the name says it all i have xperia sola Unlocked rooted and Cm9 Based Rom ^_^ i hope that i can update my gpu drivers just for best performance and if there any thing to update making the phone more smooth and i don't know about it tell me ^_^ please , but the important thing is can i update it anyway ? or should i flash a rom with the new drivers already ?
As far as i know only a dev can update the gpu drivers for his rom or kernel...
Also, upgrading the gpu drivers is not something that will make ur phone much better.... Usually there are just minor improvements

coming back to the OP question - linux and linux based architectures (android) are unique because their drivers are integrated in the kernel of the OS. Therefore, updated drivers are only available in updated kernels, one of the reasons why kernel incompatibilities arise (roms are rarely compatible between different versions of kernels). In short, updated drivers means newer kernel.
As far as newer versions of roms are concerned, they usually have updated and optimised libraries utilising the same underlying drivers, imparting an impression of improved performance.
soft brick
For the walkman you can try acid sound mod it comes included or QcAE(currently using it)
For restarts its a kernel or rom issue download again and try again, if not working

Hello People of XDA!
You may have seen this ROM before, but the ports have been messy with files that our device does not use. I have rebuilt this ROM myself using FXP125 Base ROM and the latest JoyOs 1.2.2
During my porting adventure, I ran into alot of problems getting things to work. But after about 20 fresh installs, I managed to get a fully working clean ROM.
The ROM however has one issue. The two lights between the bottom buttons do not work. I don't know why, maybe one of you could shed some light on the subject.
I have NOT Kanged this release BUT feel free to modify and distribute better versions, after all it is open source
Link to download: http://www.mediafire.com/?2dw7h70s2l1u4pe (66.12MB)
Install Procedure: Unlocked Bootloader Only
*Use the backup/restore feature in CWM Recovery to avoid loss of data.
1. Download Ckernel CM7 from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26638116&postcount=51
*Credit lies with Championswimmer for the Kernel
2. Download this ROM & copy to your SDCard
3. Flash Ckernel CM7 using Flashtools (will add links later)
4. Boot into Recovery and format dalvik cache, cache, data & system
5. Install .zip using CWM Recovery
6. Reboot device and wait for cache to rebuild
7. Do a second reboot for all apps to display. (torch, filemanager)
8. Enjoy
I will probably try and port other ROM's if requests are made.
PLEASE READ OP BEFORE ADDING NOOB COMMENTS. If you dont know how to flash a Kernel or unlock your bootloader, search the forum because its all there.
Bugs
-no hw LED's
-low fps recording on video camera. Photo camera works perfect with auto-focus
-waiting for reports by testers
Thank you for trying my version of this ROM.
NEW KITCHEN!!! Introducing... The Port Hub
I have made my own little basic kitchen to help port roms. If you like porting roms, this maybe useful to you.
http://www.mediafire.com/?31r3wz0z35sgwg4
You dont even need to download base rom, files have been included from FXP125 base, just put your port in the PORT folder and use the One click.bat
If it does not zip the rom, install 7zip before zipping!

I used DoomKernel a while ago, but now to me it feels outdated so I use Ckernel. But DoomLords Kernel is very stable and it may run on this version but I cannot say that I have tried it. but yes, as I am using a FXP base, an FXP based Kernel is needed

Hi all,
i am new to this great forum and owner of a neo v.
i used stock gb for a while, unlocked bl, rooted it and ****ed the system heavily up because i am a bloody noob
Then i tried CM9 and 10, Spacious ISC, Ice Cream Purness and Polish Blood JB.
Except for Polish Blood, i was not very happy with the performance of the Roms, but maybe that was just because i never updated to official ICS FW and still was on BB 64 (iirc, was for sure some 60ties BB).
Polish Blood is great (and exactly what i am looking for, clean, no imo useless fancy stuff) but as it is not maintained anymore and the last version is still too buggy for my daily use it is also not suitable for me.
Then i decided to go back to Sony ICS, so i relocked BL, flashed .431 FW via Flashtool (my SI is not on the list for .487) and did a seus repair.
So now i am on official ICS from Sony and the Performance is really bad (well CM9 or 10 was not really better tho).
As there is a whole Jungle of Roms out there, i wanted to ask you guys if you can recommend me a Rom/Kernel combination.
What i need/want:
- it should be fast, that is the most important thing, i really dont care about theme engine xy, window animations from jb or designs and wallpapers i won't use anyway. Tbh i preffer it if it's stupid simple and naked (i use OpenBox as WM on my pc...)
- Hdmi and 720p recording must be working
- as mentioned above, i like it simple and clean
Oh and i have two more question...as my neo v doesn't officially supports FW .487 would it be a problem to use a rom based on that fw and must i flash this FW prior to a custom rom based on .487? (in some install instructions i read that you have to do so, in some not...)
Thank you all in advance!

Hi, i'm newbie too, but I tried many ROMs, and I can say, that stock .62 FW with some modifications is really faster than all of custom ROMs, except CyanogenMod 7, but it doesn't have some features from stock (like keyboard, HDMI and music player), so 2.3.4 .62 is the best for performance and daily use) now i'm on .587 stock fw, it is fast too, but it have more bugs in games, than gingerbread.

Just for the record, there is an official update for my neo v to .587, although it is not written in the sony si number forum post and i did not get a notification on my phone...i just connected my phone to pcc because i wanted to check, if there is the possibility to backup /data and it told me there is an update available (adb backup don't work on my linux or windows pc...but that's another topic if it still doesn't work with .587, i just want to backup game data and stuff before i re-unlock bootloader).
So maybe there are other users here that could get an update and don't know about it...

that's good to know, i will try out a few more isc roms and if im still not happy, i think i will have a look at CM7. The keyboard is definitely much better than the one brought with CM, but i think it shouldn't be too hard to copy the APK over (if not, there are some good swipe-keyboards in the store), same for the music player, but i liked the one shipped with CM 9 and 10 anyway.
For HDMI, i read somewhere, that it is now working for the neo in CM7 but i have to check that again.

i used Pureness for quite a while (version 11) and want to give it another try, as i was not on .587 and BB 77 as ThilinaC writes in the install instructions.
The performance was good after reboot, but it slowed down quite fast. I know he writes that i should restart my phone once a day, but i don't like this as a permanent solution. With Polish Blood i used the phone for a week, and it was almost as fast as it was after the boot. But well the one is ICS and the other JB, i know (although CM10 was not really fast compared to Polish Blood)...
If JellySandwich and Ultimate HD become laggy after some time of usage too, i will go back to GB or just restart my phone every day

I tried it for a couple of days, and i must say the multitasking build is really fast, even after a few days without reboot. The only problem is, that i can't play games like temple run because it lags as hell (even with the games build), only after fresh reboot it runs smooth for a while. But as playing games is not so important, i might stick to that rom, just want to try out a few others before.
ah ok because I do not really react with the mobile games so no idea how to play it.
sorry for my english must always write only in German and translated via google leave.

Ics&jb remix
Sent from my Neo V using tapatalk 2
Ok found JJ's Hybrid ROM and it is just awesome! Pure AOSP feeling without the bugs that non sony-based roms have (ie bad touchscreen) but also not the problems that many sony-based roms have (slow phone, contacts, etc apps). It is not as fast as some other roms and the app drawer lags sometimes, but it is still fast enough (after a few hours of usage, just after the first boot it feels laggy for an hour or two) and the pure aosp ui is unbeatable smooth imo.
So, great rom, i can just recommend it!

I am using wt19i with stock ics rom but the kind of performance coming out the phone is really pathetic....
1. Switching on Bluetooth results in restarting the phone (posted earlier here)
2. Third class fps (frames per second) even while browsing songs a bit speedy
3. Games like virtua tennis lags a lot (forget about high end games like MC4, Real Racing 3, Gangstar Vegas)
4. Battery automaticall goes up and down (screen shot provided below is 100% geniun - swear to God)
5. Phone continuous to lag even in usage of calender, calculator, play store loading etc.
In short, it starts hurting me from unlocking the screen. I am getting tedious of using my phone.
Please guys suggest me something that results in positive. I don't want to divert from stock Ice Cream Sandwich.
So please give me solution to fight with stock ics and not to run away to custom Roms.
I have tried factory resets several times, formatted memory card (32gab) but nothing worked.
Please help me. I am pleading.

i would suggest u doing this:
1. flash a stock ftf using this guide:http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Android-development/GUIDE-How-to-Install-Jelly-Bean-ICS-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-and/td-p/154389 <-- will make ur phone like it was out of the box on purchase , now all should work IF NOT u may think about dome HW defects
2. flash serajr's clean and fixed ICS: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1973859 <-- this is stock ics like ur phone deserves, no mods, only a clean stock ICS with little tweaks (like ini.d support)
and then after all done u may use the supercharger script as it has a whole package (& superchargered services.jar)
- use some ini.d tweaks to clean old temp files & caches so ICS dont gets so laggy.
if u really want a fast ICS, that may also will stay fast u may try pranav pandeys xNXT rom in light version.
Ok thanks for coming up, but I am noob, wordings used in your solution are out of my knowledge coverage
Still I visited that CLEAN ICS THREAD...
So I wanted to ask you that whether the Rom provided there is custom or stock?
If it is custom then I will be out of my purview to install (I need guide at every moment of installation) and if it is stock Rom (with some modifications in it) then it will be handy for me using flashtool....
Please answer dude. Thank you very much again and a thank you in advance....

sry for late answer, also pls quote me so i see it (!)
1st its okay if u sth dont understand just ask or google once, its easier to understand in a native language.
then to clarify: (bcuz most ppl confuse this)
STOCK ROM: what u get shipped out of the box from sony.
CUSTOM ROM: its a modified rom. this can be cyanogenmod (modified nexus fw, google's repo on git); or stock sony ics fw with 1 fixed bug, even if all other is untouched, so u see custom rom isnt sth bad , ppl just dont know
but also there's also:
STOCK-BASED-ROM: means the rom u get had stock FW as base (now wit some mods) (also this is quite the same as ''custom rom'' above.)
okay so his rom (xperia clean and tweaked) is a stock-based-custom rom , it doesent mater if u can install it using flashtool or CWM, but cwm is easier i only aviced it u bcuz its the most u can get from the stock FW without doing big modifing, so its still very close to stock, just without the crap :good: but u can think about it later... but only with sonys fw in my oppinion u WONT GET A GODD XPERIENCE (gb is okay but ICS gets laggy, is buggy etc) ....
SO, WHAT'S DO NOW?? easy.
pls backup ur stuff sms, contacts, etc. and then backup sd., THEN FORMAT SD!!!
1. visit the sony site in link given above download the latest (587) fw(=firmware) for ur device.
2. follow the instructions there how to flash it using flashtool (the fw).
3. after done & booting up, like said its nw like out of the box. so if u getting some problems ITS possible HW due (bcuz software its not!!)
if u want do try the clean & tweaked rom or other just ask (or if have some question).
also for ur crazy battery, maybe its bcuz old battery thats typical for them (such behaviour), so when its old maybe u buy a new one

Hello!
This rom has unbelievable performance like I've never experiencedbeforewithsola. (sorry about no space)
However, there are some issues:
# home screen crash when clicking icons (sometimes..)
# under considerable ram usage, kill everything to home screen (rebooted once)
But everything is better, including image and video quality. Music was only one channel but it might be problems w my earphones.
I got one question bout it...can/should I install Google+, Gmail?

this is previously known as Sola Ultra its in the announcement...
But sola ultra was for locked bootloaders also.
One issue:
The phone doesnt understand when I use the numpad while on a phone call...can you understand me?
Besides that, still great. Battery life is okay..im not completely sure if GPS is fully functional, but my location is working fine.
i recommend performance control rather than no frills cpu here you go if you want

i already included it in paramecia rom of mine...
but the reason i didn;t include it here is due to the kernel... many functions are limited by the kernel
Bro I need to know you have written UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS ONLY in op.
Is it possible for you to upload two different flashable files for locked and unlocked bootloaders

I installed it over LOCKED BL and its working. The problem is tht the fonebook and messaging is slow . Otherwise its a good ROM. the ics tab and grid is a bit old. New camera, walkman, album and movies should be included. A full Z1 experience will be worthy.

DISCLAIMERYou use this ROM at your own risk.
I will not take any responsability if you crash your device, lose data or whatever.As we all know that our phone Xperia SP has a weird problem of less ram and is slow for multitasking , me too like you all kept trying a lot of roms, whether stock or AOSP based but couldn't find a solution.
Well here i present to you guys the Final Solution ROM.
Most of the roms available are deodexed for customization but deodex leads to lag in interface and usage of more ram.
This ROM has odexed framework as well as most important system apps.
Let us face the truth for a minute, all the Z3 ports available right now slow down the phone and eat more ram ,
If we can't have a smooth interface then why should we use it on a phone which has only 1 gb memory.
This rom includes all the customisations and apps you would actually need, after a lot of research and hard work, i was able to find the core of the problem ie deodexing and and all the app eating most of the ram.
Features-
Odexed
Zipaligned
Heavily debloated
Pre Rooted
Advanced sound panel mod
20 NEW THEMES BY ME AND AND MY FRIEND @ska [GREAT GUY]

Most importantly removed update centre as it constantly runs in background.
We are not going have any updates and sony app updates can be easily found on google
Just install them as normal apk.

Warning- Now you can no longer apply mods to system as the ROM had been odexed.

This ROM included includes william's kernel which is also overclocked so the benchmark will definitely be great.
But the question here is not about benchmarks but the actual problems of our device which have been fixed with this rom. Read the OP fully please (I know it's long though)
what about sound? ,atleast give us screenshot
Every antutu benchmark my phone freeze and reboot when i had william kernel so benchmark will not be great -_-
Your ROM is based on .201?
