[Q] Bravia Engine

[maanleo]

I have a feeling that my bravia engine is not working. How can i make sure that it works?
I have tried taking screenshot of a picture with turnig engine off and on and comparing pictures on pc. (Maybe picture was already good enough that Bravia didn't effect that, but i have tried a couple of them).
I had once unlocked bootloader but relocked it back. Device is Xperia P.
Any help is appreciated.

When you unlock bootloader, you lose BE, Download music Info like facilities AFAIK if you do not backup a "(somename).ta" file prior to unlocking BL..
Without taking a backup, you will not get back those facilities even after relocking.
Though there should be some possible ways in the respective thread as for my Xperia U too there's a thread to get back these features working after relocking.

Hi guys, i decided to relock my bootloader, i flashed a .ta file via flashtool and it worked fine, but now i'm asking to myself..does it include drm keys???
I found this topic http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598 after unlocking my bootloader and i'm not happy :/

I want bravia engine working and the other sony features D:

You can get bravia engine etc... back after relocking...but you will have to go back to stock kernel and rom...if you want to you can follow the guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2301489

if you have relocked already then use this method:
1-Unlock bootloader
2-Flash stock 6.2.A.1.100 via flashtool...reboot device and let the rom settle
3-Copy the BE File (file downloaded in link above) to ur sd card
4-Root your device and install cwm
5-Now flash a custom kernel with cwm and reboot
6-Go to cwm again and flash tha BE File. do not use reboot option. Choose Power Off option in CWM(it's recommended u flash sliding and phantom)
7-Flash the stock kernel via flashtool and turn on the device
8-Turn off and flash relock ftf via flashtool
9-Power it up and enjoy again for the BE

But whenever you flash new rom...you lose BE again and need to follow same procedure....So backup is good option...Now you cannot use BE with custom rom...

Thank you so much, before relocking bootloader i flashed the 6.2.A.1.100 firmware and next i relocked bootloader, why do i need to flash a custom kernel to have bravia engine?

OK, i deleted data of Walkman apps, i went to CWM Recovery and i flashed the BE file, wiped cache and dalvik cache, bravia engine seems to work

Glad that worked for you...
In my case i had already relocked bootloader and was using custom rom...i had to follow above mentioned procedure to make BE working...custom kernel maybe for latest cwm that gives power off feature ............

Me too, i had already relocked bootloader and using stock rom, but i tried to flash that file without unlocking bootloader and it worked
