Download, extract contactsimport.apk, move to /system/app and change permission to rw-r--r--

Contacts should be synced with Google. Just wait for it to sync back.

Tanks guys
Finally managed...
I don't have a Rom, any suggestions? Which one should I take?
Sent from my R800i using xda app-developers app

If you want for gaming I suggest you use DiXperia 2 or NXT 1.3. Both are good roms I've tried on my Play

Are they for my kernel?
Well I need music, gaming or styling
... Didn't found a iPhone theme for now
And thanks for these 2 Rom suggests... If there matches something to these tags above please tell me.
I am noob, but I can flash now ^^

Yes they are for your kernel, and both has lockscreen music controls where you can play or skip tracks on your lockscreen. Both are good for gaming. Both are also Xperia NXT themed. NXT 1.3 has another feature where you can skip track by holding down the volume button when the screen is off.

Hey i have installed a ics costum Rom and the Rom have a livewallpaperpicker but not a normal wallpaperpicker how can i get it :s
Perhaps a good start would be to mention what Rom your using....
Sent from my LT18i using xda premium
If you install 'QuickPic" from the Market, that comes with a "QuickPic" wallpaper feature I prefer it to stock - doesn't force you to crop as much
If this doesn't help or you'd prefer stock after trying it, I can try and upload that for you

I'm thinking you should be able to extract the apk from the jedi x9 rom and copy and paste it into your new rom in systems/apps. Remember to change the permissions. Or you might be able to just extract it and install it.
Thanks for the answer you hit it on the head but now if I could bug you one more time lol how can I do that I never done it before you help would be great thanks in advance

Xperia S lag and smoothness issues

Hello all.
I have my Xperia S for one month now and I am becoming more and more frustrated with the frequent lags and slowness of the system in general.
On the same day I bought it, I discovered that I was with a locked bootloader and from then on, despite my attempts to improve the system by rooting and trying several Roms I am about to give up hope.
I am now with KA25 ROM but already tried XZXperience 2 and Turbo ROM. From all of these I must say that sooner or later the system becomes laggy and starts to have strangely large access times to some actions or apps.
I notice this in the contacts app a lot, in the messaging app, on the in-call and after call screens, slow loading times while performing normal tasks, like in the album scrolling and accessing images, hiccups and annoying sounds within the Walkman app. Don't know where to even start or stop.
Sometimes I feel that it must be something related to ICS but I would like to have your opinion on these issues.
Also, I am having thoughts about going back to basics and just factory reset the whole phone. Would this clean all of the "debris" the rooting and appliance of several Roms could have done to the phone?
How would I do this? Just flashing with flashtool a clean stock image?
Any advice or any second thoughts, or even the sharing of similar experiences would be great and I would be grateful.
Looking to hear from you soon.

This problem is well known... ICS on this device is very laggy and bad.
Wait for JB.

And that's why I always say, Read and Search more, cause the issue is a lot old and there's a plenty tweaks available for that in the forum.

Thanks for the feedback. When you mention tweaks what do you precisely mean? Because I have tried some tools like Pimp my ROM which state to have entropy generators and other speed tweaks but up until now it is pretty much of the same...
However I must agree that waiting for Jelly Bean is the most straightforward solution however I am surprised that a good device like Xperia S has this difficulty dealing with ICS or any usual tasks.
I came from an HTC Sensation XE and with ICS ROMS these issues were not so frequent.
However and I must address this in the topic I have been restoring the apps from ROM manager when changing ROM. Would this have any influence in the short term to the system stability and general speed?
Many thanks.

Here's what i did,hope i can help you with smoothness.First of all clean flash your stock ftf to remove all tweaks.After that flash the seeder zip file in cwm(search for it in forum).No other tweaks should be there except the touch screen pressure in system-user-idc set it to .001.Now install Mr.Nice guy app in playstore or from blackmart.Download the latest xperia launcher v 2.05b (set its transparency of app drawer to 70%,app drawer size 6*5).Now in mr.nice guy app set this xperia launcher priority to high. Thats it now you will have a very smooth rom.Not to mention you can always install the sony widgets for this launcher

Set the windows & transition scale to .5.Ask if any doubt arise.Youll be more than satisfied.One more thing do not swipe mr.nice guy app from recents after setting the priority & also do not change priority of any other except for launcher

Yup entropy works but the zip i mentioned to you doesn't clashes with the rgnd files in snapdragon devices.Also it generates entropy as per device requirement & not high or all the time

Thanks for the clarification. Nice to understand these things.
Regarding your advices I am only having trouble with Mr. Nice Guy app as it is a paid one and reviews are not very convincing.
However I am having up until now a very smoother experience, nevertheless I am considering changing the launcher as this one is not allowing any changes with the icons and also my favourite widget (Walkman) still does not appear.
Any advices?
Thanks.
