T.E.A.M. Stock Rom for 2011 Xperia devices
(Arc, Arc S, Ray, Active, Play, Neo, Neo V, Pro)
pvyParts and iridaki
Proudly Present you
T.E.A.M. Stock Rom
A Rom for the Community By the Community!
YOU MUST Read this Post FULLY Before you Post any Questions!
First of all, hello 2011 Xperia Devices World!
We are coming from a galaxy far far away, where and when the X10 was a flagship!
We created the T.E.A.M ROM for the X10 and now we are taking the first step towards porting it to the next generation of devices.
The new TEAM ROM will be universal across the following devices:
1. Xperia Arc
2. Xperia Arc S
3. Xperia Active
4. Xperia Ray
5. Xperia Play
6. Xperia Neo
7. Xperia Neo V

( Devices with smaller screen resolution, such as Mini and Mini Pro will follow later on we didn't forget you! )
How we did that?
We have developed a Auto-Magic installation script that will work on any Xperia device by customising system files appropriately during flashing.
Some of the many new and unique features of the upcoming TEAM ROM:
1. Quick sound profiles integrated into the ROM -forget any 3rd party apps, now it's all accessible from the power menu
2. Brightness toggle control with a neat popup you can bring up any time from your statusbar
3. TEAM Tweaks (customise your clock/date/battery/signal text color/size/font, integrated battery bar)
4. Transparency everywhere you look!
5. Elegant TEAM theme
6. New Clock and Calendar from leaked Xperia S GB ROM
7. Tweaks for ambient sensor, minfree and more
8. Enhanced power menu with reboot options: Reboot, Reboot in Recovery, Reboot in Fastboot. If you choose the latter, you will be prompted to insert your USB cable and the procedure will complete only after you have! As convenient as it gets
9. Compatible with any 2.3.4 ROM, any kernel, any current setup. It will not wipe your data or intefere with the way you have been using the phone so far. It will only make it MUCH better
We are introducing the "ROM/AddOn" concept and we are looking forward to your feedback.
ROM/AddOn means:
* One Zip all Phones! with some Scripting magic we can keep all devices updated with a single zip.
And last but not least, don't forget we have great things in store for all of you:
* Full AppMan Support with 100% OTA Capable, Auto-Magicaly Flashed updates (comming soon)
HOW TO INSTALL:
REQUIREMENTS
HAVE AT LEAST 50% BATTERY BEFORE STARTING!
You must also me on a 2.3.4 Stock Firmware
( This is not a Stock based ROM, it is a Sony Stock Firmware )
You will also need Root and CWM
This will work on either Locked or unlocked bootlaoders that meat the above requiments
NO DATA WILL BE WIPED DURING INSTALLATION!
1. Boot into Recovery and make a NANDROID BACKUP ( This is really IMPORTANT, as we can't recover your data! If the fan gets soiled )
2. Flash the "TEAM_ROM_v0001_HDPI.zip" via Recovery.
3. Reboot and let the phone do it's thing as it will be rebuilding caches and settling.
First boot can take up to 10 minutes so be patient!
If you want to use your own custom Clock font:
1. You should place your custom font in folder /system/TEAM/font and it should be a .ttf file named clock_font.ttf.
2. Go to Settings > Tweaks and check the option Custom Font for whatever element you wish (clock, battery, signal, date).
You can now also tweak the text size to your liking!!

Q & A
Q: Where is AppMan?
A: AppMan will suffer a full rewrite and will be ready for a future update!
Q: Can I use this or that kernel for unlock or locked bootloader?
A: ALL kernels built for stock ROMs WILL WORK on this rom. We have tested all of them so take our word for it. ( yes we are flash junkies )
Q: Can I use this or that theme?
A: Short answer, no. Unless of course it is built of our framework. We have made MASSIVE mods to the framework so most themes will disable most, if not all, options in the Tweaks app.
( unfortunatly themers dont like our framework as it changes too often )
Q: I am getting a FC on this or that, can you help me!
A: NO. We can't help you. Because what you just said means nothing to us.
We want to help you SO much, but in order to do that you need to report the bug properly.
We took care of that too, see here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=18195325
Q: OMG YOU STOLE MY WORK! YOU [email protected]#$!% etc etc etc
A: We kindly ask you that if you have an issue with any of the inclusions in the ROM to either PM me or iridaki so we can sort it out politely There is no need to flame in the thread. Also if we have forgotten credits, please let us know and we will add them immediately.
Q: This rom is stupid, I hope you fail, "that" ROM is better!
A: That's cool, use "that" ROM. There is absolutely no need to report your disgust unless of course you have constructive criticsm. Personal Preference isn't a bug or an issue
We encourage EVERYONE to use the ROM they feel is best for them
Q: wow this is cool can i...
A: HOLD UP read our rules
1- no whining about our work
2- no asking for eta's
3- no asking for eta's
4- no useless posts in development thread
5- logcat or GTFO
6- no asking for eta's

Good work Team ROM, Love the Animations and the Theme ..Fantastic
Tested on Xperia Ray.. Flashed on Top of 2.3.4 on FW .62 with Aier's Stock Kernel...
Flashing took about 20 secs and firmware booted in less than 2 mins on first boot...
Just a Few Misalignments in Widgets and Application Manager Lists...\\Attaching Screen Shots..
Note:
1)the Contacts Widgets are not aligned (I had to flash my Modded Home.apk which luckily works good on it and that fixes it)..and
2)the Size of the apps in the Applications list is partially hidden...
Hope to get a fix soon.. All other things so far working good..
Good job team

Been waiting for this for a long long time. THANKS GUYS
As expected for a beta release, this one is quite buggy and many settings don't work or crash when selected. This said, I am still very hyped to see the TEAM-Rom for our Arc! Thank you so much!
I know there are many things to do first, by I would still like to make a feature request: The one feature of CyanogenMod I really miss on all stock roms is to skip a running music track by long pressing the volume buttons while the screen is off. If it is possible to include this in TEAM, please consider to do so!
Sorry Sir and Madam of developers, is it possible to have stock Home button instead of SE-ball logo? I like the feel of the stock somehow.
I tried the Beta-ROM all day and it is very good for LT15i and super good tweaks etc.
Thank you very much for your ROM.

We are aware of that issue with SE Widgets, it's because we made the grid of the launcher 5x4 instead of 4x4 (don't you just hate wasted screen estate? )
Widgets will be fixed separately to fit the new grid for the final release within the next days!

Yes of course, it will be changed, this was just some tests I've been doing trying to find a good app drawer icon, got fed up and desaturated the purple one I use.
We will include a much better one for final V1.
I have played with this now for a little while on my ArcS and it looks good, feels good and acts good concidering it's in beta state. A few small glitches ofcourse, but what the heck, it's beta.
tried to tweak number of homescreens and rows of homescreen. None of them seemed to work.
I also get an GMail update from Market, but when I try to apply it I only get an error. Something about incompatible.
I solved it by uninstall GMail and restored it with TitaniumBackup from an older backup.
Thanx for a great looking rom.

We have a transparent themed Gmail in TEAM, but it is version 2.5.3 and the latest one is I thin 2.5.3.2.
Since it was edited, it was signed with our keys so the original app from the Market signed by Google fails to replace it.
We will port the theme to the latest version for the final release.
If you want to keep the themed app, deactivate auto-updates on the Market for Gmail, it should stop nagging.
This means the only Xperia Phones that u arent supporting are the xperia x8, the xperia x10 mini and mini pro.
What a pitty
I like this ROM very much and at the end of the month when I get my salary I will donate a small money to iridaki, cause this ROM makes my phone very happy.
My LT15i is like new again.
this is awesome, very nice!
Theming ROM right
This ROM is only for theming and customizing it doesn't has tweaks to improve the performance .right?
I applied it on top of acroniom and now testing
I will give you the result later
Hey guys,
So kssood made a topic some time ago regarding JoyOS, it's a nice rom and some users, including me liked it, but unfortunately he stopped posting updates so I decided to update it for our phones by myself as soon as JoyOS team updated it for Huawei C8650 (which is also a MDPI phone!) so I created this topic.
Features
- iOS inteface (leave now in case you don't like it );
- Good performance and good battery life;
- Based on latest CyanogenMod nightly for our phone;
- Everything that works on CyanogenMod works here (apparently);
- Can be definitely used as daily ROM.

CyanogenMod team - This rom is based on their amazing rom

And I do not, in any circumstance want to take credits for this rom. All I did here was porting.
This rom is for NEW BASEBAND ONLY and is only available in English and Chinese.
Reserved for more cool stuff to come.
Hope we'll get stable and beautiful rom soon

worng section? i stll think this is a theamed ROm. hence it should have been posted here.....Optimus One, P500 Android Development.
Beautifull ROM... and nice song playing =]
I try here... i really like the notification screen =]
I like your initiative to remove sim Toolkit... i never used this :O
wrong section....
its not worthy enough to be in original android section...

No, it's not a just a themed rom. This is a themed rom.
I figured as Sense rom (which is nothing but a port from a rom of another phone too) is posted here, I could post in this section as well.
Also Codename Android Rom is posted on this section and it's nothing but ICS with some new features (exactly like this rom).
Just try it and you'll see that it's not only a theme as you may be thinking. Almost every app and framework files has been changed, so, at least in my conception that's WAY more then just a theme.
If a mod wants to move it I'm completely fine though.
@Ablankzin: Glad you liked it. Most changes in the changelog (such as the removal of sim toolkit) were made by JoyOS team, not me.
Anyways, version 1.1.8 has been uploaded. Enjoy.
The Rom interface is amazing. The UI is different....
Thnks 4 taking on the project....
And to all other guys. . Please don't rate any thread so low...it discourage the dev ...no one here develop for money ...it's only because of his interest so don't rate poor...
And may be he has posted in wrong section but let the mods to decide this....don't spam here...
Sent from my LG-P500 using XDA
Looks good, testing
Well, this is a framework port, just like the MIUI ports...
Sense port is much different from a framework port...
So this should, IMHO, be in Android Development and not in Original Android Development..
Mods, please move this...

Every ROM has "good performance and good battery life"....
testing ...
> really looks good
> yes you should move this to development section, MIUI, Lewa port are also there aswell, to avoid issues, simply request it to our new Moderator.
> how is smoothness ui anyways?
Thead moved to android development.
Any known bugs???Is the ui is smooth???

No, they don't. Take MIUI port for example, it's still kinda slow and battery life isn't good either.
@Jaani: Well... apart from some mistakes in translations, I think there are no bugs. And yes, performance is great too.
I really like this rom, the only problem I was having was the default frequency for the cyanogenmod kernel, switched from 122 to 320 and haven't had any problems. Smooth, definately a daily driver. Thanks for continuing updates on this great rom.

Wont it be better to base it on the CM9 where everything works, and just fix the framework for it ? Because the JB ROM has problems with the drivers and the kernel

And what exactly should we the "users" do? Should i have a closer look at the ROM and provide you a logcat or do you have other testers and you're working on this ROM and we should wait for the next release?
KoolSavas95 have point you can just get the cm10 framework on top of the cm9 base

I'm a nub to development so alas probably wouldn't (but not for long) be able to write any fixes for you however I am more than willing to test and write bug reports. I am learning to program Android devices and am thinking of buying a Wildfire to network unlock, custom ROM, and install rooted apps so I can resell for a profit. I started with an EVO3D and my first one took me 4 days to figure out (someone gave it to me for free bricked and I got it working again. I then went around to the pawn shops where I live and bought 2 more locked EVOs then resold them via classified adverts online. Sadly till I get either another way to donate to those specific devs which without their how-to's and tools I would never have had more than a 6oz paperweight and never had such a great time learning etc... I don't have Paypal and only a pay-as-you-go credit card. So I am having trouble setting up a Google wallet, I am working on that.
Anyway even when I get that donation bit sorted I still want want to help out and learn as much as I can so that I too one day, barring a stroke brought on by trying to grasp some of the more advanced stuff involved or act of God will become a developer too like yourselves. I also velieve in open source and by donation principles. And any apps, ROMS, Themes, etc... that I create in the future will be marketed in the same way. So if there is anything that I can do please let me know and I will to the best of my ability. And as I am still a nub if you have any pointers towards my achieving the gaol of developer etc... I am all ears.
Hope this finds you well may all your bugs be easy to fix.
Even though this is a port you still need to put a link in the op to the original rom or source used. Thanks in advance.

Added link to original thread.
Rebased on galaxy mini rom because its LDPI, getting closer to booting
Also ported CM9.1 from the same thread, it boots and im just tweaking it, plus its all LDPI so no re-sizing issues
I hope u can get the wifi working . In the build from source we still dont know how to get it working.
But very nice that u try to get it booting
AOKP jb boots!!!!!!!!!!:victory:
How did you get it to boot?
nice one
I think he edited the boot.img, but dont know it for sure. If it was the boot.img, i already could give u one that should have booted JB.
Now my bigest hope for your project is that the wifi will be working. If u got the fix i would happely know so we can bring CM10 from experimetal state to alpha/beta state
No boot.img changes, just a couple of libs
But whenever the screen is locked, the rom goes back to boot animation and bootloops from then on
hmm, dont know what that could be. But did u try the wifi when the screen is still on , would like to know if it works or not

Hi all devs,
This thread is intended for developers who want to give feedback on the alpha JB ROM.
See full post on Developer World.
Today we are making an early alpha ROM of Jelly Bean (Android 4.1) available for Xperia™ T and the open source archives, as a way for us to get valuable feedback from the custom ROM community. Thanks to the great dialogue we have with open community developers, we see this as a valuable tool for us to get more input, and for the open developer community to get to try this alpha out hands-on. The ROM does not have the final UI upgrades that will be in the official release.
Please note that this ROM is strictly targeting advanced developers, and it will not work for ordinary everyday usage, as it only has a limited set of features working (you can for example not make any phone calls). Several more legal and usage conditions apply – please see the Important information section in the post for more details.
Important information
Since this is far from the final software upgrade roll out, there are a few requirements to pay close attention to before you download and install the ROM:
• You should be an advanced developer with extensive knowledge in how to install and switch between different ROMs. If you are a consumer without these developer skills, then we strongly recommend you not do try this as you may damage your phone.
• You must be using an unlocked Xperia™ T. It will not work on a locked Xperia™ T.
• You must unlock your phone using Sony’s Unlock boot loader service, and agree to all the legal and warranty conditions that apply. Please note that you may void the warranty of your phone and/or any warranty from your operator if you unlock the boot loader of your phone. Sony can then no longer guarantee the full functionality of your phone, and will not be responsible for any unusable functions or loss of personal data associated to the alpha ROM being flashed to the phone.
• Also, if you unlock the boot loader, you will not be able to download and install the final Jelly Bean upgrade from Sony. For additional information about limitations and warranty restrictions, please see Sony's Unlock boot loader service.
• You should have read through and acknowledged the limitations of the software described below.
Only a limited number of features and functionalities are working and turned on in this alpha ROM.
These are some of the features that are turned off or not yet working in this alpha ROM:
• Google Mobile Services (GMS) apps are not included (for example, Gmail, Google Maps, etc.).
• Modem is turned off and the SIM card will therefore not be recognised (this also means you can’t make any phone calls).
• Bluetooth™ is turned off.
• Wi-Fi® is turned off.
• FM-radio is turned off.
• NFC is turned off.
How to install the Jelly Bean alpha ROM
To install the alpha ROM on Xperia™ T please connect your Xperia™ T to our Sony flash tool for unlocked devices and install the Jelly Bean alpha ROM. Check out the Sony flash tool page for more information on how to download, install and use this tool.
The Jelly Bean alpha ROM will be a clean flash, so make sure you do a proper back up of everything on your phone before you flash it. Please note that there is another software version available for Xperia™ T smartphones in the Sony flash tool for unlocked devices, as it is possible to flash Xperia™ T with an official Ice Cream Sandwich software versions well.
Developers, please let us know what you think!
One of our ambitions with this release is to get feedback from the great developers in the open community So if you flash this Jelly Bean alpha ROM and download the open source archives, please provide us with tech and developer feedback.
Hope to get your tech and dev feedback!

Great work,
A nice general warning here - this is only to be used on unlocked phones via EMMA and is really only for developers not the consumer/end user. If you try and flash this on a locked phone your device will boot to a black screen and you will have to go back to the Sony Upgrade Tool to flash an official ICS software package.

Actually, since this is just a preview and doesn't have important things working, don't link to it in the all-in-one. This is not for the end user at all, and in fact encouraging people to check this out can cause more issues than not.
Wow. Nice - will test and this will be an awesome help for CM10 and CM10.1.

I have no real skills to help but on behalf of us mere users, thank you Sony, for the alpha and thanks to our top devs for testing (and workarounds '!) great to see and another example of why Sony won the oem 2012 award
Brilliant!(excited... Much!!)

<3 the fact sony is using a 3.4 kernel :win
wow.. great work sony
looking forward for this release, hope no more graphic lag (homescreen especially)
Does it mean that we are going to get some stable ROMS based on official JB with 3.4 kernel for 2011 xperias? You guys are awesome
Thank you Kalled, and most importantly thank you Sony, for being one of the very few manufacturers that fosters the development and customization of the ecosystem.
And thanks in advance to all the dev's who are prime to put this to good and practical use.
This helps to have JB for Xperia U?

Indeed, we found a lot of activity among-est the users regarding MIUI on their beloved Nexus 4. From the official release to ports and mods, everything is mostly up for download so that everyone can relish this more-than-marvelous ROM. But there is still something that might trouble many of us here, as so it is troubling me too, which is; a lot of threads, titling differently but yet discussing the same. And so I have put forth this thread, to solve the problem.
Here at this thread, users can discuss or question anything and everything about this ROM. Post feedback and reviews, which are surely welcome.
Kindly note that, this is a unified thread for all the MIUI ROMs, be it official or ports. If you want to discuss or ask something, please put on which ROM you are operating on, so that others might not get confused.
Below are the links to the available MIUI ROMs available, as of now (17, June 2013)

How to flash MIUI?
Wipe System, Data, Cache, Dalvik-Cache
Flash ROM
Reboot the device
Flash GApps
Final Reboot
Instructions by me can also be found here.
NOTE: As advised by MIUI, do not flash GApps and ROM back-to-back, it will cause Home button to be nonfunctional. But I did a back-to-back flash, yet didn't experience this bug. This is my way, you're still advised to stick to the specified note.
Kindly, support the poll with answering "Yes" if you want this thread to be sticked. F.A.Q about the same shall also be updated as this thread will be used on :victory:
Thanks for clearly outlining the differences between the three ROMs.
I've been so confused...
Sent from my Nexus 4
Thanks for this thread it is really helpful
Nice. I wasn't sure where to discuss this ROM, there are thousand threads. I posted in one already, but I'll bring my post here so we can talk about it:
Just flashed MIUI two nights ago and it's actually pretty cool. Was using the new PA with HALO))) which was pretty dang cool, but I might stick with MIUI for a bit. I like how smooth it is, plus I like how minimalistic it is. it just seems....nice. Everything just makes sense where it is located. Plus, I like the lighter color of the UI in general.
Don't get me wrong, PA is probably my favorite ROM, but MIUI is the first one that I've flashed in a while that I feel could compete, in terms of ROM-favorite-ness (?), with PA and stock. Time will tell I guess.
I'm really looking forward to battery life. I thought the ROM didn't make much of a difference in battery life, but so far it seems like MIUI will give me quite a bit of time on battery. Again, just flashed it two nights ago so I'll need a few days to see.

MIUI-3.6.15
Must be the one by Soul_Raider. I remember I had to manually flash GApps, plus I remember something about it being based on the Galaxy Nexus version. The thread I got the link from has been edited with just links to the different threads, much like this one.
New! Miui Official is looking for porters! If anyone has porting experience, please apply - http://en.miui.com/thread-4179-1-1.html
Miui by Soul_Raider release an update!
I was trying to decide which one to flash... any suggestions? I read Soul_Raider one is the most "bug free" but it is not as up-to-date as Datsun, which however has some bugs.
I'm undecided between Soul_Raider's and the (semi)official one from MIUIandroid... anyone tested the MIUIandroid one? Does it work well?

Hello, I love MIUI, but the only thing which prevents me from using it on my i9500 is that the android version is too old, 4.2.2 is old when compared to CM11 4.4.2.
So I am wondering when would you update the ROM's base to 4.4.2?
Regards.
