[Q] [XPERIA U] White Magic?

Is there any way to port xperia p's whitemagic to other xperia 2012 devices like u?
White magic technology is inbuilt in the display itself i.e. the display is made of 4 pixels (RGBW) instead of normal LCD with just (RGB)............ so i dont think SXU has this display to utilize the technology in SXP.........
No u can not add another pixel in the screen

I dont think it's possible...u has 279 ppi while ray has 295 ppi...so obv ray is sharper and u has camera 5 mp while ray has 8mp so on camera also i don't think it's possible...maybe it's in the piece u bought...
Some problem with the Rom I guess I changed it and everything settled out quiete good

[Solved] - light sensor in mini pro?

Mini pro has four dots on the front top right?
The first one is led, the second proximity, the third is the camera.
So is the fourth one a light sensor?

Yep. When you have auto brightness enabled, try covering it and you'll notice that the screen brightness go up.

Re: Q - light sensor in mini pro?
When I try any hardware info app, it says I don't have one. And only one I see is a dummy light sensor (cm) in hardware info (that's the app name I think)
Can't really see any difference when covering it up.

I tested it on the extended CM10 ROM by M66B and it was working perfectly.
BTW you don't have the auto brightness option in stock.

Shoudn't it be the other way around? As in when its dark brightness decreases?
Ps: for me covering it up does absolutely nothing.

Oops. Sorry for my mistake. Yep the brightness goes down in dark.
I have no clue as to why its not working for you as on my xmp it works absolutely fine. Its maybe because you dont have that feature in the rom you are on.

am using cm 10 on lupus kernel. does it work on it?
does the brightness change as soon as you cover it? or atleast within 5 sec?
PS: really frustrating thing is i can't reply from the app, it says function reply_topic unavailable

If you are using lupus jb v3 then you cant use the auto brightness feature as wedgess has disabled it in his kernel.
And auto brightness dosent work in the cm10 rom by fxp as its diabled. It works in the cm 10 extended rom by m66b with his extended kernel properly.

Well wasn't actually me that fitted it, it was a repair company that has messed it up, the backlight is the problem, I've taken the EMI shield off and cut the frame away to test fuse resistor for the backlight not sure off what the value should be though, or if it is even that?
