Install Kernel on Xperia Mini Pro - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Guys, I'll change my kernel because it doens't support 720p recording.
I found these 2 kernels what supports 720p recording in a fast search I did.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076764
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1715679
But I don't know how install this and I have a lot of questions about it.
First, can I install any of these kernels without worries about compatibles? I'm using moPROJECT42 v4 ROM (JB 4.2.2) with nAa Kernel.
Second, will I need wipe data or something like this?
I'm noob and I'm very afraid of kill my phone.
If I'm in wrong section, please, move. I'm sorry.
Sorry for bad english.

Both kernels will work with your rom
To flash a kernel you need an unlocked bootloader. How to unlock is in my guide on how to unlock the bootloader in the stickies in general section. How to flash a kernel is in my guide on how to install a custom rom/kernel in the stickies in general forum too
And it won't wipe any data and you don't have to wipe any data. Just follow my guide :good:

I already unlocked my bootloader, but I did it following your guide.
So, I just have to flash the kernel?
And I have one more question: do you have the stock browser of stock ICS rom? And the stock camera? I installed a camera mod but it doens't compatible with JB. Have one .zip in the xperia ray development area, but I don't know if it'll work.

Yes, you just have to flash the kernel like explained in my guide
And no, I don't have the zip. But you could try searching on xda or Google for it

Is there ANY way to do these mods works in my SK17 (Mini pro)? I want to camera mods to my cellphone, but most of them is for ICS. I know about problems with JB Camera Libs, but how mastero9017 could port the cyber-shot mod to his rom?

In this moment I just want my camera working fine and recording in 720p, but in the future we can wait to camera mods in JB?
Some way to port these camera mods to JB?
I found this a fix to the camera/gallery of JB 4.2, but it's in the xperia RAY area. Will it work in my Mini Pro?

Thank you for your patience with me (some noob) and my bad english.

I'm sorry, but I don't know much about 720p or any camera mods. Maybe some other guy could help you here
But the 3rd link to the 4.2 fix in ray forums should work for your phone too. Try it

Thank you anyway,
I think the best thing I can do is downgrade to ICS 4.0.

I know, but camera don't have 720p recording, and I can't find a kernel who has a 720p recording and works fine in moPROJECT42 v4.

yes there is a ICS ROM 4.0.4 working fully and very smoth only that camera is working still only on 6mpx and not in 8.1
remyICS, AOKP and xperia s port are the ones that I know that have less flaws, with the working camera at 6mpx.
I'm using Xperia S ROM
and only relevant issue (in a simple view) is camera
the other are little bugs of the rom in general, nothing catastrophic
im heading to MIUI v4? doenst look like ics but it is^^
edit: no camera and usb storage sry

The simplest answer to your question is NO

CM7 is the best ROOM with all feature working nicely?

Hello guys,
i want to upgrade my my android os, i'm using x10 mini, root and partition.
i have seen room thread from cm7 to cm10, and i see in post note (page 0ne)that cm7 is the perfect room cause all feature working perfectly, include camcoder, am i right?
so if i want all featured worked, is better to instal this cm7 than cm10?
thnks for the answer.

Yes sir. CM7 the best. Is the most bug-free/fast/stable rom. CM9/10 just for playing with new android os.

[Q][SOLVED] Need help finding the best rom for me

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.

Try Pureness http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1737862. Although it will be discontinued after the next version is released, ThilinaC has been doing a lot of stuff and it works great.

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
Is there a ROM that just removes bloatware, add a few build.prop tweaks, is supercharged and uses the JB Adreno drivers?

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!

If it is faster than JS 7.4, it must be a great rom for sure. But as described above, i just love AOSP so this ROM might not be suitable for me just like JS and Ultima HD which i tried for a while...

[Sola] Smooth Rom?

Hey, Guys,
So I wanted to speed up my Sola because sometimes it's laggy especially when I'm in the browser. I tested many browsers and I think it's the Ram why my Sola starts crashing or freezing sometimes. My last Custom Rom was Ultimate Sola, but now I'm on the Stock Rom. I hope you can tell me some Rom or App how I can have more Ram and be faster/smoother. There are so many Roms and I don't know which one of them is the best for me. I don't need anything other things like Walkman, or Notification Bar or Bootscreen because I installed already a few on my stock rom. Just a good Rom which helps my Sola to get smooth and without any crashings or freezings. (Just one question: Does the new Custom Rom erases all my installed things like a new bootscreen, Notification Bar etc.?)
Sorry for my bad English, hopefully you can help me anyway, :highfive:

Kernel:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux_kernel
in short....system core.
Rom - whole operating OS, with UI, system libraries and other stuff, also contains kernel but later you can flash other compatible kernel (there is compatibility requirment between ROM and Kernel).
Okay, the author of the kernel says, I need an unlocked Bootloader. I don't know which i have. I have the one you have on the Ultimate Sola Rom with the recovery Menu. Can you say me which one i got and where the difference is?
And what is the difference between Stock and CM ? Is CM Cynageon Mod?

Also, official ROM working is far from "good". It's terrible actually. Sony screwed work with ICS and it's slow as hell. If you want the latest JB, then take CM10.1. It works better than ICS (just like every JB though), so you should like it.
