This is what i was waiting for ! I will test it as soon as possible.

On what rom is it based ? stock or cm ?

It's based on stock. I just feel like using stock ROM as there's alot more customizations that exist on stock compared to CM. And it's alot more stable and battery efficient.

Will it work for locked bootloader...????

Thanks for the rom...:)

If you have CWM installed it will work on locked bootloaders except for the kernel.

Hi,

First of all, great ROM. Thanks a lot for your work. This is the first custom ROM for MK16 I have ever seen.

I have some questions about this ROM

1) Since it is based on the stock ROM, that means I don't have to wipe the data partition right?
2) Can I just flash the kernel? I'm on .62 firmware.

Thanks for appreciating :eek: Anyways to answer your question


1. You need to wipe data partition. Yes it maybe is based on stock ROM but not Xperia Pro stock ROM. It's rebased on Xperia S which means userdata from pro won't work since Xperia S and Xperia Pro have alot of differences on it's applications.

Although if you really need not to wipe your data partition you could do so but it's not really recommended. But just make sure to wipe your dalvik cache just so you won't have any crashes or reboot loops.

2. Yes, Actually kernel is just optional. You could use the stock kernel if you want. Using the kernel I provided would just give you additional features like overclocking/underclock, undervolting/overvolting etc. and some performance enhancements. :)

The xperia key board shows not all symbols, so i went to the black keyboard made by another dev. If it could be possible, it would be nice to have the xperia one with scro''able symbols. Thing that the size is not the right one.

I was having some problem with underclocking, and is good to fix permissions after flashing the rom.

    Hi guys! Well as promised I'll provide the kernel source, ramdisk & WIFI modules for ultima kernel.

    https://bitbucket.org/Don2x/ultima-kernel-pro

    Still no news with my Pro I'm still waiting for notification so I'll still be inactive in Pro development for a while.

    Rest assured development will continue once I get my device back. :victory:

    Hi guys,

    Can we install apps to ext partition if we have that partition on our SD? Is it automatic? Please help me on this as my internal storage is quite low. Thank you so much in advance :)

    I removed the script which automatically mounts sd-ext. So you either have to put a script on init.d for it to work. or mount it manually using terminal every reboot.

    @All

    Sorry guys been inactive just got sick these past few days. Anyways would like to inform you that I'm currently working on Xperia Ultima kernel for ICS.
