Original XperiaS system apps : Feel free to explore this, just make sure to share it if you find anything interesting..
patch for neo
- after finish flashing the rom, reboot into recovery
- flash custom zip & navigate to folder named -=codename_05=-
- select codename_L05_neo_patch.zip
walkman & volume+
- to really feel the different, use headphone
- open walkman, play your favourite music
- open volume+ > go to headset setting > enable audio modification > EQ Presets > select 'Beats Emulation'
- press home button to exit & enjoy it
odex script - optional
- use this wisely & with precaution
- flash custom zip & navigate to folder named -=codename_05=-
- select codename_L05_odexing.zip
- it will odex the rom (system/app & framework only, data partition are excluded)
- remember this, if you want to replace any apps that already included in the rom, add it before you flash this zip
- there is a risk of bootloop or even brick for lockbootloader
QuickPanel Setting
- disable brightness & flashlight on statusbar, it will slow down battery use in display
- also disable network widget, some user reported that it is not working
Spare Parts
- window animation > off
- transition animations > fast
- this will make it snappier
Recommended
- use QuickPic & Boat Browser
- it is faster & use less ram compare to stock one
Init.d support for stock kernel.
Couple of tweaks to performance.
Full Xperia S Apps.
Ondemanx is default governor, you can change to another by editing xbin/ scaling and etc/init.d/12modules if your a tinkerer or installing a GUI like nofrillscpu.
NOTES:- smartassV2 only works on 42 kernel for now and will cause a bootloop if used via the scripts on 62 kernel.
YOU HAVE BEEN EATEN WARNED. Volume plus is deleted on installing this pack as it conflicts with Xperia s music.
Edit:-
Since beats emulation is added the standard range of Xperia s Eq will not work, but clearbass does and works with beats emulation.
Working on a solution...,,,
