Any ST25i custom roms with working led bar? - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

Hello,
I tried several custom roms for Xperia U posted in xda, but not even one has the led bar working like in stock rom.
I'm now with stock 6.1.1.B.1.10 with Munenjis kernel plus some other mods and toggles.
So are there any roms with fully working led bar for Xperia U (ST25i)?
Thanks in advance,
:highfive:

I'm almost givig up of the led bar features because the dialer, contacts and sms in stock rom lag like hell, not to mention that when somebody calls me, first the phone vibrates, then the led lights up, then it starts ringing and only after that the screen comes on, a good 3-4 secs.
Thanks for your reply, :good:

in CM the led bar turns on when needed like for notifications, low battery, charging and some others. most xperia u users say they have bad battery support so most of them would be happy with led turning on as less as possible

Didn't knew a new fxp was out, going to try it later. But theres another thing in cyanogen mod that for me i consider a major bug, you can't edit contacts in the phone, only in gmail :silly:

Sorry but the led must be the thing that wastes less battery, everybody knows that leds almost don't consume energy.
The hungry battery eaters are: phone trying to have good network signal, 3G, Data traffic, screen/brightness, wireless, bluetooth, vibration...
I think that in the list above the leds of the led bar (there's the led of the camera) would be the thing that consumes less battery.
Just my 2 cents

For anyone that's interested here are the links for SXU newest FXP207:
Rom: http://unrestrict.li/fxp (CyanogenMod9 / FXP207 / kumquat)
Don't forget you have to come from 6.1.1.B.1.54 FW then fastboot flash the boot.img that's in the ROM
Gapps: http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip
Led bar fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38057325&postcount=729
I'll try it later, waiting for your feedback :good:

Already tried it.
Bugs:
Even with the ilumination bar fix, the only color that the leds emit is white. Using ilumination bar notification app won't fix it.
Network signal in statusbar only turns blue if you have an active data or wireless connection, otherwise its grey.
In the original trebuchet launcher the separator line of the dock in the homescreen magically reappears in blue, even if it isn't ticked in options.
That's the 1st 3 i can remember, back to stock :victory:

I've been using the eXperince V2 ROM now for about 3 weeks, occasional lag on an incoming call if I'm in a game, but other than that I'm error free, and I mean even the illumination bar works fine. I recommend it to anyone with an Xperia U. Tried CM9, too glitchy, debating 9.3, tempted but after the last one I'm wary. eXerience V2, AWESOME ROM!!

try zperience rom

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 am not familiar with the kernels available for mt11i because i do not own the device...
I can assure you though, that everything will run flawlessly if you use my kernel for mt11i:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1496102
My friend uses this setup on his mt11i for about a week and no problem has risen...
Good rom.for instalations folows next step:
1.instal firmware .062
2.instal this kernel;http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1496102
3.enter in CWM and full wipe
4.instal hybrom v.15
5. 2 reboot
6.enter in CWM and wipe cache partition dalvik cache
7.enjoy
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.

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.

[Q] Battery % mod

Hello XDA members,
I am using Omega v19.2 ROM and I love it, but there is one thing that won't let me sleep. I am used to Stock Battery (green battery without any percentages), but Omega is using mod called "Battery % mod". Is there any way to get back only stock battery without making any other changes in status bar?

Go into omega files app and flash stock toggles mod
@K0wneD: I tried that, I can live with gray status bar, but problem is that there are missing toggle buttons in notification bar like Torch or Sync. Is there any method to have Omega's status bar with stock battery?
I have installed 15 toggle mod, but two of them doesn't work - Torch and Sync, what is the reason?

[Q] Notification led brightness

Hi,
I've updated my xperia ray to a new CM10 based rom (Racing Bean v3.1-6 N, latest version).
But now my notification led looks very dimmed. It's almost impossible to see if the led is flashing.
Before I was using FXP2xx and the led was much brighter.
Does anyone know a solution to make the led brighter?
Does this work for CM10, because it's made for stock rom? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212944

Illumination Bar Notification - updated for Android 4.3

I made an update to the app, so it now supports the new notification API's available in Android 4.3
Since this update is only available on SP so far, I figured I'll make a thread here in the SP section for feedback on this.
The new feature is that the light will stop when a notification is removed from the status bar instead of when the screen is turned on.
A new global option to still turn off light when the screen is turned on is also added to make it behave more like before.
The new features are available in app version 3.2
The original thread for the app with more info is over in the Xperia U section.

The latest update on Xperia L has some bugs it appears, so this version disables some of the stuff that does not work.
Added Google Play and Sony Update Center to list of apps that can be notified.

That will most likely not happen since it would require root.
Also it would use a lot more power.

Xperia U - wrong colors of illumination bar

Hi mates.
Its my 1st post on XDAforums and i wanna claim that my eng isnt perfect.
I flashed unofficial roms, so warranty is void now.
I have got annoying problem with illumination bar of my Xperia U. It shows wrong colors. I tried Unofficial JB4.1.2 UltraLite v7 rom and everything was fine. I was using LUC to set notifications of Illumination bar with sms.
Yesterday my problem has started. Illumination bar shows wrong color ,when i order whole bar to show white/silk ,center diode shows pink color. Right and left diode are fine, but center diode misses colors all the time.
Same happens when i pick other colors - when i pick blue ,center diode is purple ,when i pick yellow ,center is green.
I flashed stock 4.0.4 rom for Xperia u now, and problem still exists.
Do you know any solution?
I wish you can help me.
Cheers.

Simple way of checking for a software bug is to flash or restore stock ics and see if the problem persist its a hardware issue and if not then a software bug
