[ROM][4.2.2][Neo V] JellyVanilla EX 6.1 | Ultimate Honami Xperience - 12/03/2014

[iiandskater]

Note: I don't have an haida, so the screenshots were taken from my coconut, and sorry it's outdated but i'll update them later

FEATURES :

Based on LegacyXperia CM10.1 builds by mikeioannina, and OFFICIAL Sony JB 4.3 for Xperia Z1
Now you can feel the official Sony JB 4.3 stuffs in our 4.2.2 JB core !!
​

HOMESCREEN
By using the Honami Home launcher and real honami widgets with working accent color,
get the real feel of using Xperia Z1 device..

​

UI
I've hardly themed CM10.1's very stock UI into the real Xperia JB UI especially Xperia Z1 on this JellyVanilla EX,
Feel the original taste of Xperia Z1 UI right on your device now !!

​

MULTIMEDIA
Enjoy every enjoyment of your live by using Sony's great media apps right on this ROM..

You can enjoy music playing by using Honami WALKMAN app that have been packed with it's original environment such as ClearAudio+, Clear stereo, Dynamic normalizer, Sound Enhancement equalizer, etc..

Enjoy your photos anywhere anytime with the the latest Sony's Album app, and it's SensMe Slideshow feature..

And get detailed info for your videos with Honami Movies app..​

JACS
Honami theme accent color is a great eye-candy, but it's so complicated to port it to other rom especially non-Sony rom
So i try to implement my own accent color system, i'm proudly presents : JACS (JellyVanilla Accent Color System)
A pseudo Honami accent color system made for JellyVanilla builds !!
It's still in beta/development stage, but i hope you like it

​

TWEAK
Don't ask about it, just FEEL the power of it !! ​

MISC

​

ALWAYS MAKE BACKUP !!
Before flashing any one of the files in this thread..
I don't responsible of any negative things like boot-looping, bricked device, burned SD card, you late to go to school,
or the next world war caused by the ROM here..
You have been warned !!​

[Saatvik Shukla]

I signed JellyVanilla EX 5.0 (and above) with new different signing keys
please wipe data before installing the rom to prevent stuck/bootloop, except you came from JellyVanilla EX 5.x !!
​

​

INSTALLATION
0. Make a backup
1. Flash CM10.1 LX 20131108 kernel for your device
2. Enter recovery
3. Wipe data (no need to do if you came from JV-EX 5.x)
4. Flash JellyVanilla EX 6.0
5. Flash UPDATE-JellyVanilla EX 6.1
6. Flash Haida_dev_files
7. Boot your phone
8. If you get black screen after setting up phone, just press Home button
9. Let the ROM idle for a minute, and... Done !!

WARNING:
If you're going to use JV-EX with language other than English (US), you must flash this pack otherwise your keyboard will FCs

Where can I get correct kernel for my device ??
1. Select your device :

• Xperia Mini
• Xperia Mini Pro
• Xperia Active
• Live with Walkman
• Xperia Arc/S
• Xperia Ray
• Xperia Neo
• Xperia Neo V

2. Extract boot.img from the zip
3. Flash it !!

Or you can use wobzip.org to download the kernel only..

MORE :

• Alternative 20131108 kernel for Haida(Dark Raven's Kernel) (recommended!!)
• Experimental XLoud

Q & A :

• Where is Developer Options and Performance settings ??
  - Go to Settings -> About phone then press Build number 7 times..
• I can't read anything in Messaging app ?!
  - Don't be so afraid. Press menu button, select Settings, and you can personalize looks and feel of your Messaging app there
• MSC mode ??
  - Settings -> Xperia™ Connectivity -> USB computer connection -> Mass Storage
• How to disable small apps ??
  - Freeze/disable 'Small App Launcher' then restart phone (or just restart SystemUI)
• Your ROM is faster than NOS !! But some other 4.2.2 ROMs are faster ??
  - Nah, don't ever try to compare this one's performance with it's 4.2.2 brothers.
  Why ?? I think u already know, this rom is half CM10.1 and half SONY 4.3 fw.
  All SONY 4.3 fw are made for it's HIGH END devices that basically not our device, so they're very hungry in resources.
  I HAVE and I WILL do my best to handle the performance degradation of using SONY's fw.
  So don't complain to me IF you found this rom has worse performance than other 4.2.2 roms, complain to SONY instead..

CURRENT BUGS (Apart from LX 1108 bugs)

BUG DESCRIPTION - WHAT CAUSING - CURRENT STATUS - WORKAROUND (if any)

Great ROM! Just the one I was looking for. CM10.1 works great on our devices and has less bugs.
Keep it up! Looking forward to V7.

One question: Why is the DPI set to 210 instead of the default 240 value? Personal preference?

 

[kreda]

Its awesome rom ! i hardly reccomend it for our haida ! Best rom on our phone !
Thank you !

 

[MiraiXu]

Great!

I could only say that this rom is Niiiccceee! xD, but:

1) Is there any option that could change the transparency in notification drawer?
2) PIE seems not working (although it has OSB but someone may prefer PIE than OSB)
3) Any option to change the carrier label in notification drawer?
4) How to change the DPI of the rom? Because the wifi & bluetooth switch looks different (not round but slightly oval )
5) Could I try to use seeder app on this rom? (Note: Just try )

Beside these questions & bugs, this rom is perfect! (Will tell here while I found more )
And 1 more, could I take the banner at top of the OP as my signature?

1. Xposed can help you here.

2. Hide Osb via expanded desktop and then try pie

3. Yet again, xposed at your rescue

4. Dpi has nothing to do with icons, dpi is set so because if you chanhe it to 240, you MAY get layout issues(although I've never found any except the calculator) you can set to anything in the build.prop by editing ro.sf.lcd. Density=xxx whatever you like. Or anyways xposed.has that too.

5. I am using the Rom myself and well I never felt the need of it, I checked the entropy it was already 3000+ at most times, so if you want to, you are free to :good:

Last one, I will confirm that.

Sorry but there's some question I would like to ask :

1 & 2) Is the Xposed module you mean is Gravity Box?
4) I don't mean the icon, but the switch at right side of wifi & bluetooth

And thanks for the banner

One question: Why is the DPI set to 210 instead of the default 240 value? Personal preference?

Actually I made 210 for my Arc (because the screen is too large)
But u can change anytime to make u comfortable

Yes of course

When I changed it to 240 the standard one, I had 1/4th off the calculator cut.
That's it.
Although its nice WiTh 210 also ;P

The part that I've indicated should be solid color...
But now I have a fully transparent notification drawer

It seems like the part that I've indicated should be solid color...

That's how I have it. Nothing wrong bro.
It could be iiandskator's small tweak to the boring complete black look
