Hi,
could someone please recommend me a nice rom-kernel combo for my Xperia Go. That got lots of performance, doesn't lag / get stuck. I don't care too much about visual looks of the system... as long it performs very smoothly. It should still be able to run applications which require root obviously / games etc.
Thank you
Hi.
I installed rom from Xperia STE team http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=52295156 on my wife's Xperia Go and it works very well. The only problem was dialer crash, but there is an easy solution for it. Read the whole thread.

Hi,this is my first thread so i am unaware if i am to post my query here or anywhere else....please inform me if its wrong!
Anyway so the problem i am having is that i installed kantry123's JB ROM for XU ...which is a modified version of pipi14's v6 JB
The ROM was fine ,absolutely smooth ...no probs whatsoever.But when i play subway surfers(did not try any other game,so cant say about them) i have the following problem-
When running its smooth,no lag,but after sometimes (maybe at the start of the run or 7000 pts or 1.2 lac points) the game freezes for 1-2 sec,then lags horribly for 2-4 secs,then again freezes for 0-2 secs....then finally it runs fine
You might say that its not that much of a problem but the truth is due to the interruption of 3-8 secs , in more than 90% of cases i end up dying
Its annoying
Please help on how to fix the issue
N.B. i dont have this issue in pipi14's v6 but it has less free RAM and mic is not working!
Any advice is appreciated! :fingers-crossed:

greenfly and hibernates install some app and install ram menage and set it on more I multitask in more addon I installed file explorer with root and I deleted some system apps I have the phantom kernel 1.7 and so I also work busybox and ctrl led to the lED bar that works better
By pure truth, This is an unofficial port of Xperia P or Go's JB port so bugs will be there. You really can't expect such kind of ROM's to be truly bug free. This kind of issue is common with the ported JB ROM's so actually there's no fix until the dev themselves find and correct the useless codes.
Though you can probably check that there isn't any app running in the background. You can try RAM manager pro to manage your RAM efficiently for various kinds of uses.

you are correct,but i dont have that problem in pipi's ROM and kantry's ROM has been derived from it,so it feels weird !
Re: [ROM][UNOFFICIAL] Stock JellyBean 4.1.2 V4
Does this ROM not support multi taking? When I played a song and opened another app (agent dash) the song stops playing and when I exit the app It goes to the home page and the launcher reloads. The same thing happens even when I browse.
Am I the only one who has this problem? :\

Unfortunately this is case, although depending on what apps you need on your phone you may be able to get a more usable rom by removing things you don't want such as Facebook, Twitter, etc.
I have v3 of that rom and have removed a lot of the apps that came pre-installed as I simply don't want them. Also, certain kernels will help, (such as the experimental v8 kernel) and can also be configured to use zram which will help slightly, although it's not perfect. Even with all of the above I regularly get launcher redraws after web browsing or playing a game.
... there's a reason Sony didn't release Jelly Bean on our device.
The good news is that some real progress is being made on various versions of Cyanogenmod, so while Sony may have given up on us, it's not time to go out and buy a new phone quite yet!

To be honest I'm a big fan of Sony's UI. My other half has a Samsung Galaxy and although I will say that it feels much more fluid than my phone to use, I'd still rather have my phone, just working better! Such a shame that Sony underspec'd the hardware, but then this is nothing new -- I've had three other Sony (Ericsson) phones and they've all been underspec'd. You'd have thought by now I'd have learned my lesson!
Hi guys.
as i saw on this threat(PurePerformances™X), its is very attractive to me, and because of this i m considering to root my XTZ and push performance with this MOD.
Just as what i mention after i using this XTZ about 10 days, i think that firmware/android OS got some problems. The situation happen is when after i playing a game(dungeon hunter 4/asphalt 8) with 1-2 hours and exit, the homescreen will redraw even after that i just use others apps and go to homescreen. maybe this is normal but when i saw in setting-> apps-> running apps, the android OS is using about 1.5GB of ram usage and lot of apps's status is "Restarting". the only fix is restart the tablet. Is that a bug?
Xperia Tablet Z is a good tablet from sony, i hope i can keep it with original, so root is not too important but performance is important for me. so i hope this MOD may fix the situation from above.
any successor or any rooted XTZ is tested with this MOD? if someone is tested, hope can give some comment on MOD.
Thanks.
p.s: later i will try this mod in my xperia S.
update: screenshot for the situation/bug

That's probably a bug in the fw. Which fw/Android version are you? I have my XTZ for over a month now and I never had that problem...

my XTZ is 10.3.1.C.0.136/android 4.2.2
I tested on XTZ, seems this MOD is not fully compatible, some of functions like crossbreeder seems not working, some updater script like echo to build.prop is not working as well.
now i m uninstalled this mod and wait for futher modified MOD for XTZ.

Any luck getting the OS to stop using all of your RAM? I'm having the same problem. 1.5GB used by the OS so I can't have more than one app open at a time without the other app closing.
Hi all, I am currently running a custom lightweight JellyBean ROM on my Xperia U after having used the official ICS update and it making my phone unusable (thanks Sony!)
The phone runs okay 50% of the time on JB, but the rest of the time I get horrendous lag and apps hanging. I can't even answer the phone often because the phone app hangs and the caller has hung up by the time the phone becomes responsive again. Also it seems the longer I have a ROM installed for the slower it gets. And when it is running well I can never type a text at full speed anyway as the auto correct gets confused and goes crazy.
Enough is enough, I need a ROM that actually is usable in day to day life, from what I can see I have two choices, either I go back to Gingerbread and accept that I wont get the modern apps/features/smoothness that comes with Android 4+ or I switch to Kitkat which has supposedly been designed to run well on 512MB devices like the Xperia U.
The apps I use frequently are:
- Opera mini
- Whatsapp
The apps I use occasionally are:
- Camera + album
- Walkman
- Facebook
- Kindle
- Youtube
- Google maps
- Google now (mainly just the reminders, although it is so slow now i tend not to bother now)
- Twitter
What are peoples experiences with Gingerbread vs KitKat for the Xperia U? Which is faster and less prone to hangs? Will Gingerbread run all the apps I currently use? Is there any issue with downgrading to Gingerbread after running JB?
I am really inexperienced when it comes to flashing ROM's so I only want to do this once and get it right
Thanks in advance!

As I can see you are not heavy user. Both Android version will do just fine. But both had their pros and cons. For example GB will be very lightweight and very stable (almost no bugs) but it is very old. Like you already knew not all app support GB anymore so you will have better stability in trade for compatibility. On KK otherwise will be supported by almost every app and have better lib,drivers,eye candy thingy but might had somewhat unsolved bugs. So its up to your choice. But im strongly suggest KK as its now almost bug free.
Btw,dont be afraid to flashing rom. Its really easy. As long as you follow the instruction you will be fine. And maybe someday you will be flashaholic too like me! Lol! ,
