I have an SK17A (Xperia Mini Pro) and am interested in installing FXP on it. I have some questions:
1) Will I notice improved performance over Sony ROM .58? Will most everything work as it should? Will an average user experience an improvement using FXP? Or will I be more frustrated with unknown issues?
2) I'm leaning towards the CM 7.2 ROM and not the CM 9.0 ROM based on what I have read in the developer forum as 9.0 seems very unstable and buggy at this point. Is this accurate?
3) There seem to be outstanding bugs in FXP based on CM 7.2 (keyboard issues, etc) that are easily fixable but have been around for a long time. Are they really easily fixable? Why haven't they been fixed in FXP 103?
4) Why do I need to install Sony ROM .42? Is the install not possible with .58?
5) Why is there no GAPPS download linked for the Xperia Mini Pro in the FXP thread?
6) If I proceed I assume I need to follow these general instructions:
-unlock boot using fastboot
-install CWM
-backup (Nandroid?)
-install FXP
-install GAPPS
Is this accurate?
Any answers to these questions would be greatly appreciated as I haven't seen them in my forum browsing and searching so far.
First of all NO ONE CAN COMPARE WITH STOCK ROM STABILITY ! In case of stability stock ROM is THE BEST ! And the performance ? With few uninstallation of unwanted software and freezing unwanted process you can make stock rom even more faster than CM is...
Second CM is in [development] its 100% not stable and fully working out of box as Stock ROM is....
and CM9 is highly......... unstable right now I have tested it on my XMP and i reflashed to stock ROM in just 15 min of look.
Third CM is not giving concern to problems as they have posted the keyboard fixes and other fixes before so they are just developing ROM for other things ...
You have to hit your head over forums to solve your each and every bug you found.
Fourth you need not to be on .42 to install CM7 you can do it on .58 too but i am sure if you are looking for fully functional os with stock features too then you gonna dislike CM.And i m saying this cause i have tested CM on .42 HU and .58 Global ...
Fifth Gapps are not included in CM due to copyright issues so you have to install them separately ...
You can find it on official cyanogen Mod site or other forums too
Sixth
Your steps are correct but after backup you have to add one step thats "Wipe data/factory reset and wipe cache partition" through ClockWorkMode recovery options
and after that install FXP ROM
Backup is not necessary its optional unless you want to restore your previous ROM as you left it before flashing CM.
You can make Nandroid backup using Clockworkmode recovery option "backup and restore" and the backups can be found on SD card in SDCARD/clockworkmode folder.And can be used to restore your previous ROM anytime.
Lastly i have tested hell out of each and every rom and finally i switched to stock one .58 ROM not .62 as its not global one.
And i have installed Mini Mode update to get widget panel in status bar and reboot option in power menu.
Used system app remover and titanuim backup to remove and freeze unwanted apps.
And also i have used all launcher and switched to stock one and the Xperia Arc launcher for stability and performance.
And Finally ... you have any querries ? comment back i will answer you and DO NOT Hesitate to Hit THANKS button if you are satisfied with my answer and do care for my time that i spent to answer your question to get your problems solved.
NOTE : I am not against any ROM or any developer and please note if stock ROM is for ******* then every handset is made for *******

clear all market data in app manager, ics is like vista (when xp is like gb), it will be slower but nicer looking i installed xray kernel and created swap on zram disk and now it is much more smooth, almost like gb. but games still lags its ics...
rooting phone will not speed it up, if you want install custom rom, it will probably be much faster (but i prefer clean stock roms with bloatware removed and with uv kernel).

Hi Team,
I have installed the ROM & its quite stable apart from the fact that SMSes & contacts get deleted automatically every few days. I am not sure how, but this happens when the battery drains out or if the Phone is low on space. Need Help urgently. i have lost imp smses already !!!!!:crying:
I kw RAM is always been a problem for XU users but it's something new and unknown problem to me
My XU free ram remains 30-70 mb free only even when I try rebooting my device sometimes
I thought it might be due to too many apps installed so I tried factory reset and still the ram usage is above 300 mb out of 388 even when I havent installed any app after factory reset
My XU firmware is 6.1.1.c.1.0 rooted, locked bootloader with official ICS. In past My Ram was almost above 150 mb free and I could play games like NFS most wanted but now unfortunately games like doodle jump too lags
Please help friends, I need to know reasons and solution for the same
Go back to gingerbread

Hm..go back to gingerbread or try upgrading ur firmware..
I would suggest you try Custom CM/AOKP/AOSP Rom like SlimCM or Shockers MOD or FXP's Cyanogenmod.
Do this if you are ready to sacrifice some Xperia U features like Illumination Bar, xLOUD, BE.. Also u need unlocked bootloader for it.
Else you can try stock based Rom like Venezuela Xperia U MOD which is based on B.1.100 which is the smoothest of all Stock ROMs.

Bloatware like timescape and Facebook hog a lot of ram.
You could just root your phone and uninstall them using Titanium Backup
The stock firmware for ICS by sony has a number of bugs that haven't been resolved till date. Mainly :
1)Screen tearing
2) Loss of notification tone after a ussd code has run
3)Dialler lag
While the last two have work-arounds I would strongly recommend that you stay way until all the bugs are fixed [which may take a while]
Now in the case of cyanogen Mod roms if you can deal with low volume ,lack of H/w decoding during video playback,no FM radio and no LED bar functionality in the gallery and walkman then you'll be the happiest person with a smart phone because you'll get 200 Mb of ram free at times with vanilla android experience.
But say you don't wanna go through all that trouble you might as well downgrade to GB and enjoy all the features of sony including Bravia engine working on Unlocked BL along with 200+ Mb Ram free [you could also try GB rocks ROM ].
:good:
hello, as the title says it has presented me a compilation bug when installing .100 jelly beam because after a while longer recognize the internal memory of the phone so it will not let me install apps that require passing data this location, try changing the external for the internal Volf.tab by editing that file or as I call it but the same problem persisted, I should mention that I use the foldermount not if it will cause some kind of bug, but ICS use for more two months and I never present a problem, would appreciate if anyone could comment something about me just add that this happens in the world unbranded version .100 in custom as xperience or Jbeanz not occur roms.
