[Q] Haw can I change ROM without loss the desktops icons? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

Hello.
I want to change from CM9 FXP202 to FXP204 because in FXP202 the GPS don´t work in my NEO with Vodafone. But I don´t want to reinstall apps with Titanium and return to reconfigure the icons desktops and widgets and apps.
So I think that to update rom, I have to flash kernel, make full wipe and flah rom. Is it necessary? Is there a method to don´t lose the apps and desktops?
Thank you.

When you update from one fxp version to another you don't lose apps...usually you don't need to wipe... Just install...
So did you try?

I think that what I have to do is:
Flash kernel
Boot in CWM
Wipe cache partition
Wipe dalvik cache
Flash FXP ROM
If I don't do more Wipes, Iwill not lose my apps. :good:
Now, I hope that they have resolved the problem of GPS with 2011 devices in FXP204

That is kinda good news right,listen when installing apps you can install one by one(install one and check camera sound) and check which causes this problem and remove it
@ taaviu: yes! I've checked everything. I used root explorer to find .ogg files.. And it is still in my system.

Backup with titanium and simply restore it after youve installed new rom.
Dont forget to move your titanium backup folder on sd card to somewhere ex, pc before you format your sd card.

Neo V fast-good looking ics based rom-kernel

Xperia neo V
CWM:5.0.2.7(I think)
Hi I am was bored of the stock rom and I am looking for a better one ...
I found so many of them. I cant see the difference.
I am looking for a fast and good battery life ics based rom-kernel(all say night elfs is good) coz load my phone with apps that I might need on my sd(class 10)
I found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1313445
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623940
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1738055
I dont know what else is out "there". :cyclops:
I've patched BL.with (" r ")
Have anyone tryed custom roms for neo v to tell me which one will be good for me?
also its my first time I try to flash custom. I think I've done something like that for .62 GB I dont know / for root trick
(English is not My Primary Language)
Well there is only one way to know. You have to try them all.
About installing the ROM, follow the instructions the ROM dev gives you and you'll be fine.
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
Head into the dev section, there you'll find loads of custom ROMS..
And just like @DeathCzar said you have to try all of them to know which one is better in terms of looks, performance and battery life!
It all depends from person to person..
Some ROMS which we love you might not like much!
So it's better to try them on your own and then review them!
All the best!

ok good
can say fast-clean roms only?... I hate for ex.when I open the dialer to wait 20 secs and then type the phone number.
tell me from the roms had you have tried.
I dont care about fancy homepages or animations. I want Performance .
All ROM devs aim for what you say. But I'd suggest you try AOKP ICS/CM9 if you want most of the things working + speed.
Also if you need HDMI, try any stock based ROM.

and coz I am new to custom roms why some guides say to flash it with flashboot and some guides say only install with wipe from cwm? and if you install with cwm you install at the same time new kernel?

Edit: I think I got it.CM9.1 with night elf kernel ....
the only thing I dont like is "SIM network unlock PIN"
It's better to use the kernel that is inside the zip file of the ROM!
And for your doubts, kernels are flashed through fastboot and ROMS are installed through CWM..
And when installing a ROM we wipe data, wipe cache partition, wipe dalvik cache and any other thing as mentioned by the developer of the ROM!

Maybe your coming from another rom..
Follow this instruction (it works on mine so maybeit will work
Also in your device)
1.flash official ics .587 via flashtool then turn on your phone
2.if your bootloader is locked, follow instructionfor locked
(you can find it in js thread)
3if your bootloader is unlocked, flash a kernel with cwm support via fastboot
4.go to cwm
5wipe cache and dalvik cache
6install rom(be careful in choosing in aroma
7 reboot and done
I do this by several times, but rom crashes after reboot. I try a clean install without all «mods« - but nothing happens. =(
Maybe problem with kernel? I use a suave_v6_neoV.
But 7.2.1 and older works fine.. BL is unlocked.

Hey guys. I'm using JellySandwich 6.2.5 on locked bootloader, what should I do to upgrade to 7.3? Follow the steps for 'coming from previous version' or steps for 'i have a locked bootloader'?

Check using Titanium Backup how much free mem you have in System. If you are using MT15i, chances are that the system partition is getting full as it has only 327 MB by default.

Does the walkman have clearbass working on 7.3?
I use a Neo V and I have a 420 MB of system rom. I think a trouble causes by incompability 7.3 version of JS and suave kernel.. I`ll try to flash a night-elf kernel and report you results.
About clearbass.. if Walkman didn't have that, maybe installing audioengine from AC!D team can resolve problem by adding this option in Walkman? I may be wrong.

nothing to fear, this is something every one faces atleast in the beginning, just flash stock firmware, and redo the steps correctly, if u want a one shot fix, use SEUS and repair the phone, it will do the installation work.
