home button to unlock, the screen is on but the backlight isnt. I'm guessing tthe backlight is a heavy sleeper.

Yes i saw it too it's really strange ... I used froyo before and there it was a faster procedure than in ginger. But i can tolerate it ... what is annoying is the huge lag when waking up the phone after not touching it for about half hour, the lockscreen slider is slow the homescreen is slow and sometimes stucks, it needs 5-10 seconds to run smooth :S, after it there is no problem the system is perfect.
I tried to remove several programs which runs in the background and eating ram, no use.
Maybe I'll give a try to coderom and forget the stock one
Well one day aosp will remove this. Our first builds eliminated the delay but it came back after we included Samsung stuffs.

Oh yes XD
And anyway to mess up camera colours ??
And any app which HOGS all the ram ?
under clock it using setcpu,should work with stock kernel I think.
Try Fast reboot pro for rebooting,no sure if it works good on Xperia's or not tho
btw out of curiosity I'm asking this,why you need to do this?
Well i dont want to give my phoe to my elder brother he wants my Arc S and wants to dump the Neo V back on to me :/
I want to make the Arc S really lag so that he thinks he is better of with the Neo V
I dont want to part with it
Im running CM7 on the phone now
So any ways and means to
1)Make apps FC
2)Mess up the camera colour
3)Make the phone randomly reboot/shutdown
4)Mess witht he screen
Thanks for all your help
Will changing app permission cause them to FC ?
EDIT: And no this is no fraud
Im from India and all phones here are box unlocked
Thats what i posted in Arc forums
Any ideas guys ?
EDIT
Can someone link me to a SONY bootanimation ?
Flash a different phone kernel lol

Oh lol,just delete lib files of few system apps,should make 'em fc.
To mess up camera color change camera drivers to drivers from another phone like Neo or V,like in Neo V with Neo camera drivers(in earlier cm9 editions camera was red with Neo drivers on Neo V) camera goes full red and fc later.
To randomly reboot use the app I posted earlier,it can schedule reboots I think,or just install ton of useless background apps and play some games like Asphalt 6,it will automatically reboot
Also delete systemui,apk and say bye bye to notifications & status bar.
Or you know just say to his face that this is your phone and you want it like a BOSS
I flashed nEo Camerai Fix phone wouldnt reboot XP
I underclock to 125Min 512maX oNDEMAND
Deleted bluetooth and set colour to sepia in camera XD
EDIT: Installed Launcher pro
Set scrolling speed to minimum
I love XDA <3
I love it... download I soul craft tegra version... let do install.. chains 3D .. set to nvidia.. texture low...16 bit...change to night mode..oh crap look what's happened.. fc fc. Or just can't start.... lol

[Q] My Neo V automatically lights up after each 2-3 seconds

I have Sony Xperia Neo V. The Problem Is Weird.
I have updated it to the official beta version of ICS (4.0.3).
Now days automatically lights up on its own after each interval of 2-3 seconds.
So it eats up a lot of standby battery.
What should I do?

I have already updated it to ICS 4.0.3. It worked fine for me. Just facing this kind of problem from past few days.
I had the same problem with GB, and it happened when a installed an app that was working in background (i Guess)... i uninstalled it, and the problem is gone.. Unistall the latest app that you installed and tell us
That also happens to my brothers galaxy s2 on ICS so its not isolated to sony.

Try different launcher like Apex, Nova etc.
If widgets won't update anyway, try to restart your phone and then remove and add widgets to homescreen again
Did you use supercharger or any other mod? Try to remove the mods first. Usually this kind of behavior is caused by aggressive memory cleaning you put into the phone. Might try to reset the phone if nothing works.

[Q] Front camera not working after upgrade to ics

I've searched to no avail... i've tried what some people claimed to hav worked for them(removing sd card and rebooting phone until front camera options shows up) but it only provided a temporary solution... the moment i turn off my phone it goes away again and it is not easy to get it to come back... can anybody help me with a permanent fix to this issue???

Return back to GB is a good point ! GB is smoother for Gaming and Multitasking unlike laggy ICS ! Or you can use any custom rom !
I'd recommend JS and Revo ICS
testsIs and
Go to your camera app--> tap the scene recognition icon--> select front camera. That should work. I'm using Neo V and I can operate front camera in this way.

i considered that but i have read from other people suffering the same problem as me that though they flashed GB back into their phones the problem never went away... as for custom rom, i do not want to root my phone or unlock the bootloader...

Same here. Frontcam gone after using ics for a while. And we are not alone after a quick search on google.
Nothing much to do i think, not for me anyway as i have unlocked BL and rooted, and flashed.
Do not think my 2 year guarantee from the seller works anymore
A google search revealed that people were having problems with all Sony phones even 2012 ones

But it's a rarity so can't blame even the manufacturer after the warranty
After all,the company doesn't have "Six sigma or totally defect proof phones "
Try and ask at the service center if warranty exists
