Problem with Chainfire 3d - Sony Xperia U - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

When I Install the Chainfire' s driver, the lockscreen animation doesn't work fine. I mean, when i press the lockscreen botton, instead of "close" the screen, the display it's like the old Tv when there wasn' t signal. The version of Chainfire 3d it's the v33. Sorry for my English

Same here in my Xperia Sola, else chainfire works like a dream, played a few quallcom games which worked perfectly....but I uninstalled the app because of that "noisy-black and white" animation on screen on-off...

I experienced the same thing with stock .564 firmware and advanced stock kernel. now i'm using .184 firmware, haven't checked if firmware change can eliminate the issue..

So there isn't a solution? What a shame...

what makes me curious is that this issue does not happen in every unit. a guy in a local forum in my country said that he have no such issue.

Nice work. Installed on my arc but 2 problems.
First, the widget size is very small i think. In the screenshot you can see the different.
Second, pushing the widget does effect nothing. In the app i can enable the flashligt without a problem.
Please fix this

I downloaded the one on the top (XperiaLED rablexModL5 en.apk)
No small widget and no issues with widget.
I think YOU are the problem, not your Arc or any of this programs
yes, you´re right After rebooting my arc everything is fine! Don´t know what was wrong but now it´s perfect!

Well, it is possible of course, but I see no need cause the new version brings nothing useful for us.
In fact I'd suggest they DON'T update as the new version shuts the LED off when the screen turns off, which is stupid and annoying. This version works perfect.
This is running superb on my Arc S and it looks just like the SE on/off widgets.
Does anyone know of a similar widget to toggle auto-sync on/off? SE supply one to toggle data off but that means I can't then manually update.

I use it on my Ray an its fantastic!
I used Android Flashlight befor and now I use your mod. Very thanks!
Using it on Ray, this is fantastic. The fact that there was no torch app that looked anything like the stock buttons was driving me mad. This solves the problem.
Thank you!

[Q] [QUE] Problems or bugs

After updating with ICS 4.0.3 thee is no application in-built for CAMERA . . .
And also wi-fi is not working . so replay solution ..
There isnt a solution yet. The ROM is in development and it might take some time before its ready, i'd check back in about a month.
There are other really good gingerbread based ROMs though. I'm back on ArcMini, its working brilliantly.

First of all, it is mentioned by the thread owner who released ics 4.0.3 that there will be bugs and problems and this is not the final product. then why are you downloading and complaining about it? please wait for the final rom or just keep quiet.
Im sorry to say that but you should have read the whole topic before you flashed to ics. Did you read that in the first place?
MiniCM7Pro V21
Hi guys!
I have installed MiniCM7Pro_V21 on my x10 mini pro and i have a question?
The buttons on my phone does not look like the picture on the forumsite for MiniCM7Pro. (Can´t post link to picture because this is my first post...)
I still looks like the SE buttons, you know with four optional buttons in the corners. It does not help if I change theame.
Do i need to change framework somehow or what do i do?

Really you should post this in the Q&A section but, since I'm here..
It sounds like you're using the SE launcher. Launchers are the apps that you can access the app drawer from, see your widgets on, set wallpapers for, etc.
Have a look on the Market for an alternative, there are several out there. Or use ADW, which comes already with your rom. If you press the Home button and it doesn't ask you to choose between two different launchers, that means you've already selected the SE one)
Head into your settings app, then:
"Application Settings"
"Manage Applications"
Choose "All" from the four options near the top of the screen.
Scroll down and press on "Sony Ericsson Home".
Press on "Clear Defaults".
Back out of the app and press the Home button.
This will give you the option to use the SE launcher or ADW. Select ADW and...there you go!

Downloading. Will let you know in a little while
Thanks. Nice ROM. Icons in the status bar are blurry though. Apart from that, working fine for now.
Also, what file in the framework do I need to change to change the background that shows when we are in the Settings menu etc? Kinda obtrusive the default ones, so wanted to change them.
EDIT: Superuser is denying all apps root access, without any prompt showing up. Tried with both Titanium and Root Explorer.

The icons in the status bar look blurry because i did't have time to resize them.I promise that this will be fixed in future versions.
Maybe the problem with the su apk is caused by the kernel you are using.I never encountered such a problem when i run the tests but i was using my kernel instead.
Please, if you find any other bug, let me know...

I'm going to flash it today, or at least tommorow, and see how the rom is rolling at neo v. Going to report back soon
Edit 1: Okey, I see I have 2 launchers installed at begining. So I'm able to chose which one I would like to use, and just uninstall the another one
Edit 2: A little feedback The picture of background in settings menu is not so good in my opinion, it would be nice if there would be an option that will replace the image as just black background.. And second, the lack of OC option on your kernel

If you want, you can install another stock based kernel with OC.The rom will work fine with it.You will never get OC from my kernel.It's a way of thinking.I do not see it as a disadvantage.
If you want you can install another theme and change the settings background.
Please give some feedback on some other important issues like stability, speed, smoother scrolling, better touchscreen responsiveness, etc in comparison with stock firmware...
By the way, the resize of the icons is almost ready and i will probably release a flashable zip with the fix soon enough...
regarding the kernel.... if we use kernel nightelf is not better then kernel 62???what i mean if i using nightelf kernel can i just flash the u're rom??????

Hybrom is built without a boot image, and it can be installed on an any stock based kernel.
The choice about what kernel you will install is up to you.I prefer kernels without overclocking.
In the end you will have more disadvantages from an overclocked kernel (overheating, instability) than advantages (speed)
I agree;i use boof kernel and everythings work perfect.
NEO camera patch http://www.mediafire.com/?i23lamsmaaqb6iq
I always wondered how will Diezel's Sony Sketch font look on our large screens
p.s. that font is not used in SE logo, it's created later based on look of SE logo
SE logo was made just as a logo, it was drawn.
To be honest it's a bit thin Not sure if we(on android) can change size,formatting of fonts.

Looking forward to see that, as when using this rom I feel somehow strange, like things aren't properly sized
Also in sms, icon in upper right part, for new sms, is a bit to large. Same thing happened when I tried using conv. app from xperia S.

-stability, hm ok didn't experience any problem.
-speed, speed of each app is ok, but switching between apps is slow, I would say to slow. for example when i receive sms and pull down status bar, click on it, sometimes it need 2,3 second to switch to sms.
-smooth scrolling is ok (why just ok? well maybe didn't pay much attention to that )
-touchscreen responsiveness, well I noticed one annoying thing, usually on stock, when light turns off ->touchscreen is off, and you can wake your phone with only hard keys. In your rom you can wake phone even touching on (turned off)screen which lasts only 2-3 second after it turns off. That wouldn't be a big problem if not only you wake it up but you actually press something
Also I noticed low number of free ram, I guess it's because of launcher and maybe other stuff you used.

About sonysketch font:I really didn't know which of the two came first.The logo or the font...
Useful information.
About icon resizing:Icons in the SystemUI.apk are resized and a flashable zip containing the new resized SystemUI.apk is uploaded on the first page of this thread under the "USEFUL CWM FLASHABLE ZIPS" section(SystemUI.apk is the one responsible mostly for the icons in your status bar).Framework-res.apk is now under resizing and it's half done.One or two more apks. and everything will be o.k.
About conversations.apk:The icon (for new conversation) is like the one from xperia s because this is the xperia s conversations.apk.It has nothing to do with resizing...
About screen going off:The screen after about 20sec gets dimmer.It doesn't turn off.It turns off after 30 sec.In this 10sec interval you have the chance to fully wake your screen only by touching it.After the 30sec have passed you will have to press the (hard) home key to wake your screen.
About free ram:Please give me some numbers... (I already have improved this feature in the upcoming v16)
P.S. i do not own an mt11i,so testing is very hard (a friend of mine owns an mt11i,but i do not see him often).So, posts like the previous one, are very useful for me.Please give me some more feedback and i may be able to bring neohybrom at the levels of the original hybrom...

About screen, if you didn't changed levels, it should dim like stock, right? I know about that, but I'm not talking about that.
I'm talking that when screen goes off(really off, no dim) you can still wake up phone by touching screen.
About rams, hm, I moved back to stock, so can't check real numbers, but I remember after some time it gets down to ~70-80, it doesn't get freeup, and i didn't even used much apps, regular calls,sms,gtalk, 1-2 times browser.
only after I use one of those widgets from GO(sorry don't know name, as I don't use it usually) to kill apps, it only goes to ~130.

U-Disco - Entertaining Lights in the Illumination Bar - now also for SP

I have added support for Xperia SP to U-Disco so I figured I will mention that in here too.
The original thread is over in the Xperia U forum http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1970167
It will give you different light patterns in the illumination bar.
Some of them require music to work, other will light up anyway.
It only works on Xperia U, Xperia P or Xperia SP, and it also requires ROOT to get individual access to the LEDs.
Get the free version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rundgong.udisco
The pro version has more colors and can run in the background. Otherwise they are the same.
Get the pro version here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rundgong.udiscopro
I have not tried it on SP myself but let me know if you find any bugs. I'll try to fix them.
Thanks to @DooMLoRD for describing the leds in another thread, and @sagar29 for testing it on SP
It works in my sp and it looks amazing thanks

Hi, leds on SP are surely better supported now: the "preview" during choosing the color works now, and I guess it starts for example the strobe a bit faster (still over 1 second delay after setting the color).
Rainbow and others where we can't choose a color are running instantly.
Hi! Thanks for the great app. There's an issue though. Just copying my own review from Play Market:
Doesn't work in Walkman with headphones plugged in. If you plug out the headphones and then plug them in again, LEDs begin to flash until a song changes. Would be great if you could fix the bug. Best regards.

I have the latest firmware installed (254); no sound mods. Tried to soft/hard reset the phone also, but that hasn't changed anything. Discolight by Sagar Kar has no such issue (but seems a bit buggy in general, that's why I'd like this app to be fully-functional). Can anyone confirm the bug? Or that's me who's so «lucky»?

I don't see that behavior. But there will be strange effects if both the walkman app and this app writes to the LEDs at the same time.
There may be flickering and maybe odd colors as well. Otherwise I think it works.

OK, I got it. Today I had reinstalled FW from SUS with full wipes, then installed ES Explorer and U-Disco. As a last step I disabled "Music beat light effect". The general order of actions is following: 1. I launch U-Disco, choose a Coloured beat with any colour, and Speakers as an Audio source; 2. I launch Walkman and play any song – LEDs are flashing; 3. I stop the playback in Walkman and open any other song in ES Explorer – it works as well; 4. I stop the song and quit U-Disco, plug in headphones, then repeat the first step; 5. I launch Walkman and play any song – nothing happens; 6. I switch to ES Explorer and try my luck there – no success; 7. Then I return to Walkman, start playback and then plug the headphones out – LEDs still aren't flashing; 8. I simply switch to any other song inside Walkman and voila! Everything works as a charm again even after plugging the headphones back in! 9. But when I switch the song once more with the hp's inserted – LEDs flicker several times and die out. I've tried any possible variations, different headphones. Tried to reset the phone after installing and so on – nope.
What can be the reason of such a behaviour? Something is obviously not working as it should (quite possibly it's my phone) if you experience no such issue, but what? I would be endlessly thankful for any ideas or suggestions.

Good description. Now I can reproduce it also.
I have no idea why it behaves like that though. It's not like that on Xperia U.
It might be a bug in the audio framework, but I really don't know.
thx.. its work and awesome
Version 1.7 is out.
It adds some effects that use the camera flash instead of the illumination bar.
Using the camera flash does not require root, and it will also work on most other devices as well.
The new effects are are a flash strobe light and also lighting the flash according to the beat of the music.

It seems like the LEDS only work when music goes out throught internal speaker. When you have Headphones or bluetooth speaker connected, no LED will light up. With and Without U-disco
