Dear Xperia S users,
I really love the Xnew Sony Xperia S since I tested it in my local Smartphone shop so I ordered my unit this week and I will receive it Tuesday or Wednesday probably
Some of you might already know me or my work on the Xperia 2011 devices, but some of you probably don't know me at all so here is a short introduction:
I am a 20year old student that started developing for some Xperia 2011 devices on XDA. I started development recently, only a month ago, when the official ICS beta came out
Since then I developed a custom rom named KA Ice Cream Sony (KA = KrabAppel, and I really loved the sound of Ice Cream Sony) I also chose this name because my rom is based on the Sony theme
Those who want to check out what I already made for the 2011 Xperia devices here are the threads:
Xperia Neo & Neo V: Xperia Neo KA ICS thread
Xperia Arc & Arc S: Xperia Arc KA ICS thread
Xperia Ray: Xperia Ray KA ICS thread
Xperia Play: Xperia Play KA ICS thread
Now I'll finally get to the point Since I'm receiving my Xperia s next week, I'm also going to start development for the SXS, but the question is:
How do you want my rom to be themed, which add-ons would you like to have and so on
Some examples:
- ICS themed, status bar widgets, reboot option in power menu and on screen button enabler
- Based on Sony ICS beta theme, framework mods like AOSP lockscreen etc, auto-rotating home
- ...
This information would really be useful, so i can prepare my rom as much as possible to the general needs of the Xperia S users
The Xperia S isn't a cheap phone, so if anyone feels free to donate a little bit amount I can increase my resources for the rom (and maybe kernel) development of Xperia S. Don't donate because I post this, only if you really want to support me
Thank you for you're support and trust in all the devs
hello,
AOSP lockscreen: will lost the notification lockscreen???
can you make "volume button" enable wake up screen???
thanks
-ICS and Sony ICS lockscreen.
-Notifications for emails, messages, lost calls, etc.
-Change track via long pressing volume button.
-ICS or Sony ICS theme.
-Power widgets on status bar
-Brightness slider on status bar
-Weather on status bar (just like AOKP)
Well, I can remember just this right now. If I think on something else, I will tell.

I don't know about the AOSP lockscreen and notifications, the framework of Xperia S is pretty different so I'll have to do some testing with it first before I can fully start developing without a lot of mistakes

Ok, I'll try to do as many as possible I like Sony ICS theme, so I could do that probably
how about the recovery option and i like the ics option
Make it fast,smooth,stable and with a better battery life would be really awesome
I'd like stock android, with no addons what so ever

That's how I use my own rom without add-ons
I am not sure how far it's possible to do so, but i would appreciate a MIUI port for our Xperia S
The work you've done on the Arc looks great, I didn't need to look at the others! That sort of development for our great phone will be much appreciated and I will very much look forward to your work!

I'm not into MIUI development but I'm sure someone else will make an MIUI rom for Xperia S

Thanks I will receive my Xperia S tomorrow or Wednesday
Gamer OS -stripped as much as possible and graphically optimalise,
tweak tweak for gaming ??
more free ram
battery life improved
improved hardware accelation !!
Possibly 2.0ghz overclocking
"something like wolf-rom(x10) you like particular tweak, app,wigdet you download a package-not much preinstalled"
Improved music output, automatic album art download, burst mode in camera, track switching with volume keys, option to select number of home screens...
Thank you.
Change the volume rocker, so it will both have a vibrate and no-vibrate state at the bottom. This is default in htc roms, and for example cyanogenmod has an option for this in the settings.

I believe this doesn't work in stock player at all if you unlock bootloader, because DRM keys are lost.

Thanks for the replies
I am a little confused... Your stock version have a mixture of Sony ICS and vanilla ICS theme? If I'm right, you should do small add ons with each part of the themed things (like one for SystemUI, other for MMS, other for lockscreen, for example). Got it?
Hey guys , i just came across a wonderful ROM named Z1 honami exclusive edition by Saqib Nazm for my Xperia mini pro sk17i..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2385612
it is simply the best ROM i've come across till date for my device in terms of every factor that can be considered for a ROM to be legendary....it works on other 2011 xperia devices too
BUT there's only one and only one problem....my screen no more orients itself to landscape mode on hardware keyboard slideout
in case of any other ROM i would have just flashed my phone back to stock as the beauty of the Xperia mini pro lies in premium feel of its hardware keyboard but this ROM is so epic that first time in my life i'm compromising and trying to find a fix to the problem...but nothing's working..!!!
PLEASE HELP

Hello! I also have this problem in the ROM. Please fix the link that you post because the link that you post is for the Honami ROM for Arc/S Pro not for the Xperia MDPI. I have already reported this landscape problem on the thread page of the Honami ROM for Xperia MDPI.
If you have a problem about a ROM, please directly post your problem on the thread page of the ROM that you are currently using to get a reply or a fix from the developer.

thanks for the correction:good:...well i did post my issue in in the Bug reports menu...infact many have....but there's no fix posted till date i assume..:crying:
and i'm a new user so i cannot post to development forums.....
anyways i just wish two things with this ROM...
.
1st...the landscape mode fix on hardware keyboard
and
2nd...the camera app of xperia z1 honami....<3
1. Aneel, the developer of the ROM, said that they are starting to work with the Landscape mode fix. The problem is related to the framework that they used on their ROM.
2. I think they can't port that camera app. I have read somewhere here that the Walkman app of Z1 Honami is hard to port for ICS because it has a higher SDK version. Same thing for the camera app of Z1 Honami. If there is a very highly professional developer that knows everything about programming then maybe the camera app can be ported.

Thanks for the info,bro...
too bad the walkman and camera are hard to port....!!!!
let's hope to get a fix soon...
but anyways the walkman v6 in this ROM is buggy too.....it lags,sometimes hangs;downloading music info is never successfully completed,it suddenly stops the playback randomly....
i've tried almost every available flashable walkman v7.9.A.0.1 on my phone and had to restore my phone several times as i assumed the honami rom to be deodexed as there are no odex files in system/apps but the funny thing i discovered about this ROM is that the apps are deodexed but the framework is not...!!!
i tried xUltimate v2.4.2 and Universal deodexer and many more things.....nothing seems to work....
Can you help me with this?
Some one who can tell me, what's this, it's shows up in sony album on Z2
And it's not on my z1???
Sorry forgot to add picture
Xperia Share is unique to the Z2 and Z3 as far as I now, since the Z2 and 3 run a newer UI.
