All right Shoe, I still haven't install any CM.... but I rooted my phone ! Using Kayro rooting technique https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=52252906 smile.gif

Now my questions, after root...

I still can install any CM on the phone... can I ?

I barely see any difference on my phone after rooting except the super-user icon (which honestly I've no idea how to use it)...care to shed me some light ?

It's Snoe. Not Shoe. tongue.gif

Yep, after root and unlocked bootloader.
Rooting give you a permission to access your system (superuser). Like running Windows as administrator.
With superuser access, you can delete apps on your system partition, make some tweaks, backup data and app, customized your phone etc.

Wow...I guess we have same phone setup now..I've flashed UHD 5 on Lupus V16 kernel last week...

but I got some issue on lock screen...it does not change the wallpaper even I changed the theme..wonder why ? hmm.gif
*
Haha. I'm not sure since I'm not using that lock screen. hmm.gif Just use the minimal one to save more RAM.
Did you try search on xda? icon_idea.gif

Oh btw...supercharged V6 is mean for overclocking right ?...Is it necessary to have it since UHD 5 itself it the overclocking function ?
*
Nope, it's not overclocking. It just a script that will edit your buildprop IINM. It will make your phone faster. If you want to overclock try using SetCPU. smile.gif biggrin.gif

They said about installing Sony Album first ...I don't know the detail I actually don't concern much about it though..

SetCpu ? I thought in Ultimate HD we can set CPU performance from the Setting  , is that not working ?

I gonna look on this supercharged thing this week  biggrin.gif
*
Working just fine from the Setting. But I can create a profile using SetCPU (e.g. Underclock when screen lock.) icon_idea.gif

i see...I thought the cpu clock will reduce itself if goes to screen lock or if screen is off since there are cpu governor in the setting..

anyway regarding the lock screen wallpaper change...I found the solution in XDA
*
Yup. It will reduce itself according to your governor. But I'm using different governor and clock speed for each profiles.

E.g.
When screen off - CPU 460Mhz - 134Mhz, Battery >= 43 Celsius - CPU 806 - 134 Mhz.

Okay. Noted. smile.gif

I think I get it, means with SetCPU you can specifically set the clock on particular condition right...I think I gonna try it too !

I have my Google play services moved to SD, do you think that's a good idea ? saved me like 50mb of internal space but is it gonna effect any setting ?..
*
Yup. And don't forget to install Greenify and AdAway too.
smile.gif

Its okay I think. But I suggest you to create a partition on your SD card and install Mount2SD like mine.
Can save a lot of internal memory.

Partition in SD, that new to me hmm.gif ...any advantage ? currently I just move my apps using MoveToSdCard apps

I wonder if it can solve the missing widget problem when moving certain apps into SD card ?

I try to use Greenify...but don't any difference in term of battery saving or performance, currently just disable it...have try yet AdAway..
*
MoveToSDCard is exactly like what it mean. Move the apps to the SD card. But partition your SD card is like create another internal storage for your phone.

I'm using Greenify to hibernate apps that usually run and hogging the RAM, like Twitter and WeChat.

QUOTE(shapa2011 @ Oct 30 2014, 09:59 AM)
okay..I've read about Mount2SD, it seem I need to go lots of installation process before got it to function properly so I gonna do it this weekend, but I got few questions since you already did it..

1. Do UHD rom have Init.d in it ?

2. Can we make partition for Sd-Ext from within the phone without using Minitool ?

3. Do we have to mount the Sd-Ext first in CWM ? (I saw the option under Mount and Storage)

4. Since I have MoveToSdCard apps...is it wise if I removed it ?

Thank you for you help Snoe
*
1. I believe it has.

2. I'm not sure since I'm only create the partition using GParted. Here's the tutorial.

3. Mount for what? I never mount my SD-Ext since Mount2SD do that all for me.

4. It's better you used Mount2SD only. smile.gif

Can't resist...So did it today !  biggrin.gif

Everything seem fine but I notice in Storage my internal size is still 420mb  hmm.gif
but saw in youtube and some screenshoot it should have more (my sd-ext size is around 1 gb)
*
There a script to show the size in the setting.
If not, it will only show 420 MB.
But I guess its fine by me since I already install about 50 apps and only used up to 8 MB.

I can't find the script though I guess have leave it like that..

I going for V6 supercharged...but I would like to ask your experiences on it first...

are there any issues during installation, is worth it ?  hmm.gif
*
Nope. No issues at all.
AFAIK UHD already 50% supercharged. You just need to run the script and select few options to fully supercharged your phone. nod.gif

Worth it? Try yourself. smile.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

Actually I have some issues since using UHD,

My Walkman sometimes suddenly stop playing music when I try to open browser (I'm using CM browser) or opening my document viewer (I'm using OfficeDocument Premium), The Walkman not totally FC but just stop playing and my playlist just lost (I have select the playlist again)...kind a multi-tasking problem...have you experience it as well ?...wonder if fully supercharged can actually solved problem..

also I always got "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped" warning every time I uninstall an apps..only occur when I uninstalling an apps..

The issues is actually minor...but still they bugs me

thank you for your help
*
I'm not sure about the Walkman problem since I did not use the Walkman. I only used Google Play Music since all Xperia apps (Walkman, Album, Video) is too big and heavy. I use Google Play Music, QuickPic and MX Player instead.
Low RAM perhaps? hmm.gif Not sure if supercharged can help or not but hey, how about give it a shot? biggrin.gif

About "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped" I believe it already fixed in the latest build, not sure though. I'm using UHD 5.0 btw. Not 5.0.1. Never had that bug in UHD 5.0. smile.gif

Maybe if got some $ I gonna purchased poweramp later but for now I still stick to walkman coz the UHD walkman just sound so good than ICS stock music player..

Well though 5.0.1 installed in mine, if checked in Service info, its still mentioned 5.0 so I thought both rom are not really difference

anyway...I don't quite understand the concept of Supercharged...it's not actually an apk we simply flash through CWM right...can you please enlighten me..  blush.gif
*
Yup. But too heavy IMO. Why don't you try Google Play Music + ViperForAndroid FX? Perfect for me. thumbup.gif

Haha. Maybe I use 5.0.1 too. Can't really remember. I'm not sure which system app I'd deleted to remove the error.

Run the script (the file with .sh extension) using SManager. Then read the instructions show. I'm sure you will understand later. brows.gif Don't forget tu run as Superuser. icon_rolleyes.gif

btw I played movie directly through QuickPic so don't have to use any other media player...smile.gif

Still prefer MX Player though. tongue.gif

I've done the supercharged...that is one long process I ever run on my phone  rclxub.gif  But how do I know the scripts already in ? Barely notice any performance enhancement

Can I delete SManager after done install the script...not gonna use it anymore right?

You will see the difference in multitasking..and no more launcher redraw. There is way to check using terminal. I'm can't remember what to write.

Not sure about that. I believe the app is use to run the script every time the phone boot. No ah? hmm.gif

Use custom kernel. LuPuS is the most stable IMO.
Flash using Flashtool is the fastest. nod.gif

ok. il again rewrite how it can be done from scratch for our PRO..LOL

1. download FlashTool
2. download adb driver (u may download from xda via FlashTool page from doomlord and extract exe to install)
3. download "root/unroot sony ericsson android phone 2011 v1.5 by quangnhut123"
4. connect hp to pc, ignore pc companion, extract quangnhut123 to desktop, select root and wait until hp restart - ROOTED.
5. download "Finally CWM Recovery 5.0.2.7-nAa-r2 for Stock Xperia Neo/Neo v [With Lock Bootloader]", extract to desktop, select cwm1 for PRO, follow instruction.
6. download your preferable firmware in winrar format into the memory card, boot into cwm by pressing down volume button when SE word comes out.
7. wipe data, wipe cache, clear dalvic, install zip from sdcard. settle.
WORKS FOR LOCKED AND UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER PRO.

Sorry for the late reply. sweat.gif
Why don't use the LuPuS kernel only? It already included root and CWM.
Flash the kernel, boot into CWM and install UHD (of course for unlocked bootloader only). nod.gif

not possible. i unlocked it the first time i got it to root it.that time still haven got ways to bypass the lock, alternative way will be using wire-tappings. when connected to flashtool, it says root access allowed. but when flash lupus, it says root is required. rclxub.gif

Okay. This is weird. sweat.gif

Did you use flashmode or fastboot mode in the flashtool?
The led notification will light blue if you enter the fastboot, and in my case I can only use USB 2.0 port to use fastboot.

yes i did use fastboot mode. deng..i made a bootloop...stucked at SE logo..now reflash with ori stock GB firmware..redoing everything again...duno i did wrong which step..it stucked at the logo when UHD finished installation and auto restarted..it shouldnt take so long to log into the system...

Well, that quite a process to do. sweat.gif
Why not install a custom kernel (CM9 kernel perhaps), wipe data, system, cache etc, install UHD and flash the stock kernel again. icon_rolleyes.gif

Or maybe using x-Part for CWM?
