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.



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

Its not working on locked bootloaders.....

First of all i want to thanks to Riyal for such a great build!!!
i wonder why you are so genius!!;)




How do you maximize the battery life actually...i cant optimze it correctly by
undervolting.
Can you specify how..im sorry for my newbie question :)
anyway this thread is the best i found!!!

i'll park here


FC means Force closing when user opens an app.. coming to my problem google play weirdly force closed today and its not opening...:confused:

Hey. Here ist the picture with the symbol keys. For understanding, you push the button and the symbols comes, but you can move it by cursor or else.

All of this ROM works fine. Good work what you have done. PERFEKT. But sometimes my ChompSMS dont start. I erase all data-information and start it again and it works. I not sure why. I will delete it and install it again.
Not important, i want to tell it only.

SIMPLY: ABSOLUTMEGASPECIALEXCELLENTSUPERROM!!!!

THANKS!!!

I use it since yesterday's evening without any, really ANY bug, hang, or any other malfunction.

What is great: power toggles on status bar, status bar itself, phone!!! - finally T9 searching even within EASTER EUROPEAN characters, overclocking (I ran 1.3 - 1.4 MHz with no problems)

What I miss: maybe voltage controll, but battery life is average even with 1.3 MHz, so no special need.

Once again: THANK YOU!

Very good rom,fast and nice,but i have some problem.
1.The compass is unreliable,it shows the wrong direction.
2.The root rights is not always available.Sometimes runs not the prgoram titanium backup,root explorer etc.It's not error message,simply run and says "no root rights" after reboot is OK.
3.The acclerometer is sometimes buggy.

Has somebody these problems?

Sorry for my bad english.

Thanks for the bug reports guys. Will try to update the ROM later after work if I manage to have some time. Will try to address some issues I noticed and some on the battery management and the FC on google play. On the symbols layout I'll try to look into it later. Same goes with the sensors although I'm not sure yet since I tried the compass and accelerometer yesterday and it seems ok to me. Even played temple run with no problems :p

Undervolting means reducing the voltage output the device takes on the battery. Reducing it too much would naturally cause a reboot loop as the device would have insufficient voltage input and wouldn't have enough voltage to run the entire device. So guys don't undervolt too much as it would make the device unstable same goes with clocking :)

On the arabic layout could you tell me which keys have wrong symbols?

Example

Just tell me the wrong ones so I could address it. :)

I only need at least 2 - 4 wrong keys and their symbols so I could find out which keylayout needs fixing.

Thanks! Found your keyconfig now :p Expect a fix on the next update.


@All

Guys I need your feedback. As you can see the statusbar is transparent and whenever there's an app which is not full screen it looks messed up because of it's transparancy look. Now my question is... Would you prefer the default opaque statusbar as default or stick with the transparent one?

The preferred look will be the default on the ROM and I'll just provide a flashable zip for the other one. So which is it? Non-Transparent or Transparent status bar?

Transparent One, the grey statusbar is not Bad if the Symbols, like battery clock ets. Would change to black or white ( could be a nice ) if you Open a app.
The keyboardsymbols of the Hardware Keyboard this would be nice if you correct them if you can but the Rom works perfekt for me.
I changed the Home app to the stock One with autorotation but as i said the Rest is perfect

Thx

I like the transparent one more as the grey. It looks better. Grey is not Bad, but the contrast with the clock an Battery is a little bit to strong. Transparent, yes!!!

@All

Sorry I guess the update would come tomorrow. :( I got a homework today so don't have time to compile all the updates.



transparent !!!!
aand thnx riyal..will be waiting for next update :D:D:D
and my apps open up abit slow :(..why is that ?:S


The slow response rate of some apps are not in the ROM but on the app itself. Somehow Xperia S phone app and some other apps loads slowly compared to stock ones.

great work!

Great Work!
HW Keyboard works in Czech layout normal - fn keys and specific symbols such as "č, ř, ž" works fine.

P.S.: transparent status bar isn´t so practic - for example in facebook or other applications the color change to grey and there´s nothing to see - I hope you understand, my english is very bad

    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.
