Cyanogenmod for Xperia T - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Hello,
I have unlocked my Xperia T and flashed OmniRom,but im unsatisfied with it so i would like to switch to Cyanogen i used to use with HTC Desire.
Actually i got not muh time to try everything, so i have few questions about it and i would be very thankful for any advices.
First of all i need stable device. I thought about flashing CM 10.2 which seems to be based on Android 4.3. I dont want any stability surprises like blue/black/flickering screen. I would also like to use all of 13mpx of the camera. Can anyone having CM10.2 on xperia t tell me, how those look like? Are there any problems so far? Any disadvantages?
Can i flash CM10.2, or maybe i should take an older version, like CM 10.1?
Thanks in advance.

Well if stability is everything for you, you shouldn't be on customs Roms anyway, that being said OmniRom is probably the most stable custom rom I have found. If you are referring to the black screen flickering, you can easily get rid of it in developer settings. And no more blue screens for me after 06/12 build.
And if you want a stable cm10 check for tital's home build under android development section. FXP builds have been having weird stability issues lately from what I read.

I think ill give omnirom another chance then.
can you tell me something more about black screen flickering? Which option is responsible for that and what are the consequences of switching it? Eg. No more video acceleration or what?
Thank again!

Go to Settings>About Phone & tap Build Number about 5 times till Developer Options appear
Go to Settings>Developer Options & select Disable HW Overlays (this has to be done after every reboot)

Thats about it indeed, further the ROM is awesome, fast and very stable!!!

btw, if you really want a good camera, you should consider something stock based.. camera is not so good in cm/omni in my opinion. also, panorama is completely broken in both.
so if you will consider something stock based, I would suggest you miui v5 by rimmer1966.. very nice and stable

[ROM][KANG]CM9 ICS 10.1 WiFi Preview 03/04/12

Hello everyone,
as the old KANG build that got posted here is very old I've decided to compile my own builds.
As many people demanded a newer build you can use mine.
Flashing this may brick your device and there is no support from either Cyanogen and his crew or me. You do this on your own responsibility.
This build is not final - it's more an alpha build. If you decide to use it you shouldn't care about bugs.
I'll keep posting updates every day (if there is any reason for it). There will be no guaranteed support and I won't add user-specific features for anyone.
This is not my work - it's mostly from Pershoot & Cyanogen. This build uses Pershoot's GitHub as base for the device.
If you like the builds you're welcome to donate for some Club Mate / Beer and new hardware.
Works:
WiFi works
No more SOD or display flickering
Buttery smooth
HQ Videoplayback
USB Transfer - use the MTP mode and stop complaining about ICS
Doesn't work:
Camera doesn't work
I will not provide detailed Changelogs. Read CM9 Gerrit ICS & P4Wifi for that.
You can find the official app in the Android Market for 1 €:
https://market.android.com/details?id=de.messerschmidt.tabkang
It supports direct reboot (normal and into the recovery) and downloading the newest rom (incl. version-check) from my private FTP.

Installation:
Flash CWM if you've got none (I'm using the Overcome one)
Backup your current build
Wipe data
Flash my build
Flash the Gapps
Reboot (may take a few minutes)
Enjoy
USB MTP:
As some people requested me to do a little How-to for enabling MTP-mode:
Go into the settings
Choose storage
Tap the 3 dots in the upper right (menu)
Choose "USB computer connection"
Check "Media device (MTP)"
Done
Notice:
This is a pure Android rom and no Samsung rom. There won't be any unneeded additions like TouchWiz, My Files, or whatever.
Look in the Market for other/better apps if you're seriously missing something. I won't any additions/apps/whatever to this rom except I want to use it myself (not gonna happen).

Because I don't know when he built his build?
The display isn't flickering anymore and I didn't get any SODs anymore.
How suitable for everyday use is this build, beside of the above mentioned issues?
Gonna go ahead and subscribe to this and see what issues there are.
Not sure how much longer I can hold out for official CM9/ICS.

Now that the flickering is fixed and SOD, I'd say it's well suited for daily use.
P.S. It also seems to be alot smoother, and you now get Terbuchet settings. Only thing missing for me is the camera.
is it safe to overinstall over DaAwesome1's ICS Kang, or must I wipe?
Does anyone know please, whether the cm9 kernal supports undervolting?

Basically a wipe shouldnt be needed. Test share your experience.
Does Netflix work? I'm this close to jumping on this.
This is just a whole new CM9 from the build posted earlier. The old build worked very smooth, as long as you didnt fill it with lots of user apps and widgets then it became very laggy. I have now restored all my apps 250+ and its still silky smooth, i have widgets with sync on several windows and app shortcuts and it still behaves as if it where just installed (empty). this sure gives hope for our tab. Go CM Team and thanks to OP for posting this build.
This build is an improvement over the prior kang, seems the CM team has been busy over the holidays. Smoother UI, screen flickers are gone, definite daily driver material. Will report back if I run into any problems.

great ROM, :good: experiencing smooth ROM, just searching how to translate tiny chinese character in lockscreen part and notification drawer, and make the video recorder works, but its not too disturb the performance. salute for lanhoter... :victory:
bluetooth works
finally bluetooth problem sorted out now it works like charm.
the problem was with the file permission. i messed up with it
2nd day with this rom still im feeling the smoothness of the rom
it is sad that presently themes are not supported.
battery life is not bad.
IMHO, this should be move to Android Development Thread would be appropriate. By the way, how's gaming performance on this rom?
games are playable if you dont install apps like facebook ,chrome,
else it will lag
JB roms are not for games as i experienced. this may be because of low ram of our device
the battery drain is good, so far it is stable.
but i like the original UI XD
I can't seem to get the ROM to work very well and am not novice as to flashing ROM. After flashing, the rom boots up to the home screen and stays for like 5-10sec and then reboots all by itself, the cycle continues just like that. Wierd though as no body is getting the same prob.

same here, quite confused with how to break the lock of the theme, since the theme is not bad, maybe wont work on this..
already got U8860 dev version
1.fixed video recording
2.fixed not stable
3.recompilation by gcc to fix lag,better performance
4. add original lock theme
5. add net speed on the status bar
6. upgrade the kernel and better performance in camera and video recording。
but just dev version not stable, will try later with stable version, hopefully all the new features ported to X6
It's really nice ROM..... Although it's 4.1.2, it's very light on mobile...
I hope mod will move it to developer section very soon...

[Q] Best Rom Question? NO!

Hello there, Im getting an xperia Z today!
I have been on this forums with the nexus 7 and the defy, and generally you get to know all the roms trying them by yourself then choosing the one most suitable for your needs
BUT there is always a general line if you are searching for more customizable roms or innovative, as well as stock roms with tweaks that improve performance, efficiency and battery life..
Can an experienced user which has tried many roms of this phone tell me their general impresions? what are the main feature/differences among the most used and updated roms?
THANK YOU!
You cant ask for best rom cause are all different, btw PAC is more personalizable than others

Agreed, each rom brings its own features and bugs. There may be a lot of roms based off of CM, AOKP, and AOSP, but there's a reason why there are so many variations. Just try them out for yourself and see which one you prefer. (and yes, PACman ROM is highly customizable, mostly due to the fact that it brings together Paranoid Android, AOKP, and CM.
Sent from my HTC One
AOSP-style ROMs (based on the CM/TeamFXP sources) are incredibly stable on this device as the other commenters have mentioned. But I have to say, the stock ROM is no slouch either! It is very close to AOSP and I recommend giving it (upgraded to 4.2.2, release .423, of course) a chance before unlocking the bootloader to install CyanogenMod or similar. Oh and if you are planning on unlocking bootloader, save a backup of your TA partition first so that you can return the phone to stock if you ever want to sell the device (highly doubtful ) or if you just want to give "feature X that Sony added in Android OS 13.37" a go.

What is the feature X that Sony added in Android OS 13.37?
I have C6603 kernel 3.4.0 gba 62870 and comp. 10.3.A.0.423
Is this the "best" or "latest" stock? cause no update shows up ^^
Im having a really good experience and many users signatures show that they are in stock, so I don't know if I should start trying other roms and if I should wait more features and functionalities come out..
Im really concerned with the nav bar.. I think it should be able to reduce the size of the nav bar, enable tablet mode (only 1 bar at the bottom and Auto-Hide it, I have this in my nexus 7 and it really improves the experience of having a bigger screen) Do you know if this is enable in any xperia rom?

The only ROM I know of which allows more control of the navbar (besides configuring buttons which is available in CyanogenMod) is AOKP (and PA of course, but that is cheating by modifying the DPI). There was a guy who made some mods for the stock ROMs to have thinner navbars, I haven't had the chance to try them yet though.

[Q] Front Camera problem

Hi, is there a patch zip file for the front camera? because every time i used other Rom, front camera doesnt work, Only the Rom stable to my P1000 and working camera is AOKP jb 4.1.2, thanks.

The (Front) Camera + Bluetooth problems are both well known post Android 4.1.2. (i.e. CM10.1 or CM10.2)
If you wish to continue using those Features you'll have to stick with Android 4.1.2. ROMs (CM10).
As you have already noted akop-sgt7 works well with our GT-P1000s, as does those from Paranoid Android, and Sapir.
I suppose the next question is will we ever get to see a working CM10.1/.2 mod for our GT-P1000s now that Android 4.4.x (CM11?), is now out?
Here's hoping that those Builds won't be plagued by those same Bugs!
just wondering
if you camera screen flashes/jumps when lighting/focus changes?
i am currently using 10.1 4.2.2, and it dose that on both back and front cam...
very annoying especially when filming

I could say no it doesn't, then again I could also say that I don't use CM10.1/(.2) Android 4.2.2 / 4.3.1 either because I prefer a 100% WORKING Environment over having the latest shiny shiny, either.... It seems to me like you've been 'round long enough to known that much of it to by now. If you like the (Front) Camera & Bluetooth that much, and who doesn't? Then you had best stick with CM10 based ROMs for now...

Same question applies... Does the (Front) Camera, and Bluetooth work?! If not why waste our time with it?
@Icarus1314; Very simple rule CM10 WORKS... CM10.1, and CM10.2 + CM11 currently do NOT work! Its still early days as far as CM11 goes, and People are working on it for the P1000, but it may still be some time before we actually see anything at all, if ever. As far as the (Front) Camera & Bluetooth is concerned.
After all this was a Bug that plagued this Device for nearly a Year now, and it still hasn't been fixed.
P.s. If your looking for "compatible" ROMs for your Device. I'd suggest you go to the Play Store (Formally the App Market), and download, and install the Goomanager app. Then search for compatible ROMs, and pick the last CM10 ROM http://goo.im/devs/cm/p1/nightly/cm-10-20130203-NIGHTLY-p1
You can also just download it to your Computer by going to http://goo.im and "Browse roms by device" (search) GT-P1000, or P1.
Sadly goo.im seems to be a bit wonky after their most recent update. So you might either have to fight though it, or find a different source.
Sadly Cyanogenmod do not seem to be hosting this File anymore though.

[Q] Stable Kitkat vs Unstable Lollipop

Hello there,
I recently moved to cyanogenmod 11 on my xperia ZR, and found it extremely good and stable.
Although we still dont have a stable CM12 for ZR, but ported ones are available, and giving in for the love for lollipop, i did try them too, but there are quite a few bugs.
So, Just wanted to ask, what everyone of you prefers,
A stable CM11 or a buggy but newer CM12.

I am on CM11. I don't prefer cm12 and use it for testing if any one asks!

the latest CM12 build of xenius9 seems stable for me. I prefer CM12. Little bugs don't bother me. The sheer smoothness and fresh-look of the whole user interface make me use CM12.:good:

I am too using that build, and i second ur opinion, CM12 does give a fresh look to the device.
stable cm12 will come soon
I bought this ZR a year or so ago and the phone has been on non-stock ROM's ever since day 1 inc a unlocked boot-loader since the same time. I've tried every ROM posted in the ZR section from the Xperienz onwards inc the CM11..
The CM11 nightlies were also "unstable" depending on the nightly chosen and I often had to flash back to a stable CM11 because of bugs in that particular CM11 nightly.
All the CM builds are constantly evolving and it's kind of the charm about flashing a new CM11 or 12 because we never quite know what we're going to get.
I used to be involved in the Nokia scene, modding etc, for the last few years and i like messing around, trying new things on the phone and im currently on the CM12 02-02-2015 Validus port (have been since it was ported by uncomment because it is stable with good features) and there are some amazing work being done by xenius9, Deadroza, uncomment and others giving us ZR users a choice..
The nice thing about CM12 is the interface but the development within CM12 is awesome and I for one would take a dirty, "unstable" CM12 anytime over a stable anything, inc stock ROM..
Hi
I have the same feeling about new LP ROMs...
We have only some ported LP ROMs with bugs. And the KK ROM are all discontinued.
I tried a LP ROM (don't remember which one) and finally I'm back to KK. The design of LP is very refreshing and it's a great sensation when your ZR seems to have reborn.
There is some problems that bother me like :
- The notification LED don't works in silent mode. On Z, the LED still work when we disable the vibrator.
- The data switch is crappy. We have to press a least 3 times to activate or desactivate the data instead of just 1 time on quick settings of KK. It's the same problem for localisation switch. On KK we can choose the localisation mode quickly by pressing the same button again.
- The bluetooth audio. It works great but after some connections the sound is not play in the peripheral. We have to restart the phone to have a fonctional bluetooth back.
Due to this little but boring things I'm on a MokeeKK ROM since the begin of febuary...
Do you know if some of this things are solved? I don't have the courage to try a LP ROM just to find out if there is some evolutions. And if there is some evolutions, which ROM did you advise me? CM12, CM12.1, Resurrection Remix?
Thanks in advance

Oh! I think the best answer is try it for your self for some day. You can backup your full rom to restore if you dont like it

Hummm
If I ask people about this things it's because it's easy for LP users to check it and tell me if there is an evolution since january LP builds.
It's easy to check the problem of LED and tell me if there is and evolution concerning the switches of data and localisation.
I know that I can make a full backup of my KK ROM but I'm busy.
If somebody can help me, it will be nice.

I'm on the latest Resurrection port by uncomment (5.4.0) and i can confirm the led works in silent mode and the switches are all working.. as for bluetooth, no comment as i don't use it but the build/port is smooth and accurate with good settings additions and very few bugs... In fact i personally have found none..

I am using the Xenius 4th march LP build, and it is close to perfect. No issues uptil now.
You could try that one.
