Sorry for the bugs, it was my first release on the Ray, so I will update the rom :) New version is expected tomorrow :D Changelog is updated :)

I'm very busy right now:

- Update my rom for Ray
- Release my rom on Arc/ Arc S
- Exams at school

So, thanks for understanding and patience ;)

Try this theme from Arcatarc: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1533157
...you might have to change the wallpaper to make it totally black. I loaded it onto this rom using cwm recovery with out any problems. If you like status bar widgets you might have to reinstall them after you load the theme.
Didn't work for me. All I managed was the wallpaper. When I click settings and native apps I still get the built in theme background

I just tested. The kernel of the "dual channel voice call recording" does not seem to support. The other small voices heard. "dual channel voice call recording" is not supported with any other kernel.:(

I have a problem!
The internet connection(Wap)don't work!
I have Postemobile(Italy), i have put the setting apn.
It's a virtual operator, use the network Vodafone!

p.s.The rom is slow!
Thank you!!!!!:)
Ok, thanks for feedback :)

The only problem I have with this rom is that my computer recognizes the phone as the Xperia Neo. Other than that, everything is just perfect.
Nice :D

I know, 2 way call recording isn't supported yet..
I will update the rom later this week, hopefully then it finally will be a stable, fast and smooth release :D

This is a really nice looking ROM and both this one and its predecessor (KA05) are fast, super stable, and have great battery life. That said....I think I am going back to KA05. KA05 is faster (Quadrant in the mid 1300s (KA05) vs low 1200 (KA06)) and the UI is smoother and snappier on KA05.

I think the build.prop in KA06 is taken exactly from the Neo, where as the
the build.prop in KA05 has been edited for the Ray (just missed the ro.semc.product.name=). The issue with this isn't so much that the build.prop
doesn't work, because they both work. The issue is if someone flashes
back to GB or to the soon-to-arrive official ICS Sony release using PCcompanion or SEUS...because they will get the Neo release and not the release for the Ray...and that can only be bad.

If you need a stock build.prop for the Ray, I can probably dig one out.....just let me know.

I also had issues with setting the APN (I am also on Vodafone.IT) and I flashed apns-4-simple.zip from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1271508 I followed the instructions in the thread: Navitgate to: Settings->More->Access Point Names->MenuButton->Reset to default. It is not the way I would do it for my daily but it is a fast and easy way to automatically set the APN to test out a ROM.

Ok, thanks for feedback :) I will update my rom to make it faster again like KA05 :)
I updated the systemUI with widgets, check out the screenshots in post 2 :D

Since KA06 was a succesfull port from my Neo rom, but was pretty slow I am developping KA05 further right now :D
Anyone who wants to test my beta versions in between, please sent me a pm ;)
