Hi guys,
I'm sorry before.
I've updated my XMP to ICS 4.0.4. I think the UI of ICS is not as good as GB.
- SMS (GB is more like crystal-clear, ICS just a solid color)
- detail contact (just flat view, very different with GB)
And there are many apps that crash (unfortunately closed) or not responding. I often pull out my battery to restart my phone.
When i set date and time, after i select date/time then click set, it always not responding.
Soooooo .... I decide to reverse it back to Gingerbread 2.3.4 :crying:
Is there any firmware of ICS that solve my problems above? or i should just wait the official update from SONY?
just sharing with you guys ..
Thanks.
Which Rom did u use?
I think not because this problem is to ta related to compatibility of APIs app that still exist are not built to run on ICS. Bug on the time I do not know. But I see that ICS is not being high wattage. Because it causes the power consumption of application and hardware.
Official ROM
I update my mini pro with official ICS from Sony with SEUS.

Try flush ROM v2.
I think its the best ROM available.
Believe me its good.
After installing just try face unlock option that's the only thing missing in that ROM.
Hi guys,
(sorry if my words aren't clear, please tell me if any of what I say isn't undestandabble)
Yesterday I installed FeraLabs ICS v2.2 ROM in my x10a. Great ROM, I fell in love with android 4 and cyanogemod, it was my first contact with both. But I had some problems using it, some apps not working, others freezing the entire system, can't send SMS etc. I know that probably most of these bugs already have fixes, the ROM is being developed etc, but I decided that it's not for me yet, this is my main phone and I need it rock solid for day to day use.
So I decided to try some GB rom. But there are a lot of ROMs out there, and I couldn't find a thread answering what's the best for my case, so I'm gonna ask fro suggestions. =D
Here's what I need:
- A stable ROM, fully compatible with my x10a;
- Based on cyanogemod;
- If possible, faster than stock 2.3 ROM;
- If possible, less power-consuming than stock 2.3 ROM, but it's the least important feature (got a 3500mAh battery);
- I personnally don't like the Sony UI improvemments and general bloatwares. I like google default apps and UI. Also used a LG p500 for a year, liked a lot the LG punctual customizations;
- It can have bugs about video recording, I don't use it much;
- It can't have bugs with 3g, wifi, calling and texting (hehehe);
So, what flavors should I try?
Thank you all. ;D
Donut HD 2.2 it's faster than stock and cm and works perfect with good battery life 2

Hi,
Thanks for helping.
Looking at the instructions in the thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=30999560&postcount=1167). Will it run OK with the feralabs kernel that is currently is installed in my system? Shouldn't I change hte kernel?
If yes, what kernel should I flash?
Hi guys,
I flashed doomkernel, booted to xRecovery, installed the doomkernel wifi module from zip, booted again to xRecovery, installed the donuthd, booted again, installed donuthd, booted to xRecovery and installed donuthd update.
It's really fast, I've never used and android this fast. I'm currently installing my apps, wanna see if it will keep great at night. =D
But I've seen a problem:
My sms messages aren't being delivered, just like happened with Feralabs ICS 2.2 rom. Anyone got this problem? Does this have some relation with my phone being a x10a (and now it's appearing in in my system settings as x10i) ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi again,
Today I cleaned up my phone and tried to install donutHD + doomkernel again. Everything worked ok, except sending and receiving SMS messages. So I flashed back 2.1 stock firmware and 2.3 (GB) stock firmware, and SMS sending/receiving worked fine again, in both versions.
Does anybody has any clue about what can be happening? When I installed donutHD (about 3 times), I was in 2.1 stock firmware, root/busybox/xrecovery from Flashtool (newest version). The same problem ocurred with the Feralabs ICS v2.2 ROM with feralabs kernel for ICS.
I also tried to flash the 2.3th kernel n5-1 (comming from 2.1 stock firmware), but it got frozen in SE screen, during boot. Even xrecovery couldn't open. =/

Problem solved: As observed I was upgrading from 2.1 stock ROM to DonutHD. Doing this upgrade coming from android 2.3 stock ROM, the SMS sending/receiving works like a charm. =D
Hello in my xperia u in this moment I have an ics firmware. surfing the web with wifi is very good. Instead if I flash a gb firmware or rom (included the excellent gb-rocks rom) the wifi becomes much more lazy. For example opening and installing apps through the play store in gingerbread is frustrating. I would like to downgrade to gb bucause is faster but I wish there was a fix for this. I think may be a wirelss drivers problem. any suggest? thanks
anyone can help me??
if I install a different kernel from the stock one, for example the andanced stock kernel of doomlord, can I improve the reception of wifi?
Hey Guys, With my stock GB and even with ICS update, all were going fine. But when I tried to flash a new ROM like JB, xNovathor, CM9, CM10, CM10.1 (actually I've tried them all!), after flashing completed, I restart my phone. but since then touch doesn't work at all. Start screen appears and even I can take the screenshots, but touchscreen doesn't response at all. If anyone know the solution, please GIve me a Feedback! Thanks in advance!
I posted this topics to few other places with no solution yet.

When I flashed any ics custom or stock rom my touch works fine.
But whenever i tried to flash any custom JB/KK rom to my device according to the procedure i end up with a touchscreen bricked device.
Hardware keys works fine. Everything works fine except touch screen.
I really need some help r8 now.
I tried...
1. cm10
2. cm11
3. Super jellybean 8
4. bean streak etc.
All ends up with a bricked touch screen.

(I should mention that, I changed my touch screen few weeks ago)
Now plz give me suggestion, what should I do?
